Definitions
- Process streams in refineries are often contaminated with components that are detrimental to down-stream process units and/or are corrosive to the process equipment, or they are contaminated with solid matter, such as iron rust, which tends to interfere with process lines, valves, and pumps.
- the contaminants must be removed before the streams enter certain parts of the process or process units in order to maintain the process or unit performance.
- a filtration screen, filter housing or cartridge containing adsorbents or filtration media is usually placed in front of the process unit to remove the bulk of the undesirable matters.
- a RONNING-PETTER multiplex filter is used to remove solid matters from atmospheric distillation residual oil before it is fed to a hydrotreater at temperatures around 200° C.
- Tri-cluster elements are installed in the filter to increase the filtration area.
- a drawback of these filtration devices is that they can be overwhelmed by large quantities of solid matters and iron rust from corrosion in a short time. As a result, processes streams frequently bypass such filtration devices as contaminant build-up cause operational problems, such as increased pressures and/or reduced flow rates. In addition, rejuvenation of conventional filtration devices requires their disassembly replacement of the filter element, which is a costly, time-consuming, and environmentally hazardous task.
- Process streams in chemical plants are generally cleaner than those of refineries in terms of solid matters, but chemical streams usually contain polar components that polymerize to form solid sludge, or decompose to form more active species that cause corrosion or related problems.
- Activated carbon is frequently used as the adsorbent to remove the active species from the process stream.
- U.S. Pat. No. 4,861,900 to Johnson describes the use of activated carbon to remove small amounts of compounds that are catalyst poisons in the catalytic hydrogenation of sulfolenes to sulfolanes.
- U.S. Pat. No. 3,470,087 to Broughton describes a technique for removing polar solvent from a hydrocarbon product stream through an adsorption cycle with activated carbon and thereafter, recovering the adsorbed solvent through a desorption cycle. It has been demonstrated that adsorption-desorption arrangements with activated carbon is impractical because these units become quickly saturated with solid sludge or fine rust particles that strongly adheres to adsorbent thereby making the units difficult to clean. Other adsorbents, such alumina, silica gel and zeolitic materials have also been employed to remove polar matters from process streams. For example, U.S. Pat. No.
- 3,953,324 to Deal describes a method of adsorbing polar solvent with silica gel from a product stream at low temperatures and then flashing a feed mixture at higher temperatures in order to recover the adsorbed solvent from silica gel. This method encounters that same problems attendant with adsorption-desorption methods using activated carbon.
- This invention is directed novel filters that employ magnets for removing iron rust particulates and polymeric sludge, which are paramagnetic in nature, from refinery and chemical process streams.
- the performance of these filters is attributable to the presence of the magnetic fields that are induced by the magnets.
- the invention is based in part on the recognition that carbon steel, a common material in plant construction, is readily corroded by acidic components prevalent in process streams. The corrosion causes the formation of ferrous ions, which in turn react with sulfur, oxygen and water to form paramagnetic FeS, FeO, Fe(OH) 2 , Fe(CN) 6 , etc. that manifest as fine particles or visible flakes.
- These paramagnetic materials will attract other degradation sludge, making the whole mass of contaminants paramagnetic. Consequently, the entire mass of the contaminants can be readily removed from the process stream with the magnet filter device of the present invention.
- the invention is directed to a filtration apparatus for continuous online removal of contaminants from a process stream that comprises: (i) a pressure vessel that has a compartment, (ii) at least one magnet that is positioned within the compartment; and means for channeling the flow of the process stream containing contaminants pass the at least one magnet.
- Each magnet is preferably encased in housing that is made of stainless steel or other suitable corrosive resistant material.
- the housing can be integral with the vessel.
- the housing exterior, which is in contact with the process stream, serves as an adsorptive surface to which contaminants adhere.
- the inventive filtration apparatus can be readily scaled and configured to accommodate different operating conditions in order to minimize downtime and hazardous operations.
- FIGS. 1A and 1B illustrate cross sectional side and top views, respectively, of a filtration device with housing in the form of removable adsorptive tubes for low solid matters removal;
- FIGS. 2A and 2B illustrate cross sectional side and top views, respectively, of a filtration device with housing in the form of non-removable adsorptive tubes for low solid matters removal;
- FIGS. 3A and 3B illustrate cross sectional side and top views, respectively, of a filtration device with housing in the form of removable adsorptive tubes for high solid matters removal;
- FIGS. 4A and 4B illustrate cross sectional side and top views, respectively, of a filtration device with housing in the form of non-removable adsorptive tubes for high solid matters removal;
- FIGS. 5A , 5 B and 5 C illustrate cross sectional side, top, and front views, respectively, of a filtration device with housing in the form removable adsorptive slates for high solid matters removal;
- FIGS. 6A , 6 B and 6 C illustrate cross sectional side, top and front views, respectively, of a filtration device with housing in the form of non-removable adsorptive slates for high solid matters removal.
- Filtration devices of the present invention are particularly effective in removing contaminants from process streams.
- One source of the contaminants is the corrosion of process equipment and another source is the presence of active species in the process streams that ultimately lead to the formation of polar polymeric sludge. It has been demonstrated that these contaminants are paramagnetic in nature and therefore are attracted to magnets.
- the contaminants generally comprise a mixture of different materials are acidic, low in pH, black and viscous, and tend to deposit throughout the process lines, including filters, heat exchangers, catalyst beds, thereby reducing process capacity and efficiency.
- Magnetic intensity is temperature dependent. High temperatures can lead to a reduction in the magnetic field strength so it is preferable to avoid excessive operating temperatures which would rendering the filtration apparatus less efficient. Conversely, low temperatures operations are to be avoid especially during the cleaning stage otherwise, the paramagnetic matters will adhere to the stainless steel adsorptive housing surface too strongly so that contaminants do not readily fall off after the magnetic field is removed.
- the operating temperatures for the filtration devices typically range from 10 to 200° C., and preferably from 20 to 150° C.
- the superficial velocity of the process stream passing through the filtration devices typically ranges from 10 to 10,000 v/v/Hr, and preferably from 50 to 5,000 v/v/Hr.
- the pressure drop across the filtration device is an indicator of its remaining capacity. As the pressure drop reaches between 1 to 10 Kg/Cm 2 , and preferably between 1 to 5 Kg/Cm 2 , the filtration device should be removed from the service and cleaned.
- the present invention provides a continuous filtration device designed specifically for chemical process streams that contain relatively small amounts of solid matters and active substances that are responsible for generating polymerized sludge or corrosion byproducts.
- a novel filtration device is applied to rejuvenate the extraction solvent in the circulation loop of an aromatic extraction process.
- This continuous filtration device can rejuvenate the contaminated extraction solvent by removing degradation and corrosion products from the solvent stream continuously without interruption thereby achieving high capacity and operation efficiency for the aromatic extraction process.
- the workload of the existing, high-cost solvent regenerator is substantially reduced and the level of messy, hazardous solid sludge is substantially reduced as well.
- a preferred example of the extraction solvent is sulfolane.
- FIGS. 1A and 1B comprises a high-pressure vessel 102 defining a compartment 116 that is sealed from the environment with a removable top cover 104 .
- a supporting tray 108 is positioned within compartment 116 to accommodate a plurality of magnet housings 114 .
- Supporting tray 108 is preferably configured as a rack with a round circumference that matches the contour of compartment 116 .
- Each magnet housing 114 encases a magnetic bar 110 that has been removably inserted therein.
- Each magnet housing which serves to isolate magnet bar 110 from direct contact with the contaminated process stream, is configured as a vertically elongated stainless steel tube with a square cross section and the plurality of tubes form a circular arrangement that is held by supporting tray 108 .
- the number of housings 114 and associated magnetic bars 110 employed in filtration device 100 typically ranges from 1 to 30 or more.
- a spring 106 is positioned between top cover 104 and inner cover 118 , which is on the plurality of housing 114 , to maintain the position of plurality of housing 114 within compartment 116 .
- a fine mesh screen cylinder 112 which is configured as a basket made from metallic mesh material, is installed in the lower part of compartment 116 and encloses the plurality of magnet housing 114 .
- the plurality of magnet housing 114 fits within the inner perimeter of screen cylinder 112 .
- contaminated a process stream containing sulfolane solvent enters filtration device 100 through inlet 130 and the flow of the solvent is channeled initially toward the lower end of compartment 116 so that the contaminated solvent flows through screen cylinder 112 pass the plurality of magnet housing 114 before the treated solvent exits through outlet 132 .
- the degradation and corrosion products are attracted and adhere to the stainless steel tubes of housing 114 with the aid of powerful magnetic bars 110 .
