Description

Technical Field

Background
In view of the dual pressure of energy shortage and environmental pollution, renewable energy power generation technology is being developed at home and abroad. However, renewable energy sources, such as solar energy, wind energy, etc., have a fatal problem of discontinuous and unstable energy supply, which brings a great obstacle to the practical process. Another key issue is how to store the surplus electric energy in the renewable energy system when the renewable energy is sufficient for use when the system is not sufficiently powered.
The regenerative fuel cell energy storage/supply system is divided into a proton exchange membrane electrolytic cell and a fuel cell. The proton exchange membrane electrolytic cell has the advantages of high current density, reproducibility, no pollution, high starting speed and the like, belongs to an efficient and clean energy utilization and storage device, and has an energy storage function. The specific working principle is as follows: connecting a regenerative hydrogen-oxygen fuel cell with a power generation device, and electrolyzing pure water by using redundant electric energy by using a proton exchange membrane electrolytic cell in a system during the electricity consumption valley period to generate hydrogen and oxygen which are respectively stored in a hydrogen and oxygen storage device; when the electricity consumption is in a peak period, the hydrogen and the oxygen are introduced into the fuel cell to generate chemical reaction to generate electric energy to supplement the power supply, and the surplus electric energy in the renewable energy system can be stored to be used when the system is insufficient in power supply. The hydrogen can be stored separately for energy storage and used as fuel energy storage.

Specifically, when the high-pressure proton exchange membrane electrolyzer 1 works, high-pressure aqueous solution mixed with oxygen is discharged from the anode exhaust hole 1b, the high-pressure aqueous solution enters the liquid inlet of the first jet vacuum pump 3a, so that negative pressure is formed in the first jet vacuum pump 3a, the aqueous solution in the water tank 2 enters the first jet vacuum pump 3a through the liquid suction port of the first jet vacuum pump 3a under the action of the negative pressure and is mixed with the high-pressure aqueous solution, then the aqueous solution is discharged from the liquid discharge port of the first jet vacuum pump to the first gas-liquid separator 4a, and the aqueous solution after oxygen separation by the first gas-liquid separator 4a enters the anode water inlet 1 a; meanwhile, the high-pressure aqueous solution mixed with hydrogen is discharged from the cathode exhaust port 1d, and enters the liquid inlet of the second jet vacuum pump 3b, so that negative pressure is formed in the second jet vacuum pump 3b, the aqueous solution in the water tank 2 enters the second jet vacuum pump 3b under the action of the negative pressure and is mixed with the high-pressure aqueous solution, and then is discharged from the liquid outlet of the second jet vacuum pump 3b to the second gas-liquid separator 4b, and the aqueous solution after oxygen separation by the second gas-liquid separator 4b enters the cathode water inlet 1 c.
