[0017] The following is combined with Figure 1-3 This application is described in further detail.
[0018] The embodiment of the present application discloses a system for controlling the automatic heating of coke oven gas. Figure 1 , including a coke oven gas pipeline 6, with a first thermometer T1 and a second thermometer T2 respectively provided at both ends of the coke oven gas pipeline 6, a heat tracing pipe 3 is provided around the outer wall of the coke oven gas pipeline 6, and the heat tracing pipe 3 is in a countercurrent arrangement with the coking coal medium. In this embodiment, the material of the heat tracing pipe 3 includes but is not limited to φ57*4 / 20# seamless steel pipe, and the installation pitch of the heat tracing pipe 3 is 20-30cm to meet the heat exchange effect. The structural form of the heat tracing pipe 3 of the present application is different from the heat exchange tube bundle inside the traditional heat exchanger, which can effectively avoid the problem of blockage and difficulty in cleaning of the traditional heat exchange tube bundle, so that the heat tracing pipe 3 of the present application is free from frequent cleaning and maintenance.
[0019] Reference Figure 1 One end of the heat tracing pipe 3 is connected to the control valve group 2 and the steam source valve group 1 in sequence. The steam source valve group 1 includes a first valve 101 and a second valve 102. The first valve 101 and the second valve 102 are connected in parallel. The first valve 101 is used for the four-extraction steam supply of the unit, and the second valve 102 is used for the auxiliary steam network steam supply; the rated parameters of the first valve 101 are 394℃ / 1.18Mpa, and the rated parameters of the second valve 102 are 184℃ / 1Mpa; during the cold start of the unit or when the four-extraction pipeline is involved, When there is no four-extraction self-steam supply, the auxiliary steam network can be used to supply steam by closing the first valve 101 and opening the second valve 102; when the unit is started or the auxiliary steam pipeline is involved in maintenance operations, there is no auxiliary steam network, the second valve 102 can be closed and the first valve 101 can be opened to use the unit's four-extraction self-steam, and the unit can be started from the cold start state by switching the steam source valve group 1. The heating pipe 3 can have the ability of uninterrupted steam supply, realizing one steam source in use and one steam source in standby.
[0020] Reference Figure 1 and Figure 2The control valve group 2 includes a first manual valve 201, an electric regulating valve 202, a second manual valve 203 and a first bypass manual valve 204. The first manual valve 201, the electric regulating valve 202 and the second manual valve 203 are connected to the steam source valve group 1 in sequence. The first bypass manual valve 204 is connected in parallel to the part composed of the first manual valve 201, the electric regulating valve 202 and the second manual valve 203. The control valve group 2 is used to meet the needs of main bypass switching and daily isolation of the electric regulating valve 202; in this embodiment, the electric regulating valve 202 is communicated with the second thermometer T2, and the electric regulating valve 202 controls the opening of its valve core based on the set value of the second thermometer T2. The set value range of the second thermometer T2 is any value between 10-40°C. The PID logic is used to adjust the opening of its valve core to achieve efficient and automatic control of the temperature of the coke oven gas medium after heating.
[0021] Reference Figure 1 and Figure 2 , the PID automatic control logic adopted by this application system is: 1. Set the T2 temperature to a fixed value (any value in the reasonable range of 10-40℃), and through PID regulation, the opening of the electric regulating valve 202 automatically adjusts the steam inlet volume according to the temperature; 2. When the difference between the PID output temperature and the set temperature is greater than 5°C, the automatic adjustment is canceled, the DCS panel will give an alarm, and manual intervention is required to adjust the temperature; 3. Set the DCS panel to have a light indication alarm for T1 and T2 < 0°C (i.e. the temperature display value on the panel changes to a prominent color to remind monitoring personnel to pay attention to the low temperature of the upstream coke oven gas); 4. The DCS panel is set with an audible and visual alarm when T2>50℃ to remind monitoring personnel to intervene in time when abnormal situations occur.
[0022] Reference Figure 1 The other end of the heating pipe 3 is connected to a drain valve group 4, which includes a third manual valve 401, a drain valve, a fourth manual valve 403 and a second bypass manual valve 404. The third manual valve 401, the float-type automatic drain valve 402 and the fourth manual valve 403 are connected to the heating pipe 3 in sequence, and the second bypass manual valve 404 is connected in parallel with the part composed of the third manual valve 401, the float-type automatic drain valve 402 and the fourth manual valve 403; the drain valve group 4 is used to meet the needs of main bypass switching and daily isolation of the float-type automatic drain valve 402. After low-temperature heating, the condensate of about 70-80℃ is transported to the boiler discharge expansion tank and the sewage cooling pool by the float-type automatic drain valve 402, and is mixed with the unit's discharge and drainage condensate for recycling.
[0023] Reference Figure 1 and Figure 3A spoiler 5 is provided in the coke oven gas pipeline 6. The spoiler 5 adopts a swirl blade spoiler structure. The spoiler 5 is installed at the inlet section of the heating section of the coke oven gas pipeline 6 to achieve a turbulent flow effect of the coke medium and enhance the heat exchange effect of the rear end heating pipe 3 on the medium in the coke oven gas pipeline 6. In daily use, only tar and other attachments usually appear on the surface of this structure, and no blockage occurs.
[0024] Reference Figure 1 The outer wall of the coke oven gas pipeline 6 is provided with 5 cm thick aluminum silicate fiber cotton and 2 mm thick aluminum sheet to improve the heat preservation and anti-scalding performance; the coke oven gas pipeline 6 is provided with a safety auxiliary component at one end close to the user end to improve the safety of the system. In this embodiment, the safety auxiliary component adopts an explosion-proof membrane.
[0025] The implementation principle of a system for controlling the automatic heating of coke oven gas in an embodiment of the present application is as follows: the operating personnel monitors the gas medium temperature gauges T1 and T2, and when the ambient temperature is low, completes the normal pipe heating operation of the system before putting it into operation; in the early stage of commissioning, the opening of the electric regulating valve 202 is manually adjusted to control the coke oven gas medium temperature gauge T2 to be between 10 and 40°C; in the middle and late stages of commissioning, after the T2 temperature stabilizes, the T2 temperature is set to a fixed value (such as 25°C) through the temperature setting window on the DCS panel, and the PID automatic control logic is put into use to achieve efficient and automatic control of the temperature of the coke oven gas medium after heating; through this application, the phenomenon of heat exchanger tube bundle blockage is effectively avoided, the temperature of the heated coke coal medium is controlled in real time, and hydrocarbons are prevented from being decomposed due to excessive heating temperature, while achieving cleaning-free maintenance, making the boiler burner operating condition more stable.
