Description

The method that methane is extracted from containing methane, hydrogen, the gaseous mixture of nitrogen
Technical field
The present invention relates to a kind of method that methane is extracted from containing methane, hydrogen, the gaseous mixture of nitrogen.
Background technology
Coal bed gas, synthesis ammonia relief gas, coal upgrading pyrolysis tail gas etc. are the gaseous mixture containing elements such as methane, hydrogen, nitrogen, its Main component includes:CO2、H2、CH4、CO、H2O、N2And other hydro carbons and sulfide.
(mainly CH in current gaseous mixture4、H2And N2) methane separation technology has membrane separation process, pressure swing adsorption method.UF membrane Though technology is simple to operate, energy consumption is low, investment cost is larger, and separating effect is poor, though pressure swing adsorption method is convenient and swift, by Approached in the absorption property of methane and nitrogen, cause the rate of recovery of product gas relatively low, and be difficult to separate CH4And N2, and cryogenic rectification Technology can be directly separated out the methane and nitrogen of high-purity.
The content of the invention
Goal of the invention:The purpose of the present invention existing extracts first aiming at above-mentioned from containing methane, hydrogen, the gaseous mixture of nitrogen Deficiency present in the method for alkane can effectively extract the deep cooling high-low pressure tower rectification process of methane there is provided new.
Technical scheme:The invention provides a kind of method that methane is extracted from containing methane, hydrogen, the gaseous mixture of nitrogen:

Described main air enters main heat exchanger (E1), through heat exchange, after unstripped gas cooling or partial liquefaction, into high-pressure tower (T1) bottom, carries out preliminary rectifying separation;Wherein the volatile components rich in nitrogen are upward along tower height, in high-pressure tower (T1) tower Gaseous flow stock is drawn on top, into condenser/evaporator (E4), carries out partial condensation, and condensed liquid stream passes through a subcooler (E2) decompression, which enters, after being subcooled continues rectifying in the middle part of lower pressure column;
Described secondary air flow enters raw material expanding machine (EXP1), after decompression cooling, and high-pressure tower tower bottoms, into low pressure In the middle part of tower (T2), using high-pressure tower (T1) overhead condensation liquid air-flow as overhead reflux liquid, the distillation process of lower pressure column (T2) is carried out, The methane-rich liquid of lower pressure column tower reactor enters condenser/evaporator (E4) side, the high-pressure tower that the evaporator that is condensed (E4) opposite side comes The rich nitrogen on top is heated to part evaporation, and evaporation section is as the upflowing vapor of lower pressure column, and unvaporized portion is from condenser/evaporator (E4) air-flow is drawn in side, and product liquified natural gas is used as after being subcooled through subcooler.
5. method according to claim 4, it is characterised in that during other part cold can be followed by azeotrope compression Ring refrigeration is provided or nitrogen expansion mechanism SAPMAC method is provided.
6. method according to claim 4, it is characterised in that low pressure pressure tower is more than 0.01MPa, high pressure pressure tower is More than 0.4MPa.
