Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This utility model relates to the field of coal chemical technology, and in particular to a coal gasification black water circulation and black water waste heat recovery and utilization system. Background Technology
[0002] Coal gasification black water is a type of wastewater containing various impurities produced during the coal gasification process. It mainly contains fine particulate coal slag, carbon black, and other suspended solids, as well as small amounts of gasification reaction byproducts such as sulfides, ammonia nitrogen, phenols, cyanides, and other harmful substances.
[0003] Existing methods for treating black water from coal gasification primarily involve using sedimentation tanks and filters to settle or remove suspended solids. Alternatively, oxidants are used to oxidize and decompose organic matter and reducing agents in the water, reducing their toxicity and pollutant content. Microorganisms are also employed to convert biodegradable organic matter into carbon dioxide and water, removing nutrients such as ammonia nitrogen. However, due to the complex composition of coal gasification black water, containing various pollutants such as sulfides, ammonia nitrogen, phenols, and cyanides, these substances can inhibit microorganisms in the recycling system, affecting the biological treatment effect. They may also undergo chemical reactions during circulation, generating new, difficult-to-treat substances. Furthermore, calcium and magnesium ions and some dissolved salts in the high-temperature coal gasification black water easily form scale on the surfaces of equipment and pipes. This not only reduces heat transfer efficiency and increases energy consumption, but in severe cases, it can clog pipes, causing system load reduction or even forced shutdown for cleaning, and also results in the loss of significant amounts of waste heat from the black water. Current treatment methods struggle to solve the scaling and clogging problem of black water and cannot achieve waste heat recovery.
[0004] Therefore, it is necessary to develop a system and method for recycling black water from coal gasification and recovering waste heat from the black water to solve the above problems. Utility Model Content

[0016] The method for recycling black water and recovering waste heat from coal gasification using the aforementioned coal gasification black water recycling and black water waste heat recovery system includes the following steps:

[0018] (S2) After the high-temperature black water enters the high-pressure flash tank (0.5Mpa), it undergoes preliminary gas-liquid separation to separate high-pressure flash steam (0.5Mpa, 158℃) and high-temperature black water (0.5Mpa, 158℃).

After exchanging heat with the desalinated chilled water in the shell side of the black water heat exchanger, the black water is significantly cooled (83℃, 0.4MPa).
[0021] (S5) The black water, after being significantly cooled, is transported through a pipeline to the vacuum flash tank (-0.05 MPa, 83°C), where it undergoes further gas-liquid separation by depressurization. This further separates the volatile components in the liquid to form vacuum flash vapor (-0.05 MPa, 83°C) and black water (-0.05 MPa, 83°C).

The high-pressure flash steam is transported to the shift stripping tower, and the purified water is transported through pipeline to the syngas scrubbing tower for recycling and syngas scrubbing.

[0068] Example 5
[0069] The method for circulating black water and recovering waste heat from coal gasification using the black water circulation and waste heat recovery system described in Example 1 includes the following steps:
[0070] (S1) Medium-pressure boiler water and syngas from the previous section are input into the syngas scrubbing tower 1. After scrubbing, the upper end of the syngas scrubbing tower 1 outputs syngas for conversion, and the lower end of the syngas scrubbing tower 1 outputs high-temperature black water.
[0071] (S2) After the high-temperature black water enters the high-pressure flash tank (0.5Mpa)2, it undergoes preliminary gas-liquid separation to separate high-pressure flash steam (0.5Mpa, 158℃) and high-temperature black water (0.5Mpa, 158℃). The high-pressure flash steam is transported to the high-pressure flash steam lifting tower 9 via pipeline.
[0072] (S3) The high-temperature black water is transported through a pipeline to the low-pressure flash tank (0.15Mpa, 130℃) 3 for secondary gas-liquid separation, further separating the volatile components in the liquid to form low-pressure flash steam (0.15Mpa, 130℃) and high-temperature black water (0.15Mpa, 130℃). The low-pressure flash steam is transported through a pipeline to the low-pressure flash steam lifting tower 8.
[0073] (S4) High-temperature black water (130℃, 0.4MPa) is transported through a pipeline to the tube side of the black water heat exchanger 4. After exchanging heat with the desalinated chilled water in the shell side of the black water heat exchanger 4, the black water is significantly cooled (83℃, 0.4MPa); the temperature of the desalinated chilled water is approximately 70℃, and the pressure is 0.4~0.5MPa.
[0074] (S5) The black water, after being significantly cooled, is transported through a pipeline to the vacuum flash tank (-0.05Mpa, 83℃) 5, where it undergoes further gas-liquid separation by depressurization, further separating the volatile components in the liquid to form vacuum flash vapor (-0.05Mpa, 83℃) and black water (-0.05Mpa, 83℃).
[0075] The vacuum flash vapor (-0.05 MPa, 83°C) is condensed by the vacuum flash condenser 10, where water vapor and low-boiling-point organic gases are converted into liquid (-0.05 MPa, 25°C). This liquid then enters the vacuum flash separator 11, where it is further separated into vacuum flash vapor (-0.05 MPa, 25°C) and a small amount of water (-0.05 MPa, 25°C). The small amount of water enters the ash water tank (at atmospheric pressure, 80°C). The vacuum flash vapor (-0.05 MPa, 25°C) is mixed with air and then transported by the flash vacuum pump 12 to the two waste furnaces for utilization.
[0076] The black water is transported to the settling tank 6 through a pipeline, and the clarified liquid in the upper layer of the settling tank 6 overflows from the upper clarified liquid overflow outlet of the settling tank 6 into the gray water tank (atmospheric pressure, 80℃) 7.
[0077] (S6) Ash water (atmospheric pressure, 80℃) is transported through pipeline to the low-pressure flash steam tower (atmospheric pressure, 100℃) 8 for further flash separation to improve gas recovery efficiency and purify ash water, separating low-pressure flash steam (atmospheric pressure, 100℃) and ash water (atmospheric pressure, 100℃).
[0078] (S7) Subsequently, the grey water (atmospheric pressure, 100℃) is transported through pipeline to the high-pressure flash steam stripping tower (0.5Mpa, 150℃) 9 for deep purification and separation, separating purified water and high-pressure flash steam. The high-pressure flash steam is transported to the shift stripping tower, and the purified water is transported through pipeline to the syngas scrubbing tower 1 for recycling and syngas scrubbing.
[0079] The coal gasification black water circulation and waste heat recovery system of this invention utilizes multi-stage enterprise separation and purification to ultimately obtain purified water that meets the requirements. Simultaneously, a black water heat exchanger is installed within the system, using desalinated chilled water as the heat transfer medium to extract heat from the black water. This heat is then supplied to the lithium bromide unit within the plant to produce chilled water for use in the production process, thereby achieving the purpose of cooling the black water, reducing the operating load of the vacuum flash evaporation system, saving energy consumption of the vacuum pump, and saving on the consumption of the circulating water system. The coal gasification black water circulation and waste heat recovery system of this invention has a simple structure and ingenious design, making it more suitable for widespread application. The method of coal gasification black water circulation and waste heat recovery is simple, easy to implement, highly efficient, and low in cost. The coal gasification black water treated by the coal gasification black water circulation and waste heat recovery system described in this utility model can be reused as circulating water in the syngas scrubbing tower, realizing the recycling of water resources, reducing the intake of fresh water and the discharge of wastewater, and reducing production costs and environmental pressure. At the same time, it solves the problem of scaling and blockage of black water pipes caused by high temperature, and can also fully replace the waste heat of black water for effective utilization, reducing carbon emissions and saving energy. It also achieves the purpose of cooling black water, saving the cooling cost of the vacuum flash evaporation system, and creating continuous and reliable economic benefits for enterprises.
