Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] The present invention relates to the field of energy and chemical technology, and in particular to a chemical chain reaction device and a method for using the same. Background Art
[0002] In the reaction process of chemical chain technology, the fuel does not come into direct contact with the air, but the combustion, gasification or reforming reaction of the fuel is achieved through the cyclic alternating reaction of the oxygen carrier between the two reactors; the oxygen carrier undergoes an oxidation reaction in the air reactor to obtain lattice oxygen, which is then transported to the fuel reactor for lattice oxygen and fuel to undergo reduction reactions such as combustion, gasification or reforming. The oxygen carrier that has lost lattice oxygen is recycled back to the air reactor, and relatively pure CO2 and water vapor or CO and H2 products can be obtained by avoiding the dilution of the gas phase products of the fuel reactor by N2. Based on the characteristics of the chemical chain reaction process that pure CO2 or CO and H2 (synthesis gas) can be obtained without additional air separation oxygen production, the technical development of the chemical chain reaction process is a hot topic of current research.
[0003] Chemical chaining technology can be used to convert gas, liquid, and solid fuels. How to design the reactor of chemical chaining technology to efficiently realize the technical advantages has become one of the key factors in whether chemical chaining technology can be promoted and applied. In order to achieve the smooth transportation and circulation of oxygen carrier bed materials, the main body of the device currently designed for chemical chain reaction adopts the form of two fluidized bed reactors in series, mainly including serial fluidized bed reactors and dual circulating fluidized bed reactors. The serial fluidized bed reactor is composed of a fast bed air reactor and a low-speed bubbling bed / turbulent bed fuel reactor. The air reactor and fuel reactor of the dual circulating fluidized bed reactor are composed of two circulating fluidized beds connected in series. Both forms, whether using a riser fast bed or a circulating fluidized bed, use high-speed air to carry the oxygen carrier particles out of the air reactor, and then return the oxygen carrier to the fuel reactor through a flow sealing valve after gas-solid separation through a cyclone separator. A large amount of gas is required to achieve the high gas velocity required for carrying out the oxygen carrier particles, which brings great difficulties to the device system design, solid particle residence time and operation and control of high circulation flux of the oxygen carrier bed material. At the same time, the high gas velocity will also aggravate the pulverization and wear of the oxygen carrier bed material and increase the loss of oxygen carrier. In addition, metal oxides (such as Fe2O3, NiO and Mn3O4, etc.) that usually act as oxygen carriers undergo an endothermic reaction with hydrocarbon fuels in the fuel reactor, relying on the heat carried by the hot oxygen carrier bed of the air reactor to maintain the reaction temperature of the fuel reactor. The atmospheric volume required for the high gas velocity of the air reactor takes away a large amount of sensible heat, resulting in heat loss, which increases the difficulty of thermal balance management of the entire reaction device.
[0004] Therefore, the prior art still needs to be improved and developed. Summary of the invention
[0005] In view of the above-mentioned deficiencies in the prior art, the object of the present invention is to provide a chemical chain reaction device and a method of using the same, aiming to solve the problem that a large amount of gas is required to achieve the high gas velocity required for carrying out the oxygen carrier particles, resulting in great difficulties in the device system design, the residence time of the reaction materials and the operation and control of the high circulation flux of the oxygen carrier bed material.

[0015] The second aspect of the present invention provides a method for using the chemical chain reaction device described in the present invention, wherein, in a fuel reactor, a high-valent oxidation state oxygen carrier bed material reacts with fuel to produce gas products (CO2 and water vapor or CO and H2), the gas products enter a cyclone separator II for dust removal to obtain a gas product, the high-valent oxidation state oxygen carrier bed material is reduced to a low-valent reduction state oxygen carrier bed material, and the low-valent reduction state oxygen carrier bed material enters an air reactor through a bed material circulation flow channel I; in the air reactor, the low-valent reduction state oxygen carrier bed material undergoes an oxidation reaction with air to generate a high-valent oxidation state oxygen carrier bed material, while releasing heat to increase the temperature of the high-valent oxidation state oxygen carrier bed material, the oxygen-depleted air is discharged after dust removal by the cyclone separator I, and the hot high-valent oxidation state oxygen carrier bed material returns to the fuel reactor through the bed material circulation flow channel II for recycling.

At the same time, the air reactor also provides radiation heat transfer, which is beneficial to increase and maintain the temperature of the fuel reactor. The two bed material circulation flow channels and the horizontal openings and vertical openings at their lower ends are arranged The invention discloses a type of gas distribution plate. By adjusting the gas velocity of the gas distribution plate to be higher than the minimum fluidization velocity of the bed material particles, the bed material circulation flux can be regulated. This avoids the requirement that the air reactor (fast bed or circulating fluidized bed) in the two-reactor series mode needs to be higher than the bed material particle carry-out velocity to regulate the bed material circulation flux (the bed material particle carry-out velocity is usually more than 20 times higher than the minimum fluidization velocity). The high-flux circulation flow of the oxygen-carrying bed material can be achieved without the high gas velocity of the bed material particle carry-out velocity of the fast bed / circulating fluidized bed, which greatly reduces the mutual collision of the bed material particles due to high-speed movement and the friction impact between the bed material particles and the vessel wall, reduces the wear and sensible heat loss of the oxygen-carrying bed material, improves the heat utilization efficiency, and at the same time facilitates the adjustment of the reaction material residence time to regulate the reaction process, thereby ensuring the reciprocating circulation of the oxygen-carrying bed material required for the chemical chain reaction between the two reactors and avoiding the technical requirements of contact between the fuel and the air. In addition, the device of the invention has a simple structure, is easy to operate, and has a low cost. BRIEF DESCRIPTION OF THE DRAWINGS
