BRIEF DESCRIPTION OF THE DRAWINGS

[0017] Figure 1 It is a schematic diagram of a peak-shaving system for a coal-fired unit in an embodiment of the present utility model. DETAILED DESCRIPTION

[0018] In order to make the technical means, creative features, objectives and effects achieved by the present invention easier to understand, the following embodiments and drawings specifically illustrate the coal-fired unit peak-shaving system combined with the biomass pyrolysis process of the present invention.

[0019] This embodiment provides a coal-fired unit peak-shaving system combined with a biomass pyrolysis process, hereinafter referred to as the coal-fired unit peak-shaving system, which is used to produce pyrolysis gas, biochar and biomethanol from biomass.

[0020] Figure 1 It is a schematic diagram of a peak-shaving system for a coal-fired unit in an embodiment of the present utility model.

[0021] like Figure 1 As shown, the coal-fired unit peak-shaving system 100 includes a pyrolysis reactor 10 , a boiler 20 , a recycling flue 30 , a steam subsystem 40 and a generator 50 .

[0022] The pyrolysis reactor 10 is used to generate pyrolysis gas, biochar and biomethanol from biomass, high-temperature flue gas and high-temperature superheated steam. In this embodiment, the biochar is used as a purification material for flue gas or polluted water.

[0023] The pyrolysis reactor 10 is a fluidized bed type or a fixed bed type.

[0024] The boiler 20 is connected to the pyrolysis reactor 10 and is used to perform a combustion reaction based on the input fuel and the pyrolysis gas output by the pyrolysis reactor 10 to generate high-temperature flue gas.

[0025] In this embodiment, the fuel is coal, and further, the coal is in powder form.

[0026] The boiler 20 includes a furnace 201, a horizontal flue 202, a tail flue 203 and an oil burner nozzle (not shown in the figure) connected in sequence.

[0027] The high-temperature flue gas generated in the furnace 201 is discharged through the horizontal flue 202 and the tail flue 203 in sequence.

[0028] The oil burner nozzle is used to control the amount of pyrolysis gas input from the pyrolysis reactor 10 to the boiler 20 .

[0029] In this embodiment, pyrolysis gas is delivered to boiler 20 via the oil burner nozzle for stable combustion during peak load regulation. When stable combustion is not required, the oil burner nozzle stops delivering pyrolysis gas to boiler 20, and the pyrolysis gas continues to react in pyrolysis reactor 10 to produce biomethanol.

[0030] The recirculation flue 30 is connected to the boiler 20 and the pyrolysis reactor 10 respectively, and is used to input part of the high-temperature flue gas generated by the boiler 20 into the pyrolysis reactor 10.

[0031] One end of the recycling flue 30 is arranged at the connection between the horizontal flue 202 and the tail flue 203 , and the other end of the recycling flue 30 is arranged at the lower part of the pyrolysis reactor 10 .

[0032] The ratio of the high-temperature flue gas inputted into the pyrolysis reactor 10 from the recirculating flue 30 to all the high-temperature flue gas generated by the boiler 20 is less than 10%.

[0033] The steam subsystem 40 is used to absorb the heat generated by the boiler 20 to generate steam to drive the generator 50 to work.

[0034] The steam subsystem 40 includes an economizer 401, a water-cooled wall 402, a radiation superheater 403, a high-temperature superheater 404, a turbine assembly 405 and a heat supply 406 connected in sequence.

[0035] The water-cooled wall 402 is disposed in the furnace 201 .

[0036] The radiation superheater 403 and the high-temperature superheater 404 are both arranged in the horizontal flue 202 .

[0037] The turbine assembly 405 drives the generator 50 to work by using the steam.

[0038] The turbine assembly 405 includes a superheated steam turbine 4051, a high-temperature reheater 4052 and a reheated steam turbine 4053 connected in sequence.

[0039] The superheated steam turbine 4051, the reheated steam turbine 4053 and the generator 50 are coaxially connected in sequence.

[0040] The high-temperature reheater 4052 is arranged in the horizontal flue 202.

[0041] In this embodiment, the radiation superheater 403, the high-temperature superheater 404 and the high-temperature reheater 4052 are sequentially arranged in the horizontal flue 202 along the flow direction of the high-temperature flue gas.

[0042] The heat supplier 406 is connected to the high-temperature superheater 404 and the water-cooled wall 402 respectively, and is disposed in the pyrolysis reactor 10 for providing heat to the pyrolysis reactor 10 .

[0043] Part of the water vapor output by the high-temperature superheater 404 enters the water-cooled wall 402 through the heater 406 .

[0044] The ratio of the water vapor flowing through the heater 406 to the total water vapor output by the high-temperature superheater 404 is less than 20%.

[0045] In this embodiment, the process occurring in the pyrolysis reactor 10 is an endothermic process, and the heat absorbed comes from the high-temperature flue gas flowing into the pyrolysis reactor 10 and the water vapor flowing through the pyrolysis reactor 10 .

[0046] The flow process of the high-temperature flue gas in this embodiment is specifically as follows:

[0047] The combustion reaction in furnace 201 generates high-temperature flue gas, which then flows out of the flue consisting of horizontal flue 202 and tail flue 203. During this process, it flows through radiation superheater 403, high-temperature superheater 404, high-temperature reheater 4052, and economizer 401. In addition, part of the high-temperature flue gas in the above process flows into pyrolysis reactor 10 through recirculation flue 30.

[0048] The specific cycle of water vapor in this embodiment is as follows:

[0049] First, liquid water enters economizer 401 to generate steam. The steam then passes through water-cooled wall 402, radiant superheater 403, and high-temperature superheater 404 in sequence. The steam then enters superheated steam turbine 4051 to perform work. After performing work, the steam enters high-temperature reheater 4052 for heating, then enters reheated steam turbine 4053 to perform work. After performing work, the steam re-enters economizer 401. During this process, superheated steam turbine 4051 and reheated steam turbine 4053 convert thermal energy into mechanical energy, which is then converted into electrical energy by generator 50. Furthermore, during this process, some steam does not enter superheated steam turbine 4051 but instead flows into heater 406 to provide heat for the pyrolysis process in pyrolysis reactor 10. After releasing heat, the steam enters water-cooled wall 402 to continue the subsequent steam cycle.
