Definitions

  • the present invention relates to the removal of volatile organic compounds (VOC's) from gas streams containing the same and recovery of the removed VOC's in liquid form.
  • VOC's have been identified in various industries, including the automobile paint spraying, printing and publishing, wood product fabrications, pulp and paper, pharmaceuticals, adhesives and electronics industry.
  • VOC's are hydrocarbons which are photo-chemically active and thereby create urban smog and ozone or ozone precursors. Many VOC's are.unpleasantly odorous as well as present health hazards. Regulations exist in many countries to regulate such emissions, in waste water or soils and in air emissions.
  • the effluent gas stream containing the VOC's is contacted with a spray of fine liquid droplets of a suitable solvent for the VOC's and the VOC's thereby are absorbed into the solvent droplets and removed from the gas stream.
  • the absorbing operation may be carried out at ambient temperature of about 20 to 25 ⁇ C or a below ambient temperature.
  • VOC's may comprise alcohols, esters, etones and aromatics of various types or other organic compounds and a solvent or solvents from which the spray is formed is chosen to suit the material comprising the VOC's.
  • the VOC's include condensible and non-condensible VOC's, odorous and non-odorous VOC's and differing boiling point VOC's.
  • the fine spray of liquid solvent droplets is formed in a flowing gas stream containing the VOC's in any convenient manner, such as by using dual-fluid spray nozzles.
  • the liquid droplets having absorbed VOC's can be coalesced to form a solution of the VOC's.
  • Such solution may be regenerated and the VOC's recovered therefrom as a concentrated liquid.
  • Such regeneration may be effected in any convenient manner, usually by employing a higher temperature than the absorbing step to drive the VOC's out of the absorbing medium.
  • a regeneration temperature close to the boiling point of the VOC in question is particularly convenient.
  • a combination of gas sparging and steam heating may be utilized to effect a highly efficient stripping of the VOC's, which then may be recovered by condensation as liquids for re-use or for sale. This removal and recovery procedure, therefore, enables low concentrations of VOC's contained in the gas stream to be concentrated and recovered in liquid form.
  • the sorbent or combination of sorbents used as the scrubbing medium recovered from the stripper is cooled and recycled to the absorber via the spray nozzles.
  • the overall simplicity of the process results in a decrease in capital and operating costs while retaining high VOC removal efficiencies.
  • the regenerative process of the present invention is broadly applicable to a wide range of VOC's using suitable organic sorbents.
  • the innovation of the present invention resides with its ability to control VOC's from effluent gases with a sorption process from which no waste is produced. VOC's are removed from the gas stream by a suitable solvent, which then is regenerated and recycled within a closed loop, while the VOC's are provided in a more concentrated liquid form.
  • the cyclic procedure for removal and recovery of VOC's described herein possesses several advantages over known prior art for VOC removal or disposal. With respect to the prior art incineration process, the procedure of the invention has the advantages of:

  • the process of the present invention is applicable to the removal and recovery of a variety of classes of volatile organic compounds, with the sorbent being chosen to correspond to the VOC present in the gas stream.
  • classes of volatile organic compounds include condensible and non-condensible, odorous and non-odorous VOC's and different boiling point VOC's.
  • Gas streams treated in accordance with the invention may contain a number of different VOC's in which a mixture of sorbents may be used, if required, as the sorbent material.
  • the sorbents employed in the present invention are medium to high boiling stable organic compounds or mixtures of such compounds.
  • the selective absorbent materials have very low vapour pressures, even at the temperatures that may be employed in the stripping step, for example, in the region of about 100 to 150 ⁇ C.
  • water soluble VOC's such as alcohols
  • Other suitable sorbent materials may be used for other VOC materials.
  • Such suitable sorbent materials are usually regenerable or recoverable simply by applying heat to remove the absorbed VOC's.
  • the sorbent materials are usually used as a spraying medium to generate finely atomized spray droplets by a unique two-phase, atomizing spray nozzle design that has precise gas-liquid mixture control.
  • Such nozzle allows for the flexibility required to control size and number of droplets necessary for efficient removal of solute gases such as VOC's.
  • the two-phase spray nozzle designs are described in U.S. Patent No. 4,893,752 and in published International Patent Application No. WO92/04127, assigned to the assignee hereof and the disclosure of which is incorporated herein by reference.

  • a gas stream 10 containing VOC's may first be passed through a prescrubber 12 to remove particulate materials 14 from the gas stream while cooling the gas stream to its adiabatic dewpoint temperature and then is passed through an absorber 16 in which the gas stream is contacted with very fine droplet sprays of a suitable absorbing solvent for the VOC's, to remove the VOC's from the gas stream and provide a clean gas stream 18 which is sent to a discharge stack.
  • One or more sprays may be formed in the absorber 16 by employing dual-fluid sprays in which very fine liquid droplet sprays of the solvent are formed by an atomizing gas countercurrent or cocurrent to the flow of the gas stream through the absorber 16.
  • the fine liquid droplets which may have a droplet size in the range of about 5 to about 200 microns, preferably about 30 to about 200 microns, provide a surface area for absorption up to about 100 times, usually about 30 to 50 times, that of a conventional packed tower.
  • Such fine liquid droplets may be provided by employing an atomizing gas, such as air, at a pressure of about 10 to about 90 psig.
  • the absorber 16 in effect, is an open-ended duct in which one or more dual-fluid spray nozzles produce a spray pattern which is designed to completely fill the duct while minimizing wall effects.
  • duct velocities of up to about 40 to 50 fps can be employed with a very low pressure drop through the duct, which compares to a maximum of about 10 fps gas velocities for a packed bed contactor conventionally used to remove VOC's.
  • the gas stream flowing through the absorber 16 contacts fine liquid sprays, which causes rapid mass transfer of fine VOC's contained in the flowing gas stream to the liquid droplets to be absorbed therein. thereby providing efficient removal of the VOC's from the flowing gas stream.
  • the gas stream leaving the absorber 16 passes through a mist eliminator to coalesce and remove droplets of liquid sorbent from the gas stream before the gas stream passes to the stack 18.
  • the loaded sorbent 20 is passed to a stripper or VOC desorber 22 for recovery of VOC's and regeneration of sorbent.
  • the loaded sorbent first passes through a heat exchanger 24 wherein it is heated by hot stripped sorbent 26 from the VOC desorber 22.
  • the loaded sorbent is contacted with a heated stripping gas stream 30 in such a manner that the VOC's are removed from the solvent into the gaseous phase.
  • stripping may be effected by any convenient gas-liquid contact device, such as a packed column.
  • the stripped solvent 26 exiting the VOC desorber 22 is recycled through the heat exchanger 24 and a cooler 32 to the absorber 16 for reuse in contacting the VOC- containing gas stream.
  • the VOC-containing stripping gas stream 34 is passed through a cooler 36 to a condenser 38, wherein the VOC's are condensed from the stripping gas stream as a liquid product 40, with the clean gas stream 42 being vented to the stack.

Abstract

L'invention concerne un procédé régénératif permettant de réduire la proportion de composés organiques volatils (COV) provenant de différentes sources de gaz d'effluents contenant ces COV. Ce procédé consiste à mettre en contact un flux de gaz contenant ces COV avec une fine pulvérisation d'un solvant approprié, dans laquelle les COV sont absorbés de façon sélective, puis à procéder à une opération de récupération consistant à régénérer le solvant organique pour qu'il soit recyclé lors de l'étape d'absorption, les COV étant récupérés sous forme liquide. Le procédé permet d'extraire efficacement les COV de flux de gaz sans entraîner la production de sous-produits ni de déchets.
