摘要

In this work,a model of hydrogen production by double chemical looping is introduced.The efficiency benefit obtained was investigated.The chemical looping hydrogen generation unit is connected in series to the downstream of a chemical looping gasification unit as an additional system for 100 MW·h coal gasification,with the function of supplementary combustion to produce hydrogen.Using Aspen Plus soft-ware for process simulation,the production of H2 and N2 in the series system is higher than that in the independent Chemical looping gasification and Chemical looping hydrogen generation systems,and the production of hydrogen is approximately 25.63％ and 12.90％ higher,respectively;The study found that when the gasification temperature is 900 ℃,steam-carbon ratio is 0.84 and oxygen-carbon ratio is 1.5,the hydrogen production rate of the system was the maximum.At the same time,through heat exchange between logistics,high-pressure steam at 8.010 × 104 kg·h-1 and medium-pressure steam at 1.101 × 104 kg·h-1 are generated,and utility consumption is reduced by 61.58％,with utility costs decreasing by 48.69％.An economic estimation study found that the production cost of ammonia is 108.66 USD·(t NH3)-1.Finally,cost of equipment is the main factors influencing ammonia production cost were pro-posed by sensitivity analysis.
