How to solve the problems of hydrogen and gas carrying liquid during reforming
Thread Content
The reformed hydrogen contains some C4 and C5 components, while the gas contains liquid substances such as amines, benzene, and water; due to the high gas flow rate, there is no liquid in either of the two liquid separation tanks, and this was evident in the subsequent operations. I want to add an antifoam mesh to the tank, but the manager said it’s not in the right place. Does anyone have any suggestions?
How is the re-contact system performing?
Check if a coalescer will work, or consider using an adsorption unit.
Reply to 1# dugutianzuo5: Reducing the temperature after cooling and increasing the operating pressure can help minimize liquid carryover; installing a coalescer (i.e., an antifoam mesh) inside the tank should also be effective
It’s just about having liquid assets, so one shouldn’t invest too much, or only if there’s a potential profit to be made； What I want to ask is: can a regular liquid separation tank be equipped with an antifoam mesh?
How high is the temperature of hydrogen after freezing, and what is the amount of C5?
The simplest way is to add steam or hot water tracing to the hydrogen line and the gas line.
By strengthening cooling on one hand and applying pressure to accelerate setting on the other, gas cylinders can be recycled domestically
7th floor? No, I still want it to solidify; there’s a PSA unit behind it. It’s around 40 degrees Celsius; Haiyou on the sixth floor
Is reformed hydrogen used as a raw material for hydrogenation? Part of the hydrogen used for hydrogenation in our process comes from reformed hydrogen; having liquid present is not a problem, but what’s concerning is the potential damage to equipment such as compressors downstream. I installed a liquid recovery unit in front of the press; the reformed gasoline produced is sent back to the reprocessing unit via the oil return line. The presence of liquid will not cause any damage to the reformed gasoline.
Strengthening the drainage of the inter-stage liquid separation tanks in the hydrogenation compressors can help avoid this issue
