[0031] In order to have a clearer understanding of the technical features, purposes and effects of the present invention, specific embodiments of the present invention are now described with reference to the accompanying drawings.

[0032] like Figure 1 As shown, the present application provides a molten salt boiler heat exchange method, comprising:

[0033] The high-temperature molten salt is transported to the first superheater 200, and the high-temperature molten salt can exchange heat with the slightly superheated steam obtained by the second superheater 300 to obtain sub-high-temperature molten salt and high-temperature superheated steam;

[0034] The sub-high temperature molten salt is transported to the second superheater 300, and the waste heat molten salt is transported to the second superheater 300. The sub-high temperature molten salt and the waste heat molten salt can exchange heat with the saturated steam transported from the drum to the second superheater 300 to obtain intermediate molten salt and slightly superheated steam;

[0035] The intermediate molten salt is transported to the evaporator 400, and is heat exchanged with the saturated water transported to the evaporator 400 by the steam drum to obtain a heat exchange molten salt and a steam-water mixture, and the steam-water mixture is returned and transported to the steam drum;

[0036] The heat exchange molten salt is transported into the economizer 500 and heat-exchanged with the feed water transported into the economizer 500 to obtain low-temperature molten salt and sub-saturated water;

[0037] The sub-saturated water is transported to the steam drum as make-up water.

[0038] Therefore, the heat exchange method of the present application uses two superheaters, and the high-temperature molten salt is passed into the first superheater 200 for heat exchange and then into the second superheater 300, and the waste heat molten salt is passed into the second superheater 300, and the high-temperature molten salt and the waste heat molten salt after cooling are used to heat the saturated steam to obtain slightly superheated steam, and then the high-temperature molten salt is used to further heat the slightly superheated steam to obtain high-temperature superheated steam, which can gradually heat the saturated steam generated by the drum into high-temperature superheated steam, and the temperature of the high-temperature superheated steam is as high as possible. At the same time, the high-temperature molten salt is sent to the first superheater 200, and the waste heat molten salt is sent to the second superheater 300. The molten salt flows out of the superheater after fully releasing heat in the superheater, and enters the evaporator 400 and the economizer 500 in turn, and flows out after cooling, so that the waste heat of the molten salt can be fully utilized, and the cascade utilization of the waste heat molten salt and the high-temperature molten salt energy is effectively realized, and high-quality high-temperature superheated steam is generated.

[0039] In a specific implementation, the molten salt boiler heat exchange method further includes: transporting the low-temperature molten salt obtained after heat exchange in the economizer 500 to a low-temperature molten salt tank 600 .

[0040] Furthermore, in order to realize the recycling of low-temperature molten salt with a relatively low temperature, the molten salt boiler heat exchange method further includes:

[0041] transporting at least part of the low-temperature molten salt in the low-temperature molten salt tank 600 to the molten salt furnace 100;

[0042] At least part of the low-temperature molten salt in the low-temperature molten salt tank 600 is transported to the process equipment of the steel plant.

[0043] The high-temperature molten salt mentioned above comes from the molten salt furnace 100 .

[0044] The molten salt furnace 100 heats the molten salt by introducing coal gas to obtain high-temperature molten salt. It should be noted that the solution of this embodiment is mainly applicable to the working condition where the flow rate of high-temperature molten salt is not sufficient and saturated steam cannot be superheated to high-temperature superheated steam alone. Generally, there is surplus coal gas in a steel plant, and the amount of surplus coal gas determines the amount of high-temperature molten salt that can be obtained by using the molten salt furnace 100. When there is less surplus coal gas in the steel plant, the high-temperature molten salt produced by the molten salt furnace 100 is also less, and it is impossible to heat saturated steam to high-temperature superheated steam alone.

[0045] Therefore, in this embodiment, two superheaters are provided. After the high-temperature molten salt enters the molten salt inlet of the first superheater 200, the superheated steam that has been preliminarily superheated (i.e., the slightly superheated steam delivered by the second superheater 300) is first heated to further increase the temperature of the superheated steam to obtain high-temperature superheated steam. After the high-temperature molten salt is absorbed, the temperature is reduced to form a sub-high-temperature molten salt. The temperature of the sub-high-temperature molten salt is set to be consistent with the temperature of the waste heat molten salt (the two temperatures are close). The waste heat molten salt is connected to the second superheater 300, and the waste heat molten salt is evenly delivered to the second superheater 300. After that, the sub-high-temperature molten salt and the waste heat molten salt heat the saturated steam together to heat the saturated steam into slightly superheated steam.

[0046] In this embodiment, the temperature of the high-temperature molten salt is 500-580°C, the temperature of the waste heat molten salt is 400-500°C, the temperature of the low-temperature molten salt is less than 300°C, the temperature of the high-temperature superheated steam is greater than 450°C, and the temperature of the slightly superheated steam is less than 450°C.

[0047] Waste heat molten salt can also be called medium temperature molten salt, which can be transported intermittently or continuously according to actual working conditions. Waste heat molten salt is obtained by heat exchange of molten salt with steel mill process equipment, and the steel mill process equipment includes the converter flue of the steel mill, the waste heat boiler of steel rolling and the cooling equipment of the steel rolling process. That is, the waste heat molten salt in this embodiment is a molten salt with waste heat formed by heat exchange between molten salt and steel mill process equipment, and the steel mill process equipment transfers waste heat to molten salt, so that the molten salt is heated. For example, the steel mill process equipment can be the converter flue of the steel mill, and the molten salt is heat exchanged with the flue gas in the converter flue to obtain waste heat molten salt; for another example, the steel mill process equipment can also be the waste heat boiler of steel rolling, and the molten salt is heat exchanged with the waste heat of the waste heat boiler to obtain waste heat molten salt; for another example, the steel mill process equipment can also be the cooling equipment of the steel rolling process, and the molten salt is heat exchanged with the high temperature material in the equipment to obtain waste heat molten salt, and the cooling effect on the high temperature material is achieved at the same time.

[0048] Generally, the two superheaters are made of high temperature resistant materials, and the evaporator 400 is generally made of carbon steel pipe.

[0049] Further, see Figure 1The present application also provides a dual-channel molten salt boiler system, comprising a molten salt furnace 100, a first superheater 200, a second superheater 300, an evaporator 400, an economizer 500, a low-temperature molten salt tank 600 and a steam drum; the molten salt inlet and the molten salt outlet of the first superheater 200 are respectively connected to the outlet of the molten salt furnace 100 and the first molten salt inlet of the second superheater 300, the steam inlet and the steam outlet of the first superheater 200 are respectively connected to the micro-superheated steam pipeline 201 and the high-temperature superheated steam pipeline 202, and the second molten salt inlet of the second superheater 300 is connected to the micro-superheated steam pipeline 201 and the high-temperature superheated steam pipeline 202. The inlet, molten salt outlet, saturated steam inlet and steam outlet are respectively connected to the waste heat molten salt pipeline 301, the molten salt inlet of the evaporator 400, the saturated steam pipeline 302 and the slightly superheated steam pipeline 201. The waste heat molten salt pipeline 301 is used to transport waste heat molten salt; the molten salt outlet of the evaporator 400 is connected to the molten salt inlet of the economizer 500, and the circulating liquid inlet and circulating liquid outlet of the evaporator 400 are both connected to the steam drum; the molten salt outlet, feed water inlet and sub-saturated water outlet of the economizer 500 are respectively connected to the low-temperature molten salt tank 600, the feed water pipeline and the steam drum.

[0050] The entire system can make full use of the heat of molten salt, realize the cascade utilization of energy, and generate high-temperature superheated steam.

[0051] Furthermore, the end of the waste heat molten salt pipeline 301 extending into the second superheater 300 is connected to a plurality of branched pipelines, so that the waste heat molten salt can be transported to the second superheater 300 more evenly.

[0052] In order to realize the recycling of low-temperature molten salt with a lower temperature, the outlet of the low-temperature molten salt tank 600 is also connected to a first outlet pipeline 601 and a second outlet pipeline 602. The first outlet pipeline 601 is connected to the molten salt furnace 100; the second outlet pipeline 602 is used to connect to the steel plant process equipment to heat the low-temperature molten salt again to form waste heat molten salt for recycling.

[0053] The system in this embodiment can use the above-mentioned heat exchange method to perform heat exchange.

[0054] In more detail, the working process of the dual heat source molten salt boiler structure in this embodiment is as follows:

[0055] Two steam superheaters are set up, and the high-temperature molten salt obtained from the outlet of the molten salt furnace 100 is introduced into the molten salt inlet of the first superheater 200 to heat the slightly superheated steam, and further increase the superheat of the slightly superheated steam to obtain high-temperature superheated steam. The medium-temperature molten salt (that is, the waste heat molten salt) recovered from waste heat is introduced into the second molten salt inlet of the second superheater 300, and after mixing with the cooled high-temperature molten salt (that is, the sub-high temperature molten salt) obtained from the first superheater 200, the saturated steam transported from the steam drum through the saturated steam pipeline 302 is heated to heat the saturated steam into slightly superheated steam (because the temperature of the sub-high temperature molten salt and the waste heat molten salt is not high enough, the superheat of the saturated steam is not enough, and high-temperature superheated steam cannot be obtained. At this time, slightly superheated steam with a lower temperature than the high-temperature superheated steam is obtained), and the system is improved. Efficiency. The steam superheater is an indirect heat exchanger, with one side being the molten salt side and the other side being the steam side.

[0056] The intermediate molten salt obtained from the second superheater 300 is transported to the evaporator 400, and the saturated water in the steam drum enters the evaporator 400 through the circulating liquid inlet. The intermediate molten salt heats the saturated water entering the evaporator 400, so that the saturated water becomes a steam-water mixture and enters the steam drum through the circulating liquid outlet. The steam-water mixture is separated into steam and water in the steam drum, and the saturated steam generated after the separation enters the second superheater 300 through the saturated steam pipeline 302. The saturated water generated after the separation drops to the steam drum and then returns to the evaporator 400 through the circulating liquid inlet to enter the next cycle.

[0057] After heat exchange, the intermediate molten salt is converted into heat exchange molten salt with a lower temperature. The heat exchange molten salt enters the economizer 500 to heat the feed water entering the economizer 500. The heated feed water becomes sub-saturated water, which enters the steam drum to replenish the steam drum. After heat exchange, the heat exchange molten salt becomes low-temperature molten salt with a lower temperature, which enters the low-temperature molten salt tank 600.

[0058] The above are only exemplary embodiments of the present invention and are not intended to limit the scope of the present invention. Any equivalent changes and modifications made by any person skilled in the art without departing from the concept and principle of the present invention shall fall within the scope of protection of the present invention.
