Description

Technical Field

[0001] The present invention belongs to the technical field of in-situ pyrolysis and waste heat recovery, and in particular relates to an in-situ pyrolysis and waste heat recovery system and method for oil-rich coal. Background Art

[0002] Oil-rich coal refers to coal with a tar yield between 7% and 12%. Western China has large reserves of oil-rich coal, with Shaanxi Province alone containing 155.03 billion tons. Previous studies have shown that the pyrolysis of one ton of oil-rich coal produces about 10% oil and 500 cubic meters of combustible gas, as well as semi-coke that can replace anthracite and coke. Based on a 10% oil content, the potential oil resources extracted from oil-rich coal in Shaanxi Province can reach 15.503 billion tons. Under the constraints of the "dual carbon" goal, how to efficiently and cleanly utilize coal resources has become an urgent problem to be solved.

[0003] Coal exists in solid form in its natural state and cannot be mined like natural gas in reservoirs. Only after pyrolysis can it be converted into products such as tar and pyrolysis gas. The dry distillation technology currently used in the coal chemical industry is mainly ground dry distillation technology, which involves building large-scale facilities and systems on the ground to create a high-temperature anaerobic environment. The coal mined from underground is crushed to a certain size, sent to the dry distillation system on the ground, and then dry distilled to obtain products such as tar and coal gas. This dry distillation technology has many problems, such as large area occupation, low efficiency and environmental pollution.

[0004] Another technology is in-situ pyrolysis technology, which is to drill a well from the ground into the ore deposit and provide additional heat in the stratum, such as electric heat or heat-carrying fluid, so that the coal can be pyrolyzed in situ to produce products such as tar and gas. This technology can be applied to deep ore deposits. In addition, this technology avoids pollution from chemical residues and has significant advantages over ground distillation technology. At present, this technology is mainly used in the field of oil shale mining, and there is no case of applying it to oil-rich coal. Oil-rich coal and oil shale have similar mineral conditions. Applying this technology to the pyrolysis of oil-rich coal has broad application prospects.

[0005] The in-situ pyrolysis process requires a large amount of energy input. However, the current in-situ pyrolysis technology does not recycle the heat in the ore deposit after in-situ pyrolysis, which not only causes a large amount of energy waste, but also causes thermal pollution to the environment. Therefore, it is of great significance to recycle the waste heat in the ore deposit after in-situ pyrolysis. Summary of the invention

[0018] A cooling medium is introduced into the cooling medium input end of the cooler, and a gaseous working medium is input into the cooler. The gaseous working medium cooled by the cooler is pressed into the four-way reversing valve through the first compressor, and the second output end and the third output end of the four-way reversing valve are controlled to be connected. The gaseous working medium is output from the first output end of the four-way reversing valve and then enters the heater. The gaseous working medium heated by the heater enters the injection well after passing through the first oil separator, and heats the oil-rich coal seam through the coal seam fracture. The heated gaseous working medium carries the product oil after pyrolysis into the production well, and the production well collects After the product oil is produced, the heated gaseous working medium enters the second oil separator. After the second oil separator separates the heated gaseous working medium into oil and gas, the heated gaseous working medium enters the absorption refrigeration unit as a heat source to drive the absorption refrigeration unit, and is input into the first compressor. At the same time, the cooling medium carrying heat output from the cooling medium output end of the cooler enters from the cooling medium input end of the absorption refrigeration unit, and the refrigerated cooling medium is input from the cooling medium output end of the absorption refrigeration unit to the cooling medium input end of the cooler.

The gaseous working medium output from the first compressor is output from the second output end of the four-way reversing valve and enters the production well through the second oil separator, and enters the coal seam fracture through the production well to exchange heat with the oil-rich coal seam after the in-situ pyrolysis. The gaseous working medium after the heat exchange carries the residual product oil through the injection well and enters the first oil separator. After the first oil separator separates the gaseous working medium carrying the residual product oil from oil and gas, the gaseous working medium after the oil separation passes through the heater and the four-way reversing valve, and the gaseous working medium carrying the residual heat enters the absorption refrigeration unit as a heat source to drive the absorption refrigeration unit, and then enters the first compressor to complete the waste heat recovery cycle after the in-situ pyrolysis of the oil-rich coal.

[0020] Furthermore, cooling medium is introduced into the cooling medium input end of the first heat exchanger and the cooling medium input end of the second heat exchanger. After the air separator separates the air into nitrogen and oxygen, the nitrogen and oxygen are respectively heat exchanged through the first heat exchanger and the second heat exchanger.

[0021] Compared with the prior art, the present invention has at least the following beneficial effects: the present invention provides an in-situ pyrolysis and waste heat recovery system for oil-rich coal. When in use, a cooling medium is introduced into the cooling medium input end of the cooler, and a gaseous working medium is input into the cooler. The gaseous working medium cooled by the cooler is pressed into the four-way reversing valve through the first compressor, and the second output end and the third output end of the four-way reversing valve are controlled to be connected. The gaseous working medium is output from the first output end of the four-way reversing valve and then enters the heater. The gaseous working medium heated by the heater enters the injection well after passing through the first oil separator, and heats the oil-rich coal seam through the coal seam fractures. The heated gaseous working medium carries the product oil after pyrolysis into the production well. After the production well collects the product oil, the heated gaseous working medium enters the second oil separator. After the second oil separator separates the heated gaseous working medium into oil and gas, the heated gaseous working medium enters the absorption refrigeration unit as a heat source to drive the absorption refrigeration unit, and is input into the first compressor. At the same time, the gaseous working medium carrying heat output from the cooling medium output end of the cooler A large amount of cooling medium enters from the cooling medium input end of the absorption refrigeration unit, and the refrigerated cooling medium is input from the cooling medium output end of the absorption refrigeration unit to the cooling medium input end of the cooler, and the gaseous working medium circulates continuously to complete the in-situ pyrolysis of the oil-rich coal; when the in-situ pyrolysis of the oil-rich coal is completed, the heater is turned off, and the first output end and the third output end of the four-way reversing valve are controlled to be connected. The gaseous working medium output from the first compressor is output from the second output end of the four-way reversing valve and then enters the production well through the second oil separator, and enters the coal seam fracture through the production well to exchange heat with the oil-rich coal seam after in-situ pyrolysis. The gaseous working medium after heat exchange carries the residual product oil through the injection well and enters the first oil separator. After the first oil separator separates the gaseous working medium carrying the residual product oil from oil and gas, the gaseous working medium after oil separation passes through the heater and the four-way reversing valve, and the gaseous working medium carrying the residual heat enters the absorption refrigeration unit as a heat source to drive the absorption refrigeration unit, and then enters the first compressor to complete the waste heat recovery and utilization cycle after the in-situ pyrolysis of the oil-rich coal. It can be seen that the present invention utilizes cold fluid in the coal seam fracture flow channel to exchange heat with the coal seam after in-situ pyrolysis by means of convection heat transfer, thereby recycling the waste heat, and after a certain waste heat recovery cycle, the device is placed in the next production well and injection well to continue to recover waste heat. This method can recover most of the heat after in-situ pyrolysis of the coal seam, save energy, improve energy utilization efficiency, and does not pollute the environment.

[0022] Furthermore, the gaseous working medium carrying waste heat is used as a heat source to drive the lithium bromide absorption refrigeration unit. The cooling medium enters the cooler after obtaining cold energy through the lithium bromide absorption refrigeration unit, precools the air before entering the air separator, and is sent back to the lithium bromide absorption refrigeration unit through a pipeline to complete the air precooling cycle.

The oxygen output end of the air separator is connected to one end of the second heat exchanger, and the other end of the second heat exchanger is connected to the oxygen collecting device. The collected oxygen can be used for other purposes.

[0024] Furthermore, the cooling medium after obtaining cold enters the pipeline around the pyrolysis area, exchanges heat with the coal seam, and forms a freezing wall, thereby achieving the purpose of preventing groundwater from infiltrating into the pyrolysis area and oil and gas from seeping out. The cooling medium after heat exchange is then returned to the first heat exchanger and the second heat exchanger through the pipeline, completing the refrigeration cycle of the freezing wall.

[0025] Furthermore, it also includes a gas storage tank, the output end of the first compressor is connected to the input end of the gas storage tank, and the output end of the gas storage tank is connected to the input end of the four-way reversing valve, so as to facilitate the storage and utilization of the gas working medium.

After the second oil separator (14) separates the heated gaseous working medium from oil and gas, the heated gaseous working medium enters the absorption refrigeration unit (15) as a heat source to drive the absorption refrigeration unit (15), and is input into the first compressor (6). At the same time, the cooling medium carrying heat output from the cooling medium output end (a1) of the cooler (2) enters from the cooling medium input end (a2) of the absorption refrigeration unit (15), and the refrigerated cooling medium is input from the cooling medium output end (b1) of the absorption refrigeration unit (15) to the cooling medium input end (b2) of the cooler (2). The gaseous working medium is continuously circulated to complete the in-situ pyrolysis of the oil-rich coal. When the in-situ pyrolysis of the oil-rich coal is completed, the heater (9) is turned off, and the first output end and the third output end of the four-way reversing valve (8) are controlled to be connected. The gaseous working medium output from the first compressor (6) is output from the second output end of the four-way reversing valve (8) and enters the production well (13) through the second oil separator (14), and enters the coal seam fracture (12) through the production well (13) to exchange heat with the oil-rich coal seam after the in-situ pyrolysis. The gaseous working medium after the heat exchange carries the residual product oil and enters the first oil separator (10) through the injection well (11). The first oil separator (10) separates the gaseous working medium carrying the residual product oil from oil and gas. After the gaseous working medium after the oil separation passes through the heater (9) and the four-way reversing valve (8), the gaseous working medium carrying the residual heat enters the absorption refrigeration unit (15) as a heat source to drive the absorption refrigeration unit (15), and then enters the first compressor (6), completing the waste heat recovery cycle after the in-situ pyrolysis of the oil-rich coal.

10. The method for in-situ pyrolysis and waste heat recovery of oil-rich coal according to claim 9, characterized in that: A cooling medium is introduced into the cooling medium input end (d2) of the first heat exchanger (5) and the cooling medium input end (d3) of the second heat exchanger (4). After the air separator (3) separates the air into nitrogen and oxygen, the nitrogen and oxygen are respectively passed through the first heat exchanger (5) and the second heat exchanger (4) for heat exchange. The cooling medium with cold capacity is input into one end (c3) of the pipe network through the cooling medium output end (c1) of the first heat exchanger (5) and the cooling medium output end (c2) of the second heat exchanger (4) to cool the oil-rich coal seam, thereby forming the freezing wall (16), and then enters the cooling medium input end (d2) of the first heat exchanger (5) and the cooling medium input end (d3) of the second heat exchanger (4).
