Description

[0002] As society's demand for energy continues to grow, the utilization rate of resources such as biomass is also increasing. At present, direct biomass combustion power generation has the disadvantages of high investment and low efficiency. Therefore, coal-fired coupled biomass power generation is usually adopted. This is a technology that fully utilizes the value of existing coal-fired power assets and utilizes biomass for energy. The direct combustion of biomass in coal-fired boilers has the advantages of high consumption level, high cycle efficiency, and low construction and operation and maintenance costs. It is widely used in biomass coupling power generation projects. The biomass powder transportation method is the key to the direct combustion of biomass in coal-fired boilers. It determines the scale, stability and energy consumption level of biomass processing.

[0003] Due to the low bulk density and poor fluidity of biomass powder, as well as the fact that the biomass crushing area is relatively far from the boiler combustion area, the existing biomass powder transportation method generally uses pneumatic conveying to transport the crushed biomass powder. However, pneumatic conveying of biomass powder faces problems such as low powder concentration, small conveying volume, and poor stability, making it difficult to meet the needs of large-scale blending of biomass in coal-fired boilers. In addition, pneumatic conveying of low-concentration biomass powder will lead to a decrease in combustion performance in the furnace and a significant increase in the amount of cold air entering the furnace, which is not conducive to ignition / combustion in the furnace and NOx emission control. At the same time, it increases the heat loss of boiler exhaust and reduces the thermal efficiency of the boiler.

In addition, the terms "first" and "second" are only used to distinguish in the description and have no special meaning.

[0062] Refer to the following Figure 1 The invention introduces a biomass powder pneumatic conveying system and its operation method and shutdown method.

[0063] It should be noted that Figure 1 The direction of the arrow in the biomass powder pneumatic conveying system is the flow direction of the airflow for conveying the biomass powder.

[0064] This embodiment provides a biomass powder pneumatic conveying system, which conveys biomass powder by pneumatic means.

[0065] Please refer to Figure 1Specifically, the biomass powder pneumatic conveying system includes a pneumatic conveying member 10, a feeding device 20, a gas-solid mixer 30, a gas-solid separation component 40 and a circulation device 50. Among them, the inlet of the pneumatic conveying member 10 is connected to the outside atmosphere, and the pneumatic conveying member 10 is used to supply air with a preset pressure to form an airflow with a preset pressure to convey biomass powder; the feeding device 20 is used to supply biomass powder; the gas inlet of the gas-solid mixer 30 is connected to the air outlet of the pneumatic conveying member 10, and the solid inlet of the gas-solid mixer 30 is connected to the discharge port of the feeding device 20, and the gas-solid mixer 30 is used to mix the biomass powder and air; the inlet of the gas-solid separation component 40 is connected to the outlet of the gas-solid mixer 30, and the gas-solid separation component 40 is used to perform gas-solid separation on the airflow carrying the biomass powder to divide the airflow carrying the biomass powder into a dense phase airflow and a dilute phase airflow; the inlet of the circulation device 50 is connected to the outlet section of the gas-solid separation component 40, the solid outlet of the circulation device 50 is connected to the feed port of the feeding device 20, and the gas outlet of the circulation device 50 is connected to the inlet section of the pneumatic conveying member 10 to inhale the dilute phase airflow and recycle it.

[0066] When in use, the air with a preset pressure output by the pneumatic conveying component 10 forms an airflow, which flows into the gas-solid mixer 30 to mix with the biomass powder, and carries the biomass powder to the gas-solid separation component 40 to realize the formation of dense phase airflow and dilute phase airflow. The dense phase airflow flows out to the output port to increase the concentration of biomass powder in the output airflow and reduce the output of gas; while the dilute phase airflow returns the air and biomass powder to the corresponding pneumatic conveying component 10 and feeding device 20 respectively through the circulation device 50 for recycling.

[0067] The biomass powder pneumatic conveying system in this embodiment forms resistance to the airflow carrying the biomass powder by setting up the gas-solid separation component 40 to impact the airflow, achieve gas-solid mixing and separation, thereby forming dense phase airflow and dilute phase airflow. The dense phase airflow is used for output, which improves the concentration, delivery volume and stability of the biomass powder in the airflow output by the biomass powder pneumatic conveying system, improves the ignition / combustion performance of the biomass and the stable combustion capacity of the boiler, reduces the emission of pollutants such as NOx, and reduces the amount of air entering the boiler, reduces the heat loss of boiler exhaust, and improves the thermal efficiency of the boiler. In addition, the dilute phase airflow is recycled again through the circulation device 50, which improves the utilization rate of the biomass powder pneumatic conveying system and helps to save energy and reduce emissions.

[0068] It should be noted that the above-mentioned preset pressure is the required pressure, that is, it is set according to the required air flow rate in the biomass powder pneumatic conveying system, and is not specifically limited here.

[0069] Please continue to refer to Figure 1In this embodiment, the pneumatic conveying member 10 includes a high-pressure blower 11, a second main pipeline 12 and a third main pipeline 13. The inlet of the second main pipeline 12 is connected to the outside atmosphere, the inlet of the high-pressure blower 11 is connected to the second main pipeline 12, the outlet of the high-pressure blower 11 is connected to the inlet of the third main pipeline 13, and the outlet of the third main pipeline 13 is connected to the gas-solid mixer 30. When in use, the high-pressure blower 11 drives the second main pipeline 12 to absorb air from the outside atmosphere and transport it to the third main pipeline 13, so that the third main pipeline 13 is circulated with air with a preset pressure.

[0070] Specifically, the high-pressure fan 11 is equipped with a variable frequency, explosion-proof motor to achieve the change of the operating frequency of the high-pressure fan 11, and has an explosion-proof function to improve safety.

[0071] Optionally, the pressure head of the high-pressure blower 11 has a pressure range of 10 kPa to 70 kPa to meet the transportation requirements of biomass powder in common boilers and other structures.

[0072] Furthermore, the inlet section of the pneumatic conveying member 10 is provided with a first regulating valve 90 . Specifically, the first regulating valve 90 is arranged in the second main pipeline 12 to adjust the amount of external air entering, thereby adjusting the supply amount of the airflow.

[0073] Optionally, the first regulating valve 90 is an electric explosion-proof valve or a pneumatic explosion-proof valve, that is, it can realize the opening, closing or regulation of the second main pipeline 12, which is not specifically limited here.

[0074] Furthermore, the outlet section of the pneumatic conveying component 10 is provided with a check structure 60. Specifically, the check structure 60 is arranged on the third main pipeline 13. The check structure 60 is used to prevent the biomass powder in the gas-solid mixer 30 from flowing back to the pneumatic conveying component 10, thereby avoiding the backflow of airflow when the pressure of the output structure such as the boiler is too high, thereby causing damage to various structures such as the high-pressure fan 11 in the pneumatic conveying component 10, thereby improving the reliability and safety of the use of various structures in the pneumatic conveying component 10.

[0075] Furthermore, the outlet section of the pneumatic conveying member 10 is provided with a swirl blade 14. Specifically, the swirl blade 14 is arranged on the third main pipeline 13 to increase the turbulence of the conveying air, to strengthen the mixing of the biomass powder and air in the gas-solid mixer 30, and to prevent the accumulation of the biomass powder.

[0076] In this embodiment, the feeding device 20 includes a powder bin 21, a first screw conveyor 22, and a second screw conveyor 23. The inlet of the powder bin 21 is connected to the feeding device; the inlet of the first screw conveyor 22 is connected to the powder bin 21, and the first screw conveyor 22 is horizontally arranged, and the first screw conveyor 22 is used for the spiral conveying of biomass powder; the inlet of the second screw conveyor 23 is connected to the outlet of the first screw conveyor 22, and the outlet of the second screw conveyor 23 is connected to the solid inlet of the gas-solid mixer 30, and the second screw conveyor 23 is inclined, and the second screw conveyor 23 is used for the spiral conveying of biomass powder. When in use, the operator can put biomass powder into the powder bin 21, and the biomass powder is mixed by the two screw conveyors in turn through the outlet of the powder bin 21, so as to improve the mixing uniformity and convey the biomass powder, thereby achieving more uniform transportation of the biomass powder. Furthermore, the first screw conveyor 22 is arranged horizontally, and the second screw conveyor 23 is arranged obliquely, which greatly reduces the accumulation and clogging of the biomass powder and improves the conveying effect of the biomass powder.

[0077] Specifically, the powder bin 21 is an inverted trapezoidal structure, and a large opening at the top serves as a feed inlet to enable external feeding or input of recycled materials from the circulation device 50 .

[0078] Optionally, a cone structure 24 is provided in the powder bin 21 to prevent the biomass powder from arching, thereby improving the flow effect of the biomass powder in the powder bin 21 .

[0079] Specifically, the side wall of the discharge port of the first screw conveyor 22 is an inclined wall to prevent the accumulation and blockage of the biomass powder, so that all the biomass powder can be put into the second screw conveyor 23.

[0080] Optionally, the first screw conveyor 22 and the second screw conveyor 23 are both equipped with variable frequency, explosion-proof motors to dynamically and accurately adjust the feeding amount of the biomass powder.

[0081] Furthermore, the first screw conveyor 22 and the second screw conveyor 23 adopt a shaftless screw conveying structure, which greatly improves the anti-winding performance of the screw conveying and avoids blockage.

[0082] Furthermore, the discharge section of the feeding device 20 is provided with a first air lock 70, which is used to prevent the airflow in the gas-solid mixer 30 from carrying powder back into the feeding device 20. Specifically, the first air lock 70 is arranged between the first screw conveyor 22 and the second screw conveyor 23 to prevent the airflow from carrying powder back into the feeding device 20.

[0083] In this embodiment, the gas-solid mixer 30 is a Venturi structure, that is, a structure in which the diameter at the throat is smaller than the diameter of the main body, which can increase the air flow rate at the throat and improve the mixing effect of biomass powder and air. At the same time, it can reduce the static pressure at the throat and prevent the return of biomass powder, thereby improving the reliability of the gas-solid mixer 30.

[0084] Optionally, the air velocity at the throat of the gas-solid mixer 30 is selected to be 50 m / s to 100 m / s, which can meet the requirements of improving the gas-solid mixing effect and preventing the return of biomass powder.

[0085] In this embodiment, the gas-solid separation component 40 includes a first main pipeline 41, the inlet of the first main pipeline 41 is connected to the outlet of the gas-solid mixer 30, and the outlet of the first main pipeline 41 is used to supply biomass powder to the outside; the first main pipeline 41 is provided with an arc bend 42, and the arc bend 42 is used to perform the first-stage gas-solid separation on the airflow carrying the biomass powder; the first main pipeline 41 is also provided with a gas-solid separation block 43, and along the flow direction of the airflow in the first main pipeline 41, the gas-solid separation block 43 is arranged downstream of the arc bend 42 to perform the second-stage gas-solid separation on the airflow carrying the biomass powder; the inlet of the circulation device 50 is connected to the downstream of the gas-solid separation block 43 to inhale the dilute phase airflow. In this arrangement, when the airflow carrying the biomass powder flows through the first main pipeline 41, it is subjected to two gas-solid separations by the pipe wall of the arc bend 42 and the gas-solid separation block 43, thereby realizing the concentration and separation of the biomass powder in the airflow, so as to realize the separation of the dense phase airflow and the dilute phase airflow. In addition, the arc bend 42, the gas-solid separation block 43 and the circulation device 50 are arranged in sequence along the flow direction of the airflow in the first main pipeline 41, so that the airflow carrying the biomass powder is separated twice and the dense phase airflow and the dilute phase airflow are directly separated and flowed out to avoid the airflow from mixing again.

[0086] Specifically, the air flow velocity in the first main pipeline 41 is 14 m / s to 30 m / s, which can realize the flow of the air flow in the first main pipeline 41, ensure the transportation, separation and recycling of the biomass powder, and avoid deposition.

[0087] Optionally, the arc-shaped bend 42 adopts a wear-resistant elbow with a large curvature radius, which can reduce the friction resistance during flow, has good wear resistance, and is better for separating the dense phase and the dilute phase in the airflow.

[0088] Further optionally, the gas-solid separation block 43 is made of wear-resistant parts, and the cross-sectional area of ​​the gas-solid separation block 43 accounts for 1 / 4 to 1 / 3 of the cross-sectional area of ​​the pipeline; such a configuration better realizes the separation of gas and solid, and realizes the separation of dense phase gas flow and dilute phase.

The dilute phase airflow enters the cyclone separator 52 through the first circulation pipe 51 for gas-solid separation, wherein the residual biomass powder flows into the return pipe 54 through the solid outlet of the cyclone separator 52 and flows to the feeding device 20 for secondary utilization, and the residual air flows into the second circulation pipe 53 through the gas outlet of the cyclone separator 52 and flows back to the inlet section of the pneumatic conveying member 10 for secondary utilization.

[0091] Optionally, the air flow rate in the first circulation duct 51 is 10 m / s to 30 m / s, which can achieve the suction and transportation of dilute phase airflow.

[0092] Furthermore, a second air lock 80 is provided at the solid outlet section of the circulation device 50 , that is, a second air lock 80 is provided on the return pipe 54 , and the second air lock 80 is used to prevent the airflow in the circulation device 50 from flowing into the feeding device 20 .

[0095] Optionally, the circulating air ratio is usually selected to be 20% to 60%, which can meet the use of common biomass powder pneumatic conveying systems.

[0096] Optionally, the second regulating valve 100 is an electric explosion-proof valve or a pneumatic explosion-proof valve, that is, it can realize the opening, closing or regulation of the second circulating pipeline, which is not specifically limited here.

[0097] This embodiment also provides a method for commissioning a biomass powder pneumatic conveying system to realize the operation of the biomass powder pneumatic conveying system and the conveying of biomass powder.
