AI Technical Summary
In coal chemical plants, the heat generated during methanol synthesis is difficult to utilize effectively, resulting in the boiler feedwater consuming a large amount of medium and low-pressure saturated steam, which cannot be connected to the steam network, causing energy waste and high energy consumption.
Design a methanol synthesis power generation and refrigeration combined unit. By combining a gas-cooled reactor, a circulating gas heat exchanger, a water-cooled methanol reactor, an ORC turbine power generation system and a refrigeration cycle system, the by-product electricity and low-temperature cooling energy of the methanol synthesis reaction heat boiler water are generated, avoiding the difficulty of integrating the by-product saturated steam into the steam pipeline network.
This technology effectively utilizes the heat of methanol synthesis reaction, by-product electricity, and low-temperature cooling, thereby improving the efficiency of the unit's operation, avoiding energy waste, and reducing energy consumption.
