Description

Technical Field

[0001] The utility model relates to the field of gas purification and refining, and in particular to a hydrogen-cooled power generation device with a hydrogen online purification function. Background Art

[0002] Hydrogen has the remarkable characteristics of low density and high heat transfer coefficient. When used as a cooling medium for generators, it can reduce ventilation losses, improve heat exchange efficiency and reduce the insulation aging rate. However, during the operation of the generator, the hydrogen purity will inevitably decrease due to factors such as hydrogen leakage, gas contamination, and moisture mixing. According to the provisions of "DL / T 1164-2012 Steam Turbine Generator Operation Guidelines", the hydrogen purity in water-hydrogen-cooled and fully hydrogen-cooled generators should reach 96% (by volume) or above. To improve efficiency, it is best to operate at above 98%, and the volume fraction of oxygen in hydrogen cannot exceed 0.5%. Once the hydrogen purity of the generator continues to be abnormal, it will not only reduce the cooling efficiency, increase ventilation losses, and cause local overheating, but it is more likely to cause a hydrogen explosion due to sparks generated by discharge.

[0003] In order to maintain high generator output, multiple means are needed to maintain hydrogen purity at above 98%. Currently, multiple methods have been used to improve hydrogen purity, such as increasing the frequency of hydrogen discharge and replenishment, installing hydrogen purification equipment, installing sealing oil filtration equipment, etc.; most power plants use hydrogen discharge and replenishment operations to solve the problem of low hydrogen purity, but when the hydrogen purity continues to decline, the frequency of hydrogen discharge and replenishment can be as high as 8 hours / time, indicating that simply increasing the number of hydrogen replenishments cannot fundamentally maintain hydrogen purity.

[0004] At present, some power plants have adopted hydrogen purification devices to improve the purity of hydrogen in generators, such as the comparative document with announcement number CN206069362U, which discloses a hydrogen-cooled generator set oil and gas separation and hydrogen purification device, including a hydrogen input pipeline, an oil-water separator, an explosion-proof compressor, an air cooler, a filter, a heater, a gas separator and a hydrogen output pipeline. A maintenance pipeline is connected between the hydrogen input pipeline and the first gas pipeline, and the maintenance pipeline is arranged in parallel with the oil-water separator. A maintenance valve is provided on the maintenance pipeline; the device adopts a generator hydrogen purification device with an oil-water separation → filtration → gas separation process. Although the hydrogen purity can be increased to more than 99%, there is still a small amount of hydrogen and separated oxygen in the purified exhaust gas, and a deoxidizer is required for exhaust gas treatment, indicating that the hydrogen recovery rate of the device has failed to meet expectations, and the proportion of oxygen in the purified exhaust gas is relatively large. , which increases the safety risks of the device; the purification efficiency of the hydrogen purification device is related to both the hydrogen purity and the recovery rate. Under the premise of ensuring the purity of the purified hydrogen, the hydrogen recovery rate better reflects the economy of the purification device. Therefore, although the device can remove oil, water and impurity gases in hydrogen, its economy and purification efficiency are relatively low; the gas separator in the device simultaneously completes the separation of impurities such as oxygen, nitrogen, and water, which will increase the purification burden of the separation device, reduce its service life, and also affect its hydrogen recovery rate; in addition, the device uses traditional filters to remove a small amount of oil and water in hydrogen, and the filter element needs to be maintained and regenerated regularly. Not only can continuous online purification not be achieved, but it also increases the workload of the unit operation and maintenance personnel. The comparison document discloses that the dust filtration particle size is ≤0.01μm. The higher the filtration accuracy, the more likely it is to cause the filter element to be blocked, which increases the operation and maintenance workload of the device. Utility Model Content

The first membrane separator 33 and the second membrane separator 44 are both existing technologies, which are used to separate dissolved gases such as nitrogen, methane, acetylene, etc.

[0035] like Figure 1 As shown, the electrical control module 5 is connected to all the pressure gauges, pneumatic valves and measurement and control elements of each module, and can realize basic functions such as controlling the valve opening according to the pressure signal, controlling the working parameters of the hydrogen cooler according to the temperature signal, controlling the membrane separation mode according to the hydrogen recovery rate signal, and the sound and light alarm for gas leakage. The control program of the electrical control module 5 is the existing technology.

[0036] The specific method for hydrogen purification is:

[0037] Step 1: The raw gas enters the catalytic deoxidation module 1 from the high-pressure side of the generator 7; the hydrogen pressure of the generator 7 is usually 0.3-0.5 MPa, so the raw gas can enter the catalytic deoxidation module 1 without being pressurized; the first pneumatic valve 11 and the first pressure gauge 12 jointly control the valve opening to adjust the gas flow. After the raw gas enters the catalytic deoxidation module 1 at room temperature, it is first catalytically deoxidized by the deoxidizer 13. The deoxidizer 13 can react the hydrogen and oxygen in the raw gas to generate water under the catalysis of a palladium-based catalyst. This reaction can occur at room temperature and can reduce the oxygen concentration in the raw gas to below 1 ppm. Since this reaction is a highly exothermic reaction, the product will enter the next step together with the raw gas in the form of water vapor; the deoxidized raw gas enters the hydrogen cooler 14 to complete cooling and condensation. The water vapor generated in the previous process and the water vapor contained in the raw gas are condensed into liquid water and enter the next module together with the raw gas.

[0038] Step 2: The raw gas purified by the catalytic deoxygenation module 1 flows into the oil-gas separation module 2. The second pneumatic valve 21 and the second pressure gauge 22 jointly control the valve opening to adjust the gas flow rate. The raw gas then passes through the two-phase separator 23 to remove liquid impurities such as water and oil. After being pressurized by the third pneumatic valve 24 and the explosion-proof compressor 25, it enters the membrane separation process.

[0039] Step 3: The membrane separation process is divided into two modes:

[0040] Mode A: When the gas recovery rate monitored by the measurement and control element in the first membrane separator 33 is higher than 85%, only the first membrane separation module 3 is used for raw gas purification. The specific separation process at this time is as follows: the fourth pneumatic valve 31 is opened. The fourth pneumatic valve 31 and the third pressure gauge 32 jointly control the membrane inlet flow rate. The raw gas is separated in the first membrane separator 33. The separated hydrogen is tested by the first hydrogen purity meter 34 and then enters the low-pressure side of the generator 7 to complete the purification process. The exhaust gas is directly discharged through the first exhaust valve 35.

[0041] Mode B: When the gas recovery rate monitored by the measurement and control element in the first membrane separator 33 is lower than 85%, both membrane separators are put into operation. Taking the first membrane separation module 3 as the primary separation and the second membrane separation module 4 as the secondary separation as an example, the specific separation process at this time is: open the fourth pneumatic valve 31, the fourth pneumatic valve 31 and the third pressure gauge 32 jointly control the membrane inlet flow rate, the raw gas completes the primary separation in the first membrane separator 33, the separated hydrogen enters the low-pressure side of the generator 7 after detection by the first hydrogen purity meter 34, the tail gas enters the second membrane separation module 4 through the sixth pneumatic valve 42, the sixth pneumatic valve 42 and the fourth pressure gauge 43 jointly control the membrane inlet flow rate, completes the secondary separation in the second membrane separator 44, the separated hydrogen enters the low-pressure side of the generator 7 after detection by the second hydrogen purity meter 45, and the exhaust gas generated in the second membrane separator 44 is directly discharged by the second exhaust valve 47.

[0042] Step 4: When the recovery rate of the first membrane separation module 3 continues to drop below 60%, close the fourth pneumatic valve 31 and disconnect the first membrane separation module 3 for maintenance and overhaul; open the fifth pneumatic valve 41, only put the second membrane separation module 4 into operation, and switch to mode A to proceed to step 3; after the overhaul of the first membrane separation module 3 is completed and the recovery rate of the second membrane separation module 4 drops below 85%, switch to mode B with the second membrane separation module 4 as the primary separation and the first membrane separation module 3 as the secondary separation to continue to complete step 3.

[0043] The device can realize continuous online purification; the catalyst used in the deoxidizer 13 can be recycled and does not need to be removed, replaced or replenished; the two-phase separator 23 can discharge sewage online; when the membrane separator is repaired, only the equipment to be repaired is disconnected, and there is no need to shut down the entire device for repair; the operating temperature of the device is within the room temperature range (25-40°C), and only the residual heat of the reaction of the deoxidizer 13 and the hydrogen cooler 14 is used to maintain the operating temperature throughout the process. The membrane inlet pressure of the membrane separator is maintained by a compressor 25. There is no other temperature or pressure change operation, which effectively reduces the energy consumption of the device and reduces the difficulty of operating the device.

[0044] Example 2

[0045] like Figure 2 As shown, the difference between this embodiment and the first embodiment is that, based on the first embodiment, a hydrogen-cooled power generation device with an online hydrogen purification function further includes a gas replacement module 6, and the generator 7 is provided with a gas replacement module 6; the gas replacement module 6 includes a first gas replacement valve 61, a second gas replacement valve 62, a third gas replacement valve 63, a fourth gas replacement valve 64, and a gas replacement pipeline corresponding to the number of replacement valves; the four valves and replacement pipelines are respectively arranged around the generator 7, the third gas replacement valve 63 is connected to the high-pressure side of the generator 7 through the replacement pipeline, and the fourth gas replacement valve 64 is connected to the low-pressure side of the generator 7 through the replacement pipeline; when performing gas replacement, the replacement pipeline can be connected to a gas cylinder (not shown) or a detection instrument (not shown).

[0046] During use, based on Example 1, the gas replacement process is as follows: when the unit needs to replace the gas of the generator 7 and each module due to factors such as shutdown and maintenance, the first gas replacement valve 61 and the second gas replacement valve 62 are opened, and the CO2 gas cylinder used for replacement is connected to the gas replacement pipeline, and the hydrogen in the generator 7 and each module is replaced with CO2; after the CO2 replacement is completed, the first gas replacement valve 61 and the second gas replacement valve 62 are closed, and the third gas replacement valve 63 and the fourth gas replacement valve 64 are opened, and compressed air is connected to replace the CO2 in the generator 7 and each module with compressed air to complete the gas replacement.
