Definitions
- the invention relates to a method for producing a synthesis gas containing carbon monoxide and hydrogen, in which oxygen is made available at an inlet pressure and is then thermochemically converted in a reformer together with a carbon-containing charge and carbon dioxide by partial oxidation or autothermal reforming to form a crude synthesis gas containing carbon dioxide, which is used for Obtaining the synthesis gas is subjected to a gas scrubbing in which a carbon dioxide-laden scrubbing agent is obtained, from which carbon dioxide is separated for recycling into the reformer.
- the invention relates to a device for carrying out the method according to the invention.
- pressure level is used below to characterize pressures, which is intended to express the fact that pressures do not have to be used in the form of exact pressure values in order to implement an inventive concept. However, such pressures typically vary within certain ranges, for example ⁇ 1%, 5%, 10%, 20% or even 50% around a mean value. Different pressure levels can be in disjunctive areas or in areas that overlap. In particular, pressure levels include unavoidable or to be expected pressure losses that occur, for example, due to flow effects. The pressure levels given in bar are absolute pressures.
- a carbonaceous starting material which is natural gas, for example, is processed into a carbonaceous feedstock by desulfurization, heating and compression, and then thermochemically in a reformer with the supply of oxygen, carbon dioxide and possibly water at a pressure of between 5 and 80 bar converted to a crude synthesis gas.
- the synthesis gas produced in this way which in addition to carbon monoxide and Hydrogen also contains large amounts of carbon dioxide and water as well as other substances that are undesirable in the synthesis gas, is then subjected to a number of separation steps in order to obtain the synthesis gas, which largely consists of hydrogen and carbon monoxide, in the required composition.
- Carbon dioxide separated from the crude synthesis gas is returned to the reformer, where it is combined with hydrogen
- CO 2 + H 2 — ⁇ CO + H 2 O reacts to form carbon monoxide and water or with elementary carbon (e.g. soot) according to CO2 + C 2CO to form carbon monoxide, so that the proportion of carbon monoxide in the crude synthesis gas increases and carbon dioxide is released into the atmosphere reduced.
- elementary carbon e.g. soot
- the raw synthesis gas is usually cooled to remove water before it is brought into contact with a scrubber in a scrubber absorber column, which is capable of absorbing carbon dioxide at a first pressure much more efficiently than hydrogen and carbon monoxide.
- the absorbed substances are separated from the loaded scrubbing agent in the regeneration section of the gas scrubber in order to obtain a regenerated scrubbing agent for reuse in the absorber.
- the loaded detergent is expanded to a second pressure in a desorber, with part of the absorbed carbon dioxide being released into the gas phase.
- a gas atmosphere is also generated by the partial evaporation of the loaded detergent, which acts as a stripping gas due to its low carbon dioxide partial pressure.
- the carbon dioxide separated from the loaded detergent in this way is obtained at a pressure level that is well below the pressure at which the thermochemical conversion takes place.
- the patent application CA2634302A1 proposes, in addition to scrubbing vapor, to use at least part of the natural gas used to generate synthesis gas as stripping gas, which is available at a pressure higher than that at which carbon dioxide can be obtained from the loaded scrubbing agent simply by expansion and stripping with scrubbing agent vapor.
- the loaded scrubbing agent cannot be completely freed from carbon dioxide because of the carbon dioxide usually already contained in the natural gas. which is why, regardless of the amount of natural gas available for stripping, it is always necessary to expand the scrubbing agent so that part of the carbon dioxide is at a pressure level that is significantly lower than that of the natural gas and can therefore only be returned with a significantly greater energy input than the remaining carbon dioxide.
- the object of the present invention is therefore to provide a method of the generic type and a device for carrying it out, by means of which the carbon dioxide contained in the loaded detergent can be supplied to the thermochemical conversion with less energy than is possible according to the prior art.
- this object is achieved according to the invention in that at least part of the oxygen provided is used as stripping gas upstream of the reformer during the separation of carbon dioxide from the scrubbing agent laden with carbon dioxide.
- the inlet pressure of the oxygen intended for use in the thermochemical conversion is usually higher than the pressure at which carbon dioxide can be obtained from the loaded detergent simply by expansion and stripping with detergent vapor. Since the carbon dioxide separated from the loaded scrubbing agent during stripping can be recovered using the oxygen pressure, it is possible to save on compression work when recycling the carbon dioxide.
- the stripping according to the invention is preferably carried out at the inlet pressure level of the oxygen made available. If the oxygen is available free of carbon dioxide, as is usually the case, the carbon dioxide content of the detergent can also be reduced by the stripping according to the invention to the lowest value required for regeneration without partially evaporating the loaded detergent or below the input pressure level of the available having to relax oxygen.
- the stripping of the loaded detergent is preferably carried out in a first desorber designed as a stripping column, from the bottom of which at least substantially carbon dioxide-free detergent is collected.
- the oxygen enriched with carbon dioxide during stripping is drawn off from the top of the first desorber, possibly compressed and fed to the reformer.
- detergent vapor can be used, which is expediently generated by evaporating part of the bottom fraction. Since detergent vapor is discharged from the first desorber with the top fraction in this process variant, it makes sense to cool the top fraction in order to condense out detergent and return it to the first desorber.
- the synthesis gas is to be obtained at a very low pressure level and the raw synthesis gas is scrubbed at a pressure that is lower than the inlet pressure of the oxygen, it may be useful to reduce the pressure of the scrubbing agent loaded during the gas scrubbing before the stripping according to the invention Oxygen to the input pressure level of the oxygen made available or - to raise to the pressure level at which the thermochemical conversion is carried out - if this is lower.
- the treated detergent can become enriched with oxygen.
- the nitrogen enriched with oxygen and possibly carbon dioxide is preferably discarded.
- a further embodiment of the method according to the invention provides that the temperature of the oxygen is adjusted to a defined value before it is used as stripping gas.
- the temperature of the stripping gas is preferably adjusted to the temperature of the scrubbing agent to be regenerated.
- the invention provides for the oxygen provided as stripping gas to be heated or cooled against one or more process streams to be cooled.
- the method according to the invention can be used with particular preference when the gas scrubbing is operated with an inorganic and non-flammable scrubbing agent.
- An example of such a wash is the potash wash, in which an aqueous potassium carbonate solution, which can be enriched with catalysts, is used as the washing agent.
- the invention relates to a device for generating a carbon monoxide and hydrogen-containing synthesis gas, with a reformer, a gas washing device connected to the reformer with an absorber and a regeneration part, and feed lines via which a carbon-containing charge, oxygen and carbon dioxide can be introduced into the reformer.
- a reformer a gas washing device connected to the reformer with an absorber and a regeneration part, and feed lines via which a carbon-containing charge, oxygen and carbon dioxide can be introduced into the reformer.
- a gas washing device connected to the reformer with an absorber and a regeneration part, and feed lines via which a carbon-containing charge, oxygen and carbon dioxide can be introduced into the reformer.
- the stated object is achieved according to the invention in that the regeneration part of the gas scrubbing device comprises a first desorber connected to the supply line for the oxygen, in which at least part of the oxygen to be supplied to the reformer can be used as stripping gas in the regeneration of the scrubbing agent laden with carbon dioxide.
- the first desorber is connected to the reformer via a line and possibly a compressor in such a way that the desorber enriched with carbon dioxide during stripping Oxygen can be fed to the reformer.
- the first desorber is preferably designed as a stripping column in the bottom of which scrubbing agent that is at least largely free of carbon dioxide can collect.
- the bottom space of the stripping column can have a heating device, by means of which part of the bottom fraction can be vaporized to support the stripping action of the oxygen.
- the device according to the invention has a condenser for condensing detergent vapor, which is discharged with the oxygen stream from the first desorber. It makes sense for the condenser to be connected to the first desorber in such a way that detergent that has condensed out can be returned to the first desorber.
- An expedient embodiment of the invention provides a second desorber connected to the first desorber and the absorber of the gas scrubbing device, in which the scrubbing agent treated in the first desorber by stripping with oxygen can be subjected to further stripping with nitrogen in order to remove dissolved oxygen before being passed on to the absorber removed from the detergent.
- An exhaust pipe is preferably attached to the head of the second desorber, via which the nitrogen enriched with oxygen and possibly carbon dioxide during the stripping can be drawn off and disposed of, e.g. by releasing it into the atmosphere.
- the supply line for the oxygen preferably comprises a temperature control device arranged upstream of the first desorber for setting the temperature of the part of the oxygen provided as stripping gas.
- Heat can expediently be supplied to or withdrawn from the oxygen in a targeted manner by the temperature control device in order to adjust its temperature to the temperature of the loaded detergent to be treated in the first desorber.
- the temperature control device is preferably designed as a heat exchanger, through which heat can be transferred indirectly from a heat carrier, which is, for example, a process flow, to the oxygen or from the oxygen to the heat carrier.
- FIG. 1 shows a preferred embodiment of the invention with a device for removing oxygen from detergent to be regenerated.
- a hydrocarbon-containing feed 1 such as natural gas and carbon dioxide 2 are introduced into the reformer R, which is a POX reactor, for example, for conversion into a carbon monoxide-rich crude synthesis gas 3 .
- the oxygen required for the reforming reaction enters the reformer R via line 4.
- the crude synthesis gas 6, which now largely consists of hydrogen, carbon monoxide and carbon dioxide is fed to the lower end of the absorber column A of the gas washing device G, where it flows upwards and is brought into intensive contact with a detergent 7 .
- the scrubbing agent 9 which collects in the sump space of the absorber column A and is laden with carbon dioxide, is expanded via the throttle element a in the first separator D1 in order to convert the co-absorbed hydrogen and co-absorbed carbon monoxide into the gas phase and to increase the synthesis gas yield Line 10 and the compressor V1 returned to the crude synthesis gas 6.
- the loaded scrubbing agent 11 After being heated in the heat exchanger W1, is expanded via the throttle element b in the first desorber D1 arranged in the regeneration part T of the gas washing device G to the pressure level of the oxygen made available via line 12, with a first part of the carbon dioxide contained is released.
- Carbon dioxide-free oxygen 12 is fed as stripping gas to the first desorber D1, which is designed as a stripping column, via its bottom space, and on its way up further carbon dioxide is separated from the scrubbing agent conveyed in countercurrent. From a portion of the largely carbon dioxide-free detergent collecting in the sump space, detergent vapor is generated with the aid of the heating device H, which also rises and supports the stripping effect of the oxygen 12 .
- a gas mixture 13 can be drawn off at the pressure level of the oxygen 12, which also contains vaporous detergent in addition to oxygen and carbon dioxide.
- the detergent is condensed and then separated in the second separator E2 from the gas phase 4 consisting largely of oxygen and carbon dioxide. While the liquid detergent flows back into the first desorber D1, the gas phase 4 containing oxygen and carbon dioxide passes through the second compressor V2 as a feedstock into the reformer R.
- the largely carbon dioxide-free scrubbing agent 15 is drawn off from the bottom of the first desorber D1, cooled in the first heat exchanger W1 and sent to a second desorber D2 gave up his head.
- nitrogen 16 is fed in as stripping gas, with the aid of which the oxygen is removed from the scrubbing agent conveyed in countercurrent.
- the oxygen-laden stripping nitrogen 17 drawn off from the top of the second desorber is discarded, while the regenerated scrubbing agent 7, which is free of oxygen and carbon dioxide, is drawn off from the sump space of the second desorber D2 with the aid of the pump P and, after cooling, is used again in the third heat exchanger W3 for gas scrubbing is used in absorber A.
