Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] The present invention belongs to the technical field of underground coal pyrolysis, and particularly relates to a multi-generation and carbon dioxide sequestration system and method for in-situ coal pyrolysis. Background Art
[0002] The pattern of primary energy distribution of "rich in coal, poor in oil, and scarce in gas" determines the irreplaceable position of coal in China's energy consumption. In 2020, the proportion of coal in the total primary energy consumption was approximately 58.3%, with a year-on-year increase of 0.6%. Therefore, the dominant energy position of coal remains difficult to change before the goals of "carbon peak" and "carbon neutrality" are achieved. If the coal tar after coal pyrolysis can be fully utilized to produce products such as coal-based special fuels and chemical raw materials, it can effectively solve the problem of China's high dependence on foreign oil and gas resources.
[0003] Currently, the main coal pyrolysis technologies are all surface pyrolysis, that is, coal is mined and transported underground, and after washing and processing, it enters surface pyrolysis equipment to be converted into tar, gas, and semi-coke products. However, surface pyrolysis has problems such as large land occupation, overcapacity of pyrolysis semi-coke, air pollution, and water pollution. Compared with surface pyrolysis, in-situ underground coal pyrolysis has the advantages of small land occupation, less carbon emission footprint, and preventable ground subsidence. In addition, there is a large amount of heat remaining in the underground coal seam after in-situ coal pyrolysis. Reasonably using the residual heat of the pyrolyzed coal seam for power generation can effectively reduce the dependence on traditional fossil fuel power generation.
[0004] Currently, the following two methods are mainly used to reduce carbon emissions: one is to seek low-cost solutions to reduce carbon dioxide emissions; the other is carbon capture, utilization, and storage (CCUS).
[0005] Currently, the biggest challenge in the development of CCUS is the cost issue. Under high-intensity carbon emissions, the cost of carbon capture is relatively too high. Under the existing technical conditions, installing a carbon capture device will generate additional capital investment and operation and maintenance costs, etc. In addition, in the process of carbon sequestration, the transportation of carbon dioxide mainly uses tank trucks at present. The transportation volume of tank trucks is small and the transportation risk is high, while the pipeline network construction has high investment and poor flexibility. In addition, if leakage occurs during transportation, injection, and storage, it will affect the ecological environment and production activities near the accident. Therefore, a multi-generation and carbon dioxide sequestration system and method for in-situ coal pyrolysis are of great significance to energy development. Summary of the Invention

[0028] In a second aspect, a method for in-situ coal pyrolysis polygeneration and carbon dioxide storage includes the following steps:
[0029] S1. Fracture the coal seam through the first injection well and the second injection well to generate coal seam fissures and a mild oxidation heat supply zone in the coal seam, and inject a proppant into the coal seam fissures through the first injection well and the second injection well;
[0030] S2. Arrange an internal component vortex heat exchange device inside the horizontal well and at the bottoms of the first injection well and the second injection well; control the combustion of the mild oxidation heat supply zone through an ignition device to raise the temperature of the coal seam to be pyrolyzed;
[0031] S3. Generate a high-temperature and high-pressure heat carrier through a pressurizing device and a heating device, and inject it into the coal seam through the first injection well and the second injection well. Under the enhanced heat exchange effect of the internal component vortex heat exchange device and the proppant in the horizontal well, the coal starts to be pyrolyzed in-situ underground;
[0032] S4. Extract the pyrolysis products through the production well and send them into the product separation and processing module through the first heat exchanger. At the same time, the first heat exchanger sends the heat generated during the pyrolysis process into the heating device to generate high-temperature and high-pressure steam and inject it into the coal seam again;
[0033] S5. The pyrolysis products are preliminarily separated into coal tar products and pyrolysis gas products through a condensation separator; the coal tar products are dehydrated in a dehydration tower, then enter a heating furnace for heating, and subsequently enter a hydrofining reactor for hydroprocessing. The coal tar products leaving the hydrofining reactor first enter a hot high-pressure separator to separate hydrogen, which is sent back to the hydrofining reactor for reuse, then pass through a hot low-pressure separator to separate residual gas, and finally enter a distillation column to be separated into oil and gas products; the pyrolysis gas products are first subjected to gas washing and absorption treatment in a gas washing tower and an absorption tower, then enter an electrostatic tar precipitator to collect residual tar and send it to the heating furnace, and then the pyrolysis gas products are sent to a first separator to separate hydrogen and its waste heat pyrolysis gas. Among them, the hydrogen enters the tar hydrofining reactor, and the pyrolysis gas enters the power generation module for power generation;
[0034] S6. Use a first pressure pump to pump water into the pyrolyzed coal seam through a third injection well, heat it using the waste heat of the pyrolyzed coal seam, and extract the waste heat products from the production well and send them to a second heat exchanger. The second heat exchanger evaporates water into high-temperature steam relying on the heat in the waste heat products, and the high-temperature steam is passed into a steam turbine to drive a generator for power generation. The waste heat products in the second heat exchanger are passed into a second separator. The second separator separates the oil and gas products carried in the waste heat products and sends the water back to the circulating water pump for reuse;
[0035] S7. Send the carbon dioxide in the power generation module and the product separation and processing module to the carbon dioxide capture and storage module. The absorbent in the carbon dioxide capture and storage module absorbs carbon dioxide, and then is heated for desorption. The carbon dioxide gas is collected, and the absorbent is recycled after heating and desorption; the collected carbon dioxide gas is processed into a supercritical state through a booster pump and a heater, and is injected into the underground coal seam for geological storage through a second pressure pump from the first injection well, the second injection well or the production well.
[0036] A further improvement of the present invention lies in that: when injecting the high-temperature and high-pressure heat carrier in S2, first adopt slow heating, and when the whole coal seam reaches the preset temperature, increase the heating rate.
[0037] A further improvement of the present invention lies in that: when the temperature of the waste heat products is greater than or equal to 100 °C, the waste heat recovery and utilization module works normally, and when the temperature of the waste heat products is lower than 100 °C, the waste heat recovery and utilization module stops working.
[0038] A further improvement of the present invention lies in that: when the absorbent is heated for desorption after absorbing carbon dioxide, the absorbent after absorbing carbon dioxide is heated to 150 °C to complete desorption to obtain a pure absorbent.

In addition, by using the multi-generation technology to generate electricity with gas, the energy utilization efficiency is improved and the energy consumption is reduced, which is a powerful way to realize coal-based clean energy.
[0041] 2. The present invention combines a carbon dioxide capture and storage module to capture the carbon dioxide generated by the capture system and geologically store it through the pyrolyzed coal seam. The semi-coke structure and geological environment generated after pyrolysis provide natural conditions for carbon storage, improving the safety of carbon dioxide storage and reducing the storage cost, which is an effective means for treating carbon dioxide.
[0042] 3. The present invention uses the waste heat of the coal seam after in-situ pyrolysis to generate electricity, reducing the energy consumption of the system.
[0043] 4. The present invention controls the temperature and oxidation heating to control the combustion of part of the coal seam, and uses the heat released by coal combustion to promote the pyrolysis of the remaining coal seam, improving the efficiency of in-situ coal pyrolysis to achieve the purpose of shortening the construction period.
[0044] 5. The present invention uses an internal component vortex heat exchange device, which plays a role in strengthening heat exchange in the stage of injecting hot carrier for pyrolysis. On the other hand, in the stage of carbon dioxide storage, it acts as a static mixer to strengthen the absorption and storage of carbon dioxide.
[0045] 6. The present invention absorbs carbon dioxide in the process through amine-based ionic liquids, which can effectively reduce the carbon emissions of the system. And the amine-based ionic liquids can be desorbed by heating, enabling the absorbent to be recycled and reducing the cost. BRIEF DESCRIPTION OF THE DRAWINGS
