Description

A kind of methanator and methanation process
Technical field
The present invention relates to a kind of methanator and methanation process.
Background technique
Methanator is one of the core equipment of natural gas from coal project.Methanation reaction is that strong heat release is anti- It answers, there is CO and CO during synthesis gas methanation reaction2Competition methanation reaction and high temperature under coal gas against the current become Reaction is changed, efficient heat and mass transfer is control CO and CO2Compete the key of methanation and high temperature Reversed Water-gas Shift.Study table It is bright, the CO or CO of every conversion 1%2Producible adiabatic temperature rise has respectively reached 70 DEG C or 60 DEG C.In order to control methanation reaction Temperature recycles a large amount of thermal energy generated in reaction, and industrialization methanation process is contacted using multiple fixed bed methanators, Methanation reaction is carried out step by step.Realize that there are Davy company of Britain, Denmark in the company of methanation patented technology business applicationThe Lugri company of company and Germany.
There are mainly of two types for methanator at present, and one is axially-located bed reactor, another kind is radial solid Fixed bed reactor.Axial methanator design, process are relatively easy, easy to operate, but there are reactor apparatus rulers Very little huge, bed pressure drop is big, be easy to appear local run aways, move heat slowly, conversion ratio is low, enlarge-effect is obvious and reactor need to The problems such as wanting material grade high.Radial bed reactor ratio of height to diameter is larger, bed pressure drop is small, reactant is when catalyst bed stops Between it is short, but reactant difficult to realize it is in the radial direction be uniformly distributed, the production intensity of unit catalyst bed it is lower.
Low in the presence of heat transfer, mass-transfer efficiency in traditional chemical industry in order to overcome the problems, such as, twentieth century the 80s and 90s rises Micro- Chemical Engineering Technology.Core component of the microreactor as micro- Chemical Engineering Technology, it is anti-as the chemistry of magnitude using millimeter, micron Answer system.One side microreactor has minute yardstick, biggish specific surface, diffusion length is short, the residence time is short, resistance is small etc. Feature, mass transfer, heat transfer and reaction effect the 1-3 order of magnitude high compared with common response device;It on the other hand, can be according to actual industry Production capacity requirement, is integrated by the microreactor module with functionalization and the increase and decrease of quantity reaches control and adjusts life It produces, is advantageously implemented the maximum utilization efficiency of equipment, while shortening the process time of equipment.
Micro passage reaction is also rarely reported as one kind in microreactor, by it with methanation reaction. CN201320593757.7 discloses a kind of micro passage reaction for methanation process, which is fixed on reaction In support plate in the middle part of device, it is difficult to eliminate the stress for generation of expanding with heat and contract with cold;CN201110030881.8 discloses a kind of microchannel The method of reactor and its synthesis gas full methanation, the microreactor is by several reaction channels and moves passage of heat alternating parallel row The pressure drop of cloth, reactor is larger, while being difficult to bear high pressure.
Therefore, per volume of catalyst production intensity, the equipment size for reducing reactor, shortening gas are improved in catalyst Superficial residence time reduces reactor pressure decrease loss, improves the transformation efficiency of reactant, and sufficiently extend catalyst uses the longevity Life, meeting the needs of reactor is enlarged is a technical problem to be solved urgently.
