摘要:
The invention relates to a system unit for desorbing carbon dioxide and other impurities from highly pressurized methanol. Said system unit comprises at least one or more expansion vessels arranged in succession, at least one heat exchanger, and at least one liquid/gas separator. The inventive system unit contains: a) a line (1) through which the intensely cooled methanol leaving expansion vessel (C) is introduced into the heat exchanger (E) from underneath, and; b) a line (2), though which the heated methanol is drawn out of the heat exchanger (E) from the top, and which serves to connect said heat exchanger to a liquid/gas separator inside of which the remaining carbon dioxide still contained in the methanol is desorbed and separated out to the greatest possible extent. This system unit enables the cold due to evaporation, said cold resulting during the desorption of carbon dioxide, to be obtained inside a heat exchanger and constitutes an important cold energy source for carrying out absorption.

The invention relates to a method for the coproduction of methanol and ammonia having the following steps: 1. Natural gas (stream 1), steam and oxygen are mixed together in a reactor A, wherein the natural gas is partially oxidized and further reformed with the aid of catalysts, 2. The gas mixture taken from reactor A is divided into stream (stream 2) for the methanol synthesis in a unit E and another stream (stream 3) for hydrogen production, 3. The carbon monoxide present in the stream (stream 3) for the hydrogen production is converted into carbon dioxide with aid from catalysts and intermediate cooling stages, 4. Remaining impurities such as methane, traces of carbon monoxide and argon are washed out in a purification unit D, and hydrogen (streams 6, 8) is fed to the methanol synthesis in the unit E and the ammonia synthesis in a unit F, 5. The methanol synthesis gas (stream 7) is converted into methanol (stream 9) in a unit E with the help of a catalyst, and the methanol is brought to the required purity by distillation, 6. The ammonia synthesis gas (stream 8) is compressed and with the help of a catalyst is converted to ammonia (stream 10) in unit F, and the ammonia is separated from the recovered synthesis gas by partial condensation.

Disclosed is a method for the production of urea from natural gas, wherein a) natural gas undergoes partial oxidation or autothermal reformation with a gas containing oxygen in a first step and the raw synthesis gas thus arising, consisting essentially of carbon monoxide, carbon dioxide, methane and hydrogen, can be transformed by catalytic conversion of CO and H2O to form CO2 and H2, whereupon carbon monoxide and methane are removed in a multistep gas cleaning process and the hydrogen is converted into ammonia upon addition of nitrogen, and subsequently, b) the ammonia is recombined with the previously separated carbon dioxide in a second step and the ammonia is thus fully converted into urea.

Natural gas (flow 1) , steam and oxygen are mixed with one another in a reactor A during which the natural gas is partially oxidized and additionally reformed with the aid of catalysts; 2.

摘要:
A method for producing ammonia from natural gas, fed to an autothermic reformer with an O2 rich gas. Crude synthesis gas is produced at temperatures of 900 to 1200° C., pressures of 40 to 100 bar and in the presence of a cracking catalyst. The crude synthesis gas is led through a catalytic conversion system to convert CO to H2, thereby obtaining a conversion synthesis gas with a H2 content of at least 55 vol.-% and a CO content of not more than 8 vol.-%. The conversion synthesis gas is subjected to a gas purification to remove CO2, CO and CH4, thereby producing an N2—H2 mixture that is subjected to a catalytic ammonia synthesis. The ammonia produced can at least be partially converted to urea by reacting it with CO2.
