Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This invention belongs to the field of flue gas denitrification treatment technology for circulating fluidized bed boilers, specifically relating to a denitrification monitoring system and its usage method for SNCR systems in circulating fluidized bed boilers. Background Technology
[0002] Currently, SNCR (Selective Non-Catalytic Reduction) is the most commonly used method for nitrogen oxide (NOx) treatment in circulating fluidized bed (CFB) boilers. Typically, several SNCR nozzles are placed at the separator inlet flue gas duct, allowing NOx in the boiler flue gas to undergo a redox reaction with ammonia without a catalyst, producing nitrogen and water that have no environmental impact. The biggest problems currently existing in the operation of SNCR systems in CFB boilers are: firstly, the high temperature of the flue gas at the separator inlet, and the lack of a suitable flue gas CEMS (Continuous Emission Monitoring System) to monitor the original NOx concentration of the boiler; secondly, the NOx concentration after NOx removal by the SNCR system is monitored using a CEMS system at the chimney inlet, resulting in significant data lag; furthermore, due to the absence of a catalyst, the NOx removal efficiency of the SNCR system is closely related to the separator inlet flue gas temperature, the ammonia-to-nitrogen molar ratio (NSR) of the SNCR, and the urea solution concentration. Due to the combined effects of factors such as the lack of original NOx concentration values, the severe lag in outlet NOx concentration values, the inlet flue gas temperature of the separator, and the ammonia-nitrogen molar ratio (NSR), the automatic control of the SNCR system is far more difficult than that of the SCR system for pulverized coal boilers.
[0003] Currently, most circulating fluidized bed (SNCR) boiler systems use PID control systems to control the real-time flow of urea solution. This involves calculating the error between the target NOx concentration at the chimney inlet and the real-time measured value using proportional, integral, and derivative methods, and then controlling the opening of a pneumatic regulating valve to control the real-time flow of urea solution. Furthermore, based on the set urea solution concentration, the real-time flow of dilution water is controlled by adjusting the opening of the pneumatic regulating valve, ensuring that the urea solution concentration meets operational requirements and ultimately achieving NOx concentration at the chimney inlet that meets emission standards. Currently, the most commonly used parameter determination method is the engineering correction method, which requires repeated experiments by engineers. Due to the system's significant inertia and time delay characteristics, it is overly dependent on the experience and technical skills of personnel. However, in actual operation, changes in boiler load and operating conditions mean that the urea solution flow is related to multiple factors such as flue gas volume and ammonia-nitrogen molar ratio. Therefore, it is necessary for the PID control parameters to have adaptive correction capabilities.
[0004] Chinese patent publication number CN115253636A, entitled "A Wide-Load Denitrification System for a Circulating Fluidized Bed Boiler," includes a hot air generation system, a urea solution supply system, a urea pyrolysis furnace, a cyclone separator, and a control system connected by pipelines. The hot air generated by the hot air generation system and the urea solution supplied by the urea solution supply system enter the urea pyrolysis furnace, where the urea solution is pyrolyzed to generate a reducing agent mixture containing ammonia. This reducing agent mixture is split into multiple branches and mixed with the raw flue gas from the furnace outlet, then enters the independent cyclone separators for denitrification reactions, and finally discharged through the chimney. The control system determines the urea solution supply by collecting and testing the composition of the raw flue gas entering the cyclone separator, the composition of the flue gas after denitrification by the cyclone separator, and the composition of the flue gas at the chimney's main outlet. This patent application fails to address the problem of insufficient accuracy in controlling the urea solution injection rate caused by measurement data lag and large model errors.

[0038] A denitrification monitoring system for a circulating fluidized bed boiler SNCR system is characterized by comprising: a separator 2 and an air preheater 4, wherein the outlet of the separator 2 is connected to the inlet of the air preheater 4, and an SNCR spray gun 21 is provided at the inlet of the separator 2; a flue gas sampling device 3 is connected between the inlet of the separator 2 and the inlet of the air preheater 4; the flue gas sampling device 3 is a pipe with a sampling grid at its inlet; the inlet end of the flue gas sampling device 3 is located upstream of the SNCR spray gun 21, a first monitoring system is provided inside the pipe of the flue gas sampling device 3, and a second monitoring system is provided at the inlet of the air preheater 4; the first monitoring system includes a first oxygen monitoring device 32 and a first NOx monitoring device 33; the second monitoring system includes a second oxygen monitoring device 44, a second NOx monitoring device 45, and an NH3 monitoring device 47.
[0039] The method of using the denitrification monitoring system of the circulating fluidized bed boiler SNCR system includes the following steps:
[0040] S1: Set the initial NSR design value based on the inlet NOx concentration value obtained from the first monitoring system;
[0041] S2: According to the NO monitored by the first monitoring system X Urea consumption is calculated from concentration and flue gas flow rate;
[0042] S3: Calculate the dilution water consumption based on the urea consumption;
[0043] S4: Conduct field tests to determine the optimal urea solution concentration under different loads and obtain the fitting curve of the optimal urea solution concentration.
[0044] S5: Obtain historical operating data and train NOx generation prediction regression model and NSR prediction regression model on the historical operating data.
[0045] This invention adds a flue gas sampling grid before the inlet spray gun of the separator, and uses the differential pressure between the cyclone separator 2 and the air preheater 4 inlet to allow a small proportion of flue gas to automatically flow into the air preheater 4 inlet. A first monitoring system is installed on the pipeline; simultaneously, the flue gas dissipates heat to the environment during flow, preventing high-temperature damage to the flue gas monitoring instruments. A second monitoring system is installed at the air preheater 4 inlet to monitor the nitrogen oxide concentration after denitrification. By selecting boiler operating data to predict the initial NOx concentration and the optimal NSR value at the separator inlet, and combining the loss function of the virtual SCR reactor to predict the NOx content at the air preheater inlet, the urea solution consumption is adjusted after comparing with the measured values of the second monitoring system. This solves the problem of insufficient accuracy in controlling the urea solution injection rate caused by measurement data lag and large model errors.
[0046] Example 1
[0047] like Figure 3 As shown, in this embodiment, the SNCR system includes a self-compressed air header 101, a self-urea solution delivery pump 102, and a self-dilution water pump 103. The self-compressed air header 101 is used to atomize air. The self-compressed air header 101 is connected to the compressed air pipeline 31.
[0048] This embodiment of a circulating fluidized bed boiler SNCR system denitrification monitoring system includes: a separator 2 and an air preheater 4. The outlet of the separator 2 is connected to the inlet of the air preheater 4, and an SNCR spray gun 21 is installed at the inlet of the separator 2. The boiler furnace 1 is connected upstream of the separator 2, and a superheater 41, a reheater 42, an economizer 43, and the air preheater 4 are connected downstream in sequence.
[0049] To prevent the injected urea solution from affecting the original NOx concentration test, a flue gas sampling device 3 is connected between the inlet of the separator 2 and the inlet of the air preheater 4. The flue gas sampling device 3 is a pipe with a sampling grid at the inlet. The inlet end of the flue gas sampling device 3 is located upstream of the SNCR spray gun 21. The flue gas is guided to the inlet of the air preheater 4 by the pressure difference between the inlet of the separator 2 and the inlet of the air preheater 4.
[0050] The flue gas sampling device 3 is equipped with a first monitoring system in its pipeline, and the air preheater 4 is equipped with a second monitoring system at its inlet, for monitoring the original NOx concentration value produced by the boiler.
[0051] The first monitoring system includes a first oxygen monitoring device 32 and a first NOx monitoring device 33 connected to the flue gas sampling device 3 via pipelines. The second monitoring system includes a second oxygen monitoring device 44, a second NOx monitoring device 45, a flow monitoring device 46, and an NH3 monitoring device 47 connected to the inlet of the air preheater 4 via pipelines.
[0052] Optionally, compressed air conduit 31 connects to the power plant's miscellaneous compressed air.
[0053] Optionally, the flue gas sampling device 3 is a grid-based flue gas sampling device, where flue gas is collected into a DN25 pipe and introduced into the inlet of the air preheater 4 through a flue gas sampling grid. Since the flue gas temperature at the sampling point is as high as 850~950℃, the steel pipe used for sampling in the flue gas sampling device 3 needs to be made of high-temperature resistant stainless steel. Optionally, the pipe of the flue gas sampling device 3 is made of 310S stainless steel. To ensure that the flue gas temperature reaching the inlet of the air preheater 4 is reduced to below 400℃, the DN25 stainless steel flue gas pipe does not require insulation and is allowed to dissipate heat naturally.
[0054] Preferably, the flue gas sampling device 3 is located within a range of 1.5m to 2m upstream of the SNCR spray gun 21.
[0055] Optionally, the flue gas sampling device 3 is connected to a compressed air pipe 31. To prevent dust in the flue gas from clogging the pipe and the sampling port of the flue gas sampling grid during long-term operation, a compressed air pipe 31 is installed on the pipe for backflushing, and the backflushing frequency is determined according to the dust concentration in the flue gas.
[0056] Optionally, the second monitoring system is a CEMS (Continuous Emission Monitoring System), used to monitor the composition of flue gas after denitrification, and to guide the power plant's combustion control and adjust the operating oxygen level.
[0057] Example 2
[0058] Since the SCR system has a catalytic effect, provided that the catalyst activity meets the performance requirements, the NSR can be directly calculated from the denitrification efficiency and ammonia slip. Therefore, the urea consumption of the SCR system can be directly calculated from the flue gas volume, NSR, and inlet NOx concentration.
[0059] In actual operation, the specific NSR is related to factors such as boiler load (flue gas volume), flue gas temperature at the inlet of separator 2, concentration of diluted urea solution, and original NOx concentration. Once the specific NSR value is obtained, the consumption of urea solution is directly calculated using the boiler load (flue gas volume) and the original NOx concentration.
[0060] The dosage of urea granules is calculated using the following method:
[0061]
[0062] In the formula:
[0063] Urea consumption, kg / h;
[0064] Flue gas flow rate at the inlet of separator 2 at 6% O2 concentration, in m³ 3 / h;
[0065] NO at the inlet cross section of separator 2 at 6% O2 concentration X Average concentration, mg / m³ 3 ;
[0066] Molar mass of NO2, g / mol;
[0067] NSR NH3 / NO X molar ratio;
[0068] Molar mass of NH3, g / mol.
[0069] The urea consumption is calculated using the above formula. The power plant first prepares the urea granules into a 40%~50% urea solution for storage.
[0070]
[0071] In the formula: This refers to the urea solution of a certain concentration that needs to be consumed by the power plant, with a mass concentration of 40% to 50%, which is also the mass of urea solution measured by the electromagnetic flowmeter in the SNCR system. : Concentration of urea solution prepared by the power plant.
[0072] The SNCR system dilutes a 40%–50% urea solution to the required concentration using dilution water, controlling the concentration to 8%–12%, which needs to be confirmed through on-site testing. The dilution water consumption is then:
[0073]
[0074] In the formula:
[0075] The optimal urea solution concentration for the SNCR system, determined experimentally.
[0076] The amount of dilution water required by the SNCR system to dilute the urea solution to the optimal concentration is also the amount of dilution water measured by the turbine flow meter set in the SNCR system.
[0077] The effect of diluted urea solution concentration on NSR value was determined through field tests.
[0078] Taking a stable load as an example, power plant operators stabilize the unit's operating load, ensuring stable coal quality and parameters such as oxygen levels. They maintain a constant 50% concentration of urea solution, adjusting the dilution water flow rate to adjust the concentration of the diluted urea solution. Based on the NOx concentrations from the newly added first and second monitoring systems, they calculate the denitrification efficiency and find the dilute urea solution concentration corresponding to the highest denitrification efficiency. The concentration of the diluted urea solution is between 5% and 15%.
[0079] By adjusting the dilution water flow rate under certain stable load, operating oxygen content, coal quality, and urea solution flow rate, urea solutions of different concentrations were obtained. The changes in NOx concentration at the inlet of air preheater 4 were observed, and the optimal urea solution concentration for the corresponding load was selected.
[0080] On-site tests were conducted to determine the optimal urea solution concentration values under boiler loads of 50%, 60%, 70%, 80%, 90%, and 100%.
[0081] Under stable load, stable coal quality, and stable operating oxygen content, the initial NOx concentration of production can be considered to be at the basic temperature. The optimal urea solution concentration value refers to the highest denitrification efficiency when the flow rate of 50% urea solution is constant, and the lowest NOx concentration in the second monitoring system. Based on the optimal urea solution concentration values determined by the above 6 boiler loads, the relationship curve between boiler load and optimal urea solution concentration is fitted and input into the denitrification DCS system.
