As the recovery process proceeds such that the gasified hydrocarbons in the absorption unit are continuously sucked into the recovery device, the liquid level of the liquefied hydrocarbons in the storage unit 30 is continuously raised, and therefore, the recovery system for liquefied hydrocarbons provided by the present invention may further include: and the output device 4 is used for outputting the liquefied hydrocarbon to the tank truck when the liquid level of the liquefied hydrocarbon in the storage unit 30 reaches a storage liquid level. The external transportation device 4 may include an external transportation pump 400, which may be disposed at a preset height of a storage liquid level in the storage unit 30, as shown in fig. 2, and controls the external transportation pump 400 to be turned on to output the liquefied hydrocarbons only when the liquid level of the liquefied hydrocarbons reaches the preset height, thereby completing the liquefied hydrocarbon recovery operation.
FIG. 3 is a flow diagram of a process for recovering a liquefied hydrocarbon loading raffinate in accordance with one embodiment of the present invention. As shown in FIG. 3, the present invention provides a method for recovering a liquefied hydrocarbon loading/unloading residue comprising: absorbing and gasifying liquefied hydrocarbons; monitoring the pressure within the absorption cell; controlling the opening and closing of the absorption units when the pressure in the absorption units reaches a certain preset value according to the monitored pressure in the absorption units, so that the gasified hydrocarbon enters another absorption unit or the gasified hydrocarbon in the absorption units enters a recovery device; and storing the recovered liquefied hydrocarbons.
Optionally, the method further includes: the liquefied hydrocarbons in the storage unit are transported to a tanker truck.
Specifically, the recovery system composed of the first absorption tank 100, the second absorption tank 101, the first pressure transmitter 110, the second pressure transmitter 111, the residual liquid tank 300, the centrifugal pump 310, the ejector 320 and the control device is used as an example to explain the recovery process for liquefied hydrocarbons provided by the present invention, as shown in fig. 2.
After the liquefied hydrocarbon loading and unloading operation is completed, the two ball valves at the crane pipe end and the tanker end are closed, the ball valve at the side branch of the crane pipe end and the electromagnetic valve are opened, and the liquefied hydrocarbon is gasified and rapidly enters the pipeline 102 once the electromagnetic valve is opened because the air pressure difference between the two sides of the electromagnetic valve is about 1.6MPa (the pipeline between the crane pipe end and the tanker end where the liquid hydrocarbon is left has a certain air pressure, and the pipeline 102 has almost no air pressure of about 0.03 MPa).
With the first solenoid valve 200 opened, the gasified hydrocarbon rapidly enters the first absorption tank 100 through the pipe 102, and since air does not exist in the first absorption tank 100, there is no risk of gas explosion when the gasified hydrocarbon enters the first absorption tank 100. The pressure of the gasified hydrocarbon in the first absorption tank 100 is gradually increased along with the continuous charging of the gasified hydrocarbon, and when the first pressure transmitter 110 monitors that the pressure value reaches a preset pressure (for example, 1.3MPa), the control device controls the first electromagnetic valve 200 to be closed and the second electromagnetic valve 201 to be opened, so that the gasified hydrocarbon is charged into the second absorption tank 101; and in the circulating process that the centrifugal pump 310 is started to suck and extrude the liquefied hydrocarbon in the residual liquid tank 300, the centrifugal pump 310 and the ejector 320 form a closed loop system, the third electromagnetic valve 210 is opened, the ejector 320 sucks the gasified hydrocarbon in the first absorption tank 100 into the ejector 320 by utilizing the negative pressure formed by the Venturi principle, the gasified hydrocarbon is subjected to pressure increase by the pressure expanding pipe of the ejector 320 and then is carried out in the residual liquid tank 300 together with the circulating liquid, and the gasified hydrocarbon is changed into the liquefied hydrocarbon again. As the process proceeds, the pressure of the gasified hydrocarbon in the first absorption tank 100 becomes lower and lower, and when the pressure drops to 0.03MPa, the control device controls the third electromagnetic valve 210 to be closed.
The pressure of the gasified hydrocarbon in the second absorption tank 101 is increased as the gasified hydrocarbon is continuously charged into the second absorption tank 101, and when the pressure of the gasified hydrocarbon in the second absorption tank 101 reaches the preset pressure (for example, 1.3MPa), the control device controls the second electromagnetic valve 201 to be closed and the first electromagnetic valve 200 to be opened so as to charge the gasified hydrocarbon into the first absorption tank 100; and in the circulating process that the centrifugal pump 310 is started to suck and extrude the liquefied hydrocarbon in the residual liquid tank 300, the centrifugal pump 310 and the ejector 320 form a closed loop system, the fourth electromagnetic valve 211 is opened, the ejector 320 sucks the gasified hydrocarbon in the second absorption tank 101 into the ejector 320 by utilizing the negative pressure formed by the Venturi principle, the gasified hydrocarbon is subjected to pressure boosting through the pressure-expanding pipe of the ejector 320 and is carried out in the residual liquid tank 300 together with the circulating liquid, and the gasified hydrocarbon is changed into the liquefied hydrocarbon again. As the process proceeds, the pressure of the gasified hydrocarbons in the second canister 101 becomes lower and lower, and when the pressure falls to 0.03MPa, the control device controls the fourth electromagnetic valve 211 to close.
As the pressurization liquefaction process proceeds, the liquid level of the liquefied hydrocarbon in the residual liquid tank 300 gradually rises, and when the liquid level reaches a preset height, the control device controls the external delivery pump 400 to be turned on, and the liquefied hydrocarbon is delivered to the tank truck to complete the recovery operation of the liquefied hydrocarbon.
The recovery system provided by the invention can automatically switch the electromagnetic valves of the two absorption tanks to ensure that gasified hydrocarbon can be output through the other absorption tank while being absorbed by one absorption tank, a closed loop system is formed among the storage unit, the circulating unit and the injection unit in the recovery device, the injection unit forms certain negative pressure by using a Venturi principle in the circulating process of sucking and extruding the liquefied hydrocarbon in the storage unit by the circulating unit, and the gasified hydrocarbon in the absorption unit is sucked into the recovery device and absorbed by using the negative pressure, so that the problem of local discharge of the liquefied hydrocarbon during separation of a quick connector is effectively solved, the burning and explosion accidents of the gasified hydrocarbon can be avoided, and the safe and effective recovery of the liquefied hydrocarbon is realized.
Of course, the present embodiment is not limited to the above-mentioned case where the preset pressure is 1.3MPa, and may be set according to the case of a specific canister.
In summary, the present invention has been made in view of the above circumstances, and an object of the present invention is to provide a method for efficiently absorbing a liquefied hydrocarbon residue between a loading/unloading end and a ball valve of a tank truck during a loading/unloading operation by an absorption device, which can efficiently recover the liquefied hydrocarbon residue by pressurizing and liquefying the gasified hydrocarbon into liquefied hydrocarbon by a pressurizing device and recovering the liquefied hydrocarbon to a storage device when the pressure of the gasified hydrocarbon generated by gasification in the absorption device reaches a predetermined pressure.
