Description

Technical Field

[0001] This invention relates to an integrated energy-saving and environmentally friendly device and method for multi-stage fluidized bed coal gasification and suspended melting reduction smelting, belonging to the field of energy-saving and environmentally friendly coal gasification technology. Background Technology

[0002] Coal gasification is a key technology for the efficient and clean utilization of coal. Currently, various furnace types used in production, such as aerospace furnaces and Tsinghua furnaces, all have the following problems: (1) High-temperature quenching process, where crude coal gas at 1200-1800°C is quenched down to 200-250°C, resulting in a large loss of sensible heat from the coal gas; (2) With a coal gasification rate of 85-95%, about 5-15% of the coke enters the ash residue, causing a loss of char; (3) A special ash residue treatment system is required, which increases investment. How to change these conditions, reduce gasification heat loss, improve char utilization, and treat gasification ash residue at low cost has been a question that scientific and technical personnel have been thinking about.

[0003] Blast furnace ironmaking suffers from high energy consumption, the need for coking, and environmental pollution. To reduce energy consumption and protect the environment, researchers are racing to develop various non-blast furnace direct smelting reduction ironmaking technologies. In recent years, the concept of flash ironmaking has been proposed, drawing inspiration from flash copper smelting technology. However, flash copper smelting is an exothermic reaction, and the powerful thermodynamic conditions generated by the reaction itself make flash copper smelting possible; while ironmaking is an endothermic reaction, requiring strong thermodynamic forces and a large amount of reducing hydrogen gas to drive the reaction rapidly. Therefore, finding low-cost, powerful thermodynamic forces and a large amount of reducing hydrogen gas is key to making flash ironmaking technology a viable option.

[0004] This invention, based on the invention patent "A Method and Equipment for Multi-Stage Fluidized Bed Coal Gasification Coupled with High-Temperature Transformation" (patent number 201510655258.X), integrates mature processes of flash copper smelting and molten pool reduction iron smelting using multi-stage fluidized bed coal gasification technology. This integration provides strong thermal power and a reducing atmosphere with maximum hydrogen for flash iron smelting. The integration of these three technologies overcomes the three problems inherent in fluidized bed coal gasification while providing strong thermal support and a reducing atmosphere with maximum hydrogen for flash reduction smelting, thus making flash reduction smelting possible.

[0005] However, this also brings a new problem: how to utilize the excess heat and reducing gas. If not utilized, it will greatly increase ironmaking energy consumption, making flash ironmaking energy consumption exceed that of blast furnace ironmaking, which is the key reason why flash ironmaking technology is currently criticized. Therefore, we propose to further integrate mature thermal power generation and coal gasification technologies to achieve an integrated technology of "pulverized coal gasification - flash ironmaking - thermal power generation - coal gasification," so that this invention, while possessing significant technological novelty, inventiveness, and practicality, also has economic rationality. Summary of the Invention

[0006] The present invention aims to provide an energy-saving and environmentally friendly integrated device and method for multi-stage fluidized bed coal gasification and suspension melting reduction smelting, which is a fusion of coal gasification technology and suspension melting reduction smelting technology, providing a new energy-saving and environmentally friendly device and method for coal gasification, suspension melting reduction ironmaking and solid waste treatment.

It specifically addresses three problems inherent in fluidized bed coal gasification while providing strong thermal energy and a reducing atmosphere with maximum hydrogen for flash reduction smelting, thus enabling flash reduction smelting. To address new problems arising from this, an integrated technology of "pulverized coal gasification - flash ironmaking - thermal power generation - coal gasification products" is further proposed, making this invention not only novel, inventive, and practical, but also economically viable.

[0008] This invention provides an integrated energy-saving and environmentally friendly device for multi-stage fluidized bed coal gasification and suspended melting reduction smelting. The integrated energy-saving and environmentally friendly device includes a fluidized bed coal gasification device, a coal gas conversion hydrogen production device, a suspended melting reduction smelting device, and a molten pool device connected in sequence from top to bottom. The other side of the molten pool is provided with an ascending flue and a high-temperature coal gas outlet. The outer end of the outlet is connected in sequence to a thermal power generation device and a coal gasification production device.

[0009] The fluidized bed coal gasification device is located at the top of the integrated device, and the top of the furnace body is equipped with a pulverized coal inlet, an oxygen inlet, and a first steam inlet; the height of the gasification device is less than 1.5 meters.

[0010] A gas shift hydrogen production unit is connected below the fluidized bed coal gasification unit. The upper two sides of the gas shift hydrogen production unit are provided with material inlets and second steam inlets. The material inlets are connected to the material preheating unit.

The molten pool is equipped with a slag outlet, a molten iron outlet, and high-temperature gas, oxygen, and calcium oxide injection inlets that are staggered on both sides of the molten pool. The bottom of the molten pool is inclined towards the molten iron outlet. The other end of the molten pool is a rising flue and a high-temperature gas outlet.

[0015] The integrated device consists of a fluidized bed coal gasification device, a coal gas conversion hydrogen production device, and a suspended melting reduction smelting device, forming an integrated vertical gasification suspended reduction smelting furnace. The furnace body diameter increases from top to bottom in a trumpet shape.

[0017] This invention employs the aforementioned multi-stage fluidized bed coal gasification suspension melting reduction smelting integrated device to provide an energy-saving and environmentally friendly method for coal gasification suspension melting reduction smelting, comprising the following steps:

[0018] (1) Pulverized coal gasification process:

[0021] The high-temperature mixed gas flow of crude coal gas and ash slag after gasification in the upper part enters the coal gas conversion hydrogen production unit located in the middle. 70% of the total amount of water vapor is injected into the second water vapor inlet to convert CO into H2 and increase the hydrogen content in the coal gas composition. The material enters the coal gas conversion hydrogen production unit after being preheated by the material preheating device.

[0022] (3) Suspended melting reduction smelting:

[0023] After the material enters the furnace, it undergoes a melting and reduction reaction in a high-temperature reducing atmosphere and in a suspended and falling state, completing the reduction and smelting of more than 80% of the material.

[0024] (4) High-temperature gas, oxygen and calcium oxide powder are intermittently injected into the iron-slag mixture in the molten pool through high-temperature gas, oxygen and calcium oxide injection nozzles on the molten pool to supplement the heat of the molten pool and stir the iron and slag mixture to promote slag formation, iron-slag separation and carburizing process:

[0025] (5) The carbon particles that are not completely gasified during the coal gasification process continuously fall into the molten pool to replenish the carbon in the molten pool and float on the upper layer of the molten iron in the molten pool to form a carbon layer, thereby completing the continued reduction reaction of the ferrous oxide that has not been completely reduced after the suspended melting reduction, and realizing the full and complete utilization of carbon in the coal gasification process.

[0026] (6) Utilize the slag-forming, slag-separating, and slag-discharging functions of the suspended molten reduction pool to solve the slag treatment problem in the coal gasification process;

[0027] (7) The high-temperature gas flow from the rising flue outlet after completing the suspended melting reduction smelting process is used for thermal power generation and coal gas to produce hydrogen or other chemical products, realizing the integration of the "coal gasification-suspended smelting-thermal power generation-coal gasification" technology.

[0028] The specific process flow of the above method is described below:

[0029] The materials mentioned in step (2) include metallurgical dust, mud, slag solid waste, iron ore powder and refractory chromium and nickel metal ores; wherein the particle size of the iron ore powder and refractory chromium and nickel metal ores is less than 200 mesh.

[0030] In step (2), the material is preheated at a temperature of 100-500℃; the weight ratio of steam to pulverized coal is 0.1-0.2:1.

[0031] The integrated method for coal gasification and suspended melting reduction smelting in multi-stage fluidized bed coal gasification is characterized in that: the heat and reducing agent generated by the pulverized coal added in the upper coal gasification process are 1.2 to 2 times the heat and reducing agent required for the suspended melting reduction smelting of the lower material.

[0032] The multi-stage fluidized bed coal gasification suspension melting reduction smelting integrated method is characterized by: according to the specific silicon, magnesium, aluminum and calcium content in the slag, a corresponding amount of calcium oxide powder is injected into the slag layer of the molten pool to form low melting point calcium salt, which promotes slag formation and slag-iron separation.
