Definitions
- the present invention relates to a gasno, an idrate manufacturing apparatus, and a dehydrating apparatus.
- Gas hydrate is a solid hydrate that has a structure in which gas is taken into a cage made of water molecules.
- gas hydrate is stable at a temperature of several tens of degrees centigrade under atmospheric pressure.
- Research is underway to use it as a means of transporting and storing natural gas instead of natural gas (LNG).
- LNG natural gas
- the natural gas collected from the gas field is removed from the acidic gas such as carbon dioxide (CO 2) and hydrogen sulfide (HS) in the acidic gas removal process, and is stored in the gas storage section.
- the acidic gas such as carbon dioxide (CO 2) and hydrogen sulfide (HS)
- gas hydrate is obtained by hydration reaction with water in the production step.
- This gas and idrate is in the form of a slurry in which water is mixed, and in the dehydration process following the generation process, the mixed unreacted water is removed, and after undergoing a regeneration process, a cooling process, and a decompression process, containers, etc. And stored in a storage device adjusted to a predetermined temperature and pressure.
- the gas hydrate is in the form of a slurry containing a large amount of water in the production process, so if it is stored or transported as it is, an extra cost is required for the amount of water.
- a natural gas hydrate generation method for forcibly dehydrating slurry-like gas and idrate using a screw press type dehydrator has been proposed (for example, Japanese Laid-Open Patent Publication No. 2003-105362).
- this screw press type dehydrator has a double structure consisting of a mesh-carrying inner wall and a cylindrical body that forms an outer shell on the outer side of the inner wall, and is installed in the inner wall. Because the screw-shaft forcibly advances the slurry-like natural gas hydrate to remove the processed mesh force water on the inner wall, much of the natural gas hydrate is dehydrated (concentrated). Passes through mesh holes in the inner wall together with water, reducing the recovery rate of natural gas hydrate. For rotating the screw shaft with high torque Power cost is required. Furthermore, because the high torque is generated with the inside being at high pressure, the entire facility is overloaded, and the screw shaft must be sealed from high pressure to atmospheric pressure.
- the present inventors have proposed a gravity dehydration method that uses gravity rather than the conventional forced dehydration.
- the resistance of the dehydration zone above the drainage section made of wire mesh provided in the dehydration tower increases, the discharge capacity of the slurry pump that transports the gas hydrate slurry to the gravity dehydration tower increases, or the gravity dehydration tower is blocked by the gas hydrate.
- the liquid level (water level) of the draining part rises, causing problems such as poor dehydration, and stable operation may not be possible while maintaining a constant dehydration rate.

- the gap between the outer cylinder container and the inner cylinder container is filled with gas, it is difficult to efficiently cool from the outside where it is difficult to remove the heat generated by the gas hydrate in the inner cylinder container. is there.
- the generated gas hydrate has a property of high adhesion depending on the degree of moisture content, etc., there is a problem that the gas hydrate cannot be smoothly conveyed because it adheres to the wall surface of the container.
- FIG. 5 of the publication there has been proposed an apparatus for transporting the generated gas hydrate by squeezing the upper portion of the gas hydrate generating container to provide a vertical screw conveyor and a horizontal screw conveyor.

- a cooling jacket 56i is attached to the entire circumference of the container 54i, an inlet 59i for taking in the cooling medium 58i is formed in the lower part, and an outlet 61i for discharging the cooling medium 58i is formed in the upper part.
- a plurality of gas supply pipes 65i for taking natural gas 63i as a raw material gas into the container 54i are disposed on the outer periphery of the container 54i.
- the rotating shaft 42i is connected to one end of the tapered portion 55i of the rotating shaft 41i so that its axis line coincides with the rotating shaft 41i, and is driven to rotate together with the rotating shaft 41i.
- a plurality of portal stirring blades 57i are attached around the shaft so that the two legs are aligned with the axial direction of the rotating shaft 42i.
- a plurality of plate-like feed blades 7 li are attached to the inlet side and the outlet side of the hydration dehydration area 33i so as to be inclined around the axis of the rotary shaft 42i. Note that one end of the rotating shaft 41i and the other end of the rotating shaft 42i are pivotally supported by both end surfaces of the high-pressure shell 35i and the container 54i, respectively.
- the NGH slurry 43i extracted from the generator U by the slurry transfer pump 20i is introduced into the dewatering screen 37i through the supply port 45i.
- the NGH slurry 43i introduced into the dewatering screen 37i is conveyed in the axial direction through the groove space of the screw blade 39i by the rotation of the rotating shaft 41i, and gradually compressed in this process to separate moisture.
- the separated water 47i flows out from the hole 5 of the dewatering screen 37i and is discharged from the discharge port 49i.
- the NGH slurry 43i is capable of removing moisture to some extent by passing through the physical dehydration area 31i. For example, moisture adheres to the surface of the NGH particles.
- a hydration dehydration area 33i is provided after the physical dehydration area 3 li to remove water adhering to NGH by a hydration reaction. That is, the NGH introduced into the container 54i from the physical dewatering area 31i is conveyed while being stirred in the container 54i by, for example, the rotation of the stirring blade 57i, and simultaneously introduced into the container 54i from the gas supply pipe 65. It is exposed to the atmosphere of natural gas 63i. As a result, water adhering to NGH reacts with natural gas 63i in contact with it, resulting in hydration and dehydration.
- the hydration reaction generates heat
- the outer peripheral force of the container 54i is also recovered through the cooling jacket 56i, so that the inside of the container 54i is maintained in a temperature range suitable for the eternal reaction.
- the natural gas 63i supplied into the container 54i is forcibly circulated by a pump or the like, and unreacted natural gas 63i is always supplied into the container 54i. Thereby, the reaction rate of the hydration reaction in the container 54i can be maintained high.
- the physical dehydration apparatus 2 continuously hydrates and dehydrates the NGH slurry after physical dehydration, a higher dehydration rate can be obtained as compared with conventional physical dehydration. For this reason, for example, the fluidized bed can be hydrated and dehydrated without hindrance on the downstream side, and the choice of hydration and dehydration can be expanded and the concentration of NGH as the final product can be maintained high.
- the load during hydration dehydration that is, heat recovery It is economical because the load on the equipment can be reduced.
- the physical dehydration area 3li and the hydration dehydration area 33i are accommodated in one container and continuously processed, so that the apparatus configuration is simplified and the installation area is reduced. There is an effect that can be done.
- the physical dehydration apparatus 82i of the present embodiment is different from the above-described embodiment in that NGH is stirred and transported by a screw in the hydration dehydration area 33i. That is, the rotation shaft 83i of the present embodiment is connected to one end of the taper portion 55i on the axis of the rotation 41i, and includes a taper portion 85i that is reduced in diameter in the axial direction and a straight portion 87i that extends straight. It is formed by connecting in the transport direction.
- the screw blade 89i is formed in a spiral shape in the axial direction of the outer periphery of the tapered portion 85i, and is provided so as to be close to the inner peripheral surface of the container 54i. Further, the stirring blade 57i is formed on the outer periphery of the straight portion 87i.
- the different agitation means in the hydration dehydration area 33i has been described. However, if NGH is continuously agitated in an environment in which the raw material gas is supplied, this may be used. It is not limited.
- the symbol T indicates the source gas inlet
- T ′ indicates the source gas discharge
- U indicates the low concentration NGH.
