Technology for preparing natural gas through self-heating catalytic gasification of fire coal, and system thereof

Abstract

The invention provides a technology for preparing natural gas through self-heating catalytic gasification of fire coal, and a system thereof. Coal, a catalyst and a gasifying agent are supplied to a gasifying apparatus, wherein the gasifying agent is supplied to the gasifying apparatus in a dispersion mode from different positions of the gasifying apparatus, and oxygen is introduced into the gasifying apparatus. The technology for preparing the natural gas through self-heating catalytic gasification of fire coal, which allows heat required by a catalytic gasifying reaction to be provided in a fire coal self-heating mode, has the characteristics of no installation of a heating device, simplicity, good economy, and realization of single-furnace heat coupling, and the system has a high efficiency; and additionally, the gasifying agent is supplied to the gasifying apparatus in a dispersion mode, so heat required by the reaction is supplied, the oxygen concentration can be controlled within the specific limits through controlling the full-bed oxygen distribution and adjusting the ratio of steam to oxygen in a distribution plate and a bed in order to avoid a local high-temperature region appearing in the bed, thereby slag bonding can be effectively avoided.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to the technical field of coal catalytic gasification, and more specifically, to a process and a system for producing natural gas through coal catalytic gasification for self-heating by burning coal. Background technique [0002] With the rapid development of the economy and increasingly stringent environmental protection regulations, my country's demand for natural gas, a clean energy source, will grow explosively in the next ten years. Although the production of natural gas has increased, it is far below the growth trend of demand. The contradiction is becoming more and more prominent, and the supply gap is increasing year by year. In view of the characteristics of my country's energy resource status of "rich in coal, low in oil, and lack of gas", the long-term maintenance of coal-based energy consumption structure will not change in the short term. According to the development trend of clean coal technology and the development t...

Problems solved by technology

The technical equipment investment is high, the process is complex, the energy consumption is large, the overall economic efficiency of the process is poor, and the overall efficiency is low

[0007] Existing catalytic gasification processes all use external heat supply, that is, a large amount of superheated steam and circulating part of the product gas carbon monoxide and hydrogen are required to enter the gasifier to generate heat from the methanation reaction to provide the heat required by the system. Cryogenic separation, product Partial oxidation of gas or adding an oxygen-fired oxidation furnace to provide superheated steam and CO, H 2 , the energy consumption of the process is large, the equipment investment is high, the process flow is complicated, the load of the steam superheating system and the heat exchange system is high, and the overall economic efficiency of the process is not good, and the overall efficiency is low.

[0008] The addition of the catalyst can catalyze the combustion reaction and increase the heat release of pulverized coal combustion. At the same time, the added alkali metal catalyst may form a low-temperature eutectic product with the coal minerals under certain process conditions and reaction atmosphere, which will reduce the ash melting point of coal; and The catalytic gasification process requires a high gas-solid contact time, the bed is relatively high, and it is relatively difficult to transfer heat uniformly and quickly in the entire bed area. If the local temperature in the bed is too high, the coal ash particles will stick to each other and slag, resulting in a fluidized state. Not good, in severe cases, it is difficult to discharge slagging, or even lose fluidization, which makes it difficult for the reactor to operate continuously and stably
