Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of chemical equipment technology, and in particular to a high-efficiency and energy-saving vacuum system. Background Technology

[0002] Currently, distillation columns are widely used in chemical production. They are key equipment for achieving efficient, energy-saving, environmentally friendly, and safe chemical production. The rational design and optimization of distillation column operation are crucial for improving the overall level of chemical production. In the KA oil production process, the separation processes of the 200# benzene separation column, benzene recovery column, cyclohexene separation column, and cyclohexene refining column are mainly carried out through negative pressure distillation columns. The KA oil unit currently significantly reduces the boiling point of the materials by lowering the system pressure, thus reducing heating requirements, saving energy and improving separation efficiency. The KA oil unit consumes 120 t / h of steam during daily production. Steam consumption directly determines the overall production cost. With continuous technological innovation over the years, the KA oil unit has achieved comprehensive heat recovery and utilization. However, the current high-pressure steam consumption in the steam jet pump vacuum system is approximately 2 t / h. The oily, high-temperature condensate generated after the jet pump is directly discharged into the oily wastewater tank, resulting in low heat utilization efficiency and energy waste. There is an urgent need to improve the current situation by adopting a more efficient vacuum system. Utility Model Content

[0003] The purpose of this invention is to provide a highly efficient and energy-saving vacuum system. Considering the operating conditions of the 200# distillation column, which requires a certain level of vacuum to maintain a negative pressure state, a new dry vacuum pump system is added. One outlet of the distillation column is connected to a steam jet pump, and the outlet of the steam jet pump is connected to the steam jet pump condenser for liquid recovery. The vapor phase is collected in the process discharge manifold. The other outlet is connected to the dry vacuum pump condenser, and the outlet of the dry vacuum pump condenser is connected to the dry vacuum pump, with the vapor phase collected in the process discharge manifold. The two outlets are connected in parallel and can be switched according to actual conditions. This technical modification of the vacuum system of the KA oil unit's distillation column, combining a dry vacuum pump with a steam jet pump, reduces the medium-pressure steam consumption in the unit, ultimately reducing steam consumption per ton of product production cost, lowering production costs, maintaining stable unit operation, and resulting in good economic benefits.

The benzene separation tower 3, benzene recovery tower 4, and cyclohexene separation tower 5 are connected to the inlet of the first dry vacuum condenser 12 at their respective second outlets. The second outlet of the cyclohexene refining tower 6 is connected to the inlet of the second dry vacuum condenser 13. The outlets of the first dry vacuum condenser 12 and the second dry vacuum condenser 13 are respectively connected to the inlets of the first dry vacuum pump 1 and the second dry vacuum pump 2. The power supply is used to power each component, and the controller is used to control the start and stop of each component.

[0014] It also includes a first manifold regulating valve PIC-201, a second manifold regulating valve PIC-202, a third manifold regulating valve PIC-203, and a fourth manifold regulating valve PIC-204 for controlling the amount of process exhaust gas returned to the distillation column to maintain the negative pressure of the distillation column. The first manifold regulating valve PIC-201, the second manifold regulating valve PIC-202, the third manifold regulating valve PIC-203, and the fourth manifold regulating valve PIC-204 are respectively installed at the corresponding discharge ports of the benzene separation column 3, the benzene recovery column 4, the cyclohexene separation column 5, and the cyclohexene refining column 6. The control input terminals of the first manifold regulating valve PIC-201, the second manifold regulating valve PIC-202, the third manifold regulating valve PIC-203, and the fourth manifold regulating valve PIC-204 are connected to the output terminal of the controller.

[0015] It also includes a first fixed pump inlet regulating valve PCV-271, a second fixed pump inlet regulating valve PCV-272, a third fixed pump inlet regulating valve PCV-273, and a fourth fixed pump inlet regulating valve PCV-274, used to control the gas flow rate of the dry vacuum pump and adjust the gas flow rate from the distillation tower to the process exhaust gas. The first fixed pump inlet regulating valve PCV-271, the second fixed pump inlet regulating valve PCV-272, the third fixed pump inlet regulating valve PCV-273, and the fourth fixed pump inlet regulating valve PCV-274 are respectively installed at the corresponding first gas outlets of the benzene separation tower 3, the benzene recovery tower 4, the cyclohexene separation tower 5, and the cyclohexene refining tower 6. The control input terminals of the first fixed pump inlet regulating valve PCV-271, the second fixed pump inlet regulating valve PCV-272, the third fixed pump inlet regulating valve PCV-273, and the fourth fixed pump inlet regulating valve PCV-274 are connected to the output terminal of the controller.

[0016] It also includes a fifth fixed pump inlet regulating valve PCV-275. A connecting pipe is also provided between the air inlets of the first dry vacuum condenser 12 and the second dry vacuum condenser 13. The fifth fixed pump inlet regulating valve PCV-275 is installed on the connecting pipe. The control input terminal of the fifth fixed pump inlet regulating valve PCV-275 is connected to the output terminal of the controller.

[0017] In practical use, the top gas phase outlet of the benzene separation tower 3 is connected to the discharge port. One outlet is connected to the benzene separation tower steam jet pump 7, and the other outlet of the benzene separation tower steam jet pump 7 is connected to the first dry vacuum pump condenser 12. The outlet of the first dry vacuum pump condenser 12 is connected to the first dry vacuum pump 1. The gas phase is collected into the process discharge manifold. Since the negative pressures of the benzene separation tower 3, cyclohexene separation tower 5, and cyclohexene refining tower 6 are similar, it is considered to use one first dry vacuum pump 1 for vacuuming. The benzene recovery tower 4 requires a lower negative pressure, so a second dry vacuum pump 2 is used alone. The cyclohexene separation tower 5 and cyclohexene refining tower 6 are similar to those of the benzene separation tower 3. The top vapor outlet of benzene recovery tower 4 is connected to the discharge port. One outlet is connected to the second steam jet pump 8, and the outlet of the second steam jet pump 8 is connected to the steam jet pump condenser 11 for liquid condensation recovery. The vapor phase is collected in the process discharge manifold. The other outlet is connected to the second dry vacuum pump condenser 13, and the outlet of the second dry vacuum pump condenser 13 is connected to the second dry vacuum pump 2. The vapor phase is collected in the process discharge manifold. The two outlets are connected in parallel through a connecting pipe and switched according to actual conditions. The four distillation towers share the steam jet pump condenser 11.

[0018] During the operation of the steam jet pump, the negative pressure of the distillation column may fluctuate due to the fluctuation of medium-pressure steam with the fluctuation of utility works. The amount of process exhaust gas returning to the distillation column is controlled by the process discharge manifold regulating valves PIC-201, PIC-202, PIC-203, and PIC-204 to maintain the negative pressure of the distillation column. During the operation of the dry vacuum pump, the intake air volume of the dry vacuum pump is controlled by fixed pump inlet regulating valves (PCV-271, PCV-272, PCV-273, and PCV-274), which in turn adjusts the amount of gas flowing from the distillation column to the process exhaust gas. This, combined with the control of the amount of process exhaust gas returning to the distillation column by process exhaust manifold regulating valves (PIC-201, PIC-202, PIC-203, and PIC-204), maintains the negative pressure in the distillation column. Initially, a steam jet pump is used to draw negative pressure; once stable, the dry vacuum pump can be switched to. However, a steam jet pump and a dry vacuum pump should not be used simultaneously in the same distillation column. The inlets of the first dry vacuum pump 1 and the second dry vacuum pump 2 are controlled by the fifth fixed pump inlet regulating valve PCV-275. When one of them fails, the fifth fixed pump inlet regulating valve PCV-275 is opened in time to maintain the original negative pressure operation of the distillation column.
