Description

Technical Field

[0001] The present application relates to the technical field of coal gas power generation, and in particular to a system for comprehensive utilization of blast furnace slag flushing water and flue gas waste heat from coal gas power generation units. Background Art

[0002] During the ironmaking process, blast furnaces produce high-temperature slag at around 1500°C. The primary slag treatment process involves water quenching, which produces a large amount of slag-flushing water. This water removes approximately 8% of the energy consumed in ironmaking, equivalent to 21kg of standard coal per ton of iron. my country is a major producer of steel, and with an annual output of 500 million tons, this water-flushing heat is equivalent to 10 million tons of standard coal. However, the circulating water pool used for slag-flushing, at approximately 80°C, represents a low-temperature waste heat source with limited utilization options. Consequently, much of this heat is wasted, necessitating the urgent need to explore more ways to utilize this waste heat.

[0003] The steelmaking process also produces a large amount of blast furnace gas. Currently, most steel mills are fully utilizing this energy by building clean energy power generation projects to use the surplus blast furnace gas for power generation. However, the exhaust temperature of most blast furnace gas boilers is currently above 140°C, which is still relatively high compared to large coal-fired units. This flue gas waste heat still has room for further recovery and utilization. Therefore, a comprehensive system for utilizing blast furnace slag flushing water and flue gas waste heat from gas-fired generators has become a key technical issue in this field.

[0030] The disclosure below provides many different embodiments or examples for realizing different structures of the present application. In order to simplify the disclosure of the present application, the components and settings of specific examples are described below. Of course, they are merely examples and are not intended to limit the present application.

In addition, the present application provides examples of various specific processes and materials, but those of ordinary skill in the art will appreciate the application of other processes and / or the use of other materials.

[0031] The present application is a comprehensive utilization system of blast furnace slag flushing water and flue gas waste heat from a gas-fired generator set, comprising condensate 1, a slag flushing water-condensate heat exchanger 2, a slag flushing water circulating water pool 3, an economizer 4, a first heater 5, a second heater 6, a third heater 7, a fourth heater 8, a dust collector 9, an induced draft fan 10, a gate valve a21, a condensate booster pump a22, a check valve a23, an electric gate valve a24, a gate valve b25, a condensate booster pump b26, a check valve b27, an electric gate valve b28, a gate valve c31, a slag flushing water booster pump a32, a check valve c33, an electric gate valve c34, a gate valve d35, a slag flushing water booster pump b36, a check valve d37, an electric gate valve d38, an electric gate valve e41, an electric gate valve f42 and an electric gate valve g61.

[0032] like Figure 1 As shown, the condensate 1, the fourth heater 8, the third heater 7, the second heater 6 and the first heater 5 are connected in sequence through pipes to form a condensate main path. In the gas generator set, this part is used to heat the condensate 1, and most of the condensate 1 passes through this condensate main path.

[0033] like Figure 1As shown, a portion of condensate 1 (temperature approximately 41°C) is drawn from the slag flushing water-condensate heat exchanger 2 for heating. The heated condensate (temperature approximately 70°C) then passes through gate valve a21, condensate booster pump a22, check valve a23, and electric gate valve a24, thereby boosting its pressure. The pipeline formed by gate valve a21, condensate booster pump a22, check valve a23, and electric gate valve a24 serves as the backup condensate boosting pipeline. This pipeline can be used to boost the condensate pressure in the event of a malfunction of condensate booster pump a22. The boosted condensate can then flow through electric gate valve g61 to the second heater 6, where it mixes with the main condensate line (temperature approximately 97°C). This forms the first condensate branch. Alternatively, it can flow through electric gate valve e41, economizer 4, and electric gate valve f42 to the first heater 5, forming the second condensate branch. When the flue gas temperature in the economizer 4 is high enough to heat the condensate, the second condensate branch is opened and the first condensate branch is closed. At this time, the condensate is heated by the economizer 4 (temperature is about 128°C) and goes to the first heater 5 with a higher heating temperature to mix with the condensate main line (temperature is about 123°C); when the flue gas temperature in the economizer 4 is low and does not meet the conditions for heating the condensate, the first condensate branch is opened and the second condensate branch is closed. At this time, the condensate goes to the second heater 6 with a lower heating temperature.

[0034] like Figure 1 As shown, the dust collector 9, economizer 4 and induced draft fan 10 are connected in sequence through pipes to form a flue gas heat exchange pipeline. When the flue gas enters the economizer 4 with a high temperature, it can be used to heat the condensate in the second condensate branch; when the flue gas enters the economizer 4 with a low temperature, in order to avoid low-temperature corrosion, the second condensate branch can be omitted.

[0035] like Figure 1 As shown, the slag flushing water circulation pool 3, the gate valve c31, the slag flushing water booster pump a32, the check valve c33, the electric gate valve c34 and the slag flushing water-condensate heat exchanger 2 are connected in sequence through pipelines to form a slag flushing water supply pipeline, and the slag flushing water (temperature is about 80°C) is sent into the slag flushing water-condensate heat exchanger 2 to heat the condensate; the gate valve d35, the slag flushing water booster pump b36, the check valve d37 and the electric gate valve d38 are connected in sequence through pipelines to form a slag flushing water standby supply pipeline, and the slag flushing water supply pipeline and the slag flushing water standby supply pipeline are connected in parallel. When the slag flushing water booster pump b36 fails, the slag flushing water standby supply pipeline can be put into use. The slag flushing water-condensate heat exchanger 2 and the slag flushing water circulating water pool 3 are directly connected by a pipe to form a slag flushing water return pipeline, which is used to recover the low-temperature slag flushing water (temperature of about 50°C) after heating the condensate water. The cooled slag flushing water is continued to be used for slag cooling.

[0036] In a gas-fired generator set, extracting high-temperature, high-pressure steam from each stage of the steam turbine to heat condensate passing through the fourth heater 8, third heater 7, second heater 6, and first heater 5 results in a waste of high-quality energy. By utilizing the temperatures of the slag-flushing water and flue gas to heat the condensate in the gas-fired generator set in stages, the amount of steam extracted from each stage of the steam turbine can be reduced, increasing the turbine's work capacity and improving the gas-fired generator set's power generation efficiency. Furthermore, this system fully utilizes the waste heat from the slag-flushing water and flue gas, reducing heat loss.

[0037] To sum up, this application heats the condensate of the gas-fired generator set in stages according to the temperature of the slag-flushing water and the flue gas. Part of the condensate is heated from 41°C to 70°C by the slag-flushing water, and then the condensate is heated from 70°C to 128°C by the waste heat of the flue gas. The heat is utilized in the gas-fired generator set through the condensate, thereby improving the thermal efficiency of the unit's power generation and achieving the purpose of waste heat recovery and utilization. It has important guiding significance for steel enterprises to respond to the "dual carbon policy" and environmental protection.

[0038] The above is only a preferred specific implementation method of the present application, but the scope of protection of the present application is not limited thereto. Any changes or replacements that can be easily thought of by any technician familiar with this technical field within the technical scope disclosed in this application should be covered by the scope of protection of the present application.
