A kind of method of separating purification methane from coalbed methane containing oxygen with low-temperature liquefaction
Technical field
The present invention relates to separate with low-temperature liquefaction the method for purification methane from coalbed methane containing oxygen, belong to mixed gas separating and purifying technology field.
Background technology
Coal-seam gas belongs to unconventional Sweet natural gas, namely coal form and evolutionary process in generate, through migrating, being present in Sweet natural gas in the coal seam with adsorbed state.The major ingredient of coal-seam gas is methane, is the energy of a kind of cleaning and high heating value.China's coal bed gas resource is very abundant, and basic reserves are suitable with conventional gas.Coal-seam gas has two kinds of extraction ways: a kind of is ground extraction, and methane purity is high in its coal-seam gas, can reach about 98%.This gas utilization value ratio is higher, can direct weighting carries out pipe network and transports the accumulating of also can directly liquefying.But the coal-seam gas extraction way is extraction under the mine that carries out coal mining production more widely.Methane content is lower in the middle of this mode extraction coal-seam gas out, usually between 30%~70%.Within one quite long period, in the middle of the China's coal-mine recovery process, rely on extraction under the mine always, the extraction of coal-seam gas (being commonly referred to coal mine gas) is processed the requirement that only is in Safety of Coal Mine Production and is carried out.
The separating-purifying methane gas is significant for effective rate of utilization and the economic worth of expansion and raising coal-seam gas from mine coal seam gas.China's coal-seam gas has enormous amount, and the place of production disperses, the individual well small scale, and down-hole extraction gas concentration is low and contain the characteristics such as oxygen, must have safety, economic separation storaging and transport technology fully rationally to utilize.
The method that can be applied at present separating-purifying methane from coal-seam gas generally has the schemes such as low-temperature liquefaction separation, pressure-variable adsorption and membrane sepn, and every kind of technical scheme all has the characteristic of oneself and has separately range of application.But when containing the flammable coalbed methane containing oxygen of oxygen for the similar mine coal seam gas of separating treatment is this, safety problem becomes the problem that all isolation technique must be considered.Methane is a kind of inflammable gas, has an explosion ratio scope with air mixed, is 5%~15% at normal temperatures and pressures.This concentration range can change along with the variation of pressure and temperature, and wherein temperature rising and pressure raise and all can make the explosion ratio range extension.From mine coal seam gas, be separating-purifying methane in the coalbed methane containing oxygen of air and methane, no matter in the initial coalbed methane containing oxygen methane concentration have how high, along with the separation of methane reduces, all can pass the explosion ratio scope in system, this all is breakneck for any system for separating and purifying.
At present, the various gas separations such as low-temperature liquefaction separation, pressure-variable adsorption and membrane sepn are applied to the technology report of purification methane from coal-seam gas comparatively rare.Wherein Chinese patent application 200610080889.4,200610103425.0 discloses a kind of technical process that liquefaction separates for coalbed methane containing oxygen, adopt low temperature fractionation and fractionation measure can realize the methane of from coalbed methane containing oxygen, purifying, and can obtain the nitrogen of higher degree, can add in the middle of the cold recovery system.Yet in actual mechanical process, because in the process of purifying, the concentration of methane constantly reduces, the concentration of oxygen constantly raises, may exist the temperature of coalbed methane containing oxygen to reach the detonation point of methane, this just may cause the blast of mixed gas, this patent application is not specifically related to how to solve the technical scheme of safety problem, and flow process will further be separated nitrogen processed to containing methane tail gas, liquid-air, oxygen-rich liquid and gaseous oxygen can appear in system, there is more danger, also this do not proposed solution.Chinese patent application 200410040155.4 also discloses a kind of scheme that adopts low-temperature liquefaction to separate coal-seam gas purification methane, has wherein mentioned and will carry out just can carrying out the low-temperature liquefaction separation after the degree of depth deoxidation treatment to the raw material coal-seam gas.For the pressure-variable adsorption that adopts in the separating technology and membrane separation process, in separation process scheme, need unstripped gas is pressurizeed, this has significantly enlarged the explosion ratio scope of coal-seam gas, and it is necessary therefore taking deoxidation or other security measuress.The technique means present for deoxidation in the coal-seam gas has: the methods such as catalyzed oxidation and chemical industry conversion, but degree of depth deoxidation has the high or problem such as Technical Economy is bad, technology maturity is inadequate of cost, to containing in the coal-seam gas than polyoxy, low concentration coal-bed gas is not yet seen plant-scale application example.
According to Theory of Combustion, there is the oxygen concn that fires of a minimum in the inflammable gas-oxygen such as methane-noble gas mixtures, the point of its correspondence is called and fires stagnation point, the blast upper and lower limit concentration point of itself and inflammable gas-oxygen mixture has consisted of a trilateral, only have the coalbed methane containing oxygen concentration range of working as to be in this explosion triangle, system just might blast." coal-mine gas diaster prevention and control and utilize technical manual " 2005 the 120th page, the coordinates regional of methane air mixed gas of Fig. 1 and the schematic diagram of the explosion triangle in this coordinates regional are disclosed, this figure is commonly referred to the Coward trilateral, among the figure whole concentration range is divided into I, II, III and four zones of IV.In the realization, the division in these four zones and coalbed methane containing oxygen concentration, pressure and temperature all have relation.Further specify in conjunction with Fig. 2 and the typical mixed gas low ternperature separation process of Fig. 3 flow process.Unstripped gas enters at first that the cold recovery system progressively lowers the temperature until the part component becomes liquid, enters distillation system, obtains liquid straight product, top discharge tail gas in the distillation system bottom.Liquid straight product is directly exported with gaseous state with low temperature liquid or after returning cold recovery system recoveries cold.Also rectifying tower can be separated into a gas-liquid separator and a gas stripping column in this flow process, see Fig. 4.
The characteristics of low ternperature separation process are: by suitable flow process, can realize that high boiling separated component gradually reduces continuously in the gaseous state material, change the liquid state that contains the lower boiling composition into, more the total amount of lower boiling component is then substantially constant.During the II district of the coordinates regional that the temperature, pressure of position of the most easily blasting in feed(raw material)inlet component concentration is in system determined, the deep hypothermia sepn process always will be passed through the I district.The component concentration of the output object of having a few in the Cryogenic Separating Process (liquid and gas) can accurately be obtained in conjunction with the material balance method by Phase Equilibrium Calculation by component and concentration, the local pressure and temperature of coalbed methane containing oxygen.When separated component differed larger with residue component boiling point, after system pressure was determined, the gas phase component concentration of any position can only be determined by local temperature comparatively exactly in the system.The core concept of utilizing the These characteristics of low ternperature separation process to form technical solution of the present invention is: by unstripped gas CONCENTRATION STATE point being judged and control is liquefied and separated minimum temperature the concentration of methane in the gas phase of having a few in the sepn process all is controlled at explosion triangle, that is: beyond the I district.

The position of preferably, the most easily blasting in the described separation process scheme is the position (1 ') of distillation system outlet.
Owing to when concentration of methane gas observed value in the tail gas that the outlet position of distillation system is located during less than the upper explosive limit point of this position, just may blast, so when initial liquefaction, should improve the tail gas temperature out as far as possible; Increase again in the refrigerator power process, also want progressive action, in order to avoid enter blast area.According to known technology, when unstripped gas starting point concentration point is arranged in the III district of coordinates regional or IV district, can realize directly that the degree of depth of coalbed methane containing oxygen safety is separated.Above-mentioned technical scheme is further represented by the separation process of Fig. 5.
