Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This invention relates to the technology of waste heat recovery and utilization of coke oven gas in the metallurgical industry, and more specifically, to a method and apparatus for waste heat recovery of raw coke oven gas coupled with coking ammonia water regeneration. Background Technology
[0002] With the increasingly severe environmental problems such as global warming, CO2 emission reduction has become a common challenge for humanity. The steel industry accounts for more than 15% of total CO2 emissions, and steel companies will face enormous pressure to reduce carbon emissions in the long term. The blast furnace-converter process remains the main process in steel production, with blast furnace ironmaking accounting for over 80% of CO2 emissions and over 70% of energy consumption. Therefore, blast furnace ironmaking is crucial for the steel industry to reduce energy consumption and CO2 emissions. One of the raw materials for blast furnace ironmaking is coke, which is produced through coke oven processes. It is estimated that 10% of the carbon emissions per ton of steel produced in the entire process come from coking. In addition, there are a large number of independent coking plants in China, resulting in substantial CO2 emissions from the coking industry, making CO2 emission reduction a significant challenge.
[0003] Emissions from the coking process are mainly concentrated in the combustion of blast furnace gas and coke oven gas, as well as some carbon dioxide emissions from the coking process itself. Additionally, reducing carbon dioxide emissions can be achieved by lowering the overall energy consumption of the coke oven production process.
[0004] The coke oven is a key piece of equipment and a major energy source in coking plants. The heat expenditure of a coke oven mainly consists of three parts: first, the high-temperature waste heat carried out by the red-hot coke exiting the coking chamber, accounting for approximately 37%; second, the medium-temperature waste heat carried out by the high-temperature raw coal gas discharged from the coke oven riser pipe, accounting for approximately 33%; and third, the low-temperature waste heat carried out by the exhaust gas discharged from the coke oven flue, accounting for approximately 17%. Among these, the raw coal gas is formed by the release of volatiles from coking coal during the coking process, typically at a temperature of around 600–800℃, and its sensible heat accounts for approximately 33% of the coke oven's heat expenditure. To lower the temperature of the raw coal gas for subsequent coking processes, traditional processes use ammonia injection for rapid cooling of the high-temperature raw coal gas, drastically reducing its temperature to 80–85℃. This process not only wastes a large amount of the raw coal gas's sensible heat but also consumes a significant amount of ammonia, water, and electricity, increasing wastewater discharge. The high-temperature waste heat from the red-hot coke has been recovered and used for power generation through dry quenching technology; the low-temperature waste heat from the flue gas has also been recovered using coal conditioning, coal drying, and heat pipe technology; however, the 800℃ raw coal gas discharged from the top riser pipe of the coke oven has the second highest heat output from the coke oven, and this medium-temperature waste heat is the last technical hurdle to be overcome in the recovery and utilization of coke oven waste heat and energy.
[0005] Chinese Patent Publication No. CN105605954A proposes a heat pipe-type waste heat recovery system for anti-adhesion raw coal gas. This system draws out the raw coal gas from the riser pipe for heat exchange. However, this system has complex heat exchange equipment, poor heat exchange efficiency, and also poses coal gas safety issues. Furthermore, it requires a large space on the furnace roof, resulting in high investment costs, poor heat exchange efficiency, and poor practicality. Chinese Patent Publication No. CN101888200A discloses a method and device for recovering waste heat from coke oven raw coal gas. This method mainly improves the refractory lining bricks of the riser pipe by using silicon carbide refractory lining bricks. By installing a semiconductor thermoelectric generator module on the outer wall of the riser pipe, the coke oven raw coal gas inside the riser pipe is used as the heat source for the semiconductor thermoelectric generator, and the riser pipe acts as the collector for the semiconductor thermoelectric generator, thus realizing the recovery of waste heat from the coke oven raw coal gas inside the riser pipe. This method has complex equipment, involves electrical issues under high-temperature conditions, poses safety concerns, and does not consider the temperature fluctuations of the coal gas, which could lead to instability in the power generation process. As can be seen from the previous analysis, since the riser pipe waste heat recovery is located at the top of the coke oven and there are a large number of riser pipes, the heat exchange device should be as simple as possible. At the same time, the heat exchange effect, the feasibility of installation at the top of the oven, and the investment and usability also need to be considered. Summary of the Invention

[0021] Preferably, in step S3, the ammonia content in the wastewater from the bottom of the ammonia stripping tower is ≤100mg / L.
[0022] A second aspect of the present invention provides an apparatus for recovering waste heat from coke oven raw gas coupled with regenerating coking ammonia water, comprising:
[0023] A riser heat exchanger is used to exchange heat between heat transfer oil and coke oven gas in a primary heat exchange process.

After heat exchange, the heat transfer oil enters the ammonia water evaporation and recovery process through a pipeline. The heat transfer oil is used to heat the ammonia stripping wastewater in the reboiler. After heating, the wastewater in the ammonia stripping wastewater re-enters the distillation tower for ammonia stripping, achieving the separation of ammonia gas and water, and finally obtaining a high concentration of ammonia water.

At the same time, the heat absorbed by the heat transfer oil is used in the ammonia stripping section to exchange heat with the ammonia stripping wastewater, thus achieving efficient utilization of recovered waste heat. This invention couples the process of waste heat recovery from coke oven gas with ammonia water steam recovery, providing a new path for the recovery of waste heat from coke oven gas and the steam recovery and utilization of residual ammonia water in the coking process.

[0040] In response to the current requirements for carbon emission reduction and energy conservation and cost reduction in production, and also to the problem that a large amount of waste heat from coke oven gas in the coking process is not being fully utilized, current waste heat recovery systems suffer from complex heat exchange equipment, poor heat exchange efficiency, and gas safety issues, as well as requiring a large space, resulting in high investment costs, poor heat exchange efficiency, and poor practicality. This invention provides a method for coke oven gas waste heat recovery coupled with coking ammonia water regeneration. This method not only provides a new approach for efficient heat exchange in coke oven gas systems, but also offers a new pathway for reducing energy consumption through ammonia water evaporation and recovery. By coupling the coke oven gas waste heat recovery process with the efficient reuse of waste heat, the heat exchange efficiency of coke oven gas and the efficient utilization of waste heat can be improved, reducing the overall process cost, simplifying the production process, making operation easier to control, enabling industrialized production, reducing energy consumption in the coking and ironmaking processes, and yielding significant environmental and economic benefits.
[0041] Combination Figure 1 As shown, the method for recovering waste heat from coke oven raw gas coupled with the regeneration of coking ammonia water of the present invention utilizes a riser heat exchanger 1 to perform a primary heat exchange between the coke oven raw gas and heat transfer oil. The heat transfer oil after the primary heat exchange is sent to the reboiler 2 of the ammonia stripping section for a secondary heat exchange with the ammonia stripping wastewater from the ammonia stripping tower 3. The ammonia gas generated by the secondary heat exchange is introduced into the ammonia stripping tower 3 to participate in the ammonia stripping reaction of the remaining ammonia water to obtain ammonia water, thereby realizing the recovery of waste heat from coke oven raw gas and the regeneration of coking ammonia water.
[0042] Combination Figure 1 As shown, the method for recovering waste heat from coke oven raw gas coupled with coking ammonia water regeneration of the present invention specifically includes the following steps:
[0043] S1, the coke oven gas passes through the riser pipe 11 of the riser heat exchanger 1, and the heat transfer oil is introduced through the tube 12 of the riser heat exchanger 1. The coke oven gas and the heat transfer oil flow in opposite directions, and the waste heat of the coke oven gas is recovered through a single heat exchange.
[0044] Coke oven gas is the raw gas produced during the coke oven production process in steel enterprises. It mainly contains hydrogen and methane, as well as small amounts of long-chain alkanes, benzene compounds, and tar containing small amounts of dust. High-temperature resistant heat transfer oil, such as heat transfer oil resistant to 350℃, is selected.

[0046] The aforementioned riser heat exchanger 1 is a self-designed component, comprising a riser pipe 11 and a cylindrical cavity 12 welded to its outer wall. Coke oven gas generated in the coke oven is introduced into the riser pipe 11. The inner wall of the riser pipe 11 is made of high-temperature heat-resistant steel with a roughness of 0.03–0.05 micrometers to prevent carbon buildup on the inner wall.

The ammonia stripping tower 3 can be equipped with 24 trays. In the above-mentioned ammonia stripping reaction process, ammonia gas enters from the fourth tray of the ammonia stripping tower 3 and flows upward. The remaining ammonia water, after being heated by the heat exchanger (the heat exchanger uses heat transfer oil after the first heat exchange), reaches a temperature of 90-95℃ and enters from the 15th tray of the ammonia stripping tower 3 and flows downward. During the ammonia stripping process, the gas at the top of the tower is condensed by the total condenser 4 and enters the reflux tank 5 and then the finished ammonia water tank 6. Some of the ammonia water flows back from the twentieth tray into the ammonia stripping tower 3 to continue participating in the ammonia stripping reaction.
[0052] After the ammonia stripping process is completed, the ammonia stripping wastewater coming out of the bottom of ammonia stripping tower 3 is tested to measure the effectiveness of the ammonia stripping process. In the method of the present invention, the ammonia content in the ammonia stripping wastewater coming out of the bottom of ammonia stripping tower 3 is ≤100mg / L.

[0071] Coke oven gas is the raw coal gas produced during the coking plant's production process. The riser heat exchanger is a self-designed system. The riser pipe carries the raw coal gas, and its inner wall is made of high-temperature heat-resistant steel. A cylindrical cavity is welded to the outer wall of the riser pipe, through which heat transfer oil flows, exchanging heat with the coke oven gas. The riser pipe has an inner diameter of 550mm, an outer cavity diameter of 680mm, and a height of 2.2 meters. The coke oven gas and heat transfer oil flow counter-currently. The inlet temperature of the coke oven gas is 800℃, and the outlet temperature is 550℃. The inlet temperature of the heat transfer oil is 75℃, and the outlet temperature is 320℃. After the first heat exchange, the heat transfer oil is transported via pipeline to the reboiler in the ammonia stripping section, where it undergoes a second heat exchange with ammonia stripping wastewater from the ammonia stripping tower. This converts the wastewater into ammonia vapor at 160℃, which then enters the ammonia stripping tower for the ammonia stripping reaction. The ammonia stripping tower used in the ammonia stripping reaction has 24 trays. Ammonia vapor obtained from the secondary heat exchange enters from the fourth tray and flows upwards. Residual ammonia water with a concentration of 5980 mg / L, after heat exchange, reaches a temperature of 95℃ and enters from the 15th tray, flowing downwards. After the ammonia stripping process, the gas at the top of the tower passes through a total condenser, enters a reflux tank, and then flows into the finished ammonia water tank. Part of the ammonia water flows back into the ammonia stripping tower from the twentieth tray. The temperature of the gas exiting from the top of the tower is 104℃. After ammonia stripping, the wastewater is tested to evaluate the effectiveness of the process. The test results show that the ammonia content in the wastewater is 81 mg / L.
[0072] Those skilled in the art should recognize that the above embodiments are merely illustrative of the present invention and are not intended to limit the present invention. Any variations or modifications to the above embodiments that are within the spirit and essence of the present invention will fall within the scope of the claims of the present invention.
