[0055] The following description, with reference to the accompanying drawings, describes a method and apparatus for arranging a pipeline system according to embodiments of the present disclosure.

[0056] Figure 1 is a schematic flowchart of a pipeline system layout method provided in an embodiment of this disclosure.

[0057] As shown in Figure 1, the method includes the following steps:

[0058] Step 101: Determine the application scenario of the pipeline to be installed, and design the pipeline installation according to the application scenario to determine the pipeline installation scheme; wherein, different application scenarios correspond to different pipeline installation schemes.

[0059] In this embodiment of the disclosure, it is necessary to predetermine the pipeline installation scheme, and the pipeline installation scheme should correspond to the application scenario. Through the pipeline installation scheme, the design parameters of each pipeline system (such as pressure, temperature, flow rate, flow velocity, etc.) can be reasonably determined, and the complete set of pipelines, accessories and pipeline supports can be designed and determined according to the latest version of the national standard.

[0060] Since flue gas duct layout technology plays a crucial role in multiple industrial sectors, including thermal power generation, chemical industry, and metallurgy, the application scenarios encompass various scenarios within these sectors. When determining the application scenario for the duct to be installed, the following factors must be considered: Industry characteristics: Different industries generate exhaust gases with varying compositions, temperatures, and humidity levels. Environmental requirements: Emission requirements must be determined based on the environmental standards of the factory's location. Space constraints: The existing building and equipment layout of the factory must be considered to ensure reasonable duct installation.

[0061] Meanwhile, each industrial sector corresponds to a general pipeline installation scheme, while different application scenarios within an industrial sector correspond to different detailed pipeline installation schemes. For example, in the industrial sector of thermal power generation, the application scenario involves high-temperature flue gas emissions (such as boiler rooms, steel mills, and other high-temperature environments). Specifically, this disclosure does not limit the industrial sector or application scenario.

[0062] Regarding general pipeline installation schemes for industrial applications, for example, when the industrial application is thermal power generation, the general pipeline installation schemes include, but are not limited to: (1) using high-temperature and corrosion-resistant materials, such as stainless steel or fiberglass pipes; (2) using overhead or underground methods, depending on the terrain and space conditions; (3) setting reasonable pipeline routes to reduce the number of bends and reduce resistance loss; and (4) installing compensators to address pipeline thermal expansion issues.

[0063] When the industrial sector is the chemical industry, the general pipeline installation scheme includes, but is not limited to: (1) selecting corrosion-resistant and high-strength materials, such as plastic composite pipes or steel pipes lined with anti-corrosion materials; (2) setting up corresponding pretreatment devices according to the composition of the waste gas, such as spray towers, activated carbon adsorption towers, etc.; (3) using flange connections with good sealing performance to ensure no leakage; (4) reserving inspection ports and monitoring points to facilitate daily maintenance and monitoring.

[0064] When the industrial sector is the metallurgical industry, the general pipeline installation scheme includes, but is not limited to: (1) selecting wear-resistant and high-temperature resistant materials, such as wear-resistant ceramic steel pipes; (2) setting up cooling devices according to the exhaust gas temperature to reduce the pipeline operating temperature; (3) adopting a modular design to facilitate quick installation and disassembly; and (4) strengthening supports and fixing measures to ensure stable pipeline operation.

[0065] The design scheme for flue gas duct installation (duct installation plan) must fully consider factors such as industry characteristics, environmental requirements, and space constraints. By selecting appropriate materials, optimizing duct layout, and setting up pretreatment devices and monitoring points, the stability, safety, and reliability of the duct system can be ensured, meeting the high standards of modern industry for flue gas treatment.

[0066] Step 102: Select materials according to the pipeline installation plan to determine the target pipeline and target accessories; wherein, the pipeline installation plan is at least used to determine the target pipeline and target accessories based on the transportation medium in the application scenario.

[0067] In this embodiment of the disclosure, the target pipe is the pipe used to lay out the piping system, and the target fitting is the fitting used to lay out the piping system, such as: supports, flanges, screws, etc. Specifically, the target pipe and the target fitting need to be obtained according to the pipe installation scheme designed in the actual application process, and this embodiment of the disclosure does not impose any restrictions.

[0068] When selecting materials, the corrosion and wear of the transport medium on the pipeline system should be fully considered, and appropriate pipe materials (such as carbon steel pipes, rubber-lined steel pipes, stainless steel pipes, alloy steel pipes and fiberglass pipes, etc.), valves and accessories should be selected.

[0069] Specifically, regarding the selection of materials, for example: 1. High-temperature flue gas emission scenario: (1) Material selection: Select high-temperature resistant alloy steel or stainless steel pipes, such as 304 or 316 stainless steel. (2) Target pipe: Ensure that the pipe has good thermal expansion performance and strength at high temperatures. (3) Target accessories: Including high-temperature resistant elbows, flanges, valves, etc., the material should be the same as the pipe or have higher temperature resistance.

[0070] 2. Corrosive gas emission scenario: (1) Material selection: Use corrosion-resistant plastic or fiberglass materials, such as polyvinylidene fluoride (PVDF) or polytetrafluoroethylene (PTFE). (2) Target pipeline: The inner wall of the pipeline should be smooth to reduce the corrosive effect of the medium on the pipeline. (3) Target accessories: Including corrosion-resistant valves, flanges, expansion joints, etc., the material should be compatible with the pipeline.

[0071] 3. Dust particulate matter emission scenario: (1) Material selection: Select steel pipes with strong wear resistance, such as wear-resistant cast steel or pipes lined with wear-resistant materials. (2) Target pipe: The pipe should have sufficient wall thickness and wear resistance to withstand the wear of particulate matter. (3) Target accessories: Including wear-resistant elbows, tees, valves, etc., and wear-resistant linings can be added if necessary.

[0072] 4. Material handling and fitting adaptation: (1) Material handling: According to the characteristics of the medium, the pipes and fittings are surface treated, such as anti-corrosion coating, heat treatment, etc. (2) Fitting adaptation: Ensure that the size, pressure rating and connection method of all fittings match the pipes to meet the system operation requirements.

[0073] This disclosure provides methods for selecting materials and determining fittings for flue gas ducts in different industrial application scenarios. By analyzing the characteristics of the transported medium, we can select appropriate duct materials and fittings to ensure the stable operation and long-term durability of the pipeline system. In actual operation, material selection and processing should be strictly carried out in accordance with this guideline according to the specific application scenario and medium characteristics to achieve the best installation effect.

[0074] Step 103: Based on the target pipeline and the target fittings, the pipeline system is arranged according to the pipeline installation plan; wherein the pipeline installation plan includes at least pipeline layout parameters and pipeline layout conditions.

[0075] In this embodiment of the disclosure, the pipeline installation scheme includes key parameters and conditions for pipeline layout, which are the basis for ensuring the efficient and safe operation of the pipeline system.

[0076] The pipeline layout parameters include at least the following: Pipeline diameter: determined based on the expected gas flow rate and velocity. Pipeline length: determined based on the actual plant layout and equipment location. Pipeline routing: considering terrain, building structure, and equipment limitations, selecting the shortest path and minimizing the number of bends. Pipeline inclination: to ensure smooth gas flow and avoid liquid accumulation, a certain degree of inclination is usually required.

[0077] The pipeline layout conditions include at least the following: Environmental conditions: Considering factors such as temperature, humidity, and corrosivity, select appropriate pipeline materials and anti-corrosion measures. Safety requirements: Ensure the pipeline system meets national and industry safety standards, including fire prevention and explosion protection. Ease of maintenance: The pipeline layout should facilitate daily inspection, cleaning, and maintenance. Economy: While meeting technical requirements, consider cost-effectiveness and optimize materials and construction plans.

[0078] Specifically, the overall process of the pipeline system layout method described in this disclosure embodiment can be implemented in, but is not limited to, the following ways: 1. Design stage: Determine the preliminary layout scheme of the pipeline system based on the process flow and equipment layout. Calculate parameters such as pipeline diameter, length, and direction, and make preliminary material selection. 2. Scheme optimization: Simulate and evaluate the preliminary design scheme to optimize the pipeline layout. Consider factors such as thermal expansion, vibration, and support of the pipeline system, and adjust the layout parameters. 3. Construction preparation: Prepare construction drawings and technical specifications based on the final determined pipeline layout scheme. Determine the construction methods and sequence, and prepare the required materials and equipment. 4. Construction implementation: Install the pipelines according to the construction drawings and technical specifications. Ensure that the construction quality of pipeline connections, supports, corrosion protection, etc., meets the requirements. 5. Commissioning and acceptance: After the pipeline installation is completed, conduct system commissioning to check the airtightness and operating status of the pipelines. The pipeline system can only be put into formal operation after passing the acceptance.

[0079] This disclosure provides detailed steps and precautions for the layout and processing of industrial flue gas duct systems. By following the layout parameters and conditions in the duct installation plan, the design of the duct system can be ensured to be reasonable, the construction to be standardized, and the operation to be safe. In actual operation, the layout plan should be flexibly adjusted and optimized to adapt to the specific conditions and needs of the site.

[0080] Step 104: Continue until all the target pipes and target fittings are arranged in the predetermined positions to complete the layout of the piping system.

[0081] In this embodiment, the predetermined placement location refers to the specific installation location of each component (i.e., target pipes and target fittings, such as pipes, fittings, equipment, etc.) in the system, which is determined during the design phase. The predetermined placement location is determined based on a comprehensive consideration of the following factors: System design requirements: including design drawings of the flue or piping system, system functional requirements, fluid dynamics characteristics, etc. Engineering practice: based on past engineering experience, determining the optimal installation location of the components to ensure system stability and efficiency. Safety standards: ensuring that the arrangement of components complies with relevant safety standards and specifications to avoid potential safety risks. Operation and maintenance: considering the convenience of daily operation, maintenance, and repair of the components. Space constraints: considering the spatial layout within the building or facility, the relative position of other equipment, etc. The predetermined placement location is the pre-determined placement location of the pipes and fittings. The pipe installation scheme includes the predetermined placement location. After all target pipes and target fittings are arranged according to the pipe installation scheme, the pipe system layout is completed.

[0082] The pipeline system layout method provided in this disclosure determines the application scenario of the pipeline to be installed, and designs the pipeline installation according to the application scenario to determine the pipeline installation scheme; different application scenarios correspond to different pipeline installation schemes; material selection is performed according to the pipeline installation scheme to determine the target pipeline and target accessories; the pipeline installation scheme is at least used to determine the target pipeline and target accessories based on the transport medium in the application scenario; the pipeline system is arranged according to the target pipeline and target accessories using the pipeline installation scheme; the pipeline installation scheme includes at least pipeline layout parameters and pipeline layout conditions; the pipeline system layout is completed until all the target pipelines and target accessories are arranged to the predetermined layout positions. Compared with related technologies, the embodiments of this disclosure, by determining the required pipelines and accessories based on the transport medium in the application scenario and accurately determining the pipeline layout parameters and pipeline layout conditions, can improve the stability and safety of industrial production by arranging flue gas pipelines with accurate pipeline system parameters.

[0083] In one possible implementation of this disclosure, when designing a pipeline installation scheme, the following methods can also be used, but are not limited to: determining the pipeline type and the corresponding pipeline material of the pipeline system in the application scenario based on the transport medium in the application scenario; determining the pipeline layout parameters of the pipeline system in the application scenario based on preset parameter standards in the application scenario; the pipeline layout parameters include at least pressure parameters, temperature parameters, flow rate parameters, and flow velocity parameters; determining the pipeline layout conditions of the pipeline system in the application scenario based on preset load standards in the application scenario; wherein, the pipeline layout conditions include at least the load and stress borne by the pipeline system, and the pipeline installation scheme includes at least the pipeline type, the pipeline material, the pipeline layout parameters, and the pipeline layout conditions.

[0084] In this embodiment of the disclosure, when setting up the pipeline installation scheme, it is necessary to reasonably determine the design parameters of each pipeline system (such as pressure, temperature, flow rate, flow velocity, etc.), and design and supply complete sets of pipelines, accessories, and pipeline supports according to the latest version of national standards. During pipeline design, the corrosion and wear of the working medium on the pipeline system should be fully considered, and appropriate pipe materials (such as carbon steel pipes, rubber-lined steel pipes, stainless steel pipes, alloy steel pipes, and fiberglass pipes), valves, and accessories should be selected. The layout of pipelines and accessories must meet the requirements of flue gas bypass construction and operation and maintenance, and should avoid collisions with other facilities. The characteristics of the materials used should be specified at the connection points between pipelines and other pipelines or equipment.

[0085] In one possible implementation of this disclosure, the pipe type includes high-temperature flue gas pipe, special substance pipe, steam / condensate pipe, instrument air pipe, miscellaneous gas pipe, process water pipe, cooling water pipe, drinking water pipe, and fire-fighting water pipe.

[0086] In the embodiments of this disclosure, the pipeline system exhibits a variety of pipeline types: Pipeline systems come in many forms, and different pipeline types can be selected based on different applications and the characteristics of the transported medium. For example, there are high-pressure natural gas pipelines for transporting gases, chemical pipelines for transporting liquids, and powder pipelines for transporting solid particles, etc.

[0087] Since the entire pipeline system may contain multiple types of pipes, and different types of pipes can be used to transport different transport media, and different transport media use different pipe materials, it is necessary to specify the types of pipes in the pipeline system.

[0088] In one possible implementation of this disclosure, the pipe materials corresponding to the pipe type include, but are not limited to: the pipe material corresponding to the high-temperature flue gas pipe is stainless steel or alloy seamless steel pipe; the pipe material corresponding to the special substance pipe is seamless stainless steel pipe; the pipe material corresponding to the steam / condensate pipe is seamless steel pipe; the pipe material corresponding to the instrument air pipe is stainless steel pipe; the pipe material corresponding to the miscellaneous gas pipe is stainless steel pipe; the pipe material corresponding to the process water pipe is stainless steel pipe; the pipe material corresponding to the cooling water pipe is stainless steel pipe; the pipe material corresponding to the drinking water pipe is galvanized steel pipe or UPVC pipe; and the pipe material corresponding to the fire water pipe is galvanized steel pipe.

[0089] In the embodiments of this disclosure, different transport media have different physical and chemical properties, such as temperature, pressure, corrosivity, toxicity, and viscosity. These properties determine that the pipeline material must be able to meet the transport requirements of the specific media.

[0090] Depending on the characteristics of the transported medium, appropriate pipeline materials must be selected. Common media and their corresponding pipeline materials include, but are not limited to: Water: Stainless steel, cast iron, PVC, or PE are commonly used, as these materials meet general water quality requirements. Natural Gas: High-pressure natural gas pipelines typically use high-strength steel to ensure pipeline safety under high pressure. Oil: Pipelines transporting oil and its products require corrosion-resistant steel, such as chromium-molybdenum alloy steel. Chemicals: The selection of pipeline materials for transporting various chemicals is more complex and may include stainless steel, polytetrafluoroethylene (PTFE), fiberglass, etc., depending on the type and corrosiveness of the chemicals. High-Temperature Media: Pipelines transporting high-temperature media require high-temperature resistant materials, such as stainless steel, alloy steel, or ceramics.

[0091] Therefore, this disclosure utilizes different types of pipelines to transport different transport media, and the different transport media require different pipeline materials. This ensures the safety, reliability, and economy of the pipeline system, which is a crucial factor that must be considered in pipeline system design and construction. Correct material selection not only prevents media leakage and environmental pollution but also extends the service life of the pipeline and reduces maintenance costs.

[0092] In one possible implementation of this disclosure, when determining the pipeline layout conditions, the following methods may be used, but are not limited to: performing thermal expansion displacement calculation on the pipeline system to obtain the target displacement, and performing stress calculation on the pipeline system to obtain the bearing stress; determining the force and torque of the pipeline system acting on the preset equipment based on the target displacement and the bearing stress; and obtaining the pipeline layout conditions when it is determined that the force and torque are within the preset force range.

[0093] In this embodiment of the disclosure, the arrangement of the piping system (including various supports and hangers) should be able to withstand various loads and stresses. Therefore, it is necessary to calculate the thermal expansion displacement and stress of all major pipes and ensure that the forces and moments of the pipes acting on the equipment are within the specified range.

[0094] Among the requirements for pipeline layout are the requirements for bearing loads and stresses. Pipeline systems are subject to various loads and stresses during operation, including but not limited to: their own weight, the pressure of the transported medium, stresses caused by temperature changes, and loads from external environments (such as wind and earthquakes). The layout of the pipeline system, including the pipes themselves and their supports, must be able to withstand these loads and stresses to ensure the stability and safety of the system.

[0095] The function of pipe supports (the target accessories include pipe supports): They are an important component of the piping system, used to support the weight of the pipe, limit pipe displacement, and absorb pipe vibration. A proper arrangement of pipe supports ensures that the piping system maintains the correct position and shape under various operating conditions.

[0096] Regarding the calculation of thermal expansion displacement and bearing stress, thermal expansion refers to the expansion of pipelines due to temperature increases when transporting hot media. This expansion leads to an increase in pipeline length, and failure to calculate and control this displacement may result in pipeline deformation, joint leaks, or even structural damage. Bearing stress calculation involves calculating the stress generated by thermal expansion in the pipeline to ensure that the stress levels of the pipeline and connecting components are within the material's tolerance range.

[0097] Regarding force and torque control at equipment interfaces (i.e., the forces and torques acting on the pre-installed equipment), the following limits apply: Forces (including thrust and tension) and torques in the piping system must be controlled within the range specified at the equipment interface. Excessive forces or torques may damage the equipment, affecting its normal operation and lifespan.

[0098] Preset force range: Equipment manufacturers usually specify the force and torque requirements at the interface. Pipeline design must follow these requirements and ensure the reasonable distribution of these forces by properly arranging the pipeline and selecting appropriate supports and hangers.

[0099] In one possible implementation of this disclosure, when arranging the pipeline system, the following methods may also be used, but are not limited to: identifying each target pipeline in the pipeline system to determine the pipeline identifier corresponding to each target pipeline in the pipeline system; wherein the pipeline identifier includes at least the transport medium in the target pipeline and the flow direction of the transport medium; and arranging the pipeline system based on preset construction and maintenance rules.

[0100] In this embodiment of the disclosure, all pipelines should be clearly marked to indicate the medium inside the pipeline and the flow direction. The layout of pipelines and accessories must meet the requirements for flue gas bypass construction and operation and maintenance, and should avoid collisions with other facilities.

[0101] Regarding pipeline identification, the purpose of identification is to clearly identify the function, content, location, and role of each target pipeline in the pipeline system.

[0102] Pipeline markings should include at least the following information: 1. Transport medium: Indicate the type of substance being transported in the pipeline, such as water, steam, natural gas, chemicals, etc. 2. Flow direction: Indicate the direction of flow of the medium in the pipeline, usually indicated by arrows and text.

[0103] The functions of pipeline marking include at least the following: Construction guidance: During pipeline construction, markings help construction personnel install pipes correctly, avoiding confusion and incorrect connections. Maintenance convenience: During system maintenance and repair, clear pipeline markings can quickly guide maintenance personnel to the target pipeline, improving work efficiency and safety. Safety warning: For pipelines transporting hazardous media, markings can also serve as safety warnings, reminding personnel of potential risks.

[0104] The aforementioned pre-defined construction and maintenance rules are formulated based on industry standards, engineering practices, and safety requirements to guide the design and construction of pipeline systems. When arranging the pipeline system, the rules to be followed include at least: determining the specific location and direction of each pipeline according to pipeline markings; considering factors such as pipeline support and hanger installation, thermal expansion compensation, and bending radii; ensuring the spacing between pipelines and compliance with regulations regarding crossing buildings and public facilities; and operating according to markings during construction and maintenance to ensure correct media flow and safe system operation.

[0105] This embodiment of the disclosure identifies each target pipeline in the pipeline system and combines it with preset construction and maintenance rules to ensure that the pipeline system is reasonably laid out, safe to operate, and easy to maintain. This helps to improve the overall performance and reliability of the pipeline system, while reducing errors and risks during construction and maintenance.

[0106] In one possible implementation of this disclosure, the pipeline installation scheme further includes, but is not limited to: the connection method between the pipeline system and the equipment, wherein the connection method includes at least a flange connection between the pipeline system and the equipment; the inspection and maintenance scheme and the insulation installation scheme for the target pipeline and the target fittings in the pipeline system.

[0107] In this embodiment, the layout and support design of all piping should facilitate inspection, maintenance, and insulation installation. Short flanged fittings should be provided at equipment connections to reduce piping disassembly work required for maintenance.
