If must from the less relatively flying dust of quantity, isolate a large amount of synthetic gas, before using method of the present invention, most of synthetic gas can adopt a cyclonic separator, and more than one strainer or their associated plant are in the above described manner by separating in the flying dust.If its advantage is that most of synthetic gas can break away from mixed inert gas like this.In addition, required amount of inert gas is less, and the pre-separation step can be carried out under the pressure of 5~40bar.
Say that in principle method of the present invention can be used for the separator of any gas and dust particle in the prior art.
Be suitable for the device of implementing the inventive method to comprise a separator, this separator is equipped with a synthetic gas/fly ash mixture feeding line,, an inert gas feed pipeline,, the vent line of a rare gas element/syngas mixture vent line and a flying dust, these pipelines have tightness system, meanwhile, in order to prevent and limit the inflow of flying dust, inert gas feed pipeline and rare gas element/syngas mixture vent line is equipped with corresponding device thereof.Best enforcement in the part of the present invention, the feeding line of synthetic gas/fly ash mixture and the vent line of synthetic gas/noble gas mixtures are connected on the separator higher position, and other two pipelines and separator bonding station are lower.In another optimum implementation of the present invention, the vent line that the flying dust vent line is connected separator bottom rare gas element/synthetic gas mixed gas then is connected the separator top.Other two pipelines engage according to above-mentioned order, and particular location must depend on the size and the shape of separator, and needed processing units.
As mentioned above, method of the present invention can be used for continuous, semicontinuous and the discontinuity operation.
Adopt the discontinuity processing treatment, flying dust and synthetic gas are imported in the separator by feeding line, close other pipeline this moment, then, and then close the feeding line of flying dust and synthetic gas, open the inert gas feed pipeline, thereby rare gas element is imported separator the separator internal pressure is raise (reaching 30bar), and then close the inert gas feed pipe.(if necessary) opens rare gas element and synthetic gas vent pipe afterwards through after a while, because the separator internal pressure is higher, synthetic gas/noble gas mixtures can be discharged reactor.At last, close the vent pipe of synthetic gas/noble gas mixtures successively, open the flying dust escape route and let ash side by side fly away.If necessary, can discharge flying dust, and this carrier gas is preferably identical with rare gas element, as N by carrier gas
2Or CO
2After closing the fly ash emission pipeline and opening flying dust/syngas mixture charging, reusable method of the present invention is separated new a collection of flying dust/syngas mixture.Synthetic gas in the flying dust might not separate fully, flying dust and remaining synthetic gas must be handled one or many through aforesaid method more like this.This can be undertaken by two kinds of approach.The first, before leaving separator, flying dust and remaining synthetic gas are repeated to contact with rare gas element in the same separator.The second, after leaving separator, with flying dust and remaining synthetic gas be conveyed into one (or a plurality of) again separator repeat said process.Usually it is separable fully to repeat said process 10 powers; If low repetition to 3~6 time also may obtain good separating resulting.
Adopt semicontinuous processing treatment, synthetic gas/fly ash mixture can be imported separator, close other pipeline simultaneously.After closing synthetic gas/fly ash mixture feeding pipe, open the vent pipe of inert gas feed pipe and rare gas element and synthetic gas, rare gas element is constantly by flying dust, and it is separated fully to discharge the synthetic gas of rare gas element/syngas mixture in flying dust continuously.After the pipeline of opening is closed, discharge flying dust by discharge pipe, discharge by above-mentioned carrier gas if possible.
As mentioned above, if it is favourable that method of the present invention is used for operate continuously, the feeding pipe by suiting with rare gas element and flying dust/syngas mixture imports separator simultaneously continuously, and with flying dust, rare gas element/syngas mixture is discharged continuously by escape route.Rare gas element can change in the scope of a broad by the speed of separator, and especially it depends on that flying dust and synthetic gas import the speed of separator, depend on the quantity of isolated synthetic gas from flying dust and the size that depends on separator.
Different with the discontinuity processing and treating method, the constant pressure of semicontinuity and continuity operation.
As mentioned above, when synthetic gas/fly ash mixture contacted with rare gas element, flying dust can be used as fixed, and mobile or fluidizing bed contacts with rare gas element.Used a kind of fluidized-bed layer best enforcement of the present invention in the part, this bed has constituted a separator, be equipped with being used to that prior art is familiar with to make dust granule fluidizing device on the separator, and used the rare gas element that can make the flying dust fluidisation and keep its fluidized state.
As mentioned above, the flying dust/syngas mixture that mainly contains synthetic gas with must be before rare gas element contacts through pre-separation, it is different that the mixture before and after the pre-separation is formed.In above-mentioned preprocessing process, isolate most of synthetic gas, in order to import through the synthetic gas/fly ash mixture of pre-separation in the separator, the feeding pipe of the synthetic gas/fly ash mixture that connects with separator must be connected on the pre-separate device, pre-separate device is a cyclonic separator, more than one strainer or their associated plant.
The pre-separation process is carried out under the pressure of 5~40bar.Because synthetic gas/fly ash mixture carries out with contacting under low pressure of rare gas element, so must reduce pressure before this.For this reason, according to the present invention, can dispose the reliever that prior art is familiar with in separator, this device is advisable to be arranged between preliminary separation stage and the separator.Known operable dropping equipment such as separator, or a kind of length-may be the little pipe of crooked-internal diameter.Used separator best enforcement of the present invention in the part.After the step-down,, synthetic gas/fly ash mixture can be imported in the separator by carrier gas by synthetic gas/fly ash mixture feeding pipe.
In addition, container of storing flying dust/syngas mixture of the suitable configuration of this device, said vesse equipment is at dropping equipment and cyclonic separator, and between strainer or its machinery, these container two ends are connected with above-mentioned two portions.As mentioned above, method and apparatus of the present invention is particularly useful for separating the flying dust/syngas mixture that is obtained by coal gasification method.
