Description

Technical Field

[0001] The embodiments of the present disclosure belong to the technical field of methanol preparation, and specifically relate to a zero-emission methanol preparation device and method based on garbage gasification and water electrolysis. Background Art

[0002] Methanol synthesis is an important process in the chemical industry, and its raw materials are diverse, including natural gas, naphtha, heavy oil, coal and its processed products. As one of the main raw materials in the organic chemical industry, methanol has a wide range of uses, such as the manufacture of formaldehyde, dimethyl terephthalate (DMT), methyl methacrylate (MMA), methylamine, polyvinyl alcohol, methyl chloride, acetic acid, etc. It can also be used as a solvent and fuel.

[0003] The technology of high-temperature gasification of garbage to produce hydrogen is mainly based on thermochemical processes. It converts organic matter in garbage into hydrogen-rich synthesis gas through high-temperature gasification reactions. In this process, organic matter is decomposed into synthesis gas mainly composed of hydrogen, carbon monoxide, and methane under oxygen-deficient and high-temperature conditions, while inorganic matter is melted into metal and glass slag, which can be used as raw materials for roadbed, building materials, etc. This method of producing methanol, like coal gasification to produce methanol, will produce a large amount of carbon dioxide and other pollutants, which will put great pressure on the environment. With the improvement of global environmental protection requirements, this production method is facing increasing environmental pressure.

[0004] At the same time, the hydrogen content in the synthesis gas produced by high-temperature gasification of garbage is insufficient. If it is directly used as a raw material for synthesizing methanol, the following problems will arise:

[0005] 1. Impact on reaction rate and conversion rate, including:

[0006] Reaction rate decreases: The synthesis of methanol mainly depends on the reaction of carbon monoxide (CO) and hydrogen H2. When the hydrogen content is insufficient, the number of effective collisions between CO and H2 decreases, resulting in a decrease in the reaction rate.

[0007] Reduced conversion rate: Insufficient hydrogen will limit the amount of methanol produced, because the synthesis of methanol requires sufficient hydrogen to react with CO. Therefore, insufficient hydrogen content will directly lead to a decrease in the conversion rate of methanol.

[0008] 2. Impact on catalyst performance, including:

[0009] Decreased catalyst activity: In the methanol synthesis reaction, catalysts (such as copper-based catalysts) play a vital role. However, when the hydrogen content is insufficient, the active centers of the catalyst may not be fully utilized, thus affecting the overall activity of the catalyst.

[0010] Shortened catalyst life: Insufficient hydrogen may also cause an increase in side reactions, such as the disproportionation reaction of CO. These side reactions will generate by-products such as carbon deposits, which will cover the catalyst surface and cause catalyst deactivation or poisoning, thereby shortening the catalyst's service life.

[0011] 3. Impact on product distribution, including:

[0012] Increased by-products: When hydrogen is insufficient, in addition to methanol, more by-products such as hydrocarbons, ethers, lipids, ketones, etc. may be generated. The generation of these by-products will not only reduce the purity of methanol, but also increase the difficulty of subsequent separation and purification.

[0013] Deterioration in methanol quality: Due to the increase in by-products and the decrease in methanol conversion rate, the quality of the final methanol product may decline, such as insufficient purity and high impurity content.

[0014] 4. Impact on energy consumption and costs, including:

[0015] Increased energy consumption: In order to compensate for the impact of insufficient hydrogen on the reaction rate and conversion rate, it may be necessary to increase the reaction temperature or pressure and other conditions, which will increase energy consumption. At the same time, due to the increase in by-products and the shortening of catalyst life, more energy consumption is also required for subsequent treatment and replacement of catalysts.

[0016] Rising costs: Insufficient hydrogen content will lead to reduced methanol production, reduced quality, and increased energy consumption, all of which will directly increase production costs. In addition, frequent catalyst replacement and by-product treatment will also increase additional costs.

[0017] Therefore, how to solve the above problems has become a technical problem that needs to be solved urgently by those skilled in the art. Summary of the invention

[0051] In some embodiments, the gas separation unit includes a methanol cleaning subunit and a heating subunit. The methanol cleaning subunit is respectively connected to the garbage gasification unit, the first methanol synthesis unit and the second methanol synthesis unit.

[0066] 2. The crushed garbage materials are easier to be accurately screened through the garbage screening unit to remove unnecessary impurities.

[0067] 3. The crushed garbage has a smaller volume and surface area, which can reach the required degree of dryness more quickly during the garbage drying process, thereby reducing the overall processing time.

[0068] 4. Uniform small particle materials can be more evenly distributed in the processing equipment, improving the working efficiency and stability of the equipment.

[0069] 5. The crushed garbage has a larger surface area, which is conducive to the evaporation of water and the decomposition of organic matter, thereby increasing the calorific value of the final RDF fuel.

[0070] 6. Uniform small particles are more stable during combustion, reducing incomplete combustion and improving combustion efficiency and environmental protection performance.

[0071] In some embodiments, the garbage crushing unit includes a coarse crusher, which is used to perform preliminary crushing on the garbage for subsequent sorting.

[0072] In some embodiments, the methanol production equipment further includes an odor treatment unit, and the odor treatment unit is used to deodorize the odor generated by the garbage.

[0073] The beneficial effects of using an odor treatment unit include:

[0074] 1. The odor unit can significantly reduce the odorous gases generated in the garbage storage pool and during the treatment process through effective deodorization technology, providing a cleaner and more comfortable working environment.

[0075] 2. Efficient odor treatment units can ensure that the treated gas meets national and local emission standards, avoiding fines or legal proceedings due to excessive emissions.

[0076] 3. Malodorous gases may contain corrosive components. Effective odor treatment can reduce the corrosion of these gases to equipment and buildings and extend their service life.

[0077] 4. Reduce equipment damage and repair frequency caused by malodorous gases, and reduce maintenance costs.

[0078] In some embodiments, the methanol production equipment further includes a permeate treatment unit, which is used to collect the permeate generated by the garbage and transport it to a permeate treatment station.

[0079] The benefits of using a permeate treatment unit include:

[0080] 1. Liquid usually contains high concentrations of organic matter, heavy metals and other harmful substances. Through effective collection and treatment, these pollutants can be prevented from entering the soil and groundwater, protecting the environment from pollution.

[0081] 2. After being treated at the leachate treatment station, it can meet national and local emission standards to ensure that there will be no negative impact on the environment.

[0082] 3. Through effective permeate management, equipment damage and downtime caused by permeate leakage or improper handling can be reduced, and overall production efficiency can be improved.

[0083] A specific example provided by the present disclosure includes:
