During the heating process, only the latent heat of steam is effectively utilized, while the sensible heat of steam is hardly utilized, which accounts for 20% to 30% of the total heat of steam. In addition, the quality of uncontaminated steam condensate is close to pure water, and can be used as high-quality boiler feed water or production process water. Therefore, it is urgent to design a method for deep utilization of steam condensate, which can make full use of steam condensate for heat exchange, increase the water inlet temperature of the boiler system, reduce boiler energy consumption, increase the temperature of the combustion-supporting air, and stabilize and strengthen combustion. Summary of the invention

[0005] Preferably, the water generated after the secondary heat exchange enters the condenser and the water temperature rises after heat exchange, preparing for the water-to-water heat exchange in the primary heat exchanger. At the same time, the low-temperature water exchanges heat with the high-temperature flue gas to reduce the high-temperature flue gas to below 60°C. The water vapor in the high-temperature flue gas is condensed when it is cooled, and some harmful substances in the flue gas dissolve in the condensed water.

The feed water at 60-70°C enters the deaerator.

[0010] The beneficial effects of the present invention are: (1) The water-to-water heat exchange in the primary heat exchanger increases the inlet water temperature of the deaerator and reduces the steam consumption of the deaerator.

[0011] (2) The water-to-water heat exchange in the secondary heat exchanger increases the water inlet temperature of the condenser, reduces the heat exchange temperature difference, and is beneficial to increasing the service life of the condenser.

The primary heat exchanger 1 and the secondary heat exchanger 2 both adopt water-to-water heat exchange. The steam condensate enters the primary heat exchanger 1 through a primary heat exchanger water inlet pipe 6. The steam condensate outlet of the primary heat exchanger 1 is connected to the steam condensate inlet of the secondary heat exchanger 2 through a primary heat exchanger water outlet pipe 7. The steam condensate outlet of the secondary heat exchanger 2 is connected to the steam condensate inlet of the secondary heat exchanger 2 through a secondary heat exchanger water outlet pipe 8. The pipeline 12 is connected to the water inlet of the air preheater 3, the water outlet of the air preheater 3 is connected to the water supply pipeline 11 through the air preheater water outlet pipeline 13, the water supply pipeline 11 is connected to the water supply inlet of the secondary heat exchanger 2, the water supply outlet of the secondary heat exchanger 2 is connected to the water inlet of the condenser 4 through the condenser water inlet pipeline 10, the water outlet of the condenser 4 is connected to the water supply inlet of the primary heat exchanger 1 through the condenser water outlet pipeline 9, and the water supply outlet of the primary heat exchanger 1 is connected to the water inlet of the deaerator 5 through the deaerator water inlet pipeline 8.

[0018] Working principle: The 80-100°C steam condensate and the 50-60°C water generated by the heat exchange of the condenser 4 are exchanged with each other through the primary heat exchanger 1 to generate 70-80°C steam condensate and 60-70°C water. The 60-70°C water enters the deaerator 5, thereby increasing the water inlet temperature of the deaerator 5 and reducing the steam consumption of the deaerator 5. The 70-80℃ steam condensate and the 20℃ make-up water are exchanged with each other through the secondary heat exchanger 2 to produce 50-60℃ steam condensate and 25-35℃ water. The 25-35℃ water enters the condenser 4 to exchange heat with the flue gas to reduce the flue gas temperature. The 50-60℃ steam condensate enters the air preheater 3 to exchange heat with the cold air. Specifically, the water temperature of 25-35℃ water is increased after entering the condenser 4 for heat exchange, so that the heat exchange temperature difference is reduced, which is beneficial to improving the service life of the condenser 4; at the same time, the low-temperature water exchanges heat with the high-temperature flue gas, reducing the high-temperature flue gas of 130-160℃ to below 60℃, and the water vapor in the high-temperature flue gas is condensed when it is cooled, so that some harmful substances in the flue gas are dissolved in the condensed water, reducing pollution emissions, which is beneficial to environmental protection; the exhaust temperature is reduced, and the overall thermal efficiency is improved by about 4% or more; The 50-60°C steam condensate and -10-10°C air are exchanged with each other through the air preheater 3 to produce 10-20°C steam condensate and 5-20°C air. The increase in air temperature is beneficial to stabilizing and strengthening combustion, and the 10-20°C steam condensate can be used as make-up water and flow into the make-up water pipeline.
