Description

Technical Field

[0001] The invention discloses a deep-sea aquaculture system based on photovoltaic-salinity difference coupled power generation and hydrogen production, and relates to the technical field of marine energy and hydrogen production. Background Art

[0002] With the growing global demand for clean energy, the ocean provides ideal conditions for photovoltaic power generation with its vast development space, unobstructed sea surface and abundant solar energy resources. Nowadays, offshore photovoltaic power generation has become an important way to promote the development of renewable energy due to its high efficiency in solar energy utilization and the advantages of saving land resources. Further combining the existing offshore power generation platform with fishery farming can not only improve the economic benefits of photovoltaic power generation, but also provide new growth points for fisheries, forming a win-win situation of sustainable development.

[0003] Photovoltaic power generation systems convert solar energy into electrical energy through the photovoltaic effect. However, photovoltaic cells convert most of the solar energy into heat energy during operation, which causes the temperature of the photovoltaic panels to rise. Studies have shown that high temperatures can reduce the carrier mobility inside photovoltaic cells, thereby inhibiting the current and voltage inside the cells, which not only reduces the efficiency of photovoltaic power generation, but also accelerates the aging of photovoltaic modules.

[0004] Compared with traditional long-distance power transmission, offshore electrolysis hydrogen production technology not only avoids geographical restrictions in the power transmission process, but also eliminates energy loss in the power transmission process. However, the current offshore electrolysis hydrogen production technology still faces some challenges: First, the energy consumption problem, especially the high-temperature evaporation of water and the electrolysis of water both require a lot of energy; second, the purity and output of hydrogen produced by electrolysis are closely related to the stability of power supply. If the entire process of seawater desalination and hydrogen production by electrolysis relies entirely on photovoltaic power generation systems, it will be difficult to ensure a stable power supply.

[0005] Therefore, improving the photoelectric conversion efficiency, enhancing the stability of the hydrogen production process, and optimizing energy utilization methods are the key to current technological research. Summary of the invention

The system integrates offshore photovoltaic power generation, salinity difference power generation, seawater desalination hydrogen production and deep-sea aquaculture functions. Through multi-functional synergy, it maximizes the use of offshore space resources and improves overall economic benefits; and proposes a new seawater heating and desalination method to reduce the energy consumption of the steam generation process, thereby ensuring that the electricity generated by photovoltaic power generation flows more stably to electrolytic hydrogen production, improving the stability of hydrogen production products; seawater is also used for photovoltaic panel cooling before heating, improving photovoltaic power generation efficiency and extending service life; in addition, the concentrated seawater produced in the seawater desalination process can be further used for salinity difference power generation to optimize overall efficiency.

[0045] The present invention efficiently integrates photovoltaic power generation and cooling modules, seawater desalination and electrolysis modules, salinity difference power generation modules, gas storage modules and seafood farming modules, thereby reducing the energy consumption of seawater desalination while improving the efficiency of photovoltaic power generation, and effectively utilizing the by-products in the seawater desalination process, thereby optimizing the overall energy conversion and resource utilization efficiency of the system.

[0046] In order to enable those skilled in the art to better understand the technical solution of the present invention, the deep-sea aquaculture system based on photovoltaic-salinity difference coupled power generation and hydrogen production proposed by the present invention will be described in detail below in conjunction with the accompanying drawings and specific implementation methods.

[0047] Figure 1 , Figure 2 The photovoltaic power generation and cooling module 1 shown mainly includes a photovoltaic panel 101, a water cooling pipeline 104 and an auxiliary supporting structure; wherein the photovoltaic panel 101 is fixed on a photovoltaic support frame 106 through a photovoltaic clip 102, and is used to receive sunlight and convert it into electrical energy; the converted electrical energy is stored through an electrically connected battery 8 for subsequent use; the back plate of the photovoltaic panel 101 is made of a high thermal conductivity material, which can quickly transfer the waste heat generated during operation to the water cooling pipeline 104; the water cooling pipeline 104 is evenly distributed on the back plate of the photovoltaic panel 101, and is connected to the water pipe 105 on both sides; during the operation of the cooling system, low-temperature seawater is supplied from one side to the cooling pipe 105; Water flows into the water pipe, and after absorbing the waste heat from the photovoltaic panel, it flows into the water supply manifold 203 from the other end to form a complete cooling system; the photovoltaic panel clip 102 not only fixes the photovoltaic panel, but also facilitates the modular installation and replacement of the photovoltaic panel; the photoreceptor 103 is used to monitor the direction of sunlight in real time and guide the photovoltaic panel to adjust the angle to maximize the solar energy capture efficiency; the hydraulic support mechanism 107 is composed of four independent hydraulic rods, each of which is connected to the photovoltaic support frame 106 through a ball joint, and cooperates with the photoreceptor 103, and can independently adjust their respective heights, accurately control the direction of the photovoltaic panel 101, and maximize the energy capture effect.

[0048] Figure 3 The collector 2 shown is arranged above the support frame 205. After cooling the photovoltaic panels, the seawater is passed into the heat absorption coil 201 inside the collector through the water supply manifold 203. After heating, it is passed into the seabed heat exchange steam generating chamber 4 through the high-temperature water outlet pipe 204; the inside of the high-temperature water outlet pipe 204 should be provided with an insulation layer filled with polyurethane, rock wool, etc.

[0049] A transparent glass cover 202 is arranged on the outside of the collector 2, and its main function is to provide protection for the internal heat absorbing coil 201 while transmitting solar radiation, so as to prevent the internal pipeline from being corroded by rain, snow and high-salt environment of the ocean; in addition, the glass cover can also reduce the convection and radiation heat dissipation loss caused by the increase in temperature of the internal heat absorbing coil 201 by forming a greenhouse effect; the internal heat absorbing coil 201 can be made of copper tube, and the surface is coated with black chrome coating to absorb solar radiation to the maximum extent while reducing the reflection of thermal radiation; the spiral design of the internal heat absorbing coil 201 not only increases the contact area with the internal medium, but also effectively enhances the convective heat transfer efficiency, ensuring that the internal seawater is heated evenly; a vacuum interlayer is arranged between the internal heat absorbing coil 201 and the transparent glass cover 202, and the vacuum state almost completely prevents the heat loss through convection and conduction, thereby improving the heat collection efficiency; the open end of the vacuum interlayer needs to be sealed by a special process to maintain a long-term vacuum state.

[0050] The heat energy of the collector 2 is obtained by reflecting and focusing sunlight through the heliostat field 3 outside the floating platform; the collector 2 can be set higher and larger, and increasing the heat absorption surface area of ​​the collector can effectively increase the overall heat collection capacity. At the same time, raising the support frame 205 of the collector can also prevent the collector 2 from blocking the photovoltaic panel 101.

[0051] The heat exchange steam generating cabin 4 is located underwater. After the high-temperature seawater enters the cabin through the high-temperature water outlet pipe 204, it quickly dissipates heat and forms a temperature difference with the low-temperature environment. Part of the seawater evaporates into water vapor due to the temperature drop; the outside of the heat exchange steam generating cabin 4 is in contact with the low-temperature seawater to provide continuous cooling, thereby maintaining an efficient evaporation process; the water vapor generated by the temperature difference enters the electrolytic cell 5 through the water vapor outlet 401 on the side of the cabin body; the concentrated seawater generated in the seawater desalination process flows into the salt difference power generation cabin 6 through the concentrated seawater outlet 402.

[0052] Figure 4 , Figure 5 The electrolytic chamber of the electrolytic cell 5 shown is separated by a proton exchange membrane 503, and the membrane assembly is fixed by a clip to ensure that the solution can flow evenly; the electrode system is electrically connected to the battery 8, and the battery 8 provides the electrolytic cell with electricity generated by the photovoltaic power generation module; the anode electrode 501 and the cathode electrode 502 are respectively arranged at both ends of the electrolytic cell; the gas generated by electrolysis is introduced into the corresponding gas collection unit through the gas outlet 504 at the top of the electrolytic cell.

[0053] Figure 4 , Figure 5The salt difference power generation cabin 6 shown uses reverse electrodialysis (RED) to generate electricity. The power generation cabin shown in the figure is only provided with a pair of ion exchange membranes, and a cation exchange membrane 601 (CEM) and an anion exchange membrane 602 (AEM) are arranged in sequence in the exchange membrane pair; the ion exchange membrane separates the salt difference power generation cabin 6 into a concentrated chamber and a dilute chamber, and the membrane adjacent to the electrode plate is a cation exchange membrane 601 to prevent anions in the electrode chamber solution from penetrating and causing membrane pollution; the cathode and anode of the electrode system 603 are respectively located at the two ends of the salt difference power generation cabin; the membrane assembly is fixed by a clip to ensure that the solution can flow evenly.

[0054] Concentrated seawater and ordinary seawater flow into the concentrated chamber and the dilute chamber separated by the ion exchange membrane through the concentrated seawater outlet 402 and the ordinary seawater inlet 605 respectively. The concentration difference generated on both sides of the ion exchange membrane drives ions with different charges to transfer through the selective ion exchange membrane, thereby forming a current between the electrodes, and then accumulating electric potential on the electrodes, which becomes the driving force for power generation.

[0055] The electrode system 603 is electrically connected to the storage battery 8 for storing the electric energy generated by the salt difference power generation.

[0056] After the salt difference power generation is completed, the seawater in the cabin is discharged through the drain pipe 604. At this time, the concentration of seawater is reduced, avoiding the impact of high-concentration seawater directly discharged on the environment.

[0057] The gas storage module 7 is used to store the gas generated during the electrolysis process. Oxygen is stored in the oxygen storage tank 701. The oxygen storage tank 701 is provided with an exhaust valve 703 to provide the necessary dissolved oxygen in the water for aquaculture. Hydrogen is stored in the hydrogen storage tank 702.

[0058] A fixed frame steel truss 12 is provided outside the underwater cabin, and the underwater heat exchange steam generating cabin 4, the electrolyzer 5, the salt difference power generation cabin 6 and the gas storage module 7 are firmly connected to the steel truss 12 by bolts; the four corners of the steel truss 12 are connected to the floating platform 10 by steel strands;

[0059] Figure 6 The seawater pretreatment module 11 shown includes a pumping pipe 1104 and multiple water treatment chambers. Seawater flows into the filtration chamber 1101, the flocculation chamber 1102 and the adsorption chamber 1103 in sequence, and after pretreatment, it is pumped into the water pipe 105 through the centrifugal pump 1105.

[0060] The seafood farming module 9 is arranged above the floating platform 10. The seafood farming module 9 includes a feeding machine and a dissolved oxygen monitor for detecting the dissolved oxygen content inside the farming cage; the dissolved oxygen monitor can control the oxygen storage tank 701 to supply oxygen to the farming warehouse according to the dissolved oxygen content inside the cage.

[0061] The technical concept and technical scheme of the present invention are explained through the above implementation methods. The present invention installs a photovoltaic power generation module on a floating platform, and the low-temperature seawater cools the photovoltaic power generation module through the water cooling pipeline on the back of the photovoltaic panel to improve the efficiency of photovoltaic power generation; the heated seawater flows into the collector through the transportation system, and is heated again under the focusing effect of the peripheral heliostat, and then passes into the underwater heat exchange steam generating cabin after boiling. The boiling seawater evaporates a large amount of water vapor under the temperature difference driving; the water vapor enters the electrolyzer and condenses and electrolyzes to produce hydrogen. The hydrogen and oxygen produced in the hydrogen production process are stored in the gas storage tank respectively, and the oxygen can be used to meet the oxygen supply demand of the aquaculture system; the by-product concentrated seawater is used for salt difference power generation with ordinary seawater through the salt difference power generation module to achieve energy recovery. While reducing the energy consumption of seawater desalination, the present invention improves the efficiency of photovoltaic power generation, effectively utilizes the by-products in the seawater desalination process, and optimizes the overall energy conversion and resource utilization efficiency of the system.

[0062] It should be further explained that the above implementation modes are only used to understand the technical solution of the present invention, and are not used to limit the protection scope of the present invention. Any obvious adjustments and modifications made to the technical solution of the present invention that belong to the technical concept of the present invention should also fall within the protection scope of the present invention.
