ICC - Process Schematic Text: <p>The process under analysis comprises three major sections: (1) Acetylene Production; (2) Carbon Monoxide Separation; (3) Acrylic Acid Production; and (4) Methanol Production.</p><p>Acetylene Production. Natural gas feed and oxygen are preheated and fed to a burner. Part of the methane is burned, while the remainder is cracked to acetylene. The hot gas leaves the reaction chamber, and it is cooled down as it passes through sprays of water. Soot present in the cracked gas is partly removed from the gas by the water quench, with the remainder being removed by a recirculated water wash in a cooling column and an electrofilter. The gaseous outlet is compressed and recovered by selective absorption into N-methylpyrrolidinone (NMP) solvent in the main scrubber. This column off-gas is a crude synthesis gas stream. The acetylene solution is subsequently passed through a stripper, where purified acetylene is obtained as a side stream.</p><p>Carbon Monoxide Separation. The crude synthesis gas is partially treated to remove carbon dioxide and hydrogen from carbon monoxide (CO). The purified CO is then sent to the Acrylic Acid Production section.</p><p>Acrylic Acid Production. Acetylene is absorbed in THF and fed to a multi-tube reactor, where it is reacted with CO, yielding Acrylic Acid in the presence of a mixture of nickel bromide with a cupric bromide as catalyst. The product stream is passed through purification steps, where the acrylic acid is degassed, extracted and distilled to remove THF, acetic acid, water and dimers. </p><p>Methanol Production. The remaining part of crude syngas from acetylene scrubber is mixed with hydrogen from CO separation, compressed and directed to the methanol converter. Methanol is produced from reactions of carbon monoxide and carbon dioxide with hydrogen in the presence of a copper-based catalyst. The effluent is sent to a gas/liquid separator, then liquid stream is directed to two distillation columns, in which light ends and heavy impurities are recovered and methanol is obtained.</p>
