Description

Method for collecting light hydrocarbons in natural gas in laboratory, online circulation system and application
Technical Field
The invention relates to the field of gas geochemical analysis, in particular to a method and a system for collecting light hydrocarbon in natural gas.
Background
Light hydrocarbon (C)5-C8) The natural gas is one of the important components of natural gas, contains extremely important and abundant geochemical information, and light hydrocarbon geochemical indexes can be used for determining the maturity of the natural gas, identifying the gas reservoir which is subjected to water washing or biodegradation, tracing the source of the natural gas and dividing the cause type of the natural gas.
The crude oil sample contains a large amount of volatile light hydrocarbon components, so that the light hydrocarbon components can be analyzed by using gas chromatography or high performance liquid chromatography; however, the content of light hydrocarbon components in natural gas is very low, particularly the content of methane in dry gas reaches more than 95%, and other hydrocarbon components are very little, so that during gas chromatography detection, only a few components such as methane, ethane and the like, namely light hydrocarbon components (C)5-C8) The content cannot be detected because it does not reach the chromatographic detection limit. Due to the limitation of analysis technology, the scientific research on light hydrocarbon components in natural gas is slow and inferior to the research work on light hydrocarbon in crude oil and hydrocarbon source rocks, and the gas-oil-source comparison work in geological science is hindered. Therefore, how to accurately and conveniently analyze the trace light hydrocarbon in the natural gas by using the gas chromatograph is a focus of the analysis and test technology.
Detecting light hydrocarbon components in the natural gas, and firstly carrying out enrichment pretreatment on the light hydrocarbon in the natural gas. The existing gas washing method, thermal evaporation method, rock sealing extraction, rock low boiling point light hydrocarbon extraction method and adsorption-acid hydrolysis hydrocarbon analysis method are only suitable for crude oil and hydrocarbon source rock samples with higher light hydrocarbon content, while the slow curtain (1990) design pressurizing sampling method is only suitable for analyzing natural gas with higher humidity, and the natural gas steel cylinder needs to be heated to 120 ℃, so that great potential safety hazard exists; the quartz tube enrichment method disclosed by Zhang Hei et al (1994) has limited gas volume of the collected natural gas, and the six-way valve part is easy to generate errors, and light hydrocarbon components cannot be accurately detected. In recent years, studies have been conducted on the analysis of light hydrocarbons in natural gas by using Solid Phase Microextraction (SPME) technology (Li et)

2014) However, butThe method is not mature, and the detection of light hydrocarbon components in natural gas cannot be realized at present. Wangshun jade and the like disclose a natural gas C3-C8A new method for the analysis of hydrocarbon concentrates, which makes C for the direct collection of a concentrated sample of natural gas at an onsite wellhead3-C8In the hydrocarbon concentrator, however, it is necessary to perform a treatment such as elution of an impurity gas such as methane or ethane in the concentrator during the detection.

Example 2 on-line circulation collection method of light hydrocarbon in natural gas
The method for collecting light hydrocarbon in natural gas by using the system provided by the embodiment 1 comprises the following steps:
1. mounting connection for natural gas storage device
Firstly, the high-pressure steel cylinder 11 for collecting natural gas is connected into the circulating adsorption system by using the connecting piece 12 according to the structural connection relationship provided in the embodiment 1, and the through valves 13 at two ends of the high-pressure steel cylinder are in a closed state.
2. Test for gas tightness
And (3) closing the gas taking port, carrying out leak detection on the circulating adsorption system connected with the high-pressure steel cylinder 11, checking whether the gas tightness of each part of the system is good, adopting a conventional method in the field for the leak detection method, observing whether the vacuum gauge changes by closing the valve 55, judging that the gas tightness of the circulating system is good if the reading of the vacuum gauge does not change greatly, and indicating that the gas tightness of the system is poor if the reading of the vacuum gauge is increased.
3. Building a vacuum circulation System
The vacuum pump 52 is turned on and the line valve 53 and valves 54, 55 are opened, as the vacuum gauge is shown
Figure BDA0002559348060000062
Figure BDA0002559348060000071
At this point, valve 55 is closed, and the system is purged of air. Then the straight-through valves 13 at the two ends of the high-pressure steel cylinder are slowly opened, and the micro air pump 4 is simultaneously opened, so that the natural gas in the system generates directional circulating flow due to the pressure difference generated at the two ends of the air pump.
4. Adsorption of light hydrocarbons in natural gas
The natural gas flows out from one end of the high-pressure steel cylinder 11 and flows through the U-shaped pipe 2 along the vacuum pipeline 5 due to the action of the micro air pump 4
Figure BDA0002559348060000072
A molecular sieve is used for the molecular sieve,
Figure BDA0002559348060000073
the molecular sieve absorbs light hydrocarbon in the natural gas, the residual natural gas returns to the high-pressure steel cylinder 11, and when the natural gas continuously flows out of the high-pressure steel cylinder, passes through the U-shaped pipe 2 and then continuously flows into the high-pressure steel cylinder 11, the natural gas and the natural gas are enabled to be mixed
Figure BDA0002559348060000074
The molecular sieve is contacted repeatedly, and light hydrocarbon in the natural gas is continuously in
Figure BDA0002559348060000075
And (4) enriching in the molecular sieve.
5. Extraction of light hydrocarbons from natural gas
After the light hydrocarbon adsorption is completed, the valve 55 is opened, and the vacuum pump 52 is started to discharge the impurity gas. Then, the valve 53 and the valve 54 are closed, the heating device 31 is opened to heat the U-shaped tube, so that the light hydrocarbon components adsorbed by the molecular sieve are desorbed, after a period of heating, the light hydrocarbon gas is taken from the gas taking port by using the existing quantitative sampling equipment, for example, an external device with a fixed volume of saturated saline water is connected with the gas taking port, and the light hydrocarbon is quantitatively taken. Because the light hydrocarbon adopted by the method has high purity, the light hydrocarbon collected from the gas taking port can be directly used for gas chromatography detection, thereby carrying out gas geochemical analysis.
Application examples
A high-pressure steel cylinder having a capacity of 1L was connected to the adsorption system of example 1, and 3g of the solution was charged in a U-shaped tube in the adsorption system
Figure BDA0002559348060000076
Molecular sieves are subjected to daughter-in-law and collection of light hydrocarbons using the method provided in example 2.
Specifically, the adsorption time is 30-60min, the impurity gas discharge time is 30s, the heating temperature is less than 300 ℃, and the heating time is 2 min.
Detecting that the impurity gas is methane, ethane, propane, isobutane and normal butane; the gas collected from the gas extraction port is isopentane, n-pentane, 2-dimethylbutane, cyclopentane +2, 3-dimethylbutane, 2-methylpentane, 3-methylpentane, n-hexane, methylcyclopentane.
Therefore, the on-line circulation collection system for light hydrocarbon in natural gas provided by the invention can efficiently and accurately collect light hydrocarbon gas in natural gas with extremely low content.
The following are some of the tests performed during the development of the present invention, in particular:
test example 1 adsorption Effect test of Components at different adsorption times
In order to study in the circulatory system
Figure BDA0002559348060000082
The adsorption behavior of the molecular sieve on the light hydrocarbon components of the natural gas selects different adsorption time for testing, which respectively comprises the following steps: 5min, 10min, 30min, 60min, 150min, 300min, the desorption temperature of the sample is from 15 minThe temperature is 0-500 deg.C, and is divided into 150 deg.C, 200 deg.C, 250 deg.C, 300 deg.C, 350 deg.C, 400 deg.C, 450 deg.C, and 500 deg.C. The sample volume during chromatographic detection is all 0.5mL, so that in order to avoid various accidental errors caused by single sample introduction, the samples collected in each adsorption time period are tested repeatedly for multiple times (n is more than or equal to 5), and an average value is taken. After the molecular sieve passes through different adsorption time, the total amount of adsorbed light hydrocarbon is the sum of the gas amount analyzed at each temperature point. The experimental data are shown in table 1, fig. 2 and fig. 3.
TABLE 1 adsorption content of various components of molecular sieves at different adsorption times
Figure BDA0002559348060000081
Note: the amounts of the components are expressed as the area of the chromatographic peak (mV. s), and the data in the table is the sum of the amounts of gases desorbed from each component at six temperature points, 150 ℃, 200 ℃, 250 ℃, 300 ℃, 350 ℃, 400 ℃, 450 ℃ and 500 ℃.
From the results in table 1 and fig. 1, it can be seen that the adsorption capacity of the molecular sieve to propane, n-butane, n-pentane, 2-dimethylbutane, cyclopentane +2, 3-dimethylbutane, 2-methylpentane, 3-methylpentane, n-hexane, methylcyclopentane increased with time before 60min, reached a maximum between 30 and 60min, and then decreased with increasing adsorption time. Indicating that the molecular sieve has a unimodal distribution of the adsorption of these components over time. Although the adsorption amount of the molecular sieve to methane, ethane, isobutane and isopentane fluctuates greatly with time as shown in fig. 2, the trend of the total adsorption amount of the molecular sieve is still maximum between 30min and 60min within the same adsorption time. After 60min, the adsorption capacity begins to decrease, and it can be seen that the molecular sieve starts to diffuse after adsorption reaches equilibrium.
It can also be seen from FIG. 2 that the adsorption of methane is minimal at 30min and that the adsorption of the other components is substantially maximal at 30min. Thus setting the adsorption time at 30min effectively filters out the main Component (CH) in the natural gas4) Thereby achieving the purpose of light hydrocarbon concentration.
Through the analysis, the optimal adsorption time of 30min can be obtained.
Test example 2 contents of respective components released at different desorption temperatures
According to the test analysis results of test example 1, the applicant desorbed hydrocarbons from the molecular sieve in the circulation system at eight temperature points of 150 ℃, 200 ℃, 250 ℃, 300 ℃, 350 ℃, 400 ℃, 450 ℃ and 500 ℃ respectively, with the temperature error controlled within + -10 ℃. The composition data thus obtained are shown in Table 2 and FIG. 4.
TABLE 2 content of components released at different desorption temperatures
Figure BDA0002559348060000091
Note: the data in the table are the peak areas (mV. s) of the chromatogram for each component
It can be seen from table 2 and fig. 4 that the total amount of gas released is maximum when the desorption temperature is 300 deg.c. The amount of gas released before 300 ℃ gradually increases; after the desorption temperature exceeds 300 ℃, the amount of desorbed gas is reduced sharply. Indicating that most of light hydrocarbon components absorbed by the molecular sieve can be released at 300 ℃.
According to the change curve of the release amount of each component in the molecular sieve with the desorption temperature shown in fig. 5, the desorption amounts of components such as methane, ethane, isopentane, 2-dimethylbutane and the like are reduced with the increase of the desorption temperature, and isobutane is basically and completely released before 300 ℃. Indicating that these components can be released from the molecular sieve at a lower desorption temperature. The desorption amount of components such as propane, n-butane, n-pentane and n-hexane reaches the maximum at 300 ℃. The methane content in the adsorbed gas is obviously reduced, which shows that the 5A molecular sieve also has the functions of filtering methane and concentrating light hydrocarbon.
It can also be seen from fig. 5 that methane and ethane have the lowest content in the desorbed gas at 300 ℃ and 350 ℃, the content of the components after isopentane in the desorbed gas gradually increases with the increase of temperature, and the effect that the content of the components with higher carbon number increases with the increase of temperature is more obvious because the thermodynamic property of the hydrocarbon molecule with higher carbon number determines that the hydrocarbon molecule with higher carbon number needs higher desorption temperature to be separated from the desorbed gasAnd (3) a molecular sieve. Sample after 5A molecular sieve adsorption and C compared to the original sample composition5 +The component concentration is obviously increased.
