Description

一种混空煤层气中甲烷的分离方法及其系统A method and system for separating methane in mixed air coalbed methane

技术领域technical field

本发明涉及一种混空煤层气中甲烷的分离方法及其系统,属于化工技术领域。The invention relates to a method and system for separating methane in air-mixed coal bed gas, belonging to the technical field of chemical industry.

背景技术Background technique

煤层气(CoalBedMethane,简称CBM),又称煤矿瓦斯或矿井瓦斯,产生于成煤过程,主要以吸附状态赋存于煤层中,是一种以甲烷为主要成分的非常规天然气资源。Coal Bed Methane (CBM for short), also known as coal mine gas or mine gas, is produced in the coal-forming process and mainly exists in coal seams in an adsorbed state. It is an unconventional natural gas resource with methane as the main component.

目前,开采煤层气的主要方式为地面钻井和井下抽采。地面钻井技术在国外煤层气的开发中应用比较多,而中国地质情况复杂,大部分煤层的透气性比较差,受技术以及地质条件的制约,当前中国煤层气的开发中应用比较多的还是井下抽采技术。采用直接钻井技术得到的煤层气中甲烷含量一般大于90%,与常规的天然气组成相近,可直接利用已经比较成熟的天然气预处理工艺加工净化,然后直接液化储运或加压后通入天然气管网。采用井下抽采技术得到的煤层气一般都会混入空气,甲烷含量比较低(通常体积分数在30%-80%),目前只有很少部分的井下抽采煤层气得到了有效利用,大部分被直接排入大气中,造成了很大的资源浪费和环境污染。At present, the main methods of mining coalbed methane are surface drilling and underground extraction. Surface drilling technology is widely used in the development of coalbed methane in foreign countries. However, China's geological conditions are complex, and most of the coal seams have relatively poor air permeability. Restricted by technology and geological conditions, the current development of coalbed methane in China is mostly used underground Extraction technology. The methane content in coalbed methane obtained by direct drilling technology is generally greater than 90%, which is similar to the composition of conventional natural gas. It can be directly processed and purified by relatively mature natural gas pretreatment technology, and then directly liquefied, stored and transported or put into natural gas pipelines after pressurization network. The coalbed methane obtained by underground drainage technology is generally mixed with air, and the methane content is relatively low (usually the volume fraction is 30%-80%). Directly discharged into the atmosphere, resulting in a great waste of resources and environmental pollution.

近年来许多研究者对混空煤层气中甲烷的分离和回收进行了大量的研究,现有用于分离混空煤层气中甲烷的方法有低温深冷分离法、膜分离法、变压吸附分离法和水合物分离法。然而上述方法却存在不同的缺陷,制约了混空煤层气中甲烷的回收。In recent years, many researchers have conducted a lot of research on the separation and recovery of methane in mixed air coalbed methane. The existing methods for separating methane in air mixed coalbed methane include low-temperature cryogenic separation, membrane separation, and pressure swing adsorption separation. and hydrate separation method. However, the above methods have different defects, which restrict the recovery of methane in the mixed gas.

低温深冷分离技术是利用煤层气中各组分的沸点不同,采用低温精馏和液化的方式将各组分分离。该分离技术要求在-150℃左右进行操作,能耗较高,因为混空煤层气中含氧,需要首先进行脱氧,存在爆炸的危险;膜分离技术是根据混合气的各组分在一定压差下透过膜的传递速率不同而实现的。但是,目前所研制的膜材料对煤层气中的主要组分CH4和N2的分离效果不佳,同时也存在爆炸的危险;变压吸附分离技术是利用吸附剂在一定温度和压力下对混合气中各组分吸附能力的差异而实现的。经过几十年的发展,变压吸附分离H2、N2和O2等技术在世界范围内都已普遍使用,但目前在国内还没有使用变压吸附分离法分离混空煤层气的工业应用的实例。The low-temperature cryogenic separation technology utilizes the different boiling points of the components in coalbed methane, and separates the components by means of low-temperature rectification and liquefaction. This separation technology requires operation at around -150°C, and the energy consumption is relatively high. Because the mixed gas contains oxygen, it needs to be deoxidized first, and there is a risk of explosion. It is achieved by the difference in the transmission rate through the membrane under the difference. However, the currently developed membrane materials are not effective in separating CH 4 and N 2 , the main components in coalbed methane, and there is also a risk of explosion; It is realized by the difference in the adsorption capacity of each component in the mixed gas. After decades of development, technologies such as pressure swing adsorption separation of H 2 , N 2 and O 2 have been widely used in the world, but there is no industrial application of pressure swing adsorption separation method in China to separate mixed gas instance of .

上述三种分离技术均未实现工业化的主要原因在于混空煤层气极易爆炸,不能保证分离过程的安全。水合物分离法是一种新的分离低沸点混合气体的分离技术,原理是根据不同气体形成水合物的难易程度,从而实现混合气体中各组分的分离。现有水合物分离法能够使混空煤层气的分离在水饱和的环境下进行,但是因为水合物的分离需要在一定的压力下进行,前期对混空煤层气实施压缩升压过程中同样存在爆炸的危险同样难以采用。The main reason why the above three separation technologies have not been industrialized is that the mixed air CBM is extremely easy to explode, and the safety of the separation process cannot be guaranteed. The hydrate separation method is a new separation technology for separating low-boiling point mixed gases. The principle is to realize the separation of components in the mixed gas according to the difficulty of forming hydrates in different gases. The existing hydrate separation method can make the separation of air-mixed coalbed methane in a water-saturated environment, but because the separation of hydrates needs to be carried out under a certain pressure, there are also problems in the process of compressing and boosting the air-mixed coalbed methane in the early stage. The danger of explosion is equally difficult to adopt.

因此,如何研究出一种新的分离方法,实现混空煤层气中甲烷的分离和利用,很有必要。Therefore, it is very necessary to develop a new separation method to realize the separation and utilization of methane in mixed gas.

上述混空煤层气中甲烷的分离方法,主要利用了流体力学的原理,利用水合物工作液在水合反应器中的不同位置的流动与压力的变化规律,实现了混空煤层气的吸入、自升压以及水合分离的过程。具体表现在:将水合物工作液从水合反应器的入口段注入,当其到达水合反应器的喉管段时,由于流通截面积急剧缩小,从而使其流速突然增大,使水合反应器内的静压快速降低,在压力差的作用下,混空煤层气被吸入了水合反应器中与水合物工作液混合,当混空煤层气与水合物工作液到达水合反应器的稳定段时,由于流通截面积的扩大,从而使流体的静压升高,当流体的静压大于水合物的生成压力时,混空煤层气中的甲烷与水合物工作液发生水合反应,形成水合物浆液,而混空煤层气中所含空气的一部分气相得到富集形成甲烷贫气。The above separation method of methane in the mixed air-gas is mainly based on the principle of fluid mechanics, and utilizes the flow and pressure variation of the hydrate working fluid in different positions in the hydration reactor to realize the inhalation of the air-mixed coalbed methane, automatic The process of pressurization and hydration separation. Specifically, when the hydrate working fluid is injected from the inlet section of the hydration reactor, when it reaches the throat section of the hydration reactor, the flow rate suddenly increases due to the sharp reduction of the cross-sectional area of the hydration reactor.
