摘要:

丁二烯精馏塔再沸器聚合物的堵塞会显著降低其换热效率,导致能耗升高、产品纯度不足(如1,3-丁二烯纯度<99.2%),并影响装置长周期运行。设计缺陷使丙炔精馏塔再沸器和丁二烯精馏塔再沸器液相线处于全塔最低点,造成聚合物及TBC阻聚剂积累,加剧管道堵塞与换热效率下降。安全阀前未设爆破片,高浓度丁二烯聚合可能堵塞或胀裂安全阀,形成安全隐患。塔顶压力调节阀PV24006副线开度不足(低于2扣)导致介质流动性差,易在死角生成聚合物。此外,TBC阻聚剂需在指定注入点(丙炔/丁二烯塔顶气相线及回流线)精确添加,注入不足会引发塔底聚合,缩短再沸器运行周期;过量则导致设备堵塞及成本增加。氧含量和塔压失控会直接引发聚合反应,堵塞设备并迫使系统停工清理。

Abstract:

Polymer blockage in reboilers of butadiene distillation towers can significantly reduce the heat transfer efficiency of reboilers, leading to increased energy consumption and insufficient product purity (such as 1,3-butadiene purity < 99.2%), and posing a threat to the long-term operation of the unit. Design defects cause the liquid phase lines of the reboilers in acetylene distillation tower and butadiene distillation tower to be at the lowest point of the entire tower, resulting in the accumulation of polymers and TBC inhibitors, which exacerbates the pipeline blockage and decreases the heat transfer efficiency. No rupture disc is installed upstream the safety valve, and the polymerization of high-concentration butadiene may block or swell the safety valve, posing a safety hazard. Insufficient bypass opening (below 2 turns) of the pressure regulating valve PV24006 results in poor medium fluidity and easy polymer formation in dead legs. In addition, TBC inhibitors need to be accurately added at the designated injection points (the overhead gas phase line and reflux line of acetylene/butadiene towers). Insufficient injection can cause polymerization at the bottom and shorten the operating cycle of reboilers. Excessive injection can lead to equipment blockage and increased costs. Uncontrolled oxygen content and tower pressure can directly trigger polymerization reactions, block the equipment, and force the system to shut down for cleaning.
