Description

Cryogenic liquefaction system with improved hydrogen separation membrane insertion for STAR propane dehydrogenation
Technical Field
The invention relates to a cryogenic liquefaction system with improved hydrogen separation membrane embedded aiming at a STAR propane dehydrogenation process, and belongs to the field of petrochemical industry. According to the process, a hydrogen membrane separation unit is embedded between a shallow cooling unit and a cryogenic unit, most hydrogen in reaction products is removed through selective permeation of a membrane, propane and propylene are subjected to non-phase-change concentration, the gas flow is greatly reduced, then pressurization and cryogenic liquefaction are further performed, and the compression energy consumption in the cryogenic liquefaction process is reduced while high-concentration hydrogen is obtained.
Background
Propylene is a basic raw material of three major synthetic materials, such as plastics, synthetic rubber and synthetic fibers. In addition, propylene is widely used for the production of acrylonitrile, isopropyl alcohol, acetone, propylene oxide, and the like. In 2018, the global propylene capacity exceeds 1.4 million tons, and the consumption amount exceeds 1 million tons. In the future 5-10 years, the annual average growth rate of the world propylene capacity and consumption is about 4-5%. The main production routes of propylene can be divided into three types, i.e., oil head (steam cracking, catalytic cracking), coal head (methanol to olefins), and gas head (propane dehydrogenation), according to the type of the raw material. In recent years, with the large-scale exploitation of shale gas resources on a global scale, the yield of propane is continuously increased, the price of the propane is reduced in a water-jumping manner, and the development and industrial application of the propane dehydrogenation process are greatly promoted. In 2018, the total yield of olefin production by propane dehydrogenation exceeds 1200 ten thousand tons, and the method is the most important new added source of propylene.
The technologies for producing propylene by propane dehydrogenation mainly include Oleflex process from UOP company, Catofin process from Lummus company, STAR process from wood company, and PDH process from lind company. Compared to other process technologies, the STAR process converts propane to propylene in two steps, steam reforming dehydrogenation and partial oxidative dehydrogenation, at higher reaction pressures (0.5MPaG), with relatively small reactor volumes and higher per pass conversions. Especially, in the partial oxidative dehydrogenation process, the coupling of hydrogen partial combustion and dehydrogenation reaction is adopted, so that the reaction process can be promoted, the heat required by the reaction can be provided, and the method has more remarkable advantages.
Besides the target product propylene, a large amount of hydrogen and methane are also produced in the propane dehydrogenation process. Due to the combustion consumption of hydrogen in the partial oxidative dehydrogenation process, the STAR process produces far less non-condensable components than other propane dehydrogenation processes. Even so, the STAR reaction product still contains a significant amount of non-condensable components. According to a typical 35 million ton STAR plant of a certain enterprise, the total content of non-condensable components (hydrogen, methane, oxygen, nitrogen, carbon monoxide) of the reaction product after removal of moisture and carbon dioxide is as high as 22.18 mol%. Subject to the existence of a large amount of non-condensable components, the traditional STAR process adopts a cryogenic liquefaction system, needs to be carried out under the conditions of high pressure and low temperature of 3.20MPaG and-78 ℃, and mainly has the following defects: 1) all gaseous reaction products need to be pressurized to 3.20MPaG from about 0.50 MPaG, and the compression energy consumption is very large; 2) the non-condensable components such as methane, nitrogen and the like coexist with hydrogen in the deep cooling process, the concentration of the byproduct crude hydrogen is lower than 90mol%, and the byproduct crude hydrogen cannot be directly used in typical hydrogen consumption processes in refining enterprises such as hydrocracking, hydrofining and the like, and is used as fuel to cause great waste. Taking a typical 35 ten thousand tons STAR propane dehydrogenation process as an example, the energy consumption for compressing dehydrogenation reaction products is up to 6400 kW; the by-product hydrogen is purified to above 99%, and assuming a recovery of 80%, about 1.15 million standard parts of hydrogen can be supplied to the refinery hydrotreater each year.
Figure DEST_PATH_IMAGE001
Hydrogen is the most predominant non-condensable component, based on the composition of a typical STAR propane dehydrogenation product, see table 1. A more efficient hydrogen separation technology is introduced, the high-pressure low-temperature liquefaction working condition is hopefully improved greatly by being coupled with the traditional liquefaction process, the compression power consumption is reduced by staged pressurization/condensation, and meanwhile, the high-concentration hydrogen is byproduct, and the product value is increased. Pressure swing adsorption and membrane separation are two separation technologies independent of the phase equilibrium relationship of separation objects, and are both widely used for hydrogen separation and purification. Compared with pressure swing adsorption, hydrogen membrane separation can concentrate condensation objects such as carbon three (propane and propylene) on the high-pressure retentate side, is beneficial to subsequent pressure rise and condensation liquefaction, and is more suitable for being combined with the STAR propane dehydrogenation process. In conclusion, the invention embeds the hydrogen membrane separation unit after the shallow cooling unit in the STAR propane dehydrogenation process, removes most hydrogen in reaction products through selective permeation, and then further pressurizes and cryogenically liquefies, thereby reducing the compression energy consumption in the cryogenically liquefying process while obtaining high-concentration hydrogen.
