摘要
At present, the methods for sulfur solubility testing of high-sulfur natural gas generally use laboratory proportioning gas samples and then connect equipment to test the sulfur solubility of the gas samples based on the adsorption deposition mechanism. However, these testing methods generally have the following problems: (1) The equipment used in these test methods has safety hazards such as leakage at pipe and valve connections. (2) The sulfur solubility of real gas samples cannot be measured directly. (3) The equipment is difficult to clean, and it is especially difficult to clean the sulfur deposited at pipe elbows and valve connections. This will lead to low sulfur solubility test results. (4) The thermal insulation performance during the test process is not good, and temperature changes have a great impact on gas volume measurement. In order to solve the above problems, a testing method and comprehensive experimental device for the solubility of elemental sulfur in high-sulfur natural gas were established. This test method wraps the entire experimental device with a metal shell, which has good safety and thermal insulation performance, and it uses customized pipeline connections, which have high flushing efficiency, less sulfur deposition, and more accurate experimental results. The upgraded filtration system can directly measure the sulfur dissolution of real gas samples, and a CS2 solution recovery process is added to reduce the risk of leakage and environmental pollution. This method and equipment were used to test the elemental sulfur solubility determination of real gas samples from a high-sulfur gas well. The research results show that the solubility of elemental sulfur is related to temperature, pressure, and H2S concentration and increases with the increase in temperature, pressure, and H2S concentration. Compared with the previous method, this method has less residual sulfur during the test process, the measured sulfur solubility is 2.13% greater, and the test results are more accurate and reliable. This research result provides important basic data support for accurately measuring the elemental sulfur solubility of real gas samples in high-sulfur gas reservoirs and dealing with sulfur deposition problems.
