Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model belongs to the technical field of benzene-containing wastewater recovery and utilization in benzene towers and benzene-toluene extraction units of aromatic hydrocarbon plants, and in particular, a benzene-containing wastewater recovery system. Background Technology

[0002] The benzene distillation column (benzene rectification column) in the aromatics unit separates petroleum benzene products through distillation. The vapor phase at the top of the column is cooled by an air cooler and sent to the benzene distillation column reflux tank for reflux. The C7+ aromatics (toluene and higher-order components) at the bottom of the column are sent to the toluene column for further toluene separation. Since the feedstock for the benzene column is a mixture of benzene and toluene aromatics produced by the benzene and toluene extraction unit, and the sulfolane solvent in the extraction unit contains water, this process is designed to prevent water contamination in the petroleum benzene products. The water also contains trace amounts of benzene. Furthermore, the extraction unit itself requires water replenishment during operation. Therefore, the benzene and toluene aromatics contain a small amount of water, which needs to be removed in the water tank of the benzene distillation column reflux tank. The oily wastewater undergoes simple treatment before being sent to a wastewater treatment plant for further treatment before being discharged.

[0003] However, benzene is classified as a Group 1 carcinogen by the International Agency for Research on Cancer (IARC) of the World Health Organization. Therefore, reducing the discharge of this portion of water and small amounts of benzene not only reduces wastewater treatment costs but also reduces the risk of exposure to carcinogens for operators.

[0013] Furthermore, the bottom outlet of the benzene tower is connected to the toluene tower via a benzene tower bottom outlet pipeline, which is sequentially connected to the benzene tower bottom pump and the benzene tower bottom outlet regulating valve group.

[0014] Compared with the prior art, the beneficial effects of this utility model are: by adding the recycling pipeline and regulating valve to the sewage reuse line of the extraction unit, the benzene-containing sewage can be further recycled and reused, and the sewage will no longer be discharged; this not only reduces the sewage treatment cost but also reduces the risk of operators being exposed to carcinogens.
