Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] The utility model relates to the technical field of energy saving and consumption reduction, specifically to an automatic dehydration device for dehydrogenation liquid. Background Art
[0002] During the styrene production process, crude styrene is mixed with a small amount of water and fed into the styrene distillation unit as raw material. The separation of this water from the oil will increase the steam consumption of the distillation unit, and the power consumption of the pump will also increase when processing a large amount of water. If a large amount of water is brought in, it will cause tower pressure fluctuations, affecting the stable production of the device. When water is brought into the finished styrene product, the finished styrene product will be unqualified due to reasons such as color, reducing economic benefits. Therefore, the external operator needs to take samples on site and send them to the quality inspection department to analyze the water content in the dehydrogenation liquid. When the water content is high, the water is cut manually. During this process, the amount of water discharged cannot be determined, and a large amount of oil in the water discharge will affect the condensate water quality.
[0003] If a process technology can be developed to automatically separate the water from crude styrene and control the oil in the drainage process, it will achieve stable production of the device, reduce steam consumption and power consumption of water transportation equipment, increase enterprise economic benefits, and improve the qualified rate of styrene finished products.

The water content in the solution in the hydrogen liquid tank will automatically open the first valve body when the water reaches a certain concentration to separate the oil phase and the water phase.

[0011] The technical effects and advantages of this utility model are:
[0012] (1) During the dehydration process of the dehydrogenated liquid, the water content in the dehydrogenated liquid tank is reduced through the oil-water separation system, which provides a good feed composition, lowers the separation temperature, and reduces the steam consumption in the next styrene distillation system, thereby effectively reducing the energy consumption in the subsequent distillation process. At the same time, the water in the dehydrogenated liquid is treated and reused, achieving cost reduction, efficiency improvement, and efficient operation of the styrene unit.
[0013] (2) An intelligent system is designed next to the dehydrogenation liquid tank and the oil-water liquid tank to interlock and control the start and stop operation of the pump, allowing for continuous or intermittent dehydration, reducing the workload of on-site operators. The proposal of this device provides strong theoretical guidance and technical support for the construction of cost reduction and efficiency improvement projects in other fields.
[0014] (3) Through regular sampling and analysis of the water content in the dehydrogenation liquid tank, it was found that under the same operating conditions, the water content in the dehydrogenation liquid tank was significantly improved compared with before the improvement, and the water content in the dehydrogenation liquid tank was ≤0.1%.

[0021] Preferably, the model of the intelligent monitoring system 2 is PGC5000, purchased from ABB of Germany (Abb).
[0022] The device is used as follows: aqueous dehydrogenation liquid enters the aqueous dehydrogenation liquid pipe 14 and enters the dehydrogenation liquid tank 1. The dehydrogenation liquid tank 1 detects the water content of the solution in the dehydrogenation liquid tank 1 online through the intelligent monitoring system 2. When the water content reaches a certain concentration, the first valve body 6 is automatically opened, and the oily water accumulated in the water phase chamber 5 is discharged into the oil phase chamber 3 through the pressure difference. The entire process is separated by the overflow plate 4, and the oil phase and the water phase are separated. When the liquid level in the water phase chamber reaches a certain value, the water phase in the oil-water split tank is automatically sent to the stripping tower system for recovery through the machine pump 8.

[0024] Comparative Example 1
[0025] The steps include:
[0026] 1) Regularly sample and analyze the water content in the dehydrogenation liquid. When the water content data of the quality inspection is ≥1000ppm after a long period of analysis, manual dehydration is performed by the external operator;
[0027] 2) When the liquid level in the drainage tank is ≥50%, the on-site pump will be started to send all the oily water to the stripping system for separation. If there is a large amount of oil phase, the condensate water will be unqualified.
[0028] 3) On-site sampling cannot always provide feedback on the water content in the high / low tower feed dehydrogenation liquid. In order to avoid the impact of water on the system, the steam usage of the distillation tower needs to be adjusted at all times. The comparative data are as follows:
[0029]
[0030] Summary: Based on the above data, the embodiment designed an automatic dehydration device for dehydrogenated liquid, and its dehydration effect was significantly better than that of the comparative example. It can effectively avoid the hysteresis of sampling analysis and the unqualified condensate water caused by oil in the stripping system, while reducing the risk of fluctuations in production operation.
