The invention belongs to the technical field of
petroleum processing, and relates to a flash
distillation washing method for the atmospheric and
vacuum distillation of
crude oil. The method comprises the following steps: carrying out heat exchange on
petroleum dehydrated
crude oil, so that light components are vaporized, then feeding oil gas into a flash
distillation washing
tower through a pipeline to carry out flash
distillation, so that light and heavy components of the oil gas are separated; taking flash distillated oil gas carrying the heavy components and part of second side
cut distillate oil from an atmospheric
tower as washing oil, carrying out reverse contact on the washing oil on packing in the flash distillation washing
tower to carry out washing and
mass transfer separation, so that flash top oil gas escapes from the top of the flash distillation washing tower and then enters an upper gas-
phase space of a second side
cut oil extraction plate of the atmospheric tower, and heavy-component washing oil is extracted from an oil collecting tank of the flash distillation washing tower and then automatically flows to places above and below a third side
cut extraction plate of the atmospheric tower; after un-vaporized flash bottom oil is pumped out by using a pump from the bottom of the flash washing tower, carrying out heat exchange on the un-vaporized flash bottom oil and heating the un-vaporized flash bottom oil by using an atmospheric furnace, and then feeding the un-vaporized flash bottom oil into the atmospheric tower so as to separate out atmospheric overhead oil, atmospheric
lateral line distillate oil and atmospheric heavy oil through distillation. The method disclosed by the invention is reasonable in process
route, good in adaptability, good in
energy conservation, low in investment, convenient to control, and friendly in production environment.
