TECHNICAL FIELD
[0001] The utility model relates to acid water stripping tower technical field, concretely relates to a kind of acid water heat exchange treatment systems. BACKGROUND
[0002] In oil refining chemical production device, acid water stripping device is used to handle the acid water generated in the processes such as reforming, catalysis, coking, hydrogenation and gas separation in upstream processes. The acid water enters the acid water stripping device, and is converted into purified water after being heated by the reboiler to strip hydrogen sulfide. The purified water is sent to the sewage treatment system for further treatment and then discharged. The purified water after acid water stripping has a relatively high temperature. In order to recover this part of heat, a heat exchanger is arranged between the inlet and outlet pipelines of the acid water stripping device. Raw water (referring to acid water that has not been treated by the acid water stripping device) flows in the tube side of the heat exchanger, and the purified water flows in the tube side of the heat exchanger, so that the heat of the purified water is transferred to the raw water. The impurities such as coke powder and light oil contained in the raw water will accumulate on the heat exchanger to form dirt as the running time of the device increases. This part of dirt will cause the heat exchange effect to decrease, which leads to the decrease of the operation flexibility of the acid water stripping device, and easily causes the unqualified quality of the purified water, and the content of ammonia nitrogen and sulfide in the purified water exceeds the standard. At the same time, due to the decrease of the heat exchange efficiency of the heat exchanger, the heat extraction efficiency of the acid water feeding temperature decreases, so that the temperature of the acid water entering the tower cannot meet the index requirements. In order to ensure that the purified water meets the requirements for external delivery, the steam consumption of the reboiler at the bottom of the tower needs to be increased to ensure the stripping effect of the stripping tower. On the other hand, the acid water stripping device will reprocess the alkali sludge of the upstream device, which will quickly cause the dirt to form in the purified water passage of the heat exchanger, and also cause the heat exchanger to be blocked, thereby reducing the inlet and outlet balance of the acid water stripping device. Therefore, in order to maintain the normal operation of the acid water stripping device, it is necessary to stop the acid water stripping device and disassemble and clean the heat exchanger. The stoppage will shorten the operation cycle of the stripping process.
[0003] Therefore, how to simply remove the dirt on the heat exchanger and reduce or eliminate the downtime of the acid water stripping device has become a problem that needs to be solved by technical personnel. CONTENT OF THE UTILITY MODEL

[0026] A sour water heat exchange treatment system, such as Figure 1As shown, including the heat exchanger group steam purging pipeline and water flushing pipeline, heat exchanger group respectively including a plurality of heat exchanger 9, heat exchanger 9 near the side of stripping tower respectively connected stripping tower acid water pipeline 31 and stripping tower purified water pipeline 32; heat exchanger 9 away from the side of stripping tower respectively connected acid water pump 4 and purified water cooling device 5;
[0027] Heat exchanger 9 is connected with steam purging pipeline and water flushing pipeline respectively;
[0028] Steam purging pipeline connects steam system pipe network 8, which is 1.0 MPa steam system pipe network built in chemical plant, and water flushing pipeline connects purified water pipe network 7, which is purified water pipe network in chemical plant.
[0029] Steam purging pipeline and water flushing pipeline respectively use steam and water to purge and flush heat exchanger 9, which can clean the accumulated dirt in heat exchanger 9 and ensure the heat exchange efficiency of heat exchanger 9. Since multiple heat exchangers 9 are provided, a part of the number of heat exchangers 9 can be cut out for cleaning dirt during system operation, and other heat exchangers 9 are still used to supply raw water to the stripping tower acid water pipeline 31 of the acid water stripping device, thereby prolonging the operation cycle of the acid water stripping process.
[0030] The heat exchanger group includes first heat exchanger subgroup 1 and second heat exchanger subgroup 2 connected in parallel, and each heat exchanger subgroup includes a plurality of heat exchangers 9 connected in series. The plurality of heat exchangers 9 connected in series can improve the heat exchange effect of the heat exchanger subgroup and ensure that the temperature of the acid water after heat exchange is maintained above 90℃. The plurality of heat exchanger subgroups connected in parallel can cut out a part of the heat exchangers 9 from the "heat exchanger-stripping tower" operation system for cleaning, and the heat exchangers 9 not cut out continue to supply raw water to the stripping tower acid water pipeline 31 (i.e. the raw water pumped by the acid water pump 4).
[0031] The steam purging pipeline is connected to the tube side of the heat exchanger 9 through the heat exchanger inlet main pipeline, and the dirt accumulated by the impurities such as coke powder and light oil is softened / melted by the high temperature of the steam. The water flushing pipeline is connected to the tube side of the heat exchanger 9 through the heat exchanger vent valve, and the alkali residue scaling in the tube side is cleaned by the flushing force of water.
[0032] Valves are respectively arranged on the branches of the steam purging pipeline connecting each heat exchanger 9, which are used to prevent steam from mixing into the heat exchangers not cut out when cleaning the cut-out heat exchangers, so as to avoid gas entering the stripping device.
[0033] The steam purging pipeline is connected to the purified water pipe network 7, which is the purified water pipe network in the device. After the steam purging is completed, the tube side of the heat exchanger 9 can be further flushed with water. During the flushing process, the dirt falling off is collected by the flushing water and discharged from the tube side of the heat exchanger 9.
[0034] A three-stage settling tank 10 is arranged between the acid water pump 4 and the heat exchanger group.
[0035] The tube side of the heat exchanger 9 is connected to the underground sour water tank 6 at the end away from the steam blowing line and the stripping tower, and the line is the dirt discharge line. The sour water tank 6 is connected to the sour water pump 4, so that the dirt cleaned by blowing is re-entered into the sour water treatment process and further collected in the three-stage settling tank 10.
[0036] Valves are arranged on the branches of the tube side of each heat exchanger 9 to which the sour water pump 4 is connected, for preventing the raw water in the heat exchanger 9 from leaking to the dirt discharge line, which normally supplies raw water to the stripping tower sour water line 31 of the sour water stripping device.

[0038] The water flushing line is connected to the tube side of the heat exchanger 9 at the end away from the stripping tower sour water line 31. During flushing of the tube side of the heat exchanger 9, the flushing direction is the same as the flow direction of the purified water in the normal heat exchange process, which is more conducive to cleaning of the alkali residue scale. Since the plurality of heat exchangers 9 are respectively connected to the purified water cooling device 5, the cleaned alkali residue scale can be discharged from the purified water line, and the flushing water is collected in the underground sour water tank.
[0039] Valves are arranged on the branches of the tube side of each heat exchanger 9 to which the water flushing line is connected, for preventing the water used for flushing the tube side from mixing with the purified water used for heat exchange.
[0040] When the heat exchange system of the heat exchanger-stripping tower in the system is normally operated, the first heat exchanger group 1 and the second heat exchanger group 2 are simultaneously used, and the valves connecting the inlets and outlets of the heat exchanger groups are closed, so that the raw water flowing out of the sour water tank passes through the second heat exchanger group 2 and the first heat exchanger group 1 in sequence and enters the stripping tower sour water line 31, and the purified water flowing out of the stripping tower purified water line 32 passes through the first heat exchanger group 1 and the second heat exchanger group 2 in sequence and is discharged to the purified water cooling device 5, at this time, the burden of each heat exchanger is smaller.
[0041] When the second heat exchanger group 2 needs to be cut out for cleaning, the third valve 13, the twelfth valve 22 and the seventh valve 17 are opened, the first valve 11, the second valve 12, the sixth valve 16 and the ninth valve 19 are closed, the fourth valve 14, the eighth valve 18 and the nineteenth valve 29 are opened, the tube passage of the second heat exchanger group 2 is cut out from the operation system of the "heat exchanger-gas stripping device", the raw water flowing out of the sour water pump 4 enters the stripping tower sour water pipeline 31 through the first heat exchanger group 1, and the purified water flowing out of the stripping tower purified water pipeline 32 is discharged to the purified water cooling device 5 through the first heat exchanger group 1, the heat exchange load of the plurality of heat exchangers is higher than that when the two heat exchanger groups are simultaneously enabled, but the normal operation of the system can still be ensured; at the same time, the fourth valve 14 and the eighth valve 18 are opened, so that the steam blowing pipeline can input blowing steam into the heat exchanger 9 in the second heat exchanger group 2, and the blowing steam can be discharged from the second heat exchanger group 2 along the eighth valve 18, after the steam blowing is completed, the flushing water pump is opened, the cleaning medium in the tube passage of the heat exchanger 9 in the second heat exchanger group 2 is changed from steam to water, so that the detached dirt is collected and discharged to the underground sour water tank 6, and the dirt can be further treated during the sedimentation process.
[0042] When the first heat exchanger group 1 needs to be cut out for cleaning, the fourth valve 14 and the eighth valve 18 are closed, the first valve 11, the second valve 12, the sixth valve 16, the ninth valve 19, the eleventh valve 21 and the fourteenth valve 24 are opened, the twelfth valve 22, the fifteenth valve 25, the tenth valve 20 and the sixteenth valve 26 are closed, the third valve 13 and the seventh valve 17 are closed, the tube passage of the first heat exchanger group 1 is cut out from the operation system of the "heat exchanger-gas stripping device", and the tube layer of the second heat exchanger group 2 functions in the state of the operation system of the "heat exchanger-gas stripping device"; the steam blowing pipeline can input blowing steam into the heat exchanger 9 in the first heat exchanger group 1 through the opened fifth valve 15 and the eighteenth valve 28, and the blowing steam can be discharged from the first heat exchanger group 1 along the seventeenth valve 27, after the steam blowing is completed, the flushing water pump is opened, the thirteenth valve 23 is opened, the flushing water is input into the heat exchanger 9 in the first heat exchanger group 1, and the flushed water flows into the purified water cooling device 5 for further treatment after being combined with the purified water flowing out of the second heat exchanger group 2 from the seventeenth valve 27.

[0044] After the steam purging pipeline and water flushing pipeline are added, two groups of raw water purification water heat exchangers are alternately cut out, the purging time is ensured to be 36-48 hours, the phenomenon of rising steam energy consumption caused by the decline of heat exchange effect is avoided, the operation cycle of the sour water stripping device is prolonged from 9 months to more than 36 months, the long-period operation target of three years of overhaul is met; according to the calculation of the verified data of the treated effect, the steam consumption is reduced from 0.162 t / t to 0.136 t / t, the steam consumption is reduced by 0.026 t / t, and according to the processing load of 80 t / h, 2.08 tons of steam can be saved per hour, and about 3.22 million yuan of steam consumption cost can be saved per year.
