Technical Field
The invention relates to the technical field of energy recycling, in particular to a refrigeration absorbent and a waste heat driven absorption type deep refrigeration method.
Background
At present, a large amount of low-grade waste heat exists in the industrial production process, the low-grade waste heat mainly exists in the form of byproduct low-pressure steam, steam condensate or flue gas, and the waste heat is difficult to recycle through the prior art due to the characteristics of low temperature and low pressure, cannot be directly discharged into the environment, and can be only treated in a circulating cooling water cooling mode. On the other hand, the industrial production process often has a large amount of refrigerating capacity demands below zero, and the existing process often adopts an electrically driven screw compressor unit to refrigerate to meet the process demands, consumes a large amount of electric energy, and simultaneously, the freon refrigerant adopted by the screw compressor has serious damage to the environment and is not in line with the development direction of future green environmental protection.
Patent document No. CN107339822A discloses a system and method for utilizing waste heat of steam condensate, in which multiple waste heat utilization technologies are provided, one of which is a waste heat deep refrigeration technology, but the heat utilization efficiency is low, and only refrigerating fluid at-20 ℃ to-25 ℃ can be prepared. The reasons for the low heat utilization efficiency are: in the implementation of waste heat deep refrigeration, liquid ammonia is evaporated from an evaporator to achieve the purpose of refrigeration and then directly returns to an absorber, so that the temperature of the liquid ammonia is lower after the liquid ammonia is converted into ammonia vapor through heat exchange in the evaporator, the transmission efficiency is lower, and the fusion rate with lean solution is low; in addition, an important reason is that the solution of the multi-element ammonia salt is prepared by a traditional formula, the specific heat capacity of the solution is high, the thermal conductivity of the solution is low, and finally the heat recovery efficiency is low.
