Definitions

  • the invention relates to a method for removing acid gases from a gas stream, in particular from a natural gas stream, synthesis gas stream or the like, wherein the acid gases from the gas stream are absorbed by at least one absorbent and wherein as absorbent a mixture of a physical detergent, a chemical detergent and water is used.
  • DE 10 2005 050 385 A1 discloses a method for removing carbon dioxide from gas streams.
  • the absorbent used is a mixture of a primary or secondary amine in an aqueous solution, a physical solvent (for example acetylmorpholine, N-formylmorpholine) and optionally other amines.
  • the proportion of morpholine in the absorbent is up to 25 wt .-%.
  • a disadvantage of the known processes, especially when there are high sour gas partial pressures, is that the proportion of the physically active absorbent must be reduced by the proportion of the chemical detergent and the water in the absorbent, so that the capacity of the physically acting absorption medium is reduced.
  • a further disadvantage is that due to the water content in the absorbent, especially at high sour gas partial pressures, increasing corrosion in the devices in which the processes are carried out can be expected.
  • the invention has the technical problem of providing a method with which sour gas components can be easily and easily removed from a gas stream and with which the above-described corrosion problems are reliably avoided.
  • the invention teaches a method for removing acid gases from a gas stream, in particular from a natural gas stream, synthesis gas stream or the like of the type mentioned, which is characterized in that the absorbent more than 70 wt .-% of the physical detergent and contains at most 5 wt .-% of water that is used as a physical detergent, a morpholine derivative and that a chemical detergent is used based on at least one aliphatic amine compound.
  • acid gases or sour gas components include carbon monoxide (CO), carbon dioxide (CO 2 ), hydrocyanic acid (HCN), hydrogen sulphide (H 2 S), carbon disulphide (CS 2 ), carbonyl sulphide (COS) and mercaptans.
  • the sour gas-containing gas stream is passed through an absorber column, in which the liquid absorbent flows counter to the gas stream.
  • the absorbent By the opposite directions of flow of the acid gas-containing gas stream and the absorbent intimate mixing of the gas or gas stream and the absorbent is achieved, so that the sour gas components are absorbed by the absorbent.
  • the regeneration of the absorbent is conveniently carried out in a stripping column.
  • the absorbent largely contains at least one physical detergent. It is possible that the physical detergent consists of one and preferably two morpholine derivatives. Also, a plurality or a plurality of morpholine derivatives may be contained in the physical detergent.
  • the chemical detergent contains at least one aliphatic amine compound.
  • the combination of the physical detergent and the chemical detergent makes it possible to absorb acid gases, in particular H 2 S, down to the ppm range.
  • the chemical detergent contains at least two amine compounds.
  • the absorbent contains more than 80% by weight of the physical detergent. In a preferred embodiment of the method of the invention, the absorbent contains about 85% to about 98%, and more preferably about 95%, by weight of the physical detergent.
  • the aim is a low water content of the absorbent.
  • the absorbent contains less than 3% by weight of water. It is within the scope of the invention that the absorbent has a water content of about 1 wt .-% or even less than 1 wt .-%.
  • the absorbent may contain from 0.1% to 30% by weight of the aliphatic amine compounds, with a proportion of the aliphatic amine compounds of from 0.1% to 25% by weight being particularly advantageous. According to a preferred embodiment, the absorbent contains up to 10% by weight of the aliphatic amine compound, in particular up to 5% by weight of the aliphatic amine compound. The percentages by weight of the physical detergent contained in the absorbent, of the water and of the chemical detergent or of the aliphatic amine compound always add up to 100% by weight.
  • NFM N-formylmorpholine
  • NAM N-acetylmorpholine
  • the absorbent is largely a mixture of NFM and NAM.
  • the amine compound has at least one component selected from the group "methyldiethanolamine (MDEA), diethanolamine (DEA), polyethylene glycol-substituted amine". It is recommended that the amine and expediently carries two polyethylene glycol substituents. It is also possible that the amine is provided with three polyethylene glycol substituents.
  • the invention is based on the finding that with the process according to the invention, acid gases are simply and reliably removed from a gas stream. It is essential to the invention that a removal of the acid gases is functionally reliable down to the ppm range. It has been found that the method according to the invention can be used for a large number of gas streams with different sour gas components and sour gas compositions. Furthermore, synthesis gas, in particular acid-converted synthesis gas, can be desulfurized with the process according to the invention in a surprisingly selective manner, thus achieving more selective and less expensive desulfurization than a purely physical solvent.
  • the invention is based on the finding that the height of the absorber or stripper columns can be significantly reduced by means of the method according to the invention in comparison with the methods known from practice. Furthermore, the process according to the invention, in particular in the selective desulfurization of synthesis gases behind an acidic conversion, has an unexpectedly low amount of solvent circulation. It has have shown that the partial pressure differences for the physical absorption of the acid gases or of the acid gas components in the absorbent according to the invention are favorably influenced by the addition of the amine compound. In this way, particularly difficult to remove sulfur compounds can be reliably absorbed from the gas stream. It should be noted that the low water content ensures that corrosion in installations in which the method according to the invention is carried out is reliably avoided.

Abstract

La présente invention concerne l'élimination de gaz acides dans un flux gazeux, notamment dans un flux de gaz naturel, dans un flux de gaz de synthèse ou analogues, ces gaz acides étant absorbés à partir du flux gazeux par au moins un agent absorbant. Comme agent absorbant, on utilise un mélange composé d'un détergent physique, d'un détergent chimique et d'eau. L'agent absorbant présente plus de 60 % en poids de détergent physique, et on utilise comme détergent physique un dérivé morpholinique ainsi qu'un détergent chimique à base d'au moins un composé aminé aliphatique.
