Description

Technical Field

[0001] The utility model relates to the technical field of carbon dioxide capture, in particular to a carbon dioxide capture system for recycling waste heat of a heat pump. Background Art

[0002] Carbon dioxide capture is an important technical choice for deep emission reduction in fossil energy industries such as thermal power, steel, cement, and chemical industry. Carbon dioxide capture technology based on chemical absorption is considered to be one of the most promising technical routes for large-scale carbon dioxide capture due to its mature process, high capture efficiency, and good flue gas adaptability. The process flow of traditional chemical absorption carbon dioxide capture is as follows: the carbon-containing flue gas emitted by thermal power plants, smelters, cement plants, chemical plants, etc. enters the bottom of the absorption tower after cooling, and contacts the absorbent sprayed from the top of the tower in reverse in the tower. During the gas-liquid contact process, the absorbent reacts chemically with the carbon dioxide in the flue gas to produce products such as carbamate, carbonate, and bicarbonate. The rich liquid after absorbing carbon dioxide is sent to the lean-rich liquid heat exchanger for heat exchange. The heated carbon dioxide rich liquid enters the desorption tower for carbon dioxide desorption and absorbent regeneration. At the bottom of the desorption tower, the carbon dioxide rich liquid exchanges heat with the steam in the reboiler. The absorbent is heated to a certain temperature for carbon dioxide desorption. The desorbed carbon dioxide is discharged from the top of the tower and compressed to a certain pressure after condensation and gas-liquid separation for subsequent transportation and storage. The lean liquid after desorption of carbon dioxide undergoes heat exchange in the lean-rich liquid heat exchanger, and then is cooled by the lean liquid cooler before entering the top of the absorption tower for the second cycle of carbon dioxide capture.

[0003] However, the traditional chemical CO2 capture has technical bottlenecks such as high energy consumption and high operating costs due to insufficient utilization of waste heat and poor cold / heat energy synergy matching, which hinders the commercialization of this technology. In particular, there is no targeted recovery of high-grade and low-grade waste heat, and the quality of low-grade absorption reaction waste heat and medium-temperature barren liquid waste heat is not sufficiently improved after recovery, and waste heat is not fully utilized, which leads to high energy consumption in the CO2 desorption process and high cooling water consumption of the system.

The first reboiler 171 is configured to heat-exchange the lean liquid drawn from the bottom of the desorption tower 130 with the working fluid after absorbing heat in the corresponding waste heat recovery heat pump to desorb carbon dioxide, and then return to the bottom of the desorption tower 130, and make the working fluid after heat exchange at least partially undergo phase change to liquid working fluid, and output the working fluid after heat exchange.

[0165] In some optional embodiments, the regeneration gas waste heat utilization device 560 and / or the compressed regeneration gas waste heat utilization device 660 may adopt the structure adopted by the aforementioned first waste heat utilization device 160, the third waste heat utilization device 360 ​​and / or the fourth waste heat utilization device 460, which will not be repeated here.

[0166] In some embodiments of the present invention, an absorbent is also provided. The absorbent is a CO2-containing cyclic organic amine, a sterically hindered amine, a soluble metal salt and water. 2 Compound absorbent. 2 The composite absorbent is suitable for a carbon dioxide capture system 10 that recovers waste heat through a heat pump.

[0167] In some embodiments, the total mass proportion of cyclic organic amines, sterically hindered amines and soluble metal salts in the composite absorbent may be 20-60%, for example, 25%, 30%, 35%, 40%, 45%, 50%, 55%, 60%.

[0168] In some preferred embodiments, the total mass proportion of the cyclic organic amine, the sterically hindered amine and the soluble metal salt in the composite absorbent may be 30-45%.

[0169] In some specific embodiments, the CO 2 The composite absorbent comprises: 10-25% of cyclic organic amine, 10-35% of sterically hindered amine, 3-12% of soluble metal salt and the balance of water.

[0170] In some more specific embodiments, the CO 2 The mass proportion of the cyclic organic amine in the composite absorbent can be 10%, 12%, 15%, 18%, 20%, 22%, etc.

[0171] In some more specific embodiments, the CO 2 The mass proportion of the sterically hindered amine in the composite absorbent can be 12%, 15%, 18%, 20%, 22%, 25%, 27%, 30%, 33%, etc.

[0172] In some more specific embodiments, the CO 2 The mass proportion of the soluble metal salt in the composite absorbent can be 3%, 4%, 5%, 6%, 7%, 8%, 9%, 10%, 11%, 12%, etc.

[0173] In some optional embodiments, the cyclic organic amine can be a mixture of one or more of piperazine, N-hydroxyethylpiperazine, 1-(2-hydroxyethyl)-4-aminopiperidine, 4-hydroxy-1-methylpiperidine, 3-aminomethylpyridine, and N-aminoethylpiperazine.

[0174] In some optional embodiments, the sterically hindered amine may be a mixture of one or more of 2-amino-2-methyl-1-propanol, isopropanolamine, sodium aminoisobutyrate, and 2-amino-2-ethyl-1,3-propanediol.

[0175] In some optional embodiments, the soluble metal salt may be a mixture of one or more of zinc sulfate, nickel sulfate, copper sulfate, cobalt sulfate, and manganese sulfate.

[0176] The compound absorbent of cyclic organic amine and sterically hindered amine has high CO 2 Load, low CO 2 The advantages of low reaction heat and desorption energy consumption are due to the fact that cyclic organic amines contain a polyamine structure, and the concentration of amine groups per unit mole molecule is significantly higher than that of monoethanolamine, which increases the CO 2 Absorption capacity; sterically hindered amines accept reactive protons, and their theoretical CO absorption capacity is higher than that of primary ethanolamines. 2 The absorption capacity is doubled. Therefore, the composite absorbent increases the CO per unit mass of solution. 2 absorption, while reducing CO 2 Heat of reaction and thermal energy consumption during solvent regeneration.

[0177] The inventors of this application also studied the effect of introducing metal ions into the organic amine absorbent before and after CO 2 The change in heat of reaction, such as Fig.19 shown.

[0178] Depend on Fig.19It can be seen that on the basis of the composite absorbent of cyclic organic amine and sterically hindered amine, the introduction of metal ions into the composite absorbent further reduces the CO 2 Reaction heat. This is because the metal ions form metal organic amine complexes with the composite absorbent, and the metal complexes are reacted with CO 2 The acid effect forms a chemical reaction heat buffer based on Le Chatelier's dynamic equilibrium. This buffer absorbs CO 2 The heat of reaction released during the process is stored in the dissociation bond energy of the metal complex and in the CO 2 During desorption, the stored energy is released through its complex exothermic reaction for CO 2 Desorption, thereby recovering CO 2 Reaction heat. Taking 12% piperazine / 28% 2-amino-2-methyl-1-propanol / 5% nickel sulfate as an example, the reaction heat is 73kJ / molCO 2 Reduced to 69 kJ / molCO 2 , desorption energy consumption from 2.6GJ / ton CO 2 Reduced to 2.4GJ / ton CO 2 The desorption energy consumption is obtained by adding the reaction heat, sensible heat and latent heat. The sensible heat is obtained by ASPENPlus simulation under the condition of 5K of the lean-rich liquid heat exchanger, and the latent heat is calculated by ASPEN PLUS simulation under the condition of rich liquid split optimization.

[0179] At the same time, the Lewis acid properties of transition metal ions can change the pH of the organic amine system, promote the conversion of carbamate to bicarbonate, and reduce CO 2 While reducing the heat of reaction, the desorption temperature is also reduced. Taking the composite absorbent of 12% piperazine / 28% 2-amino-2-methyl-1-propanol / 5% nickel sulfate as an example, the desorption temperature is reduced from 117°C to 112°C under 2bar conditions. The reduction of desorption temperature helps to reduce the temperature difference between the cold end and the hot end of the heat pump process. Taking R245fa as an example, the COP performance is improved from 2.2 to 2.4, which improves the heat pump efficiency and carbon capture energy utilization efficiency.
