Description

Technical Field

[0001] The utility model relates to the technical field of ammonia escape control, in particular to a deammonification device based on an absorbent to capture ammonia escape. Background Art

[0002] Nitrogen oxides (NO, NO2, and N2O) are considered major air pollutants that contribute to acid rain, the greenhouse effect, photochemical smog, and human lung diseases. The combustion of fossil fuels for transportation and industry is the primary source of these oxides. Selective catalytic reduction (SCR) and selective non-catalytic reduction (SNCR) of NOx with ammonia are currently considered the most effective technologies for removing NOx, with VW(Mo)-Ti catalysts being the most widely used catalysts in SCR technology.

[0003] With the introduction of ultra-low emission standards in China in 2014, the requirements for nitrogen oxide emission concentrations have become more stringent (less than 50mg / Nm 3 ), to improve denitrification efficiency, more ammonia needs to be injected into the flue gas to provide sufficient reducing agent to remove nitrogen oxides. However, excess ammonia cannot be completely consumed by nitrogen oxides. Deactivation of commercial SCR catalysts or uneven mixing of ammonia and nitrogen oxide gases can easily exacerbate this situation, leading to ammonia slip. Ammonia slip is undoubtedly a waste of resources and inconsistent with the concept of green development. More importantly, ammonia slip is harmful to both the environment and the SCR system. Commercial SCR catalysts can oxidize SO2 in the flue gas to SO3, which then reacts with ammonia slip to form sticky NH4HSO4, leading to catalyst poisoning and air preheater corrosion, shortening the service life of the SCR system. Ammonia slip is a key indicator of denitrification performance.

[0004] The main measures to control ammonia escape include developing an injection system to make the flue gas mix evenly, or to mix NH3 / NO x The ratio is limited to around 0.9-0.95, but the current solution is not effective and difficult to achieve. The method of reducing ammonia content will reduce the conversion efficiency of nitrogen oxides, making it difficult to meet the strict ultra-low emission standards. PID control and manual ammonia injection adjustment are currently commonly used to control ammonia slip. Operators often increase the amount of ammonia to quickly reduce the concentration of nitrogen oxides, but this will cause excess ammonia to escape into the environment, wasting energy and causing secondary pollution. In addition, the existing PID input and output structure is simple, and the closed-loop dynamic quality is very sensitive to changes in PID gain. Under complex denitrification settings, PID can only control one denitrification indicator at a time. In addition, since the system needs to constantly modify the control parameters, the system operation is still unstable, making it difficult to meet the strict current ultra-low emission standards for nitrogen oxides. Therefore, ammonia cannot be effectively absorbed and the treatment efficiency is low. Utility Model Content

[0030] The present invention provides a deamination device based on an absorbent to capture ammonia escape, such as Figure 1 As shown, including:

[0031] The lower section of the absorption tower is the first circulation section (marked as circulation section A in the figure), and the upper section of the absorption tower is the second circulation section (marked as circulation section B in the figure). The flue gas inlet 1 is located between the spray port of the first circulation section of the absorption tower and the absorbent liquid level. The flue gas after ammonia removal is sent from the top of the absorption tower to the chimney 2; the bottom of the absorption tower is the rich liquid discharge outlet.

[0032] The first upper end of the ammonia recovery tower 3 is connected to the rich liquid outlet of the first circulation section of the absorption tower through a first conduit; the lean liquid outlet of the ammonia recovery tower 3 is connected to the second circulation section of the absorption tower through a second conduit and a lean liquid discharge pump 4.

[0033] The electric heater 5 is provided in the first conduit and is used to heat the rich liquid discharged from the first circulation section of the absorption tower to a boiling state, thereby decomposing ammonia.

[0034] The upper end of the reboiler 6 is connected to the top of the ammonia recovery tower through the third conduit and the compressor 7; the top of the reboiler 6 is connected to the middle of the ammonia recovery tower 3 through the fourth conduit; the bottom end of the reboiler 6 is connected to the bottom end of the ammonia recovery tower through the fifth conduit and the reboiler circulation pump 8. The reboiler circulation pump 8 is used to transport the lean liquid at the bottom of the ammonia recovery tower 3 to the reboiler 6.

[0035] The lower end of the flash tank 9 is connected to the lower end of the reboiler 6 through the sixth conduit, the bottom end of the flash tank is connected to the second upper end of the ammonia recovery tower 3 through the reflux pump 10, and the top end of the flash tank 9 is connected to the ammonia solution storage tank through the seventh conduit and the first heat exchanger 11.

[0036] As an optional embodiment, an eighth conduit is further included, one end of which is connected to the lean liquid outlet 12 of the second circulation section of the absorption tower, and the other end of the eighth conduit is connected to the lean liquid inlet of the first circulation section of the absorption tower.

[0037] As an optional embodiment, a circulation box 13 is further included, the upper end of which is connected to the other end of the eighth conduit. The lower end of the circulation box 13 is connected to the lean liquid inlet of the first circulation stage of the absorption tower via a ninth conduit. An absorbent dosing port is provided at the top of the circulation box, which is connected to the absorbent storage tank 14. In this embodiment, the absorbent is a phosphoric acid solution.

[0038] As an optional embodiment, a second heat exchanger 15 is further included, which is arranged at the second conduit and is used to cool the lean liquid discharged from the ammonia recovery tower.

[0039] As an optional embodiment, the first heat exchanger 11 and the second heat exchanger 15 are circulating water heat exchangers.

[0040] As an optional embodiment, the cold-end inlet of the second heat exchanger 15 is connected to the rich-liquid outlet of the first circulation section of the absorber via a rich-liquid discharge pump 16 and a first conduit. The cold-end outlet of the second heat exchanger 15 is connected to the ammonia recovery tower 3 via an electric heater 5 and a second conduit.

[0041] As an optional embodiment, the spraying device of the first circulation section of the absorption tower is connected to the absorbent solution at the lower end of the first circulation section through the tenth conduit and the first circulation pump 17.

[0042] As an optional embodiment, the spraying device of the second circulation section of the absorption tower is connected to the circulation box 13 through the eleventh conduit and the second circulation pump 18.

[0043] As an optional embodiment, a dust collector 19 and a kiln tail fan 20 are further included, which are arranged at the front end of the flue gas inlet 1 to remove dust from the flue gas 21.

[0044] The workflow of the deamination device based on the capture of ammonia escape by an absorbent provided in this embodiment is mainly divided into three parts:

[0045] Flue gas flow: Flue gas enters the absorption tower, cools in the A circulation section, and then enters the B circulation section, where it comes into countercurrent contact with an absorbent, such as phosphoric acid solution. Over 95% of the ammonia in the flue gas is absorbed in the B circulation section. The ammonia-free flue gas is then sent from the top of the absorption tower to the chimney.

[0046] Mother liquor process: The phosphoric acid solution in the absorption tower A cycle and B cycle is supplied by two circulating pumps (one for standby). Figure 2As shown, the circulating pump in section A delivers a portion of the rich liquid (phosphoric acid solution after ammonia absorption) to the solution heat exchanger (lean-rich liquid heat exchanger). The rich liquid undergoes heat exchange with the hot lean liquid (desorbed phosphoric acid solution) from the bottom of the ammonia recovery tower. The rich liquid is heated to a boiling state and then enters the ammonia recovery tower, where a small amount of acidic gas in the rich liquid is blown out and returned to the ammonia absorption tower. The rich liquid then countercurrently contacts the saturated steam from the bottom of the desorption tower, desorbing ammonia from the rich liquid. The lean liquid at the bottom of the tower enters the lean-rich liquid heat exchanger, where it is cooled and then enters the circulation section B of the absorption tower for recycling.

[0047] Ammonia water process: After the ammonia vapor coming out of the top of the ammonia recovery tower passes through the compressor and reboiler and exchanges heat with the lean liquid from the bottom of the ammonia recovery tower, the ammonia vapor then passes through the circulating water heat exchanger and is completely condensed by cooling water into ≥20% ammonia water. It flows to the ammonia water intermediate tank and then enters the owner's SNCR or SCR ammonia water storage tank.

[0048] The reaction principle of the deamination device based on the absorbent capturing ammonia escape provided in this embodiment is as follows:

[0049] Absorption principle: The flue gas is washed by phosphoric acid mother liquor, and the ammonia in the flue gas reacts with phosphoric acid in the mother liquor to produce three ammonium salts with different thermal stability: diammonium dihydrogen phosphate (NH4H2PO4), diammonium hydrogen phosphate ((NH4)2HPO4), and ammonium phosphate ((NH4)3PO4), which are then absorbed by the phosphoric acid mother liquor.

[0050] Desorption principle: The three ammonium salts produced in the ammonia absorption tower have different thermal stabilities. Ammonium phosphate is very unstable and decomposes to produce diammonium hydrogen phosphate and ammonia at room temperature; diammonium hydrogen phosphate is relatively unstable and begins to decompose to produce ammonium dihydrogen phosphate and ammonia at 70°C; diammonium dihydrogen phosphate is very unstable and begins to decompose to produce phosphoric acid and ammonia at temperatures above 130°C. Taking advantage of the different thermal stabilities of these three ammonium salts, they are heated with steam in the ammonia recovery tower to decompose them to produce ammonia, which is then made into concentrated ammonia water.

[0051] In normal production, the ammonium salt in the solution exists in two forms: diammonium dihydrogen phosphate and diammonium hydrogen phosphate. The principle reaction formula is as follows:

[0052]

[0053] This embodiment of the utility model provides a denitrification device that uses an absorbent to capture ammonia escape, suitable for energy-intensive industries such as cement, steel, thermal power, and chemical industries. SCR flue gas denitrification technology achieves a denitrification efficiency exceeding 85%, while SNCR flue gas denitrification technology generally has a denitrification efficiency of 40%-60%, but still results in significant ammonia escape. The denitrification device provided in this embodiment can be directly installed at the back end of an SCR, SNCR, or SCR-SNCR system, significantly reducing the concentration of escaped ammonia.
