Description
Technical Field
[0001] The present invention relates to the technical field of methanol preparation, and in particular to a system and process for preparing methanol by combining green hydrogen and carbon dioxide. Background Art
[0002] With the increase of industrialization and energy consumption, global carbon dioxide emissions continue to rise, leading to global warming and environmental degradation. In response to climate change, countries around the world have proposed emission reduction targets. This requires effective measures to reduce greenhouse gas emissions in the field of energy production and consumption. At the same time, the rapid development of renewable energy such as solar energy and wind energy has provided a rich source of electricity for hydrogen production by electrolysis of water. No carbon emissions are generated during the process of hydrogen production by electrolysis of water, so it is called "green hydrogen". Green hydrogen, as the cleanest ultimate energy, has the advantages of zero carbon emissions, storability, and transportability. It is an important direction for energy transformation. Hydrogen production by electrolysis of water using renewable energy can achieve time and space translation of energy and improve the flexibility of the power system.
[0003] In the prior art, the preparation of methanol by combining green hydrogen and carbon dioxide is an innovative technology that has emerged in recent years. This technology reacts the captured carbon dioxide with green hydrogen under the action of a catalyst to generate methanol, realizing the resource utilization of carbon dioxide and the efficient consumption of green hydrogen. Compared with the traditional coal-to-methanol, the process of preparing methanol by combining green hydrogen and carbon dioxide has the advantages of environmental friendliness, resource recycling, and high economic benefits. This process not only reduces carbon dioxide emissions, but also improves energy utilization efficiency, which helps to alleviate the shortage of fossil fuels and environmental pollution. In the preparation process of methanol, it is necessary to react carbon dioxide and green hydrogen through a reactor to prepare methanol. In order to improve the heat exchange effect of the internal tubes, the reactor will use a baffle to force the fluid to be baffled multiple times according to the prescribed distance, increase the turbulence of the fluid, and make the reaction more sufficient and efficient. However, the common baffle does not have a self-cleaning mechanism. After long-term use, the baffle inside the reactor needs to be disassembled, cleaned, and reassembled, which is time-consuming and labor-intensive in the process, affecting the preparation efficiency of methanol. How to invent a system and process for preparing methanol by combining green hydrogen and carbon dioxide to solve these problems has become a problem that needs to be solved by technicians in this field.

[0014] A process for preparing methanol by combining green hydrogen and carbon dioxide comprises the following steps: S1: Hydrogen production by water electrolysis Using electricity generated from renewable energy, water is split into hydrogen and oxygen using an electrolyser; S2: Hydrogen purification The hydrogen obtained in S1 is input into the scrubber, and the moisture and oxygen are removed respectively by dry adsorbent and membrane separation technology. The separated hydrogen enters the scrubber through the upper pipeline, and the hydrogen is cooled, washed and dripped by the dripping net to obtain pure hydrogen; S3: Carbon dioxide capture The absorption tower is used to capture and collect carbon dioxide from industrial emissions and the atmosphere. After the flue gas enters the absorption tower, it contacts the absorbent sprayed from the top of the tower in countercurrent, reacts chemically with the acidic carbon dioxide, and absorbs it. After absorption, the absorbent becomes a rich liquid rich in carbon dioxide and is discharged from the absorption tower; S4: Carbon dioxide release The rich liquid obtained by S3 is sent to the desorption tower through the pump body. The rich liquid in the desorption tower and the air sucked in by the exhaust fan of the desorption tower are in reverse contact in the tower. The carbon dioxide in the solution is gradually desorbed and discharged. The solution after desorption becomes a lean liquid, which flows out from the lower part of the desorption tower and enters the lean liquid tank. The lean liquid is pumped into the absorption tower through the lean liquid pump and recycled to continue the carbon dioxide absorption process. S5: Methanol Preparation The green hydrogen obtained in step S2 and the carbon dioxide obtained in step S4 are introduced into the reactor at a molar ratio, and a heating medium is introduced into the outer side of the tubes in the reactor to heat the tubes. The raw gas introduced into the tubes contacts with the catalyst to promote the mixing reaction of methanol. Under the action of the catalyst, the hydrogen and carbon dioxide react chemically in the reactor, and the generated methanol is discharged to the outside. S6: Methanol Purification The methanol obtained in step S5 is purified, and after the crude methanol enters the distillation tower 10, it is heated for evaporation and condensed for reflux to achieve separation of methanol from other components, thereby obtaining a high-purity methanol product.
[0015] The beneficial effects of the present invention are: The cleaning structure is driven by a motor to work during the preparation of methanol, and the structures of the outer walls at both ends of the baffle are cleaned and scraped to avoid the scaling caused by the long-term storage of the heating medium inside the reactor and outside the tubes, which affects the heat transfer effect of the baffle. The scaling can be cleaned in real time while working, saving the time required for subsequent disassembly and cleaning of the entire baffle, and improving the cleaning efficiency. The positioning mechanism provided between the installation block and the cleaning block and the cleaning block cooperates with the adjusting rod to ensure that the cleaning mechanism can pass through the tubes while working, and the scraper rod below the tubes scrapes and cleans the scale near the area around the tubes on the baffle plate, thereby avoiding the path of the cleaning mechanism being blocked by the tubes and affecting the cleaning range, so that the outer surface of the baffle plate can be completely cleaned, improving the effect of scale cleaning, ensuring the heat transfer effect of the baffle plate, and improving the rate of preparing methanol; The stirring mechanism is set up to make multiple blades rotate in sequence as the cleaning mechanism works. The surrounding medium is stirred during the rotation process, which can change the flow state of the shell-side fluid and form a more complex flow path, thereby increasing the degree of turbulence. The increase in the degree of turbulence helps to break the fluid boundary layer, improve the heat transfer coefficient, and thus improve the heat transfer efficiency of the entire reactor. At the same time, the rotating blades can also help to distribute the shell-side fluid more evenly, avoid short circuits or dead zones in the fluid in the reactor, and ensure that the fluid can fully contact the tubes, thereby improving the heat transfer effect. In some cases, solid particles or sediments in the fluid are prone to form scaling on the inner wall of the reactor or the surface of the tubes, affecting the heat transfer efficiency and the normal operation of the reactor. The rotating blades can reduce the occurrence of scaling by continuously changing the flow state of the fluid. BRIEF DESCRIPTION OF THE DRAWINGS

During the rotation process, the mounting blocks 63 and the cleaning blocks 64 clean and scrape the structures of the outer walls at both ends of the baffle plate 56 through the scraping grooves 8 opened at the bottom, so as to avoid scaling caused by long-term storage of the heating medium inside the reactor 5 and outside the tube array 57, which affects the heat transfer effect of the baffle plate 56.

The separated hydrogen enters the scrubber 4 through the upper pipeline, and the hydrogen is cooled, washed and dripped by the dripping net to obtain pure hydrogen; S3: Carbon dioxide capture The absorption tower 1 is used to capture and collect carbon dioxide from industrial emissions and the atmosphere. After the flue gas enters the absorption tower 1, it countercurrently contacts with the absorbent sprayed from the top of the tower, reacts chemically with the acidic carbon dioxide, and absorbs it. After absorption, the absorbent becomes a rich liquid rich in carbon dioxide and is discharged from the absorption tower 1; S4: Carbon dioxide release The rich liquid obtained by S3 is sent to the desorption tower 2 through the pump body. The rich liquid in the desorption tower 2 and the air sucked in by the exhaust fan of the desorption tower 2 are in reverse contact in the tower. The carbon dioxide in the solution is gradually desorbed and discharged. The solution after desorption becomes a lean liquid, which flows out from the lower part of the desorption tower 2 and enters the lean liquid tank.

10. A process for preparing methanol by combining green hydrogen and carbon dioxide according to claims 1-9, characterized in that: The following steps are involved: S1: Hydrogen production by water electrolysis Using electricity generated from renewable energy, water is split into hydrogen and oxygen using an electrolyzer (3); S2: Hydrogen purification The hydrogen obtained in S1 is input into the scrubber (4), and water and oxygen are removed respectively by using a dry adsorbent and a membrane separation technology. The separated hydrogen enters the scrubber (4) through an upper pipeline, and the hydrogen undergoes cooling, washing, and dripping with a dripping net to obtain pure hydrogen; S3: Carbon dioxide capture An absorption tower (1) is used to capture and collect carbon dioxide from industrial emissions and the atmosphere. After the flue gas enters the absorption tower (1), it is countercurrently contacted with an absorbent sprayed from the top of the tower, chemically reacts with the acidic carbon dioxide, and absorbs it. After the absorption, the absorbent becomes a rich liquid rich in carbon dioxide, which is discharged from the absorption tower (1); S4: Carbon dioxide release The rich liquid obtained by S3 is sent to the desorption tower (2) through the pump body. The rich liquid in the desorption tower (2) and the air sucked into the desorption tower (2) by the exhaust fan are in reverse contact in the tower. The carbon dioxide in the solution is gradually desorbed and discharged. The solution after desorption becomes a lean liquid, which flows out from the lower part of the desorption tower (2) and enters the lean liquid tank. The lean liquid is pumped into the absorption tower (1) through the lean liquid pump, and is recycled to continue the carbon dioxide absorption process. S5: Methanol Preparation The green hydrogen obtained in step S2 and the carbon dioxide obtained in step S4 are introduced into the reactor (5) at a molar ratio of 3:1, a heating medium is introduced into the outer side of the tube array (57) inside the reactor (5) to heat the tube array (57), the raw gas introduced into the tube array (57) contacts with the catalyst to promote the mixing reaction of methanol, and under the action of the catalyst, the hydrogen and the carbon dioxide undergo a chemical reaction in the reactor (5), and the generated methanol is discharged to the outside; S6: Methanol Purification The methanol obtained in step S5 is purified, and after the crude methanol enters the distillation tower (10), it is heated for evaporation and condensed for reflux to separate the methanol from other components, thereby obtaining a high-purity methanol product.
