Description

The method that is used for the ethylene production demethanizing
The invention belongs to chemical technology field, particularly a kind of technology novel method that is used for the ethylene production demethanizing.
The demethanizing process is the important component part of ethylene production.Wherein demethanizing process mainly comprises two steps: the pre-cold-peace demethanizing of raw material.The deep cooling demethanizing process that is used at present producing generally can be divided into methods such as high-pressure process, low-pressure process and ARS.The main operational condition of high-pressure process is high pressure precooling (3.4MPa), high pressure demethanizing (2.94MPa), and the main operational condition of low-pressure process is high pressure precooling (3.4Mpa) and low-pressure methane removing (0.59MPa).Low-pressure methane removing can improve the relative volatility of methane and ethene, greatly reduces minimum stripping amount and minimum reflux ratio (lp system is 0.1-0.2, and high-pressure system is 0.8~1.0), thereby has saved energy.But the low-pressure methane removing flow process is not suitable for all cracking stocks, only is applicable to the CH of cracking product 4/ C 2H 4Bigger occasion.
ARS technology, promptly advanced isolation technique (Advanced Recovery System) are the advanced person's of the common exploitation of Stone Webster company and Mobil chemical company olefin recovery novel procesies.This technology adopts condensation separator, before demethanizing tower, with the hydrogen in the splitting gas, methane is as much as possible to be separated, demethanizing tower can be operated under comparatively high temps, thereby cancelled-101 ℃ ethene cryogen, this is the maximum characteristics and the advantage of this technology.
Compare with high-pressure process, although ARS technology and low-pressure methane removing technology have certain energy-conserving action, but in the industrial implementation process, all need extremely low temperature (generally maintaining-99 ℃), consume a large amount of cryogens, the corresponding apparatus material need adopt the 3.5Ni steel or stainless steel, and pipe material also will all be used stainless steel.There is two-phase flow in total system simultaneously, need adopt bigger line size in order to reduce pressure drop, and these factors have restricted further developing of low-pressure methane removing technology.
The objective of the invention is to propose a kind of method that is used for the ethylene production demethanizing, adopt high pressure conditions (2.94MPa) demethanizing, make it have the operation energy consumption that reduces the demethanizing system, the characteristics that reduce facility investment for overcoming the weak point of prior art.
The present invention proposes a kind of method that is used for the ethylene production demethanizing, it is characterized in that, may further comprise the steps:
(1) through the splitting gas after the compression drying heat exchange, cooling enters first rectifying tower DT1 bottom in the demethanizing tower intermediate reboiler; The DT1 rectifying tower is divided into up and down two independent parts of A, B, and the vapour phase extraction of bottom rectifying section B is cooled to-37 ℃ ~-38 ℃ with-40 ℃ of propylene refrigerants again after being cooled to-26 ℃ ~-30 ℃ with deethanizing column still liquid in the charging chiller, enter separator SP2 separation; The lime set that separator is told is sent bottom B rectifying back to and is partly done backflow; Uncooled gas enters top A rectifying part as the gas that boils again, the liquid of top rectifying A also enters bottom B rectifying and partly does backflow: like this, tower still still liquid by the first rectifying tower mass-and heat-transfer enters demethanizing tower DA-301, and the top gas phase of first rectifier rectifying A part is through ice chest CD1 and the condensation of ethene cryogen, enter vapor-liquid separation tank SP1, gas phase enters the tower still of second rectifying tower DT2 bottom rectifying C part, and liquid phase then enters first rectifying tower DT1 top A part as refluxing;
The cat head gas phase of (2) second rectifying tower DT2 bottom C rectifying is separated in separating tank SP3 after ice chest CD2 heat exchange and ethene cryogen are cooled to-72 to-75 ℃, liquid enters bottom C rectifying and partly does backflow, the tower still that gas phase then enters the second rectifier D rectifying part gas that boils again.The second rectifying tower DT2 top rectifying D part cat head gas phase is separated in separating tank SP4 after ice chest CD3 heat exchange cooling, and liquid enters the second rectifying tower DT2 top and does backflow;
The liquid phase that (3) first rectifying tower DT1 come out the bottom enters demethanizing tower DA-301, and demethanizing tower is-72 to-75 ℃ of operation operations, and top tail gas has the ethylene recovery of 10%-15% approximately.
The top method for recovering tail gas in the 3rd step of the present invention adopts absorption tower AD1 to reclaim, and the methane and the hydrogen that come out in AD1 top, absorption tower are further handled and obtained purified hydrogen product; The ethene that comes out in the still liquid of demethanizing tower bottom and desorption tower DA1 top enters the further separation of C of deethanizing column 2, C 3
The characteristics of this flow process are:
1, use multi-stage countercurrent contact rectification tower:
(a) once balance of separating tank in traditional demethanizing technology has been made into the repeatedly balance of counter current contact, heavy component ethene is further separated with light component methane;
(b) gas-liquid direct contact heat transfer and mass transfer in tower avoided in the ARS technology that gas-liquid two-phase flows in the plate-fin heat exchanger heat exchanger channels, and heat-transfer effect is reduced, and wayward, shortcoming such as turndown ratio is little;
(c) in rectifying tower, the gas-to-liquid contact area is far longer than two-phase contact area in the ice chest, can obtain better separating effect.
2. behind demethanizing tower and ice chest, adopted solvent absorption process.The main effect on absorption tower is the ethene that reclaims in the demethanizing tower tail gas, and the consumption of absorption agent and energy consumption are all very low.By regulating the consumption of absorption agent, can make the loss of ethene be reduced to minimum, improved the yield of ethene.Adopt this technology, make that methane and the hydrogen more than 70% leaves demethanizing tower before demethanizing tower, and the trim the top of column temperature brings up to-75 ℃, thereby reduce the thermal load of demethanizing cat head condenser, cryogen consumption is obviously descended;
3. in the precooling stage, improved the separation temperature of methane hydrogen, the energy expenditure of ethene cryogen has been reduced significantly cancelled-101 ℃ ethene cryogen, the demand of cryogen is shifted to the cryogen of higher level; Because cold shifts to higher rank, and low temperature resistant steel consumption amount is reduced;
4. this flow process is owing to the no longer strict control of demethanizer column overhead ethylene content, strengthen operational stability.Because flow process requires greatly to reduce to ethylene content in the tail gas, demethanizing tower no longer is " bottleneck " of expanding production and transforming, and unnecessary ethene all can reclaim fully by absorption tower efficiently.
Effect of the present invention is:
The material that rectifying tower DT1 comes out the bottom in the method for the present invention enters demethanizing tower DA-301, because the content of methane hydrogen reduces significantly in the charging, and the load of demethanizing tower is reduced, and reduces the reflux ratio of demethanizing tower simultaneously, the required cold of demethanizing cat head reduces, and has saved ethene cryogen consumption.And absorption-desorption process then utilizes a large amount of low-grade quenched water of having more than needed in a large amount of quenching processes.Make the energy utilization of ethylene process more reasonable, reduce the ethylene production energy consumption significantly.Adopt this technology can make present 700-800Kcal/ ton ethene be reduced to 400-500Kcal/ ton ethene.Adopt simultaneously this flow process can reduce former flow process ethene machine, propylene machine load each about 50% and 80%, the throughput of former flow process is increased substantially.
