Description
Technical Field
[0001] The invention relates to the field of cement rotary kilns, and in particular to a high-temperature ammonia burner based on catalytic cracking of ammonia to produce hydrogen and atomized combustion of liquid ammonia and an operation method thereof, which are used for developing a new type of zero-carbon burner. Background Art
[0002] Climate change is one of the main threats to the earth's environment. Carbon dioxide emitted into the atmosphere from fossil energy has exacerbated global warming. To this end, my country has set the goal of achieving carbon peak and carbon neutrality. Currently, the cement production industry accounts for 13% of the country's carbon emissions, second only to the power and steel industries.
[0003] In order to reduce carbon emissions from fossil energy, it is necessary to vigorously develop green new energy, including photovoltaics, wind power, etc. Due to the strong random volatility of wind and solar energy, the low utilization rate of new energy, resulting in waste of resources, so energy storage technology is needed to smooth the peak and fill the valley. Hydrogen energy, as a kind of energy storage technology, has the advantages of being green, efficient, carbon-free, and having a long storage time. It is an important part of the future energy system and will help accelerate the green and low-carbon transformation of high-energy-consuming and high-carbon emission industries. However, the large-scale application of hydrogen energy urgently needs to break through low-cost and high-efficiency fuel cell technology and low-cost and safe hydrogen storage and transportation technology. Among them, the poor safety and high cost of hydrogen storage and transportation have become the main difficulties in the development of hydrogen energy.
[0004] As a hydrogen carrier, ammonia has the characteristics of high energy density, low storage and transportation cost, and high safety, and is expected to break through the bottleneck of hydrogen energy development. However, in the application process of ammonia fuel, there are problems such as low flame propagation speed, difficult ignition, poor flame stability, NO x Problems such as high emissions need to be addressed urgently.
[0005] Scholars in this field have conducted in-depth research on the problems of difficult ammonia ignition and poor flame stability, including the addition of fossil fuels to ammonia, ammonia mixed with hydrogen, plasma combustion-assisted combustion and staged combustion technology. The addition of fossil fuels to ammonia can effectively increase the flame propagation speed of the fuel, but it cannot completely solve the carbon emission problem; ammonia mixed with hydrogen combustion can increase the flame propagation speed without additional carbon emissions. The Chinese patents with patent application numbers CN202210916289.6 and CN202310260532.8 use ammonia online cracking hydrogen production technology to greatly stabilize ammonia. Flame, but it is still difficult to achieve stable combustion of ammonia at a large flow rate; plasma can enhance combustion through thermal effects, chemical effects and transport effects, which can effectively reduce the ignition delay time and increase the flame propagation speed. The Chinese patents with patent application numbers CN202111216787.1, CN202110298162.8 and CN202310426844.1 have successfully applied plasma ignition technology to the ignition and stabilization of aviation kerosene in aircraft engines under extreme conditions, and have achieved outstanding results, but there are few reports in the cement industry. The cement rotary kiln has a very high temperature requirement for the burner outlet (1800 degrees), while the temperature of most ammonia burners is around 1100 degrees. Therefore, it is urgent to develop a high-temperature ammonia burner for cement rotary kilns.
[0006] In response to the above-mentioned problems such as low flame temperature of ammonia burners, the present invention proposes a high-temperature ammonia burner solution based on catalytic cracking of ammonia to produce hydrogen and atomized combustion of liquid ammonia, which can effectively solve the problems of low ammonia combustion temperature, difficult ammonia ignition at large flow rate, unstable combustion, etc. Summary of the invention
