Description

The method and apparatus of purified gases
Invention field
The invention provides a kind of method and apparatus that is used for purifying and analytical gas.Particularly, the invention provides a kind of method and apparatus that carbon dioxide as additive in the manufacture process that requires high-pureness carbon dioxide and composition is carried out purifying and analysis.
Background of invention
Carbon dioxide is used for many industry and domestic applications, does not contain various impurity in many these application requirements carbon dioxide.Unfortunately, the carbon dioxide that obtains by natural source such as gas well, chemical method, fermentation process, the carbon dioxide that perhaps produces in industrial production particularly by the carbon dioxide of hydrocarbon products burning generation, contains sulphur compound such as the carbonyl sulfide (COS) and the hydrogen sulfide (H of impurity level usually 2S), oxidation product (oxygenates) is as acetaldehyde and alcohol, and aromatic compounds such as benzene.When carbon dioxide is estimated to be used for the application (for example manufacturing of food and soda, medical product and electronic device and cleaning) of requirement high-pureness carbon dioxide, must before using, sulphur compound and other hydrocarbon impurity that contains in the air-flow be reduced to low-down content.The Impurity removal level that requires changes according to the application of carbon dioxide.For example, for the beverage articles for use, carbon dioxide (CO 2) in total sulfur content should be lower than 0.1ppm, the content of aromatic hydrocarbon must be lower than 0.02ppm.For the electronic product clean applications, the content of heavy hydrocarbon need be reduced to and be lower than 0.1ppm.
The whole bag of tricks of removing sulphur compound and hydrocarbon impurity from the gas of carbon dioxide and so on is known.For example, the United States Patent (USP) of authorizing Lieder etc. has disclosed for the 4th, 332, No. 781 by following steps and has removed COS and H in the air-flow 2The method of S: at first, contact the H that removes in the hydrocarbon stream with the aqueous solution of reproducible oxidation reactant by making air-flow 2S, described reproducible oxidation reactant can be a polyvalent metal ion, for example iron, vanadium, copper etc., thus produce air-flow that contains COS and the aqueous mixture that contains the reactant of sulphur and reduction.Be hydrolyzed to CO by making air-flow and water contact the COS that makes in the air-flow then with suitable hydrolyst 2And H 2S, described hydrolyst for example are nickel, platinum, palladium etc., after this, and with H 2S discharge and when needing with CO 2Discharge.This step can be by the H that describes before 2S removes step or finishes by absorbing.Said method relates to and uses heavy and expensive equipment and based on the system of liquid, this system needs close concern, and disadvantageous compound such as water vapour may be introduced in the carbon dioxide product.
United States Patent (USP) the 5th, 858,068 and 6,099, disclose the faujasite that uses the silver exchange and MFI type molecular sieve for No. 619 and removed sulphur, oxygen and other impurity in the carbon dioxide, this carbon dioxide will be used in the relevant application of food.United States Patent (USP) the 5th, 674 has disclosed for No. 463 and to have utilized hydrolysis and to remove carbonyl sulfide and hydrogen sulfide impurities in the carbon dioxide with the reaction of metal oxide such as iron oxide.
Know, contact with metal oxide such as cupric oxide, zinc oxide or their mixture, can directly remove sulphur compound in the air-flow (H for example by making air-flow 2S).Also know by following steps and can remove sulphur impurity: at first on hydrolyst, make COS be hydrolyzed to H 2S is then by removing H with reactive metal oxide 2S.As COS and H 2When the content of the impurity of S and so on surpasses trace, by removing H with reactive metal oxide 2It is higher that the expense of S can become, because this catalyst is non-renewable, and costs an arm and a leg.Need use cheaply material to remove COS and H 2S and other sulphur impurity (for example mercaptan and dimethyl sulfide) are to reduce purifying CO 2Cost.Also need to remove at low cost acetaldehyde, alcohol, aromatic compounds (for example benzene) and wait other impurity.According to using (need remove metal for electronic product and food applications, remove agricultural chemicals) for the food application need, may also need to remove other impurity as metal and agricultural chemicals and so on, thereby the method that also needs to remove these impurity.In addition, also needing can be with the various impurity of low cost analysis such as sulphur compound, aldehyde, pure and mild aromatic compounds.
Because the terminal user of many carbon dioxide requires their employed carbon dioxide not sulfur-containing compound, hydrocarbon and other impurity substantially, and because the carbon dioxide that the carbon dioxide of natural origin and industry are made often contains sulphur and hydrocarbon compound, therefore people are still seeking sulphur and the hydrocarbon compound that can remove fully basically in the carbon dioxide gas stream, and other impurity can not introduced economy and effective method in the carbon dioxide simultaneously.People are also in the low-cost analytical method of seeking for various impurity.Hope can have easy and effective method is realized these purposes.

Detailed Description Of The Invention
Usually the carbon dioxide that is used for industrial process of producing contains many impurity. These impurity usually are many The problem that Carbon Dioxide Application is concerned about, but estimating that being used for the people consumes (for example soda) and electronics system In the production of the product of making, the purity of carbon dioxide is very important, can affect taste, the matter of final products Amount and legitimacy.
Can usually contain following impurity by the impure carbon dioxide that any carbon dioxide source obtains: sulfuration is closed Thing, for example carbonyl sulfide, hydrogen sulfide, dimethyl sulfide, sulfur dioxide and mercaptan; Hydrocarbon impurity, for example aldehyde, alcohol, Aromatic compounds, propane, ethene; And other impurity, for example water, carbon monoxide, metal and agricultural chemicals. The invention describes the new method of removing various impurity and the new method of analyzing some impurity. Can be according to titanium dioxide Carbon be in process of production purifying or in the time will using purifying, can use in a different manner these to go Remove the method with analysing impurity. The various fields of employment of carbon dioxide comprise beverage filling equipment, food product refrigeration Equipment, electronic product manufacturing equipment and fountain type (fountain) carbon dioxide distribution place.
For the purposes of the present invention, at least some sulphur impurities (for example hydrogen sulfide and carbonyl sulfide) can be at 50-150 ℃ the rising temperature under remove. In production equipment, can be after final compression stage but at aftercooler Reach this temperature in the compression process of feed carbon dioxide before. When will using, this temperature can Obtain by the combination of using heater and heat-exchange device. The low-purity two of suitable temperature will be warmed up to Carbon oxide gas stream is incorporated into reaction of Salmon-Saxl device bed. This normally contains the appearance of some catalyst and sorbing material Device, these catalyst and sorbing material or with sulphur compound reaction or adsorption of sulfur compounds.
Preferably, catalyst material is to make H2S and COS are converted into elementary sulfur and are retained in purification media On catalyst material, or form the catalyst material of metal oxide with sulphur impurity reaction. Mercaptan it The sulphur impurity of class can be adsorbed on the purification media simply. Some materials may need oxygen make hydrogen sulfide it The sulphur compound of class is converted into sulphur, needs oxygen and water to make carbonyl sulfide be converted into hydrogen sulfide, and then is converted into sulphur. Material according to sulfur purification of the present invention comprises carbonate and hydroxide, for example the sodium on activated carbon and potassium Hydroxide or carbonate; Metal oxide, for example use separately or load on copper in the micro-porous adsorption agent, The oxide of zinc, chromium or iron, described micro-porous adsorption agent for example is activated alumina, activated carbon or silica gel. Its It also can remove carbonyl sulfide and sulfur dioxide impurities by reaction effectively such as the material of CuY zeolite and so on. With comparing near the processing under the ambient temperature, use higher temperature sulphur removal obviously to improve except devulcanization The ability of hydrogen and carbonyl sulfide.
For the purposes of the present invention, by with catalytic oxidation and absorption in conjunction with or only remove hydrocarbon impurity by absorption.Adsorbent bed can be removed from unconverted any impurity of catalyst bed and water, perhaps removes most of impurity when not using catalyst bed.In production equipment, catalytic reactor can be after sulfur removal bed, after the charging compression step, perhaps after water wash step.In the field of employment, catalyst bed can be after sulfur removal bed.Stream temperature need be elevated to 150-450 ℃, so that various hydrocarbon impurity oxidation.The temperature of reactor depends on the impurity that will remove and the catalyst of use.
The carbon dioxide gas stream that is substantially free of oxidation of sulfur compound impurities is imported above-mentioned catalytic reactor after improving its temperature by heater and/or heat exchanger device.Catalytic reactor can contain the catalyst of one piece catalyst or particle form.Employed material noble metal normally in catalytic reactor, as platinum or palladium, they load on particulate vector or the one piece carrier.This reactor beds is adding an amount of oxygen by the oxidation reaction purification of carbon dioxide before the catalyst bed or before the sulfur removal bed.In catalyst bed, the impurity conversion of propane, aldehyde, alcohol, acetic acid esters and aromatic compounds and so on is carbon dioxide and water.Any sulphur impurity residual after sulfur removal step can be converted into sulfur dioxide in catalyst bed.The temperature of catalyst bed depends on the impurity in the charging.For the impurity of alcohol, aldehyde and aromatic compounds and so on, need temperature 150 ℃ to 300 ℃ scope.But, for other impurity of methane, ethane and propane and so on, require temperature to be higher than 300 ℃, need temperature to be higher than 450 ℃ sometimes.Catalytic reactor can be by being oxidized to it impurity that carbon dioxide is removed carbon monoxide and so on.For suitably removing impurity, need to surpass the oxygen of the required stoichiometry of oxidation reaction, and the addition of essential suitably control oxygen.
The logistics of leaving reactor beds or sulfur removal bed or compressor reducer is cooled to send into adsorbent bed then near environment temperature in heat-exchange device, removes and anhydrate and other residual impurity.Used adsorbent depends on the impurity in the charging.Usually, the adsorbent of activated alumina (AA), zeolite (for example 4A or 13X) or silica gel and so on is used to remove moisture.In addition, for the purposes of the present invention, adsorbent bed contains zeolite such as NaY or its ion exchange form, to remove the sulphur compound (for example dimethyl sulfide compound) of impurity aldehyde, alcohol (for example methyl alcohol and ethanol), acetic acid esters (for example methyl acetate and ethyl acetate) and some traces.For these impurity, the ability of y-type zeolite is apparently higher than other zeolite and non-zeolitic materials.For the aromatic compounds of benzene and toluene and so on, can use other adsorbent of activated carbon or dealuminium Y type beta stone (DAY) and so on.
For plurality of impurities, need be in adsorbent bed stacked multiple adsorbent.For from underfeed situation, the setting of adsorbent bed is to remove water absorbent in the bottom usually, and the centre is a y-type zeolite, and the top is activated carbon/DAY adsorbent.Adsorbent can be nonrecoverable pattern, and sorbing material is changed after using up fully, perhaps can regenerate.Usually carry out heat regeneration with logistics free from foreign meter comparatively speaking.For continued operation, need two or more adsorbent beds, when one or more regeneration of adsorbent beds, another or a plurality of adsorbent bed can be in the purifying pattern like this.
For the purposes of the present invention, use the various impurity of sulphur analyzer and hydrocarbon analyzer analysis in the different phase of this processing procedure.These two kinds of analyzers can be in an independent device, gas-chromatography for example, and perhaps they can be different devices.Before analyzing, can the impurity of various sulphur and hydrocarbon be concentrated, to improve their content in sample.This step has been improved the detection lower limit of each analyzer.This is specially adapted to content to be reduced to the impurity of benzene below the 20ppb and so in beverage application.
The sulphur analyzer will be analyzed the total sulfur content in charging, different phase and the final products or the content of various sulphur class materials.For beverage grade carbon dioxide, the total sulfur content in the product except that sulfur dioxide must be lower than 0.1ppm, and sulfur dioxide must be lower than 1ppm.
The hydrocarbon analyzer will be analyzed total hydrocarbon (for example methane) amount in charging, different phase and the final products or the content of various hydrocarbon materials.For beverage grade carbon dioxide, require the total hydrocarbon amount in the product to be lower than 50ppm, then different to the restriction of each component, for example the content of benzene needs less than 20ppb, and the content of acetaldehyde needs less than 0.1ppm, and the content of methyl alcohol needs less than 10ppm.
Adopt the various combinations of described purification technique and analytical technology to solve various CO 2Purifying needs.For in the time will using carbon dioxide, carrying out purifying, purification of carbon dioxide before beverage filling or electronic product are made for example, the flow velocity that uses with the user is transported to purifier apparatus with impure carbon dioxide from storage tank usually.These speed are 100-10000sm 3/ hour (standard cubic meter/hour), the final application and the scale of production facility specifically depended on.The pressure of carbon dioxide is about the 1.5-21 crust usually, generally is about the 15-19.5 crust.In some applications, particularly those relate to the application of the carbon dioxide that is used for the electronics cleaning, and the scope of pressure is that 60 crust are to hundreds of crust.
Referring to accompanying drawing, Fig. 1 is the overview of carbon dioxide being carried out purge process in the time will using.According to the impurity in the charging, the some parts in this process can omit.With impure carbon dioxide from storage tank 10 along pipeline 1, by pressure regulator 3, introduce first heat exchanger 20 along pipeline 5 again.By pipeline 2 oxygen is added in this logistics, be used for sulfur removal bed and catalytic reactor.Optional flow controller (not shown) can be used for measuring and control the impure carbon dioxide flow from storage tank 10.First heat exchanger 20 is elevated to about 40-120 ℃ with the temperature of impure carbon dioxide from room temperature.Not pure carbon dioxide through heating leaves first heat exchanger, arrives heater 30 by pipeline 7, and the temperature of logistics is maintained at about 50-150 ℃ in heater.For some situation, can omit heat exchanger 20, only use the raise temperature of logistics of heater 30.Impure carbon dioxide is left this heater, enters sulfur removal bed 40 by pipeline 9.Sulfur removal bed contains various materials, as supported carbonates, hydroxide and oxide, is used to remove various sulphur impurities such as hydrogen sulfide, COS and mercaptan.Can extract sample by pipeline 12, be transported to analysis platform 65, so that the real time data of sulfur impurity concentration in the reaction of Salmon-Saxl device bed to be provided.
The not pure carbon dioxide that does not contain most of sulphur impurity is substantially introduced second heat exchanger 50 by pipeline 11, and the temperature of logistics is elevated to more than 150 ℃ in second heat exchanger.This impure carbon dioxide is discharged from second heat exchanger by pipeline 13, further is heated to 150-450 ℃ in the unshowned in the drawings heater.The carbon dioxide of this heating enters in the catalyst bed 60 that contains pellet type catalyst or monolith catalyst.Various impurity in the charging (for example benzene and aldehyde) react in catalytic reactor with oxygen, are converted into carbon dioxide and water.In this reactor, some residual in charging sulphur impurities can be converted into sulfur dioxide.
At this moment, the carbon dioxide gas stream of purifying is left catalytic reactor substantially, turns back in second heat exchanger 50 by pipeline 15.Part in this high-pureness carbon dioxide (purified carbon dioxide) gas is drawn towards analysis platform 65 by pipeline 14, analyzes the purity of this carbon dioxide gas stream at analysis platform.
Purified carbon dioxide gas steam is left second heat exchanger, enters first heat exchanger 20 by pipeline 17, and the temperature of this logistics is brought down below 40 ℃ in first heat exchanger.The pure carbon dioxide air-flow of cooling leaves first heat exchanger, enters optional film drier 70 by pipeline 19, and the most of water in the film drier in the carbon dioxide gas stream is removed.This high-pureness carbon dioxide leaves optional film drier, enter adsorbent bed 80 by pipeline 21, this adsorbent bed helps to remove any impurity that may still exist in the carbon dioxide gas stream as the backup unit (bakeup) of catalytic reactor bed 60 and sulfur removal bed 40.If use the film drier to dewater, then adsorbent 80 contains two adsorption layers usually, promptly is used to the activated carbon layer of removing zeolite such as the y-type zeolite layer of aldehyde, alcohol, acetic acid esters and DMS and being used to remove the aromatic compounds impurity of benzene and toluene and so on.Described activated carbon layer can be used to remove residual sulphur, for example hydrogen sulfide and carbonyl sulfide by carbonate, hydroxide or metal oxide impregnated.If do not use the film drier, then must use the other adsorption layer that constitutes by activated alumina or silica gel or zeolite (for example 3A, 4A, 13X and NaY) to remove moisture.This adsorbent bed can carry out heat regeneration with logistics free from foreign meter substantially under 150-300 ℃ temperature.A part of carbon dioxide behind the purifying can be used as regeneration gas.
The sub-fraction sample of the purification of carbon dioxide that adsorbent bed 80 is discharged returns analysis platform 65 by pipeline 24, detects any impurity that may still exist in the carbon dioxide gas stream.Most of carbon dioxide leaves adsorbent bed, reaches valve 25A by pipeline 23.This valve is divided into two parts with carbon dioxide gas stream, about 90% air communication is crossed pipeline 25 and is directly guided in the manufacturing operation, about 10% air communication is crossed pipeline 27, becomes liquefied carbon dioxide by cooler 85 again, arrives the pure carbon dioxide jar 90 of deposit then by pipeline 29.
Analysis platform comprises sample concentrator and one or more detector that is used to analyze various impurity such as sulphur compound, hydrocarbon, aromatic compounds and oxidation product.Sample concentrator is sent into their desorption in the detector then normally based on impurity is adsorbed for a long time.FID (flame ionization detector) or PID (photoionization detector) can be used for detecting hydrocarbon, aromatic compounds and oxidation product.FPD (flame photometric detector) or SCD (sulfur chemistry luminescence detector) can be used for measuring sulphur impurity.
Equipment of the present invention and method are to design with solving carbon dioxide impurities, particularly are being used for the relevant problem of carbon dioxide that manufacture process will be supplied with in the time will using.By carrying out purifying and analysis simultaneously, the operator of production facility can obtain stable supply and the purification of carbon dioxide of quality assurance is arranged, and the present invention also provides the conservation tank that contains purification of carbon dioxide, the particular case that can be used for the real-time under-supply of any purification of carbon dioxide or can not satisfy the demands.This makes the operator can control purge process better, because if impurity content can not satisfy the requirement to each impurity content in the carbon dioxide, then the operator can stop or ending purge process.
