Description
Technical field
The present invention relates to the Sweet natural gas curing technology in the Sweet natural gas accumulating field.
Background technology
Solid gas technology (GTS) is that Sweet natural gas is changed into solid-state hydrate forms by gaseous state, makes it easy to transportation and is converted into gaseous natural gas again.Because it has significantly reduced Sweet natural gas accumulating expense, improved the economy and the security of Sweet natural gas accumulating, be subjected to the generally attention of industry member, be one just in the new technology of research and development.With respect to other accumulating form of Sweet natural gas, as pipe-line transportation, CNG (compressed natural gas) technology, LNG (natural gas liquids) technology, solidifying the Sweet natural gas technology has original advantage, mainly shows:
(1) preparation easily.The pressure of preparation solid gas, temperature condition relatively gentleer (gas hydrate can prepare down at 2-6MPa, 0-20 ℃), avoided high pressure (22MPa) link of very low temperature (162 ℃) Yu the compressed natural gas of natural gas liquids, realized easily technically;
(2) energy density is big.1M
3Gas hydrate (NGH) portability reach 150-170M
3(under the normal conditions) Sweet natural gas;
(3) convenient transportation.Solid gas can pass through highway, railway, water route transportation, has avoided the investment (4,000,000 yuan every kilometer) of pipe-line transportation;
(4) insulation easily.Because the thermal conductivity of solid gas is 18.7W/M ℃, and is also lower than general lagging material, thereby the solid gas storage vessel does not need special adiabatic measure;
(5) store easily.Solid gas can be in normal pressure, stably stored under the temperature condition more than-15 ℃, and is not high to the storage tank material requirements;
(6) as safe as a house.Solid gas is adsorption gas molecule and the solid chemical compound that forms in the cage compound hole that water molecules constitutes, the gas that discharges its institute's trap must be prerequisite with the thawing of ice crystal skeleton, in the time of 0 ℃, every gram water thawing latent heat is 0.335KJ in the ice, and 0-20 ℃ the time, every gram water thawing latent heat is 0.5-0.6KJ in the gas hydrate, and high more a lot of than ice, this makes the decomposition of hydrate need absorb a large amount of heat energy.In addition, because the athermic effect of hydrate itself, the rate of release of gas is slow, and also burning is slow promptly to use the open firing point combustion, has fundamentally prevented to leak the explosion hazard that causes in a large number because of Sweet natural gas;
These outstanding advantages make the solid gas technology have vast potential for future development in Sweet natural gas accumulating field.Around the industrialization of solid gas technology, people have done a large amount of research with regard to series of technical, mainly comprise: hydrate production process efficiently; Determining of unit volume hydrate gas-storing capacity; Optimize hydrate gas storage pressure, temperature condition, improve the economy of hydrate gas storage; Effective separation means of hydrate etc., and design studies efficiently the hydrate process for producing be the basis of industrial application.
Nineteen forty-four U.S. scientist A.J.L.Hutchinson has designed a kind of hydrate production storing mode, and (U.S.Patent 2,356,407), its core is that gas is mixed in container with water coolant, regulate pressure, make gas be converted to hydrate, as carrier, solid hydrate is delivered to storage tank stores with kerosene(oil)fraction.But because the fundamental research of gas hydrate was still immature at that time, this technology does not have driven angle of mechanics to consider effective air voids of speed of response and hydrate.In reaction process, owing to disturbance, gas degree of supercooling that the air-flow shortage is enough are limited, cause speed of response extremely slow, the effective air voids of hydrate that is generated simultaneously is also very low, is difficult to reach industrial application requirements.
Along with going deep into of hydrate fundamental research, Norway scientist Gudmundsson has proposed a technical process (U.S.Patent 5,536,893) of design according to large-scale NGH production in nineteen ninety, and throughput is annual 41 * 10
8M
3Operating pressure is 5.0MPa, and temperature is 10 ℃.Finally obtain containing the solidliquid mixture of hydrate 30%, by separator hydrate is carried out concentrating after the solid-liquid separation being stored in the storage tank.Though this Technology has had very big improvement, but still there are many deficiencies, mainly show: 1. under the pressure condition that flow process sets, temperature of reaction is higher, gas lacks enough cold spaces of mistake, speed of response is still limited, and the effective air voids of the hydrate that is generated is not high, and the economic performance of this technology is affected; 2. under the bigger situation of industrial scale, gas, liquid mixture are difficult to obtain enough disturbances in the reactor, and this must influence mass transfer, the heat transfer process of reaction system, and delayed response speed makes flow process production efficiency not high; 3. exist optional equipments such as refrigeration and stirring, energy consumption is higher, investment is very big; 4. (hydrate density is approximately 0.9g/cm owing to solid hydrate is close with liquid water density
3), in conventional separator, be difficult to two-phase is thoroughly separated, cause finished product to contain a large amount of additional water, increased transportation cost;
U.S. Texas A﹠amp in addition; The Sassen of M university and Macdonald have designed the method for a hydrate storage and transportation sea-bottom natural gas: collect the methane bubble of emerging in the seabed in the seabed with a kind of special container, when container is full of, under seabed low temperature, condition of high voltage, methane is easy to generate hydrate, then container is dragged to the sea, hydrate begins to melt and discharges methane and do the fuel utilization.This method has made full use of the submarine natural condition, energy efficient, but, do not have ubiquity because its application background is special.Switzerland scientist Ehrsam has proposed a kind of technical matters flow process (U.S.Patent 4,920,752) that is suitable for gas storage and peak regulation: water is made mixture of ice and water, Sweet natural gas and water in container, water generation reaction compound under 0 ℃, 3Mpa condition.Utilizing Sweet natural gas purging or belt to transmit delivers to hydrate in the storing chamber.Decompose release gas by the heat exchange of water and hydrate.This method technology is comparatively complicated, and industrial scale is limited, is difficult to realize large-scale industrial application.Cahn, Guo, the technical process (U.S.Patent 3,514,274 U.S.Patent5,473,904 U.S.Patent 3,888,434) that people such as Chersky propose also is worth reference.But these technology have special application background, do not have general adaptability, and industrial scale is limited, are difficult to satisfy the needs that extensive Sweet natural gas solidifies accumulating.
Summary of the invention
The object of the present invention is to provide a kind of continuous method for preparing solid gas, method is simple for this, with low cost, production efficiency height, solid and gas good separating effect.
The industrial requirement of solid gas has the curing flow process of efficient economy, and curing reaction speed has directly determined its production efficiency.Classical dynamics is theoretical to be shown with experiment: the multiple factors such as disturbance of speed of response and pressure, condensate depression, temperature fall time, gas-to-liquid contact area, system are relevant, reaction pressure is high more, condensate depression is big more, and the gas-to-liquid contact area is many more, the strong speed of response of system disturbance Shaoxing opera is fast more.In addition, the effective air voids of hydrate product and the economic performance of flow process are closely related, experiment shows: under the certain situation of reaction pressure, condensate depression is big more, overvoltage (so-called overvoltage, earlier the pressure of reaction system is elevated to a value that is higher than reaction pressure exactly, dropping to the reaction pressure of system after the certain hour again) degree is high more, system disturbance Shaoxing opera is strong, and effective air voids of hydrate is just high more.Therefore, Production Flow Chart efficiently must improve condensate depression under the certain condition of reaction pressure, shorten temperature fall time, strengthens the disturbance of gas-liquid system.
Technical scheme of the present invention is to be core with the jet pipe throttling, moisture high-pressure natural gas sprays from one group of custom-designed jet pipe, throttling expansion takes place, reduce gas flow temperature significantly, for the cold space of bigger mistake is won in reaction, cross cold air stream in the rotation of reactor high speed, for forming, hydrate gains time, under the reactor pressure condition, hydrate can form in 10-20 second or shorter time.The metaborate monohydrate composition granule that forms is crossed separator with air communication and is realized efficiency gas-solid.The intact low-pressure gas of unreacted returns compressor boost, realizes circulation.
A kind of continuous method for preparing solid gas may further comprise the steps successively:
(1) water enters in the Sweet natural gas of certain pressure, with gas humidification continuously equably;
(2) saturated gas enters reactor, sprays from the jet pipe of reactor, and throttling expansion takes place, and in the rotation of reactor high speed, generates solid hydrate rapidly;
(3) the intact air-flow of unreacted is brought the solid hydrate that generates into separator and is carried out solid and gas and separate, and solid phase prod is emitted from the separator lower part outlet;
(4) air-flow enters compressor from separator top upflow tube, behind the pressurization humidification, enters reactor cycles again and uses.
The raw natural gas that comes from well head or pipeline is behind pressure regulator valve, its pressure is stabilized in the reasonable range, the pressure height helps that bigger temperature drop can be arranged after the jet pipe throttling, but hypertonia, can bring some other problems again, as equipment being proposed higher requirement of withstand voltage, shipwreck to inject air-flow etc.Take all factors into consideration various factors, the design air-flow enters that the pressure range of (before being the jet pipe throttling) is 5-10MPa before the reactor.
Water enters in the air-flow, becomes steam or water smoke evenly to contact with gas fully, with gas humidification.Typical gas hydrate contain 15% Sweet natural gas and 85% water, can suitably control the adding water yield according to the mass rate of Sweet natural gas, make to be reflected under the optimum condition and carry out.
Reactor is cylindrical, be uniform-distribution with many jet pipes angled on every side with its radial direction, jet pipe can be 4～6 Rafael nozzles, angle is at the 60-90 degree, and air-flow is sharply lowered the temperature after the jet pipe throttling, for the formation of solid hydrate provides ideal low temperature, hyperbaric environment, the high speed rotating of air-flow has prolonged the time that reactant stops in reactor, for the hydrate nucleus growth creates conditions, just can form a large amount of hydrates in a short period of time.The solid hydrate that forms, purged by high velocity air, can not be set on the jet pipe, but in reactor with the air-flow high speed rotating, fierce each other collision forms subparticle, after particle diameter acquires a certain degree, centrifugal force is not enough to it is got rid of to wall, so the air-flow formation overflow intact with unreacted enters separator by connection line.Air-flow can also continue to form hydrate in connection line and separator.
Because it is larger that solid and gas of the present invention separates, whirlwind separator can satisfy technical requirements well.After air-flow entered cyclonic separator, the centrifugal force of high speed rotating got rid of solid aquation composition granule to barrel, emits from outlet, and the hydrate solids particle has obtained high efficiency separation.
Air-flow after solid and gas separates can be introduced into a sack cleaner from separator top upflow tube, further isolates fine solid hydrate, and this sack cleaner is double-deck, and outer field steel cylinder links to each other with compressor inlet, and atmospheric isolation.Gas by behind the cloth bag filtration enters compressor, mixes with raw natural gas again, behind pressurization, humidification, enters reactor cycles and uses.
The powdery solid hydrate that whirlwind separator and sack cleaner are collected is easy to be processed to fine and close blocks of solid, further improves energy density and air voids, saves a large amount of freight charges simultaneously.
Because do not have tangible liquid water to occur in the production process of the present invention, reaction is to carry out continuously in gas phase, therefore claims that this method is a vapor phase process.With respect to traditional gas, liquid, solid trichotomy, vapor phase process has remarkable advantages:
1.. do not have refrigeration and whipping device, can utilize pipeline or well head pressure energy fully, reduced energy consumption and plant investment significantly;
2.. contain water flow after the jet pipe throttling, because Joule-Thomson effect, cooling extent is very big, has obtained the cold space of bigger mistake, has increased the impellent of hydrate forward reaction, has suppressed the negative sense reaction, thereby has accelerated speed of response.；
3.. air-flow is after the jet pipe ejection, with supersonic speed at reactor inner disc high speed rotating, purge nozzle has prevented effectively that not only nozzle ice is stifled tempestuously, and has strengthened the disturbance of system, strengthened the gas-to-liquid contact area, accelerate the transmission of heat by convection degree of system, promptly strengthened mass transfer, the heat transfer degree of reaction, when the moisture in the Sweet natural gas forms ice crystal at low temperatures, absorb Sweet natural gas and formed hydrate, improved effective air voids of finished product;
4.. gas solid separation is fast and convenient, has realized that hydrate separates efficiently, makes reaction be able to dynamic, successive, carry out efficiently.
5.. after the low-pressure gas pressurization that compressor finishes unreacted, the humidification, send reactor again back to and continue reaction, form material and circulate, thereby can make full use of raw natural gas.
