Abstract
The method for catalytic methanation of synthesis gas includes the following steps: 1) feeding the synthesis gas into the bottom of a reactor of an upward concurrent flow transporting bed so as to adequately mix and preheat with methanation catalyst entering the bottom of the reactor until the activation temperature of the catalyst is reached and then the methanation reaction begins; and 2) after the methanation reaction, immediately passing the product gas and the catalyst grains outputted from the transporting bed into a gas-solid separator to perform a rapid separation so as to obtain the product gas.
Claims4
A method for catalytic methanation of synthesis gas, the method comprising the steps of:
- 1) the synthesis gas is fed into bottom of an upward concurrent flow transporting bed reactor, the synthesis gas is fully mixed and preheated with methanation catalyst particles entering into the bottom of the upward concurrent flow transporting bed reactor, and then the mixture undergo methanation reaction after the temperature reaches the activation temperature of the catalyst, wherein outlet temperature of the upward concurrent flow transporting bed reactor is from 400° C. to 700° C., operation pressure is from 0.1 to 6.0 MPa and gas superficial speed is from 1 to 10 m/s;
- 2) after the methanation reaction is completed, product gas and the catalyst particles output from the transporting bed reactor directly enter into a gas-solid separator in order to quickly separate the product gas and the catalyst particles to obtain the product gas.
