[0002] Oxalic acid, also known as oxalic acid, is an important organic chemical raw material. It is widely used in fine chemicals to prepare various dyes, medicines, important solvents, extractants and various intermediates. At present, the methods for industrial production of oxalic acid mainly include sodium formate method, oxidation method, carbonyl synthesis method, ethylene glycol oxidation method, propylene oxidation method, carbon monoxide coupling method, etc. Among them, methyl nitrite, as one of the intermediate products of carbon monoxide coupling method, is also the raw material for producing the intermediate product dimethyl oxalate. In the oxalic acid production device, the content of methyl nitrite is the key factor to achieve stable operation of the whole process. Therefore, it is necessary to detect and analyze the circulating gas in the oxalic acid production device in real time.
[0003] At present, the traditional sampling and analysis method requires the recycling gas generated in the oxalic acid production device to be collected, and then sent to the laboratory for detection and analysis using chromatography, and the production process indicators are adjusted based on the data obtained. However, the biggest drawback of this method is that the cycle is too long. One detection takes at least half an hour, which makes the data have a large lag, and cannot provide accurate data in real time. It is impossible to provide real-time data guarantee for the exploration of process indicators, and it can no longer meet the needs of modern industrial production. In addition, the frequent collection and transportation of recycled gas also poses certain safety hazards. Utility Model Content

[0018] As shown in the figure, in this embodiment, an online detection system for circulating gas of an oxalic acid production device includes a gas-liquid separation tank 1, which is connected to the oxalic acid production device via a pipeline, and an injection shut-off valve 2 and a first pressure reducing valve 3 are sequentially provided on the pipeline between the oxalic acid production device and the gas-liquid separation tank 1, and a first liquid discharge valve 4 is provided on the pipeline at the liquid discharge port position of the gas-liquid separation tank 1, and the exhaust port at the top of the gas-liquid separation tank 1 is sequentially connected in series with a membrane filter 5, a precision filter 6, an injection flow meter 7, an infrared analyzer 8, and a buffer tank 9 via a pipeline, and the infrared analyzer 8 is connected to a DCS via a line, and a second liquid discharge valve 10 is provided on the pipeline at the liquid discharge port position of the buffer tank 9, and the exhaust port at the top of the buffer tank 9 is connected to a venturi pump 11 via a pipeline, and the exhaust port of the venturi pump 11 is connected to a recovery device via a pipeline, and a purge mechanism is provided on the pipeline between the membrane filter 5 and the precision filter 6.
[0019] Optionally, the purging mechanism includes a nitrogen gas supply device, the exhaust port pipeline of the nitrogen gas supply device is connected to the pipeline between the membrane filter 5 and the precision filter 6, and a nitrogen shut-off valve 12, a second pressure reducing valve 13 and a nitrogen purge valve 14 are sequentially arranged in series on the pipeline.
[0020] Optionally, a pipeline connected to the venturi pump 11 is provided on the pipeline between the nitrogen cut-off valve 12 and the second pressure reducing valve 13, and a third pressure reducing valve 15 is provided on the pipeline. The nitrogen cut-off valve 12 and the third pressure reducing valve 15 are first opened, and the second pressure reducing valve 13 is closed, and nitrogen is blown into the pipeline behind the venturi pump 11 through the venturi pump 11, so as to remove the circulating gas. This process is mainly used for repairing the venturi pump 11.
[0021] Optionally, a first three-way ball valve 16 is provided on the pipeline between the membrane filter 5 and the precision filter 6, and the other outlet of the first three-way ball valve 16 is connected to the second three-way ball valve 17 via a pipeline, and the other two outlets of the second three-way ball valve are respectively connected to the standard gas cylinder 18 via pipelines. The two standard gas cylinders 18 contain zero gas and span gas respectively, and the zero gas or span gas enters through the second three-way ball valve 17 and the first three-way ball valve 16 in turn. The standard gas is introduced regularly to calibrate the analyzer, so that the zero drift of the infrared analyzer 8 can be corrected in time.
[0022] Optionally, steam heating 19 is provided on the pipeline between the oxalic acid production device and the infrared analyzer 8, electric heating 20 is coated on the pipeline between the injection flowmeter 7 and the infrared analyzer 8, and a thermal insulation layer is wrapped around the outside of the electric heating 20.
[0023] Optionally, the infrared analyzer 8 is arranged in an analysis room, and a carbon monoxide alarm, a toxic gas alarm, and an explosion-proof fan are arranged in the analysis room. When there is a gas leak in the pipeline, the carbon monoxide alarm and the toxic gas alarm will sound an alarm and upload it to the DCS to remind the operator to handle it in time.
[0024] When the system is in operation, the oxalic acid circulating gas produced by the oxalic acid production device enters the gas-liquid separation tank 1 through the injection shut-off valve 2 and the first pressure reducing valve 3 in turn. The water in the circulating gas is discharged outward through the first drain valve 4 through the gas-liquid separation tank 1, and the dehydrated circulating gas passes through the membrane filter 5 (the mode filter 5 is mainly to further remove the water in the circulating gas), the precision filter 6 (the precision filter 6 is mainly to remove impurities in the circulating gas, such as the crystal particles and the fine droplets contained), and the injection flow meter 7 in turn, and enters the infrared analyzer 8. The infrared analyzer 8 analyzes and measures the content of each component in the circulating gas, and transmits the result to the DCS (distributed control system is referred to as DCS, which adopts the design principle of decentralized control functions, centralized display operations, and taking into account the design principles of division and autonomy and comprehensive coordination). The circulating gas after the analysis enters the buffer tank 9, which not only realizes the secondary gas-liquid separation of the circulating gas, but also stabilizes the gas flow of the sample. The moisture in the circulating gas is discharged to the outside through the second liquid discharge valve 10, and the gas is sent to the recovery equipment for storage through the Venturi pump 11.
[0025] When the system stops working, first close the injection shut-off valve 2, then open the nitrogen shut-off valve 12, the second pressure reducing valve 13, and the nitrogen purge valve 14. The nitrogen generated by the nitrogen supply device passes through the nitrogen shut-off valve 12, the second pressure reducing valve 13, and the nitrogen purge valve 14 in turn, and enters the pipeline between the membrane filter 5 and the infrared analyzer 8. The nitrogen purge is used to prevent residual circulating gas from remaining in the infrared analyzer 8. It should be noted that the purge time is not less than 15 minutes. After the purge is completed, the gas in the pipeline needs to be recalibrated. First, close the injection shut-off valve 2, and turn the first three-way ball valve 16 to connect the calibration gas cylinder 18 to the pipeline. The second three-way ball valve 17 can be turned to choose to calibrate the pipeline with zero gas or range gas. It has a reasonable structural design and is easy to operate. It integrates collection, transportation, detection and analysis. It can detect and analyze circulating gas without collecting circulating gas separately, which greatly shortens the sampling and analysis cycle, makes the data more timely, and provides real-time data guarantee for the exploration of process indicators. At the same time, it effectively eliminates the safety hazards brought by external circulating gas, meets the needs of modern industrial production, and solves the problems existing in the existing technology.
