[0056] The design idea of the embodiments of the application will be briefly introduced as follows:
[0057] In recent years, global energy consumption has surged and is expected to continue to rise. In the past 40 years, hydrocarbons (HC) have dominated global energy consumption, with their use increasing by 185% between 1970 and 2012. Considering environmental degradation and energy shortages, industrial energy saving and emission reduction is a key measure to address these challenges. As the third largest emitter of greenhouse gases, the chemical industry is also the largest consumer of fossil fuels in the industrial sector, and is a key factor in the above problems.
[0058] As the core platform of energy conversion and multi-energy collaborative utilization in industrial production, industrial steam system (ISS) is one of the main sources of carbon emissions while supporting the continuous operation of industry. The traditional system generally has problems such as high energy consumption, high carbon emission and high operation cost, which is difficult to meet the current green and low-carbon development requirements. With the continuous decline in the cost of renewable energy such as wind and solar energy, it has become an urgent need to build a low-carbon, efficient and clean industrial steam system. Moreover, the traditional ISS mainly relies on industrial boilers burning fossil fuels to generate steam, and through multi-stage extraction by extraction steam turbines to drive on-site motors. To meet the demand of different process units for each grade of steam, the system usually uses pressure reducing valves for steam pressure regulation and distribution. However, this kind of traditional energy system has the problems of high operation cost and high carbon emission intensity, which has been difficult to meet the emission reduction requirements under the current industrial green transformation and "double carbon" target.
[0059] In view of the above problems, the embodiments of the present application provide a steam methanol production optimization method, an optimization method, equipment, medium and product of an industrial steam-green methanol collaborative production system.

[0060] Further, in order to meet the current green and low-carbon development requirements, the embodiments of the present application also provide a low-carbon, efficient and clean industrial steam system, i.e. an industrial steam-green methanol collaborative production system, thereby providing a theoretical basis and decision support for realizing the low-carbonization and high adaptability operation of the industrial steam system. The embodiments of the present application introduce wind power, solar energy, electrolytic water hydrogen production and green methanol process, construct an industrial steam-green methanol collaborative production system under renewable energy penetration (Renewable Energy-Integrated Steam-Methanol Production system, RE-ISMP), form a system structure of energy-matter-carbon linkage, and use an interactive upper and lower bound solving algorithm and a scenario tree generation method to solve the interval parameter optimization model and the two-stage random optimization model under the condition of considering steam load fluctuation, wind speed and solar radiation and other multi-source uncertainties, thereby providing a theoretical basis and decision support for realizing the low-carbonization and high adaptability operation of the industrial steam system.
[0061] The method and system provided by the exemplary embodiments of the present application will be described below with reference to the accompanying drawings. It should be noted that the above-mentioned application scenarios are only shown for the purpose of facilitating the understanding of the spirit and principles of the present application, and the embodiments of the present application are not limited in this respect.
[0062] Firstly, the embodiments of the present application provide an industrial steam-green methanol co-production system, which comprises:
[0063] A steam energy module, comprising an industrial boiler, a steam turbine and a pressure reducing valve, is used to generate and distribute steam.
[0064] A renewable energy module, comprising a wind turbine and a solar collector, is used to convert wind energy into electricity and convert solar energy into low-pressure steam.
[0065] A methanol production module, comprising an electrolytic cell and a methanol synthesis reactor, is used to generate hydrogen through electrolysis by electricity in the electrolytic cell, and to generate methanol by reacting carbon dioxide in industrial flue gas with the hydrogen in the methanol synthesis reactor.
[0066] Specifically, referring to Figure 1 Fig. 1 shows a system architecture schematic diagram of an industrial steam-green methanol co-production system provided by the embodiments of the present application, which Figure 1 demonstrates the architecture of the co-optimization of the industrial steam system and the methanol production system under the penetration of renewable energy, wherein the industrial steam-green methanol co-production system can optimize energy conversion and distribution by integrating renewable energy such as solar energy and wind energy, so as to improve the economic and environmental benefits of the system. Moreover, Figure 1 detailed description of the key components in the system and their interconnection mode, including a fuel oil boiler (BO), an extraction turbine (ET), a motor (MS), a pressure reducing valve (RV) and an industrial flue gas capture device. The fuel oil boiler generates high-temperature and high-pressure steam, the extraction turbine and the motor drive the system equipment, and the pressure reducing valve adjusts the steam pressure. The carbon dioxide in the industrial flue gas is captured and used for methanol synthesis. The methanol production system is composed of an electrolytic cell, a methanol synthesis device and a wind turbine, and the electrolytic cell generates hydrogen, which reacts with the captured carbon dioxide to generate methanol. The solar collector provides heat energy, and the wind turbine generates electricity to assist the system operation. Figure 1 The energy flow is also indicated in Fig. 1, including solar energy (SS), industrial steam (IS), methanol (MS), fuel oil (LS), carbon dioxide (CO2), hydrogen (H2), methanol (CH3OH) and water (H2O), which clearly demonstrates the co-working mechanism of the traditional industrial energy system and the renewable energy.
[0067] In a possible implementation, the industrial boiler in the embodiments of the present application is used to convert chemical energy of fuel into heat energy, generate high-temperature and high-pressure steam, and output to a steam turbine. The steam turbine is used to perform steam expansion based on the steam of the industrial boiler, output mechanical energy, and distribute steam to a pressure reducing valve. The pressure reducing valve is used to perform steam pressure reduction operation based on preset inlet and outlet pressure thresholds, and output pressure-reduced steam meeting the preset pressure condition to a steam pipe network.
[0068] Specifically, the industrial boiler (BO) in the present application is the core equipment of the steam energy module, and its main function is to convert chemical energy of fuel into heat energy, thereby generating high-temperature and high-pressure steam to meet the heat load demand in the industrial production process.
[0069] In a possible implementation, since different types of boilers have significant differences in steam supply mode, energy efficiency level and environmental impact, and the commonly used boiler types in the industry at present include coal-fired boilers, natural gas boilers and oil-fired boilers, among which oil-fired boilers are still widely used in many industries due to their high fuel energy density and stable combustion process, especially suitable for areas where natural gas supply is limited or specific industrial scenarios. Therefore, considering that the performance parameters (such as thermal efficiency, operating load and steam production capacity) of the boiler have an important influence on system optimization in the process of modeling the steam system, the oil-fired boiler is selected as the modeling object in the present application, which generates superheated steam (SS) by burning light oil or heavy oil and other fuels.
[0070] Specifically, the calculation formula of the boiler efficiency in the present application is as follows:
[0071]
[0072] Among them, represents the efficiency of the industrial boiler;
[0073] and is a parameter fitted by a large amount of historical data of the industrial boiler, and the working efficiency of the boiler is also related to the maximum flow rate of the boiler outlet .
[0074] The balance formula of the fuel flow rate and heat of the boiler is as follows:
[0075]
[0076] Among them, represents the flow rate of SS generated at the outlet of the BO, represents the flow rate of fuel used for combustion of the BO.
[0077] H ss , H cwrespectively, LHV represents the heat value of fuel, and the production of super-high pressure steam needs to be guaranteed within a predetermined range in industrial production:
[0078]
[0079] wherein, respectively, represent the upper and lower limits of the BO outlet SS flow.
[0080] In a possible implementation, the steam turbine in the application is used as a key heat energy conversion device in the steam energy module, which undertakes the functions of regulating and supplying multi-stage steam and is a core link between the high-temperature heat source and the terminal load.
[0081] Specifically, to meet the flexible demand for steam of different pressure grades in industrial processes, the steam turbine is generally divided into two categories: extraction steam turbine (ET) and back-pressure steam turbine (BT). Among them, ET usually adopts a multi-stage extraction structure, which is divided into multiple expansion stages according to the steam pressure gradient, and the performance is optimized in combination with isentropic efficiency. By setting extraction ports at different stages, accurate control and flexible allocation of multi-pressure grade steam can be realized to improve the heat energy utilization efficiency of the system. Therefore, to accurately describe the operation behavior of ET, the application examples will model it based on a large amount of historical operation data, so as to determine its key thermodynamic parameters.
[0082] Specifically, the working process of ET in the application can be described by enthalpy change, wherein H et,in , H et,ext , H et,exh respectively represent the inlet enthalpy, extraction enthalpy and exhaust enthalpy of ET, and the thermodynamic characteristics and energy conversion process can be shown as follows:
[0083]
[0084] wherein, represents the flow rate of extraction, represents the flow rate of exhaust, respectively represent the minimum flow rate and maximum flow rate of the inlet flow rate of ET, as shown below:
[0085]
[0086] Further, the working principle of the back-pressure steam turbine is shown in the following formula:
[0087]
[0088] wherein, Hbt,in , H bt,out respectively represent the inlet enthalpy and the outlet enthalpy of the back pressure turbine; respectively represent the shaft power generated by the BT, and the BT inlet steam flow.
[0089] In a possible implementation, the motor serves as a driving unit in the steam energy module, mainly undertakes the mechanical energy conversion task, and is a key component for realizing continuous and stable operation of the process equipment.
[0090] Specifically, to improve the overall energy efficiency level and operation economy of the system, a motor and BT collaborative driving strategy is usually adopted to realize optimal scheduling and efficient distribution of energy. In the embodiments of the present application, based on idealized assumptions, the motor does not have power loss during operation and always stably outputs at rated power. On this basis, the energy conversion process of the motor can be characterized by a mathematical model, and the power input-output characteristics and energy efficiency relationship are as follows:
[0091]
[0092] wherein the total power used by the motor is P Motor , the driving power of the steam is P bt , and σ bt is a binary integer variable. When σ bt is 1, the motor is driven by electricity; and when σ bt is 0, it means that the motor is driven by steam.
[0093] In a possible implementation, the letdown valve (LV) is a key control unit for adjusting the pressure and temperature of the steam in the steam energy module, and is widely used in multi-stage steam supply structures to meet the needs of different process units for pressure levels and to ensure the safety and stability of system operation. The LV reduces the pressure and temperature of the steam through a throttling process to meet the working conditions of the downstream equipment. However, this throttling process is an irreversible process, and the enthalpy remains unchanged before and after pressure reduction, but due to the lack of energy recovery mechanism, the effective energy of the steam is significantly lost, thereby reducing the overall energy utilization efficiency of the system. Therefore, the embodiments of the present application will optimize the design of the industrial steam system, and the use frequency and load of the LV should be reduced as much as possible.
[0094] Specifically, the energy conservation and mass conservation relationship of the LV is as follows:
[0095]
[0096] wherein the related thermodynamic parameters H lv,in , H lv,out and H lv,cwThey represent the enthalpy of the LV inlet steam, the enthalpy of the outlet steam and the enthalpy of the circulating water respectively. These parameters are fitted by the least squares method through a large amount of historical data. The main problem is that the steam throttling process cannot recover energy.
[0097] In summary, during optimization, it is necessary to reasonably constrain the use of the pressure relief valve to reduce unnecessary energy loss. Therefore, the embodiment of the present application imposes constraints on the inlet steam flow through the LV to optimize system operation, improve energy utilization efficiency, and reduce operating costs. The specific constraints are as follows:
[0098]
[0099] in, They represent the minimum and maximum flow rates of the LV inlet steam respectively, in t / h.
[0100] In one possible implementation, the wind turbine in the embodiment of the present application is used to generate wind power and output the generated electrical energy to the electrolyzer. The solar collector is used to convert solar energy into thermal energy and output the generated steam to the steam network.
[0101] In one possible implementation, wind turbines (WTs) are highly efficient renewable energy conversion devices widely used in areas with abundant wind resources. They demonstrate excellent power generation performance and potential for large-scale deployment, particularly in coastal areas and areas with high wind speeds. As a key component of green energy, WTs convert wind energy into electricity, effectively reducing reliance on fossil fuels and mitigating the carbon emissions and environmental pollution associated with traditional thermal power generation.
[0102] Specifically, in the embodiment of the present application, WT is incorporated into the green power supply structure of the renewable energy module. As the main clean energy input unit, it can not only provide partial power support for industrial loads, but also has the potential to supply power to the people's livelihood power grid, further promoting the low-carbon and sustainable transformation of the energy system.
[0103] Specifically, the power generation capacity and operating characteristics of WT can be described by a mathematical model, and the corresponding power output relationship is as follows:
[0104]
[0105] Among them, P rated Indicates the rated power of the wind turbine, v really,t , v in , v out , v rated They respectively represent the actual wind speed, cut-in wind speed, cut-out wind speed and the rated wind speed for normal operation of the fan, all in m / s.
[0106] In one possible implementation, the solar heat collector (SHC) in the embodiments of the present application is a key heat conversion device that converts solar radiation energy into heat energy, and is widely used in the field of renewable energy. In the renewable energy module of the present application, the solar heat collector is mainly used for the production of low-pressure low-temperature steam to meet the energy demand of a specific industrial process.
[0107] Specifically, the SHC converts solar radiation into heat energy by absorbing it, and the total heat absorbed depends on multiple key factors, including the surface absorption efficiency of the collector, the effective heat collection area, and the intensity of solar radiation. In order to accurately describe the heat energy conversion process of the SHC, the embodiments of the present application can use a mathematical model for quantitative analysis, and the mathematical expression is as follows:
[0108]
[0109] where S shc represents the surface area of the SHC, R solar,t (φ) represents the product of solar radiation and heat absorption efficiency at time t, U L (T in -T a represents the energy reduced due to heat loss of the SHC. The temperature difference between the fluid in the SHC T in and the ambient temperature T a affects the efficiency of heat transfer.
[0110]
[0111] The production of low-pressure steam LS needs to meet the energy balance condition shown in the above formula, where C cw represents the flow rate of low-pressure steam produced by the SHC at time t, C sat , C cw , r LS represents the specific heat capacity of water, saturated steam, and the latent heat of water, T sat , T cw represents the temperature of low-pressure steam, saturated steam, and heating water.
[0112] In one possible implementation, the electrolytic cell in the embodiments of the present application is used to perform a water electrolysis reaction based on the electrical energy of a wind turbine, and outputs hydrogen gas to a methanol synthesis reactor. The methanol synthesis reactor is used to perform a catalytic synthesis reaction based on the hydrogen gas from the electrolytic cell and carbon dioxide in industrial flue gas, to generate methanol.
[0113] In one possible implementation, the hydrogen production by electrolysis of water in the methanol production module in the embodiments of the present application is a typical clean and sustainable hydrogen production path, which has important application value in the context of energy structure transformation. Compared with traditional fossil fuel hydrogen production processes (such as natural gas steam reforming), the hydrogen production technology by electrolysis of water does not need to rely on fossil energy, and theoretically does not produce greenhouse gas emissions in the hydrogen production process, and is widely recognized as an important technical support for realizing green hydrogen production. The hydrogen (H2) generated by electrolysis of water can be widely used in fuel cells, power storage and industrial raw materials in many low-carbon fields, and provides a key foundation for building a clean energy system.
[0114] Specifically, in the methanol production module in the embodiments of the present application, hydrogen production by electrolysis of water can be realized by running an electrolyzer (ER), which generates hydrogen (H2) and byproduct oxygen (O2) by driving a water decomposition reaction through external electric energy. The electrochemical mechanism of this process is described by the following chemical reaction formula. The energy consumption level of the electrolyzer directly affects the power load distribution and hydrogen production rate of the system, and is an important parameter in the energy flow modeling and carbon emission reduction effect evaluation of the system. The specific reaction equation is as follows:
[0115]
[0116] Current hydrogen production by electrolysis of water mainly includes alkaline electrolyzer (AE) and proton exchange membrane electrolyzer (PEM). Compared with traditional AE, PEM has significant advantages in energy conversion efficiency, structural compactness and electrolysis stability, and is therefore widely regarded as a key technical path for efficient green hydrogen production. In the embodiments of the present application, a PEM electrolyzer can be selected as a hydrogen production unit to improve the energy efficiency and low-carbon operation capability of the system.
[0117] Further, to simplify the electrochemical reaction mechanism and improve the solvability of the model, a simplified mathematical model of the PEM is constructed in the present application, and its expression is as follows:
[0118]
[0119] wherein, represents the mass of hydrogen produced, in kg / h, η PTH represents the conversion efficiency of power-to-H2, ω PTH refers to the conversion factor of power-to-H2.
[0120] In one possible implementation, the methanol production in the embodiments of the present application is a sustainable chemical production path integrating carbon capture and renewable energy driving, aiming to realize efficient utilization of carbon dioxide resources and deep emission reduction of industrial systems. In the process, the carbon dioxide (CO2) discharged by the system is captured and then reacts with green hydrogen (H2) produced by electrolytic cells driven by renewable energy such as wind energy and solar energy under catalytic conditions to generate methanol (CH3OH). This process not only has significant carbon emission reduction potential, but also builds an efficient carbon capture and utilization (Carbon Capture and Utilization, CCU) path, providing technical support for the green transformation of industrial energy systems.
[0121] Specifically, the processing process of the methanol production module in the embodiments of the present application mainly includes the following three core links: (1) green hydrogen is prepared by wind power or solar power generation. (2) CO2 is recovered from industrial emission sources by using carbon capture technology. (3) CO2 and H2 are driven to occur methanol synthesis reaction under specific catalyst and reaction conditions.
[0122] In the above reaction process, carbon dioxide and hydrogen combine to produce methanol, and the chemical reaction equation is as follows:
[0123] CO2(g)+3H2(g)→CH3OH+H2O(g)
[0124] In an ideal case, the relationship between the amount of carbon dioxide and hydrogen and the methanol production is as follows:

Figure 2 FIG. 1 shows a schematic diagram of the operation of an RE-ISMP system provided by the embodiments of the present application, which comprehensively shows the collaborative optimization architecture of the industrial steam system and the methanol production system. The system realizes efficient utilization of energy and production of chemicals by integrating solar energy, wind energy and traditional energy. Figure 2The energy flow between different devices is also indicated, including flue gas, steam, circulating water, and electricity. The steam demand (HS, MS, LS) corresponds to different levels of steam demand, respectively 192.5, 130, and 52.5 units. In addition, Figure 2 The unit conversion between the power system and the production system is also shown, with the power system unit being kWh and the steam system and production system unit being t / h.

Further, Figure 3 The operation variables of the material flow, energy consumption, and power output of each module in the RE-ISMP system provided by the embodiments of the present application are shown. In the model, the required power is completely supplied by wind turbines, achieving full renewable of the power system. At the same time, the system uses electric motors to completely replace traditional back-pressure steam turbines to drive key unit operations. This configuration selection is based on the current modeling results, and using wind power under existing conditions not only has high cleanliness, but also has significant economic advantages, so it becomes the optimal driving energy form in the system.

[0129] Reference Figure 4 As shown in the figure, a flowchart of an optimization method for an industrial steam-green methanol co-production system provided by the embodiments of the present application is shown. The specific implementation process of the method is as follows:
[0130] Step 401: Based on the cost objective function of the industrial steam-green methanol co-production system, an interval parameter optimization model is constructed.
[0131] In the embodiments of the present application, the cost target function integrates the equipment cost, operation cost and carbon emission cost of the system. The present application establishes a mixed integer linear programming (MILP) model with the minimum operation cost and carbon tax cost as the target through the operation mechanism of the key units of the industrial steam-green methanol co-production system such as the boiler, extraction steam turbine and electrolytic cell.
[0132] In a possible implementation, the embodiments of the present application can determine the average equipment cost of the industrial steam-green methanol co-production system through a preset discount rate and equipment life; determine the average operation cost of the industrial steam-green methanol co-production system through a preset unit price coefficient; and determine the average carbon emission cost of the industrial steam-green methanol co-production system through the carbon tax unit price and total carbon emission, so as to determine the total average cost of the industrial steam-green methanol co-production system according to the average equipment cost, average operation cost and average carbon emission cost, and determine the corresponding cost target function.
[0133] Specifically, the embodiments of the present application take minimizing the comprehensive cost of the RE-ISMP system as the optimization target, aiming to synergistically improve the economy and environmental sustainability of the system. The target function systematically integrates multiple cost elements, including boiler fuel consumption, purchased circulating water cost, motor electricity cost, investment and operation and maintenance cost of renewable energy equipment, electrolytic cell equipment cost, methanol synthesis processing cost, purchased low-pressure steam cost and carbon tax cost, etc. At the same time, economic return factors such as green methanol product sales, power surplus feedback to the power grid, and low-pressure steam sales revenue are considered, so as to maximize the overall economic benefit on the basis of guaranteeing the carbon emission reduction target.
[0134] Specifically, the total annual average cost TAC of the system in the embodiments of the present application is as follows:
[0135]
[0136] Among them, AOC, AEC and ACC represent the annual average operation cost, the annual average equipment cost and the annual average carbon emission cost, respectively.
[0137] c fuel , c water , c e , c ls , c tax , c wt , c solar , c ER , c pro represent the prices of fuel, water, electricity, purchased low-pressure steam, sold green methanol, carbon tax, wind turbine and solar collector and methanol processing, respectively.
[0138] r, y represent the discount rate and the operating year, respectively, represents the carbon emissions in the entire industrial process, as follows:
[0139]
[0140] In the industrial production process, different temperatures and pressures of steam provided by the industrial energy system are consumed to meet various production demands. Therefore, in the production process, it is necessary to ensure that each level of steam meets the energy balance of different demands. Therefore, the embodiments of the present application also provide coupling constraints between each level of model, as follows:
[0141]
[0142]
[0143] wherein, represents the demand for high-pressure steam, medium-pressure steam, and low-pressure steam at time t, respectively.
[0144] P ER ,P os , represents the amount of electricity used for electrolytic cell hydrogen production and the amount of electricity purchased from the power grid to make up for the insufficient power demand, and the maximum power of the electrolytic cell.
[0145] represents the output of hydrogen produced by electrolysis of water, and the minimum and maximum values, represents the flow rate of purchased low-pressure steam and the minimum flow rate of low-pressure steam, in t / h.
[0146] Therefore, on the basis of the objective function of minimizing the total cost of the system, the embodiments of the present application combine the coupling constraints of each unit device in the energy and material flow level to construct an industrial steam system and methanol co-production optimization model under the background of renewable energy penetration, i.e. the uncertainty optimization model in the embodiments of the present application. The model covers multiple types of variables such as continuous variables (such as energy flow, mass flow) and binary decision variables (such as equipment start-stop state, driving mode selection), has strong structural complexity, and the optimization problem of the industrial steam-green methanol co-production system is formalized as a mixed-integer linear programming (MILP) model.
[0147] Step 402: Based on the uncertainty factors of the industrial steam-green methanol co-production system, a stochastic optimization model is constructed.
[0148] In the embodiment of the present application, considering that the industrial steam-green methanol collaborative production system is affected by multiple sources of uncertainty factors such as steam load fluctuations, wind speed and solar radiation, a multi-period interval parameter optimization model and a two-stage stochastic optimization model are constructed. Among them, the interval parameter optimization model is used to convert steam load fluctuations into interval variables to deal with the seasonal uncertainty of steam demand. The stochastic optimization model is used to generate a renewable energy output scenario tree based on the historical probability distribution of wind speed and solar radiation to deal with the random fluctuations of wind and solar energy supply.
[0149] In a possible implementation, the embodiment of the present application may construct an interval parameter optimization model by combining historical steam load fluctuation data, historical wind speed time series, and historical solar radiation intensity data with a preset interval parameter planning strategy.
[0150] Specifically, the embodiments of the present application take into account the periodic changes in wind speed and solar radiation in different months, as well as the daily fluctuations in industrial steam demand. The system operating parameters need to be dynamically adjusted with external conditions, thereby presenting certain variability and uncertainty during operation. Based on the Interval Parameter Programming (IPP) theory, the key parameters related to steam demand in the REISMP system are modeled in the form of intervals, and a multi-period REISMP interval optimization model, namely, an interval parameter optimization model, is constructed. Through this interval parameter optimization model, steam load fluctuations are converted into interval variables to deal with the seasonal uncertainty of steam demand.
[0151] In one possible implementation, the stochastic optimization model in the embodiments of the present application is divided into two phases: the first phase is used to determine the configuration decision variable X1 of the renewable energy equipment, and the second phase is to optimize the operational variable X2 during the operation period, thereby achieving hierarchical optimization coordination between the equipment layer and the operation layer. The objective function of the model is to minimize the total annual cost, specifically including the annual average equipment cost AEC of the renewable energy equipment, the annual average carbon emission cost ACC, and the annual average operating cost AOC, as shown below:
[0152]
[0153] In addition, except for the investment cost, the remaining operating parameters of the system in the embodiment of the present application are modeled in the form of intervals to characterize the feasible variation range of the system operating parameters under multi-source uncertainty conditions, thereby determining the operating boundaries of the system.
[0154] Furthermore, in the embodiment of the present application, the constraints corresponding to the boiler, turbine, motor, and renewable energy of the system still follow the constraints of deterministic optimization. Only the steam balance constraint needs to be re-described as follows:
[0155]
[0156] In summary, according to the statistical wind speed and solar radiation average values in a certain time range (for example, 12 months), the interval parameter optimization problem can be described as an interval parameter MILP problem.
[0157] Step 403: Based on the preset interactive upper and lower bound solving strategy, the interval parameter optimization model and the random optimization model are solved to determine the target system parameters of the industrial steam-green methanol collaborative production system.
[0158] In the embodiments of the present application, after considering the steam load fluctuation, wind speed, solar radiation and other multi-source uncertainty factors, the interval parameter optimization model and the random optimization model in the multi-period are constructed, the interactive upper and lower bound solving algorithm and the scene tree generation method are used to solve the interval parameter optimization model and the random optimization model, so as to determine the target system parameters of the industrial steam-green methanol collaborative production system, and the industrial steam-green methanol collaborative production system is optimized based on the target system parameters.
[0159] In a possible implementation, the lower bound sub-model can be constructed based on the lower limit value of the steam demand interval of the interval parameter optimization model to determine the first equipment configuration parameter and the first operation parameter. The upper limit value of the steam demand interval is obtained by fixing the first equipment configuration parameter, and the upper bound sub-model is constructed to solve the second operation parameter. The first operation parameter and the second operation parameter are combined to determine the feasible solution domain of the target operation parameter of the industrial steam-green methanol collaborative production system.
[0160] Specifically, the interval parameter optimization problem is described as an interval parameter MILP problem, and for the MILP problem, the branch and cut algorithm is used to obtain the global optimal solution of the current optimization problem. For the IPP problem, the interactive algorithm is used to solve the interval parameter programming problem. The IPP can be described as follows:
[0161] min F ± = A ± X ±
[0162] s.t. A ± X ± ≤ B ±
[0163] X ± ≥ 0
[0164] The interactive algorithm is divided into three steps. The first step is to divide the model into two sub-models according to the variables and constraints of the original problem, and the two sub-models correspond to the lower bound and upper bound of the original problem. Then the corresponding solution is solved according to the two sub-models. The third step is to integrate the solutions of the two sub-models into the form of an interval to obtain the optimal solution of the original model. The RE-ISMP system designed in combination with the present application divides the optimization problem into two sub-models. In actual problems, the introduction of general equipment must meet the demand of the lower limit, so the lower bound model of the RE-ISMP interval optimization problem is expressed as:
[0165] minTAC = minAEC + AOC + ACC
[0166]
[0167] The steam demand in the constraint is set as the minimum value of the interval, so the constraint can be expressed as:
[0168]
[0169] The optimal solution is obtained using the Gams solver The renewable energy equipment solution in the optimal solution calculated by the lower bound is fixed, and the steam demand is adjusted to the maximum value of the interval, that is, the upper bound sub-model, which can be described as:
[0170]
[0171] The constraint is:
[0172]
[0173] Wherein, The optimal solution can be obtained by solving the value calculated by the lower bound sub-model. In combination with the lower bound sub-model, the upper bound sub-model, the optimal solution of the original IPP model is:
[0174]
[0175] TAC ± = [TAC - , TAC + ]
[0176] In one possible implementation, the present application embodiment provides an IPP interactive solving process, as shown below:
[0177] Establishing an IPP model of the RE-ISMP system;
[0178] Based on the interactive solution, the IPP model of the RE-ISMP system is decomposed into a lower bound sub-model and an upper bound sub-model, where the lower bound sub-model corresponds to the minimum annual total cost TAC finally solved. - , the upper bound sub-model corresponds to the maximum annual total cost TAC + ;
[0179] Establish the lower bound sub-model;
[0180] Solve the lower bound sub-model to obtain the renewable energy equipment variables The solution of and the solution of the operating variables of the RE-ISMP system and the minimum annual total cost TAC - ;
[0181] Establish the upper bound submodel;
[0182] Renewable energy equipment variables The solution of is brought into the lower bound submodel to obtain the solution of the operating variables of the RE-ISMP system and the maximum annual total cost TAC + ;
[0183] Merge the solutions of the two submodels.
[0184] In one possible implementation, reference Figure 5 The figure shows a schematic diagram of the interval parameter optimization results of a boiler flow provided by an embodiment of the present application. After the interval parameter optimization, the steam flow of boiler 1 remains unchanged, and its inlet flow in each month of the year is stable at 35.02t / h, and the outlet flow is maintained at 170t / h, indicating that it is a base load device in the system, with a stable operating state and does not participate in responding to uncertainty disturbances. In contrast, boilers 2 and 3 assume the role of regulating interval parameter disturbances in the system. Among them, boiler 2 is mainly responsible for fine-tuning during the winter (January-February and November-December) to adapt to slight fluctuations in the load; and boiler 3, as the main regulating device, has a larger fluctuation range in its inlet and outlet steam flows throughout the year, reflecting its greater flexibility and adjustment capabilities in uncertain scenarios. Through this division of labor and cooperation, the system ensures the effective response of the optimization model to changes in interval parameters while achieving operational robustness.
[0185] In one possible implementation, reference Figure 6 and Figure 7The results of multi-period interval parameter optimization of four extraction steam turbines are respectively shown, and different ET units bear different roles in dealing with uncertain disturbances. The upper limit flow of ET1 fluctuates greatly in the whole year, showing a U-shaped trend, maintaining at a high level in winter (November-December, January-February), and decreasing to about 227 t / h in summer, so ET1 bears the main role of adjusting in the load peak period in the system. The lower limit flow remains stable throughout the year, always maintaining at 221.5 t / h, indicating that ET1 bears the base load role of stable operation in the system. ET2 shows strong seasonal regulation capacity. Its upper limit flow basically maintains at 200 t / h throughout the year, but the lower limit flow decreases to the lowest (about 177 t / h) in May-July, and rises to 195 t / h in winter, indicating that the device adjusts the minimum operating load to cope with the seasonal fluctuations of uncertainty. ET3 has relatively small operation fluctuation, and ET4 shows similar characteristics to ET2, and the upper and lower limits of the overall flow decrease obviously in summer. In summary, ET1 and ET2 mainly bear the main operating load throughout the year, representing the base load support and main regulation capacity of the system, while ET3 and ET4 play an auxiliary regulation role, together ensuring the stability and economy of the system under the uncertainty of interval parameters.
[0186] In a possible implementation, reference is made to Figure 8 The results of multi-period interval optimization of a pressure reducing valve provided by the embodiment of the application are shown. The pressure reducing valve mainly adjusts the steam demand, so the upper and lower limits of LV3 may sometimes show opposite trends, and LV1 and LV2 basically maintain the state of not being used if the steam demand adjustment needs to adjust the pressure reducing valve to control production.
[0187] Step 404: performing optimization processing on the industrial steam-green methanol collaborative production system based on the target system parameters.
[0188] In the embodiment of the application, the target system parameters can include target device parameters and target operation parameters of the industrial steam-green methanol collaborative production system. For example, the target device parameters can include the number of wind turbines, the area of solar heat collectors and the rated power of electrolytic cells, and the target operation parameters can include the feasible solution domain of steam flow, power distribution and methanol production.
[0189] Specifically, the embodiment of the present application can determine the lower limit of boiler fuel supply through the preset minimum extraction flow of the extraction steam turbine; distribute wind power generation through the minimum starting power of the electrolyzer; limit the medium-pressure steam pressure reduction through the maximum opening threshold of the pressure reducing valve; adjust the CO2 capture rate according to the maximum processing capacity of the methanol synthesis reactor; control the steam turbine to perform multi-stage extraction flow distribution, the pressure reducing valve to perform steam pressure reduction operation, and the electrolyzer to perform hydrogen production power distribution, etc., through the operating parameter range obtained by solving.
[0190] In one possible implementation, the embodiments of the present application provide three types of typical optimization frameworks for evaluating the synergistic benefits and system economics under different strategy combinations. First, a base model (BM) is constructed based on the traditional industrial steam system as a reference. Secondly, the optimization model of the industrial steam system after the access of renewable energy (Renewable Energy Integrated Steam System, RE-ISS) is considered to analyze the impact of green energy penetration on the system structure. Finally, a synergistic optimization model of the industrial steam system and the green methanol production system under the penetration of renewable energy (Renewable Energy Integrated Steam–Methanol Production, REISMP) is further constructed to comprehensively evaluate the system's multi-energy complementarity and carbon emission reduction potential.
[0191] Specifically, refer to Figure 9 Shown are schematic diagrams of three application cases of industrial steam system transformation and optimization provided in the embodiments of the present application, namely, a traditional industrial steam system (Case I), a renewable energy industrial steam system (Case II), and a coupling system of industrial steam system and methanol production under renewable energy penetration (Case III). In Case I, the system mainly relies on boilers to generate steam and uses steam turbines for energy conversion, and does not involve renewable energy. Case II introduces solar energy and wind energy, where solar energy is used to heat boilers and wind energy drives steam turbines, thereby improving energy efficiency. Case III further couples methanol production, where solar energy and wind energy are not only used to generate steam, but also to electrolyze water to produce hydrogen, which reacts with captured carbon dioxide to generate methanol, thereby achieving efficient integration of energy and chemical production. In this way, the above three cases describe in detail the gradual optimization process of industrial steam systems from traditional to renewable energy penetration, and how to improve the overall benefits of the system by integrating renewable energy and chemical production processes.
[0192] For further reference, Figure 10A comparison diagram of total cost and carbon emission of different application cases provided by the embodiment of the application, and reference is made to Figure 11 A diagram of optimization results of different optimization models provided by the embodiment of the application, and reference is made to Figure 11 The optimization results of the RE-ISMP system constructed by the embodiment of the application and the comparison results with the BM system and the RE-ISS system of the comparative group are shown in the table. Obviously, compared with the traditional BM system in Case I, the industrial steam system RE-ISS in Case II with renewable energy introduced has a total cost reduction of 4.67% and a carbon emission reduction of 6.36%. In Case I, the system operation cost accounts for 87.8% of the total cost, and the carbon tax cost accounts for 12.2%. In Case II, the operation cost ratio is reduced to 85.8%, the carbon tax cost is 12.0%, and the new investment cost accounts for 2.7%. In the RE-ISS system, 14 wind turbines are introduced to replace industrial electricity, and 344,168 m 2 of solar collectors are configured to meet the low-pressure steam demand, and the system does not set an electrolytic cell and completely relies on the solar collector to provide heat. Case III is the RE-ISMP system designed by the application, which integrates green methanol production. Compared with Case II, the system converts CO2 in industrial tail gas and renewable energy generated electricity into green methanol products with economic value, realizing further economic and environmental benefit improvement. Specifically, the RE-ISMP system further reduces the total cost by 0.02% and reduces carbon emissions by 2.32% compared with Case II. To meet the energy demand of renewable energy power generation for hydrogen production and methanol synthesis, the system adds 75 wind turbines, the area of the solar collector remains unchanged, and the maximum electrolysis power of the electrolytic cell is set to 33,108 KW. In terms of cost structure, the operation cost ratio in Case III is 75.6%, the carbon tax cost is 11.8%, and the investment cost is significantly increased to 12.6%. The results show that the RE-ISMP system realizes further reduction of carbon emissions in the operation stage and efficient use of resources by increasing the initial investment, and has good economic and environmental synergistic benefits.
[0193] Specifically, the embodiment of the present application can use a typical refinery steam system as a benchmark model BM, and verify the effectiveness of the RE-ISMP system optimization model through comparative analysis. Numerical modeling is implemented in a general algebraic modeling system (e.g., GAMS v33.1.0), and is solved by using a branch-and-bound global optimizer BARON. The solver is based on interval analysis and convex relaxation techniques, and has strict global convergence in mixed-integer nonlinear programming problems, and is particularly suitable for non-convex energy system optimization problems. The calculation experiment can be completed on a computing node equipped with an Intel Core i9-14900HX processor, and the maximum memory occupation is 8.3 GB per single iteration.
