Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] The utility model relates to the technical field of chemical production, in particular to a compression process system of a VCM device. Background Art
[0002] Vinyl chloride (VCM) is mainly used to manufacture homopolymers and copolymers of polyvinyl chloride and is an important raw material in the PVC chemical production process.
[0003] After being compressed by the compressor, the raw vinyl chloride gas enters the aftercooler for cooling. The cooled vinyl chloride gas then enters the monomer dehydration unit. Existing aftercoolers are mostly installed horizontally. Horizontal units have a low heat transfer coefficient, resulting in high return temperatures, high overall compressor temperatures, poor internal oil-gas separator effectiveness, and increased oil mist entrainment in the gas phase. Furthermore, the condensed oil and water in horizontal units are temporarily stored at the bottom of the unit and are easily re-entrained into the monomer dehydration system at the outlet. This shortens the life of the packing in the drying tower of the monomer dehydration system, causes caking, and accelerates corrosion of the load-bearing wire mesh. Utility Model Content
[0004] In response to the above technical problems, the utility model provides a VCM device compression process system, which is used to solve the problem that the oil and water condensed in the existing after-cooler are easily entrained into the monomer dehydration system at the outlet, resulting in a shortened life of the packing in the drying tower of the monomer dehydration system, the formation of lumps, and accelerated corrosion of the load-bearing wire mesh.
[0005] In order to achieve the above-mentioned purpose, the technical solution of the present utility model is as follows:
[0006] A VCM device compression process system includes a VCM compressor unit, wherein the inlet of the VCM compressor unit is connected to the compressor inlet main pipe, and the outlet of the VCM compressor unit is connected to the compressor outlet main pipe. The system also includes an aftercooler, a gas-liquid separator, a monomer dehydration plant and a compressor return valve group. The inlet of the aftercooler is connected to the compressor outlet main pipe, the outlet of the aftercooler is connected to the gas-liquid separator, the discharge port of the gas-liquid separator is connected to the VCM wastewater treatment and recovery device, the exhaust port of the gas-liquid separator is respectively connected to the monomer dehydration plant and one end of the compressor return valve group, and the other end of the compressor return valve group is connected to the compressor inlet main pipe.
[0007] Furthermore, an HP type wire mesh foam catcher is provided at the upper end of the gas-liquid separator.
[0008] Furthermore, a remote level gauge is installed on the gas-liquid separator, the input detection end of the remote level gauge is located in the gas-liquid separator, the output control end of the remote level gauge is connected to an automatic control valve, and the automatic control valve is installed on the discharge port of the gas-liquid separator.
[0009] Compared with the prior art, the beneficial effects of the present invention are as follows: the material gas output by the VCM compressor unit flows through the aftercooler in an upper inlet and lower outlet manner, thereby preventing the accumulated liquid generated during operation from accumulating inside the aftercooler, providing convenience for the drainage of the aftercooler, and allowing the accumulated liquid in the lower head of the aftercooler to flow into the gas-liquid separator by gravity. Since the operating temperature of the gas-liquid separator is 50~55°C, even if the accumulated liquid contains liquid vinyl chloride, the liquid vinyl chloride will be completely vaporized and enter the monomer dehydration plant after long-term operation at this temperature, and the temporary storage of condensed oil and water will not occur; the liquid phase separated in the gas-liquid separator is detected in real time by a remote liquid level gauge. When the liquid phase inside it reaches the set threshold value of the remote liquid level gauge, the automatic control valve is automatically controlled to open, and the liquid phase inside it is discharged from the equipment and transported to the VCM wastewater treatment and recovery device.
