Description

本発明は、ガスハイドレート濃度の測定方法及び測定装置に関する。   The present invention relates to a method and an apparatus for measuring a gas hydrate concentration.

近年、天然ガスやメタンなどの安全かつ経済的な輸送・貯蔵手段として、それら原料ガスの固体状の水和物であるガスハイドレートを用いる方法が注目されている。   In recent years, a method using gas hydrate, which is a solid hydrate of these raw material gases, has attracted attention as a safe and economical means for transporting and storing natural gas and methane.

このガスハイドレートは一般に高圧・低温下(例えば、5.4MPa・5℃)で生成され、その生成方法としては、原料水中に原料ガスを気泡として吹き込みながら撹拌するいわゆる「気液撹拌方式」(例えば、特許文献1を参照)が代表的なものとして知られている。   This gas hydrate is generally produced under high pressure and low temperature (for example, 5.4 MPa · 5 ° C.), and as its production method, a so-called “gas-liquid agitation method” in which the raw material gas is blown into the raw material water as bubbles is stirred. For example, see Patent Document 1).

ガスハイドレート事業の商業化を図る上からは、ガスハイドレート生成装置により一定の濃度のガスハイドレートを生成する必要があるが、生成されるガスハイドレートは多量の水の中に浮遊してスラリー状となっているため、ガスハイドレート濃度を直接測定することは一般に困難である。   In order to commercialize the gas hydrate business, it is necessary to generate a gas hydrate with a certain concentration using a gas hydrate generator, but the generated gas hydrate is suspended in a large amount of water. Since it is in the form of a slurry, it is generally difficult to directly measure the gas hydrate concentration.

現状のガスハイドレート濃度の測定方法の一例を以下に説明する。   An example of the current method for measuring the gas hydrate concentration will be described below.

この測定方法においては、図5に示すように、あらかじめ内部をガスハイドレートの生成圧力よりも低い圧力(例えば、3.5MPa)に保持したサンプリング容器30を用いる。まず、サンプリング容器30をガスハイドレート生成容器31に、エアロックを構成する2つのボール弁32、33を介して接続する。そして、これらのボール弁32、33を同時に開くことにより、2つの容器間の差圧を利用してサンプリング容器30内にガスハイドレートと付着水からなる液状試料と未反応の原料ガスを導入する。所定の量を導入した後にボール弁32、33を閉じ、その中間部でサンプリング容器30を生成容器31から切り離す。切り離し後のサンプリング容器30を大気圧下でガスハイドレートが分解しにくい温度(約−20℃)まで冷却して液状試料を凍結させてから、ガス抜き弁34を開いて未反応の原料ガスを外部へ放出する。ガスを放出した後に、サンプリング容器30の総重量と風袋重量から液状試料の重量Wを求める。最後に、サンプリング容器30をガスハイドレートの生成温度以上まで加熱してガスハイドレートを原料ガスと原料水に分解した後に、サンプリング容器30内の残留水を取り出してその重量Wを測定する。 In this measurement method, as shown in FIG. 5, a sampling container 30 is used in which the interior is previously held at a pressure lower than the gas hydrate generation pressure (for example, 3.5 MPa). First, the sampling container 30 is connected to the gas hydrate generation container 31 via two ball valves 32 and 33 constituting an air lock. Then, by opening these ball valves 32 and 33 at the same time, a liquid sample composed of gas hydrate and adhering water and an unreacted source gas are introduced into the sampling container 30 by utilizing the differential pressure between the two containers. . After the predetermined amount is introduced, the ball valves 32 and 33 are closed, and the sampling container 30 is separated from the production container 31 at an intermediate portion thereof. After the separation, the sampling container 30 is cooled to a temperature (about −20 ° C.) at which the gas hydrate is hardly decomposed at atmospheric pressure to freeze the liquid sample, and then the gas release valve 34 is opened to remove the unreacted source gas. Release to the outside. After releasing the gas, obtains the weight W s of the liquid sample from the total weight and the tare weight of the sampling vessel 30. Finally, the sampling vessel 30 is heated to a gas hydrate production temperature or higher to decompose the gas hydrate into raw material gas and raw water, and then the residual water in the sampling vessel 30 is taken out and its weight Ww is measured.

このようにして測定した液状試料の重量Wと残留水(付着水+原料水)の重量Wから、ガスハイドレートを生成していた原料ガスの重量Wを求める。
=W−W ---(1)
From the weight W s of the liquid sample thus measured and the weight W w of the residual water (attached water + raw material water), the weight W g of the raw material gas that has generated the gas hydrate is obtained.
W g = W s −W w --- (1)

ガスハイドレートの重量Wは、水和数をnとすると以下のようになる。
=W×(1+n×M/M) ---(2)
The weight W h of the gas hydrate is as follows when the hydration number is n.
W h = W g × (1 + n × M w / M g ) --- (2)

ここで、M及びMは、それぞれ原料ガス及び原料水の分子量を表す。 Here, M w and M g each represent molecular weight of the raw material gas and the raw water.

従って、ガスハイドレート濃度α(重量%)は、次のように求められる。
α=W/W×100 ---(3)
Therefore, the gas hydrate concentration α h (% by weight) is obtained as follows.
α h = W h / W s × 100 --- (3)

しかし、このようなガスハイドレート濃度の測定方法では、サンプリング容器を−20℃まで冷却して液状試料を凍結させる必要があるため、測定に費用と時間がかかり効率が悪いという問題があった。
特開2000−302701号公報
However, in such a gas hydrate concentration measurement method, it is necessary to cool the sampling container to −20 ° C. to freeze the liquid sample, and thus there is a problem that the measurement is expensive and time consuming and the efficiency is poor.

この原料ガスとしては天然ガスを用いることが望ましい。   As this raw material gas, it is desirable to use natural gas.

また、上記のガスハイドレート濃度の測定方法を実施するための本発明は、原料ガスと原料水とから生成されるガスハイドレートと付着水とからなる液状試料中のガスハイドレート濃度の測定装置であって、ガスハイドレートと付着水とが流れる管路に開閉手段を有するバイパス管を介して測定容器を接続し、測定容器に加熱手段を設けると共に、差圧弁及びガス流量計と、排水弁とを測定容器にそれぞれ接続してなることを特徴とするガスハイドレート濃度の測定装置である。   Further, the present invention for carrying out the above method for measuring the gas hydrate concentration is an apparatus for measuring the gas hydrate concentration in a liquid sample comprising a gas hydrate generated from a raw material gas and raw water and adhering water. A measurement vessel is connected to a pipeline through which gas hydrate and adhering water flow through a bypass pipe having an opening / closing means, a heating means is provided in the measurement vessel, a differential pressure valve, a gas flow meter, and a drain valve Is a gas hydrate concentration measuring device characterized in that each is connected to a measuring container.

本発明であるガスハイドレート濃度の測定方法によれば、ガスハイドレートと付着水が流れる管路に測定容器をバイパスとして接続することにより測定容器内に液状試料を導入し、測定容器をガスハイドレートの平衡温度以上に加熱してガスハイドレートを原料ガスと原料水とに分解し、次いで測定容器外に放出された原料ガスの体積及び組成と、測定容器内に残留した原料水と付着水との重量とからガスハイドレートの濃度を求めるようにしたので、測定容器を冷却して液状試料を凍結させる必要がないため、ガスハイドレートの濃度を効率よく測定することができる。   According to the gas hydrate concentration measurement method of the present invention, a liquid sample is introduced into a measurement container by connecting the measurement container as a bypass to a pipeline through which the gas hydrate and adhering water flow.

以下に、本発明の実施の形態について、図面を参照して説明する。   Embodiments of the present invention will be described below with reference to the drawings.

本発明に係るガスハイドレート濃度の測定方法は、ガスハイドレートと付着水とからなる液状試料中に含まれるガスハイドレートの濃度を測定するものである。ガスハイドレートを生成する原料ガスとしては天然ガスが例示されるが、所定の圧力及び温度でガスハイドレートを生成するものならば特に種類は問わず、天然ガスの成分であるメタン、エタン、プロパンなどの炭化水素ガス及びそれらの混合ガス、あるいは二酸化炭素、硫化水素及びそれらの混合ガスなどでもよい。また、ガスハイドレートの生成圧力及び生成温度とは、上記のそれぞれの原料ガスと水からガスハイドレートを生成する際の圧力範囲及び温度範囲をいう。この生成圧力と生成温度は、ガスハイドレートとガスと水(又は氷)が平衡状態にある三相平衡条件よりも低温・高圧側である安定領域の圧力と温度に設定する必要がある。   The method for measuring gas hydrate concentration according to the present invention measures the concentration of gas hydrate contained in a liquid sample composed of gas hydrate and adhering water. Natural gas is exemplified as a raw material gas for producing gas hydrate, but any kind of gas may be used as long as it produces gas hydrate at a predetermined pressure and temperature, and methane, ethane, and propane, which are components of natural gas. Or a mixed gas thereof, or carbon dioxide, hydrogen sulfide and a mixed gas thereof. Further, the gas hydrate production pressure and production temperature refer to the pressure range and temperature range in producing gas hydrate from each of the above raw material gases and water. It is necessary to set the generation pressure and the generation temperature to a pressure and temperature in a stable region at a lower temperature and a higher pressure than a three-phase equilibrium condition in which gas hydrate, gas, and water (or ice) are in an equilibrium state.

図1は、本発明の実施形態からなるガスハイドレート濃度の測定装置である。   FIG. 1 is a gas hydrate concentration measuring apparatus according to an embodiment of the present invention.

このガスハイドレート濃度の測定装置(以下、単に「測定装置」という。)1は、ガスハイドレートと付着水からなるスラリー状のガスハイドレート2が流れる管路3にバイパス管4を介して接続する測定容器5と、その測定容器5の外側に設置された加熱ヒーター6及び測定容器5に接続された差圧弁7、ガス流量計8及び排水弁9から主に構成される。測定容器5は、バイパス管4の一部として形成することもできる。バイパス管4には、上流側及び下流側に開閉手段である入口弁10及び出口弁11が、それぞれ設けられている。差圧弁7とガス流量計8は排気弁12を介して測定容器5に順に接続されており、差圧弁7と排気弁12の間には圧力計13が設置されている。また、ガス流量計8の下流側には、ガスの組成を分析するガスクロマトグラフィ14が接続されている。なお、温度計15は、測定容器5の内部温度を測定するためのものである。   This gas hydrate concentration measuring device (hereinafter simply referred to as “measuring device”) 1 is connected via a bypass pipe 4 to a conduit 3 through which a slurry-like gas hydrate 2 composed of gas hydrate and adhering water flows. The measurement vessel 5 is mainly composed of a heater 6 installed outside the measurement vessel 5, a differential pressure valve 7 connected to the measurement vessel 5, a gas flow meter 8, and a drain valve 9. The measurement container 5 can also be formed as a part of the bypass pipe 4. The bypass pipe 4 is provided with an inlet valve 10 and an outlet valve 11 as opening / closing means on the upstream side and the downstream side, respectively. The differential pressure valve 7 and the gas flow meter 8 are sequentially connected to the measurement container 5 via an exhaust valve 12, and a pressure gauge 13 is installed between the differential pressure valve 7 and the exhaust valve 12. A gas chromatograph 14 for analyzing the gas composition is connected to the downstream side of the gas flow meter 8. The thermometer 15 is for measuring the internal temperature of the measurement container 5.

スラリー状のガスハイドレート2が流れる管路3としては、図2に示すような、ガスハイドレート生成装置20の循環水ライン21を例示することができる。このガスハイドレート生成装置20は、耐圧容器22内に貯留する冷水23内に気泡として吹き出された原料ガス24を回転する撹拌羽根25により撹拌することで原料ガス24を水和させてガスハイドレートを生成するものである。その生成されたガスハイドレートは、スラリー状となって耐圧容器22の底部から送出ポンプ25により脱水装置等の図示しない次工程へ送り出されるが、その一部は循環水ライン21に流れ込んで熱交換器26で反応熱が除去された後に、原料となる水27と共に耐圧容器内へ戻されるようになっている。本発明に係る測定装置1は、この循環水ライン21における送出ポンプ25の下流側に設置するのが望ましい。なお、ここではいわゆる気液撹拌方式によるガスハイドレート生成装置を示しているが、いわゆる水スプレー方式(例えば、特開2000−264852号公報を参照)によるガスハイドレート生成装置でもよい。   As the pipe line 3 through which the slurry-like gas hydrate 2 flows, a circulating water line 21 of the gas hydrate generator 20 as shown in FIG. 2 can be exemplified. The gas hydrate generator 20 hydrates the raw material gas 24 by stirring the raw material gas 24 blown out as bubbles in the cold water 23 stored in the pressure resistant vessel 22 with a rotating stirring blade 25 to gas hydrate the gas hydrate. Is generated. The generated gas hydrate is in the form of a slurry and is sent from the bottom of the pressure vessel 22 to the next process (not shown) such as a dehydrator by the delivery pump 25. A part of the gas hydrate flows into the circulating water line 21 to exchange heat. After the reaction heat is removed by the vessel 26, it is returned to the pressure vessel together with water 27 as a raw material. The measuring device 1 according to the present invention is desirably installed on the downstream side of the delivery pump 25 in the circulating water line 21. In addition, although the gas hydrate production | generation apparatus by what is called a gas-liquid stirring system is shown here, the gas hydrate production | generation apparatus by what is called a water spray system (for example, refer Unexamined-Japanese-Patent No. 2000-264852) may be used.

このような測定装置を用いたガスハイドレート濃度の測定方法を以下に説明する。   A method for measuring the gas hydrate concentration using such a measuring apparatus will be described below.

まず、入口弁10と出口弁11を開くことにより管路3からガスハイドレートと付着水2が測定容器5内を通過するようにバイパスさせる。なお、管路3に切替弁16を設けて、ガスハイドレートと付着水2の全量がバイパス管4へ流れるようにしてもよい。これにより、測定容器5内はガスハイドレートの生成圧力(例えば、5.4MPa)及び生成温度(例えば、5℃)に維持されることになる。次に、出口弁11を閉じて、測定対象となる液状試料を測定容器5内に貯留させる。一定時間経過後に入口弁10を閉じ、加熱ヒーター6により測定容器5を容器内の圧力で決まるガスハイドレートの平衡温度以上(例えば、10℃)に加熱してガスハイドレートを原料ガスと原料水に分解する。そして排気弁12を開き、測定容器5内が液状試料の貯留時の圧力に維持されるように、圧力計13を確認しつつ差圧弁7を開いて、測定容器5内の原料ガスをガス流量計8へ流して体積Vを測定すると共に、ガスクロマトグラフィ14でガスの組成を分析する。測定容器5の内部に残留した原料水と付着水は、排水弁9を開いて測定容器5外に抜き出して重量Wを測定する。 First, the inlet valve 10 and the outlet valve 11 are opened to bypass the gas hydrate and the adhering water 2 from the pipe line 3 so as to pass through the measurement container 5. Note that a switching valve 16 may be provided in the pipe line 3 so that the entire amount of gas hydrate and adhering water 2 flows to the bypass pipe 4. Thereby, the inside of the measurement container 5 is maintained at the generation pressure (for example, 5.4 MPa) and the generation temperature (for example, 5 ° C.) of the gas hydrate. Next, the outlet valve 11 is closed, and the liquid sample to be measured is stored in the measurement container 5. After a certain period of time, the inlet valve 10 is closed, and the measuring vessel 5 is heated by the heater 6 to a temperature equal to or higher than the equilibrium temperature of the gas hydrate determined by the pressure in the vessel (for example, 10 ° C.). Disassembled into Then, the exhaust valve 12 is opened, and the differential pressure valve 7 is opened while checking the pressure gauge 13 so that the inside of the measurement container 5 is maintained at the pressure at the time of storage of the liquid sample, and the raw material gas in the measurement container 5 is supplied to the gas flow rate. The gas is flowed to a total of 8 to measure the volume V g and the gas composition is analyzed by the gas chromatography 14. The raw material water and adhering water remaining inside the measurement container 5 are opened to the outside of the measurement container 5 by opening the drain valve 9, and the weight Ww is measured.

なお、図3に示す別の実施形態のように、測定容器5の形状を下に凸のU字状として、その最底部に排水弁9を設けることにより、原料水と付着水を測定容器5外へ容易に抜き出すことができる。あるいは、図4に示す更に別の実施形態のように、排水弁9を設ける代わりに入口弁10と出口弁11を二重にして、測定容器5を管路3に対して脱着可能とすることで、測定容器5の風袋重量と取り外し後の測定重量から原料水と付着水の重量Wを求めることもできる。 In addition, like another embodiment shown in FIG. 3, the shape of the measurement container 5 is made downward U-shaped, and the drainage valve 9 is provided at the bottom of the measurement container 5 so that the raw water and the adhering water are measured in the measurement container 5. Can be easily pulled out. Alternatively, as in still another embodiment shown in FIG. 4, instead of providing the drain valve 9, the inlet valve 10 and the outlet valve 11 are doubled so that the measurement container 5 can be attached to and detached from the pipe line 3. in, it is also possible to determine the weight W w of the raw water and the water adhered from the measured weight of the tare weight and after removal of the measuring vessel 5.

測定した原料ガスの体積Vについては、原料ガスの組成分析結果を基に重量Wに変換する。そして、原料ガスの重量W及び原料水と付着水の重量Wから液状試料の重量Wを以下のように求める。
=W+W ---(4)
The measured volume V g of the source gas is converted into a weight W g based on the composition analysis result of the source gas. Then, determine the weight W g and raw water of the raw material gas from the weight W w of water adhered to the weight W s of the liquid sample, as follows.
W s = W g + W w --- (4)

これから、前出の(1)〜(3)式を用いることにより、ガスハイドレート濃度αを求めることができる。 From this, the gas hydrate concentration α h can be obtained by using the above-described equations (1) to (3).

以上のように、本発明に係るガスハイドレート濃度の測定方法及び測定装置によれば、測定容器を冷却して液状試料を凍結させる必要がないため、液状試料中のガスハイドレート濃度を効率よく測定することができる。   As described above, according to the method and apparatus for measuring gas hydrate concentration according to the present invention, it is not necessary to cool the measurement container and freeze the liquid sample, so the gas hydrate concentration in the liquid sample can be efficiently reduced. Can be measured.
