Definitions

  • the present disclosure relates generally to ammonia synthesis, and more particularly to methods and systems for efficiently producing ammonia.
  • Ammonia production (NH3) accounts for approximately 80% of the fertilizer industry’s total energy consumption globally.
  • Producing ammonia requires a multistep, energy intensive process, known as the Haber-Bosch process.
  • the Haber-Bosch process converts atmospheric nitrogen (N2) to ammonia (NH3) by a reaction with hydrogen (H2) using an iron metal catalyst under high temperatures and pressures.
  • Ammonia synthesis reaction can generally be written as follows:
  • steam reforming of light hydrocarbons is the most used method for the large-scale ammonia production, where natural gas is purified, then converted to hydrogen via steam reforming or partial oxidation of the natural gas, thereby forming of synthesis gas, or syngas.
  • the syngas in turn is utilized in the synthesis of ammonia in the presence of nitrogen per the above reaction.
  • the total energy consumption of the production of ammonia in these large- scale steam reformers is approximately 50% greater than the theoretical thermodynamic minimum. This elevated energy consumption is largely contributed to compression losses throughout these steam reforming processes.
  • the ammonia is produced, it is separated from unreacted N2 and H2, which must then be repressurized, reheated, and recycled.
  • the process utilizes vapor compression cycles during ammonia synthesis to compress unreacted nitrogen and hydrogen into recycle streams directed back into the ammonia synthesis process. Because the nitrogen conversion rates of these processes are typically less than 20%, the recycle streams are large and therefore require large amounts of compression work before the unreacted nitrogen and hydrogen can be directed back into the synthesis process. All of this in addition to the steam reforming step contributes to high energy consumption and greenhouse gas emissions.
  • a method for ammonia synthesis and system comprises integrating an ammonia absorption refrigeration cycle and an ammonia synthesis cycle, the ammonia synthesis cycle comprising a multistage non-adiabatic reactor system, supplying waste heat from the ammonia synthesis cycle to the ammonia absorption refrigeration cycle, and supplying lean solution from the ammonia absorption refrigeration cycle to the ammonia synthesis cycle as a heat exchange utility fluid.

  • the ammonia absorption refrigeration cycle is configured to supply lean ammonia solution to the multi-stage, non-adiabatic reactor system to control a thermal condition of the reactor system.
  • the lean ammonia solution can cool the non-adiabatic reactors to a temperature that favors nitrogen conversion.
  • the lean solution from the ammonia absorption refrigeration cycle is supplied to and then returned from each reactor of the multistage, non- adiabatic reactor system.
  • the multistage, non-adiabatic reactor system comprises at least two ammonia reactors and at least one heat exchanger.
  • the reaction mixture exits the ammonia synthesis cycle and is directed to an ammonia chiller system, wherein the ammonia is chilled and pumped to storage.
  • a nitrogen conversion of the syngas of the ammonia synthesis cycle is at least 85%, at least 90%, or at least 95%, such that there is no need for a recycled syngas stream.
  • the ammonia absorption refrigeration cycle includes an evaporator configured to convert liquid ammonia to gaseous ammonia, an absorber configured to combine the gaseous ammonia with water to form an ammonia-rich solution, a generator configured to heat the ammonia-rich solution to convert the ammonia contained therein to gaseous ammonia while the remaining solution (lean ammonia solution) remains liquid to be returned to the absorber, and a condenser for condensing the gaseous ammonia from the generator into liquid ammonia to be returned to the evaporator.
  • the ammonia absorption refrigeration cycle can further include a pump configured to pump the ammonia-rich solution to the generator, a pressure reducing valve positioned between the generator and the absorber and configured to reduce a pressure of the remaining solution returning from the generator to the absorber, and an expansion valve positioned between the condenser and the evaporator and configured to reduce a pressure of the liquid ammonia returning from the condenser to the evaporator.
  • a heat exchanger can also be positioned between the absorber and the generator to heat the ammonia-rich solution and/or cool the lean ammonia solution.
  • a method of producing ammonia can include introducing a synthesis gas comprising hydrogen and nitrogen to an ammonia synthesis cycle comprising a multistage, non- adiabatic reactor system to produce a reaction mixture containing ammonia product and unreacted synthesis gas, separating the ammonia product from the unreacted synthesis gas (if present), providing the ammonia product to a chiller system, and providing a lean ammonia solution from an ammonia absorption refrigeration cycle to the reactor system as a heat exchange fluid.

  • FIG. 1 depicts an example of related art for a method of ammonia synthesis, relying on the Haber-Bosch process.
  • Synthesis by the Haber-Bosch process requires nitrogen and hydrogen gasses be fed into a compressor before entering a reactor. In the reactor, some of the nitrogen gas and hydrogen gas react to form ammonia. The newly formed ammonia and any unreacted nitrogen and hydrogen are then fed into a heat exchanger. In the heat exchanger, the ammonia and unreacted nitrogen and unreacted hydrogen are cooled, then directed into a condenser.
  • the condenser outputs the newly formed liquid ammonia into a refrigerated unit for storage as a liquid.

  • the produced syngas feed 209 containing hydrogen undergoes compression 208 before being directed to the ammonia synthesis unit 210. Compression is required to bring the syngas to the favored reaction conditions (pressure and temperature) for producing ammonia, as the synthesis reaction favors higher pressure and lower temperature gasses.
  • Waste heat 212 from the ammonia synthesis unit 210 produced from the exothermic reaction is directed back to the synthesis production unit, used in the steam reforming of the natural gas.
  • Newly formed ammonia product 216 undergoes compression 208 for refrigeration purposes.
  • the newly formed ammonia product 216 exits the ammonia synthesis unit 210 as a liquid.
  • Steam 214 is directed into or out of the ammonia plant 201 as required for equilibrium.

Because the synthesis of ammonia is not a complete reaction, the unreacted nitrogen and hydrogen gasses must be compressed back to reaction conditions after being separated from the product ammonia. Further, because of this relatively low single pass conversion rate of syngas to ammonia, the recycle stream must be relatively large.

Abstract

Systèmes et procédés de synthèse d'ammoniac intégrant un cycle de réfrigération à absorption d'ammoniac et un cycle de synthèse d'ammoniac. Le cycle de synthèse d'ammoniac comprend un système de réacteurs non adiabatiques à étages multiples formé de multiples réacteurs non adiabatiques pour convertir un gaz de synthèse contenant de l'hydrogène et de l'azote en ammoniac. L'ammoniac est refroidi et stocké sous la forme d'un produit d'ammoniac froid. Une solution pauvre provenant du cycle de réfrigération à absorption d'ammoniac peut être utilisée en tant que fluide utilitaire d'échange de chaleur pour les réacteurs, et le cycle de réfrigération peut également être utilisé pour refroidir l'ammoniac provenant du cycle de synthèse aux fins d'un stockage à froid. La quasi-totalité du gaz de synthèse est convertie en un seul passage dans le système de réacteurs non adiabatiques à étages multiples, des flux de recyclage n'étant dès lors plus nécessaires et la consommation d'énergie associée étant ainsi réduite.
