2 AMMONIA DESTRUCTION IN THE CLAUS FURNACE O 2 (N 2 ) The Old Picture Combustion chamber 2500 o C 1300 o C WHB 600 o C flame acid gas (H 2 S / CO 2 ) zone SWSG H 2 S / NH 3 / H 2 O Anoxic zone Products 2 NH 3 + 3/2 O 2 N H 2 O 2 NH 3 + O 2 N 2 + H H 2 O 2 NH 3 + O 2 N H 2 + H 2 O Exothermic 2 NH 3 N H 2 Endothermic More O 2 must be added to the combustion chamber
3 2 NH 3 + SO 2 N H 2 O + 1/2 S 2 + H 2 Does NH 3 react with SO 2? EFFECT OF RATES OF OXIDATION ON AMMONIA DESTRUCTION O 2 (N 2 ) Combustion chamber 2500 o C 1300 o C WHB 600 o C acid gas flame zone SWSG H 2 S / NH 3 / H 2 O Anoxic zone Products Oxidation rates: H 2 S >> NH 3 CH 4 Ea (kcal. mol -1 ) (Calculated from ASRL data) : H 2 S, 18.3; CH 4, 46.4; NH 3, 62.0 Consequences: H 2 S + 3/2 O 2 SO 2 + H 2 O (excess) 4 NH SO 2 2 N H 2 O + 3/2 S 2
4 OVERVIEW OF NH 3 CONVERSION MECHANISMS IN THE CLAUS FURNACE N 2 + H 2 (100%) N 2 + H 2 (< 10%) dry 1200 o C dissociation suppressed by H 2 O and H 2 S wet, 1200 o C (30 vol% H 2 O) O 2 oxidation ( > 1200 o C) N 2 + H 2 O NH 3 SO 2 (distinct reaction) ( > 800 o C) [Ea 27 kcal. mol -1 ] N 2 + S 2 + H 2 O (30 100%) 800 o C >1200 o C 4NH 3 + 3SO 2 2N 2 + 6H 2 O + 3/2S 2 OVER-OXIDATION OF H 2 S DUE TO RELATIVE COMBUSTION KINETICS
5 AMMONIA DESTRUCTION FURNACE DESIGN TO (AG) H 2 S / H 2 O MAXIMIZE CONVERSION BY SO 2 SWSG (Air) Steam NH 3 / SO 2 Conversion Air H 2 S + 3 / 2 O 2 SWSG (Air) SO 2 + H 2 O H 2 O Sulfur condensers [2 H 2 S + SO 2 3 / 2 S 2 + H 2 O] 4 NH3 + 3 SO 2 2 N H 2 O + 3 / 2 S 2 4 NH SO 2 2 N H 2 O + 2 H 2 S 4 NH 3 + SO 2 2 N 2 + H 2 O + H 2 S + 4 H 2 In theory, the temperature of the furnace can be controlled by limiting the SO 2 make but this strategy leads to increase H 2 content in the process gas (low S 8 yield). In general, any SO 2 -rich system should enhance NH 3 conversion.
6 AMMONIUM SALT DEPOSITION IN CLAUS PLANTS Ammonium salts Comments NH 4 H S H 2 S + NH 3 Unstable > 100⁰C NH 4 H SO 3 NH 3 + H 2 SO 3 H 2 O + SO 2 H 2 SO 3 is unstable > 100⁰C NH 4 H S 2 O 3 NH 3 + H 2 S 2 O 3 H 2 O + S 2 O 2 S 2 O 2 is not stable NH 4 H SO 4 NH 3 + H 2 SO 4 H 2 O + SO 3 H 2 SO 4 is stable but SO 3 is not expected in the Claus furnace Plant deposits contain (NH 4 ) 2 SO 4 (NH 4 HSO 4 ) [analysis?] Laboratory studies reveal deposits contain (NH 4 ) 2 SO 4 and (NH 4 ) 2 S 2 O 3 Where do the SO 3 and S 2 O 2 come from?
7 CLAUS CHEMISTRY AND DEPOSITION OF AMMONIUM SALTS H 2 S / SO 2 (g) H 2 O / S 8 (g) H 2 S / SO 2 [H 2 S x O y ] H 2 O + S 8 Al 2 O 3 H 2 S x O y are formed as intermediates in the Claus reaction and include H 2 S 2 O 3 and H 2 SO 4 H 2 S / SO 2 (g) NH 3 [NH 4 HS x O y ] H 2 O / S 8 (g) H 2 S / SO 2 [H 2 S x O y ] H 2 O + S 8 Al 2 O 3 In laboratory experiments, NH 3 (100 ppmv) in H 2 O were found to strip H 2 S x O y from Claus catalyst at 320⁰ 120⁰C leading to deposition of NH 4 HS 2 O 3 and NH 4 HSO 4 in cooler parts of the system. Conclusion: The only requirement for ammonium salt deposition in a Claus plant is unconverted NH 3
8 NEW DIRECTIONS IN AMMONIA DECOMPOSITION ASRL STUDIES Catalyst Assisted Decomposition SWSG /Air (AG) NH 3 / SO 2 Conversion Claus converters Air SO 2 Production SWSG / Air Liquid S 8 Catalyst has dual role: conversion of any residual NH 3 and protection of WHB / ferrule system from flame impingement. Catalyst formulation: Top secret Catalyst conversion
9 WHY DO WE DESTROY NH 3? H 2 S (H 2 O) Claus plant H 3 PO 4 / H 2 O NH 4 H 2 PO 4 (NH 4 ) 2 H PO 4 (NH 3 ) 3 PO 4 Ammonium phosphates [fertilizer - $500 / ton for DAP] SWSG [NH 3 / H 2 O / H 2 S] Both NH 3 and water (largely) would be removed from H 2 S Could be shipped to DAP producer in solution Phosphoric acid scrubbing is an old process NH3 (SWSG) must be heavy metal (As) free.
