Definitions
- the present invention relates to a cryogenic unit and method for operating a cryogenic unit.
- the cryogenic unit is for example part of an air separation unit (ASU) to produce oxygen from air or it can be part of a gas processing (GPU) unit in which flue gas is compressed and cooled in order to separate carbon dioxide from other gas.
- the cryogenic unit can further be used in an air separation unit and/or gas processing unit of a power plant for electric power generation and/or steam generation and/ or gasification plant.
- Cryogenic units often have a compressor followed by a heat exchanger with a first warm side and a second cold side.
- the treated gas discharged from the gas separation device is passed through the cold side of the heat exchanger, in order to cool the gas being threated passing through the warm side of the heat exchanger, and is then forwarded to further treatments.
- cooling is achieved by expansion of the gas being treated in the expansion valve, at start-up it takes usually a long time to reach the operating temperature at the heat exchanger, i.e. for the gas being treated to be cooled at the heat exchanger to the required design temperature.
- cryogenic unit described above is part of an air separation unit (ASU) of e.g. an oxygen fired power plant, it could take up to two days from start up to reach the operating temperature (between -160/-190°C) at the outlet of the heat exchanger (i.e. for the air cooled at the heat exchanger to have a temperature in the range -160/-190°C at the outlet of the heat exchanger).
- ASU air separation unit
- the inventor has found a way to shorten the start-up time.
- An aspect of the invention includes providing a cryogenic unit and a method by which the start-up time can be reduced compared to what currently needed.
- the flexibility of operation of the cryogenic unit can be increased according to the invention, because the additional heat exchanger provides increased flexibility to control the temperature of the gas being treated.
- cryogenic unit 1 for gas treatment.
- the cryogenic unit is e.g. part of a power plant for electric power generation and/or steam generation and/or gasification plant such as IGCC.
- the power plant is preferably an oxyfuel power plant, i.e. a power plant having a boiler in which a fuel such as coal or oil, is burned in the presence of oxygen or oxygen enriched gas or substantially pure oxygenand recirculated flue gas.
- Use of the cryogenic unit of the invention in an oxyfuel power plant is advantageous, because in an oxyfuel power plant an air separation unit for separating oxygen from other gas constituting the air and a gas processing unit for separating carbon dioxide from other gas constituting the flue gas are needed; air separation unit and gas processing unit can thus advantageously implement the invention.
- the cryogenic unit 1 can comprise a compressor 2 for compressing the gas being treated 3 and a heat exchanger 4, to remove the compression heat from the gas being treated.
- the cryogenic unit 1 further has a cleaning system 5, such as a filter for dust removal and/or molar sieves for carbon dioxide and/or moisture removal by absorption.
- a cleaning system 5 such as a filter for dust removal and/or molar sieves for carbon dioxide and/or moisture removal by absorption.
- the cryogenic unit 1 further includes a heat exchanger 7 having a first side 7a and a second side 7b; an expansion valve 9 is connected downstream of the first side 7a of the heat exchanger 7 and a gas treatment device 10 is connected downstream of the expansion valve 9 and upstream of the second side 7b of the heat exchanger 7.
- the cryogenic unit 1 further has at least an additional heat exchanger 12.
- Bypasses 17 can be provided in parallel to the heat exchangers 12.
- the additional heat exchangers 12 can be provided in different positions of the cryogenic unit 1 and are used to provide additional cooling to the gas being treated, in addition to the cooling provided by the treated gas passing through the second side 7b of the heat exchanger 7.
- Each of the additional heat exchangers 12 is connected to a mixing device 13 in turn connected to a supply of a liquid such as methanol and a supply of dry ice (solid carbon dioxide).
- the additional heat exchangers 12 in the cryogenic unit can be positioned:
- the gas treatment device 10 is a separation device, for separating the gas into its components; for example the separation device is a distillation column.
- a reservoir 15 for storing the methanol and a reservoir 16 for storing the dry ice are provided.
- Methanol and dry ice can be supplied into the reservoirs 15, 16 by external sources, e.g. methanol and/or dry ice can be bought on the marked and supplied into the reservoirs 15 and/or 16.
- cryogenic unit 1 can be used in a power plant, such as an oxyfuel power plant.
- a power plant such as an oxyfuel power plant.
- CCS carbon capture & storage plant
- CCU carbon capture & utilization plant
- the attached figures show an oxyfuel power plant having, in addition to the cryogenic unit 1, a boiler 20 supplied with oxygen 21 from the cryogenic unit 1 and fuel 22 (reference 23 indicates nitrogen and other gas from the cryogenic unit 1 that are separated at the distillation column 10 and pass through the heat exchanger 7 via a different path from the path of the oxygen).
- combustion of fuel e.g. coal or oil or in general any carbon containing fuel, either solid, liquid or gaseous
- fuel e.g. coal or oil or in general any carbon containing fuel, either solid, liquid or gaseous
- an air quality control system 25 including e.g. a dust removal unit such as a fabric filter or electrostatic precipitator, a deSOx unit for sulphur removal, a deNOx unit for nitrogen removal (if required according to the specific application), a dryer , etc.
- the cleaned flue gas is supplied to a gas processing unit 26 for separating the carbon dioxide from other gas constituting the flue gas; the carbon dioxide is thus supplied to a pump/compressor 27 for storage (the other gas comprising mainly nitrogen, argon, etc. can be vented from the GPU).
- a part of the carbon dioxide separated from the flue gas can be used to convert carbon dioxide into methanol at a first conversion unit 29 and/or to convert carbon dioxide into dry ice at a second conversion unit 30.
- Processes to convert carbon dioxide into methanol are known in the art; processes to convert gaseous or liquid carbon dioxide into dry ice are known as well.
- the mixing unit 13 can be directly supplied by the first conversion unit 29 and/or second conversion unit 30 or the mixing unit 13 can be directly supplied by the reservoir 15 for the methanol and/or by the reservoir 16 for the dry ice; in addition, it is possible that the first conversion unit 29 is connected to and supplies methanol into the reservoir 15 and/or the second conversion unit 30 is connected to and supplies dry ice into the reservoir 16.
- cryogenic unit 1 is part of an air separation unit.
- the gas 3 (e.g. air in case the cryogenic unit is part of an air separation unit ASU or flue gas generated during combustion of a fuel such as coal or oil in case the cryogenic unit is part of a gas processing unit) is compressed at the compressor 2 and is then cooled at the heat exchanger 4, to remove the compression heat; at the compressor a cooling means such as water from an external source or air can be used.
- a cooling means such as water from an external source or air can be used.
- the gas is thus forwarded to the cleaning system 5 where dust, humidity and carbon dioxide are removed (the treatments occurring in the cleaning system 5 depend on the particular application of the cryogenic unit 1, e.g. in case the cryogenic unit 1 is part of a gas processing unit carbon dioxide is not removed).
- the gas is thus forwarded to the heat exchanger 7 (namely through the first side 7a of the heat exchanger 7).
- the gas is cooled against the treated gas passing through the second side 7b of the heat exchanger 7.
- the cooled gas is thus made to pass through the expansion valve 9 where it is further cooled following expansion.
- the gas before entering the heat exchanger 7 (i.e. between the cleaning system 5 and heat exchanger 7) the gas has the ambient temperature; after having passed through the heat exchanger 7 (i.e. between the heat exchanger 7 and the expansion valve 9) the gas has a temperature between about -160/-190°C, after having passed through the expansion valve (i.e. between the expansion valve 9 and the gas separation device 10) the gas has a temperature between about -170/-190°C.
- the gas is thus supplied to the gas separation device 10; at the gas separation device 10 the different gas which constitute the air (nitrogen, oxygen, argon, etc.) are separated.
- the different gas which constitute the air nitrogen, oxygen, argon, etc.
- two or more than two streams can be separated at the gas separation device; in the attached figures all streams separated at the gas separation device are collectively indicated by reference 7b.
- the streams of gas are thus passed through the heat exchanger 12 where the streams are further cooled; the streams can also pass through the heat exchanger 12 without undergoing further cooling or can be bypassed according to the operating conditions and needs.
- the streams are thus passed through the second side 7b of the heat exchanger 7 cooling the gas being treated passing through the first side 7a; the oxygen is then supplied to boiler 20, while the other gas (nitrogen, argon, etc.) is vented via 23 or used in other way.
- the heat exchanger 12 is particularly useful at start up in order to reduce the start-up time.
- the heat exchanger 12 can also be used during operation in case additional cooling is needed.
- the mixing unit 13 can comprise a tank in which the liquid methanol is contained and one or more feeders to feed the solid dry ice into the liquid methanol. Agitators could also be provided.
- the solid dry ice When the solid dry ice is supplied into the methanol (also identified in industry by the abbreviation MeOH), the solid dry ice sublimates, passing from the solid state to the gas state (at least partially); the gaseous carbon dioxide in thus at least partly dissolved in the liquid methanol.
- This sublimation requires a large amount of heat to occur (because of the high heat of changing of state); the heat for making the sublimation of carbon dioxide to occur is taken from the methanol, which thus becomes colder (e.g. between -60 to -72). Therefore the consequence of mixing dry ice with methanol is the generation of a cold mixture of methanol with carbon dioxide.
- the final temperature depends mainly on the amount of dry ice supplied into the methanol, because of the large heat required for making the sublimation to occur; the exact starting temperature of methanol is less relevant.
- methanol and dry ice can be mixed in a ration 1:1 by weight.
- any liquid can be used instead of methanol, provided that it maintains its liquid state at the operating temperatures reached by the sublimation of dry ice.
- Use of methanol is anyhow advantageous because it can be produced from the carbon dioxide generated in the power plant and because (even if it contains dissolved carbon dioxide) it can be used as a fuel or supplemental fuel in the power plant itself or in other applications; this way the heat absorbed by the methanol is not lost, but is used in the boiler or other applications.
- the mixture of methanol with carbon dioxide is used in the heat exchanger 12.
- the mixture can be used in different ways.
- the mixture can be used as a fuel in the boiler 20 or as a supplemental fuel in the boiler 20; in this respect the mixture is supplied from the additional heat exchangers to the boiler via lines 31.
- This is advantageous, because the carbon dioxide contained in the methanol is not vented into the atmosphere, but is treated and collected in the air quality control system 25 and gas processing unit 26.
- the reservoirs 15, 16 can be refilled by methanol and dry ice acquired on the marked and/or produced during operation of the power plant.
- figure 3 shows a gas process unit implementing a cryogenic unit of the invention.
- the gas process unit has a compressor 2 and a gas cleaning system 5 for dust, moisture etc. removal.
- the gas processing unit further has first and second heat exchangers 7, with a first side 7a for the gas being treated, which in this example is flue gas, and a second side for the treated gas (e.g. nitrogen to be vented, separated carbon dioxide). Downstream of the second heat exchanger 7 a gas separation device in the form of e.g. a distillation column is provided. Also in this example, additional heat exchangers 12 can be provided in different positions.
- additional heat exchangers 12 are supplied with a cooling mixture as explained in the previous examples and can be connected to a reservoir 15 and/or reservoir 16 and/or first and/or second conversion units 29, 30.
- the present invention also refers to a method for operating a cryogenic unit 1 for gas treatment.
- the method comprises
- additionally cooling the gas being treated occurs by:
- the main flow can pass through the heat exchanger 12 or bypass 17.
