DETAILED DESCRIPTION

[0021] The following is combined with Figure 1-4 , further illustrating the specific implementation of the utility model of a steam production device using the reaction heat generated by the dehydrogenation of alkane liquid, which overcomes the problem in the prior art that when hydrocarbons are reduced, some situations in the heat released are greater than the input power heat. However, there is no effective way to recycle the heat energy generated by the reaction, resulting in the defect of wasting energy. The device can recycle the heat energy generated by the reduction reaction or other exothermic reactions, and then reuse the recovered reaction waste heat energy and convert it into other energy sources, thereby achieving energy saving and consumption reduction and reducing carbon emissions while obtaining additional chemical production by-products. The utility model of a steam production device using the reaction heat generated by the dehydrogenation of alkane liquid is not limited to the description of the following embodiments. Example

[0022] This embodiment provides a steam production device using the reaction heat generated by dehydrogenation of alkane liquid. Figure 1 As shown, before the device is started, liquid alkane C6H 12 , liquid alkane C6H 12 The volume capacity in the gas-liquid separation tank is 30%, H2S gas is injected into the gas tank 12, and the water pump 14 inputs water into the steam generator 8. The thermal oil reflux tank 2 and the thermal oil pump 1 are turned on to circulate the thermal oil to the reflux tank 2. The thermal oil heater 3 is turned on to heat the thermal oil until the thermal oil temperature rises to 320°C, and then the thermal oil heater 3 is turned off to keep the thermal oil pump 1 running, so that the thermal oil can continue to circulate in the device.

[0023] Open the raw material metering pump 4 to make the liquid alkane C6H 12The obtained C6H 12 The gasified gas flow enters the inlet of the cracker 6 from the outlet of the heater 5, C6H 12 It is cracked into C6H6 and 6H atomic hydrogen. The cracked gas continues to enter the inlet of the heat exchanger 7 from the outlet of the cracker 6. The C6H6 and 6H atomic hydrogen gases and the metal surface inside the heat exchanger, the atomic hydrogen combines into molecular hydrogen and releases a large amount of heat. Part of the heat is used to replenish the power heat when starting the machine through the heat transfer oil heat exchange effect, and the other part of the heat enters the inlet of the steam generator 8 from the outlet of the heat exchanger 7. The heat converts the water in the steam generator 8 into steam. In the steam generator, the C6H6 and 2H2 gas flows from the outlet of the heat exchanger 7 with the heat and reacts with the H2S gas delivered from the compressor 9 in the steam generator 8. Specifically, C6H6+ 3H2+ H2S is reduced to C6H 12 , H2S enters cooler 10 through the outlet of steam generator 8 and is cooled to become C6H 12 + H2S gas-liquid. H2S enters the gas tank 12 through the recooler 11 for storage and is used for further reaction.

[0024] Liquid alkane C6H 12 To complete the closed-loop cycle, only water needs to be added into the device to continuously produce steam with low energy consumption.

[0025] According to experimental calculations, by using C6H 12 After heating to above 350℃ and inputting 8731KJ of power heat energy, C6H 12 Decomposed into C6H6 + 3H2, the total heat release energy is greater than 58206KJ. The heat release energy of the entire reaction process is much greater than the input energy, and the input power heat is only 15% of the heat release. Therefore, after the cycle reaction, C6H 12 No external power or heat is required, and steam can be produced by inputting water. The power consumption for producing 1.0 ton of steam according to the method provided by the present invention is only 36 kWh, which has obvious energy-saving and emission-reduction effects, is particularly suitable for the current low-carbon and environmentally friendly production concept, and has good economic and environmental value.

A gas filtering mechanism that can assist in filtering the gas inside the gas tank 12 is arranged inside the gas tank 12. Such a structural arrangement enables the gas tank 12 to filter the gas when storing the gas and circulating the gas supply, thereby ensuring the cleanliness of the gas, so that the entire device generates less impurities during the reaction.

[0030] The gas filtering mechanism includes a filter plate 154, which is located between the two connecting air pipes 123 and divides the interior of the gas tank 12 into two upper and lower areas to facilitate gas filtering. Preferably, the filter plate 154 can also be installed at an angle to increase gas filtering efficiency.

[0031] A filter plate cleaning mechanism is provided inside the gas tank 12 above the filter plate 154, which is used to regularly clean the filter plate 154 to ensure that the filter plate 154 will not be blocked, thereby ensuring the filtering effect of the gas.

[0032] The filter plate cleaning mechanism includes a mounting shaft 151 and an air distribution pipe 152, wherein the mounting shaft 151 is rotatably mounted at the upper center of the filter plate 154, the air distribution pipe 152 is fixedly mounted on the mounting shaft 151, and the air distribution pipe 152 is mounted horizontally and perpendicular to the axial direction of the mounting shaft 151, a number of back-blowing air nozzles 153 are equidistantly mounted below the air distribution pipe 152, an air supply pipe 156 is connected above the air distribution pipe 152, the air supply pipe 156 is connected to the compressor 9, a valve that can be timed to open and close is installed on the connecting pipeline, a motor 155 is installed below the filter plate 154, and the output shaft of the motor 155 is drivingly connected to the mounting shaft 151.

[0033] As the number of filter holes on the surface of the filter plate 154 gradually increases from the inside to the outside, the diameter of the air holes of the back-blowing air nozzle 153 gradually increases from the inside to the outside along the radius of the filter plate 154. Such a structure can gradually increase the cleaning wind force of the filter plate 154 from the center to the edge, thereby ensuring that the back-blowing cleaning of the surface of the filter plate 154 is more thorough.

[0034] By adopting the above technical solution:

[0035] When the motor 155 is running, it can drive the gas distribution pipe 152 to rotate through the installation shaft 151, and the gas supply pipe 156 can provide high-pressure gas into the device to achieve the effect of back-blowing and cleaning the filter plate 154 through the back-blowing air nozzle 153.
