Description

Technical Field

[0001] The present invention relates to the technical field of coking equipment, and particularly to a riser waste heat heating gas device and method. Background Art

[0002] The heat losses in the coking process mainly include four parts: sensible heat of the discharged red coke, sensible heat of the raw gas, sensible heat of the flue gas in the coke oven flue, and heat dissipation from the furnace body surface. The temperature of the raw gas in the coke oven is about 650 - 750 °C, and its sensible heat accounts for about 36% of the heat distribution in the coke oven.

[0003] At the present stage, the method for treating the raw gas in the coking industry is to spray a certain amount of circulating ammonia water at 70 - 75 °C. As the circulating ammonia water absorbs heat and evaporates, the temperature of the raw gas decreases, and then it can be recycled and processed by the chemical production section. Such a process treatment results in serious waste of the sensible heat of the raw gas.

[0004] The waste heat utilization technology of the raw gas in the coke oven is an environmental protection new technology that recovers the sensible heat of the raw gas to achieve energy conservation, emission reduction, and create economic benefits. However, during the application of the waste heat utilization technology of the coke oven riser, deformation and leakage are likely to occur. Moreover, when the above problems occur, it is impossible to avoid the working medium from entering the coke oven carbonization chamber, and it is impossible to ensure the safety and stability of the coke oven production. At the same time, it is impossible to effectively control the inner wall temperature of the riser evaporator (≥450 °C), and it is impossible to avoid the large tar condensation temperature zone, which is likely to cause tar and graphite deposition in the riser, block the riser, and cause environmental problems (smoking).

[0016] 1) The raw gas enters the riser pipe body from the raw gas inlet and flows upward. First, the gas pipeline side is purged with nitrogen. After the nitrogen purging, the gas inlet valve and the gas outlet valve are closed.

[0017] 2) When gas is introduced into the main gas inlet pipe, the gas inlet valve and the gas outlet valve are opened. The gas enters the equipment jacket and flows downward along the fins in the jacket, counter-currently exchanging heat with the raw gas.

[0036] The riser tube body is of a vertical structure and includes an inner cylinder 2, an outer cylinder 3, fins 4, and a heat insulation layer 5. Both the inner cylinder 2 and the outer cylinder 3 are cylindrical bodies with vertical axes. The axes of the inner cylinder 2 and the outer cylinder 3 are the same. The inner cylinder 2 is located inside the outer cylinder 3, and there is a gap between the inner cylinder 2 and the outer cylinder 3, which forms a cavity and a jacketed structure. The flange 1 is a jacket flange, and the two flanges 1 are respectively fixedly connected to the upper and lower end faces of the inner cylinder 2 and the outer cylinder 3.

[0037] The inner cylinder 2 is made of seamless steel pipe with a smooth inner wall. The flange 1 and the inner cylinder 2 are welded by butt welds, welded from the inside of the cylinder and ground flat after welding to ensure that the inside of the inner cylinder 2 is smooth after welding with the flange 1 and reduce fouling. The flange 1 and the outer cylinder 3 are welded by butt welds, welded from the outside. The flange 1, the inner cylinder 2, and the raw gas are in direct contact and are made of heat-resistant metal materials.

[0038] The fins 4 are spiral fins, welded to the outer wall of the inner cylinder 3, and are evenly distributed on the outer wall of the inner cylinder 3 with the axis of the inner cylinder 3 as the axis. On the one hand, the fins 4 play a role in guiding the flow and strengthening heat transfer. On the other hand, after being welded to the inner cylinder 3, they are located in the jacket, increasing the heat transfer area and playing a role in heat transfer.

[0039] An expansion joint 6 is provided in the middle of the outer cylinder 3. The expansion joint 6 can absorb the axial expansion and contraction of the outer cylinder 3 caused by temperature changes, reduce the deformation and leakage problems at the joints caused by thermal expansion and contraction, thereby extending the service life, and at the same time play a sealing role. The heat insulation layer 5 is arranged outside the outer cylinder 3 to reduce the heat loss in the riser tube body and achieve the effect of energy saving.

[0040] The ultrasonic descaling device 7 includes a main machine 101, a high-frequency cable 102, a transducer 103, and a waveguide 104. The waveguide 104 is welded to the flange 1 and is respectively installed on the upper and lower flanges 1 to remove impurities on the inner walls of the inner cylinder 2 and the flange 1.

[0041] The gas inlet pipe 11 is horizontally fixedly connected to the side wall of the outer cylinder 3, communicates with the jacket, and is located above the high point of the fins 4. The right end of the gas inlet pipe 11 is connected to the gas inlet valve 8. The gas inlet valve 8 is connected to the gas inlet branch pipe 9, and the gas inlet branch pipe 9 is connected to the gas inlet main pipe 10.

[0042] The gas outlet pipe 12 is horizontally and fixedly connected to the side wall of the outer cylinder 3, communicates with the jacket, and is located below the low point of the fin 4. The right end of the gas outlet pipe 12 is connected to the gas outlet valve 13, the gas outlet valve 13 is connected to the gas outlet branch pipe 14, and the gas outlet branch pipe 14 is connected to the gas outlet main pipe 15.

[0043] A method for heating gas with the waste heat of the riser pipe is realized based on the above-mentioned device for heating gas with the waste heat of the riser pipe, and specifically includes the following steps:

[0044] 1) The raw gas enters the inside of the riser pipe from the raw gas inlet and flows upward. First, nitrogen replacement is carried out on the side of the gas pipeline. After nitrogen replacement, the gas inlet valve 8 and the gas outlet valve 13 are closed.

[0045] 2) When gas is introduced into the gas inlet main pipe 10, the gas inlet valve 8 and the gas outlet valve 13 are opened. The gas enters the equipment jacket and flows downward along the fin 4 in the jacket, and exchanges heat with the raw gas in a countercurrent manner.

[0046] 3) The fin 4 plays a guiding role on the one hand to strengthen heat transfer, and on the other hand increases the heat transfer area to play a heat transfer role.

[0047] 4) The inner cylinder 2 and the inner wall of the flange 1 are smooth to reduce the scaling of impurities such as tar. At the same time, the ultrasonic descaling device 7 is enabled to remove the scaling of impurities such as tar during operation to ensure the stable operation of the equipment. The gas pressure is low, and there is no danger of internal leakage of the equipment, which does not affect the operation of the coke oven.

[0048] 5) The gas after heating enters the gas outlet main pipe 15 and is used for heating the coke oven.

[0049] In the present invention, the heat exchange medium is gas. The raw gas is heated by gas through the above structure, the gas temperature is increased, and the gas consumption for heating the coke oven is reduced. The waste heat of the riser pipe is fully utilized to heat the gas. The gas pressure is low, the wall thickness of the equipment is small, and the cost is low.

[0050] In the prior art, the gas preheater usually uses steam to heat the return gas. The steam is unstable, especially in winter, the heating effect cannot be achieved, and the steam consumption is also increased; in the present invention, the waste heat of the riser pipe is used to heat the gas. Even if there is a leak, it will leak into the gas and will not explode. The present invention heats the gas, which is safe and reliable.

[0051] The above is only a part of the specific implementation manners of the present invention. The protection scope of the present invention is not limited thereto.
