Detailed Implementation
[0021] To make the objectives, technical solutions, and advantages of this utility model clearer, the present utility model will be further described in detail below with reference to the accompanying drawings and embodiments. It should be understood that the specific embodiments described herein are merely illustrative of the present utility model and are not intended to limit the present utility model.
[0022] like Figure 1As shown, the energy-saving device for the coke oven gas compressor system in this embodiment includes a second-stage outlet pipeline 1 of the coke oven gas compressor. A first outlet valve 2 is installed on one side of the second-stage outlet pipeline 1, and a second outlet valve 3 is installed on the other side of the first outlet valve 2. An outlet drain valve 4 is installed between the first outlet valve 2 and the second outlet valve 3. A pipeline drain valve 5 is installed on the side of the second outlet valve 3 opposite to the first outlet valve 2. A power plant coke oven gas external transmission valve 6 is installed on one side of the pipeline drain valve 5. A check valve 7 is connected to the outlet of the first valve 6 for sending coke oven gas from the power plant. The check valve 7 effectively prevents the backflow of coke oven gas. A second valve 8 for sending coke oven gas from the power plant is connected to the outlet of the check valve 7. A fuel gas desulfurization tank inlet valve 9 is connected to one side of the second valve 8. An activated carbon filter tank 17 is connected to the outlet of the inlet valve 9. The inlet valve 9 controls the opening and closing of the inlet pipe of the activated carbon filter tank 17. An outlet valve 1 of the fuel gas desulfurization tank is connected to the outlet of the activated carbon filter tank 17. 1. The outlet valve 11 of the fuel gas desulfurization tank controls the opening and closing of the outlet pipeline of the activated carbon filter tank 17. A fuel gas desulfurization tank bypass valve 10 is also connected in parallel on the second-stage outlet pipeline 1 of the coke oven gas compressor, located at the activated carbon filter tank 17. A shut-off valve 12 is installed on one side of the fuel gas desulfurization tank bypass valve 10, and a shut-off valve 13 is installed on one side of the shut-off valve 12. A shut-off valve 14 is connected to the outlet of the shut-off valve 13. A shut-off valve bypass line 15 is connected in parallel on one side of the shut-off valve bypass line 15 and the shut-off valve 14. The outlet of the rear valve 14 is connected to a fuel gas buffer tank inlet valve 16. The outlet of the fuel gas buffer tank inlet valve 16 is connected to the fuel gas buffer tank 18. The fuel gas buffer tank inlet valve 16 controls the opening and closing of the inlet pipeline of the fuel gas buffer tank 18. Through data analysis, the pipeline opening after the second-stage separator with relatively low pressure in the coke oven gas compressor is used as the fuel gas output section. An activated carbon filter tank 17 is added to remove impurities such as hydrogen sulfide, oil and naphthalene from the coke oven gas and send it to the purified fuel gas buffer tank 18. This can effectively reduce the working load of the coke oven gas compressor and reduce energy consumption.
[0023] like Figure 1As shown, in this embodiment, the outlet of the second-stage outlet pipeline 1 of the coke oven gas compressor is connected to the inlet of the first valve 2 of the second-stage outlet. The first valve 2 and the second valve 3 of the second-stage outlet are connected in series. The outlet drain valve 4 is connected to the second-stage outlet pipeline 1 of the coke oven gas compressor between the first valve 2 and the second valve 3 of the second-stage outlet. The pipeline drain valve 5 is connected to the second-stage outlet pipeline 1 of the coke oven gas compressor at the outlet of the second valve 3 of the second-stage outlet. The first valve 6, the check valve 7, and the second valve 8 of the power plant coke oven gas export are connected in series. The first valve 6, the check valve 7, and the second valve 8 of the power plant coke oven gas export can ensure the convenient delivery of coke oven gas to the second-stage outlet pipeline 1 of the coke oven gas compressor.
[0024] like Figure 1 As shown, in this embodiment, the inlet of the activated carbon filter tank 17 is connected to the outlet pipeline 1 of the second stage of the coke oven gas compressor through the inlet valve 9 of the fuel gas desulfurization tank, and the outlet of the activated carbon filter tank 17 is connected to the outlet pipeline 1 of the second stage of the coke oven gas compressor through the outlet valve 11 of the fuel gas desulfurization tank. The shut-off valve 13, the valve before the shut-off valve 12, and the valve after the shut-off valve 14 together constitute a shut-off assembly. The main function of the activated carbon filter tank 17 is to remove impurities such as hydrogen sulfide, oil, and naphthalene from the coke oven gas. After being controlled by the shut-off assembly, the gas is sent to the purified fuel gas buffer tank 18 for use as fuel gas.
[0025] The specific implementation process of this embodiment is as follows: First, the fuel gas composition and pressure data of the methanol purification process are analyzed. Then, at the opening of the pipeline after the second-stage separator of the coke oven gas compressor (opening pipeline diameter DN150), with the second-stage exhaust pressure at 0.35-0.4MPa, the first outlet valve 2, the second outlet valve 3, and the outlet drain valve 4 are added. Approximately 1000 Nm³ / h is drawn from each of these valves. The coke oven gas on the right is supplied with an activated carbon filter tank 17. The activated carbon filter tank 17 is equipped with an inlet valve 9 for the fuel gas desulfurization tank, an outlet valve 11 for the fuel gas desulfurization tank, and a secondary line valve 10 for the fuel gas desulfurization tank. This facilitates the disconnection of the activated carbon filter tank 17 from the fuel gas pipeline system for maintenance. The main function of the activated carbon filter tank 17 is to remove impurities such as hydrogen sulfide, oil, and naphthalene from the coke oven gas. The gas is then controlled by a shut-off valve 13 and sent to a purified fuel gas buffer tank 18 for use as fuel gas. This effectively reduces the workload of the coke oven gas compressor and lowers energy consumption.
