[0036] Working principle:

[0037] 1. Rich amine liquid system process: The lean amine liquid with low temperature absorbs the carbon dioxide in the raw blast furnace gas in the absorption tower 1, purifies the raw blast furnace gas, enters the flash tank 6, and is expanded and cooled for the first time. After a small amount of carbon dioxide and water vapor is discharged, the lean amine liquid enters the regeneration tower 2. The amine liquid in the upper part of the regeneration tower 2 flows into the reboiler 3, is heated by the water vapor and carbon dioxide mixed gas from the outlet of the ejector 5, and then enters the lower part of the regeneration tower 2. After the exhaust gas is regenerated, the lean amine liquid is discharged.

[0038] 2. Lean amine liquid system process: The lean amine liquid discharged from the regeneration tower 2 enters the flash evaporator 4. The flash evaporator 4 maintains negative pressure through the steam injection of the ejector 5. The lean amine liquid in the flash evaporator 4 is flashed and cooled in the negative pressure environment. The flashed water vapor is mixed with the driving steam of the ejector 5 and heated. The cooled lean amine liquid is pumped back to the absorption tower 1 by the amine liquid pump set. In this way, the absorption and regeneration are repeated.

[0039] 3. Steam process: The steam enters the ejector 5, is mixed with the flashed steam in the flash evaporator 4, enters the reboiler 3 to heat the amine liquid at the outlet of the upper part of the regeneration tower 2, and the condensed water after heat release is discharged out of the system.
