Definitions
- the present invention relates to the field of energy, and, more specifically, installations operating on the basis of combustion, gasification, or any other thermochemical process involving solid fuels.
- It relates more particularly to a method for securing a solid fuel combustion or gasification plant against fires, said plant comprising a solid fuel combustion hearth, this hearth being supplied, with solid fuel, by a supply system .
- It also relates to a solid fuel combustion or gasification plant equipped with means for implementing the aforementioned securing method.
- Industrial solid fuel combustion or gasification power stations for example, biomass combustion, present, as do gas or fuel oil thermal power stations, risks of fires. Even if, in solid fuel combustion or gasification plants, the risk of explosion is minimal, it still remains, due to the presence of dust and the possibility of leakage of combustible gas resulting from the pyrolysis of solid fuel. . In addition, one of the most risky areas of solid fuel combustion or gasification plants is the fuel supply. The fire can indeed spread in this zone, and go up in the supply system towards the fuel reserve and thus cause significant damage to the plant.
- Valve systems are the most widespread and certainly the oldest fire protection systems. They implement a hatch, pivoting around an axis, obstructing, if necessary, the passage between the hearth and the fuel supply.
- the patent document US2873703 illustrates this technology for a coal-fired power plant.
- guillotine systems are quite similar to clamshell systems.
- a major difference between the guillotine systems and the flap systems concerns the setting in motion of the hatch.
- guillotine systems it is a door guided in translation allowing the supply system to be separated into two distinct zones. It is essential to couple this type of system with a device that releases the biomass so as not to interfere with the travel of the hatch.
- the patent document FR2615931 describes such a system. It should be noted that, in a guillotine system, the guillotine is raised above the rest of the feed to prevent the firebreak system from being blocked by excess material. It is ultimately an “intelligent” system, which restarts automatically when the temperature drops below a threshold.
- Rotary systems consist of an assembly rotated around an axis inside the power system. Unlike the two previous systems, the rotary systems are sealed systems even during normal operating phases. These are valve-airlock type systems ensuring the distribution of the material and the sealing of the system.
- the patent document CN178166860 illustrates this technology. It describes a system consisting of an airlock valve located above a hopper to prevent backfire.
- thermocouple measures a temperature beyond the programmed threshold
- auger automatically starts up and the system injects water as long as the temperature is too high.
- the system thus sends wet biomass to the boiler.
- patent document EP3015136 describes a solution for detecting fire outbreaks in a storage of biomass thanks to a continuous air humidity analyzer.
- the biomass burns, the water contained in it evaporates, increasing the level of humidity in the air.
- the patent document CN106056824 concerns a redundant and intelligent solution for detecting and fighting the risk of fire in biomass power plants. It includes two different sensors: a first set of thermocouples in contact with the biomass and an infra-red camera also allowing detection of the start of a fire. The two sensors are connected to an intelligent system controlling an extinguishing device. This device can be used in three configurations according to the wishes of the operator: fully automatic, remotely controlled or manual.
- thermocouples directly installed in the biomass supply and connected to regulation valves which are themselves placed on a water injection system. When the thermocouples exceed the set value the valves open, injecting water into the biomass feed.
- Solid fuels are very irregular.
- the mechanical valve or guillotine systems are very often obstructed, preventing the correct isolation of the biomass.
- installing mechanical systems and adapting the power supply to them is often very expensive.
- Mechanical systems of the valve and guillotine types require regular maintenance and break down very easily. Rotating systems disrupt the proper supply of biomass, they are regularly responsible for jams and the formation of vaults. They are not suitable for irregular fuels.
- a firestop system must interact with the hearth as little as possible. It seems essential not to inject soaked biomass into it so as not to damage it or make it unavailable for too long a time.
- one problem that the invention proposes to solve is to provide a method for securing a solid fuel combustion or gasification plant comprising a solid fuel combustion hearth, said hearth being fed , solid fuel, by a supply system, which overcomes the aforementioned drawbacks of the prior art.
- the solid fuel comprises biomass, solid recovered fuels and/or waste
- the solid fuel supply system comprises at least one endless screw, the solid fuel being brought to the combustion hearth by said at least one endless screw;
- the supply system comprises a first worm screw positioned substantially horizontally with respect to the ground and a second worm screw positioned at the terminal end of the first worm screw, and the solid fuel is conveyed, from a fuel storage tank arranged upstream of the first endless screw to the combustion chamber arranged downstream of the second endless screw, by means of the first then the second endless screw;
- - for the formation of the fuel plug and for the creation of the empty fuel space in the fuel supply system said at least one endless screw is operated in reverse after having injected the liquid into the contained fuel in the fuel system;
- the solid fuel supply system of the plant further comprises one or more sensors, and the method further comprises a step according to which, by means of said sensors, a fire rising in the fuel supply system is detected ;
- the sensors are temperature sensors, CO 2 sensors, infrared sensors
- the proposed solution of the invention to the aforementioned problem has the second object of a solid fuel combustion or gasification plant secured against fires, for the implementation of the method as described above, comprising a fuel combustion hearth solid fuel, said hearth being supplied with solid fuel by a supply system, characterized in that it further comprises means for injecting a non-flammable liquid into the supply system, means for forming a fuel in the fuel supply system, and means for creating an empty fuel space in the fuel supply system.
- the supply system comprises at least one endless screw and at least one non-flammable liquid injector.
- the most risky phases of solid fuel combustion or gasification plants are the extinguishing phases.
- the fuel the oxidizer or the heat source, also called the trigger element.
- the heat source is present from the start-up phase of the installation until the total cooling of the plant which can take place several hours after the extinction. of it. It is very difficult for a solid fuel to be isolated from the air. Separating the oxidizer and the fuel under these conditions is not an conceivable solution.
- One objective achieved by the invention is therefore to insulate the fuel from the heat source to prevent any outbreak of fire. In the event that a fire is declared, the energy released by the reaction between the oxygen and the fuel maintains the combustion. To fight the fire, the invention makes it possible to deprive the reaction of one of these reagents by installing a fire barrier system.
- the method according to the invention is a complete method for preventing and combating the risk of fire, the main source of this risk being the rise of fire in a solid fuel supply system in a thermal power plant.
- This risk exists in particular in several cases, namely, when the plant is shut down in normal operation, or during a malfunction of the plant which may be due to - a technical problem with the extraction of fumes, - the use of fuel not suitable for the thermal power plant, - human error when controlling the power plant, or - a failure of the control/command system which causes the system to shut down, for example stopping the fuel supply or the draft fan.
- the invention relates in particular to a method for securing or protecting a thermal power plant of solid fuel combustion or gasification against fires.
- the solid fuel used in such plants is, in one example, biomass, solid recovered fuels (SRF) and/or waste such as household waste. These are then fuels whose structure and nature are not homogeneous. However, it may be other fuels, for example fossil fuels such as coal.
- Combustion power stations are thermal power stations, which produce electrical energy and/or thermal energy from a heat source, produced by the combustion of solid fuel in a combustion hearth.
- the combustion hearth 1 of a combustion plant 2 is supplied with solid fuel 3, by a supply system 4.
- the solid fuel supply system 4 comprises at least one endless screw 4-1, 4-2 and the biomass 3 is conveyed to the combustion hearth 1 by said at least one endless screw 4-1, 4-2.
- the feed system 4 comprises a first endless screw 4-1 positioned substantially horizontally relative to the ground and a second endless screw 4-2 positioned at the end of the first endless screw 4- 1, substantially vertically.
- the solid fuel 3 is conveyed from a storage tank 5 arranged upstream of the first endless screw 4-1 to the combustion hearth 1 arranged downstream of the second endless screw 4-2 using the first 4-1 and then the second 4-2 auger.
- the method according to the invention is characterized in that it comprises the steps below.
- a non-flammable liquid is injected into the fuel contained in the fuel supply system.
- This is, in one example, water.
- the injection is carried out by means of one or more injectors 6-1, 6-2, 6-3 distributed along the supply system and, in particular, along the first endless screw 4.1, namely the horizontal auger. These injectors are represented by arrows on the figure 1 .
- These injectors 6-1, 6-2, 6-3 form an extinguishing device installed on the power supply independent of the extinguishing means of the general fire-fighting system, which is generally present for all power plants.
- the non-flammable liquid injected wets the fuel 3 contained in the supply system and forms agglomerates of wet fuel, at the location of the injections of liquid.
- a plug 7 of fuel 3 is formed in the fuel supply system 4 .
- Such a plug 7 is shown schematically in figure 2B .
- the endless screw 4-1 is operated in reverse, that is to say in the opposite direction to its normal direction of operation.
- the wet fuel agglomerate does not move with the same speed through the auger as the fuel that has not been wetted.
- the fuel which has not been wetted, and which is located downstream of the wetted fuel, will settle on the agglomerate and the agglomerate itself will undergo compacting.
- the plug 7 results from the compaction of the agglomerate under the action of the reverse movement of the endless screw and the settling of the fuel downstream of the agglomerate.
- the hardness of the plug 7 obtained in the endless screw is of the order of that of a champagne cork. It is therefore very hard.
- a space 8 empty of fuel is created in the fuel supply system.
- This empty space 8 partly results from the settling of the non-wet biomass forming the plug 7, but also from the fact that the endless screw operates in reverse and that no fuel source is brought to the entrance of the endless screw.
- the solid fuel supply system of the plant further comprises one or more sensors.
- sensors are advantageously temperature sensors rated TC on the picture 3 , For thermocouple, CO 2 sensors, IR infrared sensors and/or humidity sensors.
- the plant is advantageously equipped with an automaton.
- the aforementioned sensors then communicate with said automaton.
- the automaton controls the steps of the method according to the invention, namely the injection of the non-flammable liquid into the fuel contained in the fuel supply system and/or the formation of the fuel plug in the supply system fuel and/or the creation of a fuel void in the fuel supply system.
- the aforementioned automaton is, in an exemplary implementation of the invention, the automaton ensuring the control and command of the plant. It is denoted Principal Control-Command PLC on the picture 3 .
- One function of this automaton is finally to make the sensors communicate with the fuel supply extinguishing device. It also allows alarms to be sent to the operator via the man-machine interface.
- the automaton triggers the extinguishing device of the biomass feed system.
- This extinguishing device comprises the means for bringing water to the injectors from the water supply and/or the public water network, and the means for controlling the rotation of the endless screws and in particular of the horizontal endless screw that reverses.
- the securing method according to the invention does not exclude the presence of a general security system.
- firefighting intended to allow fires to be extinguished throughout the plant.
- a general system operates on a power supply different from the particular combat system according to the invention described above and, preferably, on a back-up power supply in the event of a power cut. It is also composed of three parts communicating with each other.
- a system of sensors arranged throughout the plant for example, UV or IR sensors intended for the detection of fire on battery or temperature sensors, CO 2 or even 'humidity.
- sensors are placed at different locations in the plant where a fire risk has been identified, for example at the fuel storage location, at the level of the conveyors, on the smoke filtration system, at the level of the power electronics.
- the sensors are at least doubled.
- This automaton has a backup electrical power source and/or independent of the electrical network.
- This automaton autonomously manages the fire sensors and the triggering of fire alarm and extinguishing actions. It also communicates alarms to the control-command automaton managing the plant.
- the method according to the invention forms an effective fire-fighting system, which makes it possible both to prevent the risk of fire and to fight it if a fire breaks out.
- the fire risk is very present, but combustion is also the heart of the business and, consequently, the source of income. Faced with such an important issue, it is inconceivable that a technical or mechanical problem could jeopardize the entire installation.
- the method according to the invention makes it possible to prevent this risk.
- Fire prevention consists of a series of actions carried out automatically when the plant is shut down, which is the most risky phase. This shutdown can occur following a normal shutdown requested by an operator, or following a a sudden and/or unforeseeable incident due to human errors or technical failures.
- a preventive routine comprising two phases has been put in place.
- a first phase renders the fuel present in the supply system non-flammable. It can be an injection of water which soaks the fuel and makes it incombustible. THE fuel present in the conveyor cannot then catch fire.
- a second phase makes it possible to form a plug of fuel while creating an “empty” space of fuel. This makes it possible to limit the risks of fire or smoke rising via the supply system thanks to the wet fuel plug formed. This also serves as a double safety in case the first action fails. Indeed, the empty space limits the risk of fire rising and the fuel plug formed makes it possible to slow down the fire and reduce the supply of air to the combustion in progress.
- the plug formed is thus advantageously permanent until the total cooling of the plant. It will be evacuated to restarting it.
- said plant can automatically go into the so-called safety position when stopped in order to limit human, material and fire risks.
- the two preventive phases presented above are put in place, namely the injection of a liquid to make the fuel non-flammable and the implementation of an automatic sequence of the conveyor creating an empty space in fuel and a "plug" of fuel.
- the method according to the invention therefore has numerous advantages responding to the problems posed by the prior art.
- the entire corrective system is redundant. This repetition makes it possible not to jeopardize the entire installation for a simple technical problem or a fault in the sensors.
- the energy systems allowing the operation of the two preventive and corrective parts are totally differentiated. This makes it possible to maintain protection in the event of a power supply fault for either of them.
- the preventive system in particular the fuel system firebreak system, is a simple device suitable for solid fuels. Due to the absence of any additional mechanical element dedicated to the firebreak device, this system is very inexpensive and robust.
- the backfire prevention system is spatially limited to the fuel supply, which preserves the hearth of the plant.
- the plant can be shut down for two reasons: either the operator decides to shut down the plant and shuts it down via a Human-Machine Interface; either an incident occurs and triggers the implementation plant security. Under these conditions, an accelerated shutdown procedure is triggered in order to quickly cool the plant and cut off all fuel supply.
- steps are implemented in an automatic sequence of water injection and formation of a fuel plug.
- the vertical screw is stopped to stop the supply of fuel to the reactor.
- a solenoid valve opens to inject mains water into the auger to moisten the fuel.
- the horizontal auger moves back to create a plug of wet fuel while creating an empty space of biomass. Water is regularly injected to ensure that no fire rises.
- control-command sequence making it possible to spray the fuel and form the fuel plug during a normal shutdown is given in the flowchart shown in figure 4 .
- the sequence during an accidental stop will be close in terms of flowchart.
- the timings, the quantities of water injected and the recoil speeds of the screws will be different and depend on the fuel and the configuration of the plant.
- the plant according to the invention therefore comprises two completely independent and redundant corrective systems. These are the particular fire fighting system relating to the fuel supply and the general fire fighting system.
- the fuel supply being the most sensitive point, it is important to ensure redundancy of the fire protection system at this point.
- the particular fire fighting system of the present invention is as described herein. They are summarized below. The entire system runs on the power grid and has a battery system in case of a power outage.
- thermocouples that measure the temperature at three different points in the fuel system. They are fixed on the chute of the conveyor screw. These thermocouples are transmitters which communicate their information to the control-command of the plant.
- Level 1 alarm for the operator, no particular action.
- Level 2 opening of the solenoid valve used in the preventive system which is connected to the water network.
- Level 3 transmission of the alarm to the general fire safety PLC. This last level makes it possible to make a redundancy on the injection of water because the system triggered by the general fire safety automaton uses another source of water, namely an independent tank.
- This system consists of three parts. It is first of all a pipe fed by pressurized water from the drinking water network. It is then a solenoid valve communicating with the control-command system as well as a manual bypass valve, the latter allowing an operator to act directly and water the biomass even without electricity or without a PLC. if it detects a fire. Finally, it is a injection nozzle disposed directly inside the fuel supply system.
- the general fire-fighting system is part of a larger system for fighting against industrial risks such as the production of CO, CH 4 or H 2 .
- it comprises, according to the invention, three redundant and independent parts of the particular control system relating to the fuel supply. These three parts are presented below.
- UV/IR flame detectors To ensure the redundancy of the measurement which detects any flames.
- UV and IR sensors use 2 technologies, UV and IR, in order to increase the relevance of the measurement. They communicate their information to a independent safety automaton. They work with an internal battery.
- this automaton triggers the general extinguishing system of the power plant, warns the operator and the staff by an audible and visual signal, and transmits the alarm to the programmable industrial automaton.
- the automaton works thanks to an internal battery.
- This system is made up of different parts: - a reserve of 10 m 3 of water, the volume depending on the size of the plant and the storage areas; - a diesel pump to send water from the tank to the entire fire network; - a fire water network independent of the public water network and completely dedicated to this system, connected to the tank and the pump; and - a set of water injection nozzles positioned above each biomass store, fuel conveying system or other area with an identified fire risk.
- the pump starts automatically and sends water from the tank through the fire network.
- the water is then projected to all the places likely to be on fire. This makes it possible to be certain of sending water to the place of the fire but also to avoid a runaway effect.
- all the other zones likely to bring a load to the fire are moistened and inhibited.
