Description

Technical Field

[0001] The invention belongs to the field of thermal equipment and thermal management systems, and in particular relates to a combined system for combustion and waste heat utilization of flare air from an offshore platform. Background Art

[0002] Flare air mainly comes from low-pressure gas, flash gas and cover gas generated during the production process of offshore oil production facilities due to the limitations of production and processing equipment. The main components of flare air are alkanes below 3C, as well as a small amount of H2S, CO2, N2 and other gases. At present, only a small amount of the large amount of flare air produced by offshore platforms is collected, stored and utilized, and a large part of the rest is burned into the air or discharged into the atmosphere. This has caused great energy waste and carbon emissions.

[0003] Solid oxide fuel cell (SOFC) is a new type of high-temperature fuel cell with high efficiency, good fuel adaptability and low pollutant emissions. It has high power generation efficiency (self-generation efficiency is nearly 60%, and the efficiency can be more than 70% when used with gas turbines), high cogeneration efficiency (cogeneration efficiency is more than 90%), water saving (2% of traditional power generation water consumption), green and environmentally friendly, easy modular assembly, wide range of fuel selection (natural gas, coal-to-gas, biomass gas, methanol, etc.), no need for precious metal catalysts, and strong adaptability. SOFC has been well applied in scenarios such as small household cogeneration systems, distributed power generation and transportation (as an auxiliary or power source for vehicles, ships, drones, etc.). As a high-temperature fuel cell, the core operating temperature of SOFC is usually between 700℃ and 800℃, and the temperature of the tail gas of the stack can generally reach more than 750℃, and contains some fuel gas that has not been completely reacted.
