Among biomass energy conversion technologies, gasification technology is an important way to convert biomass into combustible synthesis gas, which can then be used for power generation, heating or synthetic chemical raw materials. However, traditional biomass utilization methods generally have problems such as low conversion efficiency and serious environmental pollution, which limits their large-scale application; in addition, although biomass resources are abundant, they are restricted by the characteristics of their overly dispersed distribution, and the current utilization rate of biomass energy in my country is not high.

[0018] Embodiment 1
[0019] like Figure 1 As shown, this embodiment provides a biomass-to-alcohol cogeneration system integrating fuel cells and carbon capture, including a gasification and power generation unit, a water electrolysis unit, and a methanol synthesis unit. The gasification and power generation unit consists of a gasifier 1, a No. 1 three-way valve 2, a high-temperature solid oxide fuel cell 3, a No. 1 separator 4, a combustion chamber 5, a No. 1 heat exchanger 6, and a No. 1 compressor 7.

The outlet of the separator 4 is respectively connected to the inlet of the No. 1 three-way valve 2 and the inlet of the combustion chamber 5, the outlet of the combustion chamber 5 is connected to the inlet of the No. 1 heat exchanger 6, and the outlet of the No. 1 heat exchanger 6 is connected to the inlet of the gas turbine 8. The gas drives the gas turbine 8 to do work; the No. 1 compressor 7 inhales air and compresses and outputs compressed air to the No. 1 heat exchanger 6, providing a compressed air source for the No. 1 heat exchanger 6.
[0020] The outlet of the gasifier 1 is connected to the inlet of the fuel cell 3 through the No. 1 three-way valve 2, so that the biomass synthesis gas is efficiently converted and utilized, and the mixing of the reinjected gas further improves the utilization rate of the raw materials. After the exhaust gas at the outlet of the fuel cell 3 passes through the combustion chamber 5 for supplementary combustion, the air is preheated by the No. 1 heat exchanger 6, and then sent to the inlet of the gas turbine 8 to drive it to generate power.

[0022] The flue gas at the outlet of the gas turbine 8 passes through the No. 2 heat exchanger 10 and the collector 15, preheating the raw materials required for water electrolysis while supplying the heat consumption requirements of the carbon capture process, thereby realizing energy cascade utilization. The water electrolysis unit uses the waste heat of the flue gas of the gas turbine 8 to produce high-temperature steam, reducing energy consumption. The oxygen-rich gas produced by the high-temperature solid oxide water electrolysis tank 12 is directly used for gasification and supplementary combustion, reducing the energy consumption of the air separation unit and improving the overall energy utilization efficiency.
[0023] The methanol synthesis unit is composed of a collector 15, a carbon capture device 16, a No. 2 compressor 18, a No. 3 three-way valve 19, a No. 3 heat exchanger 20, a methanol synthesis reactor 21, a No. 3 separator 22, and a distillation tower 23. The outlet of the No. 2 heat exchanger 10 is connected to the inlet of the collector 15, the outlet of the stream pipeline of the collector 15 is connected to the inlet of the carbon capture device 16, the heat storage material of the collector 15 is connected to the heat consumption element of the carbon capture device 16, and the outlet of the carbon capture device 16 is connected to the inlet of the No. 2 compressor 18. A No. 2 three-way valve 17 is connected therebetween, the outlet of the No. 2 compressor 18 is connected to the inlet of the No. 3 three-way valve 19, the outlet of the No. 3 three-way valve 19 is connected to the inlet of the No. 3 heat exchanger 20, the outlet of the No. 3 heat exchanger 20 is connected to the inlet of the methanol synthesis reactor 21, the outlet of the methanol synthesis reactor 21 is connected to the inlet of the No. 3 separator 22, the outlet of the No. 3 separator 22 is respectively connected to the inlet of the No. 3 heat exchanger 20 and the inlet of the No. 3 three-way valve 19, and the outlet of the No. 3 heat exchanger 20 is connected to the inlet of the distillation tower 23. The power consumption and work consumption of each device in the gasification and power generation unit, the water electrolysis unit, and the methanol synthesis unit are all supplied by the power generation output of the fuel cell 3 and the gas turbine 8. Biomass is a green raw material, the hydrogen produced by the water electrolysis unit is green hydrogen, the carbon dioxide captured by the carbon capture device 16 is also a green carbon source, and the system product is green methanol.
[0024] Biomass reacts in the gasifier to generate crude synthesis gas. After removing pollutants such as nitrogen oxides, chlorides and sulfides from the crude synthesis gas, combustible synthesis gas including hydrogen, carbon monoxide, carbon dioxide and a small amount of alkane gas is obtained. The combustible synthesis gas is fed into the anode side inlet of the high-temperature solid oxide fuel cell, and the air is introduced from the cathode side of the high-temperature solid oxide fuel cell after preheating and pressurization. Electrochemical reactions occur in the fuel cell to convert chemical energy into electrical energy. There are incompletely reacted gases in the exhaust gas at the fuel cell outlet. A certain proportion of the exhaust gas is separated and reinjected into the anode side of the fuel cell, and the rest of the exhaust gas is passed into the combustion chamber for supplementary combustion to obtain high-temperature and high-pressure fuel gas. After the fuel gas completes the preheating of the inlet air stream, it drives the gas turbine to generate power. The high-temperature flue gas at the outlet of the gas turbine is about 500-600℃, which can heat the pressurized water source used for water electrolysis and convert it into high-temperature steam. After heating the steam, the flue gas temperature is still above 200°C, which does not meet the carbon capture requirement of 40-50°C for flue gas temperature. Carbon capture consumes electricity and heat energy during the adsorption and release process. The electricity is supplied by the fuel cell, and the heat is provided by the low-temperature flue gas. The oxygen-rich gas at the negative electrode outlet of the high-temperature solid oxide electrolysis tank is sent to the gasifier and the combustion chamber as a gasifier and an oxidant, respectively. The hydrogen at the positive electrode outlet is cooled and mixed with the carbon dioxide obtained by the carbon capture device to form a methanol synthesis feed gas. The methanol synthesis unit uses a high-pressure method to synthesize methanol, so the raw gas needs to be pressurized by a compressor. The product stream at the outlet of the methanol synthesis unit is a gas phase of about 280°C, which is used to preheat the raw gas. Some of the incompletely reacted gases in the product stream are extracted in a quantitative proportion and mixed with the pressurized raw gas. After the preheating work is completed, the product stream is passed into the distillation tower for distillation operation, and finally a high-purity green methanol product is obtained.
[0025] Embodiment 2
[0026] Based on the first embodiment, Figure 1 As shown, in the gasification and power generation unit, the fuel cell has high flexibility in fuel selection and breaks the limitations of the Carnot cycle. The biomass is gasified through a gasifier to generate synthesis gas, and the coupled fuel cell can directly convert the chemical energy of the biomass synthesis gas into electrical energy, thereby improving the efficient conversion and clean utilization of biomass. The high-temperature exhaust gas generated by the fuel cell can be coupled with the gas turbine to form a dual power generation system, further improving the power generation efficiency of the system.
[0027] In the water electrolysis unit, the pressurized water source and the gas turbine exhaust gas fully exchange heat to produce high-temperature steam for solid oxide water electrolysis; the oxygen-rich gas produced by water electrolysis can be used as a gasifying agent for the gasification reaction of biomass in the gasifier and as an oxidizing agent for the supplementary combustion of fuel cell exhaust in the supplementary combustion chamber, avoiding the energy consumption of the air separation unit, improving energy utilization and saving costs; the electricity consumed by water electrolysis is supplied by the fuel cell of the system, and the hydrogen produced is green hydrogen.
[0028] The methanol synthesis unit uses a collector to collect heat from low-temperature flue gas to supplement the heat consumed by carbon capture, while also providing flue gas inlet conditions for carbon capture; there is incompletely reacted gas in the product stream of the methanol synthesis unit, and partial reinjection is used to further improve the reaction conversion rate.
[0029] The working mode of this system is as follows: biomass particles are gasified into high-temperature synthesis gas in the gasifier 1, and the high-temperature synthesis gas is sent to the anode side of the fuel cell 3. The air is compressed by the No. 1 compressor 7 and then passed into the No. 1 heat exchanger 6 for preheating before being sent to the cathode side of the fuel cell 3. The synthesis gas and air undergo an electrochemical reaction in the fuel cell 3 to directly convert chemical energy into electrical energy. The exhaust gas at the outlet of the fuel cell 3 is separated in a specific proportion at the No. 1 separator 4, and a part of the gas is injected back to the inlet of the No. 1 three-way valve 2 to mix with the biomass synthesis gas, and the rest of the exhaust gas is sent to the combustion chamber 5 for supplementary combustion. The high-temperature fuel gas at the outlet of the supplementary combustion chamber 5 drives the gas turbine 8 to work after the air is preheated by the No. 1 preheater 6, and drives the generator 9 to generate electricity. The high-temperature flue gas discharged by the gas turbine 8 is about 500-600°C. The water flow at the outlet of the water pump 11 is heated by the No. 2 preheater 10 and converted into high-temperature steam. The steam is sent to the electrolytic cell 12 for electrolysis reaction to generate hydrogen and oxygen. The oxygen escapes from the negative electrode side of the electrolytic cell 12 and is sent to the gasifier 1 as a gasifying agent and the combustion chamber 5 as an oxidant to assist in supplementary combustion through the No. 2 separator 13. The hydrogen at the outlet of the positive electrode side of the electrolytic cell 12 is cooled and condensed by the condenser 14 and then passed into the inlet of the No. 2 three-way valve 17 to mix with carbon dioxide. The low-temperature flue gas at the outlet of the heat source of the No. 2 preheater 10 of about 200°C is supplied to the heat consumption of the carbon capture device 16 through the collector 15. At the same time, the low-temperature flue gas is reduced to 40-50°C after passing through the collector 15, and then sent to the carbon capture device 16 to capture carbon dioxide in the flue gas. The carbon dioxide at the outlet of the carbon capture device 16 is mixed with hydrogen at the No. 2 three-way valve 17 to form the raw gas for methanol synthesis. Methanol is synthesized by high pressure method, so the raw gas at the outlet of No. 2 three-way valve 17 needs to be compressed by No. 2 compressor 18 and preheated by No. 3 heat exchanger 20. The preheated raw gas is sent to methanol synthesis reactor 21 to generate crude methanol. A small amount of unreacted gas is separated at No. 3 separator 22 and injected back to the inlet of No. 3 three-way valve 19 to mix with the pressurized raw gas. The rest is sent to No. 3 heat exchanger 20 to preheat the raw gas and then sent to distillation tower 23 for distillation to extract high-purity green methanol products.
[0030] It can be seen that this system organically combines the processes of biomass gasification, high-temperature solid oxide fuel cell power generation, water electrolysis hydrogen production and methanol synthesis. By utilizing the clean characteristics of gasification technology and the high efficiency of fuel cells, the problems of difficult utilization of biomass resources and low conversion rate are properly handled. At the same time, clean fuel green methanol is prepared to achieve electricity-alcohol co-production, significantly improve the efficiency of biomass resource utilization, and form a new model of efficient, clean and low-carbon biomass energy conversion and utilization.
