Abstract

本发明披露了藉精馏并接着制取粗氩的空气分离工艺及装置。粗氩精馏段(20)的运行压力比两级空气精馏塔(2)的中压塔(4)的压力要低。

Description

本发明涉及一种精馏分离空气的方法,其中将空气压缩、预净化、冷却,然后在两级精馏塔的高压塔中粗分馏成富氮馏分和富氧液体,并将这两种馏分至少部分地输入精馏塔的中压塔中分离成氧和氮,从中压塔中抽出含氩的氧气流并送往粗氩精馏塔中;此外,本发明的还涉及实施该方法的装置。
这种用空气分离之后制取粗氩的方法,已由联邦德国专利局公开说明书DE-OS    3436897所公开。
如同在迄今运用的方法中所习以为常的那样,在先前已公开的方法中,粗氩的精馏是在含氩的氧馏分由中压塔取出的压力条件下进行的。从粗氩精馏塔取出的液态氧在大体相同的部位回送至中压塔。
如果中压塔基本上在大气压力下工作,从而粗氩精馏也基本上在大气压力下进行,则这种工艺是有利的。但在许多情况下,例如在煤气化装置中或者为在采油采气时进行吹氮时,中压塔产生的氧和/或氮却处于高压下。因此,为获得具有一定压力的氮和氧,使中压塔在约2.0~8.0bar的高压下运行,这比起对无压力情况下获得的产物最后再进行压缩的方法,经济上更有利一些。
但由于在已知方法中,粗氩精馏塔也必须在高压下运行,故而也产生一些不足之处,因为在此条件下,只能达到相当小的氩产率。
本发明的任务是,要对本说明书开始部分所提到的 那种方法及装置加以改进,使之不仅能经济地生产具有一定压力的氮和氧,而且也能以低成本制取氩。
此项任务是通过使粗氩精馏塔在低于中压塔压力的条件下运行来解决的。
因此,粗氩精馏时的压力比不再受中压塔压力比约束,从而可保持对氩产率来说最佳的值为1.1~2.0bar,优选1.3~1.5bar。尽管如此,中压塔还能在高压下放出氧和氮。
按照本发明的方法,在含氩的氧流被输入粗氩精馏塔之前先予以作功膨胀是有益的。膨胀时所回收的能量可用来压缩其他的过程料流。除此以外,作功膨胀时还会产生很多分离空气所需的冷量。以此方法,至少可以部分地取消外加冷量的输入。
同时,在作功膨胀之前,将含氩的氧流加热也是有利的。这可通过与其他的过程料流换热来进行,以与待分离的空气换热来进行为佳。
通常所产生的液态粗氩精馏剩余馏分,主要由氧组成。由于将此馏分废弃是不经济的,根据本发明的另一特征,将该液态馏分从粗氩精馏塔回输至中压塔,并在输入中压塔之前,用泵增至中压塔的压力。
事实证明,使粗氩精馏塔顶的气相馏分通过与来自高压塔的、蒸发着富氧液体进行间接换热而冷凝是有利的。以此方法,可利用工艺中现有的冷量来形成供粗氩精馏用的回流,并可取消在此工作区使用外加冷量。
最好将由此产生的被蒸发富氧馏分,再回输到中压 塔。
被蒸发的富氧馏分须在输入中压塔之前予以压缩。为此目的,按本发明方法的另一种方案,将含氩的氧流作功膨胀时所得到的功,至少部分地用来压缩被蒸发的富氧馏分。
此外,将被蒸发的富氧馏分压缩后进行冷却也是有利的。
本发明还涉及一种实施本发明所述的精馏分离空气的方法的装置。
附图中用示意图示出了本发明方法的一种实施方式,下面根据该图来进一步阐述本发明及本发明的其它细节。
经压缩并预净化的空气,经由管道1引入,在换热器36中经与产品流间接换热而冷却,并输入两级精馏塔2的高压塔3。用一个公用的冷凝器/蒸发器13将高压塔3(工作压力:6~20bar,以8~17bar为佳)同中压塔4(工作压力:1.5~10bar,以2.0~8.0bar为佳)相连,并使二者进行热交换。输入的空气在高压塔3中被粗分馏成氮和富氧馏分。液态富氧馏分经由管道6抽出,在换热器32中过冷,并有一部分经由阀门10节流而输入中压塔4。高压塔3顶部的氮同样以液态形式经由管道5抽出,在换热器32中过冷,其中一部分经由管道8作为液态产品抽出。由高压塔3出来的另一部分氮,经由管道9作为回流送到中压塔4。
液态氧(经管道14)、气态纯氮(经管道15)及不纯氮(经管道16)作为中压塔4的产品予以抽出,并在换热器 36中被加热,上述两股氮流则另外还在换热器32中被辅助加热。
除了至此已提及的物流外,还有一股含氩的氧流经由管道17从中压塔4抽出,使该氧流经换热器36复热,并输入粗氩精馏塔20,该塔在1.1~2.0bar的压力下工作,以在1.3~1.5bar的压力下工作为佳。在粗氩精馏塔20底部附带产生的其余馏分经由管道22予以抽出,并按本发明用泵23增压到向中压塔4回输所需的压力。除此以外,还使富氩氧流17在输入粗氩精馏塔20之前,经透平膨胀机18作功膨胀,使之一方面减到粗氩精馏塔20工作的低压,另一方面产生冷量。
在粗氩精馏塔20顶部产生的气态粗氩,经由管道33导入冷凝器35,部分被液化,并有一部分经由管道34作为回流输回粗氩精馏塔20,另一部分经由管道21作为中间产物抽出,并在换热器36中予以加热。
冷凝器35由来自高压塔的一部分富氧馏分(经管道6抽出)冷却,该部分馏分经由管道11引入,在换热器24中过冷,并经由管道25导入冷凝器35。同粗氩精馏塔20的塔顶气体进行间接换热时被蒸发的部分经由管道26抽出,并在换热器24及36中予以复热。
由于将该物流中所含的氧废弃在经济上不合算,所以在该实施例所述的方法中,将其回输到中压塔4。为达到所需的压力,将该富氧物流在两个压缩级27及29中进行压缩,每级压缩之后都要进行冷却(经水冷却器28及30)。接着,将富氧物流经由管道31输入换热器36, 在该换热器中再被冷却,随后输至中压塔4。在此过程中将含富氩的氧馏分17膨胀时所得的功用来驱动压缩机29是用利的。
可将管道1中的一部分空气在输入高压塔3之前在换热器中用来自中压塔4底部的氧予以冷凝。为此,可将来自中压塔底部的液体用泵增至高压,并在换热时部分蒸发。然后将部分冷凝的空气在高于附图所示的第一输入部位(管道1的输入部分)的位置输入高压塔3。此部分工艺在附图中未示出,但在给定的精馏压力下可能是有利的。
对于有经济意义的氩产率来说,必须生产出纯度至少为99.5%的产品氧(经管道14抽出),以便在富氩的氧流(流经管道17)中富集足量的氩。为此,在中压塔4中压力为5bar时,常规的方法需要的空气系数为5.86。而在本发明方法中该系数则减至5.45,从而节省能量7.0%。
