The low-temperature condensation method is a method widely adopted for extracting helium from natural gas in various countries in the world at present. Firstly, impurities such as hydrogen sulfide, carbon dioxide, moisture and even mercury in a helium-containing gas source need to be purified before entering a low-temperature device, then natural gas is secondarily condensed to prepare crude helium with the helium content of about 60%, hydrogen which is difficult to liquefy in the natural gas is concentrated in the crude helium along with the concentration of the helium and needs to be removed before refining, in the process of removing the hydrogen from the crude helium, the content of the hydrogen reaches more than 10%, so the temperature rise in the catalytic combustion process of the hydrogen in the crude helium is high, which is not beneficial to the control of reaction, a common mode is to dilute the concentration of the hydrogen by adding excessive air or carry out multi-stage catalytic combustion, the concentration of the helium is diluted by the first process, the helium needs to be concentrated again, and the multi-stage hydrogen catalytic reactor of the second process has more equipment, large equipment investment and large occupied area.
