Description

Solvent/hydration combined gas separation process without pressurization
Technical Field
The invention relates to the technical field of gas separation, in particular to a solvent/hydration combined gas separation process and system without pressurization, and especially relates to CO 2 The capture and the resource recycling of pollutants.
Background
The application of the thermal oil recovery method technology makes an important contribution to realizing high and stable yield of the thick oil, but also causes some adverse factors, such as the appearance of a large amount of secondary gas. Because the secondary gas contains a large amount of N 2 、CO 2 And the secondary gas cannot be directly utilized, other processes can be affected due to improper treatment, and energy waste and environmental pollution can be caused due to direct discharge, so that the significance of harmless treatment of the secondary gas is great. If also useful gas components such as CO can be recovered therefrom 2 And CH 4 When CO is present 2 When reaching a certain concentration, the oil can be used as the oil displacement gas to be injected back into the well for oil displacement, and when CH is generated 4 The enrichment to a certain concentration can be used for generating electricity or used for other purposes.
Currently, pressure swing adsorption and adsorption/cryogenic rectification are the primary methods for recovering CH in the separation of such gases 4 With CO 2 The process of (1). In order to realize the separation of the three gas components, the Pressure Swing Adsorption (PSA) process utilizes the difference of the adsorption capacity of the gas components on different adsorption materials to realize the separation of the components, and the pressure swing adsorption process in the actual operation process needs at least nine steps, namely: a final pressure increasing process, an adsorption process, a forward pressure reducing process, an even pressure reducing process, a reverse pressure reducing process, a flushing regeneration process, a vacuumizing process, an even pressure increasing process and a replacement process. The single adsorption tower is intermittent operation, and in order to make the operation of the pressure swing adsorption process smoother and continuous, the pressure swing adsorption operation must be more than 2 pressure swing adsorption towers, and the more the number of the adsorption towers, the more stable and continuous the operation.
The low-temperature rectification method is characterized in that raw material gas enters a rectification tower after being pressurized and cooled to the temperature of saturated liquid, vapor-liquid contact is carried out for multiple times in each tower plate or filler by utilizing the boiling point difference of different gas components to realize gas separation, more volatile components are evaporated when heat is absorbed, and more difficultly volatile components are condensed when mixed steam absorbs cold, so that separation is realized.
However, in the actual operation process, the pressure swing adsorption method has low investment relative to the low temperature rectification method, the operation is simple, the treatment cost is low, and the method is widely applied, but in the actual application, repeated pressurization and depressurization are needed, the process energy consumption is high, and the adsorbent is sensitive to heavy hydrocarbon, water and other components in the raw material gas, and the adsorption performance of the adsorbent can be reduced after long-term use, so that the water component and the heavy hydrocarbon component in the raw material gas need to be fully removed to ensure the normal operation of the adsorbent in the pressure swing adsorption method which is widely used at present, however, the energy consumption of raw material gas dehydration is very high, and the operation is not convenient.
Hydrate gas separation technique using the temperature at which different gases form hydratesThe pressure conditions are different. During the hydration separation process in the mixed gas, the molecules which are easy to generate hydrate preferentially enter the hydrate phase, the enrichment degree of the molecules in the hydrate phase is gradually increased along with the time, and the concentration of the molecules in the residual gas phase is gradually reduced, so that the gas mixture entering the hydration system is separated from the gas phase in the hydration phase. For fireflooding oilfield gas, the main raw material component is CH 4 、CO 2 And N 2 While for the sII type hydrate, CH, formed by the mixed gas of the three-component gas in a pure water system 4 With CO 2 Occupying a small cage, N 2 Occupying a large cage, and if the three components need to be separated in a hydrate method, the required flow is very complicated and difficult to realize. But CO 2 Easily soluble in alcohol amine solution (MEA, MDEA, etc.) by adding CO 2 Removing by flux method to leave CH which is easy to separate by hydration 4 And N 2
At present, the recovery of fireflood oilfield gas is mainly characterized in that no related new process patent is available for recovering and treating oilfield secondary gas, only CN 203750379U provides a new loading and unloading device on adsorption tower equipment in a process of recovering oilfield associated gas by a pressure swing adsorption method, and the operation design optimization is carried out on a unit (adsorption tower) in the traditional pressure swing adsorption.
In addition, CN 108722135A which is an invention for utilizing a hydration method for acid gas recovery adopts a hydration method to separate CO 2 And H 2 The solvent is further removed after the mixed acid gas of S, the method may have process leak, the decomposed hydrate is low pressure (< 0.2 MPa), the hydrate enters into a high-pressure absorption tower without pressurization treatment, and the solvent for absorption adopts conventional alcohol amine solution, so the absorption effect may not be ideal in practical application. Especially, as the development of new unconventional energy sources is well progressed, the supply of energy markets is greatly enriched, and the exploitation economy of thick oil becomes more important, new economic recovery processes need to be explored for the recovery of secondary gas in oil fields. In this patent, CH is used to realize the actual operation of oil field 4 With CO 2 To reduce gas separation and recovery operationsAs a cost of implementation, a solvent/hydration combination process and system is proposed that does not require pressurization.

Compared with the prior art, the process and the system can economically and efficiently carry out CO-containing treatment in a system without pressurization 2 、N 2 And CH 4 The secondary gas of the oil field is recycled, so that the energy in the process is reasonably utilized, and the energy consumption is greatly reduced; the whole process is environment-friendly and reliable, and has good economic benefit.

Further, the pressure of the solvent absorption tower is 0.6MPa-2MPa, and preferably 1.2MPa; the 1.2MPa pressure is chosen here because the subsequent hydration reaction is facilitated by the increased absorption pressure, which takes into account the 600kPa pressure of the subsequent hydration reaction, in order to avoid additional pressurization and heat exchange of the system. The hydration reactor pressure is between 0.7MPa and 1.3MPa, preferably 0.8MPa.
Further, the pre-treated fireflood oilfield gas line needs to be fed from the bottom of the solvent absorption tower so as to ensure that the gas is fully contacted with the lean solution.
Further, the solvent absorption tower is a vapor-liquid mass transfer device and is selected from a plate tower and a packed tower; preferably selecting a plate tower, wherein a liquid distributor is arranged at the top of the tower for spraying, and a liquid redistributor is arranged in the middle of the tower for strengthening mass transfer; the solvent absorption tower is a vapor-liquid mass transfer device, particularly a plate tower and a packed tower, preferably the plate tower, the top of the tower is sprayed with a liquid device, and the middle of the tower is provided with a liquid redistributor to strengthen mass transfer. The vapor-liquid ratio of the solvent absorption tower is 3-60, preferably 5.8, the loss of the gas phase carried out from the top of the solvent absorption tower is related to the vapor-liquid ratio and the temperature during absorption, and the larger vapor-liquid ratio is not considered to be suitable for reducing the part of liquid carried out by gas.

Further, a hydrate slurry pump or other conveying devices are arranged between the outlet part of the bottom of the hydrate reactor and the inlet of the hydrate decomposer, wherein the hydrate slurry pump is a preferable solid-liquid fluid conveying device.
Furthermore, more than one heat exchanger device is arranged between the inlet part of the hydrate reactor circulating additive and the outlet of the hydrate decomposer to cool the decomposed accelerator solution, wherein in order to reduce the energy consumption of the system and not use a cold source generated in public works, air cooling, circulating cooling water utilization or air cooling and water cooling combination is recommended to further cool the circulating barren solution.
