Definitions
- the invention relates to a method for controlling the transition temperature between the convection and the radiation zone in cracking furnaces for olefin production from different hydrocarbon inserts.
- the required high temperatures in the cracking zone are usually achieved by passing the feed material through cracked tubes which are arranged in the radiation zone of a burner-heated cracking furnace.
- the hot flue gases generated during the firing form a large heat reservoir after exiting the radiation zone, which can be used to preheat the use of hydrocarbons and possibly other fluids and for this purpose is passed through a convection zone equipped with heat exchangers.
- DE-OS 15 68 966 teaches what such a regulation can look like. It relates to a control method for the splitting of hydrocarbons, in which the transition temperature between a convection part and a radiation part of a cracking furnace is regulated by either part of the hot flue gases or part of the hydrocarbons to be preheated being circulated around the convection zone.
- the known method is aimed at influencing the temperature profile within a can which penetrates a convection zone and a subsequent radiation zone.
- a greater steepness of the temperature profile in the radiation zone is achieved in that the preheating of the gap insert in the convection zone is reduced, so that the transition temperature from the convection zone to the radiation zone is reduced and preheating is initially continued in the radiation zone.
- An essential aspect of this method is to be seen in the fact that the regulation provided there works in such a way that the predetermined end temperature T E is reached at the outlet end of the can.
- the cited German published application does not indicate any changes to the procedure to be undertaken in the event of a transition to a completely different gap insert, for example the transition from gasoline fractions to gas oil.
- German Patent 28 54 061 a method for preheating hydrocarbons prior to their thermal splitting in the radiation zone of a burner-heated cracking furnace is known, the hydrocarbons and other fluids being heated against flue gas by heat exchangers arranged in the convection zone of the cracking furnace.
- the design of the cracking furnace for the cracking of different hydrocarbon inserts results from the possibility of passing the hydrocarbons and other fluids through heat exchangers divided into a series of bundles, the flow sequence and / or the fluids flowing through the individual bundles using a switching device depending on the cracking insert can be changed. This is made possible by the fact that the heat exchanger bundles are at least partially connected to one another by lines provided with switching elements.
- transition temperature also called cross-over temperature
- the present invention is therefore based on the object of developing a method of the type mentioned above in such a way that the transition temperature between the convection and radiation zones can be adapted in a variety of hydrocarbon applications in a process-technically simple manner with improved economy of the process sequence.
- This object is achieved in that the feed stream is divided into two sub-streams before being introduced into the convection zone, the first sub-stream initially preheated, then mixed with process steam, then mixed with the second, up to this point in time untreated partial stream and the total process stream thus formed is led into the radiation zone after further heating and / or evaporation.
- One embodiment of the method according to the invention is to overheat the process steam before it is mixed with the first partial stream.
- This process steam superheating can take place on the one hand in a heat exchanger in the convection zone of the cracking furnace for hot flue gas coming from the radiation zone of the cracking furnace, and on the other hand in any manner outside the cracking furnace.
- the former embodiment is used above all in the case of liquid hydrocarbon inserts, since only partial evaporation of the first partial stream takes place here, and only when the superheated process steam and the first partial stream are mixed does an almost complete evaporation take place due to the heat released by the superheated process steam onto the hydrocarbons.
- a further embodiment of the method according to the invention provides the possibility of initially mixing the process steam and the first partial stream and then feeding the gas mixture thus formed to a heat exchanger where it is heated to such an extent that the gas mixture overheats.
- a further embodiment of the method according to the invention discloses the possibility of preheating the first partial stream in one or more stages before mixing with process steam.
- the heating of the overall process stream formed after the mixing of the two partial streams can take place in one or more steps.
- a further embodiment of the method according to the invention consists in preheating the first partial stream and further heating the overall process stream formed after the two partial streams have been mixed by indirect heat exchange with the hot flue gas coming from the radiation zone.
- the process according to the invention is applicable to hydrocarbon inserts as diverse as ethane, propane, butane, liquid gas, naphtha, kerosene, atmospheric gas oil, hydrogenated atmospheric gas oil and hydrogenated vacuum gas oil.
- hydrocarbon inserts as diverse as ethane, propane, butane, liquid gas, naphtha, kerosene, atmospheric gas oil, hydrogenated atmospheric gas oil and hydrogenated vacuum gas oil.
- the method according to the invention now allows a relatively inexpensive adaptation of the splitting process to a wide variety of hydrocarbon uses. This enables an optimized and thus maximum utilization of the hydrocarbon feedstocks with the lowest possible energy consumption, specifically heating gas for operating the burners in the radiation zone and the resulting quantity and temperature of the flue gas.
- the constructional and operational expenditure compared to the cited prior art can be significantly reduced.
- the method according to the invention thus reduces the investment and operating costs due to the following improvements: Optimization of the utilization at different Hydrocarbon inserts, minimization of the heating media required and constructional simplification of the convection zone of a cracking furnace for olefin production from different hydrocarbon inserts.
- Precise control of the transition temperature between the convection and radiation zones also enables the reduction of coke deposits in the heat exchanger through which the entire process gas flow last flowed.
- the rate of coking of the gas lines essentially depends both on the temperature of the gas mixture to be split and on the cracking severity. This means that the start of the actual fission processes in the last heat exchangers of the convection zone should be avoided. Rapid coking of the gas lines can drastically shorten the life of a cracking furnace.
- the regulation of the transition temperature now makes it possible to set a temperature which is chosen for each hydrocarbon used in such a way that coking does not yet take place in the convection zone.
- the avoidance of operational interruptions due to decoking work in the convection zone leads to an improvement in the economy of the cracking furnace.
- Figure 1 is the basic representation of the method according to the invention. It shows the convection zone of a cracking furnace for the thermal decomposition of different hydrocarbon inserts.
- the hydrocarbon feed stream is led via line 1 upstream of the convection zone and divided into a first partial stream (line 2) and a second partial stream (line 3) in the desired ratio.
- the first partial flow is then fed via line 2 to a heat exchanger B, heated against cooling flue gas (represented by the dashed arrows) from the radiation zone of the cracking furnace and discharged via line 2a.
- the process steam required for diluting the hydrocarbon feed is fed to a heat exchanger C via line 4 and overheated in it against cooling flue gas.
- the superheated process steam is then drawn off via line 4a, mixed with the heated first partial stream from line 2a and brought together via line 2c with the second, previously untreated partial stream in line 3.
- the total process stream thus formed is then fed via line 5 to a heat exchanger D, where it is further heated or evaporated against cooling flue gas.
- a heat exchanger D After bypassing an intermediate heat exchanger E, which will be described below, the total process stream is fed via line 6 to a last heat exchanger F in the convection zone and heated in it against cooling hot flue gas to the desired transition temperature between the convection and radiation zones before being conducted via line 7 is directed into the radiation zone.
- feed water supplied via line 10 is heated and then passed via line 11 into a high-pressure steam drum, not shown here.
- This feed water serves as a coolant for the quenching of the cracked gases, for which purpose it is fed to a quench cooler.
- steam is formed, which is collected in the upper area of the quench cooler and returned to the steam chamber of the high-pressure steam drum. From there it passes via line 12 into the heat exchanger E, where it is overheated against high-temperature flue gas.
- the superheated steam is drawn off via line 13 and can be used, for example, to operate a turbine for energy recovery.
- the flue gas has a temperature of 1000 ° C to 1200 ° C at the transition from the radiation to the convection zone, leaves the convection zone shown here at the upper end with a temperature of about 130 ° C and is removed via a chimney, if necessary after cleaning .
- FIG. 2 shows a further embodiment of the method according to the invention.
- the hydrocarbon feed is divided into a first partial stream (line 2) and a second partial stream (line 3) in the desired ratio.
- the first partial stream is fed via line 2 into a heat exchanger B, heated against cooling flue gas and drawn off via line 2a.
- Process steam required for dilution is introduced via line 4 and mixed with the first, already heated partial flow in line 2a, the gas mixture thus formed is fed via line 2b to a further heat exchanger C and heated in it to such an extent that the process steam component overheats.
- the gas mixture is then over Line 2c withdrawn and mixed with the second, up to this point in time untreated stream in line 3.
- the total process stream formed in this way is conducted analogously to FIG. 1 via lines 5, 6 and 7 and heat exchangers D and F into the radiation zone.
- Points 21 and 22 each indicate a measuring point for flow rate control in the two partial streams in line 2 and line 3.
- Points 23 to 28 indicate six temperature measuring points.
- Table 1 shows the range in which the transition temperature, which corresponds to the temperature of the measuring point 28, can be varied.
