Description
Technical Field
[0001] This invention belongs to the field of chemical technology, specifically relating to a coal-based ethylene process for vinyl chloride production. Background Technology
[0002] Vinyl chloride (VCM) is an important monomer for the synthesis of polyvinyl chloride (PVC), which is the world's second largest general-purpose synthetic resin material and my country's largest general-purpose synthetic resin material, widely used in various fields such as industry, agriculture, and construction.
[0003] Currently, there are two main methods for producing vinyl chloride: the acetylene method (calcium carbide method) and the ethylene method. The acetylene method, due to the large amount of calcium carbide slag produced during its production and the high energy consumption required for the production of its raw material, calcium carbide (approximately 3500 kWh / t calcium carbide), has become a key target for rectification. On March 7, 2022, the Ministry of Ecology and Environment issued the "Opinions on Further Strengthening the Prevention and Control of Heavy Metal Pollution," requiring a ban on the construction of new acetylene method vinyl chloride production processes using mercury. The "Draft for Comments on the Guidance Catalogue for Industrial Structure Adjustment (2023 Edition)" lists acetylene method vinyl chloride production facilities using high-mercury catalysts as outdated and prohibited processes, and lists acetylene method vinyl chloride as outdated and restricted processes. Internationally, the ethylene method accounts for 70% of vinyl chloride production, while in China it accounts for only 23%. Given the increasingly stringent energy conservation, emission reduction, and environmental pressures in China, adopting the ethylene method for vinyl chloride production is an inevitable trend.
[0004] The ethylene process boasts a wide range of raw material sources, high product quality, large production scale, rational resource allocation, low production costs, easily controllable environmental pollution, and low energy consumption. With the deepening of green manufacturing, its green, environmentally friendly, and sustainable nature has garnered support, which will facilitate the accelerated large-scale development of the ethylene process. Simultaneously, with the technological advancements in my country's coal chemical industry, the production of ethylene from coal is gradually becoming an emerging industry.
[0005] The coal-based ethylene-based vinyl chloride production system includes an ethanol dehydration reaction system, a quenching compression and evaporation system, a water-alkali washing system, an adsorber system, an ethylene cryogenic distillation system, an ethylene high- and low-temperature chlorination system, a dichloroethane (EDC) cracking system, and a refrigeration system. The refrigeration system plays a crucial role in the coal-based ethylene-based vinyl chloride production process. First, several reaction steps in the production process have strict temperature requirements. For example, in the ethylene chlorination reaction, the appropriate temperature is a key factor in ensuring the reaction rate and selectivity. The refrigeration system can precisely control the reaction temperature, preventing excessively high temperatures from increasing side reactions or excessively low temperatures from slowing the reaction rate. It can remove excess heat generated during the reaction, allowing the reaction to proceed within the optimal temperature range, thereby improving the yield and quality of vinyl chloride. Second, the entire production process involves the handling and transportation of various materials. Some materials, such as ethylene, need to be stored or transported at low temperatures. The refrigeration system can cool ethylene to a suitable temperature, keeping it liquid for easy storage and precise metering and transportation. This is crucial for ensuring a stable supply and accurate proportioning of materials during production. Third, the refrigeration system helps control product quality. For vinyl chloride products, cooling can remove impurities and non-condensable gases. In the refining process of vinyl chloride, a suitable cooling temperature can bring the product to the required purity standard. At the same time, a stable refrigeration system ensures the continuity of the production process, reduces production interruptions caused by factors such as temperature fluctuations, and improves production efficiency.
[0006] Chinese patent CN113045372B discloses a process and apparatus for producing ethylene from ethanol through dehydration. The apparatus includes an ethanol dehydration reaction system, a quenching and compression system, an alkaline washing tower system, a molecular sieve regeneration system, an ethylene purification system, and a propylene refrigeration cycle system. The process involves sending ethanol to the ethanol dehydration system, where it undergoes a dehydration reaction to obtain reaction gas; cooling and separating the reaction gas in the quenching and compression system, and returning the recovered ethanol to the ethanol dehydration reaction system; sending crude ethylene, carbon dioxide, and water to the alkaline washing and molecular sieve system to remove carbon dioxide and water, obtaining crude ethylene; sending the crude ethylene to the ethylene purification system to obtain the ethylene product; and using the propylene refrigeration cycle system to provide cooling to the ethylene purification system. From the claims and description of this patent, it can be seen that the propylene refrigeration cycle system step is limited to the heat utilization of the ethylene purification section, and it uses a two-stage compressor, resulting in high energy consumption, a large footprint, and high production costs during operation.
[0007] Existing literature and patents have not reported on the supplementation and utilization of global heat in coal-based ethylene chloride production. Furthermore, due to load variations and ambient temperature fluctuations during coal-based ethylene chloride production, temperature control of the refrigeration system is challenging, easily leading to excessively high or low temperatures, improper refrigerant distribution, and poor system operational stability. This results in significant ethylene loss and negatively impacts the production quality and efficiency of vinyl chloride. Therefore, providing a coal-based ethylene chloride production system that comprehensively considers global heat utilization and offers stable, safe, and reliable operation is of paramount importance.

The propylene refrigeration cycle system 8 provides heat and cooling to the low-temperature distillation system 5, the high-low temperature chlorination system 6, and the dichloroethane cracking system 7. High-temperature gaseous propylene is transported to the low-temperature distillation system 5 for heat exchange via the propylene refrigeration cycle system 8, and then returned to the propylene refrigeration cycle system 8 for recycling. Simultaneously, low-temperature liquid propylene is transported to the high-low temperature chlorination system 6 and the dichloroethane cracking system 7 for heat exchange via the propylene refrigeration cycle system 8, and then returned to the propylene refrigeration cycle system 8 for recycling.
[0021] Example 2: Refer to Appendix Figure 1 and attached Figure 2The difference in this embodiment lies in that the coal-based ethylene process for producing vinyl chloride includes a cryogenic distillation system 5 comprising a demethanizer, a purification tower, and a cryogenic distillation refrigeration unit. The cryogenic distillation refrigeration unit includes a purification tower reboiler 509, a demethanizer reboiler 508, an ethylene heater 507, a propylene condenser 506, a propylene collection tank 505, a primary flash tank 504, a secondary flash tank 503, a purification tower condenser 502, and an ethylene cryocooler 501. High-temperature gaseous propylene from the propylene refrigeration cycle system 8 is supplied with heat to the purification tower reboiler 509, the demethanizer reboiler 508, the ethylene heater 507, and the propylene condenser 506. The propylene condensate produced by the reboiler 509 of the purification tower, the reboiler 508 of the demethanizer tower, the ethylene heater 507, and the propylene condenser 506 enters the propylene collection tank 505. The high-temperature liquid propylene in the propylene collection tank 505 is then cooled by flash evaporation in the first-stage flash tank 504 and the second-stage flash tank 503. The gaseous propylene flashed out by the first-stage flash tank 504 and the second-stage flash tank 503 is returned to the propylene refrigeration cycle system 8. The low-temperature liquid propylene obtained by the second-stage flash tank 503 is transported to the purification tower condenser 502 and the ethylene cryocooler 501 as a cold source. The low-pressure gaseous ethylene produced by the purification tower condenser 502 and the ethylene cryocooler 501 is returned to the propylene refrigeration cycle system 8.

In the low-temperature flash economizer 806, a portion of the liquid propylene is flashed into liquid propylene. The vapor phase returns to 805, while the other portion of the liquid propylene is cooled and throttled before entering subcooler A808. In subcooler A808, a portion of the liquid propylene is flashed back into vapor and returned to propylene compressor 805, while the other portion is cooled and sent to the high and low temperature chlorination refrigeration unit, the cracking refrigeration unit, and the suction buffer tank 807. The low temperature liquid propylene evaporates into vapor after heat exchange in the high and low temperature chlorination refrigeration unit and the cracking refrigeration unit, and then returns to propylene compressor 805 for recycling after passing through suction buffer tank 807.
