Definitions
- the present invention relates to a process for the separation of air by cryogenic distillation.
- the Integrated Gasified Combined Cycle is usually selected to generate clean energy from coal. This clean energy production technique is especially suited for new coal-based power generation projects specified to operate efficiently and with minimal pollution to the environment.
- the air separation unit ASU for the IGCC is a combination of an oxygen plant and a nitrogen generator plant.
- the air separation process frequently used for this type of application is the elevated pressure process.
- air separation units operating with this concept have good energy efficiency and reduced power consumption, it is not always possible to use this sort of ASU because the nitrogen/oxygen ratio is generally fixed at a value close to that found for air, ie close to 3.6. If the required ratio is lower than this value, for example about 2.5.
- An object of the present invention is to provide an air separation unit with reduced energy consumption but which is capable of producing nitrogen and oxygen with a nitrogen/oxygen ratio of less than 3.6, preferably greater than 4.
- a process for the separation of air by cryogenic distillation in which air is purified, cooled in a heat exchanger and separated in a column system including at least a first column and a second column, the first column operating at a higher pressure than the second column and the top of the first column being thermally linked to the bottom of the second column via a first reboiler-condenser, oxygen enriched liquid is removed from the first column and sent to the second column or liquid derived from the oxygen enriched liquid is sent to the second column, nitrogen enriched liquid is removed from the first column and sent to the second column, oxygen rich liquid is removed from the second column, pressurized and vaporized in the heat exchanger to form an oxygen rich gas, nitrogen rich fluid is removed from the column system and warmed in the heat exchanger to form a first nitrogen rich gas, wherein
- Figure 1 shows a cryogenic air separation process using a standard double column, having a first column 11 and a second column 15, the first column operating at a higher pressure than the second column and being placed below the second column.
- the top of the first column 11 is thermally linked to the bottom of the second column 15 by means of a vaporizer-condenser 13 placed at the bottom of the second column 15.
- a vaporizer-condenser 13 placed at the bottom of the second column 15.
- the second column it is also possible for the second column to use an intermediate vaporizer-condenser (not illustrated).
- the process also uses an intermediate pressure column 17 having a bottom reboiler 65 and a top condenser.
- the presence of the column 17 is not essential.
- an air stream 1 compressed to the operating pressure of the first column 11 is divided into two parts.
- One part 3 is cooled in heat exchanger 9 and sent in gaseous form to the first column 11.
- the other part 5 is boosted to a higher pressure by booster compressor 7 and sent to the heat exchanger 7.
- the boosted air 5 is cooled in the heat exchanger 9 and sent to the first column 11 after expansion in liquid or partially condensed form.
- oxygen enriched liquid 19 from the bottom of the first column 11 is sent to subcooler 25 and then expanded into the column 17.
- Liquid 67 from the bottom of column 17 is sent to the top condenser as stream 64, where it is partially evaporated, the liquid and gas streams formed being sent to the second column 15.
- Part 71 of the liquid is sent from the bottom of column 17 to the second column 15.
- a liquid stream 21 is removed from an intermediate region of the first column and expanded into the second column 15.
- at least part of stream 5 can be sent directly to the second column 15.
- a first nitrogen enriched liquid stream is sent as stream 23 from the first column to the second column, being removed a few trays below the top of the first column.
- a nitrogen enriched gas stream 61 is removed at the top of the first column, condensed in bottom condenser 65 and mixed with stream 23 as stream 63.
- a liquid stream 55 from the top of column 17 is sent to the top of column 15.
- the column system produces a high pressure gaseous oxygen stream 53 by removing liquid oxygen 49 from the bottom of second column 15, pressurizing it via pump 51 and vaporizing the pumped liquid in exchanger 9.
- the column system produces a high pressure gaseous nitrogen stream 47 by removing liquid nitrogen 43 from the top of first column 11, pressurizing it via pump 45 and vaporizing the pumped liquid in exchanger 9.
- pressurized streams may be sent to a gasifier.
- gaseous nitrogen 29, 37 is removed at the top of the second column 15, warmed in subcooler 25, partially warmed in heat exchanger 9 and sent as stream 75 to a turbine 73 having an inlet temperature which is an intermediate temperature of the heat exchanger 9.
- the expanded nitrogen is sent to the cold end of the exchanger and warmed as far as the warm end.
- the nitrogen 75 forms a waste stream.
- Another part of the nitrogen 37 is warmed in the heat exchanger to the warm end, compressed in compressor 39 and sent to a gas turbine via conduit as stream 41.
- the process uses two particular special operations during two periods.
- the ratio between the amount of nitrogen rich gas produced 41 and the amount of oxygen rich gas 53 produced is greater than 2.5.
- Nitrogen enriched liquid 57A is sent from a storage tank 27 to the column system 11,15 and nitrogen enriched gas 29, 31 from the second column 15 of the column system is compressed in a compressor 33 having an inlet temperature of less than -50°C and then sent to the cold end of the heat exchanger 9.
- the compressor 33 only operates when nitrogen enriched liquid 57A is sent to the column.
- the gas 31 is then warmed in the heat exchanger and mixed with the gas from compressor 39 to form stream 41. Either no nitrogen is sent to the turbine 73 or some nitrogen may be sent to the turbine 73.
- the product ratio is less than 2.5 and a nitrogen rich gas removed from the column system is expanded in a turbine 73 having an inlet temperature lower than the ambient temperature and nitrogen enriched liquid 57 is sent to the storage tank 27 from the column system. No nitrogen is sent to the compressor 33 and all of stream 29 is removed as stream 37.
- Figure 2 shows a variant of Figure 1 in which the cold turbine 73 is replaced by a liquefier.
- the ratio between the amount of nitrogen rich gas produced 41 and the amount of oxygen rich gas 53 produced (known as the "product ratio"), is greater than 2.5.
- Nitrogen enriched liquid 57A is sent from a storage tank 27 to the column system 11,15 and nitrogen enriched gas 29,31 from the second column 15 of the column system is compressed in a compressor 33 having an inlet temperature of less than -50°C and then sent to the cold end of the heat exchanger 9.
- the compressor 33 only operates when nitrogen enriched liquid 57A is sent to the column.
- the gas 31 is then warmed in the heat exchanger and mixed with the gas from compressor 39 to form stream 41.
- the product ratio is less than 2.5 and a nitrogen rich gas removed from the column system 37 is warmed as far as the warm end of exchanger 9. Then part of the gas is sent to compressor 39 and the rest 75 is compressed by compressor 101 and divided into two. One part 79 is cooled and liquefied in exchanger 109 to form a partially condensed stream. This stream separates in a phase separator and the liquid formed serves as final product 83. The gas 85 is sent back to the exchanger, warmed and sent to the atmosphere. The other part of gas from compressor 101 is further compressed in boosters 103, 105, is cooled in exchanger 109 and is expanded in a turbine 73 having an inlet temperature lower than the ambient temperature.
- the expanded gas is warmed in the exchanger 109 to an intermediate temperature and divided into two.
- One part 81 is expanded at the intermediate temperature in turbine 173 and rewarmed in the exchanger before being sent to the atmosphere.
- the rest 79 is warmed and recycled upstream of compressor 101.
