Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] The utility model belongs to the technical field of flue gas water extraction systems, and in particular relates to a wet flue gas indirect condensation water extraction heat exchanger. Background Art
[0002] Fossil energy is the main energy source in my country, and coal-fired power plants using coal as raw materials still account for the majority of my country's electricity. Flue gas produced by coal combustion contains a large amount of water and low-grade heat after wet desulfurization. Recovering water from the flue gas after desulfurization is an important water-saving and energy-saving measure.
[0003] At present, the technologies for recovering water from flue gas mainly include indirect condensation method by heat exchanger, direct condensation method, membrane method, absorption method and other technical routes. Among them, only the direct condensation tower + indirect dry air cooling tower method has a few industrial application results. The direct condensation of the direct condensation tower + indirect dry air cooling tower method uses spray towers, packing towers, etc. as mass transfer and heat transfer equipment. The saturated flue gas is in direct contact with low-temperature circulating water, and condenses after heat exchange and cooling with the circulating water to achieve the purpose of collecting water. The cold source of low-temperature circulating water uses a dry air cooling tower. Practice has proved that the water-saving effect of the flue gas water extraction system is significant, which greatly reduces the amount of water resources consumed by the unit for power generation.
[0004] Although the direct condensation tower + indirect dry air cooling tower method has a significant water-saving effect, the low-temperature circulating water has been circulating in the system, and the necessary cleaning pH adjustment system must be equipped. Therefore, the process composition of the flue gas water extraction system consists of four parts: flue gas system, cooling device, cooling circulation system, cold source system, and pH adjustment system, and the system process is long. At the same time, due to the use of circulating water as an intermediate heat transfer medium, the heat needs to be exchanged twice through the direct condensation tower and the indirect dry air cooling tower before it can be discharged from the dry air cooling tower, so that the heat exchange temperature difference between the indirect dry air cooling tower and the air is small, and the equipment heat exchange area is large, resulting in high power consumption per ton of water in the entire project and large investment per ton of water during the operation cycle. Existing data show that the investment in a 660MW unit in the north with a flue gas water collection capacity of 90t / h is 50.56 million yuan. Based on the full life cycle of 20 years, the unit investment cost of recovered water is 6.12 yuan / t, and the unit operating cost of recovered water is 4.30 to 5.64 yuan / t. Utility Model Content

[0006] In order to achieve the above purpose, the utility model adopts the following technical solutions:
[0007] A wet flue gas indirect condensation water extraction heat exchanger includes a heat exchange housing, on which there are cooperatively arranged a perforated plate, heat exchange elements, an axial flow fan, and a drain trough. The perforated plate is connected to both ends of the heat exchange housing for inlet and outlet of flue gas, the axial flow fan is connected to the top of the heat exchange housing, and the axial flow fan is arranged between the perforated plates on both sides;
[0008] The heat exchange element includes a group of heat exchange tubes, and a spiral guide vane is connected inside each heat exchange tube, and a group of fins are connected to the outside of the heat exchange tubes.
[0009] Further, the heat exchange tubes are inclined in the heat exchange housing, and the included angle between its axis and the horizontal direction is 2 to 20°.
[0010] Further, the guide vane is arranged in a spiral structure along the axis of the heat exchange tube.
[0011] Further, the fins are vertically connected to the outer wall of the heat exchange tube, and adjacent fins are parallel to each other.
[0012] Further, the drain trough is arranged facing the lowest point of the heat exchange tube, so as to collect the condensed water and discharge it from the drain trough.
[0013] In the technical solution of the present utility model, by collecting the moisture in the wet flue gas and using the ambient cold air to condense the water vapor in the saturated wet flue gas, the water-saving effect is achieved. At the same time, after the equipment of the present utility model is used, it is expected that the investment cost of the recovered water per unit of operation in 20 years is 1.47 yuan / t, and the power consumption for the operation of the recovered water per unit is 7.2 KWh / t, and the cost reduction and energy-saving effect is remarkable.
