Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] The invention relates to the field of boiler desalination and scaling reduction systems, and in particular to a steam boiler desalination and scaling reduction system and an operating method thereof. Background Art
[0002] In the process of heavy oil extraction, hot steam injection is often used for extraction. Oil fields now generally use steam generating equipment such as wet steam boilers and superheated boilers to produce steam. If the boiler water is heavy oil purified wastewater, because it contains a large amount of sodium salts, calcium salts, dissolved silicon and other salts, after the heavy oil purified wastewater enters the boiler, it will be converted into steam in the boiler, which is easy to produce salt precipitation and scaling in the boiler system, causing blockage of the system and affecting normal production, and posing safety hazards.
[0003] Currently available patents all use the salt-containing steam generated by the sewage purification boiler for cleaning, or desalinate the concentrated brine generated by the boiler, which cannot solve the scaling problem of the boiler as a whole. For example, Chinese Patent Publication No. CN103968359A provides "a boiler and a method for producing superheated steam using naturally circulating high-salt feed water"; Chinese Patent Publication No. CN101979917A provides a "natural circulation steam injection boiler and a water circulation method using high-salt softened water as feed water"; Chinese Patent Publication No. CN103968365A provides a "method and device for producing superheated steam using high-salt boiler feed water by staged evaporation"; Chinese Patent Publication No. CN104276614A provides a "method for desalting a direct current steam injection boiler"; Chinese Patent Publication No. CN106610011A provides a "desalting device and a steam desalting device for superheated steam injection boilers in oil fields"; Chinese Patent Publication No. CN104266175A provides a "superheated steam desalting device for superheated boilers for oil field steam injection and a method of using the same", etc., none of which can solve the scaling problem of the boiler as a whole.
[0004] In summary, it is not difficult to find that the prior art has problems of scaling, salting and clogging of the boiler system and its downstream pipelines. Summary of the invention

[0025] In order to solve the problems of scaling, salting out and pipeline blockage in the boiler system and its downstream pipelines in the prior art, the present application provides a steam boiler desalination and scaling reduction system and an operation method thereof.
[0026] The steam boiler desalination and descaling system in the present application includes a boiler, a desalination and descaling device, a heating structure and a pressure boosting device. The desalination and descaling device is located at the upstream position of the boiler, and the steam port of the desalination and descaling device is connected to the steam inlet of the boiler; the heating structure has a separator and a heat exchange return pipeline, and the inlet of the separator is connected to the steam discharge port of the boiler, and the separator is connected to the desalination and descaling device through the heat exchange return pipeline to introduce the high-pressure hot steam generated by the boiler into the desalination and descaling device and heat the purified sewage; the pressure boosting device pressurizes the steam entering the boiler.
[0027] When the steam boiler desalination and descaling system of the above structure is used, the purified sewage is first vaporized and concentrated by the desalination and descaling device 20 before entering the boiler 10. In the desalination and descaling device 20, the purified sewage is converted into vaporized steam and concentrated brine by the heating structure 30. The vaporized steam is discharged from the desalination and descaling device 20 and enters the booster device 70 to be converted from low-pressure steam to high-pressure steam, or condensed to water, and enters the boiler 10 after being pressurized. The concentrated brine is discharged from the desalination and descaling device 20 and then enters the spray drying plant in the entire boiler system for drying, thereby achieving the purpose of desalination and descaling of the purified sewage. In the steam boiler desalination and descaling system, the cooperation of the desalination and descaling device 20 and the heating structure 30 allows the purified sewage to be desalted and descaled before entering the boiler 10, thereby solving the problem of the purified sewage directly entering the boiler 10 and causing scaling inside the boiler 10.
[0028] like Figure 1 As shown, the separator 31 is provided to divert the superheated steam entering the separator 31. Part of the superheated steam is diverted by the separator 31 and discharged to the next process outside the steam boiler desalination and descaling system, and the remaining superheated steam is diverted by the separator 31 through the heat exchange return pipeline 32 to the desalination and descaling device 20 and heats the purified sewage inside the desalination and descaling device 20, thereby vaporizing the purified sewage inside the desalination and descaling device 20.
[0029] Optionally, the boosting device 70 is a steam pump that directly pressurizes the steam or a water pump that condenses the steam into water and then pressurizes the water, or other corresponding devices.
[0030] Specifically, the steam boiler desalination and descaling system further includes a discharge pipeline 40, which is connected to the lower part of the desalination and descaling device 20. Since the purified sewage will remain concentrated salt water in the desalination and descaling device 20 after desalination and descaling in the desalination and descaling device 20, which cannot enter the boiler 10, the discharge pipeline 40 is provided to be connected to the lower part of the desalination and descaling device 20 so that the concentrated salt water can be discharged to the spray drying plant for drying, thereby avoiding the concentrated salt water from being accumulated in the desalination and descaling device 20.
[0031] Specifically, the steam port of the desalter 20 is located at the upper part of the desalter 20. Since there are both gas and liquid inside the desalter 20, and only water vapor is required to enter the boiler 10 during the normal operation of the steam boiler desalter system, the steam port is arranged at the upper part of the desalter 20, which can facilitate the gas-liquid separation inside the desalter 20.
[0032] Optionally, the steam boiler desalination and descaling system further includes a purified sewage inlet liquid pipeline 50, which is connected to the desalination and descaling device 20 and has a first connection point, and the heat exchange return pipeline 32 has a second connection point with the desalination and descaling device 20, and the first connection point is higher than the second connection point. Of course, the specific positional relationship between the first connection point and the second connection point can also be reasonably adjusted according to the overall operation of the system.
[0033] Optionally, the steam boiler desalination and scale reduction system further includes an air injection pipeline 60, which is connected to the top of the separator 31. When the superheated steam is separated and discharged to the outside of the steam boiler desalination and scale reduction system through the separator 31, the air injection pipeline 60 is provided, and the air injection pipeline 60 can be used as a gas pipeline for the superheated steam.
[0034] Optionally, the steam boiler desalination and descaling system also includes a salt content detector for detecting the salt content of the liquid in the desalination and descaling device 20, and when the salt content detected by the salt content detector is greater than a preset value, the discharge pipeline 40 is enabled. Normally, since the boiler 10 needs to operate continuously, the desalination and descaling device 20 needs to work continuously to produce steam, so the discharge pipeline 40 at the bottom of the desalination and descaling device 20 cannot be opened frequently to keep the desalination and descaling device 20 able to operate normally to produce steam. This requires monitoring and detecting the salt content inside the desalination and descaling device 20, and when the detected salt content value is greater than the set value, the discharge pipeline 40 needs to be opened. Therefore, a salt content detector is provided to ensure the normal operation of the desalination and descaling device 20.
[0035] Optionally, the steam boiler desalination and descaling system also includes a prompting device, which is connected to the salt content detector. When the salt content detected by the salt content detector is greater than a preset value, the salt content detector sends a signal to the prompting device to cause the prompting device to alarm. The discharge pipeline 40 is provided with an electric switch valve or a manual switch valve. When the discharge pipeline 40 is provided with a manual switch valve, the staff opens the manual switch valve according to the alarm prompt of the prompting device. The prompting device is provided, and when the salt content inside the desalination and descaling device 20 reaches a set value, the staff can be notified through the prompting device. This can reduce the workload of the staff, so that the staff does not need to observe the detection of the salt content detector all the time, and only needs to work according to the prompt of the prompting device, saving manpower.
[0036] Optionally, the steam boiler desalination and descaling system further includes a plurality of desalination and descaling devices 20 and a plurality of valves, and the plurality of desalination and descaling devices 20 are arranged in parallel or in series to respectively inject steam into the boiler 10; the plurality of valves are arranged in one-to-one correspondence with the plurality of desalination and descaling devices 20 to control the connection state between the corresponding desalination and descaling devices 20 and the boiler 10. In this way, when a large amount of scaling occurs in a single desalination and descaling device 20, the desalination and descaling device 20 can be switched through the valve, thereby preventing the working efficiency of the boiler 10 from being affected by a large number of structures in the desalination and descaling device 20, thereby ensuring the normal and efficient operation of the entire system.
[0037] The operation method of the steam boiler desalination and scale reduction system in the present application adopts the above-mentioned steam boiler desalination and scale reduction system for production, and the operation method includes: an initial operation stage, in which purified sewage is injected into the desalination and scale reduction device 20 of the steam boiler desalination and scale reduction system, and part of the purified sewage enters the boiler 10 of the steam boiler desalination and scale reduction system through the desalination and scale reduction device 20 for heating, and the steam generated after heating enters the separator 31 of the steam boiler desalination and scale reduction system, and flows back to the desalination and scale reduction device 20 through the heat exchange return pipeline 32 of the steam boiler desalination and scale reduction system to heat the purified sewage in the desalination and scale reduction device 20; when the liquid level of the purified sewage in the desalination and scale reduction device 20 is lower than the connection point between the heat exchange return pipeline 32 and the desalination and scale reduction device 20, the steam boiler desalination and scale reduction system enters the normal steam production stage.
[0038] In the initial stage of operation of the steam boiler desalination and scale reduction system, superheated steam has not been generated inside the boiler 10, so it is impossible to divert the superheated steam to the desalination and scale reduction device 20 through the separator 31 to heat the purified sewage inside the desalination and scale reduction device 20. Therefore, it is necessary to add purified sewage or clean water into the boiler 10 through the desalination and scale reduction device 20 in the initial stage to generate superheated steam and adjust the flow of the purified sewage to the liquid pipeline 50 to enable the entire system to enter normal steam production.
[0039] Optionally, the operation method further includes: when the salt content detector in the desalter 20 detects that the salt content of the liquid in the desalter 20 is greater than a preset value, the discharge pipeline 40 of the steam boiler desalter system is enabled. By detecting the salt content of the liquid in the desalter 20, it is ensured that the desalter 20 can generate sufficient steam per unit time to ensure the normal production of the entire system.
[0040] From the above description, it can be seen that the above embodiments of the present invention achieve the following technical effects:
[0041] 1. Solved the problem of scaling, salt precipitation and pipeline blockage in the boiler system and its downstream pipelines during the steam production process of the existing boiler system;
[0042] 2. It greatly reduces the potential safety hazard of boiler tube bursting. It is no longer necessary to frequently flush the pipeline with hot water. The boiler production efficiency is increased and the pipeline pressure loss is reduced.
[0043] 3. The pump inspection cycle is extended and the leakage of the pumping unit stuffing box is reduced;
[0044] 4. The superheat of steam injection is increased and the steam injection effect is improved.
