The absorption CO gas separation process is based on Tenneco's
Using COSORB method and absorption liquid developed by our company
There is the HISORB method, but the basic process structure is almost the same except for the absorption liquid. An overview of this process is shown in Figure 1. In the figure, a raw material gas containing CO is introduced from the bottom of an absorption tower 1, comes into countercurrent contact with the circulating absorption liquid flowing down the tower, and only the CO in the raw material gas is selectively absorbed. The rich solvent that has absorbed CO is taken out from the bottom of the absorption tower 1, exchanges heat with the regenerated high-temperature lean solvent in the heat exchanger 3, and then is sent to the top of the regeneration tower 2, where it is passed through the reboiler 4. It is heated by the supplied heat and releases CO. The released CO gas is
After the solvent vapor is condensed in the condenser 5, the remaining uncondensed solvent is completely recovered in the adsorption tower 6 and then discharged as product CO gas. On the other hand, the regenerated solvent (lean solvent) is taken out from the bottom of the regeneration tower 2, passes through the heat exchanger 3, is cooled to a predetermined temperature in the cooler 10, and is then transferred to the absorption tower 2.
It is circulated to the top of the tower. The off-gas taken out from the top of the absorption tower 1 condenses and recovers the solvent in the condenser 13, and is finally introduced into the adsorption tower 7.
Here, the solvent is completely adsorbed and recovered. The solvent adsorbed in the adsorption tower 7 is thermally desorbed by steam stripping, and the steam containing the solvent is condensed and recovered in the condenser 8. Note that 14 indicates steam lines and 15 indicates cooling water lines.

However, in the above process, the recovery of the solvent (absorbent liquid) from the off-gas is limited to the condenser 1.
3 alone is insufficient, and currently most of it is recovered in the adsorption tower 7. Therefore, the load on the adsorption tower 7 is large, a large amount of steam is required for solvent desorption in the adsorption tower 7, and a condenser 8 for solvent vapor and steam is also required. C.O.
Considering that steam costs account for 50-70% of the operating cost of a separation process, such a steam-intensive process is unreasonable.

11, and the pressurized raw material gas is sent to the absorption tower 1 via the damper 21, while a part of it is branched and sent from the line 19 to the adsorption tower 7.
In this step, the solvent adsorbed from the off-gas is desorbed, and the raw material gas containing the solvent is returned to the original raw material supply line 22 via the line 20. The off-gas from the absorption tower 1 is expanded via the line 23.

In the above configuration, the raw material gas is pressurized to, for example, about 5 kg/cm 2 G and 100° C. by the pressurizing turbine 11.
The raw material gas is heated and partially branched through line 19, and the branched raw material gas is used for desorption of the solvent in adsorption tower 7, and passes through line 20 together with the desorbed solvent.
They are combined again at the entrance of absorption tower 1. The raw material gas, whose pressure has been slightly reduced in this step, comes into countercurrent contact with the absorption liquid in the absorption tower 1, absorbs CO, and is then discharged from the top of the tower as an off-gas. The off-gas enters the expansion turbine 12 from the line 23, where the pressure is reduced to, for example, normal pressure and -10°C, and the temperature is lowered. In this step, the solvent is condensed and recovered, and the solvent is passed through the tank 16 and sent from the line 17 to the absorption tower 1. will be returned to. The off-gas from which the solvent has been recovered passes through the line 18 and finally enters the adsorption tower 7, where the remaining solvent is adsorbed. For the desorption of this adsorbent, pressurized raw material gas is used instead of steam as described above, and therefore operating costs can be significantly reduced, and the condenser 8 required when using steam is also eliminated. No longer needed. Incidentally, when the CO recovery rate was 90% with a raw material gas (BFG) of 50,000 Nm 3 /H, it was possible to reduce steam by approximately 30T/H.

According to the above embodiment, by pressurizing the raw material gas with the compressor, the amount of solvent released in the absorption tower 1 is reduced, and at the same time, when the power is recovered by the expansion turbine, the gas temperature is lowered, so that the solvent is removed. It can be condensed and recovered, and furthermore, by branching a part of the pressurized raw material gas and using it for desorption of the solvent in the adsorption tower 7, it is possible to
can be made unnecessary. Further, as described above, since the solvent can be condensed and recovered by decompressing the pressurized off-gas, the conventional condenser 13 is also unnecessary.

According to the process of the present invention, for example, the amount of solvent dissipated can be reduced to about 80% of the conventional amount, and the recovery rate of the solvent is low in conventional coolers due to the low temperature of the absorption liquid. However, in the present invention, since the pressure is reduced by an expansion turbine to lower the temperature, this can be done without difficulty. Furthermore, for the adsorption and recovery of solvents, conventionally a large-capacity adsorption tower was required, but since a large amount is recovered using an expansion turbine, an adsorption tower with, for example, 50% of the conventional capacity can be used. When raw material gas is used instead, there are advantages such as no need for a solvent-water separator or the like.
