Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] The present invention belongs to the field of energy and power, and mainly relates to a power generation method and system based on complementary gasification of coal and biomass. Background Art
[0002] Coal has long been an important part of my country's energy structure. In recent years, my country has actively promoted the transformation to clean energy, but coal is still the main source of energy, used in many fields such as electricity and industry. The process of coal mining and utilization will release a large amount of pollutants and harmful gases, causing air and environmental pollution, and causing harm to human health and natural ecosystems. my country has abundant biomass resources. The rational development and utilization of biomass resources can not only reduce the use of fossil energy but also reduce carbon dioxide emissions and environmental pollution.
[0003] Pyrolysis technology is a thermochemical process that decomposes fuels such as coal and biomass into gas, liquid and solid products under high temperature. Usually, the pyrolysis process is carried out in the absence of oxygen or in an inert gas atmosphere, and the temperature range of the pyrolysis process is between several hundred degrees Celsius and several thousand degrees Celsius. The properties of the pyrolysis products are mainly affected by factors such as temperature, reaction time, type of raw materials and reactor type. Gasification technology is a process that converts carbon-based fuels into synthesis gas under high temperature and gasifying agent atmosphere. The temperature range of the gasification process is usually between 600 and 1500°C, and the gasifying agent is usually oxygen, carbon dioxide and water vapor. The main components of synthesis gas are carbon monoxide, hydrogen, carbon dioxide and methane, and the proportions of these gas components depend on the fuel and reaction conditions.
[0004] In existing gasification and pyrolysis technologies, the heat generated by the combustion of fossil fuels such as natural gas or coal is usually used to heat the pyrolysis furnace and gasification furnace. However, the existing heating methods also have the disadvantages of high energy consumption and carbon dioxide emissions. Therefore, it is necessary to seek a low-carbon and economical heating method.
[0005] In the existing gasification power generation technology, the heat generated by the combustion of syngas and air is used as the high-temperature heat source of the power generation system, and the exhaust gas generated after the combustion of syngas is directly discharged into the environment. Since the main components of syngas are hydrogen and carbon monoxide, the flue gas after combustion contains carbon dioxide, which leads to an increase in the amount of carbon dioxide discharged into the environment.
[0006] To sum up, achieving efficient and clean utilization of coal and reducing carbon dioxide emissions from fossil energy power generation are issues that my country urgently needs to address. Summary of the invention

DETAILED DESCRIPTION
[0052] The present invention is described in detail below with reference to the accompanying drawings and embodiments.
[0053] The present invention provides a power generation scheme based on the complementary gasification of coal and biomass, the core idea of which is: first, use the heat generated by the combustion of biomass in an external burner to provide heat for the pyrolysis and gasification processes. Since biomass is a carbon-neutral fuel and does not produce additional carbon dioxide emissions, compared with traditional heating methods, biomass external combustion heating reduces heating costs and carbon dioxide emissions. Secondly, compared with existing gasification power generation technologies, the present invention uses a water vapor conversion reactor and a carbon capture unit, first using a water vapor conversion reaction to convert carbon monoxide in the mixed gas into hydrogen and carbon dioxide, and then using a carbon capture unit to capture carbon dioxide in the converted gas, greatly reducing carbon dioxide emissions during the gasification power generation process.
[0054] Another inventive point of the present invention is that in the existing pyrolysis technology, the pyrolysis reaction is concentrated in a pyrolysis furnace, and gas, liquid and solid products are generated at one time, and precise control of the products cannot be achieved. In fact, in the pyrolysis process of coal, at a lower pyrolysis temperature, carbon dioxide and methane are generated first. As the pyrolysis temperature increases, the yields of hydrogen and carbon monoxide gradually increase, so that the concentration of the carbon dioxide component continues to decrease. Compared with the existing pyrolysis technology, the present invention adopts a graded pyrolysis method to separately collect gaseous products at different pyrolysis temperature stages of coal to avoid mixing of hydrocarbon components. Among them, the enrichment of carbon dioxide is achieved at a lower temperature, which reduces the energy consumption of carbon dioxide separation. The enrichment of hydrogen is achieved at a higher temperature, which reduces the energy consumption of subsequent hydrogen purification.
[0055] In order to make the objectives, technical solutions and advantages of the present invention more clearly understood, the present invention will be further described in detail below with reference to the accompanying drawings.
[0056] Example 1
[0057] This embodiment provides a preferred solution for a power generation method based on complementary gasification of coal and biomass, see Figure 1 , the method comprises the following steps:
[0058] S1. The heat of the flue gas generated by the burner is used to heat the air and dry biomass, and the heated hot air and dry biomass then enter the burner.
[0059] In a preferred embodiment, a portion of the biomass after drying enters the burner, and the other portion and the pretreated coal enter the low-temperature pyrolysis furnace.
[0060] This process can be considered as a pretreatment process of biomass and coal, which can realize the functions of biomass drying, coal crushing and drying, and air preheating. The heat required for biomass drying and air preheating comes from the flue gas generated by the combustion of biomass and hot air in step S2. The flue gas first enters the air preheater to heat the air, and then enters the dryer to dry the biomass. This process realizes the cascade utilization of flue gas heat and reduces the heat loss of flue gas.
[0061] Here, biomass refers to all types of biomass; the type of coal is not limited; the blending ratio of biomass and coal entering the low-temperature pyrolysis furnace is not limited, and the biomass ratio can be 0.
[0062] S2, burning the dried biomass and hot air to generate pyrolysis heat, wherein the pyrolysis heat includes at least a first pyrolysis heat and a second pyrolysis heat. The first pyrolysis heat is less than the second pyrolysis heat.
[0063] The partially dried biomass and hot air generated in step S1 are burned to generate heat and high-temperature flue gas. The pyrolysis heat released by the combustion includes the first pyrolysis heat required for step S3 and the second pyrolysis heat required for step S4. The flue gas released by the combustion provides heat for the air preheater and the dryer. The biomass drying temperature is preferably in the range of 100-150°C.
[0064] S3, using the first pyrolysis heat to heat the low-temperature pyrolysis furnace to pyrolyze biomass and coal to generate semi-coke and low-temperature pyrolysis gas. The main components of the low-temperature pyrolysis gas are carbon dioxide, methane, carbon monoxide, hydrogen and tar, which are the same as those of the high-temperature pyrolysis gas, but the volume fraction of carbon dioxide contained in the low-temperature pyrolysis gas is greater than that of the high-temperature pyrolysis gas.
[0065] This process can be considered as a low-temperature co-pyrolysis process of biomass and coal, which can achieve carbon dioxide enrichment at a relatively low temperature. The required heat is provided by step S2, and under the condition of relatively low-temperature pyrolysis, semi-coke and low-temperature pyrolysis gas with a high carbon dioxide content can be obtained.
[0066] S4. Using the second pyrolysis heat to supply heat to the high-temperature pyrolysis furnace to pyrolyze the semi-coke to generate coke and high-temperature pyrolysis gas.
[0067] This process can be considered as a high-temperature pyrolysis process of semi-coke, which generates hydrogen and carbon monoxide at a relatively high temperature. The semi-coke is provided by step S3, and the required heat is provided by step S2. Under the pyrolysis condition of a relatively high temperature, coke and high-temperature pyrolysis gas mainly composed of hydrogen and carbon monoxide can be obtained.
[0068] In this embodiment, the operating temperature range of the low-temperature pyrolysis furnace is preferably 200-1000° C., and the operating temperature range of the high-temperature pyrolysis furnace is preferably 600-1500° C. At the same time, the operating temperature of the low-temperature pyrolysis furnace is lower than the operating temperature of the high-temperature pyrolysis furnace.
[0069] S5. The gasification heat is used to heat the gasifier to gasify the coke to generate synthesis gas.
[0070] This process can be considered as a coke gasification process, in which the heat generated by the burner in step S2 is used to heat the gasifier, and the coke generated in step S4 and the high-temperature gasifying agent generated in step S6 generate synthesis gas in the gasifier. The main components of the synthesis gas are hydrogen and carbon monoxide. The gasification temperature of the gasifier is preferably 900-1500°C.
[0071] S6. The low-temperature pyrolysis gas, the high-temperature pyrolysis gas and the synthesis gas form a high-temperature mixed gas. The heat exchanger recovers the heat of the high-temperature mixed gas to heat the gasifying agent, and the heated gasifying agent enters the gasifier.
[0072] In this process, the heat exchanger is used to recover the heat of the low-temperature pyrolysis gas in step S3, the high-temperature pyrolysis gas in step S4 and the synthesis gas in step S5 to preheat the gasification agent, and the preheated gasification agent enters the gasifier. The gasification agent can be water vapor, carbon dioxide and oxygen.
[0073] S7. The low-temperature mixed gas generated by heat exchange enters the tar separation device to remove tar and generate pure mixed gas.
[0074] In this process, the tar separation device is used to separate the tar from the low-temperature mixed gas in step S6 to produce a pure mixed gas with a low tar content. The tar removal method can be a water washing method or an adsorption method.
[0075] S8. The pure mixed gas enters the shift reactor to undergo a water vapor shift reaction to generate a conversion gas.
[0076] The process utilizes the water gas shift reaction to convert the carbon monoxide in the pure mixed gas in step S7 into carbon dioxide and hydrogen, thereby generating a conversion gas mainly composed of carbon dioxide and hydrogen. The temperature range of the water gas shift reaction is preferably 200-500°C.
[0077] S9. Separate the carbon dioxide in the conversion gas through a carbon dioxide capture unit to obtain hydrogen with higher purity.
[0078] The conversion gas generated in step S8 is passed into a carbon dioxide capture unit to separate carbon dioxide and pure hydrogen, and the separated carbon dioxide is stored. The carbon dioxide capture method can be a chemical absorption method or a physical absorption method.
[0079] S10. Use high purity hydrogen as fuel for the combined cycle unit to produce electricity.
[0080] The higher purity hydrogen in step S9 is used as fuel for the combined cycle to produce low-carbon electricity.
[0081] In the power generation method proposed in this embodiment, the heat required by the low-temperature pyrolysis furnace, the high-temperature pyrolysis furnace and the gasification furnace is provided by an external burner, which reduces energy consumption and carbon dioxide emissions compared to traditional heating methods. The high-temperature flue gas generated by the combustion of biomass in the external burner provides heat for the air preheater and the dryer. This process maximizes the use of flue gas heat and realizes the cascade utilization of flue gas heat. Compared with the traditional pyrolysis method, the pyrolysis process in the present invention is divided into two stages: low-temperature pyrolysis and high-temperature pyrolysis, so that carbon dioxide is first released in the low-temperature stage, and carbon monoxide and hydrogen are released in the high-temperature stage, thereby realizing the separation of hydrocarbon components. In addition, the present invention captures the carbon dioxide generated in the power generation process and reduces carbon dioxide emissions.
