Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This utility model relates to the field of PSA hydrogen production technology, and in particular to a coal chemical PSA hydrogen production device. Background Technology
[0002] The coke manufacturing process typically generates a certain amount of raw coal gas, which contains core components such as hydrogen, carbon monoxide, nitrogen, carbon dioxide, and methane. Therefore, raw coal gas is gradually being effectively utilized as a new energy source. In the raw coal gas hydrogen production process, pressure swing adsorption (PSA) technology is usually the core, producing qualified, high-purity hydrogen. For large-scale raw coal gas hydrogen production, PSA is usually divided into two stages. One stage concentrates the hydrogen concentration; this stage is called the hydrogen enrichment stage. The other stage is called the purification stage. In the enrichment stage, the converted feed gas is passed through a specific adsorbent to remove some impurities from the process gas, thereby increasing the hydrogen concentration. The adsorbent is regenerated generally by methods such as depressurization or backwashing to release the adsorbed impurities.
[0003] Existing coal chemical PSA hydrogen production units suffer from inaccurate internal pressure control, leading to unstable operation of the secondary PSA.
[0004] Therefore, a coal chemical PSA hydrogen production unit is proposed to solve the problems mentioned above. Utility Model Content

[0024] The technical solutions of the present utility model will be clearly and completely described below with reference to the accompanying drawings of the embodiments of the present utility model. Obviously, the described embodiments are only some embodiments of the present utility model, and not all embodiments.
[0025] In the description of this utility model, it should be understood that the terms "upper", "lower", "front", "rear", "left", "right", "top", "bottom", "inner", "outer", etc., indicate the orientation or positional relationship based on the orientation or positional relationship shown in the accompanying drawings. They are only for the convenience of describing this utility model and simplifying the description, and do not indicate or imply that the device or element referred to must have a specific orientation, or be constructed and operated in a specific orientation.

[0026] Example 1: A coal chemical PSA hydrogen production unit, such as Figures 1-5 As shown, it includes a preparation cylinder 1, with a cylinder cover 9 installed at the bottom and top of the preparation cylinder 1. The top of the cylinder cover 9 is equipped with an air pressure regulating mechanism, and the outside of the preparation cylinder 1 is wrapped with an insulation sleeve 6.
[0027] The air pressure regulating mechanism includes an regulating cylinder 16, a connecting cylinder 13 fixed in the middle of the top of the cylinder cover 9, the bottom end of the regulating cylinder 16 tightly inserted into the interior of the connecting cylinder 13, and a pressure relief hole 18 opened on its surface. A connecting plate 11 is fixed to the top of the regulating cylinder 16, and electric push rods 10 are installed at both ends of the connecting plate 11.
[0028] In use, a connecting cylinder 13 is installed at the top of the cylinder cover 9, and an adjusting cylinder 16 is installed at the top of the connecting cylinder 13. A pressure relief hole 18 is provided on the surface of the adjusting cylinder 16. Thus, the raw material enters the preparation cylinder 1 from the feed pipe 3, and the preparation operation is carried out. The hydrogen produced by the preparation is discharged from the discharge pipe 5. During the process, the preparation cylinder 1 is kept warm by the insulation sleeve 6. Moreover, the pressure inside the preparation cylinder 1 is monitored by the pressure gauge 4. When the pressure inside the preparation cylinder 1 is too high, the connecting plate 11 and the adjusting cylinder 16 are raised and lowered by the electric push rod 10, thereby adjusting the number of pressure relief holes 18 exposed at the top of the connecting cylinder 13. This allows the gas pressure inside the preparation cylinder 1 to be discharged outward from the pressure relief hole 18, reducing the internal pressure of the preparation cylinder 1. In this way, the internal pressure of the preparation cylinder 1 can be regulated, and explosion-proof pressure relief can be performed inside the preparation cylinder 1.
[0029] Example 2: A coal chemical PSA hydrogen production unit, such as Figures 1-5 As shown, a connecting ring 7 is fixed to the top of the preparation cylinder 1, a first sealing ring 17 is bonded to the bottom of the cylinder cover 9, the bottom of the cylinder cover 9 is pressed against the top of the connecting ring 7 with the first sealing ring 17, and a bolt 8 is connected between the top edge of the cylinder cover 9 and the connecting ring 7.
[0030] Both the connecting cylinder 13 and the adjusting cylinder 16 are cylindrical structures and are vertically arranged. The pressure relief holes 18 are evenly distributed on the surface of the adjusting cylinder 16. The bottom end of the adjusting cylinder 16 is connected to a second sealing ring 20, which is tightly connected to the inside of the connecting cylinder 13.
[0031] The connecting plate 11 is set horizontally, and the electric push rod 10 is fixed vertically to the top of the cylinder cover 9.
[0032] The surface of the connecting plate 11 has a connecting hole 19, through which a connecting rod 12 slides. The connecting rod 12 is vertically arranged, and a stop block 22 is fixed at its bottom end. A spring 21 is sleeved on the surface of the connecting rod 12 between the stop block 22 and the connecting plate 11. The gap between the connecting rod 12 and the adjusting cylinder 16 is set on both sides.
[0033] A third sealing ring 14 is fitted onto the surface of the adjusting cylinder 16 and at the top of the connecting cylinder 13. An abutment ring 15 is connected to the top of the third sealing ring 14. An abutment block 22 abuts against the top of the abutment ring 15. The abutment ring 15 is a circular ring structure and is horizontally slidably fitted onto the surface of the adjusting cylinder 16.
[0034] A mounting plate 2 is fixed to the bottom of the preparation cylinder 1, a feed pipe 3 is connected to the bottom of its side, a discharge pipe 5 is connected to the top of the side of the preparation cylinder 1, and a pressure gauge 4 is fixed to the bottom of the surface of the discharge pipe 5.
[0035] In use, the preparation cylinder 1 can be opened and closed by means of the cylinder cover 9, the first sealing ring 17 and the bolt 8. At the same time, a second sealing ring 20 is provided at the internal connection between the regulating cylinder 16 and the connecting cylinder 13, and a third sealing ring 14 is provided at the external connection between the regulating cylinder 16 and the connecting cylinder 13. This can maintain the sealing and pressure of the preparation cylinder 1. The inside of the preparation cylinder 1 can be cleaned and maintained by opening and closing the cylinder cover 9. It can also prevent leakage of the preparation cylinder 1, which would make it difficult to accurately control the internal pressure of the preparation cylinder 1. This facilitates the control of the internal pressure of the preparation cylinder 1 and is beneficial to the hydrogen production of the preparation cylinder 1.
[0036] The above are merely preferred embodiments of this utility model, but the scope of protection of this utility model is not limited thereto. Any equivalent substitutions or modifications made by those skilled in the art within the scope of the technology disclosed in this utility model, based on the technical solution and inventive concept of this utility model, should be included within the scope of protection of this utility model.
