AI Technical Summary
Impurities such as C9N and C9P cannot be completely separated in existing adsorption towers, leading to the accumulation of ineffective components in the system, resulting in energy loss and reduced production capacity.
A circulating reflux line is introduced into the top reflux tank of the evaporator to recycle impurities such as C9N and C9P back to the reforming unit for further reaction. Through the reforming reaction, these impurities are converted into aromatics or cracked, reducing the ineffective components in the adsorption unit system.
By using a reflux process, ineffective components within the system are reduced, energy loss is decreased, and the plant's capacity is increased.

Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This utility model belongs to the field of chemical technology, specifically an adsorption tower discharge system. Background Technology
[0002] As the core technology of adsorption separation, the adsorption tower plays a crucial role in the production of paraxylene. During the operation of the adsorption tower, the requirements for the feed components are very strict. The effective component is C8A. However, since the purchased reformate inevitably contains C9N, C9P, etc., which have boiling points close to C8A, they cannot be completely separated by the upstream distillation system. This situation will cause the continuous accumulation of impurities such as C9N and C9P in the adsorption separation unit, resulting in the continuous circulation of ineffective components in the system, causing unnecessary energy consumption losses, and affecting the production capacity of the unit. Utility Model Content
[0003] In view of the above problems, the purpose of this application is to provide an adsorption tower discharge system that allows the material to be recycled back to the reforming unit for further reaction by drawing a line from the top reflux tank of the residual liquid tower (where impurities such as C9N and C9P are mainly concentrated), thereby reducing the ineffective components in the adsorption unit system.
[0004] To achieve some or all of the above objectives or other objectives, this application provides the following technical solution: an adsorption tower discharge system, characterized in that it includes a raffinate tower, a reforming pipeline, a raffinate pipeline, a condensate line at the top of the raffinate tower, a pipeline for discharging ineffective components, and a raffinate tower reflux line; the reforming pipeline is sequentially connected to a reforming reactor, a xylene tower, a feed tank, and an adsorption separation tower; the inlet of the reforming pipeline receives pre-hydrogenated naphtha, and the outlet of the reforming pipeline is connected to the inlet of the adsorption separation tower; the first outlet of the adsorption separation tower is connected to the raffinate pipeline. The inlet of the raffinate pipeline is connected to the second inlet of the raffinate tower; the top outlet of the raffinate tower is connected to the inlet of the top condenser line of the raffinate tower, and the outlet of the top condenser line of the raffinate tower is connected to the inlet of the reflux pump; a raffinate reflux tank is installed on the top condenser line of the raffinate tower; the outlet of the reflux pump is connected to the inlet of the reflux line of the raffinate tower, and the outlet of the reflux line of the raffinate tower is connected to the first inlet of the raffinate tower; the outlet of the reflux pump is also connected to the inlet of the ineffective component discharge pipeline, and the outlet of the ineffective component discharge pipeline is connected to the reforming pipeline.
[0005] Furthermore, the second outlet of the adsorption separation tower is connected to the inlet of the extraction pipeline, the outlet of the extraction pipeline outputs PX product, and the extraction pipeline is sequentially connected to the extraction liquid tower and the PX product tower.

[0007] Furthermore, an adsorption tower feed pump is installed on the reforming pipeline, and the adsorption tower feed pump is connected between the feed tank and the adsorption separation tower.
[0008] Compared with the prior art, the beneficial effects of this utility model are: the material with the highest concentration of ineffective components is introduced to the reforming reaction through modification, so that C9N and C9P can be reacted into aromatics or cracked, thereby reducing the ineffective components in the system; by introducing a line from the top reflux tank of the evacuation tank (where impurities such as C9N and C9P are mainly concentrated), this part of the material is recycled back to the reforming unit for further reaction, thereby reducing the ineffective components in the adsorption unit system.
