Description

Technical Field

[0001] The utility model belongs to the technical field of marine environmental protection and relates to a marine multi-bed organic amine capture system. Background Art

[0002] With the increasing attention paid to environmental protection around the world, pollutants such as carbon dioxide emitted by ships are also strictly controlled. In this context, organic amine capture systems are widely used in the field of ships as an effective carbon dioxide emission reduction technology. Organic amine capture systems mainly use absorption towers and desorption towers to capture and release carbon dioxide. The organic amine solution in the absorption tower can effectively absorb carbon dioxide, while the desorption tower is responsible for desorbing the organic amine solution that has absorbed carbon dioxide, thereby achieving the separation and recovery of carbon dioxide. Single-tower absorption and single-tower desorption are usually used to capture and release carbon dioxide. Although this method is simple and easy to implement, its efficiency is relatively low and requires a high packing layer height and energy consumption. Utility Model Content

[0003] In order to solve the above technical problems, a marine multi-bed organic amine capture system comprises at least two absorption towers connected in series, numbered 1, 2...n+1, n≥1, the absorption tower is filled with an absorbent, the absorbent is an organic amine solution, and the CO2 loading capacity of the organic amine solution is used to capture CO2, the rich liquid or semi-rich liquid at the bottom of the absorption towers 1 to n is cooled by a cooler and then enters the next absorption tower for the next absorption process, the rich liquid at the bottom of the n+1 absorption tower enters the analysis tower for analysis through a lean-rich heat exchanger, and the height of the absorption tower and the desorption tower is 10-20m.

[0004] It also includes returning the rich liquid or semi-rich liquid cooled by the cooler to the absorption tower for absorption. After being cooled by the cooler, the absorbent returns to the absorption tower, which is beneficial to promoting the forward process of absorption and improving the absorption efficiency.

[0005] The analysis tower is at least two desorption towers connected in series, and the semi-lean liquid and the lean liquid obtained by analysis enter the absorption tower through the lean-rich heat exchanger.

[0006] The ship's engine flue gas is discharged from the outlet of the absorption tower after the organic amine solution in the absorption tower captures CO2.

[0007] The absorption tower and the desorption tower are both arranged on the deck of the ship or inside the hull, and the distance between the towers is 5-15m.

[0008] The analytical tower is connected in series for heat exchange via low-pressure steam.

[0009] Compared with the existing technology, the beneficial effects of this technical solution are as follows:

[0010] 1. Use multi-tower absorption to fully utilize the CO2 loading capacity of the organic amine solution absorbent and improve the capture efficiency of carbon dioxide. This not only directly reduces the layout height of the tower on the ship, but also effectively reduces the height of the packing layer of the absorption tower, further optimizes and reduces the design height, and reduces the difficulty of arranging the tower equipment on the ship.

[0011] 2. By setting up a double-tower desorption system, the release efficiency of carbon dioxide can be improved and energy consumption can be reduced.

[0012] 3. Simplify the pipelines of multi-tower absorption and multi-tower desorption systems to reduce equipment costs and maintenance difficulties.

[0013] 4. The utility model occupies a small area on the ship and is suitable for ship environments with limited space.

[0014] 5. Compared with the prior art, the utility model has significant improvements in reducing the height of the packing layer of the absorption tower, thereby improving the overall efficiency of the system. BRIEF DESCRIPTION OF THE DRAWINGS
