H in acid gas generated in the above field 2 Concentration of SThe degree is generally lower, namely the lean acid gas, and the ammonia liquid, the hydrocarbon and the CO are simultaneously contained 2 And the treatment difficulty is far higher than that of acid gas in a refinery due to impurities.
If the sulfur recovery device adopts the currently commonly applied Claus direct current process, because the concentration of the acid gas is low, in order to ensure the lowest stable temperature of the reaction furnace, a large amount of fuel gas is generally injected into the reaction furnace for combustion, so that the combustion temperature of the reaction furnace is improved, and the energy consumption of the device is large; the conversion rate of the sulfur recovery device is low due to severe side reaction in the reaction furnace; an increase in the process gas quantity also leads to an increase in the plant investment.
The sulphur recovery unit may also employ a claus split process. According to the concentration of the acid gas, a part of the acid gas (generally accounting for more than 33 percent of the total gas amount) directly enters the reaction furnace for combustion, and most of H is generated 2 S to SO 2 Thereby increasing the combustion temperature of the reaction furnace. And cooling the combusted process gas by a waste heat boiler of the reaction furnace, mixing the cooled process gas with the other part of the acid gas, and allowing the mixture to enter a Claus reactor for subsequent catalytic reaction. The process can ensure the stable combustion of the reaction furnace and improve the operation stability of the sulfur recovery device, but because a part of acid gas directly enters a catalytic reaction stage without thermal reaction, the load of the catalytic reaction is increased, the catalytic dosage needs to be improved, and the sulfur recovery rate of the device is reduced; the acid gas often carries hydrocarbon impurities, which easily causes carbon deposition and inactivation of the catalyst, shortens the service life of the catalyst and influences the long-period operation of the sulfur recovery device.
