Description

Technical Field

[0001] The invention relates to a YHL synthesis tower, a YHL preparation system and a YHL green ammonia synthesis method for photovoltaic wind power generation hydrogen production, belonging to the technical field of electrolyzing hydrated ammonia using wind energy or solar energy, and belonging to the technical field of wind energy industry or solar energy industry. Background Art

[0002] Solar energy is renewable and environmentally friendly, and this advantage has led many countries, including China, to focus on developing solar energy as a new energy industry. Driven by my country's huge and diverse application market, my country's photovoltaic applications are constantly deepening, and various "photovoltaic" applications are emerging one after another.

[0003] Wind power generation is the process of converting wind kinetic energy into mechanical kinetic energy, and then converting mechanical energy into electrical kinetic energy. As a clean and renewable energy source, wind energy has great potential and is increasingly valued by countries around the world. Both at home and abroad, great importance is attached to using wind power to generate electricity and develop new energy. my country is rich in wind energy resources, with a developable wind energy reserve of about 1 billion kW.

[0004] One of the future trends in energy development is to use green electricity generated by renewable energy (photovoltaic, wind power, etc.) to electrolyze water to produce green hydrogen, produce nitrogen through air separation, and then produce green ammonia through the synthesis reaction of hydrogen and nitrogen. Using green ammonia as fuel to achieve zero carbon emissions is one of the trends in future energy development.

[0005] However, the pain points of using photovoltaic or wind power to electrolyze ammonia water are: photovoltaic / wind power generation is greatly affected by the weather, power generation is uneven, and hydrogen production by electrolysis of water is uneven, making it difficult to produce continuously and stably. It is often necessary to shut down at night, on rainy days, or in windless weather. However, after the shutdown and cooling, it usually takes about 7 days to restart the equipment to debug and stabilize and resume production, which not only brings huge energy consumption, but also seriously affects efficiency and production capacity, and cannot meet the continuous production needs of the industry. Summary of the invention

[0006] The present invention provides a YHL synthesis tower, a YHL preparation system and a YHL green ammonia synthesis method for photovoltaic and wind power generation to produce hydrogen and synthesize green ammonia. The YHL synthesis tower can realize continuous and stable operation of green ammonia preparation when hydrogen is produced by electrolyzing water through intermittent power generation such as photovoltaic or wind power generation, without the need to shut down due to weather influences.

[0007] In order to solve the above technical problems, the technical solutions adopted by the present invention are as follows:

[0009] It includes a synthesis tower body, an inner tube, an air distribution pipe, an air collecting pipe, a first cooling pipe, a second cooling pipe, a temperature equalizing pipe, a preheater, an air intake main pipe, a central heating pipe and a transition pipe;

[0010] The inner tube is located inside the synthesis tower body, and a gap is left between the inner tube and the synthesis tower body to form a sandwich structure, and the top of the sandwich structure is connected with the top of the inner tube;

[0015] A primary cold air inlet is provided at the top of the synthesis tower body, and the primary cold air inlet is connected to the air distribution pipe through a transition pipe; a secondary cold air inlet, a discharge port and a waste discharge port are provided at the bottom of the synthesis tower body, and the secondary cold air inlet is connected to the sandwich structure between the inner tube and the synthesis tower body.

[0016] No air holes are provided on the above-mentioned air distribution pipes, air collecting pipes and temperature equalizing pipes.

[0017] YHL refers to optimized controlled continuous production. The preheater is provided with an air inlet and an air outlet. The raw gas enters from the air inlet, is preheated, and then flows out from the air outlet. The preheater uses the temperature of the gas in the inner cylinder to preheat the temperature of the newly-input raw material. Photovoltaic and wind power generation hydrogen production refers to the use of photovoltaic power generation or wind power generation to produce hydrogen.

[0018] When in use, the raw mixed gas (a mixture of nitrogen and hydrogen) enters from the air inlet main pipe, is preheated by the preheater, enters the central heating tube for heating, and then flows out from the top of the central heating tube, and enters the porous catalyst layer for frequent catalytic reaction. The present application is provided with a secondary cold air inlet and a primary cold air inlet at the same time, and low-temperature reaction raw gas can be input to the secondary cold air inlet and the primary cold air inlet according to the reaction needs, so as to form cooling for the inner tube and the porous catalyst layer.

The catalytically synthesized ammonia is discharged from the discharge port at the bottom of the synthesis tower body.

[0019] The above-mentioned arrangement of the primary and secondary cold air inlets not only realizes the cooling of the inner cylinder and the catalyst layer and realizes precise temperature control, but also eliminates the need to introduce additional cooling media, thereby improving energy utilization.

[0040] The liquid ammonia in the liquid ammonia storage tank is transported to the target container by a delivery pump.

[0041] Pump bodies, instruments and other equipment can be connected to each pipeline as needed.

[0042] A method for producing ammonia from YHL, using the above-mentioned YHL preparation system for producing hydrogen and synthesizing green ammonia from photovoltaic and wind power generation, comprises the following steps:

[0043] 1) Close all control valves, open the central heating pipe on the synthesis tower body, so that the temperature inside the synthesis tower body reaches 300-350°C, and then open the control valves except control valve K2 and control valve K3;

[0044] 2) The nitrogen-hydrogen mixed raw material gas in the nitrogen-hydrogen storage tank passes through the first delivery branch pipe A, the synthesis cycle compressor, the seventh delivery pipe, the first heat exchanger, the eighth delivery pipe and the air intake main pipe in sequence, and then enters the preheater in the synthesis tower body, and then is heated by the central heating pipe, flows out from the top of the central heating pipe, enters the porous catalyst layer, and is catalytically reacted to generate ammonia;

[0045] 3) Ammonia flows out from the discharge port at the bottom of the synthesis tower body, enters the first heat exchanger through the second delivery pipe, is cooled by the nitrogen-hydrogen mixed raw material gas (that is, the nitrogen-hydrogen mixed raw material gas is heated by the gas flowing out from the discharge port at the bottom of the synthesis tower body), enters the second heat exchanger through the third delivery pipe for secondary cooling, and then is sent to the ammonia separator through the fourth delivery pipe to separate the unreacted nitrogen and hydrogen, and the liquid ammonia in the ammonia separator enters the liquid ammonia storage tank through the fifth delivery pipe;

[0046] 4) The unreacted nitrogen and hydrogen separated by the ammonia separator enter the synthesis cycle compressor through the sixth delivery pipe to mix with the nitrogen and hydrogen mixed raw material gas, and then enter the synthesis tower body for inner cycle reaction after passing through the seventh delivery pipe, the first heat exchanger, the eighth delivery pipe and the air inlet main pipe in sequence;

[0047] 5) During the reaction process, the opening of the control valve K2 and the control valve K3 are controlled, and the nitrogen-hydrogen mixed raw material gas directly output from the nitrogen-hydrogen storage tank (delivered by the first delivery branch pipe B and the first delivery branch pipe C) is used to cool the inner tube and the porous catalyst layer, so that the temperature of the inner tube and the porous catalyst is maintained at 300-350°C, and the pressure is maintained at 1-7MPa; the low-temperature reaction raw gas entering from the secondary cold air inlet cools the side wall of the inner tube from bottom to top, and finally flows from the top of the sandwich structure into the inner tube and enters the porous catalyst layer for reaction; the low-temperature reaction raw gas entering from the primary cold air inlet enters the gas distribution pipe through the transition pipe, circulates between the gas distribution pipe, the temperature equalizing pipe and the gas collecting pipe, forms cooling for the porous catalyst layer, and when flowing through the first cooling pipe and the second cooling pipe, it flows into the porous catalyst layer through the air holes for reaction;

[0048] 6) When the hydrogen production capacity of the electrolytic hydrogen production device has been or is about to be affected by weather, the amount of hydrogen and nitrogen entering the synthesis tower body and the amount of liquid ammonia taken out are adjusted by adjusting the opening of the control valve K4, and the temperature in the synthesis tower body is controlled to be maintained at 300-350°C and the pressure is maintained at 1-7MPa by adjusting the opening of the control valve K1, control valve K2, control valve K3, control valve K8 and adjusting the operating frequency of the synthesis cycle compressor to achieve continuous operation.

[0049] When it is known that hydrogen electrolysis will be affected by weather, step 6 can be initiated, which significantly improves the predictability of production.

[0050] The above method can operate continuously, stably and efficiently under the condition that the electrolytic hydrogen production device has sufficient power supply. When the electrolytic hydrogen production device has been or is about to be affected by weather and the hydrogen production is affected, low-material continuous operation and heat recovery can also be achieved.

[0051] The temperature of the nitrogen-hydrogen mixed raw gas in the above-mentioned nitrogen-hydrogen storage tank is about 20-30°C. The nitrogen-hydrogen mixed raw gas first passes through the synthesis cycle compressor to form a stable pressure, and then enters the synthesis tower after being heated by the product, which not only ensures the stability of operation but also reduces energy consumption.

[0052] The first heat exchanger of the present application utilizes the product to heat the raw material, thereby realizing both the cooling of the product and the heating of the raw material, which is ingenious, reasonable, energy-saving and environmentally friendly.

[0053] In the above step 5), by controlling the opening of the control valve K2 and the control valve K3, the material is fed from the top and the bottom of the synthesis tower body at the same time, so as to achieve balanced control of the temperature of the inner cylinder and the porous catalyst layer.

[0054] The present application provides frequency conversion control for a synthetic cycle compressor.

[0055] In the above step 6), reducing or closing the control valve K2 / K3 / K8 can reduce the heat taken away, thereby reducing the hydrogen and nitrogen materials that need to maintain the temperature reaction in the tower. By adjusting the opening of the control valve K4 / K41 and the operating frequency of the synthesis cycle compressor, the amount of hydrogen and nitrogen entering the synthesis tower and the amount of liquid ammonia taken out are adjusted to ensure that the temperature T1 / T2 / T3 (T1 / T2 / T3 refers to the temperature of the upper, middle and lower parts of the synthesis tower body, that is, the upper, middle and lower parts of the synthesis tower body are all equipped with temperature measuring devices) are maintained at the reaction temperature, thereby achieving continuous operation. When the power supply is restored, it can be operated according to steps 2)-5).

[0056] The synthesis of ammonia through nitrogen and hydrogen is an exothermic reaction. When the unit is started, once the temperature in the synthesis tower reaches the specified temperature, continuous heating is not required. At the same time, materials can be fed in multiple directions as needed to lower the temperature.

[0057] The hydrogen produced by the electrolytic hydrogen production device is purified by the hydrogen purification device and then enters the high-pressure unit for compression with the nitrogen produced by the nitrogen production device in a ratio of 3:(1-1.2) (i.e., hydrogen: nitrogen=3:(1-1.2)). The compressed nitrogen-hydrogen mixed gas enters the nitrogen-hydrogen storage tank;

[0058] The raw material components of the porous catalyst include, by mass percentage, 50-70% austenitic iron powder, 15-20% silica gel, and the balance of auxiliary agents, wherein the auxiliary agent is a mixture of kaolin, calcium carbonate powder and diatomaceous earth in a mass ratio of 1: (0.2-0.5): (1-1.2); the preparation method of the catalyst is as follows: the austenitic iron powder, silica gel and auxiliary agents are uniformly mixed, extruded into granules, heated to 800-1000°C at a speed of 6-8°C / min under nitrogen protection, calcined for 8-10 hours, and cooled naturally to obtain the porous catalyst. The porous catalyst has high strength and good stability and can be used continuously for more than 3 years.

[0059] The austenitic iron used in the present application can be ground from austenitic iron, or directly purchased from the market.

[0060] The raw materials not specifically described in this application were of analytical grade AR.

[0061] The present invention can react quickly at low pressure and low temperature. The reaction pressure in the prior art is about 35MPa and the temperature is 500-600°C. However, the present invention can quickly complete the reaction at a reaction pressure of about 1-7MPa and a temperature of 300-350°C.

[0062] The technologies not mentioned in the present invention are all referred to the prior art.

[0063] The present invention has the following beneficial effects.

[0064] 1) By setting the primary and secondary cold air inlets on the synthesis tower body and improving the related structures, balanced cooling of the inner tube and the catalyst layer is achieved, precise temperature control is achieved, and no additional cooling medium is required, thus improving energy utilization, simple structure and easy modification.

[0065] 2) When the production of hydrogen by electrolyzing water using photovoltaic power generation or wind power generation is affected by weather, the opening of control valve K1, control valve K2, control valve K3, control valve K8 and the operating frequency of the synthesis cycle compressor can be adjusted to achieve low-material continuous and stable operation and recover heat without stopping the operation, thereby reducing or avoiding the impact of weather on green ammonia production, improving the predictability of production operation, and reducing or avoiding production problems caused by downtime.

[0066] 3) The unreacted gas can be recycled repeatedly, which improves the conversion rate and material utilization rate, and the reaction rate is fast, which can be industrialized.

[0067] 4) Using the product to heat the raw materials, killing two birds with one stone, with a clever and reasonable structure and energy saving. BRIEF DESCRIPTION OF THE DRAWINGS

[0098] Example 4

[0099] On the basis of Example 3, the following improvements are further made: the first heat exchanger is a shell-and-tube heat exchanger; the second heat exchanger is a tube-and-tube heat exchanger; the control valve K5 is arranged on the end of the third delivery pipe connected to the first hot material outlet, and the control valve K6 is arranged on the end of the third delivery pipe connected to the second hot material inlet; the control valve K9 is arranged on the end of the sixth delivery pipe connected to the top gas outlet of the ammonia separator, and the control valve K10 is arranged on the end of the sixth delivery pipe connected to the inlet of the synthesis cycle compressor. In this example, the synthesis cycle compressor is a variable frequency device. The liquid ammonia in the liquid ammonia storage tank is transported to the target container by a delivery pump. Pump bodies, instruments and other equipment can be connected to each pipeline as needed.

[0100] The method for producing ammonia using the YHL preparation system for photovoltaic and wind power generation to produce hydrogen and synthesize green ammonia comprises the following steps:

[0101] 1) Close all control valves, open the central heating pipe on the synthesis tower body, so that the temperature inside the synthesis tower body reaches 300-350°C, and then open the control valves except control valve K2 and control valve K3;

[0102] 2) The hydrogen produced by the electrolytic hydrogen production device is purified by the hydrogen purification device, and then enters the high-pressure unit for compression with the nitrogen produced by the nitrogen production device at a ratio of 3:1.2, and the compressed nitrogen-hydrogen mixed gas enters the nitrogen-hydrogen storage tank; the nitrogen-hydrogen mixed raw material gas in the nitrogen-hydrogen storage tank passes through the first delivery branch pipe A, the synthesis cycle compressor, the seventh delivery pipe, the first heat exchanger, the eighth delivery pipe and the air intake main pipe in sequence, and then enters the preheater in the synthesis tower body, and then is heated by the central heating pipe, flows out from the top of the central heating pipe, and enters the porous catalyst layer to catalyze the reaction to generate ammonia;

[0103] 3) Ammonia flows out from the discharge port at the bottom of the synthesis tower body, enters the first heat exchanger through the second delivery pipe, is cooled by the nitrogen-hydrogen mixed raw material gas (that is, the nitrogen-hydrogen mixed raw material gas is heated by the gas flowing out from the discharge port at the bottom of the synthesis tower body), enters the second heat exchanger through the third delivery pipe for secondary cooling, and then is sent to the ammonia separator through the fourth delivery pipe to separate the unreacted nitrogen and hydrogen, and the liquid ammonia in the ammonia separator enters the liquid ammonia storage tank through the fifth delivery pipe;

[0104] 4) The unreacted nitrogen and hydrogen separated by the ammonia separator enter the synthesis cycle compressor through the sixth delivery pipe to mix with the nitrogen and hydrogen mixed raw material gas, and then enter the synthesis tower body for inner cycle reaction after passing through the seventh delivery pipe, the first heat exchanger, the eighth delivery pipe and the air inlet main pipe in sequence;

[0105] 5) During the reaction process, the opening of the control valve K2 and the control valve K3 are controlled, and the nitrogen-hydrogen mixed raw material gas directly output from the nitrogen-hydrogen storage tank is used to cool the inner tube and the porous catalyst layer, so that the temperature of the inner tube and the porous catalyst is maintained at 300°C and the pressure is maintained at 2MPa; the low-temperature reaction raw gas entering from the secondary cold air inlet cools the side wall of the inner tube from bottom to top, and finally flows from the top of the sandwich structure into the inner tube and enters the porous catalyst layer for reaction; the low-temperature reaction raw gas entering from the primary cold air inlet enters the gas distribution pipe through the transition pipe, circulates between the gas distribution pipe, the temperature equalizing pipe and the gas collecting pipe, forms cooling for the porous catalyst layer, and when flowing through the first cooling pipe and the second cooling pipe, it flows into the porous catalyst layer through the air holes for reaction;

[0106] 6) When the hydrogen production capacity of the electrolytic hydrogen production device has been or will be affected by weather, the amount of hydrogen and nitrogen entering the synthesis tower body and the amount of liquid ammonia taken out are adjusted by adjusting the opening of the control valve K4, and the temperature in the synthesis tower body is controlled to be maintained at 300℃ ( Figure 3The temperatures of T1 / T2 / T3 are all 300°C), and the pressure is maintained at 2MPa to achieve continuous operation.

[0107] In this example, the raw material components of the porous catalyst include: 70% 200-mesh austenitic iron powder, 20% organic silica gel (Doher-711, Sains) and 10% additives, the additives are a mixture of 325-mesh kaolin, 250-mesh calcium carbonate powder and 300-mesh diatomaceous earth in a mass ratio of 1:0.3:1; the preparation method of the catalyst is: the austenitic iron powder, silica gel and additives are mixed evenly, extruded into granules, heated to 900°C at a rate of 6°C / min under nitrogen protection, calcined for 8 hours, and cooled naturally to obtain a porous catalyst. This catalyst has high strength, no powdering, good stability, and can be used continuously for more than 3 years. In this example, the synthesis rate of ammonia is: 65mmol / (gh), the single conversion rate is more than 37%, and the cycle conversion rate reaches more than 95%.

[0108] The temperature of the nitrogen-hydrogen mixed raw material gas in the nitrogen-hydrogen storage tank is about 25°C. The nitrogen-hydrogen mixed raw material gas first passes through the synthesis cycle compressor to form a stable pressure, and then enters the synthesis tower after being heated by the product, which not only ensures the stability of operation, but also reduces energy consumption. The above method can operate continuously, stably and efficiently under the condition that the electrolytic hydrogen production device has sufficient power supply. When the electrolytic hydrogen production device has been or is about to be affected by the weather and the hydrogen production is affected, it can operate continuously and stably with low materials.

[0109] Comparative Example 1

[0110] The difference from Example 4 is that 200 mesh reduced iron powder is used, and the rest is the same as Example 4. Ammonia can only be synthesized at 500-600°C and 35MPa. The ammonia synthesis rate is 610μmol / (gh).

[0111] Comparative Example 2

[0114] The difference from Example 4 is that all the auxiliary agents are diatomaceous earth, and the rest are the same as Example 4. The rate of synthetic ammonia is 4500 μmol / (gh).

[0115] Comparative Example 4

[0116] The difference from Example 4 is that all the auxiliary agents are calcium carbonate powder, and the rest are the same as Example 4. The rate of synthetic ammonia is 2200 μmol / (gh).
