Description

A METHOD AND APPARATUS FOR CO-GENERATING POWER AND HYDROCARBONS FROM COAL DERIVED SYNTHESIS GAS USING PRESSURE SWING ABSORPTION The present invention relates to a method and apparatus for co-generating power and hydrocarbons from a gasification process wherein synthesis gas (carbon monoxide and hydrogen) is obtained by partial oxidation of a finely divided solid carbon-containing fuel and an oxygen-containing gas.
The oxygen-containing gas used in the partial oxidation may be pure oxygen, mixtures of oxygen and steam, air or mixtures of pure oxygen, air and steam.
In view of the depletion of oil reserves, the production of synthesis gas, which is a feedstock for many chemicals, is a subject of growing interest.
The partial oxidation of finely divided solid carbon-containing fuels can take place according to various established processes.
Finely divided solid carbon-containing fuels are applied in processes for the preparation of synthesis gas by the partial combustion of a finely divided solid carbon-containing fuel with an oxygen-containing gas in a reactor wherein liquid slag formed during the partial combustion process is removed through an outlet in the bottom of the reactor and passed by gravity through a slag discharge means into a water bath or slag quenching vessel where it is solidified by quenching.
The partial combustion of finely divided solid carbon-containing fuel with substantially pure oxygen as oxygen-containing gas yields synthesis gas mainly consisting of carbon monoxide and hydrogen. When the oxygen-containing gas is air or oxygen-enriched air, the synthesis gas formed of course also contains a substantial quantity of nitrogen. By finely divided solid carbon-containing fuel is generally meant coal or another solid fuel, such as brown coal, peat, wood, coke, soot, etc., but mixtures of liquid or gas and particulate solid fuels, are also possible.
Advantageously, a moderator is also introduced into the reactor. The object of the moderator is to exercise a moderating effect on the temperature on the reactor. This is ensured by endothermic reaction between the moderator and the reactants and/or products of the synthesis gas preparation. Suitable moderators are steam and carbon dioxide.
The gasification is advantageously carried out at a temperature in the range from 1200 to 1700 "C and at a pressure in the range from 1 to 200 bar.
The reactor in which the preparation of synthesis gas takes place may have any suitable shape.
The supply of finely divided solid carbon-containing fuel and oxygen-containing gas to the reactor can take place in any manner suitable for the purpose and will not be described in detail.
Liquid slag formed in the partial combustion reaction drops down and is drained through the outlet located in the reactor bottom.
In partial oxidation processes of finely divided solid carbon-containing fuels, such as for example coal gasification, the fuel is fed from a supply device to a gasifier by means of a suitable carrier fluid.
It has already been proposed to convert carbonaceous materials into both gaseous and liquid fuels which can be effectively utilized so as to generate variable amounts of electric power for both industrial and utility needs.
For example, methanol can be applied as peak shaving fuel in combined cycle power generation, but this has many disadvantages (CO-shift, deep sulphur and C02 removal, waste heat generated at 100 C) .
Further, it has already been proposed to apply CO as a peak shaving fuel by capturing, storing and releasing the CO by forming and dissociating a suitable organic molecule i.e. an alkyl formate.
Such a method, however, requires further chemical processes for the synthesis gas from the gasifier which is not desirable.
However, the known methods are not suitable for an advantageous co-generation of electricity and hydrocarbons. As the synthesis of hydrocarbons from coal synthesis gas requires additional hydrogen, a hydrogen manufacturing unit has to be integrated, which is economically not attractive.
Therefore, it is an object of the invention to provide a method and apparatus for co-generation of power and hydrocarbons from coal derived syngas, wherein an additional hydrogen manufacturing unit is not required and a wide range of flexibility in power production is provided whilst offering substantial economic and efficiency advantages.
The invention therefore provides a process for the co-generation of power and hydrocarbons from coal derived synthesis gas in combined cycle power generation, comprising the steps of: a) partially combusting a finely divided solid carbon-containing fuel and an oxygen-containing gas into a synthesis gas possessing an H2/CO ratio ranging from 0.25 to 0.70; b) treating the said synthesis gas to remove particulates, HCN and H2S; c) supplying at least part of the produced synthesis gas to a pressure swing adsorption unit wherein the greater part of the CO is adsorbed and a hydrogen rich stream is produced having an H2/CO ratio ranging from 3 to 15; d) recombining the hydrogen rich stream with part of the synthesis gas from the partial combustion process and using it as feed having an H2/CO ratio ranging from 1 to 3 for a hydrocarbon synthesis unit; e) desorbing the adsorbed CO to produce a CO rich stream having an H2/CO ratio ranging from 0.05 to 0.25 and feeding it to a power generation unit.
The invention further provides an apparatus for the co-generation of power and hydrocarbons from coal derived synthesis gas in combined cycle power generation, comprising: a) means for partially combusting a finely divided solid carbon-containing fuel and an oxygen-containing gas into a synthesis gas possessing an H2/CO ratio ranging from 0.25 to 0.70; b) means for treating the said synthesis gas to remove particulates, HCN and H2S; c) means for supplying at least part of the produced synthesis gas to a pressure swing adsorption unit wherein the greater part of the CO is absorbed; d) means for recombining the hydrogen rich stream with part of the synthesis gas from the partial combustion process and means for using it as feed having an H2/CO ratio ranging from to 3 for a hydrocarbon synthesis unit; and e) means for desorbing the adsorbed CO to produce a CO rich stream having an H2/CO ratio ranging from 0.05 to 0.25 and means for feeding it to a power generation unit.
In this manner hydrocarbons can be co-produced together with electricity without an additional hydrogen manufacturing unit for the hydrocarbon synthesis being required.
The invention will now be described by way of example in more detail by reference to the accompanying drawing in which the figure represents a block scheme of the invention.
According to the present invention a gasifier carbon feedstock such as coal, lignite, petroleum residue and the like is gasified under appropriate conditions using a gasifying agent essentially consisting of oxygen, possibly in combination with steam.
The synthesis gas will contain mostly carbon monoxide (CO) and hydrogen (H2) along with smaller concentrations of carbon dioxide, methane, hydrogen sulphide, argon and other inerts. The H2/CO ratio will range from 0.25 to 0.70.
The invention is based upon the following idea.
Power generation needs combustible gas. Presence of hydrogen is not essential. Carbon monoxide is more suitable because of its higher heating value per mole compared to hydrogen. Hydrocarbon synthesis needs a synthesis gas with a hydrogen to carbon monoxide ratio of about two to perform the hydrocarbon synthesis to produce valuable hydrocarbons.
If a pressure swing absorption (PSA) unit is applied as a connecting link between the gasifier and the hydrocarbon synthesis, the PSA unit splitting the synthesis gas from the partial combustion unit into a CO-rich stream and an H2-rich stream acts as a kind of selector: the CO rich stream is sent to power generation whereas the H2 rich stream is sent to where the hydrogen is essential, i.e. to the hydrocarbon synthesis. The principles of operation of pressure swing adsorption and hydrocarbon synthesis are known as such and will not be described in detail. The main application would be with a big power station. The hydrogen available in the synthesis gas from coal would be used for high added value hydrocarbons. The power generating ability of the remaining gas is hardly affected or even slightly increased.
This configuration is more efficient and less expensive compared to a configuration which, for example, uses conventional CO-shift technology as a connecting link.
Referring to the figure, in the simplified scheme shown, the configuration of the invention consists of: a) a coal gasification unit 1 producing synthesis gas which is lean in hydrogen; b) a pressure swing adsorption unit 2 (PSA) in which most of the carbon monoxide of the coal synthesis gas is adsorbed and a hydrogen rich stream is produced. This hydrogen rich stream is combined via a line 3 with part of the coal synthesis gas to form a heavy paraffin synthesis (HPS) gas with the desired H2/CO ratio. The carbon monoxide is desorbed and fed to a gas-turbine 4 for power generation; and c) a synthesis unit 5 in which paraffinic hydrocarbons are synthesized, isomerized and fractionated according to the requirements.
Coal is supplied through a line A and gasified in the coal gasifier 1 with a pressurized stream of for example 95% molar purity oxygen, supplied through a line B for example from a cryogenic air separation unit (not shown). The coal feed rate is for example approximately 4000 t/d and the gasification pressure for example 25 bara at a temperature appropriate for the coal to give a high thermal efficiency.
The synthesis gas is passed through an appropriate process (not shown) to remove a high proportion of the solids present. This can be a dry process involving the use of one or more cyclone filters or other means. Thereafter the net gas is stripped off its acid gas components, most notably hydrogen sulphide, in an acid gas removal step (not shown), whilst at the same time removing the remaining solids and some of the carbon dioxide and water formed in the process. This is carried out in a series of wash columns, absorbers and flashes, making use in part of a physical or chemical absorbent such as Sulfinol or Selexol. The offgas stream is directed to a sulphur recovery process (not shown) where the sulphur is collected.
The cleaned gas, which has essentially a 0.25 to 0.70 ratio of H2 to CO is at some 40 deg. C and 20 bara pressure.
Example 4000 t/d coal were gasified with oxygen resulting in about 3 8x106 Nm3/d synthesis gas with a hydrogen to carbon monoxide ratio of about 0.25-0.70. The synthesis gas is treated to remove particulates, HCN and H2S.
Advantageously, 20-30% of the coal synthesis gas was treated in a CO-shift and a CO2 removal unit 6 to produce about 1z10 Nm3 towngas 6a which fulfils to the CO and heating value specifications. The remaining part was fed to the PSA unit 2.
60-70% of the synthesis gas produced in the coal gasification unit was splitted in the PSA unit 2 into two streams: - a CO rich stream (H2/CO about 0.14-0.06) used for power generation 4, 4a and - an H2 rich stream (H2/CO about 10.5-4.5) which was combined with the remaining 15-58 of the coal synthesis gas to form the heavy paraffins synthesis (HPS) gas with an H2/CO ratio of 2.1.
A small part of the raw hydrogen could be further purified by pressure swing adsorption (PSA) for use in the hydro-finishing steps of the products (see below).
The synthesis gas was first converted by heavy paraffin synthesis (HPS) into a range of linear hydrocarbons 5a.
Subsequently, linear paraffins in the range C5 to C17 were separated from the total hydrocarbon stream and after hydrotreating to remove olefins and oxygenates used for paraffinic solvents and detergent feedstocks.
The remaining stream of linear hydrocarbons is converted in a heavy paraffins conversion (HPC) unit into naphtha, kerosene and gasoil.
The overall thermal efficiency of this scheme results to about 48-50%. Besides the advantage of lower capital investment the presented concept achieves a slightly higher thermal efficiency than the corresponding complex using conventional CO-shift technology.
It will be appreciated that the step of producing towngas is optional and should not be considered an indispensable feature of the present invention.
Various modifications of the invention will become apparent to those skilled in the art from the foregoing description and accompanying drawings. Such modifications are intended to fall within the scope of the appended claims.
