Description

Technical Field

[0001] The present invention relates to the technical field of ship design and manufacturing, and in particular to a SCV wastewater waste heat recovery integrated cold protection system. Background Art

[0002] As greenhouse gas emission requirements become increasingly stringent, the demand for clean energy is also increasing, and the proportion of natural gas (NG) in energy consumption has also shown a trend of substantial growth. Floating storage and regasification units (FSRU) are becoming increasingly popular due to their advantages such as strong flexibility. The regasification system usually uses the heat of seawater or the heat of steam to heat liquefied natural gas (LNG). The method of using the heat of seawater for regasification is limited by the temperature of seawater, and its use is restricted in cold environments; similarly, the method of using the heat of steam for regasification is limited by the capacity of the boiler and the high cost. In cold and extremely cold conditions, it is also possible for FSRU to use a submerged combustion vaporizer (SCV) for vaporization.

[0003] The submerged combustion vaporizer (SCV) produces water during the combustion process, as shown in the following chemical reaction formula: CH4+AIR(0.21%O2+0.79%N2)=CO2+H2O+N2. Condensation process: high-temperature flue gas is sprayed into a 5-25℃ water bath, and the water vapor in the flue gas condenses into liquid and remains in the water bath, which will produce a large amount of wastewater. Therefore, using the submerged combustion vaporizer (SCV) as the regasification device of the FSRU requires solving and utilizing the large amount of wastewater generated during the vaporization process. Summary of the invention

[0004] The technical problem to be solved by the present invention is that when a submerged combustion vaporizer is used as a regasification device of a floating storage regasification device, a large amount of waste water is generated and cannot be treated.

[0005] In order to solve the above technical problems, the technical solution of the present invention is to provide an SCV wastewater waste heat recovery comprehensive cold protection system, including an submerged combustion vaporizer, a wastewater filter and a ballast tank, the submerged combustion vaporizer is connected to the wastewater filter through a pipeline, a heating coil is provided in the ballast tank, the wastewater filter is connected to the heating coil in the ballast tank through a heating pipe, and the end of the heating coil is connected to the outer plate of the ballast tank through a short side pipe and communicated with the outside world.

[0006] Optionally, a temperature sensor is provided in the ballast tank, a temperature control valve is provided on the heating pipe, and the temperature sensor is connected to the temperature control valve.

[0007] Optionally, the temperature control valve is also connected to a sea discharge pipeline.

[0008] Optionally, a check valve is provided on the heating pipe between the temperature control valve and the heating coil.

[0009] Optionally, a purge solenoid valve is provided at the connection between the heating coil and the heating pipe, and the purge solenoid valve is connected to an external air source.

[0010] Optionally, a submerged hydraulic side valve is provided between the heating coil and the side short pipe, a manual hydraulic pump group is provided outside the ballast tank, and the submerged hydraulic side valve is connected to the manual hydraulic pump group through a hydraulic pipe.

[0011] Optionally, the submerged hydraulic side valve is arranged at a position higher than the waterline of the ballast tank.

[0012] Optionally, a submerged check valve is provided between the submerged hydraulic port valve and the heating coil.

[0013] In summary, the SCV wastewater waste heat recovery comprehensive cold protection system of the present invention is used to apply the submerged combustion vaporizer to the floating storage regasification device, and utilize the submerged combustion vaporizer to vaporize the liquefied natural gas into the wastewater generated in the process of natural gas, firstly solve the wastewater discharge problem, and also utilize the waste heat of the wastewater to perform auxiliary heating on the ballast tank under extremely cold conditions, thereby reducing the steam consumption of the ballast tank of the ship under cold conditions, and solving the feasibility of using the submerged combustion vaporizer in the floating storage regasification device.
