Total low-temperature conversion of carbon monoxide

Thread Content

Let’s discuss what the reasons are for the excessively high temperatures in beds 1, 2, and 3 during the complete low-temperature conversion of carbon monoxide Are there any other reasons for the high carbon monoxide level in the outlet section?

The increased carbon monoxide content in the outlet section may be due to the following reasons: 1. A sudden increase or decrease in operating temperature, with large and frequent temperature fluctuations; 2 The space velocity is too high, resulting in overproduction ; 3 Due to fluctuations in steam pressure and system pressure, too little steam is added ; 4 Catalyst poisoning, deactivation, aging, caking, crushing and pulverization, gas bias flow ; 5 water is introduced into the catalyst layer, causing a significant drop in bed temperature ; The equipment No. 6 malfunctions; the common fault is corrosion and perforation of the tubes in the heat exchanger, allowing semi-water gas to leak into the shift gas ; If the level of the water seal between the saturated tower and the hot water tower is too low, or if the pressure difference between them is too large, semi-water gas will flow from the saturated tower through the water seal and into the hot water tower ; 7 Improper operation. If the amount is increased too rapidly and excessively, without timely adjustment of the steam supply volume ; The steam supply volume was not adjusted in a timely manner when system pressure and steam pressure fluctuated ; When the catalyst bed temperature drops excessively, significantly reducing the steam volume leads to an excessively low vapor-to-solid ratio in the bed.
