Description
Technical Field
[0001] This utility model belongs to the field of liquefied gas technology, specifically relating to a liquefied gas desulfurization system. Background Technology
[0002] In the petrochemical industry, liquefied petroleum gas (LPG) produced by catalytic cracking units is generally subjected to preliminary desulfurization with ethanolamine. Under normal circumstances, the sulfides in the LPG after amine removal are mainly mercaptan sulfur, and also contain a small amount of hydrogen sulfide and trace amounts of carbonyl sulfur and dimethyl sulfide. The content of dimethyl sulfide is about 1 to 2% of the total sulfur content in the LPG.
[0003] After amine removal, the product enters the liquefied petroleum gas (LPG) dethiol system. This system operates on the principle of the weak acidity of thiols and the ease with which thiols are oxidized to disulfide compounds. The reaction equation is as follows:
[0004] RSH + NaOH → RSNa + H2O (Removal of mercaptan sulfur from oil products)
[0005] 2RSNa + 1 / 2O2 + H2O → RSSR + 2NaOH (Desulfurization of thioglycolate anions from alkali)
[0006] First, the strong alkali (NaOH) in the extractant reacts with the thiol to produce sodium thiolate. The sodium thiolate dissolves in the extractant and is removed from the liquefied gas. The extractant containing sodium thiolate is then oxidized to disulfide by oxygen under the action of a catalyst, and the extractant is regenerated. The regenerated extractant can be recycled, which can avoid the generation of a large amount of alkali residue.
[0007] The liquefied petroleum gas (LPG) first enters the pre-alkali washing settling tank to remove hydrogen sulfide and entrained amine-rich liquid. Then, it enters the extraction unit for mercaptan removal. These processes cause a decrease in the alkali concentration in the alkali solution and extraction agent system, and an increase in the amount of carbonates, sulfates, and anions carried or generated within the system. In severe cases, saturation precipitation and deposition within the system can lead to the phenomenon of "impurities and salts accumulating" at the remote pressure points of the pre-alkali washing settling tank and extraction settling tank. Therefore, when the temperature changes and decreases, it easily leads to a "distortion" phenomenon where the "remote pressure transmission" continuously rises with increasing temperature. Simultaneously, because the pre-alkali washing alkali solution contains a large amount of sulfides and has a strong pungent odor, it poses a health hazard to workers and causes a certain degree of environmental pollution.
[0008] During the high-temperature season in summer, due to the long-distance transmission of external liquefied gas to the unit and the uncertainty of its composition, the temperature of the gas entering the unit can rise to 50-55℃, causing the pressure in the raw material buffer tank to rise continuously. Part of the C3 component in the liquefied gas is vaporized, and the original C2 light component depressurization process of the unit can not meet the requirements. It is necessary to depressurize by opening the safety valve branch valve to prevent the raw material buffer tank from overpressure.
[0009] The temperature of the liquefied gas entering the existing desulfurization system needs to be adjusted to reduce on-site liquid level verification work, ensure the stable operation of the pre-alkali washing settling tank, and ensure the safety of the operators. Utility Model Content
[0010] This invention provides a liquefied petroleum gas desulfurization system that can effectively solve the problems of pressure relief in summer and crystallization of extractants in winter.

[0018] The LPG sand filter tower is connected to a refined LPG discharge pipeline.
[0019] It also includes an oxidation regeneration tower, a three-phase separation tank, a tail gas settling tank, and an emergency venting tank, which are connected in sequence by pipelines.
[0020] The lower part of the oxidation regeneration tower is connected to a rich extractant feed pipeline, an oxygen feed pipeline, and a self-stabilized gasoline back-extracting oil feed pipeline.

[0023] Preferably, an LPG feed pump is installed on the pipeline between the LPG buffer tank and the pre-alkali washing settling tank.

[0028] The interface position transmission of the pre-alkali washing tank, primary extraction settling tank, and secondary extraction settling tank in the LPG desulfurization system uses interface level gauges. These gauges have a gas phase (negative pressure P) function. A ) and liquid phase (positive pressure P) B There are two pressure taps. The pressure at the negative pressure tap is the gas phase pressure inside the equipment; the pressure at the positive pressure tap is affected by both the gas phase pressure and the hydrostatic pressure of the liquid column. The difference between the negative pressure and the hydraulic pressure is the hydrostatic pressure generated by the liquid column. When one end of the interface gauge is connected to the liquid phase and the other end to the gas phase, according to the principles of fluid statics, we have:
[0029] P B =P A +Hpg
[0030] Where: H -- liquid height; p -- density of the measured medium; g -- gravitational acceleration at the local area of the measurement.
[0031] From the formula, we can obtain: ΔP=P B -P A =Hpg; Under normal circumstances, the density and gravity of the measured medium
[0032] Since the accelerations are known, the differential pressure measured by the level gauge is proportional to the liquid height H, thus transforming the problem of measuring the liquid height into the problem of measuring the differential pressure.

[0055] Work process:
[0056] The liquefied petroleum gas (LPG) supplied by the pump, after being heated by the raw material heat exchanger 7, is mixed with the alkaline solution from the bottom of the pre-alkali washing settling tank in the pre-alkali washing venturi tube 10. After thorough contact and reaction in the pre-alkali washing mixer 11, the mixture enters the pre-alkali washing settling tank 2 for sedimentation and separation, where hydrogen sulfide is removed. The pre-alkali washed LPG is then expelled from the top of the pre-alkali washing settling tank 2 to the primary extraction mixer 20. The interface of the pre-alkali washing settling tank 2 is controlled to prevent the LPG from carrying alkali after pre-alkali washing. A sampling port is provided for the pre-alkali washing alkaline solution, and the alkali concentration is analyzed periodically to determine if alkali replacement is necessary. The regenerated lean extractant is first injected before the secondary extraction mixer 21, and then pumped out from the bottom of the secondary extraction settling tank 4 by the semi-lean extractant pump 22 and returned to the primary extraction mixer 20.
[0057] The qualified liquefied petroleum gas (LPG) after pre-alkali washing flows out from the top of the pre-alkali washing settling tank 2 and is fully mixed and reacted with the semi-lean extractant from the semi-lean extractant pump 22 in the first-stage extraction mixer 20, and then enters the first-stage extraction settling tank 3 for sedimentation and separation. The LPG flows out from the top of the first-stage extraction settling tank 3 and is mixed with the lean extractant from the lean solvent pump 43 in the second-stage extraction mixer 21 for second-stage extraction and desulfurization reaction, and then enters the second-stage extraction settling tank 4 for sedimentation and separation.
[0058] The sodium thiolate-rich extractant is pressed out from the bottom of the primary extraction settling tank 3 and then sent to the oxidation regeneration tower 33 via boundary control.
[0059] A sampling port is installed on the refined liquefied gas outlet pipeline 32 to sample and analyze the desulfurization and total sulfur effects, which serve as the basis for adjusting the extraction operation.
[0060] After mercaptan removal, the liquefied petroleum gas (LPG) is pressurized from the top of the secondary extraction settling tank 4 and mixed with circulating water from the bottom of the washing settling tank 5. This mixture is then passed through a water washing venturi tube 28 to wash away any alkaline substances entrained in the LPG before entering the water washing settling tank 5 for further sedimentation and separation. The LPG flows out from the top of the tank and passes through an LPG sand filter tower 6 to remove any entrained moisture before exiting the system. The washing water is circulated from the bottom of the tank via the water washing venturi tube, and its alkalinity (pH value) is controlled. The washing water is replaced periodically.
[0061] The back-extraction oil from the system, along with the rich solvent from the primary extraction settling tank, oxygen from the oxygen-enriched unit, and the circulating solvent, is premixed in regeneration mixer 40 and then enters the lower part of oxidation regeneration tower 33 for regeneration reaction via the packed section. The sodium thiolate dissolved in the extractant is oxidized to disulfide and dissolved in the back-extraction oil. The extractant and back-extraction oil flow from the top of the tower into three-phase separator 34 for separation. The tail gas from the top of three-phase separator 34 is discharged to the incinerator via a pressure control device. The regenerated lean extractant is recycled from the bottom of three-phase separator 34 via liquefied gas feed pump 9.
[0062] The back-extracted oil passes through the lower baffle inside the three-phase separator 34 and is drawn from the bottom of the tank by the back-extracted oil circulation pump. A portion is recycled to the regeneration mixer 40 by flow control, and the remainder is discharged from the back-extracted oil level control device to be used as raw material.
[0063] By adding a raw material heat exchanger 7 and flexibly adjusting the tube-side medium and flow rate, the temperature of the shell-side liquefied gas in the heat exchanger can be stably controlled. During high-temperature seasons, the circulating water medium in the tube-side is used in a green flow to open control valves 1 (49), 2 (50), 3 (51), and 4 (52), while control valves 6 (54) and 7 (55) are closed to prevent cross-contamination. This low-temperature medium exchanges heat with the shell-side liquefied gas. The outlet temperature of the raw material heat exchanger 7 is generally set at 35-38℃. The temperature control valve at the outlet of the raw material heat exchanger 7 is set to automatic. When the liquefied gas temperature is high, the valve automatically increases its opening to increase the flow of circulating water, achieving cooling until the heat exchanger outlet temperature reaches the set temperature. When the temperature is too low, the valve automatically closes, achieving regulation while reducing circulating water consumption. During the low-temperature season, the tube-side medium of raw material heat exchanger 7 is changed to hot water in the red flow. The circulating water flow is overloaded with the auxiliary line, and control valves 1-49, 2-50, 3-51, and 4-52 are closed. Control valve 9-57 is opened 2-3 notches to prevent freezing. Hot water, as a high-temperature heat source, is used to open control valves 5-53, 6-54, 7-55, and 8-56. The outlet temperature of the raw material heat exchanger is generally set at 30-35℃. The temperature control valve at the outlet of raw material heat exchanger 7 is set to automatic. When the liquefied gas temperature is low, the valve automatically adjusts and increases its opening to increase the flow of hot water, achieving the purpose of heating until the temperature control valve reaches the set temperature. When the temperature is too high, the valve automatically closes, achieving the purpose of regulation while reducing the consumption of hot water.
[0064] Following the above procedures not only ensures that the temperature of the LPG entering the unit remains stable at 35℃ during winter, significantly reducing the probability of crystallization caused by high salt content in the alkali system and eliminating abnormalities such as inaccurate interface display, but also greatly reduces the amount of alkali consumed and waste alkali generated due to interface fluctuations. In the high-temperature summer season, it can also maintain the LPG temperature below 40℃, ensuring that the existing depressurization process for oil-gas separator recovery can maintain the pressure of LPG buffer tank 1, preventing depressurization into the flare and resulting in burn-out and waste.
