Definitions

  • the present invention relates to a process for producing a purified synthesis gas stream from a feed synthesis gas stream comprising contaminants.
  • Synthesis gas streams are gaseous streams mainly comprising carbon monoxide and hydrogen. Synthesis gas streams are generally produced via partial oxidation or steam reforming of hydrocarbons including natural gas, coal bed methane, distillate oils and residual oil, and by gasification of solid fossil fuels such as biomass or coal or coke.
  • solid or very heavy (viscous) fossil fuels which may be used as feedstock for generating synthesis gas, including biomass, solid fuels such as anthracite, brown coal, bitumous coal, sub-bitumous coal, lignite, petroleum coke, peat and the like, and heavy residues, e.g. hydrocarbons extracted from tar sands, residues from refineries such as residual oil fractions boiling above 360 0 C, directly derived from crude oil, or from oil conversion processes such as thermal cracking, catalytic cracking, hydrocracking etc. All such types of fuels have different proportions of carbon and hydrogen, as well as different substances regarded as contaminants.
  • solid fuels such as anthracite, brown coal, bitumous coal, sub-bitumous coal, lignite, petroleum coke, peat and the like
  • heavy residues e.g. hydrocarbons extracted from tar sands, residues from refineries such as residual oil fractions boiling above 360 0 C, directly derived from crude oil, or from oil
  • the synthesis gas will contain contaminants such as carbon dioxide, hydrogen sulphide, carbonyl sulphide and carbonyl disulphide while also nitrogen, nitrogen-containing components (e.g. HCN and NH3) , metals, metal carbonyls (especially nickel carbonyl and iron carbonyl), and in some cases mercaptans.
  • Purified synthesis gas can be used in catalytical chemical conversions or to generate power.
  • a substantial portion of the world's energy supply is provided by combustion of fuels, especially natural gas or synthesis gas, m a power plant.
  • Synthesis gas is combusted with air in one or more gas turbines and the resulting gas is used to produce steam. The steam is then used to generate power .
  • IGCC Integrated Gasification Combined Cycle
  • IGCC systems were devised as a way to use coal as the source of fuel m a gas turbine plant.
  • IGCC is a combination of two systems.
  • the first system is coal gasification, which uses coal to create synthesis gas.
  • the syngas is then purified to remove contaminants.
  • the purified synthesis gas may be used m the combustion turbine to produce electricity.
  • the second system in IGCC is a combined-cycle, or power cycle, which is an efficient method of producing electricity commercially.
  • a combined cycle includes a combustion turbine/generator, a heat recovery steam generator (HRSG), and a steam turbine/generator.
  • the exhaust heat from the combustion turbine may be recovered in the HRSG to produce steam. This steam then passes through a steam turbine to power another generator, which produces more electricity.
  • a combined cycle is generally more efficient than conventional power generating systems because it re-uses waste heat to produce more electricity.
  • IGCC systems are clean and generally more efficient than conventional coal
  • Processes for producing a purified synthesis gas stream generally involve the use of expensive line-ups.
  • cold methanol may be used to remove hydrogen sulphide and carbon dioxide by physical absorption.
  • concentrations of these contaminants m the purified synthesis gas will still be in the ppmv range.
  • contaminant concentrations m the ppmv range are still too high. Purifying the synthesis gas streams to a higher degree using a methanol-based process would be uneconomical due to the disproportionately large amounts of energy required to regenerate the methanol.
  • H2S needs to be removed, usually by contacting the methanol comprising H2S with a stripping gas at elevated temperatures, resulting in a stripping gas comprising H2S. H2S m this stripping gas is then converted to elemental sulphur, requiring a considerable capital and operational expenditure.
  • a process is disclosed wherein sulphur species are removed using low-temperature amine- based absorption processes, followed by a solvent regeneration Claus/SCOT process unit.
  • the disadvantage of such a process is that it is limited to the feed gas composition suitable for a Claus process, which is rather high m hydrogen sulphide concentration.
  • the invention provides a process for producing a purified synthesis gas stream from a feed synthesis gas stream comprising besides the main constituents carbon monoxide and hydrogen also hydrogen sulphide, HCN and/or COS, the process comprising the steps of: (a) removing HCN and/or COS by contacting the feed synthesis gas stream with a water gas shift catalyst in a shift reactor in the presence of steam/water to react at least part of the carbon monoxide to carbon dioxide, and to obtain a synthesis gas stream depleted in HCN and/or in COS; (b) removing hydrogen sulphide in the synthesis gas stream depleted in HCN and/or in COS by contacting this gas stream in a H2S-removal zone with an aqueous alkaline washing liquid to obtain a H2S-depleted synthesis gas stream and a sulphide-comprising aqueous stream; (c) contacting the sulphide-comprising aqueous stream with sulphide-
  • the process enables removal of hydrogen sulphide, carbonyl sulphide and/or hydrogen cyanide to low levels.
  • the purified synthesis gas because of its low level of contaminants, is suitable for use as fuel, suitably in gas turbines, or for use in catalytical chemical conversions.
  • the purified synthesis gas is especially suitable for use m an Integrated Gasification Combined Cycle (IGCC) .
  • IGCC Integrated Gasification Combined Cycle
  • step (d) a carbon dioxide stream at elevated pressure, suitably in the range of from 4 to 12 bara is obtained.
  • This carbon dioxide stream can be further pressurised and used for example for enhanced oil recovery.
  • the process is economical because H2S is removed directly from the synthesis gas stream via conversion into elemental sulphur.
  • the synthesis gas stream depleted in H2S has very low concentrations of H2S, enabling the use of an inexpensive non-selective acid gas removal unit to remove remaining H2S as well as CO2 •
  • the amount and type of contaminants m the feed synthesis gas stream can vary and depends on the amount of these contaminants present in the feedstock used to generate the feed synthesis gas stream.
  • the feed synthesis gas stream is obtained by gasification of feedstock.
  • the amount of H2S and COS m the synthesis gas stream leaving the gasifier is below 15 volume%, typically below 5 volume% based on the synthesis gas stream.
  • the amount of H2S and COS in the synthesis gas stream leaving the gasifier will be below 20 volume%, typically below 10 volume% based on the synthesis gas stream.
  • the synthesis gas stream generated from a feedstock may comprise particulate matter, for example fly-ash or soot particles. Therefore, m a preferred embodiment synthesis gas exiting a synthesis gas generation unit is contacted with scrubbing liquid in a soot scrubber to remove particulate matter, in particular soot, thereby obtaining the feed synthesis gas stream.
  • the synthesis gas stream exiting the synthesis gas generating unit is generally at elevated temperature and/or elevated pressure. Especially m the event that the synthesis gas is generated m a gasifier, the synthesis gas stream exiting the gasifier will be at elevated temperature and at elevated pressure.
  • the scrubbing step m the soot scrubber is preferably performed at elevated temperature and/or at elevated pressure.
  • the temperature at which the synthesis gas is contacted with scrubbing liquid is in the range of from 40 to 160 °C, more preferably from 110 to 150 0 C.
  • the pressure at which the synthesis gas stream is contacted with scrubbing liquid is in the range of from 20 to 80 bara, more preferably from 20 to 60 bara.
  • the amount of HCN and/or COS in the feed synthesis gas stream depends on the composition of the feedstock from which the synthesis gas is derived and the technology applied for the production of synthesis gas.
  • the amount of COS in a feed synthesis gas stream derived from solid fossil fuel feedstocks, especially coal is from about 100 to 3000 ppmv, based on the feed synthesis gas stream.
  • the amount of COS is generally in the range of from 1 to 100 ppmv.
  • HCN and/or COS is removed from the feed synthesis gas stream via catalytic conversion.
  • Catalysts for the hydrolysis of HCN and/or COS are known to those skilled m the art and include for example Ti ⁇ 2-based catalysts or catalysts based on alumina and/or chromium-oxide .
  • Preferred catalysts are Ti ⁇ 2 ⁇ based catalysts .
  • the amount of water/steam is preferably between 5 v/v% and 80 v/v%, more preferably between 10 v/v% and 70 v/v%, still more preferably between 15 v/v% and 50 v/v%, based on steam.
  • step (a) the feed synthesis gas stream is contacted with a water gas shift catalyst in a shift reactor to remove HCN and/or COS and to additionally react at least part of the carbon monoxide with water to form carbon dioxide and hydrogen.
  • step (a) carbon monoxide in the feed synthesis gas stream is converted with a low amount of steam m the presence of a catalyst as present m one or more fixed bed reactors.
  • a series of shift reactors may be used wherein m each reactor a water gas shift conversion step is performed.
  • the content of carbon monoxide, on a dry basis, in the feed synthesis gas stream as supplied to the first or only water gas shift reactor is preferably at least 50 vol.%, more preferably between 55 and 70 vol.%.
  • the feed synthesis gas stream preferably contains hydrogen sulphide m order to keep the catalyst sulphided and active.
  • the minimum content of hydrogen sulphide will depend on the operating temperature of the shift reactor, on the space velocity (GHSV) and on the sulphur species present in the feed synthesis gas stream.
  • GHSV space velocity
  • the steam/water to carbon monoxide molar ratio in the feed synthesis gas stream as it enters the first or only water gas shift reactor is preferably between 0.2:1 and 0.9:1.
  • the temperature of the feed synthesis gas stream as it enters the shift reactor is preferably between 190 and 230 °C.
