Does a high CO content after the transformation have an impact on the subsequent low-temperature methanol washing?
Thread Content
After the transformation, the CO content is about 1.5% higher – will this have an impact on the subsequent low-temperature methanol washing?
Does the transformed value indicate the gas composition of the transformation furnace? What are the components of the transformed gas in the transformation section?
Yes, it is the gas composition at the outlet of the converter. Ignore the other gases; the main question is: what impact does CO have on low-temperature methanol washing? I’ve learned something
A high CO level at the exit of the shift process means that the CO2 content in the shift gas is correspondingly low, resulting in a relatively lower carbon removal load for low-temperature methanol washing.
It doesn’t have much impact… It affects the synthesis section……
It should not have a significant impact on low-temperature methanol washing! The designed circulation rate should take CO2 fluctuations into account, so it should be able to meet the process requirements!
I agree with the view from the fourth floor: low-temperature methanol washing is primarily used to remove acidic gases, and it has an impact on the subsequent synthesis processes. It certainly won’t work if ammonia synthesis is involved; if methanol synthesis is the goal, then a higher temperature is acceptable, but it still can’t be too high – the ratio of CO to H2 needs to be maintained, with generally more H2 present. There might be mistakes in my answers; I’m here to learn as well
