Now with detailed reference to specific disclosed theme.Although the claim cited by combination describes by disclosed theme, but is appreciated that disclosed theme is not restricted in these claims by they.On the contrary, disclosed theme covers all replacement schemes, change and equivalent, and these can be contained within the scope of disclosed theme defined by the claims.
Traditionally, hydrogen cyanide (" HCN ") carries out plant-scale production according to Andrussow method or BMA method.In Andrussow method, in the presence of a catalyst, raw material containing methane, ammonia and oxygen carries out reacting to produce hydrogen cyanide crude product at higher than the temperature of 1000 DEG C, and it comprises HCN, hydrogen, carbon monoxide, carbon dioxide, nitrogen, remaining ammonia, remaining methane and water.In some preferred embodiments, containing methane, combined before it reacts generation hydrogen cyanide crude product under the effect of catalyst containing ammonia and oxygenous raw material, form ternary gas mixture.Before flowing through heat exchanger, the temperature of hydrogen cyanide crude product, more than 1000 DEG C, must cool before further, processing.
In Andrussow method technique, the formation of HCN is expressed with following total chemical reaction usually:
2CH 4+2NH 3+3O 2→2HCN+6H 2O
But should be appreciated that, above-mentioned chemical reaction represents the simplification of more complicated kinetic sequence, and wherein part hydrocarbon is first oxidized, thus produces enough heat energy to support from remaining hydrocarbon and ammonia to synthesize the endothermic reaction of HCN.
In the process of synthesis HCN, have following three basic side reactions to occur:
CH 4+H 2O→CO+3H 2
2CH 4+3O 2→2CO+4H 2O
4NH 3+3O 2→2N 2+6H 2O
Except the nitrogen amount that side reaction produces, other the nitrogen be present in crude product depends on the source of oxygen.Although prior art has provided the instruction that oxygen-enriched air or pure oxygen can be used as oxygen sources, do not disclose the advantage using oxygen-enriched air or pure oxygen completely.When using air as oxygen sources, hydrogen cyanide crude product comprises the composition in air, as the nitrogen of 78vol%, and the nitrogen produced in the side reaction of ammonia and oxygen.
The term " air " used in the application refers to the admixture of gas that composition is roughly the same with the original gas composition taking from air (usually at ground level).In some instances, air takes from the air of room temperature environment.Air has following composition, comprises the argon gas of the oxygen of the nitrogen of about 78v%, about 21v%, about 1v% and the carbon dioxide of about 0.04v%, and other a small amount of gas.
Term used in this application " oxygen-enriched air " refers to that composition comprises the admixture of gas higher than content of oxygen in air.Oxygen-enriched air has following composition, comprises the oxygen being greater than 21v%, the nitrogen being less than 78v%, is less than the argon gas of 1v% and is less than the carbon dioxide of 0.04v%.In some embodiments, oxygen-enriched air comprises the oxygen of at least 28v%, the oxygen of such as at least 80v%, the oxygen of such as at least 95v%, or the oxygen of at least 99v%.
Due to a large amount of nitrogen in air, use oxygen-enriched air to compare in the technique of synthesis HCN to have superiority, this is because when using air to produce HCN as oxygen sources, the existence of a large amount of inert gas (nitrogen) will cause synthetic reaction needs in synthesis step, use relatively large device, and the concentration of HCN in product gas can be caused lower.In addition, due to the existence of inert nitrogen, need the more methane of burning to improve the temperature of ternary gas mixture component, make it maintain the temperature of synthesis needed for HCN.This hydrogen cyanide crude product contains HCN, also containing byproduct hydrogen gas, methyl hydride combustion accessory substance (carbon monoxide, carbon dioxide, water), remaining methane and remaining ammonia.But when using air (i.e. 21vol% oxygen), after HCN and callable ammonia being separated with other gas components, the existence of inert nitrogen can make the calorific value of the air-flow of remnants lower than the calorific value needed for energy regenerating.
Therefore, adopt oxygen-enriched air or pure oxygen to replace air-making to have many advantages for HCN, include the ability of recover hydrogen.Other advantages comprise the size improving conversion ratio that conversion of natural gas is HCN and corresponding process units and reduce.Therefore, adopt oxygen-enriched air or pure oxygen, the size of reactor can be reduced by reducing the inert compound entering synthesis technique and reduce at least one parts of gas downstream treating apparatus.Employing oxygen-enriched air or pure oxygen can also reduce the energy this being heated to containing oxygen unstrpped gas consume needed for reaction temperature.In ternary gas mixture, the mol ratio of ammonia and oxygen is 1.2-1.6, as 1.3-1.5; The mol ratio of ammonia and methane is 1-1.5, such as 1.10-1.45; The mol ratio of methane and oxygen is 1-1.25, as 1.05-1.15.Such as, in ternary gas mixture, the mol ratio of ammonia-oxygen is 1.3, and the mol ratio of methane and oxygen is 1.2.In another specific embodiment, in ternary gas mixture, the mol ratio of ammonia-oxygen is 1.5, and the mol ratio of methane and oxygen is 1.15.Oxygen content in ternary gas mixture depends on above-mentioned mol ratio.In certain embodiments, this ternary gas mixture comprises the oxygen of 25-32vol%, the oxygen of such as 26-30vol%.Concrete hydrogen cyanide crude product composition is as shown in table 1.
Table 1 hydrogen cyanide crude product forms
As shown in table 1, utilize air technique to prepare HCN and only produce 13.3v% hydrogen, and oxygen technique can cause hydrogen to be increased to 34.5v%.The amount of hydrogen depends on the concentration of oxygen and the mol ratio of reactant in feeding gas, and changes in the scope of 34-36v% hydrogen.Be not subject to theoretical constraint, can think that the increase of amounts of hydrogen improves the sensitiveness of described sleeve pipe degraded, just as further described herein.
Except table 1, the oxygen content in hydrogen cyanide crude product is low, and preferably lower than 0.5v%, oxygen content high in hydrogen cyanide crude product can cause to be shut down or need to clean.According to the mol ratio of ammonia used, oxygen and methane, the composition alterable of the hydrogen cyanide crude product adopting oxygen Andrussow technique to be formed, as shown in table 2.
Table 2
For preventing the degraded of HCN and unreacted ammonia, the hydrogen cyanide crude product leaving reactor must fast quench, such as, to lower than 300 DEG C, as lower than 250 DEG C or lower.Described hydrogen cyanide crude product can adopt heat exchanger to carry out quenching, and as waste heat boiler, described heat exchanger can contain some pipes, and described Guan Jun is connected on tube sheet.The pipe of described heat exchanger and the construction materials of tube sheet should be selected from decomposition to HCN, have more SA material as HCN hydrolysis.Carbon steel is found to be the preferred material of the low cost of described pipe and tube sheet.The cooled hydrogen cyanide crude product flowed out from waste heat boiler can pass through gas cooler, Ammonia recovery section and HCN refining stage successively.The inlet temperature entering the boiler feedwater of waste heat boiler should be enough high, to prevent the polycondensation of cooled hydrogen cyanide crude product.
Described waste heat boiler, while cooling hydrogen cyanide crude product, is recovered in ternary gas mixture and changes into reaction (the namely burning) heat produced in HCN process.The heat energy that waste heat boiler reclaims is enough in and produces steam under pressure and/or preheating ternary gas mixture.In a detailed description of the invention, waste heat boiler is the heat exchanger of the Natural Circulation for generation of steam, and several places in the circumference near waste heat boiler topmost shift out 2 phase water/vapour mixtures, make it enter drum by steam riser.In drum, steam is separated, and remaining condensate is back to waste heat boiler.When the heat reclaimed is used for preheating ternary gas mixture, the amount of the gas feed stream consumed in synthesis in reactor can be reduced, and significantly can increase the output of the HCN based on every part of gas feed flowmeter.
Described waste heat boiler can be the shell and tube exchanger comprising some pipes, and described some pipes surround by boiler feed water, as boiled water.The temperature of the water around pipe lower than the temperature of hydrogen cyanide crude product, and for making the temperature of pipe lower than the temperature of hydrogen cyanide crude product, as lower than 315 DEG C, or lower than 250 DEG C.Due to the severe rugged environment of hydrocyanation reaction device and hydrogen cyanide crude product, waste heat boiler boiler tube easily ruptures, and needs to increase to safeguard and change, thus causes reducing process efficiency.When the oxygen in ternary gas mixture increases, the fracture of waste heat boiler boiler tube can increase, and also can cause the increase of density of hydrogen in hydrogen cyanide crude product.A kind of scheme makes it not contact with hydrogen cyanide crude product the isolation at least partially of waste heat boiler boiler tube.Preferably, the top of pipe is isolated the high temperature that makes pipe from ternary gas mixture.Although pipe is surrounded by boiler feedwater, the top of tube sheet and pipe fully cannot cool with boiler feedwater.Every root Guan Douke comprises sleeve pipe, to isolate waste heat boiler boiler tube.Sleeve pipe useful ceramics material manufactures.But even if there is sleeve pipe, when it contacts with waste heat boiler boiler tube or waste heat boiler tube sheet, due to the severe rugged environment of high temperature and hydrogen cyanide crude product, it still can rupture.Sleeve pipe of the prior art mainly comprises silicon and/or its oxide, and it can with the hydrogen reaction in hydrogen cyanide crude product.Such as, sleeve pipe of the prior art can containing higher than the silicon of 40wt% and/or its oxide.Therefore, when the oxygen content in ternary gas mixture increases, the increase of the hydrogen in hydrogen cyanide crude product can cause the reduction of overlapping tube lifetime.
Unexpectedly, find when sleeve pipe to be made up of high alumina ceramic and by one or more ceramic gasket, as high alumina ceramic pad around time, the life-span of sleeve pipe can extend.Disrance sleeve also advantageously can extend its life-span and prevent it from rupturing.Configuration pad to be separated with waste heat boiler tube sheet by sleeve pipe, and is separated with waste heat boiler boiler tube.Described pad, also for locating sleeve, is located at the position that can separate with tube sheet and pipe.Be not bound by theory, can think that the space state separated due to sleeve pipe and waste heat boiler boiler tube and pipe reduces thermal stress, thus extend the life-span.This space state can reduce the degraded of salic sleeve pipe and/or gasket material.
Sleeve pipe can be made up of pottery, and pottery can aluminium oxide containing at least 90wt%, as the aluminium oxide of at least 94wt% and the aluminium oxide of at least 98wt%.In scope, described sleeve pipe can comprise the aluminium oxide of 90-98wt%, as the aluminium oxide of 92-98% or the aluminium oxide of 93-95wt%.Sleeve pipe additionally can contain silicon and/or its oxide, zirconium dioxide and combination thereof.But the amount of preferred silicon and/or its oxide is low.On the one hand, in sleeve pipe, the amount of silicon and oxide can lower than 10wt%, as lower than 8wt% or lower than 6wt%.In sleeve pipe, the weight ratio of aluminium oxide and silica can be 9:1-200:1, as 15:1-100:1.An exemplary sleeve pipe can comprise the aluminium oxide of 94wt% and the silica of 6wt%.On the one hand, porcelain bushing can be made up of the pottery of monolithic.Be not bound by theory, can think and use the pottery of monolithic and do not have weld seam to be conducive to the fracture avoiding being caused by thermal expansion.
Described one or more pad also can be pottery, can have similar composition to sleeve pipe.On the one hand, described one or more pad contains the aluminium oxide of at least 90wt%, as the aluminium oxide of at least 94wt% and the aluminium oxide of at least 98wt%.In scope, described pad can comprise the aluminium oxide of 90-98wt%, as the aluminium oxide of 92-98% or the aluminium oxide of 93-95wt%.Ceramic gasket also can contain silicon and/or its oxide, zirconium dioxide and combination thereof.On the one hand, in pad, the amount of silicon and/or its oxide can lower than 10wt%, as lower than 8wt% or lower than 6wt%.An exemplary pad can comprise the aluminium oxide of 94wt% and the silica of 6wt%.Described pad can be ceramic fibre pad.Be not bound by theory, can think that use ceramic fibre pad can reduce the fragility of pad because it has sufficient elasticity.This fiber allows pad slightly movement in reactor operation.
Fig. 1 shows reaction unit 101.Described reaction unit comprises and heat exchanger, the reaction zone that coordinates as waste heat boiler 114.Ternary gas mixture is admitted to reactor by pipeline 102, contacts and react to generate hydrogen cyanide crude product with catalyst bed 103.Ternary gas mixture is by obtaining methane-containing gas, ammonia-containing gas and purity oxygen or oxygen-enriched air mixing.Then hydrogen cyanide crude product stream is through the waste heat boiler 114 containing some pipes 106, and wherein hydrogen cyanide crude product flows through some pipes, to cool hydrogen cyanide crude product and generating steam in the shell side of waste heat boiler 114.The number of pipe 106 can become with the size of reactor.The shell side of waste heat boiler is separated by tube sheet 110 and reactor, and the welded top of pipe 106 is on tube sheet 110.Tube sheet 110 can be the taper shape shown in plate or Fig. 1.The part being directly in the reactor on tube sheet 110 is cast ceramic material 111, and it contains several holes matched with the pipe 106 of waste water boiler.Hole on cast material 111 is connected with the pipe 106 in waste heat boiler 114 by using porcelain bushing 105, and its middle sleeve 105 can put into pipe 106.In addition, porcelain bushing 105 is connected in the outlet 104 of reactor by hole.As shown in figures 1-5, every root pipe 106 all comprises porcelain bushing 105.Pipe 106 is surrounded by boiler feedwater 113.The lower surface of tube sheet 110 also can contact with boiler feedwater 113.When hydrogen cyanide crude product stream is through waste heat boiler 114, it is cooled to temperature lower than 300 DEG C, as lower than 275 DEG C or lower than 250 DEG C, then leaves reactor by pipeline 107, and can be further processed.
Before by sleeve pipe 105 Inserting Tube 106, pad 108 is placed on tube sheet 110.As shown in Figures 2 and 3, in one embodiment, sleeve pipe 105 can be isolated by the thrust 115 on sleeve pipe 105, makes it directly not contact with pipe 106 with tube sheet 110.Thrust 115 can be configured to prevent sleeve pipe 105 from slipping over pad 108.Although illustrate only a thrust, multiple thrust can be used without restriction.Be not bound by theory, even if can think that sleeve pipe 105 there occurs certain degraded, but by making sleeve pipe 105 comprise service life that thrust 115 can extend sleeve pipe.In other embodiments, as shown in Figures 4 and 5, the sleeve pipe 105 not having thrust 115 can also be used.Once by sleeve pipe 105 Inserting Tube 106, then the lubrication pin with tapering point can be inserted into the top of sleeve pipe.Described pin and can be enough to hinder the other materials forming the flowing of the ceramic cement of casting material 111 to form by timber, polytetrafluoroethylene (PTFE).For simplicity, in Fig. 2-5, all show the position of cast material 111, but should be understood to casting material 111 and completely covers tube sheet 110, and round the every root sleeve pipe 105 shown in Fig. 1.Once after pin puts in place, ceramic cement is poured on tube sheet 110 with the bottom of forming reactions device.After cement solidification, pin is taken out from ceramic casting material, to form the hole of supplied gas circulation.Described pin can re-lubrication and reinserting.Multilayer cast material can be cast in the same way.In one embodiment, the cast material for the second layer of casting can be made up of the material being different from ground floor, as material that is more wear-resisting and more mechanical resistant stress.When after cement solidification, again pin is removed.Then catalyst support is placed in the top of casting material, third time injects cast material to form sealing between catalyst support and reactor wall.Then catalyst 103 is placed in catalyst support.For simplicity, the situation of the inside reactor on catalyst is not shown in Fig. 1.
Pipe 106 is connected to cast ceramic material 111 by porcelain bushing 105.Porcelain bushing 105 is separated by pad 108 and tube sheet 110, contacts with tube sheet 110 to prevent porcelain bushing 105 with pipe 106.Pad 108 is engaged in porcelain bushing 105 around securely, enters in pipe 106 to prevent porcelain bushing 105.Pad 108 is around porcelain bushing 105 above tube sheet 110, and its external diameter is greater than the diameter of pipe 106.The upper surface of the tube sheet 110 that pad 108 and pipe 106 are welded thereon is adjacent.In certain aspects, pad 108 does not have gluing or is otherwise attached on tube sheet 110.In these areas, the cast of cast material 111 can maintain the position of pad 108.Although only show a pad in Fig. 2-5, also multiple pad can be used.
