Description

TECHNICAL FIELD

[0001] The present application belongs to the technical field of municipal sludge incineration in thermal power plants, and in particular to a low-quality steam sludge dryer for thermal power plants and a method of using the same. BACKGROUND

[0002] The power system is the main force to achieve the double carbon target. Thermal power is gradually adjusting its positioning from base load power supply to standby power supply. Flexible and deep peaking has become the main work content of thermal power plants. Implementing coal blending and increasing the use of economic coal are effective means for thermal power plants to maximize benefits under low-load deep peaking. Municipal sludge is widely available and has a large output, and is a solid waste that needs to be disposed of urgently. By dewatering and upgrading municipal sludge into solid fuel for combustion in large thermal power plants, not only can the output of municipal sludge be rapidly reduced to help build a waste-free city, but also the fuel cost of thermal power plants can be reduced, making thermal power plants more competitive in deep peaking.

[0003] Thermal power plants are increasingly closely linked to municipal sludge. First, thermal power plants use a large amount of municipal water as production working medium, thereby protecting groundwater and surface water, and returning water to rivers. At the same time of using municipal water, the generated municipal sludge needs to be handled by itself, and if not utilized, it can only be landfilled. Combining the process flow of thermal power plants, furnace incineration is the best technical means to handle municipal sludge. Second, thermal power plants break the raw coal through the pulverizing system, and the coal powder blown into the furnace has a particle size of less than 300 μm. If the sludge is to be utilized by the thermal power plant, it needs to be dried and ground to a particle size of less than 300 μm, and then blown into the furnace with the primary air. However, the sludge has a high water content of about 80%, and after dewatering by the existing plate filter press, it is still in a lump shape. The sludge with a high water content not only causes the wall sticking and blockage of the coal feeder, but also cannot be transported by air, so it cannot be directly combusted and utilized by the thermal power plant. Third, hydrothermal technology is used for hydrothermal dewatering in the range of 150~180 ℃. At a lower hydrothermal temperature, while removing the water in the sludge, the organic matter inside the sludge is maximally maintained, and the fuel quality of the sludge is improved. Compared with conventional thermal drying, by increasing the initial pressure in the hydrothermal reactor to be higher than the saturation hydrothermal vapor pressure corresponding to the hydrothermal reaction temperature, the water vaporization inside the sludge can be avoided, thereby generating latent heat of vaporization, resulting in high energy consumption. The low-quality steam in the auxiliary steam header of the thermal power plant is the best power source for sludge hydrothermal dewatering. However, municipal sludge is not currently used for incineration in large thermal power plants, so it is necessary to invent a sludge dryer that is high in dewatering rate and has strong matching with the production process of the thermal power plant.
