Description

A kind of X type zeolite separation material and preparation method thereof
Technical field
The invention belongs to technical field of separation materials, be specifically related to a kind of oxygen/nitrogen that has concurrently, material of oxygen/argon separating property and preparation method thereof.More particularly, relate to a kind of parting material that is applied to the gas separation field and preparation method thereof, this parting material can be widely used in separating or purify and contains oxygen gas mixture especially oxygen, nitrogen, the argon of constituent of air, especially is fit to obtain purity with non-deep cooling air separating method in air and reaches high-purity oxygen or high purity argon more than 99.5%.
Background technology
Oxygen and argon gas are widely used in various industrial process, air separation technology traditionally mostly is raw material with the air, representational isolation technics can be divided into three big mainstream technologys: Deep Cooling Method (Cryogenic), pressure swing adsorption method (PSA, VSA, VPSA), membrane separation process (Membrane Separation).
By German Ka Erlinde first oxygenerator in the world in invention in 1903, what adopt is exactly Deep Cooling Method, low-temperature distillation process enters industrialization since then, so far this technology remains the mainstream technology in industrial air separation market, in extensive air separation field, have lower separation operating cost and higher oxygen product gas purity (more than 99.5%), but, do not have effective solution for the on-the-spot air feed of specific environments such as the air separation of middle-size and small-sizeization, portable outfit.
The pressure swing adsorption air isolation technics was firstly appeared in early 1960s, and realize suitability for industrialized production the seventies, transformation absorption (Pressure Swing Adsorption is called for short PSA) air separation technology is that the variation by pressure makes the cyclic process that mist adsorbs and desorption hockets in essence in adsorbent, it is a kind of comparatively advanced gas separation, flexible because of it, convenient, small investment, energy consumption is low, the automaticity advantages of higher, pressure swing adsorption was used at the beginning from 1958 and is just developed rapidly, be mainly used in and separate small on-the-spot air feed such as the following production scale of 200TPD, its application practice is mainly reflected in the exploitation of the improvement of technological process and new and effective adsorbent (molecular sieve), be used for producing the common sorbing material that is applicable to from air absorption nitrogen that uses of traditional PSA method of oxygen by air stream, representational sorbing material is such as CaA, CaX, NaX, nitrogen absorbers such as LiX type, related separation principle is based on equilibrium separation in the adsorption system of this sorbing material of this employing, be that sorbing material is stronger than oxygen to the adsorption capacity of nitrogen, it also is selectivity, represent the ratio of adsorbent to the pure component charging equilibrium adsorption capacity of nitrogen and oxygen, usually selectivity reaches more than 3 and can realize the industrial oxygenerating that Energy Efficiency Ratio is pretty good, the selectivity of the synthetic zeolite oxygen nitrogen of improvement can be up to 10, but also in continuous breakthrough, the rational separation process of such selective binding even can accomplish separating fully between nitrogen and oxygen in fact, but, at the argon gas in the constituent of air, adsorption isotherm on these sorbing materials much at one because of oxygen and argon gas, these conventional synthetic zeolites are to oxygen in the raw air and the basic non-selectivity of argon gas, even suppose that all nitrogen are all by zeolite adsorption, in the oxygen enriched product air-flow also because of containing 5% the argon gas of having an appointment, thereby that make to adopt conventional this absorption nitrogen generally can not produce oxygen concentration greater than 95% product gas based on equilibrium adsorption theoretical foundation PSA method, general separation only is limited to 88~95.7% oxygen product, this just limited greatly need purity higher such as cutting, oxygen such as medical treatment are used (need greater than the oxygen 97% or more, even the high-pure gas of needs more than 99.5%).Therefore, obtain higher oxygen purity based on adsorption method, people have to adopt more complicated stage variable pressure adsorption system, domestic patent CN1226142A has just disclosed a kind of pressure swing absorption process that adopts stage variable pressure absorption to obtain purity 98.4%, dispel a large amount of nitrogen with the zeolite nitrogen absorber, to realize the separation of oxygen argon based on the carbon molecular sieve of dynamics stalling characteristic, although realized separation process with single power-equipment, but obviously its oxygen recovery rate of 15% has limited its application greatly, in fact, nitrogen and the argon gas rate of adsorption on CMS (carbon molecular sieve) is roughly the same, so under the situation of air feed, the remainder of oxygen product will contain near 78: 1 nitrogen of its ratio in atmosphere and argon gas, adopt as the ADSIM of ASPEN company transformation absorption simulation softward Simulation result and show, directly adopt CMS as obtaining about 80% maximum oxygen purity on the PSA law theory of adsorbent by air production oxygen, remainder is by with promptly about 19.75% nitrogen of its ratio in atmosphere and 0.25% argon gas, with CMS realize air separation be because sorbing material to the absorption of oxygen than nitrogen result more rapidly, be also referred to as the dynamics selectivity, obviously, viewpoint from oxygen/nitrogen separation, the dynamics selectivity efficient of CMS is starkly lower than the balance selectivity of zeolite, when this will directly cause obtaining oxygen product by air feed with pressure swing absorption process, the not separation of nitrogen that contains significant proportion, this also is that people have to adopt more complicated stage variable pressure adsorption system to realize the reason that high-purity oxygen reclaims, and 88~95.7% oxygen and the argon gas that produce by the PSA oxygen preparation that adopts the nitrogen adsorption agent based on equilibrium adsorption mechanism, the gaseous mixture of nitrogen is as unstripped gas, continuation is isolated more highly purified oxygen with the psa process combination of adopting CMS (carbon molecular sieve), because oxygen and the argon gas equilibrium adsorption capacity on CMS (carbon molecular sieve) also about equally, can only realize that the oxygen argon separates and realize the method for the extraction of high-purity oxygen product with the dynamics selectivity, obviously be limited by the method for designing of the mass-transfer zone of two mechanism inequality, be difficult to accomplish that the coupling of adsorption cycle and CMS (carbon molecular sieve) oxygen argon separating property are limited and be difficult to obtain cost performance piece-rate system preferably;
Stage variable pressure is adsorbed on external representational separation method mainly with US4190424, US4959483, US4913339, US 5395427, US5137549, US4190424, US4959083, US5226933 and US5470378 are representative, the multistage PSA system of existing these technology has adopted two-stage PSA at least, the employing that has nitrogen absorber at first produce oxygen concentration greater than 95.0% product gas by feed air stream, second adsorption bed of forming with carbon molecular sieve is separated argon gas wherein again, the carbon molecular sieve based on the dynamics separation principle that adopts earlier that has obtains poor argon oxygen rich gas again to adopt the nitrogen absorber based on the equilibrium adsorption theory to continue enrichment to produce high-purity oxygen, but in the whole bag of tricks that it adopts, promptly in two sections or multisection type PSA method, have two different mass-transfer zones at least, more typical feature is that at least therein a mass-transfer zone has adopted the carbon molecular sieve of dynamics separation principle to realize separating of oxygen and argon, its systemic circulation complexity, adopted a large amount of surge tanks, power-equipment carries out necessary cleaning for obtaining higher oxygen product, displacement or displacement step, energy resource consumption is huge, cost is high;
Obviously, obtaining to be higher than oxygen separation system more than 95% from constituent of air can the agent of very simple employing nitrogen adsorption obtain based on the pressure swing absorption process of equilibrium adsorption theory, but if will obtain more highly purified oxygen, need to remove the argon gas that initial concentration in the constituent of atomsphere is about 0.934 molar percentage such as the oxygen more than 99.5%, and, preferably can be based on the adsorbent that carries out the transformation sorption cycle under the equilibrium adsorption theory, has certain oxygen argon separating property, U.S. Pat 09782265 has disclosed a kind of X type zeolite with carrying silver AgX that can adsorb argon gas, has the argon oxygen selective, can be applied to the oxygen argon separates, its silver-colored exchange capacity is 20-70%, the Henry's law selectivity ratios of argon/oxygen is 1.15~1.4 in the time of 23 ℃, described zeolite has: under more low-cost than higher silver-colored exchange capacity, compare optionally best of breed of argon with oxygen, this material can be used in the VSA/PSA method of oxygen, theory based on equilibrium adsorption is carried out adsorbing separation, thereby produces purity at the oxygen more than 97%; In addition, U.S. Pat 339872 has disclosed another oxygen selective sorbent that oxygen can be separated from the oxygen-containing gas mixture, this oxygen selective sorbent has higher selectivity, load capacity and absorption rate faster, the load on the matrix of high surface of this adsorbent has a kind of transition elements complex (TEC ' s) of solid form, this transition elements complex is to be spaced from each other equably basically, it comprises a transition elements ion, in the application process of separated oxygen from the oxygen-containing gas mixture, this transition elements ion can be near oxygen flow, said as patent, this adsorbent has greater than about 0.3mmol/g, the oxygen load capacity of (adsorbent), oxygen uptake rate with dividing greater than about 0.3mmol (O2)/g (adsorbent) is applied to the oxygen that the transformation sorption cycle can obtain purity 99%; But these adsorbents generally are difficult to make, and are with high costs, relatively more responsive to the trace impurity in the gas simultaneously, are difficult to industrial applications;
Membrane separation technique is a kind of new and high technology that grows up mid-term in 20th century, industrialization starts from the forties in 20th century, gas membrane Seperation Technology is to utilize the principle of infiltration, it is the direction motion that molecule reduces to chemical potential by film, at first move on the outer surface layer of film, and be dissolved in the film, then in the interior surface layers desorb of the diffusion inside of film to film, its motive force is that this partial pressure of film both sides is poor, because the speed difference the when gas of different component is by film in the mist, thereby reach gas separate reclaim the purpose of purifying gas, in the industrialization practice aspect the oxygen that is applied to purify, be mainly reflected in the research and development of separation membrane and the breakthrough of flow process, up to now, α (Alpha) value that representational its oxygen nitrogen of organic separation membrane that can be applied to air separation separates is mostly between 2~7, the selectivity that the oxygen argon separates mostly is no more than 3.5, α is the selectivity of so-called oxygen nitrogen or oxygen argon, that is to say that separation membrane is to oxygen/nitrogen, the ratio of the infiltration capacity of oxygen/argon, simulation process is calculated and is shown, the separation membrane of oxygen nitrogen separation selectivity about 7 can obtain the oxygen of about 60% following purity, adopt the system of multistage film separation process can obtain purity even greater than 90% oxygen, just disclosed a kind of method and system of from gaseous mixture, isolating a kind of pure component gas as U.S. Pat 626559, can from surrounding air, obtain pure oxygen (purity is 60-90%) effectively, three grades of permeators are provided in the system and method that is provided at least, but not every grade and all need a compressor, although with regard to film separation system, reduced energy requirement, but obviously, produce oxygen relatively with pressure swing absorption process, its separative efficiency is still very low, to such an extent as to can't industrialization use;
Another membrane separation technique production method that solves high-purity oxygen is to adopt an a kind of continuous film tower (CMC) or a continuous film tower are combined with two-stage stripping tower (CMC-TSS) to produce the oxygen of 99% purity, 95% the oxygen that produces with the PSA method is also arranged as raw material, again with membrane separating method purification oxygen, the whole bag of tricks in conjunction with the method purification oxygen purity of continuous film tower (CMC), especially the film circulation piece-rate system with 4 outlet film assemblies is excellent, can the oxygen of production purity more than 99%, energy resource consumption is very high but the extra compression power of this piece-rate system seems, the special membrane separator that the CMC circulation requires is also very expensive, restricted its commercial Application, the selectivity that the oxygen argon separates is no more than its separative efficiency of piece-rate system of 3.5 and also allows the people be difficult to be applied to such as argon gas to purify or the application scenario of collecting oxygen, especially surpass aspect the high-purity oxygen or argon gas 99% or more in purification purity, adopt this hollow-fibre membrane because of the excessive and essentially no industrial applications value of energy resource consumption.
