Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This invention belongs to the field of low-rank coal drying and carbonization technology, and particularly relates to a coupled system and method for coal heating and carrier gas heat recovery during coal drying. Background Technology
[0002] Low-rank coal, as an important component of the coal resource spectrum, has attracted widespread attention in the energy and chemical industries in recent years due to its huge reserves, relatively favorable occurrence conditions, and relatively low mining costs. Statistics show that global geological resources of low-rank coal amount to approximately 4 trillion tons, accounting for about 40% of the world's total coal resources, demonstrating its strategic position and development potential in the energy structure. In my country, coal resources are abundant in various types, but after long-term large-scale mining, the exploitable space for high-quality coal resources such as bituminous coal and anthracite is becoming increasingly limited, and the pressure of resource sustainability is gradually emerging. In contrast, my country's low-rank coal reserves are considerable, but due to its lower degree of coalification, high moisture content, and generally low calorific value, it still faces many technical bottlenecks in efficient conversion and clean utilization, and large-scale development and utilization are still in the exploratory and demonstration stage.
[0003] Low-rank coal drying is a common pretreatment technology in the utilization of low-rank coal. It is generally applied before coal gasification and coal pyrolysis (external heating and rotary kiln) processes. By reducing the moisture content of raw coal, it reduces the heat load of the main process, thereby increasing production capacity. Currently, the commonly used technology for pulverized coal drying is the indirect heating rotary drum, which uses steam as a heat source to provide heat for pulverized coal drying and introduces carrier gas during the coal rotary drying process to carry away the evaporated water vapor. This process is relatively mature and stable, capable of processing low-rank coal powder of 0-30mm and controlling the moisture content of the coal to below 8% through drying. However, this process has the following problems that restrict its further promotion: 1) The coal drying process uses steam as the only heat source, resulting in large steam consumption and high costs; 2) The carrier gas introduced during the coal drying process carries a large amount of low-grade heat, which needs to be cooled and dehydrated through cold utilities before being reheated and reintroduced into the steam rotary drum. This results in the ineffective recovery and utilization of the carrier gas heat, and further consumption of cold and hot utilities to achieve a closed-loop circulation of the carrier gas system, significantly increasing the process operating costs. Therefore, it is necessary to propose new process technologies based on the existing processes to achieve energy conservation, consumption reduction, and cascade utilization of heat in the coal drying process.
[0004] Chinese invention patent CN103822441A discloses a coal drying method using a low-inert gas circulation system. This process employs a scrubbing tower to wash, cool, and dehumidify the dried exhaust gas after dust removal, before recycling it, thus increasing the safety of the coal drying system. Simultaneously, the method utilizes negative pressure flash evaporation technology to achieve clean water recovery from the dried exhaust gas and resolve the "white dragon" phenomenon in the exhaust gas. However, this process does not achieve heat recovery from the carrier gas, resulting in a still relatively high overall operating cost for the drying process.
[0005] Chinese invention patent CN119819093A discloses a novel carrier gas circulating dehumidification and drying process system. This system includes a carrier gas heater, a dryer, a cyclone dust collector, a bag filter dust collector, a membrane dehumidifier, an adsorption dehumidifier, and a regeneration heater. By combining the membrane dehumidifier and the adsorption dehumidifier, humidity is removed from the circulating carrier gas. The dehumidification process does not require cooling, increasing the energy utilization rate of the circulating carrier gas to over 85%, while reducing exhaust emissions to below 15%, making it more energy-efficient, low-carbon, and environmentally friendly. It can be widely applied in the field of carrier gas circulating drying. However, the membrane separation dehydration process in this method is costly, the stability of its operation needs further verification, and the issue of carrier gas heat recovery remains unresolved. Summary of the Invention
[0006] The purpose of this invention is to provide a coupled system and method for coal heating and carrier gas heat recovery during coal drying, overcoming the shortcomings of the prior art. This system achieves coal preheating and coal drying and dehydration while eliminating a large amount of cold utilities used for carrier gas circulation cooling, maximizing the recovery of medium and low grade waste heat in the wet carrier gas. The recovered heat is used to heat the dehydrated dry carrier gas itself, and the remaining heat generates medium and low temperature hot water, part of which is used to preheat the raw coal, and the remaining hot water is used to heat other units. This helps to reduce the energy consumption of the entire system and improve stability and operating efficiency.
[0007] To achieve the above objectives, the present invention provides the following technical solution: A coupled system for coal heating and carrier gas heat recovery during coal drying includes a coal preheating storage silo, a sealed coal conveying device, a steam rotary drum, a bag filter, and a carrier gas circulating fan.

The wet carrier gas outlet is connected to the bag filter via a wet carrier gas pipeline. The dry carrier gas inlet is connected to a first carrier gas treatment device via a dry carrier gas pipeline. A circulating fan is installed on the dry carrier gas pipeline. The bag filter is connected to the first carrier gas treatment device via a clean and wet carrier gas pipeline. The first carrier gas treatment device and a second carrier gas treatment device are connected via a primary carrier gas pipeline and a secondary carrier gas pipeline, respectively. A carrier gas cooling regulator is installed on the secondary carrier gas pipeline. A dust content detection instrument is installed on the clean and wet carrier gas pipeline. The first carrier gas treatment device is a hot air generator, and the second carrier gas treatment device is a hot water generator.
[0008] Furthermore, the first carrier gas treatment device includes a first low-pressure working fluid pipeline, a first high-pressure working fluid pipeline, a first condenser, a first evaporator, and a first compressor. A first condenser is provided between the inlet of the first low-pressure working fluid pipeline and the outlet of the first high-pressure working fluid pipeline, and a first evaporator is provided between the outlet of the first low-pressure working fluid pipeline and the inlet of the first high-pressure working fluid pipeline.

The first low-pressure working fluid pipeline, the first high-pressure working fluid pipeline, the first condenser, and the first evaporator form a closed loop. The first condenser is also connected to a secondary carrier gas pipeline and a dry carrier gas pipeline, and the first evaporator is also connected to a clean and wet carrier gas pipeline, a primary carrier gas pipeline, and a first condensate pipeline.
[0009] Furthermore, the second carrier gas treatment device includes a second low-pressure working fluid pipeline, a second high-pressure working fluid pipeline, a second condenser, a second evaporator, and a second compressor. A second condenser is installed between the inlet of the second low-pressure working fluid pipeline and the outlet of the second high-pressure working fluid pipeline. A second evaporator is installed between the outlet of the second low-pressure working fluid pipeline and the inlet of the second high-pressure working fluid pipeline. A second pressure reducing valve is installed on the second low-pressure working fluid pipeline, and a second compressor is installed on the second high-pressure working fluid pipeline. The second low-pressure working fluid pipeline, the second high-pressure working fluid pipeline, the second condenser, and the second evaporator form a closed loop. The second condenser is also connected to a hot water supply pipeline and a heated hot water pipeline, respectively. The second evaporator is also connected to a primary carrier gas pipeline, a secondary carrier gas pipeline, and a second condensate water pipeline, respectively.
[0010] Furthermore, the carrier gas cooling regulator is a tubular heat exchanger.
[0011] Furthermore, the first condensate pipe and the second condensate pipe are connected together, and then connected to the main condensate pipe for water purification and treatment system.
[0012] Furthermore, the coal preheating storage silo is equipped with a hot water heat exchange coil, which is connected to a hot water heating pipeline.
[0013] Furthermore, the outer surfaces of all pipes in the system are insulated.
[0014] Furthermore, the first compressor and the second compressor are gear pumps or screw pumps; the bag filter is an electrostatic bag filter; and the sealed coal conveying device is a screw conveyor.
[0015] Furthermore, the temperature inside the coal preheating storage silo is raised from 0-30℃ and 5%-40% moisture content to 60-95℃. After passing through a sealed coal conveying device, it enters a steam rotary drum. Inside the drum, it indirectly exchanges heat with low-pressure steam. The evaporated water vapor is carried away by dry carrier gas at 90-130℃ through the wet carrier gas pipeline. The moisture content of the dried coal is reduced to 5%-15% before being discharged. The wet carrier gas in the pipeline, with a temperature of 70-95℃ and a moisture content of 10%-30%, enters a bag filter dust collector to remove some of the dust it carries, becoming clean wet carrier gas. The clean wet carrier gas then sequentially enters the first carrier gas treatment device and the second carrier gas treatment device through the clean wet carrier gas pipeline. The device realizes the process of dehydration and cooling, and heating and preheating; the temperature of the carrier gas in the clean and wet carrier gas pipeline is 80~95℃, the temperature in the first-stage carrier gas pipeline of the first carrier gas treatment device is 55~65℃, the temperature in the first condensate pipeline is 55℃~65℃, the temperature in the second-stage carrier gas pipeline is 35~45℃, the temperature in the dry carrier gas pipeline is 90~130℃, and the water content is 0%~15%; the temperature in the second condensate pipeline of the first carrier gas treatment device is 35℃~45℃, the temperature in the hot water inlet pipeline is 65~75℃, and the temperature in the heated hot water pipeline is 90~110℃; the temperature of the hot water return water discharged from the coal preheating storage silo is 65~75℃.
[0016] Furthermore, the carrier gas is any one of nitrogen, carbon dioxide, or air, or a mixture of any two or three gases.
[0017] Compared with the prior art, the beneficial effects of the present invention are: 1) While achieving coal preheating and coal drying and dehydration, this system eliminates a large number of cold utility projects used for carrier gas circulation cooling, recovers the medium and low grade waste heat in the wet carrier gas to the maximum extent, and uses the recovered heat to heat the dry carrier gas itself after dehydration. The remaining heat generates medium and low temperature hot water, part of which is used to preheat the raw coal, and the remaining hot water is used to heat other units, thereby reducing the energy consumption of the entire system and improving the stability and operating efficiency of the system. 2) The dry carrier gas in the system, with a temperature of 90~130℃, enters the steam rotary drum and directly contacts the coal seam to remove the moisture from the coal drying process. The temperature of the dried wet carrier gas is 70~95℃ and the moisture content is 10%~30%. After entering the bag filter, the wet carrier gas removes some of the dust it carries. After dust removal, the carrier gas then enters the first carrier gas treatment device and the second carrier gas treatment device in sequence to realize the cycle process of dehydration and cooling and heating and preheating.
