Background technique
Petrochemical enterprise in process of production, can generate various fuel gas, flammable liquid or combustion-supporting gas.Combustible gas and
Flammable liquid is also normally used as raw material and largely uses.For combustible gas, there are an explosion limits, when under explosion
It will not fire in limited time, it is ensured that safe handling.And for the three-element mixed gas body system of " fuel-oxygen-inert gas ", exist
The limiting value of one oxygen content, as long as the oxygen content in system is lower than the limiting value, no matter how remaining two kinds of constituent content becomes
Change, will not all enter and fire within region, which is referred to as the maximum allowable oxygen content of system.If various Control of gas content
Improper, combustible gas, combustible vapor can set off an explosion, this will cause serious destruction to building, the equipment etc. of surrounding, while can also
Cause personal injury.Occurs gas phase explosion in order to prevent, usually by the control of flammable Gas content under explosion limit or by oxygen content
Control is kept away under the maximum allowable oxygen content, that is, through the content of the content or oxygen that are passed through carrier gas control combustible gas
Exempt to fire.
For some equipment or technique, the content of specific gas, combustible gas are generally controlled by being passed through diluent gas
Or oxygen content fluctuation it is smaller when, diluent gas intake variation it is also smaller, usually only need a diluent gas pipe
Simultaneously installation and adjustment valve can be met the requirements line.For example, Storage Tanks Combustible Liquid, for guarantee safety need to by be passed through inert gas come
The content of oxygen in storage tank is controlled, inert gas intake is almost fixed, slightly fluctuated, and an inert gas is installed above storage tank
Pipeline and installation and adjustment valve.
However, many techniques, device are influenced oxygen content by process conditions, external environment or raw material or can at present
Gas content changes greatly, and more particularly to the equipment of reaction, bad just have is controlled under special operation condition and fires risk.Especially
Using the technique of liquid oxidizer, oxidant itself can decompose release oxygen, and controllability is relatively poor, and it is hidden to there is very big safety
Suffer from.For example, green epoxychloropropane technique, this technique is to prepare epoxychloropropane using hydrogen peroxide direct oxidation chloropropene.It is double
Enter reactor after oxygen water and chloropropene mixing, product enters knockout drum after reaction.It, can since hydrogen peroxide itself easily decomposes
Oxygen is generated, so remaining hydrogen peroxide can decompose generation oxygen on a small quantity in reactor and knockout drum in reactants and products
Gas, and explosive mixture is formed with the combustible gas of knockout drum upper space.However, hydrogen peroxide itself is decomposed by a variety of
The influence of factor, there are uncertainties.During normal production, hydrogen peroxide itself decomposition rate generally changes less, inert gas tube
Linear flow rate can slightly be adjusted according to the fluctuation of oxygen content in knockout drum.But under unusual service condition, hydrogen peroxide itself is acute
Strong decomposition can generate a large amount of oxygen, and regulating effect is little at this time.This is primarily due to dioxygen water unstable, by alkali, temperature, metal
The factors such as ion are affected.Under unusual service condition, hydrogen peroxide largely decomposes and generates a large amount of oxygen, common inert flue
Line can not meet the purging requirement of technique, can not adjust the oxygen content in knockout drum rapidly, so that gas phase oxygen content
Control lag fires risk there are huge.
In addition, the high flow capacity under special operation condition requires the moment that carrier gas flow control is swift in response, flow is high, required
Diluting gas flow is far beyond maximum process.However, select a large amount of range controllers then inadequate for daily control precision,
Cause the waste of diluent gas.

It answers in device and reacts, the product after reaction enters in knockout drum.Since hydrogen peroxide itself decomposition is affected by many factors, itself
It is unstable, it is easy to selfdecomposition and generate oxygen, when especially being reacted with organic matter, the organic matter of gas-phase space and dioxygen moisture
The oxygen mix of solution release, which has, fires risk.Therefore in the production technology using hydrogen peroxide as oxidant, slow down hydrogen peroxide
Selfdecomposition and control gas-phase space oxygen content be particularly important.The maximum allowable oxygen content test has been carried out using Detonation Tube,
Measure that guarantee not occur highest oxygen content that gas phase fires in knockout drum be 4%, by experiment to guarantee process safety, dress
Setting oxygen content in operation requires control 2% hereinafter, and using nitrogen as diluent gas.It is carried out according to prior art scale
Process simulation and calculation, the nitrogen flow in device stable operation on pipeline 30 are 40Nm3/ h or so, at this point, can guarantee gas-liquid
Oxygen content is below 2% in knockout drum.Under normal conditions, the selfdecomposition speed of hydrogen peroxide generally changes less.According to oxygen
The oxygen content fluctuation that content detection instrument 50 detects, the first carrier gas flow diluted in gas pipeline 30 can be by regulating valve 40 slightly
There is adjusting.The oxygen content in knockout drum is detected and controlled to the moment as a result, reduces firing for the mixture in knockout drum
Risk.
And under special operation condition, for example, reactor cooling failure causes to be mixed into metal in temperature control or other raw materials
Ion etc. accelerates so as to cause decomposing hydrogen dioxide solution so that oxygen content sharply increases.Gas-liquid under different dioxygen instant water decomposition amounts
Oxygen content in knockout drum can be found in table 1.According to decomposing hydrogen dioxide solution rule and process conditions, the simulation estimate maximum of hydrogen peroxide
Moment resolution ratio, and setting for the caliber of the second dilution gas pipeline 60 is obtained according to the maximum instantaneous Growth Rate Calculation of hydrogen peroxide content
Evaluation.It should be 25mm using the caliber that the second dilution gas pipeline 60 is calculated in ASPEN simulation.And gas pipeline 60 is diluted by second
In control valve 70 be set as quck-opening valve, the initiation value of quck-opening valve is set as 3%.It is detected as a result, when oxygen content detector 50
When numerical value reaches 3%, quck-opening valve starts rapidly, and into target container 20, high flow capacity inputs nitrogen to reduce rapidly oxygen content, keeps away
Exempt to generate gas phase explosion because of oxygen content over-limit condition.And when the numerical value that oxygen content detector 50 detects is lower than 2%, fastly
Valve opening is then closed rapidly.As a result, in process of production, by the second dilution gas pipeline 60 and quck-opening valve effectively by target container
Control for Oxygen Content in 20 hereinafter, effectively prevent generating gas phase explosion because of oxygen content over-limit condition, improves life 2%
The security performance of production.
