Description

Methanation fluidisation magnetic control reactor assembly
Technical field
The present invention relates to a kind ofly by synthesis gas preparation, be rich in CH 4cH is rich in this reactor assembly production of the reactor assembly of gas and a kind of use 4the method of gas, particularly relate to a kind of wherein catalyst granules and realize with absorbent particles the methanation fluidisation magnetic control reactor assembly automatically separated.
Background technology
Methanation is to be synthetic natural gas (or instead of natural gas, key step SNG) by solid carbonaceous material, for example coal and biomass conversion.In this step, the coal and the gasification of biomass product stream (being commonly referred to synthesis gas) that are rich in carbon monoxide, carbon dioxide and hydrogen are converted into the CH that is rich in as pipe stage quality product by following reversible reaction 4gas:

(reacting 1)
Figure BDA00001743504300012
(reacting 2)
Figure BDA00001743504300013
(reacting 3)
Conventional methanation is based on reaction 1, and it requires H 2the mol ratio of/CO is about 3:1, and acid methanation mainly based on the reaction 2, it requires H 2the mol ratio of/CO is 1:1.With conventional methanation, compare, acid methanation possesses following advantage: 1) required H in feed gas 2still less, the unstrpped gas pretreatment therefore needed also still less; 2) some acid methanation catalyst shows high sulfidation resistance, and therefore, pre-desulfurization can be omitted in some cases; And 3) the catalyst carbon fouling that occurs in conventional methanation can not occur, catalyst life is longer thus.
Methanation reaction is reversible reaction.According to Thermodynamic Law, CO 2existence will make molecular balance move to the left, thereby make the reaction direction of carrying out be unfavorable for CH 4generation.Therefore, CO 2cH 4the inhibitor generated, it has reduced reaction rate, has also reduced the maximum conversion of product.In conventional commercial run, along with CO 2accumulation in methanation, reaction speed will slow down gradually, and the conversion ratio of product will significantly reduce.
The CO formed in acid methanation 2not only to system, bring the restriction on thermodynamics.The CO produced in methanation 2as accessory substance and CH 4be present in together in system, therefore must remove, the method for removing well known by persons skilled in the art comprises Seloxol, MDEA, lime absorption etc.This type of is CO independently 2remove or CH 4purification process has also significantly increased the totle drilling cost of methanation.Such CO 2removal is CH 4the part of product postprocessing, rather than the part of methanation itself.
It is H that the synthesis gas that gasification produces contains principal mode 2the sulphur component of S and COS, this sulphur component can make methanation catalyst poisoning, therefore must before methanation, from charging, remove.Industrial, synthesis gas has passed through the deep purifying cell processing before entering methanation, makes sulfur content be reduced to 0.1ppm.This type of deep purifying normally passes through one or more industrially desulfurized process implementations, such as Rectisol and Selexol etc.Preliminary clearning has significantly increased capital input.In addition, this type of purification method needs low temperature (room temperature or lower), so the hot synthesis gas that gasification unit is produced must lower the temperature, and this will cause energy efficiency to reduce.
US6610264 discloses a kind of method and system of removing sulphur from admixture of gas, and this system can be used to separate sulfide gas from above-mentioned raw material of synthetic gas.Simultaneously, US7713421 discloses a kind of for remove the method for some component from fluid mixture, and wherein sorbent structure can adsorb the gas component that some comprises above-mentioned sulfide gas.
Although there is high catalyst for methanation in presence of sulfur, for example comprise the catalyst for methanation in presence of sulfur of disclosed molybdenum and lanthanum element or actinium element in US5141191, the price of this type of catalyst is very high.In addition, owing to not comprising regenerative system in system, fouled catalyst accumulates in system, can cause reduction or the loss of catalyst activity and selectivity.In addition, it is fully out of service that more catalyst changeout requires system, causes thus cost to roll up.Therefore, need to find the method in extending catalyst life-span.
A kind of method that US4774261 discloses sulfur resistant catalyst and use this catalyst under the existence of sulphur.But, under these type of process conditions, excessive CO 2produce and accumulate with methanation, thereby cause chemical balance to shift to the direction with the methanation opposite direction, suppressed thus CH 4generation, limited CH 4maximum conversion rate.Therefore, in product, a large amount of unconverted synthesis gas be left behind, and calorific value reduces.In the case, necessary further purified product, so that the product of production pipe stage quality.
Except CO 2excessive accumulation and catalyst because of sulfide gas poisoning outside, also there is following problem in methanation method of the prior art.
Due to exothermic heat of reaction, low temperature is for CH 4production be favourable.As a result, for fear of the restriction on thermodynamics, wish to use the operating temperature of about 300-400 ℃ to obtain acceptable conversion ratio.But the reaction rate obtained at such temperature is lower, therefore need very large reactor and/or a large amount of recirculated water steam to complete reaction, this will significantly increase capital input.In addition, the anti-sulphur of catalyst is lowered at a lower temperature, and catalyst life is shortened thus.
Also have, the height exothermic character of reaction has improved the requirement that heat is transmitted.From equipment, for example multi-tubular heat exchanger or interstage cooler heat spread out of in reaction system, requiring must be well-designed, and this has increased complexity and the capital input of operation.
In addition, in this area, in the system of being everlasting, use heat exchanger so that reaction heat is spread out of to system, thereby control reaction temperature and produce electric power or driving device equipment by the vapours obtained.Do like this and need high reaction temperature, still, as mentioned above, high reaction temperature is but disadvantageous for reaction.
CN102040441, CN101982448, CN102371136 and CN102126906 disclose a kind of production and have been rich in CH 4the system of gas and produce and be rich in CH by this system 4the method of gas.Although said method has all been taked methanation reaction and CO 2and sulfide gas adsorbs the technical thought of simultaneously carrying out, but, aspect methanation catalyst and spent sorbents physical separation, but adopted respectively the poor use of the fluid height descending funnel that relies on methanation catalyst and spent sorbents or down pipe is separated, the method for by interlaced sandwich, being separated or being separated with monolithic structure.These separation methods have been obtained technique effect preferably, but the abrasion of methanation catalyst or loss, methanation reaction and CO 2and still may life period between sulfide gas absorption poor and methanation catalyst is non-exchange or be difficult to change and be still technical problem very important when reality is used.
All disclosures of above-mentioned document are introduced with for referencial use in full at this.
The object of the invention is in the situation that overcome the acid methanation that above one or more even all problems is implemented synthesis gas.

As a generality embodiment of the present invention, with the reactor assembly that comprises reactor 100 and at least one adsorbent reactivation device 200 shown in Fig. 1, implement methanation method of the present invention.Reactor 100 is for carrying out the methanation reaction of synthesis gas, simultaneously by remove fast CO from reactor 100 with adsorbent 2and sulfide gas.Adsorbent reactivation device 200 is converted into reproducing adsorbent by spent sorbents, and it is looped back in reactor 100.
Synthesis gas can enter in the space under the reaction-adsorption zone 105 in reactor 100 by entrance 101 as pan feeding, and enters subsequently in reaction-adsorption zone 105.On the other hand, the adsorbent of fresh/regeneration is added in reaction-adsorption zone 105 by its conveyance conduit 104, at this and CO 2with the sulfide gas reaction, to catch CO 2and sulfide gas, absorption reaches saturated spent sorbents subsequently under the effect of fluidisation power, enters in the space on reaction-adsorption zone 105, and finally by its conveyance conduit 103, leaves reactor 100.Reaction-adsorption zone 105 has held catalyst granules and absorbent particles simultaneously, thereby makes methanation reaction and the CO of synthesis gas 2with the removal of sulfide gas, can carry out simultaneously.In other words, in reaction-adsorption zone 105, synthesis gas is converted into CH under the existence of methanation catalyst 4and CO 2, while CO 2be adsorbed agent quick adsorption and/or absorption with sulfide gas.
While carrying out under the catalytic action of methanation reaction at catalyst of synthesis gas, once fresh/regeneration adsorbent stream around catalyst, CO 2with sulfide gas, just by absorption or absorption, removed fast.Like this, CO 2the reaction site that realizes its catalysis from catalyst is removed, and the balance of methanation reaction is moved toward generation CH 4direction, make methanation can reach conversion ratio almost completely.Simultaneously, sulfide gas realizes that from catalyst the reaction site of its catalysis is adsorbed and removes, the anti-sulphur requirement of catalyst is reduced greatly, can in system, use thus the catalyst without anti-sulphur or low anti-sulphur, such catalyst is wanted considerably cheaper usually compared with corresponding sulfur resistant catalyst.In addition, by absorption and/or absorption, CO 2with sulfide gas from being rich in CH 4gas in be removed, can obtain the highly purified CH of being rich in like this 4gas, be rich in CH 4the purification of gaseous product will become and be more prone to, and even no longer need to be rich in CH 4the purification of gaseous product.After reaction-adsorption zone 105, can reach the unidirectional conversion ratio of reaction almost completely, so downstream CH 4the burden of purifying reduces greatly.
As discussed in detail below with reference to Fig. 4 and Fig. 5, in a reactor 100, can there are a plurality of reaction-adsorption zones 105.In the case, each reaction-adsorption zone 105 can comprise for realizing identical or different catalyst and/or the absorbent particles of identical or different function.Simultaneously, also can be on reaction-adsorption zone 105, between and under insert one or more adsorption zones 105 '.Depend on the quality of synthesis gas, the type of adsorbent and the type of catalyst, can adjust the distribution in these districts to obtain desired adsorption strength.

Reaction-adsorption zone 105 can possess different structures.For example, reaction-adsorption zone 105 can comprise catalyst fixed bed, and adsorbent flows through from this fixed bed.But in a preferred embodiment of the invention, use the fluid bed of catalyst and absorbent particles in reaction-adsorption zone 105, wherein by applying magnetic field, make magnetic methanation catalyst particle produce the magnetic force that direction is contrary with its fluidisation force direction, offset its fluidisation power and other flowing reactive thing motive force to it so that its reactant mobile with respect to other in described reaction-adsorption zone 105 in substantially static state.Like this, the methanation catalyst particle is retained in reaction-adsorption zone 105 under magnetic fields, other fluidisation such as magnetic spent sorbents particle of tool or mobile reaction mass do not leave reaction-adsorption zone 105, and finally leave reactor 100, thereby, realize automatically separating of methanation catalyst particle and mobile spent sorbents particle.
Fig. 2 has shown a kind of preferred embodiment of the reaction-adsorption zone 105 in Fig. 1, wherein reaction-adsorption zone 105 comprises fluid bed 106, spouted bed for example, fresh/reproducing adsorbent enters the bottom of fluid bed 106 downwards by downcomer or hollow tube (not shown), be fluidized subsequently bed upwards fluidisation quick adsorption CO wherein 2and sulfide gas.In the process of the floating movement that makes progress by fluidisation, fresh/reproducing adsorbent completes adsorption process and due to the saturated spent sorbents that becomes of absorption, finally under the effect of fluidisation power, and mobile reactant, for example CH with other 4, H 2leave reaction-adsorption zone 105, and finally leave reactor 100, and the magnetic methanation catalyst particle of tool still rests in reaction-adsorption zone 105 owing to being subject to magnetic fields to keep relatively static, unless needed to change fresh catalyst.With being rich in CH 4and H 2the product gas spent sorbents particle that leaves reaction-adsorption zone 105 through gas-solid separator, for example cyclone cluster 111, realize separating with product gas, and enter regeneration in adsorbent reactivation device 200 through its conveyance conduit 103.
Key of the present invention is to realize that the methanation catalyst particle separates with the automatic of spent sorbents particle, and the key that reaches this purpose is to make the methanation catalyst particle have stronger magnetic, so that it can be retained in reaction-adsorption zone 105 under magnetic fields, and the spent sorbents particle is subject to the effect of fluidisation power to leave reaction-adsorption zone 105 owing to not possessing magnetic or magnetic a little less than.But well-known, conventional or known methanation catalyst or do not possess magnetic, or magnetic a little less than, for example be carried in oxide carrier, as Al 2o 3, SiO 2, or TiO 2on Mo, Ni, Co, Ru, Fe, Rh, Pd and/or Cr catalyst based.Yet, by the coating technology of present maturation, form and take the composite particles that magnetic material is core, can give above-mentioned methanation catalyst particle magnetic characteristic.Through great many of experiments and theory analysis, we find: can effectively offset gas-solid biphasic reaction logistics fluidisation or the external force that flows to the motive force that wherein catalyst granules produces is the direction magnetic force contrary with above-mentioned motive force that while applying external magnetic field, magnetic catalyst granule produces.
Above-mentioned technical Analysis is that catalyst granules of the present invention is realized the theoretical foundation of automatically separating with the spent sorbents particle, but the environment in the gas-solid biphasic reaction logistics of catalyst granules in flowing is complicated, biphasic reaction logistics fluidisation or flow to the motive force of catalyst granules may be in time, place is different and different, this magnetic force of with regard to needs, offsetting above-mentioned motive force also because of this in time, place is different, compares difference when particularly there is externally-applied magnetic field in catalyst granules being distributed in gas-solid biphasic reaction logistics and do not have externally-applied magnetic field; Weak, in, under strong magnetic field action, the distribution of magnetic solid catalyst particle in gas-solid two phase materials is also different.
Fig. 3 mean the magnetic solid granulates weak, in, distribution under strong magnetic field action in gas-solid two phase materials.As shown in Figure 3, (magnetic field intensity: H=532.38A/m) under the low-intensity magnetic field effect, the magnetic solid granulates, particularly particle diameter is less, for example particle diameter is less than the particle of 150 microns is all even homogeneous distribution in gas-solid two phase materials, be the shot state, for catalyst granules, this is optimal distribution, this state can guarantee catalyst granules equal even homogeneous distribution in gas-solid biphasic reaction material, being beneficial to catalytic reaction carries out, can guarantee again when gas-solid biphasic reaction material during in fluidisation or flow regime, it is relatively static that catalyst granules can keep, or faint drift only appears, because the resistance that now the catalyst granules flow produces is less.(magnetic field intensity: H=3194.26A/m) under middle magnetic fields, the magnetic solid granulates is directional profile in gas-solid biphasic reaction material, be the chain type state, now the magnetic solid granulates is non-homogeneous and inhomogeneous distribution in gas-solid two phase materials, when the magnetic solid granulates is catalyst granules, it is difficult at gas-solid biphasic reaction goods fluid or when mobile keep relatively static, because the resistance that now the catalyst granules flow produces is larger, again due to the catalyst granules skewness, this state also is unfavorable for that catalytic reaction carries out.(magnetic field intensity: H=6388.52A/m) under strong magnetic field action, the magnetic solid granulates is in gas-solid two phase materials assembles distribution, be the poly-state of magnetic, it is least even that this state distributes the magnetic solid granulates in gas-solid two phase materials, when the magnetic solid granulates is catalyst granules, it can't keep relatively static at gas-solid biphasic reaction goods fluid or when mobile, because the resistance maximum that now the catalyst granules flow produces, this state also is most disadvantageous in catalytic reaction to carry out.Therefore, in the present invention, except the adsorbent exit of absorption-reaction zone 105, the distribution of catalyst in gas-solid biphasic reaction material should as much as possible avoid occurring chain type state and the poly-state of magnetic, and makes it remain under the shot state as far as possible.
Certainly, when gas-solid biphasic reaction material during in fluidisation or flow regime, catalyst granules wants to realize relatively static, except magnetic field intensity, also need to consider other many-sided factor, for example, the size of catalyst granules, form and density, the flow velocity of reaction logistics, solid content, gas content, form that fluid is mobile etc., only have above-mentioned factor and externally-applied magnetic field intensity to combine, acting in conjunction, form one when just in time offsetting gas-solid biphasic reaction goods fluid or flowing the motive force that catalyst granules is produced, catalyst granules could be realized relatively static.
As shown in Figure 2, comprise CO, CO 2, H 2, the synthesis gas of sulfide gas and optional steam can enter fluid bed 106 from the bottom (or top) of reaction-adsorption zone 105, and with magnetic catalyst granule 503 wherein with absorbent particles 505 is fluidized or flow, wherein magnetic catalyst granule 503 is subject to one and just in time offsets fluidisation or the mobile gas-solid biphasic reaction material motive force to it under externally-applied magnetic field 501 effect, thereby make its maintenance relatively static, and in contrast, absorbent particles 505 is owing to not having magnetic not to be subject to the effect of externally-applied magnetic field, leave reaction-adsorption zone 105 with the vapor reaction material, thereby automatically realized the physical separation of catalyst granules 503 and absorbent particles 505.
In order farthest to make, catalyst granules 503 is basic in reaction-adsorption zone 105 keeps static, in the side of reaction-adsorption zone 105 surrounding, at least one externally-applied magnetic field 501 is set, comprehensive above-mentioned other factors, the intensity of externally-applied magnetic field should make catalyst granules 503 be evenly distributed in gas-solid biphasic reaction material, and gas-solid biphasic reaction goods fluid or when mobile in relatively static state, the most desirable is in the shot state shown in Fig. 3, so farthest make catalyst granules 503 keep transfixion, guaranteed again efficiently to carry out catalytic reaction in reaction-adsorption zone 105.Although strive making catalyst granules 503 gas-solid biphasic reaction goods fluid or when mobile in relative static conditions, but the complexity due to gas-solid biphasic reaction Flow of Goods and Materials in reaction-adsorption zone 105, the reaction logistics is in zones of different, even the same area different time may have different nowed formings and distribution situation, and this makes motion or the movement of sometimes definitely stopping catalyst granules 503 is impossible.
In order to make it is all, at least that most catalyst granules 503 is in relative static conditions or faint drift only occurs, externally-applied magnetic field intensity is preferably transformable along reaction-adsorption zone 105 longitudinal directions (axial direction) or the mobile direction of reaction mass, or at reaction-adsorption zone 105 some FX, Zone Full even, magnetic field intensity in time or the difference of reactor 100 running statuses also can change.The benefit of doing like this is: when motion or mobile sign appear in magnetic solid catalyst particle; serious drift for example appears; this explanation externally-applied magnetic field gives the magnetic force of catalyst granules and gas-solid biphasic reaction Flow of Goods and Materials to unbalance between the motive force of catalyst granules; in order again to reach balance; can increase or reduce the magnetic force that gives catalyst granules by variation magnetic field intensity, and make catalyst granules get back to former position.
Sometimes, if do not reach good coupling or coordination between reactor 100 each operational factors, have few partially catalyzed agent particle 503 and be entrained with reaction-adsorption zone 105, in order to prevent this situation, as shown in Figure 2, in reaction-adsorption zone 105 adsorbent exits, the intensity of externally-applied magnetic field is set to maximum, thereby make few partially catalyzed agent particle 503 when reaching herein, being subject to powerful magnetic field force pulls back, in order to stop it to leave reaction-adsorption zone 105, to prevent the loss of catalyst granules 503.
As everyone knows, any catalyst has certain service life, after catalyst granules 503 in reaction-adsorption zone 105 has reached the inactivation in service life, just need to change fresh catalyst, at this moment, need to cancel externally-applied magnetic field, after externally-applied magnetic field gives the magnetic force disappearance of catalyst granules, spent catalyst particles is under the gas-solid biphasic reaction logistics flowed promotes, leave reaction-adsorption zone 105, and finally leave reactor 100, and fresh catalyst granules through feed arrangement from reactor 100 bottoms or top enter reaction-adsorption zone 105, and again in gas-solid biphasic reaction material, be all even homogeneous distribution states, thereby realize the original dead catalyst of online updating.Like this, the renewal of catalyst will become and be very easy to simple.
In the present invention, the generator that produces externally-applied magnetic field is that direct current or alternating current are through therebetween, and surround the coil of described reaction-adsorption zone 105, one of such magnetic field generator, but preferably a plurality of, can be formed on so the different distribution of reaction-adsorption zone 105 zones of different magnetic field intensity, in order to determine different magnetic field intensities according to operational factor and liquid form or the state of gas-solid biphasic reaction material in reaction-adsorption zone 105 zoness of different of reactor 100, especially, near the 105 adsorbent outlets of reaction-adsorption zone, maximum magnetic field intensity can be set, like this, even certain movement or drift appear in catalyst granules 503 when gas-solid biphasic reaction Flow of Goods and Materials, but when it arrives the adsorbent exit, owing to being subject to the just in time magneticaction contrary with its moving direction of powerful direction, it can't leave reaction-adsorption zone 105 with absorbent particles 505 and gaseous reactant stream, absorbent particles 505 and gaseous reactant flow can leave reaction-adsorption zone 105 unobstructedly.And, as long as catalyst granules 503 does not leave reaction-adsorption zone 105, just can, by adjusting magnetic field intensity, make catalyst granules 503 come back to original position.
To achieve these goals, magnetic field intensity can be 1000-10000A/m near reaction-adsorption zone 105 adsorbent exits or its, but is preferably 2000-7000A/m; And can be 100-3000 in other zone, but be preferably 300-2000A/m.Final magnetic field intensity depends on the operational factor of reactor, the character of reactant and product and gas-solid biphasic reaction Flow of Goods and Materials form etc.
Amid all these factors, the intensity of externally-applied magnetic field should make catalyst granules 503 be evenly distributed in gas-solid biphasic reaction material, and gas-solid biphasic reaction goods fluid or when mobile in relatively static state, the most desirable in the shot state shown in Fig. 1, so, can farthest make catalyst granules 503 keep transfixion, guarantee again efficiently to carry out catalytic reaction in reaction-adsorption zone 105.
