Based on the embodiments of the present utility model, all other embodiments obtained by those of ordinary skill in the art without creative efforts shall fall within the protection scope of the present utility model.
[0023] Please refer to Figures 1-3, the present utility model provides a technical solution: a semi-underground low-pressure gas storage system, which includes an outer membrane 1. An inner membrane 2 is arranged at the inner end of the outer membrane 1. An access passage 6 is arranged outside the outer membrane 1 and the inner membrane 2. A foundation part 7 is arranged below the outer membrane 1. The foundation part 7 includes a semi-underground gas storage accumulation layer 701 piled and cast around the foundation part 7. The foundation part 7 also includes a gas storage space 702 opened in the middle of the foundation part 7, and the bottom of the gas storage space 702 is designed as a plane;
[0024] In the middle of the foundation part 7 and located on the inner wall of the gas storage space 702, a gas storage bottom foundation 8 is cast. The gas storage bottom foundation 8 includes a gas storage ground inner gas storage beam foundation 802 cast above the semi-underground gas storage accumulation layer 701.
[0025] The gas storage space is composed of a space part above the ground and an underground space part. According to the span and length of the inner membrane 2, the gas storage space 702 is increased downward, which can extend the underground space below the ground, increase the relative height of the gas storage, and cast a gas storage bottom foundation 8 around the gas storage space 702 to fix and seal the outer membrane, inner membrane and bottom membrane, which can ensure the stability and safety of the underground gas storage space. According to the span and length of the inner membrane 2, the underground space is extended below the ground. By increasing the relative height of the gas storage 1, the capacity of the gas storage 1 is increased. Under the same gas storage capacity requirement, the floor area of the gas storage 1 can be greatly reduced, the land restriction can be reduced, and the land use cost can be reduced; Piling up the semi-underground gas storage accumulation layer 701 on the gas storage bottom foundation 8 can increase the height of the surrounding ground of the gas storage, form a surrounding layer of the semi-underground gas storage, reduce the underground space excavation work volume, further expand the capacity of the underground gas storage space, and reduce the transportation and unloading cost of earth and stone; At the same time, the inner membrane 2 is set as a spherical shape. After inflation, it is supported by the slightly positive pressure of the gas to form an arc shape. A protective layer space is formed between the inner and outer membranes, which is convenient for operation and maintenance; On the other hand, the spherical structure maximizes the internal space and can effectively store more gas. The structure of the inner membrane 2 is not limited to a hemispherical shape, and can also be an ellipsoidal shape, a polyhedral shape or other shapes in actual use.
[0026] Furthermore, a bottom membrane 3 is laid inside the gas storage space 702.

The gas charging and discharging pipeline valve 401 is remotely opened and closed according to the control of the energy storage system. CO2 is transported to the compressor unit through the gas charging and discharging pipeline system 4. In the expansion energy release stage, the CO2 output from the end of the expander is discharged into the gas storage reservoir through the gas charging and discharging pipeline system 4 to achieve the purpose of real-time feedback on the situation in the gas storage reservoir.

They are connected to the fixed embedded parts 1001 through the sealing and fixing parts 10 and fixed on the outside of the outer film 1, so that the outer film 1 can be protected by the steel cable net 9, thereby extending the service life of the outer film 1.
[0030] Furthermore, sealing and fixing components 11 are fixedly installed around the edges of the inner film 2. The sealing and fixing components 11 include sealing washers 1101 that are overlapped and connected up and down with the concrete structure 801 around the gas storage reservoir, which can increase the connection tightness, keep the force evenly distributed, and increase the firmness and reliability.
