Description

Technical Field

[0001] The utility model relates to coal chemical industry synthetic ammonia equipment, specifically an ammonia centrifugal compressor energy-saving production system. Background Art

[0002] In the current coal chemical ammonia synthesis process, the ammonia compressor, a key refrigeration device, provides cooling for the five low-temperature methanol wash ammonia coolers and the two-stage ammonia synthesis cooler. The ammonia centrifugal compressor utilizes a four-stage compression system. The ammonia return gas from the low-temperature methanol wash section is compressed in the first stage and then mixed with the second-stage ammonia return gas from the ammonia synthesis section before entering the second stage. After exiting the second stage, the gas is mixed with the first-stage ammonia return gas from the synthesis section before entering the third and fourth stages. A water cooler is installed between the third and fourth stages to cool the high-temperature ammonia gas and improve compression efficiency. Because the uncooled ammonia gas at the outlet of the second stage is directly mixed with the first-stage ammonia return gas from the synthesis section before entering the third stage, its temperature is too high. This reduces the isothermal compression efficiency of the compressor and increases system energy consumption.

[0003] In order to ensure stable operation, the ammonia compressor is equipped with an anti-surge circuit, which uses the ammonia gas after the final stage cooler at the compressor outlet to return to the inlet of the 1st, 2nd and 3rd compression stages as needed. Affected by the pressure stage air temperature and load, the partial anti-surge opening is about 13%-17%. Since the gas phase ammonia temperature in this circuit is relatively high, after mixing with the low-temperature methanol scrubber ammonia return gas, the inlet temperature of the ammonia compressor is increased, which further causes high consumption of the ammonia compressor.

[0004] Therefore, how to lower the temperature of each compressed gas entering the compressor and effectively reduce the energy consumption demand of the corresponding compressor is a technical problem that needs to be solved urgently. Summary of the Invention

The secondary ammonia cooler gas ammonia outlet pipe 23 is installed with a third-stage gas ammonia deammonification compressor inlet anti-surge valve 24.

[0042] In this embodiment, the second-stage ammonia compressor anti-surge pipeline 21 is connected to the secondary ammonia cooler gas ammonia outlet pipeline 23 through the second-stage gas ammonia deammonification compressor inlet anti-surge pipeline 29, and the second-stage gas ammonia deammonification compressor inlet anti-surge valve 26 is installed on the second-stage gas ammonia deammonification compressor inlet anti-surge pipeline 29.

[0043] In this embodiment, the first-stage ammonia compressor anti-surge pipeline 22 is connected to the secondary ammonia cooler gas ammonia outlet pipeline 23 through the first-stage gas ammonia deammonification compressor inlet anti-surge pipeline 30, and the first-stage gas ammonia deammonification compressor inlet anti-surge valve 25 is installed on the first-stage gas ammonia deammonification compressor inlet anti-surge pipeline 30.

[0044] The working process of this embodiment is specifically as follows: in normal production of synthetic ammonia, the low-temperature -33°C vacuum pressure -35kpa ammonia from the low-temperature methanol washing device is connected to the first-stage ammonia compressor 2 through the first-stage ammonia compressor inlet pipe 1. After the medium gas ammonia is compressed and the pressure and temperature are increased, it is mixed with the ammonia from the second-stage ammonia compressor inlet pipe 3 in the compressor cylinder to synthesize the secondary ammonia cold gas ammonia and enter the second-stage ammonia compressor 4. After compression and pressure increase and temperature increase, the gas ammonia enters the newly added secondary cooler 5 through the outlet pipe. The high-temperature gas ammonia entering the secondary cooler 5 exchanges heat with the circulating cooling water in the pipe to reduce the temperature and is connected to the inlet of the newly added secondary ammonia cooler 6 through the outlet pipe. The normal-temperature gas ammonia entering the secondary ammonia cooler exchanges heat with the low-temperature ammonia evaporated at low pressure in the pipe to reduce the temperature. The ammonia synthesis from the third-stage ammonia compressor inlet pipe 7 is mixed with the first-stage ammonia cold gas and connected to the inlet of the third-stage ammonia compressor 8. After the third-stage compression and pressure increase, the gas temperature is increased. After the outlet pipe is connected to the inter-stage cooler 9, and after cooling by the shell-side circulating water, the gas ammonia is connected to the inlet of the fourth-stage compressor 11 through the fourth-stage compressor inlet pipe 10. After the fourth-stage compression and pressure increase, the gas temperature is increased. After the outlet pipe is connected to the final-stage cooler 12, the shell-side circulating water of the final-stage cooler 12 is initially cooled to a medium temperature of about 50°C. The gas is divided into two streams. Most of the medium-temperature gas ammonia is connected to the inlet of the ammonia cooler 13 through a pipeline, and is cooled by the shell-side circulating water of the ammonia condenser. The tube-side gas phase is condensed into liquid phase. Most of the liquid ammonia is then sent to the ammonia synthesis and low-temperature methanol washing ammonia devices through the liquid ammonia export valve 28 on the pipeline. A portion of the liquid ammonia passes through the secondary ammonia cooler liquid ammonia inlet valve 27 and the secondary ammonia cooler liquid ammonia inlet pipe 16 to the shell side inlet of the secondary ammonia cooler 6. The shell side liquid ammonia absorbs the high-temperature heat in the tube side by adopting the partition heat exchange method and is flash-evaporated into gaseous ammonia at low pressure. Then, one stream passes through the secondary ammonia cooler outlet pipe 23, passes through the third-stage gas ammonia deammonification compressor inlet anti-surge valve 24 to be connected to the third-stage ammonia compressor anti-surge pipe 20, the second stream passes through the first-stage gas ammonia deammonification compressor inlet anti-surge valve 25 to be connected to the first-stage ammonia compressor anti-surge pipe 22, and the third stream passes through the second-stage gas ammonia deammonification compressor inlet anti-surge valve 26 to be connected to the second-stage ammonia compressor anti-surge pipe 21. Through these three streams of gaseous ammonia, the purpose of closing the third-stage ammonia compressor inlet anti-surge valve 18, and the first-stage ammonia compressor inlet anti-surge valve 19 is achieved, thereby reducing ineffective anti-surge return gas medium and lowering compressor energy consumption.

[0045] During the start-up and shutdown, load fluctuation or accident conditions of the synthetic ammonia system, the load of the ammonia synthesis and low-temperature methanol washing devices is unstable, which will cause the inlet gas volume and total load of each stage of the ammonia compressor to be unstable, and the centrifugal compressor surge is likely to occur. The gas is initially cooled to a medium temperature of about 50°C by the shell-side circulating water of the final-stage cooler 12. Under the above-mentioned special conditions, it passes through the anti-surge main pipe 14, the third-stage ammonia compressor inlet anti-surge valve 17, the third-stage ammonia compressor anti-surge pipeline 20 to be connected to the third-stage ammonia compressor inlet pipeline 7; passes through the second-stage ammonia compressor inlet anti-surge valve 18, the second-stage ammonia compressor anti-surge pipeline 21 to be connected to the second-stage ammonia compressor inlet pipeline 3; passes through the first-stage ammonia compressor inlet anti-surge valve 19, the first-stage ammonia compressor anti-surge pipeline 22 to be connected to the first-stage ammonia compressor inlet pipeline 1, enters the ammonia compressor, is compressed, condensed, liquefied and enters the next cycle.

[0046] Under steady-state conditions, by adjusting the shell-side circulating water volume and temperature parameters of the newly added secondary cooler 5, the inlet temperature of the process medium gas ammonia entering the third-stage ammonia compressor 8 is lowered, thereby reducing the energy consumption of the compressor.

[0047] Under steady-state conditions, the amount of liquid ammonia in the shell side of the newly added secondary ammonia cooler 6 is adjusted through the liquid ammonia inlet valve 27 of the secondary ammonia cooler, further reducing the ammonia temperature of the outlet gas of the secondary cooler 5 and further reducing the inlet temperature of the third-stage ammonia compressor 8, thereby reducing the energy consumption of the compressor.

[0048] The gas ammonia at the shell side outlet of the secondary ammonia cooler 6 passes through the anti-surge valve 24 at the inlet of the third-stage gas ammonia deammonification compressor, and the gas ammonia evaporation pressure is adjusted to 0.38MPa and the temperature to 3°C, thereby increasing the inlet gas volume load of the third-stage ammonia compressor 8. This achieves the purpose of closing the anti-surge valve 17 at the inlet of the third-stage ammonia compressor when the ammonia cooling load of the first stage of ammonia synthesis fluctuates, thereby reducing the return air loss of the compressor.

[0049] The gas ammonia at the shell side outlet of the secondary ammonia cooler 6 passes through the anti-surge valve 26 at the inlet of the second-stage gas ammonia deammonification compressor, and the gas ammonia evaporation pressure is adjusted to 0.25MPa and the temperature to -8°C, thereby increasing the inlet gas volume load of the second-stage ammonia compressor 4. This achieves the purpose of closing the anti-surge valve 18 at the inlet of the third-stage ammonia compressor when the ammonia cooling load of the first stage of ammonia synthesis fluctuates, thereby reducing the return air loss of the compressor.

[0050] The gas ammonia at the shell side outlet of the secondary ammonia cooler 6 passes through the anti-surge valve 25 at the inlet of the first-stage gas ammonia deammonification compressor, and the gas ammonia evaporation pressure is adjusted to -33KPa and the temperature to -35℃, which increases the inlet gas volume load of the first-stage ammonia compressor 2, and achieves the purpose of closing the anti-surge valve 19 at the inlet of the third-stage ammonia compressor when the ammonia cooling load of the first stage of ammonia synthesis fluctuates, thereby reducing the return air loss of the compressor.

[0051] During the start-up, shutdown, or accident conditions of the ammonia synthesis system, when the load of the low-temperature methanol washing device changes, the anti-surge valve 17 at the inlet of the first-stage ammonia compressor is adjusted to introduce part of the ammonia gas at the outlet of the final-stage cooler 12 into the first-stage ammonia compressor 2, thereby increasing the ineffective return air volume of the compressor and ensuring that the first-stage ammonia compressor 2 operates stably in the anti-surge range.

[0052] When the ammonia synthesis system is started, shut down or in an accident, and the secondary ammonia cooling load of the ammonia synthesis changes, the anti-surge valve 18 at the inlet of the second-stage ammonia compressor is adjusted to introduce the ammonia portion of the outlet gas of the final-stage cooler 12 into the second-stage ammonia compressor 4, thereby increasing the ineffective return air volume of the compressor and ensuring that the second-stage ammonia compressor 4 operates stably in the anti-surge range.

[0053] When the ammonia synthesis system is started, shut down or in an accident, and the cooling load of the first stage ammonia synthesis changes, the anti-surge valve 17 at the inlet of the third-stage ammonia compressor is adjusted to introduce part of the ammonia gas at the outlet of the final-stage cooler 12 into the third-stage ammonia compressor 8, thereby increasing the ineffective return air volume of the compressor and ensuring that the third-stage ammonia compressor 8 operates stably in the anti-surge range.

[0054] Finally, it should be noted that the above embodiments are only used to illustrate the technical solutions of the present invention, rather than to limit it. Although the present invention has been described in detail with reference to the above embodiments, those skilled in the art should understand that they can still modify the technical solutions described in the above embodiments, or replace some or all of the technical features therein with equivalents.
