Abstract
A bubbling column reactor with internal damping member features that said internal damping member is coaxially installed in the reaction region above gas distributor for suppressing the flow speed in central region to make the radial speed distribution more uniform and interferring the flow field to promote local turbulence and increase gas-liquid mass transfer speed.
Description
Technical field
The present invention relates to a kind of solution-air bubbling column reactor or gas-liquid-solid three-phase bubble column reactors, especially have the bubbling column reactor of damping internal construction member, be used for the heterogeneous reaction or the gas absorption operation of various chemical process.
Background technology
Bubbling column reactor is widely used in many fields such as chemical industry, the energy, environment, biochemistry, is used for the mass transfer and the operation of gas-liquid two-phase or gas-liquid-solid three-phase, processes such as for example oxidation, hydrogenation, carbonylation, halogenation, fermentation, absorption.The industry bubbling column reactor maximizes at present day by day.A major issue during bubble tower amplifies, be the fluid axial flow velocity distribute diametrically inhomogeneous: in the tower central area, the solution-air two-phase upwards flows, and flow velocity is higher; In the zone near the tower wall, solution-air flows downward, and flow velocity is lower.Center gas holdup height, the near wall region gas holdup is low.Simultaneously, tower center two-phase flow velocity also increases along with the increase of tower diameter.Like this, when bubble tower amplifies, under high gas speed, velocity flow profile and gas holdup distribute will become more inhomogeneous especially.Computer simulation results shows, is the large-scale bubble tower of 6m for diameter, and when empty tower gas velocity during at 0.3 meter, central liquid speed may reach 4～5m/s, and gas speed is then higher.This just may cause gas from the short circuit of tower center, makes the gas-liquid loose contact, causes difficulty to amplification.For some oxidation reactions, the short circuit of gas also can cause the rising of tail gas oxygen concentration, brings potential safety hazard.Bubble tower inner member that propose and industrial employing mostly is for the consideration that improves the gas-liquid mixed state in the document at present, for example guide shell, multilayer insulating panel, paddle, or the like, also do not see and adopt inner member to improve the radially-arranged report of gas-liquid flow velocity with mobile obstacle effect.
Summary of the invention
The object of the present invention is to provide a kind of bubbling column reactor that has damping internal construction member that suppresses solution-air flow velocity inequality in the bubble tower, prevents the gas short circuit, strengthens mass transfer, amplifies easily.
The bubbling column reactor that has damping internal construction member of the present invention mainly comprises tower body, gas distributor, it is characterized in that damping internal construction member, damping internal construction member and the tower body coaxial line of device obstruction fluid motion in the reaction zone above gas distributor.
Need only satisfied for the damping internal construction member that is provided with: 1) have certain damping area perpendicular to fluid flow direction; 2) have certain circulation area, pass through to allow fluid; 3) there is the distribution of a definite form diametrically in the damping area, and in the central area, the damping area density is bigger, and outer peripheral areas damping area density is less.This is because central area rate of flow of fluid height need more damping area to come just can make flow velocity to be inhibited, and the outer peripheral areas rate of flow of fluid is less, does not need too many damping area.Therefore the damping internal construction member of the present invention's proposition has intensive, the peripheral sparse feature in center.
In principle, the peripheral maximum gauge of damping internal construction member or radical length and bubbling column reactor diameter ratio can be got any numerical value (0 is the center, and 1 is the wall position) between 0～1.If but damping internal construction member diameter or length are too small then sphere of action is limited, be difficult to make the flow velocity of central area effectively to be suppressed; If there is no need,, do not need to suppress because the flow velocity outside the central area is less and the damping internal construction member diameter is excessive.Measure according to velocity flow profile, suitable damping internal construction member peripheral diameter or radical length and bubbling column reactor diameter ratio are 0.1～1.0, and preferred diameter ratio is 0.2～0.6.
Damping internal construction member comprises a plurality of damping units, the number of damping unit or packing density require to determine according to the damping to velocity flow profile: if damping unit is crossed the requirement that does not reach effective inhibition center flow velocity at least, if and damping unit too much may make flow velocity be subjected to excessive inhibition, form new uneven distribution, even form flow dead in the central area.The present invention adopts the notion of damping area density to determine the packing density of damping unit, the damping area density is defined as the damping area of damping internal construction member in the unit reactor volume, and its computing formula is: all the overall reactor of the damping area of damping internal construction members/contain inner member is long-pending.Calculate test according to a large amount of flow measurements and hydrodynamics, the suitable damping area density that the present invention provides is 0.05～5.0m
2/ m
3, preferred damping area density is 0.20～2.0m
2/ m
3In case after the value of damping area density is determined, just can calculate the size and the quantity of required damping unit.
The present invention is because at the bubble tower reaction zone, the damping internal construction member that has been the reactor liquid level is following, gas distributor is above regional center device, convection cell mobile applies certain inhibition, can suppress the too fast flow velocity in central area effectively, makes the radial distribution of speed more even.Simultaneously,, promote local turbulence, improve gas-liquid mass transfer speed, process is strengthened by the interference of damping internal construction member stream field.The present invention is applicable to any type of gas-liquid or the solid bubbling column reactor of gas-liquid, for example top has the bubbling column reactor of expanding reach, top has the bubbling column reactor of rectifying section, GAS ABSORPTION section, particle and liquid foam segregation section, and any improvement to the reactor other parts does not influence the scope of application of the present invention.
