Abstract

The invention relates to a method for desalting seawater by utilizing the cold energy of liquefied natural gas through direct contact refrigeration, belonging to the technical field of refrigeration and cryogenic engineering. Firstly, heat exchange is carried out between the liquefied natural gas and secondary coolant in a heat exchanger, the liquefied natural gas is gasified to absorb heat so as to condense the water-insoluble secondary coolant by reducing the temperature thereof, the condensed secondary coolant is sprayed into a crystallizer to exchange heat with seawater through direct contact, liquid drops of the secondary coolant is evaporated to absorb heat, and therefore seawater around the liquid drops releases heat and is refrigerated into ice crystals. Prepared ice is rinsed in a rinsing tank so as to eliminate salt attached to the surface of the ice and then is led into a melting device to be melted into fresh water. The process recovers a great amount of cold energy accumulated in the liquefied natural gas, dispenses with a high consumption refrigerating unit and can effectively reduce the energy consumption of indirect refrigeration seawater desalination device, the loss of the heat exchange process is low, and the size of the device is small.

Description

Utilize the direct contact refrigeration method for desalting seawater of cold energy of liquefied natural gas
Affiliated technical field
The present invention relates to a kind of freezing method for desalting seawater, directly feed in the seawater after the water-fast secondary refrigerant condensation of particularly a kind of use, utilize the direct contact refrigeration method for desalting seawater of cold energy of liquefied natural gas, belong to refrigeration and cryogenic engineering technical field.
Background technology
At present the Sweet natural gas proportion increases day by day in China's energy structure, has built up in the coastal region in east China or is building a plurality of natural gas liquids (LNG) receiving station.In entering user's pipe network process, natural gas liquids need gasify and be Sweet natural gas, can discharge a large amount of colds in the gasification.In addition, because natural gas liquids receiving station many places are in remote coastland, municipal water supply inconvenience, therefore this part cold that utilizes gasification to produce adopts the form of cold method to carry out sea water desaltination, and is significant for effectively utilizing of the energy.
The sea water desaltination mode has multiple, and wherein the cold method flowage structure is simple, and energy consumption is low.There are steam compression type vacuum-freezing process, steam absorption vacuum-freezing process, the industrialization of directly cold method, and input to use for the cold method method for desalting seawater both at home and abroad.Water in steam compression type vacuum-freezing process, the steam absorption vacuum-freezing process in the use seawater is as refrigerant, need to handle a large amount of low-pressure water steams, because the amount of compressor treating water steam is limited, limited the fresh water yield of above-mentioned two kinds of method unit's devices.And directly contact freezing promptly is directly to spray in the seawater with the immiscible liquid phase low temperature refrigerant of water, the heat absorption of refrigerant droplet evaporation, and the seawater heat release around the drop freezes to be ice crystal.Directly the refrigerant that contact freezing adopts and water is immiscible significantly improves the treatment capacity of compressor, thereby has increased the fresh water yield of unit device greatly as refrigerant.But directly the contact refrigeration method for desalting seawater needs a cover refrigeration system to provide cold for refrigerant in its device, can consume a large amount of energy.
Summary of the invention
Be deficiency and the defective that overcomes prior art, reduce the energy consumption of direct contact refrigeration sea water desaltination, the present invention proposes a kind of cold that discharges in the liquefied natural gas gasifying process that utilizes, and makes after the water-fast secondary refrigerant condensation directly to feed in the seawater, carries out sea water desaltination then.Absorb the cold that natural gas liquids discharges by secondary refrigerant in gasification, its temperature is reduced and condensation, again water-fast secondary refrigerant after the condensation is directly sprayed in a large amount of seawater in the crystallizer, the heat absorption of secondary refrigerant droplet evaporation, the seawater around it then heat release freezes to be ice crystal.The ice crystal that obtains is carried the form input washing tank of part seawater with ice slurry secretly, and with the salinity of the part fresh water that finally makes as bath water flush away ice crystal surface.Washing ice crystal later enters melter, makes fresh water after the thawing.
The present invention implements according to following technical proposals, and the inventive method comprises the steps:
1, at first natural gas liquids and water-fast secondary refrigerant carry out heat exchange in first interchanger, make the natural gas vaporization gasification, and the secondary refrigerant temperature reduces and condensation;
2, water-fast secondary refrigerant directly sprays in the interior a large amount of seawater of crystallizer after the condensation, the heat absorption of secondary refrigerant droplet evaporation, and seawater around it then heat release freezes to be ice crystal;
3, Qi Hua secondary refrigerant detaches crystallizer, absorbs the water vapour of carrying secretly in the gas phase secondary refrigerant through moisture eliminator, enters condensation once more after first interchanger and the natural gas liquids heat exchange afterwards again;
4, the ice crystal that makes is carried the form input washing tank of part seawater with ice slurry secretly, and with the salinity of the part fresh water that finally makes as bath water flush away ice crystal surface;
5, washing ice crystal later enters melter, carries out heat exchange with raw material seawater therein, and final the thawing is fresh water;
6, through effusive washing salt solution later further heat exchange in second interchanger in raw material seawater after the melter heat exchange and the washing tank, reduce the temperature of raw material seawater, thereby reduce the crystallization load.
The invention has the beneficial effects as follows: a large amount of colds that in gasification, discharge by natural gas liquids, cool off water-fast secondary refrigerant and make its condensation, make ice crystal by secondary refrigerant and the direct contact heat-exchanging of seawater, and making secondary refrigerant heat absorption gasification once again, the ice crystal that makes then finally obtains fresh water by washing, thawing.This process reclaims a large amount of colds that contain in the natural gas liquids, need not the high energy consumption unit cooler, can effectively reduce the energy consumption of indirect refrigeration sea water desalinating plant, and the heat transfer process loss is less, and plant bulk is less.
