As the country has vigorously advocated or promoted energy-saving and emission-reduction technologies in recent years, the cement industry, as my country's main high-energy consumption and high-emission industry, is undoubtedly the focus and difficulty of energy conservation and emission reduction in the industrial field. Its energy-saving and emission-reduction effects play a vital role in achieving my country's energy consumption targets and industrial sustainable development. Therefore, further increasing energy conservation and emission reduction efforts and developing a low-carbon recyclable economy has become an arduous and urgent task facing the cement industry.

[0003] In cement clinker production, coal consumption basically accounts for more than half of the production cost.

[0055] Advantages of the utility model:

[0056] 1. Solved the comprehensive benefits of power consumption of oxygen production system and oxygen-enriched combustion and energy saving;

[0057] 2. By pre-treating the gas source, the oxygen production efficiency of the membrane oxygen generation is kept stable at 95% without decreasing, and the service life of the membrane is guaranteed to be greater than or equal to 8 to 10 years;

[0062] When the utility model is implemented:

[0063] Solution 1: According to the O2 content and flow rate required for oxygen-enriched combustion in the factory, calculate and configure the specifications of the oxygen generator (the positive pressure membrane oxygen generator is modularly manufactured, and the oxygen production demand can be easily achieved by increasing or decreasing the number of membrane groups). At the same time, according to the compressed air volume of the original air compressor station in the factory, select and add a new air compressor unit (including cold dryer and precision filter) with a flow rate greater than or equal to the oxygen flow rate of the oxygen generator to supplement the compressed air of the oxygen-enriched part extracted after oxygen production, and use the compressed air produced by the original air compressor and the new air compressor as the air source. After being processed by a cold dryer and two three-stage precision filtration processes, the compressed air is heated to 30-45°C and enters the membrane oxygen production equipment, which can produce 20-50kpa oxygen-enriched gas with an oxygen content of 37% and nitrogen-enriched gas with a N2 concentration of more than 90% and a pressure 0.05MPa lower than the source gas (still meeting the factory's compressed air use requirements), and returns to the original compressed air pipeline system for the factory to use as compressed air (can be used for bag dust collection backwash air source, instrument gas, coal powder warehouse protection gas, etc.). The oxygen-enriched gas with an O2 content of 37% is mixed with the atmosphere through the primary fan and the standby fan air inlet of the kiln (cement kiln head), and the oxygen-enriched gas with an O2 content of about 30% is output for the kiln head burner of the kiln (cement kiln head) to support combustion, achieving the energy-saving requirements of oxygen-enriched combustion.

[0064] Solution 2: When the factory compressed air does not meet the oxygen production requirements (the factory has a demand for compressed air, but the compressed air output by the original air compressor station is less than 0.55MPa pressure):

[0065] According to the O2 content and flow rate required for oxygen-enriched combustion in the factory, the specifications of the oxygen generator (the positive pressure membrane oxygen generator is modularized and can easily meet the oxygen production requirements by increasing or decreasing the number of membrane groups) and the model and specifications of the compressed air compressor unit required for oxygen production are calculated and configured. The compressed air produced by the newly added air compressor is used as the gas source. After being processed by a cold dryer and two three-level precision filtration processes, the compressed air is heated to 30-45°C and enters the membrane oxygen production equipment. It can produce 20-50kpa oxygen-enriched gas with an oxygen content of 37% and nitrogen-enriched gas with a N2 concentration of more than 90% and a pressure 0.05MPa lower than the source gas (meeting the factory's compressed air usage requirements), and then returns to the original compressed air pipeline system for the factory to use as compressed air (can be used for bag dust collection back-blowing air source, instrument gas, coal powder bunker protection gas, etc.). Under the premise of ensuring production, the factory will make choices about the start and stop of the original air compressor system unit based on the compressed air usage. The oxygen-rich gas containing 37% O2 is mixed with the atmosphere through the primary fan and the backup fan air inlet of the kiln (cement kiln head), and the oxygen-rich gas containing about 30% O2 is output for the kiln head burner of the kiln (cement kiln head) to assist combustion, thereby achieving the energy-saving requirements of oxygen-rich combustion.

[0066] The utility model realizes the circulation of compressed air, oxygen-enriched air and nitrogen-enriched air through the connection of pipelines.

[0067] The above are only specific implementations of the utility model, but the protection scope of the utility model is not limited thereto. Any changes or substitutions that are not conceived through creative work should be included in the protection scope of the utility model. Therefore, the protection scope of the utility model should be based on the protection scope defined in the claims.
