Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the technical field of coal-fired power generation, and in particular to a gasification system for flexible operation of coal-fired units. Background Technology

[0002] When coal-fired power units participate in grid peak shaving and need to rapidly reduce power supply load, the boiler steam heat load is difficult to respond synchronously due to system inertia, leading to a prominent supply-demand imbalance. To solve this problem, existing technologies propose using excess main steam as a gasifying agent for the gasification reaction of biomass, coal, and other raw materials. This allows for flexible adjustment of the unit's power supply load by maintaining stable boiler heat load. However, this process has significant technical bottlenecks: the main steam temperature is usually low, and the heat it carries is insufficient to support the high temperature required for the gasification reaction. Air needs to be introduced to promote the combustion and heat release of the gasification feedstock to maintain the continuous gasification reaction. Furthermore, the air is introduced into the gasifier through a single inlet, resulting in excessively high oxygen levels at the air inlet. The gasification feedstock is mainly consumed by combustion, and the heat generated by combustion is gradually consumed in the gasification reaction, causing the furnace temperature to gradually decrease. This results in insufficient temperature for the later stages of the reaction, inhibiting the depth of the gasification reaction. Utility Model Content

Detailed Implementation

[0020] To make the objectives, technical solutions, and advantages of the embodiments of this application clearer, the technical solutions of the embodiments of this application will be clearly and completely described below with reference to the accompanying drawings. Obviously, the described embodiments are only some embodiments of this application, and not all embodiments. The components of the embodiments of this application described and shown in the accompanying drawings can generally be arranged and designed in various different configurations. Therefore, the following detailed description of the embodiments of this application provided in the accompanying drawings is not intended to limit the scope of the claimed application, but merely represents selected embodiments of this application. All other embodiments obtained by those skilled in the art based on the embodiments of this application without inventive effort are within the scope of protection of this application.

[0021] In the description of the embodiments of this application, it should be noted that the terms "upper," "lower," "left," "right," "vertical," "horizontal," "inner," and "outer," etc., indicate the orientation or positional relationship based on the orientation or positional relationship shown in the accompanying drawings, or the orientation or positional relationship commonly used when the utility model product is in use.

Therefore, they should not be construed as limitations on the utility model. In addition, the terms "first," "second," and "third," etc., are only used to distinguish descriptions and should not be construed as indicating or implying relative importance.

[0022] Furthermore, terms such as "horizontal" and "vertical" do not imply that components must be absolutely horizontal or suspended, but rather that they can be slightly tilted. For example, "horizontal" simply means that its direction is more horizontal than "vertical," and does not mean that the structure must be completely horizontal, but can be slightly tilted.

[0023] In the description of the embodiments of this application, it should also be noted that, unless otherwise explicitly specified and limited, the terms "set," "install," "connect," and "connect" should be interpreted broadly. For example, they can refer to a fixed connection, a detachable connection, or an integral connection; they can refer to a mechanical connection or an electrical connection; they can refer to a direct connection or an indirect connection through an intermediate medium; and they can refer to the internal connection of two components. Those skilled in the art can understand the specific meaning of the above terms in this utility model based on the specific circumstances.

[0024] When coal-fired power units need to rapidly reduce power supply load to participate in grid peak shaving, the boiler steam heat load is difficult to adjust synchronously due to problems such as large system thermal inertia and slow response, resulting in limited peak shaving capacity of the units. To address this contradiction, existing technologies propose using excess main steam as a gasifying agent, coupled with biomass or coal as raw materials for gasification reactions, to achieve flexible adjustment of power supply load by maintaining stable boiler heat load. However, this technology has the following significant drawbacks in practical applications: the main steam temperature is generally below 630℃, and its enthalpy value cannot meet the high-temperature conditions required for gasification reactions. To maintain the reaction temperature, excess air needs to be introduced to promote the combustion and heat release of the gasification feedstock. Some processes even use the secondary combustion of gasification by-product coke as a supplementary heat source. In this mode, some gasification feedstock is directly consumed by combustion instead of being converted into high-value products, resulting in a significant reduction in gasification efficiency and additional CO2 emissions, which contradicts the low-carbon goal. In addition, existing gasification systems use a single air inlet design, and the concentrated injection of oxygen leads to excessively high oxygen concentration in the inlet area, forming a reaction zone dominated by combustion. Although the heat released by combustion can briefly raise the furnace temperature, as the gasification feedstock flows toward the outlet, the oxygen is gradually depleted, and the heat is rapidly consumed by the gasification endothermic reaction, causing the reaction temperature in the later stage to drop sharply to below 600°C. This temperature gradient, which is high at the beginning and low at the end, severely inhibits the depth of the gasification reaction.

[0025] like Figure 1 As shown in the figure, this application provides one of the gasification systems for flexible operation of coal-fired power units, including: a first steam pipeline 102, a second steam pipeline 206, a flue gas pipeline 201 and an air pipeline 202.

[0026] The inlet of the first steam pipe 102 is connected to the main steam pipe 101 of the boiler of the coal-fired unit, and the outlet of the first steam pipe 102 is connected to the steam inlet of the boiler. The inlet of the second steam pipe 206 is connected to the reheat steam pipe 104, and the outlet of the second steam pipe 206 is connected in parallel to the first steam pipe 102. Multiple sets of furnace wall inlets 203 are formed on the furnace wall of the gasifier 103. Each set of furnace wall inlets 203 includes a flue gas inlet 2031 and an air inlet 2032. The flue gas inlet 2031 is used to transport high-temperature flue gas into the gasifier 103 through the flue gas pipe 201, and the air inlet 2032 is used to transport hot air into the gasifier 103 through the air pipe 202. The multiple sets of furnace wall inlets are evenly arranged on the furnace wall along the flow direction of the main steam, or they can be arranged along the flow direction of the main steam, and / or the multiple sets of furnace wall inlets are arranged on the furnace wall circumferentially.

[0027] Here, the number of furnace wall inlets 203 can be 3-7 groups. The interval between the flue gas inlet 2031 and the air inlet 2032 in each group of furnace wall inlets 203 can be set to 1 meter-3 meters. Each flue gas inlet 2031 and each air inlet 2032 is provided with a nozzle. On the one hand, the high-temperature flue gas supplements a large amount of heat to provide the required heat for the gasification reaction. On the other hand, the high-temperature flue gas dilutes the oxygen content of the hot air, further preventing the combustion of the gasification raw materials from participating in the gasification reaction. Compared with the traditional gasification process, the gasifier 103 in this application is no longer divided into a combustion zone and a gasification reaction zone. Instead, multiple high-temperature, extremely low-oxygen gasification reaction zones are formed in the gasifier 103, which greatly improves the conversion rate of gasification raw materials to gasification products.

[0028] In addition, this application can also adjust the high-temperature flue gas and hot air for the real-time feedback parameters of the gasification reaction in each area of ​​the gasifier 103, thereby adjusting the reaction temperature and oxygen concentration in real time, realizing fine control of the gasification reaction, and further ensuring the efficient gasification reaction. This application is also compatible with traditional gasification processes, and on this basis, it can improve the gasification quality by adjusting the gasification parameters in the furnace through the injection of high-temperature flue gas and hot air.

[0029] In a preferred embodiment of this application, the inlet of the flue gas pipeline 201 is connected to the inlet of the horizontal flue outlet of the boiler of the coal-fired unit, so as to transport the high-temperature flue gas in the horizontal flue outlet of the boiler to the gasifier 103 through the flue gas pipeline 201.

[0030] The flue gas pipeline 201 includes a main flue gas pipeline and multiple branch flue gas pipelines. The number of branch flue gas pipelines is the same as the number of flue gas inlets 2031. The inlet of the main flue gas pipeline is connected to the inlet of the horizontal flue gas duct at the furnace outlet of the boiler. The outlet of the main flue gas pipeline is connected to the inlet of all the branch flue gas pipelines. The outlet of each branch flue gas pipeline is connected to the corresponding flue gas inlet 2031. Each branch flue gas pipeline is equipped with a valve to control the flow rate of high-temperature flue gas in that branch flue gas pipeline.

[0031] Air duct 202 includes a main air duct and multiple branch air ducts. The number of branch air ducts is the same as the number of air inlets 2032. The outlet of the main air duct is connected to the inlet of all branch air ducts. The outlet of each branch air duct is connected to the corresponding air inlet 2032. Each branch air duct is equipped with a valve to control the flow rate of hot air in that branch air duct.

[0032] Among them, multiple sets of furnace wall inlets 203 are evenly arranged on the furnace wall along the flow direction of the main steam.

[0033] The gasification system layout described in this application improves the peak-shaving flexibility and gasification reaction efficiency of coal-fired power units through multi-level media coordinated supply and spatial distribution optimization.

[0034] like Figure 2 As shown in the embodiment of this application, a second gasification system for flexible operation of a coal-fired unit is also provided, including: an air preheater 204, a reheater 205, a first valve 2071, a second valve 2072, a cyclone separator 208, a tar cooling collector 209, a scrubbing tower 210, a gas storage tank 211, a dryer 212, a secondary air duct 214, and a secondary air fan 213.

[0035] The secondary air outlet of the air preheater 204 is connected to the inlet of the air duct 202 to deliver hot air into the gasifier 103 through the air duct 202. At the same time, the air preheater 204 can also receive heat from the primary air and flue gas for heat exchange. The inlet of the air duct 202 is connected between the secondary air outlet of the air preheater 204 and the secondary air box duct.

[0036] As an example, the air preheater 204 is located downstream of the SCR denitrification system of the coal-fired unit, and is used to exchange heat with the secondary air by recovering the heat of the hot flue gas flowing through the SCR denitrification system to obtain hot air.

[0037] The reheater 205 is installed in the horizontal flue at the furnace outlet of the boiler of the coal-fired unit. The reheat steam pipeline 104 is connected to the reheater 205, specifically at the boiler furnace outlet (at the horizontal flue after the flame deflector).

[0038] The first valve 2071 is installed on the first steam pipeline 102 to control the main steam flow rate entering the gasifier 103, and the second valve 2072 is installed on the second steam pipeline 206 to control the reheat steam flow rate entering the first steam pipeline 102.

[0039] As an example, the high-temperature superheater is installed in the horizontal flue at the furnace outlet, and the inlet of the main steam pipeline is connected to the outlet of the high-temperature superheater.

[0040] The high-temperature reheater is located in the horizontal flue at the furnace outlet, and the inlet of the reheat steam pipeline is connected to the outlet of the high-temperature reheater.

[0041] The inlet of the cyclone separator 208 is connected to the outlet of the gasifier 103, the first inlet of the tar cooling collector 209 is connected to the first outlet of the cyclone separator 208, the second inlet of the tar cooling collector 209 is used to receive secondary air, the inlet of the scrubbing tower 210 is connected to the first outlet of the tar cooling collector 209, and the gas storage tank 211 is connected to the outlet of the scrubbing tower 210.

[0042] The first inlet of the dryer 212 is connected to the second outlet of the cyclone separator 208, the first outlet of the dryer 212 is connected to the raw material inlet of the gasifier 103, the second inlet of the dryer 212 is connected to the second outlet of the tar cooling collector 209, and the second outlet of the dryer 212 is connected to the secondary air inlet of the air preheater 204.

[0043] The inlet of the secondary air duct 214 is connected to the secondary air box of the coal-fired unit. The secondary air duct 214 is connected in sequence to the second inlet of the tar cooling collector 209. The secondary air fan 213 is installed on the secondary air duct 214 to draw secondary air from the secondary air box.

[0044] As an example, the first outlet of the cyclone separator 208 is located at the bottom, and the solid product at the first outlet is gasified carbon. The second outlet of the cyclone separator 208 is connected to the shell side of the tar cooling and collection device. The pipe side of the tar cooling device is cold secondary air. The cold secondary air absorbs heat from the gasification products on the shell side and is heated, while simultaneously cooling and collecting the tar, which is discharged from the bottom of the cooling device. The secondary air heated by the tar cooling device passes through the dryer 212 to heat and dry the gasification feedstock. The gasification feedstock includes, but is not limited to, coal, biomass, sludge, and other organic solid waste.

[0045] Here, the gasification feedstock is connected to the feedstock inlet of gasifier 103 via dryer 212. The outlet of gasifier 103 is connected to the inlet of cyclone separator 208. The upper gas outlet of cyclone separator 208 is connected to the inlet of tar cooling and collection device. The outlet of tar cooling and collection device is connected to the inlet of scrubbing tower 210. The outlet of scrubbing tower 210 is connected to gas storage tank 211. The particulate matter separated from the lower part of cyclone separator 208 is solid carbon produced by gasification, which can be further processed to prepare activated carbon and other products. The liquid product collected at the bottom of the capture device is gasified tar, which can be further processed into chemical products such as aviation fuel; the gas collected in the gas storage tank 211 is gasified gas, which can be used for low-load auxiliary stable combustion of boiler 100, or to replace coal during normal operation; in the tar cooling device, cold secondary air is used to cool and collect the tar. After being heated, the cold secondary air enters the dryer 212 to dry and preheat the gasification raw material, and then enters the air preheater 204 for heating. One path enters the furnace, and the other path enters the gasifier 103 as combustion air.

[0046] Compared with the prior art, this application has the following advantages:

[0047] This application significantly improves the flexibility and gasification efficiency of coal-fired power units through multi-level coordinated control. When the unit needs to rapidly reduce load, the amount of main steam and reheat steam entering the turbine is reduced first, and the excess steam is introduced into the gasifier for biomass, coal, or solid waste gasification to maintain stable boiler heat load. After the power supply load is adjusted, the amount of coal is gradually reduced to avoid safety risks caused by sudden changes in boiler heat load. Conversely, when the load needs to be rapidly increased, the steam supply to the gasifier is reduced, and more steam is directed to the turbine to achieve agile response to power generation load. This dynamic steam redistribution effectively solves the timing contradiction between the coordinated regulation of power supply load and boiler heat load, improving the unit's peak-shaving response speed. At the same time, the gasification system adopts high-temperature flue gas and hot air multi-point coordinated injection technology: 3-7 sets of nozzles are arranged along the flow direction of gasification feedstock, each set including one hot air nozzle and one high-temperature flue gas nozzle. High-temperature flue gas not only provides heat for the gasification reaction, but also reduces the oxygen concentration and inhibits the combustion loss of raw materials, creating a homogeneous reaction environment with high temperature and low oxygen throughout the gasifier. The flow rate of the medium at each nozzle can be dynamically adjusted to achieve millimeter-level precision control of temperature gradient and oxygen concentration. While realizing the resource utilization of solid waste, it also has the advantages of frequency regulation performance improvement and circular economy value.

[0048] Based on this application, the final products can be gasified carbon, gasified oil, and gasified gas. Gasified carbon can be used to produce activated carbon and other products, gasified oil can be used to produce asphalt, aviation fuel, and other products, and gasified gas can directly assist in deep peak shaving of boilers, maintaining stable combustion and replacing coal. Simultaneously, the main steam, high-temperature flue gas from the boiler, and hot air used in the gasification reaction can also serve as a buffer for boiler heat load adjustment after the unit's power supply load is adjusted, promoting a rapid and stable reduction or increase in boiler heat load, which is beneficial for coal saving, carbon reduction, and improving the operational flexibility of coal-fired units. Furthermore, the gasification feedstock can be biomass, coal, sludge, and other solid waste, enabling the efficient and clean utilization of coal, renewable zero-carbon fuels, and solid waste.

[0049] Finally, it should be noted that the above-described embodiments are merely specific implementations of this application, used to illustrate the technical solutions of this application, and not to limit them. The scope of protection of this application is not limited thereto.
