Description

TECHNICAL FIELD

[0001] The utility model relates to the technical field of absorption tower, specifically relates to a self -adaptation load's high -efficient absorption tower. BACKGROUND

[0002] In today's growing emphasis on environmental protection, coal-fired power plants and other major emitters face more stringent ultra-low emission requirements. In order to meet these requirements, desulfurization absorption tower as the core equipment of flue gas desulfurization, its design and operation efficiency become the key.

[0003] At present, the desulfurization absorption tower generally adopts the structure design of multiple spray layers plus porous trays. The spray absorption tower is sequentially from the bottom up slurry pool area, SO2 absorption area and demisting area. The flue gas enters the absorption tower from the lower part of the absorption area, passes through the porous tray and several layers of spray layer in turn, each spray layer is arranged with multiple atomizing nozzles, the slurry is atomized by the nozzle and sprayed downward and dispersed in mist form through the absorption area, and contacts and mass transfer with the countercurrent flue gas. After the gas-liquid contact, the flue gas carries a large amount of liquid droplets, which are separated by the demister in the demisting area at the upper part of the absorption tower, and then discharged from the absorption tower. The bottom of the absorption tower is the slurry pool area, the function of the slurry pool is to accept and store the absorption slurry, dissolve limestone, blow oxygen to CaSO3, and crystallize to generate gypsum.

[0004] At present, the national ultra-low emission requirement of flue gas pollutants in thermal power plants is that the concentration of sulfur dioxide is not higher than 35 mg / Nm 3 , and the concentration of particulate matter is not higher than 5 mg / Nm 3 . In order to meet this requirement, the desulfurization absorption tower is generally designed according to the number of slurry spray layers and the amount of spray under full load operation of the unit, and the tray opening rate is designed according to the corresponding spray amount to form a liquid layer with appropriate thickness. In most cases, the spray layer is designed as 4-5 layers, and the tray opening rate is designed as 30-40%. This structure meets the demand of ultra-low emission to a certain extent, but with the continuous improvement of environmental protection standards and the diversification of unit operation conditions, especially under the requirement of national policy for deep peak shaving and flexible operation of thermal power units, its limitations gradually appear.

[0005] The design of evenly arranging multiple atomizing nozzles on the spray layer results in less slurry coverage near the wall area of the absorption tower than in the central area, and a large amount of slurry flows downward along the inner wall of the absorption tower without achieving the effect of atomizing absorption. In addition, in many projects, in order to prevent the long-term direct scouring of the absorption tower wall by the nozzles near the wall, the number of wall-attached nozzles is intentionally reduced or the direction of the wall-attached nozzles is adjusted, which further reduces the slurry coverage near the wall area of the absorption tower. In this way, a ring-shaped flue gas "short circuit area" near the wall is formed on the cross section of the absorption tower, in which the flue gas is not fully washed by the absorption slurry and is directly discharged outside the absorption tower, greatly reducing the desulfurization efficiency. Taking a desulfurization absorption tower matched with a 300 MW thermal power unit as an example, the cross-sectional diameter of the absorption zone of the absorption tower is 12 m, and engineering tests show that the desulfurization efficiency in the central area of the absorption tower is generally more than 99%, and a ring-shaped flue gas "short circuit area" with a width of about 1.5 m is formed near the wall, in which the desulfurization efficiency can only reach about 90%. Calculation shows that about 90% of the SO2 escape occurs in this ring-shaped "short circuit area".

[0006] The traditional tray is designed with a fixed opening rate of about 35%, and the principle of tray efficiency determines that the selection of opening rate is a pair of contradictions between the increase of flue gas resistance and the increase of system efficiency, that is, the higher the opening rate, the lower the flue gas resistance, but the liquid holding layer is difficult to form, and the efficiency is weak; the lower the opening rate, the higher the flue gas resistance, but the liquid holding layer is thicker, and the efficiency is obvious.

[0007] In actual operation, the main problem faced by the fixed opening rate tray is the adaptability of working conditions, which is specifically manifested in that: the desulfurization tower is generally designed according to full load and high sulfur content, while the load of the power plant or the sulfur content of the coal fluctuates greatly and is lower than the design value in most cases, which leads to that the number of opened spray layers often cannot reach the design number. Since the tray is arranged below all the spray layers, the spray slurry acting on the tray is far less than the design condition, and since the opening rate of the tray is fixed, the slurry will directly pass through the hole and cannot form a certain thickness of the liquid holding layer on the tray. In this case, the desulfurization and dust removal effect of the tray is greatly reduced, and the existence of the tray resistance increases the system power consumption.

[0008] During low load operation, due to the reduction of flue gas volume, the flue gas flow rate also decreases significantly. Although the reduction of flow rate prolongs the residence time of flue gas in the absorption tower, research shows that the desulfurization reaction is more affected by the intensity of turbulent flow than the residence time. This directly affects the mass transfer efficiency between gas and liquid phases. Lower flow rate weakens the turbulent flow intensity of gas and liquid phases, reduces the mass transfer rate, and reduces the desulfurization efficiency.

[0009] Therefore, the current desulfurization efficiency increasing measures, such as the tray, the efficiency increasing ring and the like, are mostly designed as fixed structures without adjustment function. This limits their adaptability under different loads and different flue gas conditions, and it is difficult to effectively cope with the demand of deep load regulation and flexibility reconstruction of the thermal power generating unit. With the change of the power market, the frequent load change operation of the unit becomes the norm, and the fixed efficiency increasing measures have been difficult to meet the dynamically changing desulfurization demand, and it is urgent to develop more flexible and adjustable efficiency increasing technology.

[0026] Reference will now be made in detail to the embodiments of the present disclosure, one or more examples of which are set forth herein below. Each embodiment and example provides an explanation of devices, components, and materials of the present disclosure by way of illustration, and not limitation. Instead, the following description provides a convenient illustration for implementing exemplary embodiments of the present disclosure. Indeed, a person skilled in the art will readily appreciate that various modifications and variations can be made to the present disclosure without departing from the scope or spirit of the present disclosure.

[0027] As Figs. 1-3 shown, the utility model discloses a kind of self-adapting load's high-efficiency absorption tower, including tower body 1, flue gas inlet 2 and flue gas outlet 3 are arranged on tower body 1, flue gas enters in tower body from flue gas inlet 2 and flows from bottom to top to flue gas outlet 3, tower body 1 forms slurry pool 4 below flue gas inlet 2;On the flow path of flue gas, multiple porous trays 5, spray layer 6 and demister 7 are sequentially arranged along the flow direction, the edge wall cover plate 8 that flue gas flow area adjustment is carried out at porous tray 5 along circumferential direction is arranged, the lower end of the edge wall cover plate 8 is rotationally connected with the inner wall of tower body 1 at the edge of porous tray 5, adjusting mechanism for adjusting the rotation angle of edge wall cover plate is arranged in tower body 1.
