摘要
Solvay和改进的Solvay工艺在将盐水盐度降低到适合农业和工业的水平方面面临着重大挑战。这一挑战是由于二氧化碳气体和盐水之间的竞争反应和混合限制而产生的。另一个挑战是碳酸氢钠(NaHCO3)的高溶解度,这导致整体脱盐效率较低。先前的研究证实了基于氢氧化钾(KOH)的改进溶剂法的有效性。本研究的第一个目标是评估基于氢氧化钾(KOH)的改进Solvay工艺的多阶段处理,与之前在最佳操作条件下获得的结果相比,该工艺可以进一步减少高盐度盐水中的离子去除,并增加二氧化碳捕获。研究了三种不同的方法。第一种方法评价了加入碳酸氢铵(NH4HCO3)降低NaHCO3溶解度的有效性。尽管Na+和Cl−浓度分别降低了56.2%和40%,但CO2的总吸收量却略微提高了1.2% (67.8 g CO2/1000 ml处理盐水)。在第二种方法中,研究了在后续阶段添加额外的KOH以克服第一种方法中观察到的pH降低。与第一种方法相比,CO2吸收量提高了~ 47.3%。此外,Na+和Cl−去除率分别提高到65%和64.5%。在第三种方法中,Ca2+和Mg2+的回收率分别约为76.3%和94.6%,经过预处理步骤(过滤),然后进行与第二种方法相同的步骤。减少这些离子减少了竞争反应,从而增加了CO2的溶解度和与KOH的反应性,导致所有阶段的累积CO2吸收量增加到108.2 g CO2/1000 ml,比第二种方法多8.3%。利用扫描电镜、x射线衍射、红外光谱和拉曼光谱对固体产物进行了表征。最后,利用进气液流量的阶跃变化对反应器的动态特性进行了评价。结果表明,该反应器系统对大规模过程的适应性是有希望的。
A process for CO2 capture and brine salinity reduction through reaction with potassium hydroxide: A multi-stage evaluation
Solvay and modified Solvay processes are facing a major challenge in reducing brine salinity to a level suitable for agriculture and industry. This challenge arises as a result of competing reactions and mixing limits between CO2 gas and brine. Another challenge is the high solubility of sodium bicarbonate (NaHCO3), which results in a low overall desalination efficiency. Previous studies established the effectiveness of a modified Solvay process based on potassium hydroxide (KOH). The first objective of this study is to evaluate a multi-stage treatment for a modified Solvay process on the basis of potassium hydroxide (KOH) to achieve an additional reduction in ion removal from high-salinity brines and an increase in CO2 capture as compared to previously obtained under optimal operating conditions. Three different methods were investigated. The first method evaluated the effectiveness of adding ammonium bicarbonate (NH4HCO3) in reducing the solubility of NaHCO3. Even though the and concentrations were reduced by 56.2% and 40%, respectively, the total CO2 uptake slightly improved by 1.2% (67.8 g CO2/1000 ml of treated brine). In the second method, the addition of extra KOH in subsequent stages was investigated to overcome the pH reduction observed in the first method. There was an 47.3% improvement in CO2 uptake from the first method. Furthermore, the percentages of and removal were increased to 65% and 64.5%, respectively. In the third method, the recovery of and was approximately 76.3% and 94.6%, respectively, following the pre-treatment step (filtration), followed by the same stages as in the second method. Reducing these ions decreased the competitive reactions and thus increased CO2 solubility and reactivity with KOH, resulting in higher cumulative CO2 uptake from all stages to 108.2 g CO2/1000 ml, which was 8.3% more than the second method. Additionally, solid products were characterized using scanning electron microscopy, X-ray diffraction, FTIR and Raman analysis. Finally, the dynamic behaviour of the reactor was evaluated using step changes in the inlet gas and liquid flow rate. The results are promising in terms of the reactor system's adaptability to large-scale processes.
期刊介绍:
The objective of the Journal of Natural Gas Science & Engineering is to bridge the gap between the engineering and the science of natural gas by publishing explicitly written articles intelligible to scientists and engineers working in any field of natural gas science and engineering from the reservoir to the market.
An attempt is made in all issues to balance the subject matter and to appeal to a broad readership. The Journal of Natural Gas Science & Engineering covers the fields of natural gas exploration, production, processing and transmission in its broadest possible sense. Topics include: origin and accumulation of natural gas; natural gas geochemistry; gas-reservoir engineering; well logging, testing and evaluation; mathematical modelling; enhanced gas recovery; thermodynamics and phase behaviour, gas-reservoir modelling and simulation; natural gas production engineering; primary and enhanced production from unconventional gas resources, subsurface issues related to coalbed methane, tight gas, shale gas, and hydrate production, formation evaluation; exploration methods, multiphase flow and flow assurance issues, novel processing (e.g., subsea) techniques, raw gas transmission methods, gas processing/LNG technologies, sales gas transmission and storage. The Journal of Natural Gas Science & Engineering will also focus on economical, environmental, management and safety issues related to natural gas production, processing and transportation.
