The invention discloses a
system for simplifying
coal-to-
methanol production by adjusting a carbon-
hydrogen ratio through
hydrogen and a working method of the
system, belonging to the technical field of
coal chemical industry. The
system mainly comprises a
coal preparation unit, a
coal gasification unit, a carbon-
hydrogen ratio adjusting unit, a synthesis
gas cooling unit, a low-temperature
methanol washing unit, a unit for preparing
methanol or
methane from synthesis gas, a
water treatment unit, a power generation unit, an electrolytic
hydrogen production unit, a hydrogen collection unit, an
oxygen collection unit, an
air separation unit and a
sulfur recovery unit. According to the invention, hydrogen obtained by electrolytic
hydrogen production of
renewable energy is used for adjusting the carbon-hydrogen ratio of the synthesis gas of the
coal gasification unit and is directly used for preparing methanol or
methane from the synthesis gas, and a conversion unit is not needed, so the load of the system is reduced, and operation cost is reduced; low-temperature
waste heat of the
coal gasification and synthesis
gas cooling units is adopted for power generation,
electric energy is provided for electrolytic
hydrogen production, and extra power input is not needed, so
energy consumption and production cost are reduced; and
pure oxygen generated in an electrolytic hydrogen production process is used for the coal gasification unit, so the load of the
air separation unit of the system is reduced, and production and operation cost is reduced.
