[0002] With increasing environmental protection requirements and energy demands, supercritical hydrothermal combustion (SCHC) technology is becoming an important tool for waste treatment and energy recovery. By heating water to a supercritical state, SCHC achieves efficient conversion and harmless treatment of organic matter. SCHC also produces multi-component thermal fluids, which can be used to improve oil recovery efficiency and facilitate the extraction of oil and gas resources.

[0003] However, during the supercritical hydrothermal combustion process, due to the changes in fluid properties under high pressure and high temperature environments, problems such as excessive pressure and abnormal temperature are prone to occur, which poses a challenge to the safe operation of the equipment. In the existing technology, many high-pressure fluid processing systems lack effective emergency discharge and temperature control mechanisms, resulting in insufficient safety of the fluid discharge process in the event of a failure or abnormality, which may cause equipment damage, environmental pollution or safety accidents. In addition, traditional cooling systems are often unable to respond in a timely manner when faced with sudden high-pressure fluid discharges, increasing the safety risks of the system. Therefore, in summary, the current high-pressure fluid processing system lacks an effective control mechanism, and the cooling system is unable to respond in a timely manner when a sudden high-pressure fluid discharge occurs, resulting in insufficient system safety in the event of a failure or abnormality, which may cause equipment damage, environmental pollution or even safety accidents.

[0011] Furthermore, the controller: controlling the solid-liquid discharge part to open according to the monitoring of the liquid level meter is more preferred than controlling the solid-liquid discharge part to open according to the monitoring of the fourth temperature device.

[0025] How to improve the emergency release and safety assurance of high-pressure fluids, achieve safe handling of high-pressure fluids through integrated monitoring, control and cooling technologies, to ensure the stability and safety of supercritical hydrothermal combustion systems, while maximizing the utilization of the generated multi-component thermal fluids and promoting their application in the fields of environmental protection and energy.

[0026] like Figure 1 As shown, the present invention provides a high-pressure fluid processing system for supercritical hydrothermal combustion, including a system body, the system body including a discharge tank 9 with a gas discharge portion and a solid-liquid discharge portion, the discharge tank 9 is equipped with a high-pressure pipeline and a low-pressure pipeline capable of receiving fluid, the high-pressure pipeline and the low-pressure pipeline are respectively equipped with a high-pressure system safety valve 6 and a low-pressure system safety valve 5, and the system body is equipped with a controller; wherein: The discharge tank 9 is also equipped with a monitoring unit and a cooling system. The monitoring unit can monitor the temperature and pressure of several locations of the system body in real time and upload the real-time temperature and pressure parameters to the controller; the cooling system includes a cooling water inlet unit connected to the discharge tank 9 through a cooling water pipeline, and a cooling water valve 4 is provided on the cooling water pipeline; The controller is used to control the opening and closing of the high-pressure system safety valve 6 and the low-pressure system safety valve 5, the opening and closing of the cooling water valve 4, and the closing or opening of the gas discharge part and the solid-liquid discharge part according to the real-time temperature and pressure parameters of several positions of the system body.

[0027] The present invention is a high-pressure fluid processing system for supercritical hydrothermal combustion. It is aimed at high-pressure fluid processing, especially for emergency discharge and safety assurance of high-pressure fluid in the supercritical hydrothermal combustion process. The high-pressure pipeline, low-pressure pipeline, gas discharge part and solid-liquid discharge part are integrated through the discharge tank 9 to achieve unified reception and diversion processing of high-temperature and high-pressure fluids, reducing system complexity and fault points. The controller dynamically controls the high-pressure system safety valve 6, the low-pressure system safety valve 5, the cooling water valve 4, the gas discharge part and the solid-liquid discharge part based on the real-time temperature and pressure data of the monitoring unit, achieving automatic, precise and stable control of discharge, cooling and discharge. The cooling system and the monitoring unit work together to automatically trigger the protection mechanism in the event of overtemperature or overpressure, ensuring rapid response under sudden working conditions and preventing equipment from being damaged by over-limit. The present invention improves the safety hazards and control difficulties existing in the high-pressure fluid processing process in the prior art through the design, control and monitoring of the high-pressure fluid system, thereby improving the safety and reliability of the supercritical hydrothermal combustion system.

[0028] In certain operating conditions, the cooling water inlet unit of the present invention includes a cooling water tank 1 and a cooling pump 2, which form a cooling water circuit. A back-pressure valve 3 is provided in the cooling water circuit to maintain the pressure of the cooling water. The back-pressure valve 3 of the present invention continuously maintains pressure in the cooling water circuit, ensuring that the pipeline of the cooling pump 2 is pressurized. This allows the cooling water to be instantly injected into the discharge tank 9 upon triggering a command, thereby optimizing the problem of delayed water injection in the system.

[0029] The monitoring unit of the present invention includes a pressure monitoring device 12, which is used to monitor the pressure within the discharge tank 9 in real time. The discharge tank 9 is equipped with a drain pipe and a safety valve 8. When the pressure within the discharge tank 9 exceeds a preset pressure value, a controller controls the safety valve 8 to open and vent the pressure, thereby ensuring that the pressure within the discharge tank 9 is within the preset safety value. The pressure monitoring device 12 of the present invention is linked to the safety valve 8, automatically opening and venting the pressure when the discharge tank 9 is overpressured, preventing the tank from being overloaded. The pressure relief threshold is precisely controlled by the preset pressure value to avoid false triggering.

[0030] Furthermore, the monitoring unit of the present invention also includes a first temperature device 14, a second temperature device 15, and a third temperature device 16. The first temperature device 14, the second temperature device 15, and the third temperature device 16 are respectively used to monitor the temperature inside the high-pressure pipeline, the low-pressure pipeline, and the discharge tank 9. As long as the temperature of any of these locations exceeds a first preset value, the controller controls the cooling system to activate in order to control the temperature inside the discharge tank 9. The present invention covers the key temperature zones inside the high-pressure pipeline, the low-pressure pipeline, and the discharge tank 9 through temperature detection. If any node exceeds the temperature, the cooling system is triggered, eliminating the risk of delayed cooling monitoring.

[0031] Furthermore, the monitoring unit of the present invention also includes a liquid level gauge 13, which is used to monitor the liquid level in the discharge tank 9. Liquid level gauge 13 is linked to the cooling system. When the liquid level in the discharge tank 9 exceeds a preset height, a controller controls the cooling system to stop operation and opens the solid-liquid drain. Liquid level gauge 13 of the present invention is interlocked with the cooling system and the solid-liquid drain: when the liquid level exceeds a certain level, the pump is automatically stopped and the drain is opened, preventing excessive cooling water injection that could lead to tank overflow and prevent accidents such as high-temperature fluid leakage.

[0032] In addition, the monitoring unit of the present invention also includes a fourth temperature device 17, which is arranged in the discharge tank 9 near the solid-liquid discharge part. When the temperature monitored by the fourth temperature device 17 is lower than the second preset value, the controller controls the solid-liquid discharge part to be closed or opened. The fourth temperature device 17 of the present invention monitors the temperature of the fluid at the discharge port and allows the solid-liquid discharge part to be opened only when the liquid in the discharge tank 9 is at a low temperature, ensuring that the discharged fluid is within a safe temperature range and preventing the high-temperature fluid from causing thermal shock to downstream equipment. It should be noted that the controller of the present invention is set so that the liquid level exceeding the limit takes precedence over the temperature condition to trigger the discharge. In emergency conditions such as excessive cooling water, the liquid is drained and the pressure is reduced first to avoid the risk of the tank overflowing due to waiting for cooling.

[0033] The gas discharge section of the present invention includes a blowout preventer separator 18 connected to the discharge tank 9 via an exhaust pipeline. The exhaust pipeline is equipped with a gas discharge valve 7 and a wire mesh demister 19. The combination of the gas discharge valve 7 and the wire mesh demister 19 effectively intercepts liquid droplets and solid particles entrained in the gas, preventing corrosive or high-temperature liquids from entering the blowout preventer separator and ensuring the safety of the gas discharge pipeline. Furthermore, the gas discharge section is configured to be normally open, collaboratively controlling the pressure in the discharge tank 9.

[0034] The solid-liquid discharge section of the present invention includes a solid discharge pipeline and a liquid discharge pipeline. The solid discharge pipeline is equipped with a solid discharge valve 10, and the liquid discharge pipeline is equipped with a liquid discharge valve 11. The present invention achieves the separation and discharge of solid residue and cooled liquid through the provision of solid discharge valve 10 and liquid discharge valve 11, avoiding mixed discharge and clogging the pipeline, while facilitating subsequent classification and processing.

[0035] The present invention also provides a high-pressure fluid processing method for supercritical hydrothermal combustion, which is based on a high-pressure fluid processing system for supercritical hydrothermal combustion and includes the following steps: S1. Connect and check the integrity of the high-pressure fluid handling system; S2. When the high-pressure pipeline and the low-pressure pipeline introduce fluid into the discharge tank 9, the monitoring unit monitors the temperature and pressure of several positions of the system body in real time and uploads the real-time temperature and pressure parameters to the controller; the controller is used to control the switching of the high-pressure system safety valve 6 and the low-pressure system safety valve 5, the switching of the cooling water valve 4, and the closing or opening of the gas discharge part and the solid-liquid discharge part according to the real-time temperature and pressure parameters of the several positions of the system body, so that the fluid in the discharge tank 9 is within the preset values ​​of temperature, pressure and liquid level.

[0036] In some embodiments, the present invention is a high-pressure fluid processing system for supercritical hydrothermal combustion, and a discharge tank 9 is provided, which receives the fluid discharged by the low-pressure system safety valve 5 and the high-pressure system safety valve 6; the high-pressure system safety valve 6 is connected to the high-pressure pipeline, which enters the discharge tank at the bottom of the discharge tank 9; the low-pressure system safety valve 5 is connected to the low-pressure pipeline, which enters the discharge tank at the top of the discharge tank 9; a gas discharge valve 7 is provided on the upper part of the discharge tank 9, and the gas is discharged to the blowout preventer separator 18 after being filtered by the wire mesh demister 19; a safety valve 8 is provided on the discharge tank 9, which discharges the fluid into the blowout separator 18 when overpressure occurs; a solid discharge valve 10 and a liquid discharge valve 11 are provided at the lower part of the discharge tank 9, which are used to separate and discharge the solid and liquid fluids in the discharge tank 9.

[0037] The discharge tank 9 of the present invention is equipped with the following monitoring and control devices: a pressure monitoring device 12 for real-time monitoring of the pressure in the discharge tank 9; a first temperature device 14, a second temperature device 15 and a third temperature device 16 for monitoring the temperature of the high-pressure pipeline, the low-pressure pipeline and the inside of the discharge tank 9; a liquid level gauge 13 for monitoring the liquid level of the fluid in the discharge tank 9; the liquid level gauge 13 is interlocked with the cooling pump 2. When the liquid level in the discharge tank 9 is too high, the cooling pump 2 is stopped and the external discharge is started.

[0038] The present invention's discharge tank 9 is interlocked with the cooling system, including the following: When any of the first, second, and third temperature sensors 14, 15, and 16 detects a temperature exceeding 80°C, the cooling pump 2 activates, injecting cooling water from the cooling water tank 1 through the cooling water valve 4 into the discharge tank 9 for cooling. A backpressure valve 3 and a cooling water circulation valve 4 are installed in the cooling water circuit to ensure that the cooling water circuit maintains pressure when there is no cooling demand, and to enable rapid, pressurized injection of cooling water into the discharge tank 9 when needed. Furthermore, the liquid discharge valve 11 is interlocked with the fourth temperature sensor 17, allowing discharge only when the fluid temperature in the discharge tank 9 is below 60°C. The discharge control of the liquid level gauge 13 takes precedence over the interlocking control of the liquid discharge valve 11 and the fourth temperature sensor 17.

[0039] The discharge tank 9 of the present invention is connected to the blowout preventer 18 via the gas discharge valve 7 and is equipped with a wire mesh demister 19 to prevent liquid from being discharged with the gas, ensuring efficient and safe gas-liquid separation. Furthermore, in some embodiments, the cooling system of the present invention can achieve rapid cooling of the high-temperature fluid within the discharge tank 9 by optimizing the cooling water injection structure and the fluid contact area design.

[0040] Specifically, the high-pressure fluid processing system for supercritical hydrothermal combustion of the present invention begins with a discharge tank 9 receiving discharge fluid from both the low-pressure system safety valve 5 and the high-pressure system safety valve 6. The high-pressure system safety valve 6 is connected to a high-pressure pipeline, with fluid entering the discharge tank from the bottom of the pipeline. The low-pressure system safety valve 5 is connected to a low-pressure pipeline, with fluid entering the discharge tank 9 from the top of the pipeline. The design of the discharge tank 9 ensures that high-pressure and low-pressure fluids enter the tank at different locations, achieving optimal fluid distribution.

[0041] Specifically: the pressure monitoring device 12 is used to detect the pressure inside the discharge tank 9 in real time to ensure that the pressure of the discharge tank 9 is within a safe range; the first temperature device 14, the second temperature device 15 and the third temperature device 16 are used to monitor the temperature inside the high-pressure pipeline, the low-pressure pipeline and the discharge tank 9 respectively. When any one of the first temperature device 14, the second temperature device 15 and the third temperature device 16 monitors a temperature exceeding 80°C, the cooling pump 2 is started and the system will start the cooling mechanism to cool down; the liquid level meter 13 is linked with the cooling pump 2 to avoid the danger caused by excessively high liquid level in the discharge tank 9.

[0042] The cooling system cools the fluid in the discharge tank 9 via a cooling water tank 1, cooling pump 2, and cooling water valve 4. The specific operation is as follows: When the first, second, and third temperature sensors 14, 15, and 16 detect that the fluid temperature exceeds 80°C, cooling pump 2 activates, and cooling water is injected into the discharge tank 9 through cooling water valve 4 for cooling. The cooling water injection pattern and flow rate are dynamically adjusted based on the temperature changes in the discharge tank 9 to ensure rapid cooling. A back-pressure valve 3 (to ensure the pipeline after the pump is pressurized) and a cooling water circulation valve 4 are installed in the cooling water circuit to ensure that the cooling water circuit maintains pressure when there is no cooling demand, and to enable rapid injection of pressurized cooling water into the discharge tank 9 when required.

[0043] After the fluid in discharge tank 9 cools to a safe temperature, liquid discharge valve 11 and solid discharge valve 10 are controlled in conjunction to discharge the fluid. Liquid discharge valve 11 is interlocked with the fourth temperature control device, ensuring that the liquid is discharged only when the temperature of the fluid in discharge tank 9 is below 60°C. Solid discharge valve 10 is used to discharge the solid matter separated from discharge tank 9, ensuring the safe handling of the fluid in discharge tank 9.

[0044] Finally, it should be noted that the above is only a preferred embodiment of the present invention and does not limit the present invention in any form. Any ordinary technician in this industry can smoothly implement the present invention as shown in the specification and described above. Any equivalent changes, modifications and evolutions made by using the technical content disclosed above are all equivalent embodiments of the present invention. At the same time, any equivalent changes, modifications and evolutions made to the above embodiments based on the essential technology of the present invention are still within the scope of protection of the technical solution of the present invention.
