This part of nitrogen is also injected into the large system circulation of the reduction gas of the vertical furnace. In the existing vertical furnace process, H 2 O is condensed and taken out through the drainage system, CO 2 With the CO2 capture system, the captured CO2 is directly discharged into the atmosphere through the chimney, while the N2 in the reduced cycle gas is 2 There is no good collection and treatment method, so the only option is to enrich and circulate the gas in the system or to release or burn the circulating gas. Summary of the invention

[0003] In view of the deficiencies in the prior art, the present invention provides a hydrogen-based vertical furnace carbon dioxide utilization process, which solves the problems raised in the above-mentioned background technology.

[0004] To solve the above technical problems, according to one aspect of the present invention, more specifically, a hydrogen-based vertical furnace carbon dioxide utilization process, comprising a gas treatment tower system, a process gas loop, a process gas compressor, a thermal oxidation carbon capture device, a carbon dioxide purification device and a storage tank, characterized in that the gas treatment tower system: is used to cool and dedust the gas passing through the top of the hydrogen-based vertical furnace;

[0008] Carbon dioxide purification: used to purify the captured carbon dioxide;

[0009] Storage tank: Stores purified carbon dioxide and delivers carbon dioxide to the nitrogen system.

[0010] Furthermore, the improvement of the process gas circulation inside the gas-based vertical furnace comprises the following steps;

[0011] S1. introducing the process gas generated by the hydrogen-based vertical furnace into the gas treatment tower system, and using the process gas loop in the gas treatment tower system to transmit the process gas;

[0012] S2, pressurizing the gas in the loop by a process gas compressor;

[0013] S3, capturing carbon dioxide from process gas in the loop, purifying the carbon dioxide, and storing it in a storage tank;

[0014] S4. The carbon dioxide in the storage tank is transported to the nitrogen system at the top of the vertical furnace, the nitrogen purge systems of each circuit, and the compressor gas seal nitrogen system, thereby completing the transformation of the circulating process gas circuit.

[0015] Furthermore, the purity of the carbon dioxide delivered by the storage tank is likely to affect the circulation of the original nitrogen equipment. Therefore, it is necessary to detect the purity of the carbon dioxide purification, and the calculation formula is:

[0016]

[0018] Furthermore, in S1, a portion of the gas in the process gas loop enters the heating furnace for combustion.

[0019] Furthermore, in S3, after carbon dioxide in the process gas is captured, it is discharged to the outside through a chimney provided in the equipment.

[0020] Furthermore, in S3, an external reserved port is added in the carbon dioxide purification process to expand the carbon dioxide storage tank to facilitate subsequent liquefaction and use by back-end users.

[0021] The beneficial effects of the hydrogen-based vertical furnace carbon dioxide utilization process of the present invention are:

[0022] After capturing carbon dioxide, the present invention purifies and pressurizes the thermally oxidized carbon, and allows the carbon dioxide gas to pass into the existing nitrogen pipeline (mainly the nitrogen system at the top of the vertical furnace, the nitrogen systems for purging each loop, the nitrogen system for gas sealing of the compressor, etc.). After the original nitrogen is replaced by carbon dioxide, the carbon dioxide that can be captured in the vertical furnace cycle increases, and the nitrogen that cannot be collected decreases, so that the control and use of the entire gas circuit are changed, and the working efficiency of the hydrogen-based vertical furnace is increased. At the same time, the present invention optimizes the reduction loop tail gas combustion control in the heating furnace combustion control, adds nitrogen-assisted combustion control, and adds safety SIS interlocking control.
