Description

Technical Field

[0001] This invention relates to the field of flue gas denitrification technology, and in particular to a device and method for ultra-low temperature flue gas denitrification. Background Technology

[0002] Nitrogen oxides (NOx) are among the major gaseous pollutants in the atmosphere. NOx not only harms human health but is also a significant contributor to environmental damage, acid rain, and photochemical smog. The primary sources of NOx are the combustion of fossil fuels, including coal-fired power plants, industrial boilers, and vehicle exhaust. NOx emission standards are constantly being tightened. Commonly used flue gas denitrification technologies include selective non-catalytic reduction (SNCR), selective catalytic reduction (SCR), and ozone oxidation absorption. Among these, SCR is the most widely used. The principle of SCR is as follows: an ammonia-based reducing agent is injected into the NOx-containing flue gas. Under the action of a catalyst, NH3 reacts with NOx in a catalytic reduction reaction, producing N2 and H2O as reaction products. The traditional SCR process operates at a reaction temperature of 300–450℃; within this temperature range, the catalyst activity is highest and its lifespan is longest.

[0003] Since flue gas typically contains SO2, SO3, O2, and water vapor, when there is excess ammonia in the reaction zone (ammonia escape), it reacts with SO3 to form ammonium salts. These ammonium salts (NH4HSO4) are liquid and viscous at temperatures between 180 and 240°C. They adsorb onto the catalyst surface, reducing catalyst activity. Simultaneously, they adhere to the heat exchange tubes of the economizer downstream of the SCR denitrification reactor, attracting dust from the flue gas and causing scaling, blockage, and corrosion of the heat exchange tubes, thus affecting the unit's operating cycle. NH4HSO4 deposition is a significant bottleneck restricting the application of SCR denitrification under low-temperature conditions.

[0004] Most existing technologies use heating the flue gas to raise its temperature to the denitrification reaction temperature window, thus requiring a heat exchanger. However, for ultra-low temperature flue gas, heating the flue gas to raise its temperature for conventional SCR reactions would result in very large equipment and excessive energy consumption during the heating process.

[0005] Existing technologies also include methods that use microwave sources to heat catalysts to achieve flue gas denitrification. For example, Chinese patent application CN105727745A discloses a microwave reaction system for SCR denitrification, comprising a reactor body, a gas distributor, a device insulation layer, a microwave generator, a temperature measuring unit, a catalyst module, and an ammonia injection system. The temperature of the catalyst itself can be adjusted by regulating the input power of the microwave generator. This reaction system and device have advantages such as wide applicability, energy saving and environmental protection, and simple operation, and possess good economic benefits and potential industrial application value. However, the microwave source in this type of solution is arranged on the outer wall of the reactor body and is statically set, resulting in poor denitrification effect for ultra-low temperature flue gas. Even if the number of microwave sources is increased to cover the microwave radiation range within the reactor, meeting the required flue gas denitrification window temperature in the flue, microwave energy consumption will increase significantly.

[0006] Therefore, there is an urgent need for a flue gas denitrification device and method that can rapidly heat the catalyst module in sections, enabling it to quickly reach the window temperature for flue gas denitrification even when facing ultra-low temperature flue gas, while significantly reducing energy consumption.

[0007] The information disclosed in this background section is intended only to enhance the understanding of the overall background of the invention and should not be construed as an admission or in any way implying that the information constitutes prior art known to those skilled in the art. Summary of the Invention

[0009] To achieve the above objectives, according to a first aspect of the present invention, a flue gas denitrification device is provided, suitable for SCR flue gas denitrification process of ultra-low temperature flue gas, comprising: multiple catalyst modules arranged in rows and columns fixedly disposed on the cross-section of the flue, for adsorbing NO in the ultra-low temperature flue gas in a non-heated state. x The NH3 in the ammonia-air mixture, and the NO when heated to the flue gas denitrification window temperature. x The catalyst undergoes a denitrification reaction with NH3; the catalyst uses a heat storage material as a matrix; a heat medium heating assembly is installed above the catalyst module in the flue; the heat medium heating assembly includes a horizontally moving injection unit for injecting heat into each catalyst module in rows or columns in a regional manner. When the heated area completes the denitrification reaction and the catalyst is regenerated, the injection unit moves to the next area for heating.

[0015] Furthermore, in the above technical solution, the catalyst matrix can be made of ceramic material; the active component of the catalyst is immersed into the matrix pores.

[0016] Furthermore, in the above technical solution, according to the second embodiment of the injection unit, the nozzle can also be set at the end of the injection branch pipe and the setting position corresponds to the hollow column. The hot medium sprayed from the nozzle directly enters the hollow column and is introduced into the catalyst module through the opening on the column.

[0017] Furthermore, in the above technical solution, the openings can be set in layers, with three openings preferably set in each layer and evenly spaced.

[0018] Furthermore, in the above technical solution, the horizontal movement of the injection unit is preferably a reciprocating motion on the cross-section of the flue.

[0019] To achieve the above objectives, according to a second aspect of the present invention, the present invention provides a flue gas denitrification method, using the apparatus of any one of the foregoing claims, comprising the following steps: A. mixing ultra-low temperature flue gas with an ammonia-air mixture in a flue; B. when the mixed gas flows through a catalyst module, NO in the mixed gas... x NH3 is adsorbed onto the catalyst matrix; C. The driving heat medium heating component moves horizontally back and forth within the flue, causing the sprayed heat medium to cover each row or column of catalyst modules in stages, and stay above each catalyst module for the same preset time. Through the heat storage of the catalyst matrix, the heating of the catalyst module is completed within the preset time. x The denitrification reaction with NH3 and catalyst regeneration.

[0020] Furthermore, in the above technical solution, the heat medium covering in stages can be specifically: spraying the heat medium directly onto the top of the corresponding catalyst module, or spraying the heat medium into the hollow column of the corresponding catalyst module and then introducing it into the catalyst module through the opening on the column.

[0021] Furthermore, in the above technical solution, the ultra-low temperature flue gas temperature refers to flue gas with a temperature of 50–120°C.

[0022] Furthermore, in the above technical solution, the catalyst matrix filled in the catalyst module can be made of ceramic material; the active components of the catalyst can be oxides of V, Ti, W, and Mo, and the active components are in the following mass ratios based on oxides: V is 0.01 wt%, Ti is 99 wt%, W is 0.1 wt%, and Mo is 0.02 wt%.

[0023] Furthermore, in the above technical solution, the preset time in step C can be 8s to 10s; the heating temperature of the catalyst module can be controlled to be 200 to 450℃.

[0024] Furthermore, in the above technical solution, the catalyst module can be set with one or more layers in the height direction, and one or more catalyst modules can form a catalyst bed. Multiple catalyst beds can be set in the flue.

[0025] Furthermore, in the above technical solution, the catalyst bed temperature can be adjusted according to the flue gas composition: when the SO2 content in the flue gas is low, the catalyst bed temperature can be controlled below 300℃; when the SO2 content in the flue gas is high, the catalyst bed temperature can be controlled between 320℃ and 450℃.

[0026] Compared with the prior art, the present invention has the following beneficial effects:

[0027] 1) This invention adopts a modular approach to the filling of the denitrification catalyst and heats the catalyst module until the denitrification reaction temperature window is reached. Because it uses a built-in heat medium heating method and heats each catalyst module in sections by area, the regional heating speed is fast and the time is short. It has the advantages of simple process, low energy consumption and wide applicability.

[0028] 2) This invention is particularly applicable to the SCR flue gas denitrification process for ultra-low temperature flue gas, where ultra-low temperature flue gas refers to flue gas with a temperature of 50-120℃. Tests have shown that the device has a better denitrification effect on flue gas with a temperature of 50-60℃. The device and method of this invention can also be applied to flue gas with higher temperatures, and can be applied to flue gas with a temperature of 50℃-450℃ to achieve the desired denitrification effect.

[0029] 3) This invention only requires heating the catalyst, significantly reducing energy consumption compared to heating flue gas. Through the modular design of the catalyst and the movable heat transfer medium heating components, heating of modules row by row or column by column can be achieved. A smaller number of injection units are needed to centrally heat each module, resulting in a more concentrated injection range that effectively shortens the regional heating time. The heated modules can reach the denitrification window temperature in a shorter time, allowing the NO adsorbed on the catalyst matrix to be effectively heated. x It undergoes a denitrification reaction with NH3, and the gas after the reaction is rapidly released and moved downwards, thereby simultaneously completing the catalyst regeneration of this module;

[0030] 4) In this invention, other catalyst modules besides the heated catalyst module can simultaneously process NO in the flue gas. x The adsorption of NH3 and the heating-denitration reaction-catalyst regeneration process are carried out when the heat transfer medium heating component moves to the area; the horizontal reciprocating movement of the heat transfer medium heating component can realize the complete process of adsorption-heating-reaction-regeneration for each catalyst module periodically;

[0031] 5) This invention uses a method where the heat medium is uniformly sprayed onto the top of the catalyst module, allowing the heat medium to gradually penetrate downwards for heat transfer. Furthermore, because the catalyst matrix uses a heat storage material, the heated catalyst module as a whole can obtain the required denitrification window temperature in a short time, thereby rapidly completing the denitrification reaction and catalyst regeneration during the heating process. Due to the heat storage function of the catalyst matrix, the module can continue to carry out the denitrification reaction and catalyst regeneration for a period of time after the spraying unit is removed.

[0032] 6) This invention uses a method of injecting heat medium from the sides of the catalyst module at different heights, which allows the heat medium to quickly penetrate and transfer heat into the module. The penetration distance is shorter, and because the catalyst matrix uses a heat storage material, the heated catalyst module as a whole can obtain the required denitrification window temperature in a shorter time. Furthermore, due to the heat storage function of the catalyst matrix, the module can still continue to carry out denitrification reaction and catalyst regeneration for a period of time after the injection unit is removed.

[0033] 7) The present invention, through the structural arrangement of the heat medium heating component, can form a closed space when it moves above a certain catalyst module, so that flue gas cannot flow through this space. After the denitrification reaction is completed, the catalyst module can be regenerated. The heat medium heating component continues to move above the adjacent catalyst modules, and the catalyst can be regenerated one by one, so that the denitrification reaction is more complete and the catalyst regeneration efficiency is higher.

[0034] 8) This invention can control the movement of the heat transfer medium heating component in real time by measuring the temperature of the catalyst module area. That is, the residence time of the heat transfer medium heating component on each module can be controlled according to the heating temperature requirement and the composition of the flue gas. The catalyst bed temperature can be adjusted according to the composition of the flue gas: when the SO2 content in the flue gas is low, the catalyst bed temperature is controlled below 300°C; when the SO2 content in the flue gas is high, the catalyst bed temperature is controlled between 320°C and 450°C (at this temperature, the ammonium salt generated can decompose, and the catalyst activity is guaranteed). Therefore, this invention has no restrictions on the composition of the flue gas.

Detailed Implementation

[0047] The specific embodiments of the present invention will now be described in detail with reference to the accompanying drawings, but it should be understood that the scope of protection of the present invention is not limited to the specific embodiments.

[0048] Unless otherwise expressly stated, throughout the specification and claims, the term "comprising" or its variations such as "including" or "comprises" shall be understood to include the stated elements or components without excluding other elements or other components.

[0049] In this document, for ease of description, spatial relative terms such as “below,” “under,” “down,” “above,” “above,” “upper,” etc., are used to describe the relationship of one element or feature to another element or feature in the accompanying drawings. It should be understood that spatial relative terms are intended to encompass different orientations of an object in use or operation, in addition to those depicted in the figures. For example, if an object in the figure is flipped, an element described as “below” or “under” another element or feature would be oriented “above” that element or feature. Thus, the exemplary term “below” can encompass both the downward and upward orientations. An object may also have other orientations (rotated 90 degrees or other orientations), and the spatial relative terms used herein should be interpreted accordingly.

[0050] In this document, the terms "first," "second," etc., are used to distinguish two different elements or parts, and are not used to define specific positions or relative relationships. In other words, in some embodiments, the terms "first," "second," etc., can also be used interchangeably.

[0051] The technical concept of this invention is to modularize the filling of the denitrification catalyst and heat the catalyst modules until the denitrification reaction temperature window is reached. Because the heating is carried out by jet heating of the heat medium (such as steam) and the catalyst modules are heated in sections by section, the regional heating speed is fast and the time is short. It has the advantages of simple process, low energy consumption and wide applicability.

[0052] like Figure 1 As shown in Figure 2, this invention provides a flue gas denitrification device, particularly suitable for SCR flue gas denitrification processes using ultra-low temperature flue gas. The ultra-low temperature flue gas of this invention refers to flue gas with a temperature of 50–120°C. This device is more effective at denitrifying flue gas with a temperature of 50–60°C. The device is installed within a flue duct 100. An ammonia injection element 3 and an ammonia mixing element 4 are located upstream of the device. An ammonia-air mixture enters the ammonia injection element 3 radially from the flue duct 100 and is ejected in the same direction as the flue gas. The ejected ammonia-air mixture mixes with the flue gas in the ammonia mixing element 4, and the mixture enters the flue gas denitrification device of this invention. The device includes at least a catalyst module 1 and a heat transfer medium heating assembly 2. Multiple catalyst modules 1 are arranged in rows and columns fixedly on the cross-section of the flue duct 100 (fully covering the cross-section of the flue duct), used to adsorb NO from the ultra-low temperature flue gas in a non-heated state. x The NH3 in the ammonia-air mixture, and the NO when heated to the flue gas denitrification window temperature. xThe catalyst undergoes a denitrification reaction with NH3. A heat storage material (preferably ceramic) serves as the substrate for the catalyst. The heat transfer medium heating assembly 2 is located within the flue 100 and above the catalyst module 1. The heat transfer medium heating assembly 2 includes horizontally movable injection units (refer to Figures 3, 4, 8, and 9), used to heat each catalyst module 1 in sections, row by row or column by column. Once the heated section has completed the denitrification reaction and the catalyst has been regenerated, the injection unit moves to the next section for heating.

[0053] The device of this invention adopts the above-described technical solution. Through the modular design of the catalyst and the movable heat transfer medium heating component, the modules are heated row by row or column by column. A smaller number of injection units can be used to centrally heat each module, resulting in a more concentrated injection range and effectively shortening the regional heating time. Furthermore, since the catalyst matrix is ​​made of a heat storage material, the heated module can reach the denitrification window temperature in a shorter time. Therefore, this module can cause NO adsorbed on the catalyst matrix to dissolve in a shorter time. x The catalyst undergoes a denitrification reaction with NH3, and the resulting gases (N2 and H2O) rapidly escape and descend, thus simultaneously regenerating the catalyst in this module. In areas outside the heated catalyst module (i.e., other catalyst modules), the denitrification of NO in the flue gas also occurs simultaneously. x The catalyst undergoes adsorption with NH3, followed by a heating-denitrification reaction-catalyst regeneration process as the heating medium module moves to the designated area. The horizontal movement of the heating medium module is preferably a reciprocating motion across the flue gas duct cross-section, enabling each catalyst module to periodically complete the entire process of adsorption-heating-reaction-regeneration.

[0054] As further shown in Figures 3, 4, 8, and 9, the heat medium heating assembly 2 may include a sealed housing 21 and the aforementioned injection unit. The sealed housing 21 is a hollow cavity used to house the injection unit and limit the injection coverage area within the sealed housing 21. The width of the sealed housing can be adapted to the width of the catalyst module (preferably both are the same, forming a row-by-row or column-by-column full coverage of the module). The number of injection units can be selected according to the diameter of the flue 100, the size of the catalyst module, and the temperature of the flue gas to be denitrified. The injection unit may further include a main injection pipe 22 and injection branch pipes 23. The main injection pipe 22 is a hollow pipe through which the heat medium flows. The main injection pipe 22 can also serve as a driving rod for the injection unit, used to connect to a controller (not shown in the figure) outside the flue and drive the overall movement of the heat medium heating assembly 2. A temperature sensor (not shown in the figure) can be installed in the bed where the catalyst module 1 is located. By measuring the temperature of the catalyst module area in real time, the injection main pipe 22, which acts as a drive rod, can be controlled in real time. This, in turn, drives the heat medium heating assembly 2 to control the residence time in each module according to the heating temperature requirements and the composition of the flue gas. The injection branch pipe 23 is connected to the injection main pipe 22 and is equipped with nozzles 24 for injecting heat medium into the corresponding positions of the catalyst module 1.

[0055] Further refer to Figure 3 and Figure 4 In the first embodiment of the injection unit, the injection branch pipe 23 is vertically arranged relative to the injection main pipe 22, and the nozzles 24 extend vertically downward along the injection branch pipe 23. Multiple nozzles 24 are evenly spaced, and the spray coverage area corresponds to the size of the catalyst module (i.e., in the first embodiment, the heat medium is directly sprayed onto the top of the heated catalyst module). With this arrangement, the heat medium can be evenly sprayed onto the top of the catalyst module 1 and gradually penetrate downwards for heat transfer. Since the catalyst matrix uses a heat storage material, the heated catalyst module as a whole can obtain the required denitrification window temperature in a short time, thereby rapidly completing the denitrification reaction and catalyst regeneration during the heating process of the module. Furthermore, due to the heat storage function of the catalyst matrix, the module can continue to carry out denitrification reaction and catalyst regeneration for a period of time after the injection unit is removed.

[0056] Further, as shown in Figures 8 and 9, in the second embodiment of the injection unit, the injection branch pipe 23 can be extended by means of an elbow, and the nozzle 24 is set at the end of the injection branch pipe 23, such that the setting position of the nozzle 24 corresponds to the hollow column 13 at the four edges of the catalyst module 1 (that is, one catalyst module corresponds to four nozzles 24). With this arrangement, the heat medium sprayed from the nozzle 24 directly enters the hollow column 13 and is introduced into the catalyst module 1 through the opening 131 on the column (see reference). Figure 6 , Figure 7With this configuration, the heat transfer medium can be injected from the sides of the catalyst module 1 at different heights and quickly penetrate into the module for heat transfer (shorter penetration distance). Since the catalyst matrix uses a heat storage material, the heated catalyst module as a whole can obtain the required denitrification window temperature in a shorter time (compared to the first embodiment), thereby rapidly completing the denitrification reaction and catalyst regeneration during the heating process of the module. Furthermore, due to the heat storage function of the catalyst matrix, the module can continue to carry out denitrification reaction and catalyst regeneration for a period of time after the injection unit is removed.

[0057] As shown in Figures 3 and 8, in order to realize the horizontal reciprocating movement of the heat medium heating component 2, the present invention adopts a combination of rollers and slide rails. That is, rollers 25 are provided on the side wall of the sealed housing 21, and the rollers 25 roll along the slide rails 101 fixed in the flue 100, so that the heat medium heating component 2 as a whole can realize horizontal reciprocating movement.

[0058] Further, as shown in Figures 2 and 5, regarding the arrangement of the heat transfer medium heating components 2, in the first embodiment shown in Figure 2, two heat transfer medium heating components 2 are set, each covering four rows of catalyst modules. In the second embodiment shown in Figure 5, four heat transfer medium heating components 2 are set, each covering two rows of catalyst modules. The present invention can select the appropriate method as needed. With the above structural arrangement, when the heat transfer medium heating component 2 moves above a certain catalyst module 1, it can form a closed space, preventing flue gas from flowing through it. After the denitrification reaction is completed, the catalyst module can be regenerated. The heat transfer medium heating component 2 can continue to move above adjacent catalyst modules 1 to regenerate the catalysts one by one.

[0059] Further as Figure 6 , 7 As shown, preferably but not limitingly, the catalyst module 1 may include a metal mesh 11 and a solid catalyst 12. The metal mesh 11 is a cuboid structure formed by sidewalls and a bottom (without mesh at the top). Hollow pillars 13 are provided at the four edges of the cuboid, and openings 131 are provided on the inner-facing walls of the hollow pillars 13 at different heights. The openings 131 are preferably arranged in layers. Figure 7 Three catalysts are arranged evenly spaced in each layer. The catalyst 12 can be honeycomb-shaped or granular and filled within a cubic structure. The catalyst matrix can be made of materials with adsorption capabilities (for adsorbing NO). x It is made of heat storage material (NH3); the active component of the catalyst is immersed in the matrix pores.

[0060] The present invention also provides a flue gas denitrification method, which uses the aforementioned apparatus and includes the following steps:

[0061] Step S101: Mix the ultra-low temperature flue gas with the ammonia-air mixture in the flue (the temperature of the ultra-low temperature flue gas can be 50-120℃).

[0062] In step S102, when the mixed gas stream passes through catalyst module 1, the NO in the mixed gas... x The NH3 is adsorbed onto the catalyst matrix. Specifically, the catalyst matrix filled in catalyst module 1 can be made of heat storage materials such as ceramics; the active components of the catalyst can be oxides of V, Ti, W, and Mo, and the mass ratio of the active components, based on oxides, is as follows: V is 0.01 wt%, Ti is 99 wt%, W is 0.1 wt%, and Mo is 0.02 wt%.

[0063] Step S103: Drive the heat transfer medium heating component 2 to reciprocate horizontally within the flue 100, so that the sprayed heat transfer medium gradually covers each row or column of catalyst modules 1, and stays above each catalyst module 1 for the same preset time (preferably 8s to 10s). Through the heat storage of the catalyst matrix, the heating of the catalyst module and the NO removal are completed within the preset time. x The catalyst undergoes a denitrification reaction with NH3 and undergoes catalyst regeneration. The heating temperature of the catalyst module can be controlled between 200 and 450°C.

[0064] Furthermore, preferably but not limitingly, when the heat medium covers each row or column of catalyst modules 1 in stages, the heat medium can be sprayed directly onto the top of the corresponding catalyst module 1, or the heat medium can be sprayed into the hollow column 13 of the corresponding catalyst module 1 and then introduced into the catalyst module 1 through the opening 131 on the column.

[0065] Furthermore, preferably but not limitingly, the catalyst module 1 can be configured with multiple layers in the height direction. These multiple catalyst modules can construct a catalyst bed, and multiple catalyst beds can be arranged within the flue gas duct according to process requirements. The catalyst bed temperature can be adjusted according to the flue gas composition: when the SO2 content in the flue gas is low, the catalyst bed temperature is controlled below 300℃; when the SO2 content in the flue gas is high, the catalyst bed temperature is controlled between 320℃ and 450℃.
