Description

Method and system for removing hydrogen sulfide in liquid hydrocarbon by amine
Technical Field
The invention relates to the technical field of liquid hydrocarbon desulfurization of petrochemical enterprises, in particular to a method and a system for removing hydrogen sulfide in liquid hydrocarbon by using amine.
Background
The liquid hydrocarbon desulfurizing and refining system is used mainly in eliminating hydrogen sulfide, mercaptan, sulfur and other impurity components from saturated or unsaturated liquid hydrocarbon produced in oil processing unit in oil refinery, and consists of two systems, one for eliminating hydrogen sulfide and one for eliminating mercaptan. The liquid hydrocarbon hydrogen sulfide removal is the first link of a liquid hydrocarbon desulfurization system, generally, amine liquid is used as a desulfurization solvent to remove hydrogen sulfide in liquid hydrocarbon, the desulfurization solvent can be regenerated and recycled, and a purified liquid hydrocarbon product is obtained after treatment, wherein the quality index of the purified liquid hydrocarbon product is that the content of hydrogen sulfide is not more than 20mg/Nm3. Liquid for medical purposeThe mercaptan removal of the liquid hydrocarbon is the second link of a liquid hydrocarbon desulfurization system and is a subsequent process for removing hydrogen sulfide from the liquid hydrocarbon. The sweetening agent used in the process of sweetening liquid hydrocarbon is 15-20 mass% NaOH alkali liquor, sodium hydroxide firstly reacts with hydrogen sulfide in purified liquid hydrocarbon to generate sodium sulfide and other sodium salts, and non-renewable waste alkali liquor is generated. At present, the content of hydrogen sulfide in purified liquid hydrocarbon treated by a liquid hydrocarbon hydrogen sulfide removal system of most refineries can reach 20mg/Nm3The indexes, but the amine loss of the system is large, fresh amine liquid needs to be supplemented periodically, and meanwhile, the subsequent liquid hydrocarbon sweetening system is high in alkali exchange frequency, large in alkali consumption and large in waste alkali discharge.
Through analysis, hydrogen sulfide and amine are both reasons for large alkali liquor consumption of the liquid hydrocarbon mercaptan removal system. Therefore, the liquid hydrocarbon hydrogen sulfide removal system should further reduce the hydrogen sulfide content and the amount of entrained amine in the purified liquid hydrocarbon, reduce the amine loss per se, and simultaneously create conditions for reducing alkali consumption and waste alkali discharge of the liquid hydrocarbon mercaptan removal system.
In recent years, as the scale of processed oil products is enlarged, the yield of liquid hydrocarbons of many petrochemical enterprises is increased. Along with the increase of the processing capacity of the liquid hydrocarbon desulfurization system, the amount of entrained amine in the product purification liquid hydrocarbon of the hydrogen sulfide removal system is obviously increased, the amine loss amount is increased, and the fresh amine supplement amount and the supplement frequency of the hydrogen sulfide removal system are increased. In addition, the purification of hydrogen sulfide and entrained amine in liquid hydrocarbon can cause a series of problems of alkali liquor pollution and alkali consumption increase of a subsequent mercaptan removal system, and the like, so that the processing capacity of alkali residues matched with a refinery is bottleneck, and the pressure of enterprise production and environmental protection is high. With the continuous strict requirements of national environmental protection regulations, the whole liquid hydrocarbon desulfurization system (including a hydrogen sulfide removal system and a mercaptan removal system) must strictly control the amount of the discharged caustic sludge, and the larger the discharge amount of the caustic sludge is, the higher the subsequent treatment cost of the caustic sludge is, and the larger the environmental protection pressure is.
