Description

Technical Field

[0001] This application relates to the field of energy conservation and environmental protection, specifically to a multi-point equal flow sampling device for a flue gas denitrification system. Background Technology

[0002] Nitrogen oxides (NOx) emitted by coal-fired power units are among the major air pollutants, directly contributing to acid rain and causing soil and water acidification, severely damaging the ecological environment. Selective catalytic reduction (SCR) is the most widely used NOx removal method in coal-fired power plants. SCR uses NH3 as a reducing agent, reducing NOx in flue gas to N2 under the action of a catalyst.

[0003] With the increasing intensity of deep peak shaving by coal-fired power units and the increasingly stringent environmental protection standards, the requirements for precise control of flue gas denitrification systems are also gradually increasing. The accuracy of NOx measurement in the denitrification system is crucial for the precise control of flue gas denitrification.

[0004] The denitrification system suffers from several drawbacks, including a large cross-sectional area of ​​the SCR reactor flue, fluctuations and uneven distribution of nitrogen oxide (NOx) concentrations, resulting in poor data representativeness from single-point extraction sampling and single-point in-situ measurements. Multi-point in-situ measurements are costly, complex, and difficult to maintain. Furthermore, traditional multi-point mixed sampling methods for NOx measurement are susceptible to the effects of pipe resistance and blockages, making it difficult to achieve uniform sampling and leading to significant differences in flue gas extraction rates at different locations, resulting in large deviations between measured and actual NOx values. This patent proposes a multi-point isoflow sampling device for flue gas denitrification systems to achieve uniform sampling of the denitrification flue cross-section, ensuring the uniformity of measurement data. Summary of the Invention

[0008] The sampling tubes are horizontally inserted into the denitrification flue. The sampling tubes are evenly spaced apart from each other and are all fixed inside the denitrification flue by guide brackets. Multiple air inlet pipes are evenly spaced at the bottom of each sampling tube.

The gas analysis chamber is connected to the inlet of the sampling pump. The outlet of the sampling pump is connected to the exhaust pipe. The exhaust pipe is then connected to the denitrification flue. The connection point between the exhaust pipe and the denitrification flue is located below the sampling tube.

The first air inlet pipe is located near the front end of the sampling tube, and the nth air inlet pipe is located near the end of the sampling tube. The diameter of the sampling tube at the center of the nth air inlet pipe is [missing information - likely a percentage] of the air inlet pipe diameter. times.

[0011] Furthermore, the intake pipe is a round or square pipe, and the opening of the intake pipe is vertically downward.

[0012] Furthermore, several semi-circular steel pipes are installed inside the denitrification flue. The number of semi-circular steel pipes is the same as the number of sampling tubes. A semi-circular steel pipe is installed directly above the windward side of each sampling tube, with the arc-shaped convex surface of the semi-circular steel pipe facing upward.

[0013] Furthermore, the diameter D of the semicircular steel pipe is the same as the diameter of the end of the sampling tube, and the distance between the center line of the semicircular steel pipe and the center line of the sampling tube is 1.5D to 2.5D.

[0014] Furthermore, the manifold is a tapered circular tube, with all sampling tubes located on the same horizontal plane and their ends extending to the outside of the denitrification flue and connecting to the side wall of the manifold;

[0015] Along the direction from the front end of the manifold to its end, the diameter of the manifold gradually increases; at the end of the manifold, 2 to 5 semi-circular mixing baffles are staggered on both sides of the internal centerline, which promote the uniform mixing of the sampled gas under the turbulence effect of the mixing baffles.

[0016] Furthermore, k sampling tubes are connected to the side of the manifold, where k is an integer ≥ 3. The first sampling tube is located near the front end of the manifold, and the kth sampling tube is located near the end of the manifold. The diameter of the manifold at the interface of the kth sampling tube is the same as the diameter at the interface of the first sampling tube. times;

[0017] The mixing baffle is inclined along the direction of flue gas flow inside the manifold, and the angle between the mixing baffle and the inner wall of the manifold is 60-75°.

[0018] Furthermore, a compressed air backflush port with a first isolation valve is provided at the top of the end of the manifold to prevent dust accumulation and blockage in the sampling tube and the manifold; the end of the manifold is connected to the gas analysis chamber through an arc-shaped bend and a manifold isolation valve, which is used for isolation during compressed air backflush.

[0020] Furthermore, the analysis chamber is equipped with an in-situ flue gas measurement and analysis instrument or a CEMS sampling port for flue gas composition analysis; the sampling pump is a volumetric vacuum pump.

[0021] Compared with the prior art, the beneficial effects achieved by this application are:

[0022] This application inserts several sampling tubes horizontally into the denitrification flue. All sampling tubes are located on the same horizontal plane and perpendicular to the flue gas flow direction. The representativeness of pollutant measurement data is improved by arranging the sampling points. The sampling tubes and manifolds are made into conical circular tubes. By changing the diameter of the sampling tubes and manifolds, the flow velocity inside the tubes is maintained and the dynamic pressure is kept constant, thereby eliminating static pressure changes and realizing multi-point uniform sampling with equal flow rates. After sampling, the gas passes through a mixing baffle to achieve uniform mixing of the flue gas and improve the accuracy of flue gas sampling measurement. Attached Figure Description

Detailed Implementation

[0027] The present invention will be further described below with reference to specific embodiments, but the scope of protection of the present invention is not limited thereto.

[0028] Example: Comparison Figures 1-3

[0029] A multi-point equal flow sampling device for a flue gas denitrification system includes a denitrification flue, several sampling pipes 1, a manifold 2, a gas analysis chamber 3, a sampling pump 4, and an exhaust pipe 5. The flue gas flow direction in the denitrification flue is from top to bottom.

[0030] Several sampling tubes 1 are horizontally inserted into the denitrification flue. There can be nine sampling tubes 1. The sampling tubes 1 are evenly spaced and fixed inside the denitrification flue by guide brackets. Each sampling tube 1 has four air inlet pipes 6 evenly spaced from front to back at its bottom. All sampling tubes 1 are located on the same horizontal plane. The front end of the sampling tube 1 is sealed, and its rear end extends outside the denitrification flue and connects to the side wall of the manifold 2. The manifold 2 connects to the gas analysis chamber 3, which in turn connects to the inlet of the sampling pump 4. The outlet of the sampling pump 4 connects to the exhaust pipe 5, which in turn connects to the denitrification flue. The connection point between the exhaust pipe 5 and the denitrification flue is located below the sampling tube 1.

[0031] Sampling tube 1 is a conical cylindrical tube, with both its front and rear ends connected to the sidewall of the denitrification flue. The diameter of sampling tube 1 gradually increases from its front end to its rear end. n (n=4) air inlets 6 are installed at the bottom of sampling tube 1. The first air inlet 6 is located near the front end of sampling tube 1, and the nth air inlet 6 is located near the rear end. The diameter of sampling tube 1 at the center of the fourth air inlet 6 is twice the diameter of the air inlet 6. The diameter of the front end of sampling tube 1 is 1.1 times the diameter of the air inlet 6.

[0032] The air inlet pipe 6 is a round or square pipe. The opening direction of the air inlet pipe 6 is vertically downward and follows the flow direction of the flue gas in the denitrification flue. Its advantage is that it can effectively reduce the amount of dust entering the sampling pipe.

[0033] Multiple semi-circular steel pipes 7 are also installed inside the denitrification flue. The number of semi-circular steel pipes 7 is the same as the number of sampling pipes 1. A semi-circular steel pipe 7 is installed directly above the windward side of each sampling pipe 1. The arc-shaped convex surface of the semi-circular steel pipe 7 is set upward, that is, the arc-shaped convex surface of the semi-circular steel pipe 7 is set facing the flue gas inside the denitrification flue.

[0034] The flue gas in the denitrification flue contains a high concentration of particulate matter, which can scour the tube bundle under high flue gas flow rates. If the sampling tube 1 is scourged for a long time, it can easily lead to damage and leakage. In this invention, a semi-circular steel pipe 7 is installed directly above the windward side of the sampling tube 1. The flue gas flowing from top to bottom scours the semi-circular steel pipe 7, thereby extending the service life of the sampling tube 1.

[0035] The diameter D of the semicircular steel pipe 7 is the same as the diameter of the end of the sampling tube 1, and the distance between the center line of the semicircular steel pipe and the center line of the sampling tube is 1.5D to 2.5D.

[0036] The manifold 2 is a conical circular tube, and all sampling tubes 1 are located on the same horizontal plane and their ends extend to the outside of the denitrification flue and connect to the side wall of the manifold 2. Along the direction from the front end of the manifold 2 to its end, the diameter of the manifold 2 gradually increases. Four semi-circular mixing baffles 11 are staggered on both sides of the inner centerline at the end of the manifold 2. Under the turbulence effect of the mixing baffles 11, the sampling gas is uniformly mixed.

[0037] Nine sampling tubes 1 are connected to the side of the manifold 2. The first sampling tube 1 is close to the front end of the manifold 2, and the ninth sampling tube 1 is close to the end of the manifold 2. The diameter of the manifold 2 at the interface of the ninth sampling tube is three times the diameter at the interface of the first sampling tube.

[0038] The mixing baffle 11 is inclined along the flue gas flow direction inside the manifold 2, and the angle between the mixing baffle 11 and the inner wall of the manifold 2 is 60-75°.

[0039] The top of the end of the manifold 2 is equipped with a compressed air backflush port 8 with a first isolation valve 9 to prevent dust accumulation and blockage in the sampling tube 1 and the manifold 2. The end of the manifold 2 is connected to the gas analysis chamber 3 through an arc-shaped bend and a manifold isolation valve 10, which serves as an isolation valve during compressed air backflush. The bottom of the end of the manifold 2 is equipped with a manifold outlet 12 with a drain isolation valve 13.

[0040] The analysis chamber is equipped with an in-situ flue gas measurement and analysis instrument or a CEMS sampling port for flue gas composition analysis; the sampling pump is a positive displacement vacuum pump.

[0041] The contents described in this specification are merely an enumeration of the implementation forms of the inventive concept, and the scope of protection of this invention should not be regarded as limited to the specific forms described in the embodiments.
