Description

Technical Field

[0001] The present invention relates to the technical field of hydrogen production by ammonia decomposition, and specifically, to a fuel cell power generation system and method based on a multi-stage solid-state ammonia storage hydrogen production module, and in particular, to a fuel cell power generation system based on a multi-stage solid-state ammonia storage coupled hydrogen production integrated module and its operation method. Background Art

[0002] Traditional hydrogen production methods can be roughly divided into methods such as water electrolysis hydrogen production and ammonia decomposition hydrogen production. At present, a large number of research results have been obtained in water electrolysis hydrogen production. Considering that the hydrogen content of liquid ammonia is more than 60% higher than that of liquid hydrogen, and in terms of transportation, liquid ammonia is easy to store, does not undergo hydrogen embrittlement, and has an excellent safety record in the use of ammonia, ammonia is regarded as an important energy carrier for hydrogen.

[0003] In addition, the mass hydrogen storage density of solid ammonia is equivalent to that of liquid ammonia, but it can effectively reduce the risk of explosion caused by flashing due to vibration or temperature and pressure changes during the transportation of high-pressure liquid ammonia.

[0004] Solid ammonia is an effective way to use hydrogen in the transportation field at present. For example, Patent CN102782921A proposes a device for storing ammonia based on solid materials and generating hydrogen, which is combined with a low-temperature fuel cell to form a coupled system of ammonia storage - hydrogen production - hydrogen utilization. This patent demonstrates the feasibility of solid-state ammonia storage hydrogen production, but ignores the problem that the ammonia decomposition efficiency is only 10 - 20% under large flow conditions. How to expand the flow application range of solid-state ammonia storage hydrogen production and extend its application scenarios is an important research topic. In addition, when the ammonia decomposition efficiency is low, how to recycle the high-concentration ammonia gas in the decomposed gas to improve the economy of the whole system is also a problem that needs to be solved.

[0014] According to the fuel cell power generation method based on the multi-stage solid-state ammonia storage and hydrogen production module provided by the present invention, using the fuel cell power generation device based on the multi-stage solid-state ammonia storage and hydrogen production module, the following steps are included: Step 1: Start the standby power supply to supply power to the electric heating component for heating; Step 2: Determine whether the gas temperature in the electric heating component is higher than the preset temperature value.

If the ammonia concentration is lower than the set value, after adsorbing the ammonia or other impurities in the nitrogen separator, it flows into the external hydrogen purifier after being heated by the heat exchanger to drive the hydrogen to flow out. If the ammonia concentration is higher than the set value, it is returned to the solid-state ammonia storage module; Step 12: When the ammonia storage amount in the first integrated solid-state ammonia storage and hydrogen production module is insufficient, switch to the second integrated solid-state ammonia storage and hydrogen production module to supply hydrogen to the fuel cell.

[0015] Step 13: Real-time detect the operating pressures of the first integrated solid-state ammonia storage and hydrogen production module and the second integrated solid-state ammonia storage and hydrogen production module.

[0016] According to the fuel cell power generation method based on a multi-stage solid-state ammonia storage and hydrogen production module provided by the present invention, using the fuel cell power generation device based on the multi-stage solid-state ammonia storage and hydrogen production module, the following steps are included: Step 1: Start the standby power supply to supply power to the electric heating component for heating; Step 2: Determine whether the gas temperature in the electric heating component is higher than the preset temperature value.

Step 5: Open the valve connecting the electric heating component to the second integrated solid ammonia storage and hydrogen production module. Step 6: The ammonia gas flowing out of the solid ammonia storage modules of the first and the second integrated solid ammonia storage and hydrogen production modules passes through the ammonia decomposition and hydrogen production module and an external hydrogen purifier to obtain purified hydrogen and residual gas containing ammonia and nitrogen.

[0017] Compared with the prior art, the present invention has the following beneficial effects: 1. The present invention can achieve efficient and reliable supply under different hydrogen demand flows. Based on the characteristic that the hydrogen production efficiency by ammonia decomposition is strongly correlated with the hydrogen demand flow, the relationship among the hydrogen production flow, operating temperature, and ammonia desorption flow of the solid-state ammonia storage coupled hydrogen production integrated module obtained through experiments is used to dynamically adjust the valve opening at the outlet of the solid-state ammonia storage module and control the operation of multiple solid-state ammonia storage coupled hydrogen production integrated modules. When the hydrogen flow demand of the fuel cell is less than the maximum hydrogen production flow of the first or second solid-state ammonia storage coupled hydrogen production integrated module, the first or second solid-state ammonia storage coupled hydrogen production integrated module is controlled to produce hydrogen alternately. Otherwise, the first and second solid-state ammonia storage coupled hydrogen production integrated modules are controlled to produce hydrogen together, thereby achieving efficient and reliable supply under different hydrogen demand flows.

[0018] 2. The present invention can improve the ammonia utilization rate. Under large-flow conditions, when the ammonia decomposition rate is low, a mixed gas containing ammonia and nitrogen that has not been fully decomposed will flow out of the ammonia decomposition and hydrogen production module at the outlet of the first solid-state ammonia storage coupled hydrogen production integrated module. These mixed gases are guided to the second solid-state ammonia storage coupled hydrogen production integrated module for storage, avoiding reflux to the first solid-state ammonia storage coupled hydrogen production integrated module, thereby effectively reducing the internal pressure of the container, preventing the reverse reaction of the ammonia decomposition reaction, improving the ammonia utilization rate, and optimizing the hydrogen production efficiency of the overall system. In addition, the ammonia concentration in the mixed gas flowing out of the solid-state ammonia storage module of the first solid-state ammonia storage coupled hydrogen production integrated module is analyzed by a continuous gas component analyzer to determine whether to reflux to the solid-state ammonia storage module to complete the ammonia adsorption process, further improving the ammonia utilization rate.

[0019] 3. The present invention can effectively improve the overall energy efficiency of the system. First, based on the heat utilization characteristics of different channels in multiple solid-state ammonia storage coupled hydrogen production integrated modules, the present invention realizes cascaded energy utilization using the high-temperature tail gas of the fuel cell. After passing through the ammonia decomposer, the high-temperature waste gas of the fuel cell becomes medium-temperature waste gas, and the medium-temperature waste gas is continued to be used for ammonia desorption of solid-state ammonia storage, thereby effectively improving the waste heat utilization efficiency of the system. Second, the present invention is provided with a heat exchanger to cool the ammonia and nitrogen retention gas flowing into the solid-state ammonia storage module, and at the same time heat the nitrogen and inert gas flowing out of the solid-state ammonia storage module, effectively utilizing the waste heat of the retention gas, thereby effectively improving the overall energy efficiency of the system. BRIEF DESCRIPTION OF THE DRAWINGS

[0020] Other features, objects, and advantages of the present invention will become more apparent by reading the following detailed description of non-limiting embodiments with reference to the accompanying drawings: Figure 1 It is a schematic diagram of the overall structure of the present invention; Figure 2Among them, (a) is a schematic structural diagram of the integrated module for solid-state ammonia storage and hydrogen production coupling in the present invention; (b) is a schematic structural diagram of the solid-state ammonia storage module in the present invention.

The following embodiments will help those skilled in the art to further understand the present invention, but do not limit the present invention in any form. It should be noted that for those of ordinary skill in the art, without departing from the concept of the present invention, several changes and improvements can still be made. These all belong to the protection scope of the present invention.

[0022] The present invention discloses a fuel cell power generation system based on a multi-stage solid-state ammonia storage and hydrogen production coupling integrated module and its operation method. The system mainly includes the first integrated module for solid-state ammonia storage and hydrogen production coupling 1, the second integrated module for solid-state ammonia storage and hydrogen production coupling 2, a fuel cell 3, etc. By switching the operation of multiple solid-state ammonia storage and hydrogen production coupling integrated modules, the high-efficiency recycling of high-concentration ammonia gas in the decomposed gas under large-flow conditions is realized, and the high-efficiency and stable supply of hydrogen fuel under different flow conditions is realized. The system design can meet the safe and efficient hydrogen use requirements of hydrogen energy power generation systems in scenarios such as vehicles, ships, and distributed power stations.

[0023] According to the fuel cell power generation system based on the multi-stage solid-state ammonia hydrogen production module provided by the present invention, see Figure 1 and Figure 2, including components such as the first integrated solid-state ammonia storage and hydrogen production module 1, the second integrated solid-state ammonia storage and hydrogen production module 2, fuel cell 3, electric heating component 4, backup power supply 5, power-consuming component 6, continuous gas component analyzer 7, gas buffer 8, pressure gauge 9, gas storage tank 10, valves, external hydrogen purifier 12, nitrogen separator 13, heat exchanger 14, etc.

[0024] As Figure 2 shown, the integrated solid-state ammonia storage and hydrogen production module includes a high-temperature waste gas heat exchange channel 101, an ammonia decomposition and hydrogen production module 102, and a solid-state ammonia storage module 103, in a "toilet paper" shape. Along the radial direction pointing to the axis, the high-temperature waste gas heat exchange channel 101, the ammonia decomposition and hydrogen production module 102, the high-temperature waste gas heat exchange channel 101, and the solid-state ammonia storage module 103 are arranged in sequence, which can realize the efficient coupling process of ammonia desorption and ammonia decomposition in the integrated solid-state ammonia storage and hydrogen production module, and can also effectively reduce the utilization space required for ammonia storage and hydrogen production.

[0025] The first integrated solid-state ammonia storage and hydrogen production module 1 and the second integrated solid-state ammonia storage and hydrogen production module 2 need high-temperature waste gas to heat them to achieve ammonia desorption and ammonia decomposition. Since the temperature required by the solid-state ammonia storage module 103 is lower than that required by the ammonia decomposition and hydrogen production module 102, the high-temperature waste gas in the high-temperature waste gas heat exchange channel 101 first heats the ammonia decomposition and hydrogen production module 102, and then heats the solid-state ammonia storage module 103.

[0026] In order to efficiently and stably meet the hydrogen flow required by the fuel cell 3, first, it is judged whether the required hydrogen flow is less than the maximum hydrogen production flow of the first integrated solid-state ammonia storage and hydrogen production module 1. If so, the first integrated solid-state ammonia storage and hydrogen production module 1 and the second integrated solid-state ammonia storage and hydrogen production module 2 take turns to produce hydrogen. If not, they produce hydrogen together.

[0027] When the first integrated solid-state ammonia storage and hydrogen production module 1 and the second integrated solid-state ammonia storage and hydrogen production module 2 take turns to produce hydrogen, taking the first integrated solid-state ammonia storage and hydrogen production module 1 as the main hydrogen production component and the second integrated solid-state ammonia storage and hydrogen production module 2 as the auxiliary hydrogen production component as an example. In the first integrated solid-state ammonia storage and hydrogen production module 1, according to the relationship between the hydrogen production flow, operating temperature, and ammonia desorption flow obtained through experiments, the valve opening is adjusted to obtain the required ammonia flow. The outflowing ammonia is processed by the ammonia decomposition and hydrogen production module 102 and the external hydrogen purifier 12 to obtain purified hydrogen and the retained gas containing ammonia and nitrogen. The purified hydrogen flows into the gas buffer 8 driven by nitrogen or inert gas, and then enters the fuel cell 3 to generate electricity to provide electrical energy for the power-consuming component.

[0028] According to the tail gas temperature of the fuel cell 3, the connection situation between the electric heating component 4 and the high-temperature waste gas heat exchange channel 101 is adjusted in a timely manner to ensure that the temperature of the first integrated solid ammonia storage and hydrogen production module 1 meets the operation requirements. At the same time, the ammonia concentration in the retained gas is monitored by the continuous gas component analyzer 7. If the concentration is lower than the set value, its flow direction is adjusted to the gas storage tank 10. Otherwise, the retained gas first passes through the heat exchanger 14 to cool down and then flows into the solid ammonia storage module 103 of the second integrated solid ammonia storage and hydrogen production module 2. In addition, the low-temperature residual cold channel is connected to the high-temperature waste gas heat exchange channel 101 in the second integrated solid ammonia storage and hydrogen production module 2, thereby reducing the temperature of the solid ammonia storage module 103 of the second integrated solid ammonia storage and hydrogen production module 2 to improve the ammonia adsorption efficiency. When the retained gas after the ammonia adsorption process flows out of the solid ammonia storage module 103 of the second integrated solid ammonia storage and hydrogen production module 2, the ammonia concentration is further analyzed by the continuous gas component analyzer 7. If it is lower than the set value, the nitrogen separated by the nitrogen separator 13 is heated up by the heat exchanger 14 and then flows into the external hydrogen purifier 12 to drive the hydrogen to flow into the fuel cell 3. Otherwise, the retained gas after the ammonia adsorption process flows back to the solid ammonia storage module 103 of the second integrated solid ammonia storage and hydrogen production module 2 for further ammonia adsorption process. In this process, the inert gas stream heated by the heat exchanger flows into the external hydrogen purifier 12 to drive the hydrogen to flow out.

[0029] When the first integrated solid ammonia storage and hydrogen production module 1 and the second integrated solid ammonia storage and hydrogen production module 2 jointly produce hydrogen, first, the valve connecting the electric heating component 4 and the second integrated solid ammonia storage and hydrogen production module 2 is opened. Then, the ammonia flowing out of the solid ammonia storage modules 103 of the first integrated solid ammonia storage and hydrogen production module 1 and the second integrated solid ammonia storage and hydrogen production module 2 is processed by the ammonia decomposition hydrogen production module 102 and the external hydrogen purifier 12 to obtain purified hydrogen and retained gas containing ammonia and nitrogen. Subsequently, the purified hydrogen is driven by the inert gas and sequentially flows through the gas buffer 8 and the valve into the fuel cell 3 to realize the power generation process, thereby providing the required electric energy for the electrical component 6.

[0030] The high-temperature waste gas heat exchange channel 101 is composed of multiple channels, which respectively provide heat for the ammonia decomposition hydrogen production module 102 and the solid ammonia storage module 103, thereby realizing the ammonia decomposition and ammonia desorption processes. The ammonia decomposition hydrogen production module 102 is used to realize ammonia decomposition, and the wall surface of the ammonia decomposition hydrogen production module is coated with a high-efficiency ammonia decomposition hydrogen production catalyst.

[0031] A plurality of ammonia flow channels are designed in the solid ammonia storage module 103, which are evenly distributed along the radial direction pointing to the axis, and the diameters of the channels along this direction increase in sequence, such as Figure 2As shown, d1 < d2 < d3. The advantage of this design is that it can achieve uniform ammonia desorption of the solid ammonia storage metal ammine complex material in the solid ammonia storage module 103 and improve the heat exchange efficiency. The reason is that the heat of the high-temperature exhaust gas heat exchange channel 101 is transmitted along the radial direction pointing to the axis of the solid ammonia storage module 103. Due to the existence of the thermal resistance of the solid ammonia storage metal ammine complex material and the thermal resistance of the ammonia flow channels, the temperature of the outer wall surface of the solid ammonia storage module 103 is higher than that at the axis, resulting in a higher ammonia desorption rate on the outer wall surface than at the axis. By setting the diameters of the ammonia pores in the radial direction pointing to the axis to increase successively, it is possible to avoid the phenomenon that the ammonia in the solid ammonia storage metal ammine complex material near the outer wall surface is completely desorbed while the solid ammonia storage metal ammine complex material at the axis has not been completely desorbed. In addition, since the thermal resistance of the solid ammonia storage metal ammine complex material is smaller than the thermal resistance of the ammonia flow channels, by reducing the diameter of the ammonia flow channels near the outer wall surface of the solid ammonia storage module 103, the thermal resistance of heat transfer can be effectively reduced, and efficient heat exchange can be achieved on the premise of ensuring the ammonia desorption rate.

[0032] Among them, the cross-sectional shape of the ammonia flow channels in the solid ammonia storage module 103 can be diamond-shaped, circular, oval, rectangular, drop-shaped or other shapes, and the cross-sectional shape of the ammonia flow channels will not significantly affect its beneficial effects.

[0033] The heat exchanger 14 aims to cool the stagnant gas flowing into the solid ammonia storage module 103 to improve the ammonia adsorption efficiency and reduce the demand for low-temperature residual cold; it also aims to increase the temperature of the nitrogen or inert gas entering the external hydrogen purifier 12 to avoid the temperature of the hydrogen / nitrogen / inert gas mixture flowing into the fuel cell 3 being too low, which affects the stable operation of the fuel cell 3.

[0034] The fuel cell 3 is a fuel cell 3 that can provide high-temperature tail gas, such as a solid oxide fuel cell (SOFC), a high-temperature proton exchange membrane fuel cell (HT-PEMFC), and an alkaline fuel cell (AFC), etc.

[0035] According to the fuel cell power generation method based on the multi-stage solid ammonia storage coupled hydrogen production integrated module provided by the present invention, the fuel cell device based on the multi-stage solid ammonia storage coupled hydrogen production integrated module is adopted. This operation method is applicable to the situation where the hydrogen flow demand of the fuel cell 3 is less than the maximum hydrogen production flow of the first solid ammonia storage coupled hydrogen production integrated module 1 or the second solid ammonia storage coupled hydrogen production integrated module 2, and the two solid ammonia storage coupled hydrogen production integrated modules take turns to produce hydrogen. The specific steps are as follows: Step 1: Start the standby power supply 5 to supply power to the electric heating component 4 for heating.

[0036] Step 2: Determine whether the gas temperature in the electric heating component 4 is higher than the set temperature value. If so, open the valve connecting the electric heating component 4 to the fuel cell 3 to preheat the latter; otherwise, continue heating.

[0037] Step 3: Determine whether the temperature of the fuel cell 3 meets the operating temperature requirement. If so, close the valve connecting the electric heating component 4 to the fuel cell 3 and open the valve connecting the electric heating component 4 to the integrated solid ammonia storage and hydrogen production module I; otherwise, continue heating.

[0038] Step 4: Obtain the hydrogen flow demand of the fuel cell 3 and the current operating temperature of the first integrated solid ammonia storage and hydrogen production module 1.

[0039] Step 5: According to the relationship between the hydrogen production flow - operating temperature - ammonia desorption flow of the solid ammonia storage module 103 in the first integrated solid ammonia storage and hydrogen production module 1 obtained through experiments, adjust the valve opening of the outlet of the solid ammonia storage module 103 in the first integrated solid ammonia storage and hydrogen production module 1 and the valve opening of the high-temperature waste gas outlet of the fuel cell 3 to obtain the required ammonia flow.

[0040] Step 6: The ammonia flowing out of the solid ammonia storage module 103 of the first integrated solid ammonia storage and hydrogen production module 1 passes through the ammonia decomposition and hydrogen production module 102 and the external hydrogen purifier 12 to obtain purified hydrogen and the retained gas containing ammonia and nitrogen.

[0041] Step 7: The purified hydrogen is driven by nitrogen or inert gas and successively passes through the gas buffer 8 and the valve and flows into the fuel cell 3 to realize the power generation process and provide electric energy for the electrical component 6.

[0042] Step 8: Determine whether the tail gas temperature of the fuel cell 3 is higher than the set temperature. If so, close the valve connecting the electric heating component 4 to the first integrated solid ammonia storage and hydrogen production module 1 and open the valve connecting the fuel cell 3 to the first integrated solid ammonia storage and hydrogen production module 1 to introduce the high-temperature waste gas into the high-temperature waste gas heat exchange channel 101. Otherwise, continue to use the electric heating component 4 to heat the first integrated solid ammonia storage and hydrogen production module 1.

[0043] Step 9: Detect the ammonia concentration of the retained gas containing ammonia and nitrogen through the continuous gas component analyzer 7. If the ammonia concentration is lower than the set value, the gas flows through the heat exchanger 14 and into the gas storage tank 10; otherwise, it flows through the heat exchanger 14 to cool down and then into the solid ammonia storage module 103 of the second integrated solid ammonia storage and hydrogen production module 2 for ammonia adsorption.

[0044] Step 10: Connect the low-temperature waste heat channel to the high-temperature exhaust gas heat exchange channel of the second integrated solid-state ammonia storage and hydrogen production module 2 for heat exchange, reducing the temperature of the solid-state ammonia storage module 103 of the second integrated solid-state ammonia storage and hydrogen production module 2 and improving the ammonia adsorption efficiency.

[0045] Step 11: After the solid-state ammonia storage module 103 of the second integrated solid-state ammonia storage and hydrogen production module 2 adsorbs ammonia in the retained gas, the retained gas is mainly nitrogen. Then, the ammonia concentration in the retained gas flowing out of the solid-state ammonia storage module 103 is detected by the continuous gas component analyzer 7. If the ammonia concentration is lower than the set value, after adsorbing residual ammonia or other impurities through the nitrogen separator 13, it flows into the external hydrogen purifier 12 after being heated up by the heat exchanger 14, driving the rapid outflow of hydrogen. Otherwise, it is refluxed to the solid-state ammonia storage module 103.

[0046] Step 12: When the ammonia storage amount in the first integrated solid-state ammonia storage and hydrogen production module 1 is insufficient, switch to the second integrated solid-state ammonia storage and hydrogen production module 2 to supply hydrogen to the fuel cell 3.

[0047] Step 13: Continuously detect the operating pressure of the first integrated solid-state ammonia storage and hydrogen production module 1 and the second integrated solid-state ammonia storage and hydrogen production module 2.

The specific steps are as follows: Step 1: Start the standby power supply 5 to supply power to the electric heating component 4 for heating.

[0051] Step 2: Determine whether the gas temperature in the electric heating component 4 is higher than the set temperature value. If so, open the valve connecting the electric heating component 4 to the fuel cell 3 to preheat the latter. Otherwise, continue heating.

[0052] Step 3: Determine whether the temperature of the fuel cell 3 meets the operating temperature requirement. If so, close the valve connecting the electric heating component 4 to the fuel cell 3 and open the valve connecting the electric heating component 4 to the integrated solid ammonia storage and hydrogen production module I. Otherwise, continue heating.

[0053] Step 4: Obtain the hydrogen flow demand of the fuel cell 3 and the current operating temperature of the first integrated solid ammonia storage and hydrogen production module 1. If the current hydrogen flow demand is greater than the maximum hydrogen production flow of the first integrated solid ammonia storage and hydrogen production module 1, use the first integrated solid ammonia storage and hydrogen production module 1 and the second integrated solid ammonia storage and hydrogen production module 2 to produce hydrogen together.

[0054] Step 5: Open the valve connecting the electric heating component 4 to the integrated solid ammonia storage and hydrogen production module II.

[0055] Step 6: The ammonia flowing out of the solid ammonia storage module 103 of the first integrated solid ammonia storage and hydrogen production module 1 and the second integrated solid ammonia storage and hydrogen production module 2 passes through the ammonia decomposition and hydrogen production module 102 and the external hydrogen purifier 12 to obtain purified hydrogen and the retained gas containing ammonia and nitrogen.

[0056] Step 7: The purified hydrogen flows through the gas buffer 8 and the valve successively under the drive of the inert gas and then into the fuel cell 3 to realize the power generation process and provide electric energy for the electrical component 6.

[0057] Step 8: Determine whether the tail gas temperature of the fuel cell 3 is higher than the set temperature. If so, close the valve connecting the electric heating component 4 to the first integrated solid ammonia storage and hydrogen production module 1 and the second integrated solid ammonia storage and hydrogen production module 2, and open the valve connecting the fuel cell 3 to the first integrated solid ammonia storage and hydrogen production module 1 and the second integrated solid ammonia storage and hydrogen production module 2 to pass the high-temperature waste gas into the high-temperature waste gas heat exchange channel 101. Otherwise, continue to use the electric heating component 4 to heat the first integrated solid ammonia storage and hydrogen production module 1 and the second integrated solid ammonia storage and hydrogen production module 2.

[0058] Step 9: Real-time detect the operating pressure of the first integrated solid ammonia storage and hydrogen production module 1 and the second integrated solid ammonia storage and hydrogen production module 2. When its value exceeds the maximum allowable pressure, open the valve of the gas storage tank 10 to divert the excess gas flow to the gas storage tank 10.

[0059] Step 10: Real-time detect the operating pressure of the gas storage tank 10. When its value exceeds the maximum allowable pressure, discharge it to the tail gas treatment system.

[0060] Step 11: Set a diversion channel at the gas buffer 8 and the gas storage tank 10 for quickly evacuating flammable and explosive gases in case of emergency.

[0061] Based on this, the present invention proposes a fuel cell power generation system and its operation method for a multi-stage solid-state ammonia storage coupled with hydrogen production integrated module.
