併入本文。 經由氣化製造合成氣及從合成氣製造液態燃料為絕然 不同的方法。本發明特別感興趣的是使用曱烷蒸汽重組器 (SMR)(其為廣泛被用於製造供液態燃料及其他化學品用 的合成氣之反應器）來製造合成氣。在SMR中進行的反應 可寫出如下。 CH4+H20 + CO+3H2 (1) 或 CH4+2H2O ^ C02+4H2 (2) 經由使用蒸汽及曱烷當作進料在該SMR中製造一氧 化碳及氫。在蒸汽產生器中將製程水加熱而產生所需的蒸 汽。該曱烷通常以壓縮天然氣的形式供應，或藉由來自化 學或精製製程的輕分子量排氣流的形式供應。 【發明内容】 本發明提供將蒸汽及甲烷供應至SMR的改良的經濟 替代性方法。該方法係藉由新程序的組合而完成，其中經 由利用氣體淨化單元（gas cleanup unit)從該SHR的產物流 (product stream)移除雜質而以來自SHR的產物氣體 (product gas)當作該SMR的原料，該氣體淨化單元在製程 壓力下操作而且位於該SHR與SMR之間。 在本發明之一具體實例中，使用SHR的產物氣體當作 SMR的原料。如上所述，此富含蒸汽及甲烷的產物氣體係 藉由碳質材料與水的混合物之漿液的加氫氣化產生。此產 10 94049 200813209 物氣體為富含甲烷的氣體與蒸汽的混合物（其中該蒸汽係 由於過度加熱原料令的水而存在），係作為81\/1尺的理想進 料流。 其他的程序必需從該SHR的產物流（product stream) 移除雜質，例如灰燼及焦炭的微細粒子、硫化氫（H2S)及其 他無機成分。這些雜質必須予以移除以防止用於該SMR 的觸媒之毒化。習慣上，為達此目的，係使用微粒過濾器、 溶劑清洗（胺類、Selexol™、Rectisol™)及藉由Claus製程 ⑩的加氫脫硫化的組合。在該Claus製程中，係利用在高溫 (1000至1400°〇的反應爐中的空氣局部氧化1128。形成 硫，但是有些H2S仍維持未反應，而且有些S02需要被製 造而使殘餘的H2S在較低溫度（約200至350°C)與S02在 觸媒上反應以製成更多硫。然而，因為該SMR進料流必 須維持在南溫，所以該氣流的再加熱將耗損相當大量的能 量。因此，這些傳統淨化技術就能量觀點來看係禁止的。 馨再者，喪失了經由保持來自該SHR產物流的蒸汽所提供的 益處。因此，在本發明的另一具體實例中，係提供在製程 壓力下操作而且位於該SHR與SMR之間的氣體淨化單元。 更特別的是，提供用於將碳質材料轉化成合成氣之方 法，該方法包含在足以產生富含曱烷及一氧化碳的氣體產 物流（其可被稱為發生氣（producer gas))的溫度與壓力下， 在氫及蒸汽二者存在之下同時加熱碳質材料。實質上是在 製程壓力以及比製程壓力時的水之沸點更高的溫度之下從 該發生氣流移除雜質，且在藉以產生包含氫及一氧化碳的 11 94049 200813209 ^ 合成氣之條件下對所得的發生氣體進行曱烷蒸汽重組。在 ‘ 一特定方法中，為了將都市廢棄物、生物質、木材、煤或 ， 天然或合成聚合物轉化成合成氣，係在約700t：至約900 °C的溫度及約132 psi (磅/平方吋）至560 psi (磅/平方吋） 的壓力下，在氳及蒸汽二者存在之下同時加熱碳質材料， 藉以產生富含曱烷及一氧化碳的發生氣流。在該製程壓力 及在比製程壓力時的水之沸點更高的溫度（可能實質上在 製程溫度）下從該發生氣流移除雜質，接著在藉以產生包含 •約3比1的H2 : CO莫耳比範圍之氫及一氧化碳的合成氣 之條件下對所得的發生氣進行甲烷蒸汽重組。具有鈷為主 的觸媒之費-托型反應器所需的H2 : CO莫耳比為2 : 1。因 此，有過量的氫，其可被分離並且飼入該SHR而進行自持 式製程（self-sustainable process)，亦即，不需要外部的氳 進料。經由該曱烷蒸汽重組所產生的合成氣可在藉以製造 液態燃料的條件下飼入費-托型反應器中。該費-托型反應 0的放熱可被轉移至該加氫氣化反應及/或甲烷蒸汽重組反 應。 【實施方式】 本發明提供程序的組合，其中，於本發明之一具體實 施例中，SMR的原料為藉由SHR中的碳質材料與水的混 合物之加氫氣化所產生之富含蒸汽與曱烷的產物氣體之混 合物。該蒸汽係由於過度加熱原料中的水而存在，而且係 作為SMR的理想進料流。 其他的程序需要從該SHR的產物流移除雜質的方 12 94049 200813209 p 法，該雜質為例如灰燼及焦炭的微細粒子、硫化氳（h2s) v 及其他無機成分。這些雜質必須予以移除以防止用於該 1 SMR的觸媒之毒化同時使該SMR進料流維持在其高製程 溫度。因此，在本發明的另一具體實施例中，提供了氣體 淨化單元，該氣體淨化單元係在製程壓力以及在比製程壓 力時的水之沸點更高的溫度下操作，而且係設置在該SHR 與SMR之間。 參照第1圖，顯示該方法的流程圖。將内部產生的氫 ⑩進料10連同碳質材料14及水16飼入SHR 12中，於菝SHR 12中將彼等在400磅/平方吋加熱至750°C。將所得的發生 氣引至在約400磅/平方吋及約35(TC的氣體淨化過濾器 1 8，例如燭式過濾器組合件（〇&11(116；[1116了&5 361111>1)0。從而， 移除硫及灰燼之後，將流出物引至SMR 20以產生合成氣 體並且飼入費-托型反應器22,從該費-托型反應器22獲得 純水24、柴油燃料及/或蠟26。將一部分氫從該SMR 20 參分流出，在28反饋入該SHR 12。使用來自該費-托型反應 器22的熱30來補充該SMR的熱。 在水的起泡溫度以上操作該單元，使水以蒸汽形式存 在於來自SHR的氣態產物流中，藉以使該方法（process)能 保有該流出物流大部分的顯熱。第2圖中顯示質量平衡方 法流程圖。該圖中提供該方法各階段的產物流質量百分 比。使用ASPEN PLUS™平衡製程模擬來計算這些值。 ASPEN PLUS™為商用電腦模擬程式ASPEN PLUS™，其能 經由載入該等化學成分及操作條件而建立製程模型。該程 13 94049 200813209 ，式記錄所有規格並且模擬該模型，執行要解析該系統的結 -果所需的所有必要計算’從而預測其表現。當該等計算完 •成之後，ASPEN PLUSTM將列出每種流及每個單元的結 果。如第2圖所示，氫及41%煤漿液的舰原料將導致該 通中產生具有氫對-氧化碳之莫耳比為34: i的合成 氣。該SHR所需的進料氫可經由外部機構（觸㈣或經由 該SMR所產生的部分氫之内部反饋供應。在特定的例子 中，使用41%煤、52%水及7%氫的黎液，該浆液係依循 Norbeck等人的美國專利序號1〇/911,348的程序獲得。 任何能在比於製程燃力時的水之沸點更高的溫度下操 作的過渡器都可使用。有一種此類商業上可講得的過滤器 為濁式過濾器，其在此技藝中眾所周知。舉例來說，來見 吴國專利案號5,474,586，其揭示内容在此以引用方式併入 可用於本發明之可購得的氣體淨化單元為據悉在過 ;思奋益中▼有一系列燭狀過濾器的燭式過濾器。該 過濾器係由不銹鋼金屬燒結體脚)製成以移除來自該= 流的微粒物質(灰燼、無機鹽及未反應的焦炭)。將該漿液 2:谷益的底部入口飼入並且在頂部出口取出遽液。微粒

州，瑪麗愛特市的Bekaert購得，例如Bekpor⑧Porous Media-其係由具有孔洞尺寸為1的不鎮鋼燒結纖維基質製 成。這些吸附劑及過濾器構件使壓降及氣-固質傳限制的效 應被降至最低。在28大氣壓的壓力時，以300°C至500°C 範圍的溫度及達到2000/小時的空間速度用於SHR產物氣 體的脫硫。該氣體的硫化氫含量係藉由該等吸附劑的硫化 而減小至低到足以避免該SMR觸媒去活化的程度。該氣 鲁體淨化單元中所用的吸附劑可使用新鮮的吸附劑來置換或 在並排的多吸覆床中利用稀釋的空氣在原地再生。 第3圖中顯示證實利用該SHR產物流的直接飼入而成 功操作SMR的實驗數據。以在該SMR出口測得的氣體濃 度對該SMR溫度作圖。當該SMR的溫度低時，在該SMR 出口觀察到的主要產物為曱烷（因為該SHR為唯一操作的 反應器）。當該SMR的溫度提高時，曱烷濃度將降低而且 書觀察到氫及一氧化碳濃度的相對應提高。該SMR中製成 的合成氣之最終組成具有3 : 1的H2 : CO莫耳比。更普遍 地，本發明的方法可製造具有2 : 1至6 : 1的H2 : CO莫 耳比範圍之合成氣組成。 所得的流出物為富含氫、一氧化碳及蒸汽的氣體之綜 合物（synthesis)。使該SMR中產生的氫中將近三分之一再 循環回該SHR。因此，不需要外界的氳來源來維持穩態操 作。因此，該SHR和SMR製程可視為化學自持性 (chemically self-sustaining)。剩餘的合成氣接著可用於燃 15 94049 200813209 一 料的製造及製程加熱。 在本舍明的具體貫例中，該合成氣係飼入可製造不含 •硫、超高十六烷值柴油類的燃料及有價值的石蠟產物的製程 之費-托型反應器中。硫不存在能實現排出低污染物及粒子 的柴油燃料。有用的副產物可被製成，舉例來說，純水，其 可被再循環以產生加入該製程的漿液進料。該費托反應亦 2衣、含有氫、CO、co2及-些輕質烴氣體的尾氣。氫可 從該尾氣被脫出來並且再循環至該·或費_托反應器。任 何小量的其他氣體例如C0及c〇2都可予以去除。 η、儘管已經詳細說明本發明及其優點，但是應了解在此
