Description

TECHNICAL FIELD

[0001] The application belongs to the technical field of thermal power generation, and particularly relates to a system and method for coupling aluminum fuel energy storage in biomass blending combustion of a coal-fired unit. BACKGROUND

[0002] As the main power source, coal-fired units are facing great carbon emission reduction pressure and demand for flexibility improvement. On the one hand, in order to achieve deep decarbonization, blending combustion of biomass fuel (such as straw, sawdust, etc.) is considered as a realistic and feasible low-carbon transformation path. Biomass absorbs carbon dioxide during growth, and the carbon released by its combustion can be considered as near-zero emission. By blending combustion, the overall carbon emission intensity of the unit can be significantly reduced, and it is also helpful for the disposal of agricultural and forestry waste. However, there are obvious bottlenecks in the practical application of biomass blending combustion. Biomass resources have strong seasonality and regional characteristics, low energy density, and large fluctuations in fuel characteristics (such as moisture, ash, and volatile matter), making it difficult to supply on a large scale and stably. Direct blending into a coal-fired boiler for combustion can easily affect the stability of combustion, the efficiency of the boiler, and cause impact on the existing pulverizing, combustion, and dust removal systems. The blending ratio is difficult to increase significantly, and the emission reduction potential is limited.

[0003] On the other hand, the large-scale access of renewable energy (wind, light) has intensified the volatility of the power grid, and higher requirements have been put forward for the deep peak shaving capacity and rapid response capacity of coal-fired units. Traditional coal-fired units are limited by their inherent characteristics such as large thermal inertia and slow variable load rate, making it difficult to meet the growing demand for flexibility. Energy storage technology is considered as a key means to solve power grid fluctuations and improve system flexibility. Among many energy storage technologies, metal fuel energy storage technology (aluminum fuel) using aluminum as an energy carrier has great potential due to its extremely high theoretical volume / mass energy density (much higher than lithium batteries), intrinsic safety, easy long-term storage, and long-distance transportation. Aluminum can store electricity through electrolytic water hydrogen production coupled with aluminum smelting, and release energy when needed through aluminum-water / air reaction (main products are aluminum oxide and hydrogen, which can be burned or used in fuel cells). However, the aluminum fuel reaction system (especially efficient and controllable reactor design) and large-scale heat energy utilization integration technology are not mature, and the independent power generation cost is high, which is a bottleneck for its large-scale application.

[0004] Therefore, it is urgent to explore an innovative system integration scheme that can solve the dual problems of low-carbon transformation and flexibility improvement of coal-fired units, and overcome the technical and economic bottlenecks faced by biomass blending combustion and aluminum fuel energy storage.
