Liquefied Natural Gas (LNG) has become an important strategic reserve energy source due to its advantages of cleanliness, environmental protection, and the like. At present, China has become the largest natural gas entry country in the world, wherein imported LNG accounts for 53% of the total natural gas supply. In 2018, the total amount of LNG imported in China is nearly 5400 ten thousand tons, the ratio is increased by 41.2%, the net import increment is 1600 ten thousand tons, which accounts for 59.26% of the global increment and is the first in the world. In the future, China is still the country with the strongest LNG market demand, and the LNG import capacity of China is expected to be doubled within five years.
The LNG is a low-temperature (-162 ℃) liquid mixture which is formed by deacidifying and dehydrating low-pollution natural gas and freezing and liquefying the low-temperature natural gas through a low-temperature process, the LNG needs to be gasified through a gasifier at an LNG receiving station for use, and according to measurement and calculation, the gasification process of each ton of LNG is equivalent to the release of 830MJ to 860MJ of cold energy. At present, China is developing energy conservation and emission reduction greatly, LNG cold energy is recycled, LNG production cost is reduced, the policy of China for energy conservation and emission reduction is met, and the method has important significance today when fossil energy is gradually reduced and the demand is gradually increased.

However, the system does not realize the cascade utilization of the cold energy, and the utilization rate of the cold energy is lower. Chinese patent CN105545390A liThe circulating working medium is heated by the coal-fired waste gas, the LNG is used for cooling the circulating working medium, the LNG cold energy is used for generating power, meanwhile, the LNG after heat exchange with the circulating working medium re-cools the coal-fired waste gas after heat exchange with the circulating working medium, and CO is realized2And (4) liquefying. The method realizes the cascade utilization of cold energy by jointly using the LNG cold energy and the waste heat of the coal-fired waste gas, but the method has poor process flexibility, and can be used in LNG power generation systems or CO2When the liquefaction system breaks down, the whole process flow is stopped, and the application under various working conditions cannot be well realized.

The gaseous C2C3 refrigerant with the pressure of 0.2MPa and the temperature of minus 19 ℃ enters a first heat exchanger to exchange heat with the pressurized low-temperature natural gas, the temperature is reduced to minus 61 ℃ and liquefied, the low-temperature liquid C2C3 refrigerant is pressurized to 1.1MPa by a pressurizing pump, the temperature is increased to minus 60 ℃ and then is divided into two streams, one stream enters a fourth heat exchanger, the other stream enters a sixth heat exchanger to exchange heat with the gaseous C3 from a data center and a refrigeration house respectively, the temperature of the liquid C2C3 refrigerant is increased to minus 24 ℃, the refrigerant enters a fifth heat exchanger to be heated to 60 ℃ by hot water with the normal pressure and the temperature of 70 ℃ and gasified, the refrigerant enters an expansion generator to expand to generate power, the expansion is increased to 0.2MPa, the temperature is reduced to minus 19 ℃, and then the C2C3 enters the.
The low-temperature liquid C3 refrigerant of 0.2MPa and-32 ℃ coming out of a C3 refrigerant storage tank is divided into two streams, wherein one stream enters an eighth heat exchanger to exchange heat with a 30 wt% CaCl2 aqueous solution of-5 ℃ from a cold storage, the temperature is raised to-10 ℃ and gasified, and the other stream enters a seventh heat exchanger to exchange heat with a 30 wt% CaCl2 aqueous solution of 12 ℃ from a data center, the temperature is raised to-10 ℃ and gasified; the gaseous C3 refrigerant after heat exchange in the data center is divided into two streams, one stream enters a sixth heat exchanger to exchange heat with the low-temperature C2C3 refrigerant of 1.1MPa and-60 ℃ after being pressurized by a second mixed refrigerant pressurizing pump, and the temperature is reduced to-32 ℃ and liquefied; the second strand is merged with gaseous C3 refrigerant from a refrigerator and then divided into 3 strands; one stream enters the second heat exchanger to exchange heat with the low-temperature natural gas from the first heat exchanger, the other stream enters the third heat exchanger to exchange heat with the low-temperature natural gas, and the liquefied low-temperature natural gas enters the C3 refrigerant storage tank after being liquefied. The third part enters a fourth heat exchanger to exchange heat with the low-temperature C2C3 refrigerant of 1.1MPa and-60 ℃ pressurized by the second mixed refrigerant pressurizing pump, the temperature is reduced and liquefied, and the liquefied refrigerant is converged with the liquid C3 refrigerant from the C3 refrigerant storage tank and enters the next circulation.

At this time, the gaseous C3 from the data center does not enter the sixth heat exchanger to exchange heat with the C2C3 refrigerant for liquefaction, but directly joins the gaseous C3 from the cold storage area, and enters the third heat exchanger to exchange heat with the LNG. In addition, as the flow of the gaseous C3 entering the third heat exchanger is increased, the opening degree of the eighth flow regulating valve needs to be increased to maintain the normal cooling of the data center and the refrigeration house; therefore, although the production of the cold energy power generation area is stopped, the C3 refrigerant can still provide cold energy for the refrigeration house and the data center, and the normal operation of the rest areas is ensured.
When the data center area process is in an abnormal working condition, only the seventh flow regulating valve needs to be closed to stop the single-component refrigerant from entering the seventh heat exchanger to exchange heat with the secondary refrigerant; and the ninth flow regulating valve is closed to reduce the heat exchange quantity of the single-component refrigerant circulation loop, so that the normal operation of the refrigeration house and the cold energy power generation area can be ensured. At this time, the liquid C3 refrigerant is not divided, and is completely sent to the cold storage area to exchange heat with the brine.
When the cold storage area is in an abnormal working condition, the normal operation of the data center and the cold energy power generation area can be ensured only by closing the fifth flow regulating valve to stop the single-component refrigerant from entering the eighth heat exchanger to exchange heat with the secondary refrigerant and closing the ninth flow regulating valve to reduce the heat exchange quantity of the single-component refrigerant circulation loop.
