Hydrogen explosion incident mitigation in steam reforming units through enhanced inspection and forecasting corrosion tools implementation

Hydrogen (H₂) explosion effects recently examined, are confirming the devastating loss scenarios to humans, environment, assets, and associated business interruption. H₂ production is a core process in refineries used in further process steps. Steam reforming of natural gas or a mix with naphtha or LPG is a common hydrogen production technique, where the latest technologies have adopted enhanced metallurgies to minimize explosion risk and the associated maintenance cost following plant degradation owing to corrosion effects. However, corrosion rates are still high in specific areas of piping and process equipment. The aim of this paper is to present a methodology based on semi-quantitative RBI modeling according to regulations by API and recent EN standards, adopting a family of linear regression forecasting models that depict the yearly corrosion rate (per corrosion loop) of a hydrogen production steam reforming unit; this is done under different operating conditions (e.g., temperature, pressure, and fluid speed), metallurgy and other related physicochemical variables. The model is based on the examination of both ultrasonic wall thinning measurements and the examination of quantitative crosslinking total corrosion effects along with the physicochemical properties prevailing in different plant corrosion loops. The outcome of the regression analysis is an expansive family of multivariable equations describing, with a defined accuracy, the yearly corrosion rate and associated lifespan forecast per corrosion loop, and per examined part. These equations were further utilized in a custom-made database that can be used as an additional loss prevention tool by the hydrogen production unit management team. Evaluation results regarding the tool efficiency are presented in the following of this paper.     

基于覆岩裂隙带发育高度的走向高抽巷合理位置确定

为确定大采高综采面高抽巷的合理位置,以李村煤矿1303工作面为研究背景,采用理论分析、数值模拟及现场监测等研究方法,对1303工作面覆岩裂隙发育特征、高抽巷空间位置对其围岩稳定性与抽采效果的影响规律进行系统研究。研究结果表明:高抽巷宜布置在覆岩裂隙发育区,远离回风巷道采动应力影响的位置;1303工作面覆岩破坏范围随推进距离增加,呈现先急剧增大后趋于稳定的趋势,工作面推进距离为300 m时,裂隙带高度稳定在50 m左右,形成瓦斯抽采的优势通道;高抽巷距离煤层顶板、回风巷越近,越易失稳,不利于长期抽采,综合考虑高抽巷不同位置时的瓦斯抽采效率及围岩稳定性,确定其合理位置分别是距离回风巷平距为35 m,垂距为45 m;结合现场瓦斯浓度监测结果,得出上隅角、工作面、回风巷瓦斯浓度最大值分别为0.42%,0.24%,0.33%,远低于瓦斯超限标准1%,进一步证明高抽巷层位的合理布置,可以提高瓦斯抽采效果。

Reaction hazard and mechanism study of H2O2 oxidation of 2-butanol to methyl ethyl ketone using DSC,Phi-TEC II and GC-MS

Methyl ethyl ketone (MEK) oxidation via H₂O₂ with tungsten-based polyoxometalate catalysts has gained much attention with an ever-growing body of knowledge focusing on the development of environmentally benign processes in chemical industry. In this study, two calorimetry techniques, differential scanning calorimetry (DSC) and Phi-TEC II adiabatic calorimetry, were employed to analyze the thermal hazards associated with the 2-butanol oxidation reaction system. Hydrogen peroxide was the oxidant and a tungsten-based polyoxometalate as the catalyst. Gas chromatography-mass spectrometry was used for identification of the organic products. Important thermal kinetic data were obtained including “onset” temperature, heat of reaction, adiabatic temperature rise and self-heat rate. From DSC results, three exothermic peaks were detected with a total heat generation of approximately 1.26 kJ/g sufficiently to induce a thermal runaway. Possible reaction pathway for three stages were proposed based on both DSC and GC-MS results. One exotherm was detected by Phi-TEC II calorimeter and the pressure versus temperature profile together with the DSC and GC-MS data demonstrate the complexity of 2-butanol reaction system under both thermal screening and adiabatic conditions.

Settle3D软件在半填半挖黄土路基变形分析中的应用*

为揭示半填半挖黄土路基的变形规律及其影响因素,为高填方黄土路基稳定性的评估提供科学依据。以国道G310典型半填半挖黄土路基为例,运用Settle3D软件对不同工况条件下的黄土路基进行精确建模与系统分析。结果表明:自然条件下路基左右侧沉降量差别不大,而降雨条件下原状黄土侧的沉降大于压实黄土侧的沉降,土层交界处沉降差异显著;降雨条件下中心点的沉降曲线在原填土交界处发生转折,表明压实效果显著;各施工阶段间沉降量差值呈非线性减小趋势,但降雨条件下的稳定时间更长。因此施工中控制路基压实度和采取合理的路基防水排水措施非常重要。

瓦斯抽采钻孔反循环气力排屑数值模拟

反循环气力排屑是顺层钻孔的新技术,可以提高瓦斯抽采钻孔的成孔深度与成孔率,采用CFD-DEM耦合方法对瓦斯抽采钻孔反循环气力排屑过程进行数值模拟,研究了排屑气速、煤屑生成量对气力排屑性能和气力排屑系统压降的影响。研究结果表明:排屑气速较低时,煤屑在重力的作用下在钻杆内堆积,易导致钻杆堵塞,为保证顺利排屑,需要较大的排屑气速;随着煤屑生成量的增大,对气力排屑性能影响不大,但钻杆内煤屑的体积分数增大,煤屑-煤屑,煤屑-钻杆之间的碰撞加剧;气力排屑系统的压降与排屑气速、煤屑生成量均呈正相关,综合考虑能耗因素,在保证顺利排屑的前提下,应选择合适的排屑气速。
