[0102] Example 1
[0103] A biomass-green hydrogen dual-drive multi-energy conversion system, the structural diagram is shown in Figure 1 See the schematic diagram for the principle Figure 2 , mainly composed of biomass conversion unit, hydrogen production unit, LNG comprehensive heat exchange unit, methanol synthesis unit, fuel cell power generation unit, waste heat utilization unit and storage unit;
[0104] Among them, the storage unit includes a liquid storage unit, a hydrogen storage unit and an energy storage unit.

[0107] The biomass conversion unit can "tailor" the treatment method according to the characteristics and needs of the raw materials. One is to send agricultural waste raw materials into the gasifier to produce synthesis gas (reaction temperature 850℃, reaction pressure 4.2Mpa) after pretreatment to achieve efficient resource conversion; the other is to classify and utilize oil biomass raw materials according to their specific chemical properties after pretreatment. If the carbon chain length of the raw material is moderate (oils and fats between 14 and 18 carbon atoms), it is suitable as a raw material for biodiesel because it has good combustion performance and environmental protection characteristics; if the carbon chain of the oil is longer (the carbon number exceeds a certain limit), it is more suitable as a raw material for bio-jet fuel, because long-chain fatty acids can generate hydrocarbon compounds suitable for aviation fuel requirements under specific conversion conditions;
[0108] It should be noted that the material of the hydrodeoxygenation & cracking / isomerization reactor is S31603. When preparing biodiesel, Ni-Mo / SAPO-11 catalyst (Ni loading 10%, Mo loading 0.5%) is used, the mass ratio of biomass oil and catalyst is 1:0.06, the reaction temperature is 340°C, and the reaction pressure is 7.5Mpa; when preparing bio-jet fuel, core-shell Ni / ZSM-5 / SAPO-5 catalyst (Ni loading 8%) is used, the mass ratio of biomass oil and catalyst is 1:0.12, the silicon-aluminum ratio is 340, the reaction temperature is 320°C, and the reaction pressure is 6.5Mpa.
[0109] The fuel cell power generation unit uses syngas and green hydrogen to generate electricity and high-temperature waste heat. The fuel cell power generation unit uses a SOFC unit to use green hydrogen and syngas as raw materials to power the entire system network. The SOFC unit uses an anode support and a Ni-ZrO-carbon fiber composite matrix with an operating temperature of 720°C;
[0110] It should be noted that the water electrolysis hydrogen production device in the hydrogen production unit is connected to the hydrodeoxygenation & cracking / isomerization reactor and the SOFC unit through pipelines, thereby providing green hydrogen as a raw material;
[0111] The waste heat utilization unit utilizes the high-temperature waste heat generated by SOFC in two ways. On the one hand, the superheated exhaust gas generated by the SOFC unit in the fuel cell power generation unit is reused through the lithium bromide unit for cooling and heating of the entire system network. On the other hand, the remaining superheated exhaust gas is used to generate electricity through the screw expander and enters the energy storage device for backup.
[0112] The LNG integrated heat exchange unit uses a heat exchanger to efficiently exchange the cold energy of the LNG main pipeline with the heat exchange network of multiple energy conversion units (including hydrogen production units, biomass conversion units, and fuel cell power generation units), achieving effective recovery of cold energy and heat energy transfer, and promoting efficient operation of the entire system;
[0113] The methanol synthesis unit includes gas purification equipment, steam reforming converter, methanol synthesis reactor, product separation and purification equipment, and uses the LNG reformed by steam from the synthesis gas and LNG comprehensive heat exchange unit as a raw material component to perform catalytic reaction to synthesize methanol;
[0114] It should be noted that the catalyst used in the methanol synthesis reactor (material S31603) is Cu-ZnO-CeO2 / Al2O3, in which the molar ratio of Cu, Zn and Al is 1:1:2.8, the amount of CeO2 added is 0.6% (mass fraction), the temperature of the methanol synthesis reactor is 270°C, and the pressure is 3.5Mpa.

[0121] Example 4
[0122] This embodiment is an operation mode of the biomass-green hydrogen dual-drive multi-energy conversion system of Example 1, including the following steps:
[0123] (1) Startup of the hydrogen production unit: Start the water electrolysis equipment and use the electricity generated by renewable energy (such as solar energy and wind energy) to electrolyze water to produce green hydrogen. The resulting green hydrogen is transported to the biomass conversion unit and the fuel cell power generation unit through pipelines for use, and the remaining green hydrogen is stored in the hydrogen storage unit for standby use;
[0124] (2) Start-up of the biomass conversion unit: biomass raw materials (such as crop straw, forestry waste, and bio-oil) are fed into the biomass conversion unit, and the gasification equipment or hydrodeoxygenation & cracking / isomerization unit is started according to demand to convert the biomass raw materials into synthesis gas and / or biodiesel and / or bio-jet fuel. The purified synthesis gas is divided into two parts: one part is supplied to the SOFC power generation unit, and the other part is used as a raw material for methanol synthesis. The synthesized biodiesel and / or bio-jet fuel is fed into the liquid storage unit.
[0125] (3) Liquid storage unit startup: The synthesized biodiesel and bio-jet fuel are stored in the liquid storage unit, and liquid storage preparations are made in advance for the methanol synthesis unit;
[0126] (4) Start-up of SOFC power generation unit: The purified synthesis gas and green hydrogen are fed into the SOFC generator set to generate electricity, while generating high-temperature waste heat. The electricity generated can be supplied to the plant or sold to the grid;
[0127] (5) Start-up of the waste heat utilization unit: The high-temperature waste heat generated by SOFC is utilized in two ways. On the one hand, the superheated exhaust gas generated by the SOFC unit in the fuel cell power generation unit is reused through the lithium bromide unit for cooling and heating of the entire system network. On the other hand, the remaining superheated exhaust gas is used to generate electricity through the screw expander and enters the energy storage device for backup;
[0128] (6) Start-up of LNG integrated heat exchange unit: LNG is fed into the LNG integrated heat exchange unit, and the cold energy of LNG is used for heat exchange to improve the energy efficiency of the system; the LNG after heat exchange can be used as raw material or further processed into other products;
[0129] (7) Start-up of methanol synthesis unit: The purified synthesis gas and LNG after steam reforming are used as raw material components of the methanol synthesis unit to synthesize methanol through catalytic reaction; the generated methanol can be used as fuel, chemical raw material or further processed into other products;
[0130] (8) Start-up of the hydrogen storage unit: The remaining green hydrogen is stored in the hydrogen storage unit by compression, liquefaction, etc. The hydrogen storage unit can provide hydrogen to other units as needed.
