[0029] This invention provides a method for controlling and monitoring the dust removal in a coke oven shed. By integrating a vehicle interlocking system, a coke oven production system, and a coke oven shed dust removal control system, the coke oven shed dust removal system coordinates with the coke oven vehicles and the coke oven production system to achieve automatic operation of the coke oven shed dust removal system.
[0030] Example 1 The dust removal system in the coke oven shed is divided into preset areas, each containing a preset number of dust removal branch pipes. It collects real-time data on coke oven output and coal charging plans, as well as the target oven number of the coke oven vehicles. Based on these data, it controls the coke oven vehicles to travel to the preset target coke oven. It also collects the location information of the coke oven vehicles and controls the opening and closing of the dust removal branch pipes in the corresponding areas. Simultaneously, it monitors the concentration of toxic and harmful gases inside the shed in real-time and, based on preset thresholds, determines whether to trigger a safety alarm.
[0031] In this embodiment, the location information of the coke oven vehicle includes: Interlocking signals, real-time position signals, oven door opening and closing signals, and high and low speed signals for coke oven vehicles.
[0032] In this embodiment, the dust removal system of the coke oven shed is divided into preset areas, and a preset number of sensors are deployed in each area; the weighted average concentration of multiple sensor data in the target area is calculated as the concentration of toxic and harmful gases in the target area.
[0033] Calculate the weighted average concentration of sensor data within the target area: Calculate the filtered data for a single sensor:

[0041] in, This indicates a dynamic risk index. Indicates toxicity factor, Indicates the diffusion factor. This indicates the maximum concentration value detected by the sensor within the target area within a preset period. This indicates the number of times the concentration detected by the sensor in the target area exceeds the safe concentration threshold within a preset period.
[0042] Based on the dynamic risk index, a tiered alarm system is implemented, and corresponding ventilation measures are taken: If R < 1.5, then record the event; When 2.5 > R ≥ 1.5, the exhaust ventilation in the target area is activated; When R≥2.5, global exhaust ventilation is activated.
[0043] Example 2 Combination Figure 3 The dust control and safety management system for a coke oven shed shown includes: 1. The main control CPU unit receives signals from the vehicle-mounted control unit, production acquisition unit, dust removal control unit, toxic and harmful gas detection unit, and greenhouse emission control unit via a wireless communication unit. After calculation as described in Example 1, the signals are fed back to each unit. Preferably, a Siemens S7-1513 PLC controller is used to achieve a distributed structure and user-friendly HMI interface operation. Installed in the low-voltage power distribution room of the coke oven greenhouse dust removal system, it controls the dust collector, dust removal branch pipe valves within the greenhouse, and greenhouse ventilation valves. It has a standard Modbus-RTU protocol with an RS485 interface and can communicate with other units in the system via the Profinet communication protocol or other open industrial communication protocols.
[0044] 2. The on-board control unit collects vehicle interlock signals, real-time position signals, oven door opening / closing signals, and high / low speed signals, while also receiving dust collector fan status signals from the main control CPU unit. Preferably, a Siemens S7-1211C PLC controller is used, installed in the coke oven vehicle's power distribution room or driver's cab, and communicates with the coke oven vehicle's PLC controller via the Profinet communication protocol or the Siemens S7 protocol.
[0045] 3. Production data acquisition unit: This unit collects coke oven output and coal charging plans, as well as the target oven number of the coke oven vehicles, and sends the data to the main control CPU unit. Preferably, a Siemens S7-1211C PLC controller is used, installed in the central control room, and communicates with the coke oven production system via the Profinet communication protocol or the Siemens S7 protocol.
[0046] 4. Dust removal control unit, which receives the dust removal fan start or stop signal sent by the main control CPU unit.
[0047] 5. Greenhouse Ventilation Control Unit: Receives signals from the main control CPU unit indicating whether the exhaust valves are open or closed. Preferably, a Siemens S7-1211C PLC controller is used, installed inside the coke oven greenhouse, primarily for controlling the emergency exhaust valves at the top of the greenhouse.
[0048] 6. Toxic and Harmful Gas Detection Unit: The unit uses the principle of electrochemical reaction to collect toxic and harmful gases. The gases are then connected to the main control CPU unit via an analog signal of 4-20mA. The main control CPU unit uses the sensor data filtering, multi-sensor joint alarm processing, and dynamic risk level assessment to direct the greenhouse emission control unit to complete the alarm or emission.
[0049] 7. Wireless Communication Unit: The system employs an industrial-grade XT-RS01 wireless data acquisition terminal. The wireless terminal is equipped with a standard Modbus-RTU protocol using an RS485 interface, operating at a frequency range of 410~510MHz, with 8 adjustable air speeds (1.2, 2.4, 4.8, 9.6, 19.2, 38.4, 50.70kbps), a transmission distance ≤3km, and a communication latency of 2ms / km / 10bit. The wireless communication system uses a 1 master station + 8 slave stations configuration. The master station is installed in the low-voltage power distribution room of the coke oven shed, communicating with the main control CPU unit via the Modbus-RTU protocol. The 8 slave stations are installed on the coke pusher, coal charging car, coke quencher, and flue gas reversing car of the coke oven vehicles, communicating with each other via the Modbus-RTU protocol. The wireless communication system primarily serves as the data communication link between the main control CPU unit and the vehicle control units, ensuring stable data transmission between them.
[0050] Example 3 Each system unit completes its power-on self-test, and all units maintain good communication and normal data transmission. The dust collectors in the greenhouse dust removal system are running. The system obtains the coke oven production plan furnace number by reading data from the production acquisition unit. After the coke oven machinery (coke pusher, coke quencher, and backdraft car) are in position, the system obtains the working furnace number information of the coke oven machinery and the coke oven door opening signal through the vehicle-mounted control unit. The main control CPU unit controls the opening of the dust removal branch valve corresponding to the furnace number currently being pushed and charged inside the greenhouse. After the coke pushing and coal charging of this furnace number is completed, the system reads the coke oven machinery position information and furnace door status to determine that the coal charging and coke pushing of this furnace number has ended. The main control CPU unit controls the closing of the dust removal branch valve corresponding to the furnace number currently being pushed and charged inside the greenhouse and opens the greenhouse ventilation valve in this area until the next coal charging and coke pushing begins.
[0051] During the mechanical coke pushing and coal charging process in the coke oven, the toxic and harmful gas detection unit monitors the content of toxic and harmful gases accumulated inside the greenhouse in real time through sensor data filtering, multi-sensor joint alarm processing, and dynamic risk level assessment technology. When the dynamic risk assessment grading threshold R < 1.5, the system only records events; when the dynamic risk assessment grading threshold 2.5 > R ≥ 1.5, the greenhouse emission control unit controls the opening of the exhaust valves in this area, and the main control CPU unit controls the opening of the dust removal branch pipe valves and the greenhouse ventilation valves simultaneously, while generating alarm information; when the dynamic risk assessment grading threshold R ≥ 2.5, it indicates that the toxic and harmful gases accumulated in the system have reached the explosion hazard value. The greenhouse emission control unit controls the opening of all exhaust valves in the greenhouse, and the main control CPU unit controls the opening of all dust removal branch pipe valves and the greenhouse ventilation valves simultaneously, rapidly releasing the toxic and harmful gases and exchanging the air in the greenhouse in a very short time, while generating alarm information.
[0052] The system monitors the communication status, operating status, and monitoring parameters of each unit in real time. When a fault occurs or an alarm value is reached, it will record and save the information in a timely manner, generate alarm information of the corresponding level, and issue pop-up alarms or audible and visual alarms according to the alarm level.
[0053] This method enables automated coke pushing in coke oven sheds and real-time monitoring of toxic and harmful gases inside the sheds, ensuring safe production in coke oven sheds.
[0054] Finally, it should be noted that the above embodiments are only used to illustrate the technical solutions of the present invention, and not to limit them; although the present invention has been described in detail with reference to the foregoing embodiments, those skilled in the art should understand that modifications can still be made to the technical solutions described in the foregoing embodiments, or equivalent substitutions can be made to some or all of the technical features; and these modifications or substitutions do not cause the essence of the corresponding technical solutions to deviate from the scope of the technical solutions of the embodiments of the present invention.
