Reclaiming device, method, and recovery unit of CO
View Patent ↗Provided are a reclaimer 51 that introduces, through a branch line L 11 , and stores a part 17 a of an absorbent 17 regenerated in a regenerator of a recovery unit that recovers CO 2 or H 2 S in a gas, a first alkaline agent supply section 53 A that supplies an alkaline agent 52 to the reclaimer 51 , a heating section 54 that heats the absorbent 17 stored in the reclaimer 51 and to which the alkaline agent 52 has been mixed to obtain recovered vapor 61 , a first vapor cooler 55 A that cools the recovered vapor 61 discharged from the reclaimer 51 through a vapor line L 12 , a first gas-liquid separator 56 A that separates a coexisting substance 62 entrained in the cooled recovered vapor 61 into a recovered absorption agent vapor (gas) 17 b and the liquid coexisting substance 62 by gas-liquid separation, and an introduction line L 13 that introduces the recovered absorption agent vapor 17 b separated in the first gas-liquid separator 56 A into a regenerator 20.
1. A reclaiming device comprising:
a reclaimer configured to introduce and store a part of an absorbent regenerated in an absorbent regenerator of a recovery unit that recovers CO 2 or H 2 S in a gas;
a first alkaline agent supply section configured to supply an alkaline agent to the reclaimer;
a heating section configured to heat the absorbent stored in the reclaimer and to which the alkaline agent has been mixed to obtain recovered vapor;
a second vapor cooler configured to cool the recovered vapor discharged from the reclaimer through a vapor line;
a first gas-liquid separator configured to separate a coexisting substance entrained in the cooled recovered vapor into recovered absorption agent vapor and a liquid coexisting substance by gas-liquid separation;
a cooler configured to cool the separated recovered absorption agent vapor;
a second gas-liquid separator configured to separate the recovered absorption agent vapor after cooling into a low-boiling point substance flue gas and a recovered absorbent by gas-liquid separation;
a heat exchanger configured to perform heat exchange of the liquid coexisting substance separated in the first gas-liquid separator with vapor condensed water from vapor supplied to the reclaimer to increase a temperature;
a CO 2 absorber configured to bring the liquid coexisting substance after increase in the temperature and a CO 2 gas in contact;
a second alkaline agent supply section configured to supply the alkaline agent to the liquid coexisting substance after absorption of CO 2 ; and
a distiller configured to distill the liquid coexisting substance to which the alkaline agent has been supplied while introducing the CO 2 gas thereinto.
2. The reclaiming device according to claim 1 , wherein
the second vapor cooler includes
a first cooler configured to perform cooling with the liquid coexisting substance separated from the recovered vapor in the first gas-liquid separator by gas-liquid separation,
a second cooler configured to perform cooling with reflux water from the absorbent regenerator, and
a third cooler provided at a downstream side of a rich/lean solution heat exchanger disposed in a lean solution supply line, and configured to cool, with a rich solution, the recovered vapor after cooling with the second cooler.
3. The reclaiming device according to claim 1 , comprising:
a CO 2 gas introduction line configured to introduce the CO 2 gas discharged from the CO 2 absorber into the distiller; and
a nitrogen supply section configured to introduce a nitrogen gas into the CO 2 gas introduction line.
