    Syngas purification technologies for various pollutants in syngas were mainly reviewed, and the technologies can be classified into hot and cold gas purification according to different treatment methods and different treatment temperatures. For solid particulate pollutants, physical removal is used for both hot and cold gas purification; for tar treatment, physical separation is generally used for cold gas purification, while the methods such as adding catalysts during high-temperature thermal cracking or gasification process are used in hot gas purification; based on a good water-solubility of nitrogenous pollutants, most of cold gas purification technologies use water, acid or organic solvents to absorb directly, while hot gas purification usually uses catalytic oxidation; compared with nitrogenous pollutants, cold gas purification for sulfurated pollutants, not only can use liquid solvents to absorb, but also can use solid adsorbents such as porous carbon materials to absorb, and metal oxides are considered to have good adsorption properties for sulfurated pollutants at high temperatures. For chlorine compounds removal, cold gas purification is applied through following two mechanisms, such as ammonium chloride (NH4Cl) deposition and absorption of hydrogen chloride (HCl) vapor, hot gas purification is applied through metals depositing with halides as halide salts.

    A novel compressed carbon dioxide (CO2) energy storage system based on gas-liquid phase change was proposed to promote the development of large-scale and high-efficiency energy storage technology. The overall pressure level of the proposed system is lower than the critical pressure of CO2, which effectively reduces the difficulty of component manufacturing and improves the economic performance of system. Thermodynamic and economic analyses of the system were carried out and results show that the energy storage efficiency of system is 65.35% under typical design conditions and the investment payback period is about 5.50 years. The results of exergy analysis show that the maximum exergy destruction belongs to turbine which is 1.23 MW, and the evaporator has the minimum exergy efficiency which is 9.41%. The results of parameter analysis show that increasing the CO2 condensation temperature, compressor isentropic efficiency and turbine isentropic efficiency, or decreasing the temperature difference between the cold end and hot end of heat exchanger 2, and the temperature difference between the cold end of heat exchanger 3, can improve the energy storage efficiency and shorten the investment payback period of the proposed system.

At present, the technology is still in the stage of research demonstration at home and abroad. By systematically sorting out the basic characteristics of biomass fuels, the characteristics of biomass oxygen-enriched combustion and related engineering research status were high lighted, and its development trend of this technology was analyzed.

    In order to study the changes in levelized cost of energy and cost of electricity supply after the carbon capture, utilization and storage (CCUS) retrofit of a coal-fired power station, the current development trend of the electricity-carbon market was summarized and analyzed, and a simulation model was built to show the cost and benefit of CCUS application for 660 MW coal-fired power station. A sensitivity analysis was carried out using the cost of carbon capture cost and carbon trading price as variables. Results show that the predicted levelized cost of energy of the thermal power units after CCUS retrofit will fall to the range of 20% upward fluctuation of the regional coal trading benchmark price between 2034 and 2035. After 2039, the change rate of levelized cost of energy before and after the transformation will be negative, which means that the levelized cost of energy after transformation will be lower than the target of levelized cost of energy before transformation. In addition, although the carbon capture cost and carbon trading price will have more or less impacts on levelized cost of energy and power supply cost, the coupling effect of carbon capture cost and carbon trading price still has good economic results in the future for the CCUS retrofit projects of the thermal power units.

    During chemical looping combustion, oxygen carrier plays a crucial role as the carriers of oxygen and heat. Design of oxygen carrier has always been the emphasis and difficulty in chemical looping technology research. Chemical looping combustion usually occurs in a fluidized bed reactor. Since the chemical stress caused by chemical reactions has the greatest contribution rate to the abrasion of oxygen carrier, the life of oxygen carrier is significantly shortened and the effective components run away. From the perspective of oxygen carrier structure design, the anti-abrasion mechanism of different composite oxygen carriers was qualitatively evaluated. The core-shell structure inhibits the phase separation of the active components and avoids the deactivation of oxygen carrier caused by surface abrasion of the active components. The addition of Al2O3 fiber and "rivet" inhibits crack growth and slows down the abrasion of the material. The addition of fuel ash improves the skeleton strength of the composite oxygen carriers, and the resistance to abrasion and slagging aggregation of oxygen carriers. The synergistic effect of the composite oxygen carrier increases the reactivity and slows down the sintering agglomeration phenomenon. From the perspective of abrasion dynamics and service life, the abrasion conditions of different oxygen carriers were quantitatively compared. By logarithmically fitting of the Gwyn abrasion dynamics equation, fitting parameters K and n of different oxygen carriers were calculated, which reflects the abrasion mechanism and abrasion patterns.

    To achieve effective integration of renewables and reduce the instantaneous power fluctuations of wind power, a hybrid energy storage system (HESS) combining lithium battery-based energy storage and flywheel-based power storage was used to stabilize wind power fluctuations. Firstly, the improved k-means algorithm was used to obtain the typical daily data, and empirical mode decomposition (EMD) was used to disassemble it to obtain the HESS flattening task. Based on the comprehensive consideration of power capacity and charging-discharging efficiency constraints of various energy storage systems, a coordinated HESS energy management system was constructed. Moreover, with the minimum costs of hybrid energy storage system and wind power opportunity compensation as the objective function, a baseline variable and fluctuation penalty coefficient were introduced for correction, and a HESS capacity allocation model for stabilizing wind power fluctuations was developed. Finally, with the actual grid-connected data, a configuration scheme with optimized smoothing effect and economic performance was obtained. Results show that the cumulative under-compensation of wind power in the proposed configuration scheme is reduced by 91.8%, and the economic performance is increased by 49.99%. The optimal wind-storage ratio is 1∶0.16, of which the flywheel and lithium battery is 1∶4.65.

    Gas turbine combined cooling, heating and power (CCHP) technology has excellent development and application prospects. However, there are many problems such as low efficiency in partial load operation, strong coupling of thermal-electrical output and inflexible regulation of thermoelectric ratio etc. To solve these problems, a novel CCHP system based on gas turbine and constant-pressure compressed air energy storage (CAES) was developed. The thermodynamic models of components such as the compressor, combustion chambers, turbine, waste heat boiler, heat exchanger, injector and water pumps/turbine, were developed and used to analyze the operational characteristics of the CCHP system under an extraction-release gas flow regulation strategy. Results show that when the extraction-release coefficient is between 0 and 0.2, the CCHP system has a thermoelectric ratio regulating range of 0.58-2.27. During the variable load operation process, the primary energy utilization rate of the CCHP system changes within the range of 58.1%-59.5%, and the exergy efficiency is no less than 32.2%. For the developed CCHP system, the high comprehensive energy efficient and flexibility can be achieved under wide operating conditions.

On this basis, the effects of average temperature difference in charging process, temperature difference of pinch point in discharging process and lower storage temperature of molten salt on system performance parameters were studied. Results show that with a fixed temperature difference of 10 K of the charging process, increasing the temperature difference of pinch point from 5 K to 15 K, the maximum equivalent round-trip efficiency reduces from 88.2% to 85.0%, and the optimal heat storage temperature will increase from 314 ℃ to 324 ℃. With fixed pinch point of 10 K, the round-trip efficiency decreased from 89.5% to 85.8% when the average temperature difference of the charging process increased from 5 K to 15 K. With both temperature differences of 10 K, the maximum equivalent round-trip efficiency is 87.1%, and the minimum load of the unit is reduced from 30% to 24.3%.

By using SimaPro software, LCA was carried out in the stages of biomass harvesting, biomass direct combustion power generation, production of CH4 and H2, transportation and utilization of CH4, to identify the main environmental impact categories at each stage, and a comparative analysis of the environmental impact potentials between corn stalks and rice straw was performed. Results show that marine aquatic toxicity, global warming, freshwater aquatic toxicity and acidification are the more prominent environmental impact categories. In terms of marine aquatic toxicity, the rice straw power-to-gas technology is 2.8 times higher than the corn stalks power-to-gas technology.

    The effect of channel height on the thermal-hydraulic performance of airfoil fin printed circuit heat exchangers(PCHEs) was investigated by numerical method based on the impact of channel geometry. Results show that channel height significantly affects the compactness, resistance, and heat transfer performance of PCHE. Under the same Reynolds number (Re=6 000-14 000), the Fanning friction factor f first decreases and then increasesas with the channel height H decreases (i.e., the ratio of channel height to transverse pitch H/ST=0.12-0.60), with the lowest f observed at H/ST=0.24. The Colburn-j factor j shows no significant change for airfoil fin channels with H/ST=0.24-0.60, while an increase in j is observed at H/ST=0.12. The ratio j/f is suitable for evaluating the comprehensive performance of airfoil fin channels with different heights. When using j/f as the comprehensive performance evaluation indicator, the airfoil fin channel with H/ST=0.24 exhibits the best overall performance.

    Extreme weather events become more frequent because of climate change, posing a threat to the security and stability of the electricity system. Current researches about strategic reserve generation units mainly focus on policy evaluations or modelling simulations from the perspective of unit costs and power sale income, which do not adequately account for the economic and social effects they can bring. In order to comprehensively analyze the economics of strategic reserve generation units, a cost-benefit analysis model was established from the perspective of the whole society, considering the benefits including the guarantees for the economic production, health benefits for residents and labor force level, and the costs of strategic reserve generation unit investment and operation, and Sichuan power restriction event was taken as a case study for analysis. Results show that the benefit for 1 kW·h electricity that can be brought by the strategic reserve generation units is 4.77 yuan/(kW·h) and the required costs for 1 kW·h electricity generated by building new strategic backup units and using units that are close to retirement were about 1.91 yuan/(kW·h) and 0.47 yuan/(kW·h), respectively. Thus it is economically feasible to build and operate the strategic reserve generation units from the whole society perspective. At the same time, the operating hours are the most critical factor affecting the cost of strategic reserve generation units, and if the operating hours are less than 89 hours in a year, the unit's cost of electricity will be higher than its social benefits.

    Based on the dynamic mesh technique, the vortex-induced vibration of wind turbine airfoil at 90° angle of attack was numerically studied by using the prescribed vibration method and the free vibration method respectively. Through the prescribed vibration calculation method, the vortex-induced vibration range of Du96-W-180 wind turbine airfoil at different amplitudes was determined, and the effects of changing the incoming flow velocity and changing the structural stiffness on the vortex-induced vibration range were compared. Through the free vibration calculation method, the vortex-induced vibration range of the airfoil at different inflow speeds was obtained. The influence of different structural damping on the vibration response of the airfoil at the frequency ratio r=0.93 and r=1.11 was compared, and the development and evolution process of the vortex-induced vibration of the airfoil were analyzed. Results show that vortex-induced vibration range at different frequency ratios is basically the same while changing incoming flow velocity and changing the structural stiffness. The free vibration numerical simulation verifies the vortex-vibration range of the forced vibration. When 6% structural damping is applied at different frequency ratios, the vibration of the airfoil exhibits two forms: vortex-induced vibration and forced vibration.

    A thermal economic mathematical model was established for a 300 MW supercritical carbon dioxide (SCO2) partially cooled cycle and partially cooled reheated cycle coal-fired power generation system. Using cycle thermal efficiency ηt, system exergy efficiency ηex and levelized electricity cost CLCOE as evaluation indicators, to conduct thermal economic comparative analysis on different systems and key parameters. Results show that under design conditions, ηt is 0.33% higher and ηex is 0.35% higher at partial cooling reheat cycles compared to partial cooling cycles. Under the same parameter conditions, the coal consumption cost of both generator units exceeds 70%, and the boiler cost is much higher than the cost of other equipments. There exists optimal inlet pressure for the main compressor, such that ηt and ηex reach the maximum, while CLCOE reaches the minimum. As the inlet temperature of the main compressor increases, ηt and ηex gradually decrease, while CLCOE gradually increases. ηt and ηex increase linearly with the increase of turbine inlet temperature, while CLCOE first decreases and then increases.

    Due to its unique advantages of large storage scale and without limitation by geographical conditions, liquefied air energy storage (LAES) can participate in peak-regulation transformation of existing coal-fired power units to promote the construction and development of new power systems. Therefore, a novel LAES system coupled with coal-fired power unit was proposed, and the thermodynamic and economic models of the coupling system were established to analyze the influence of the change of energy storage capacity on the coupling system. Results show that a 44.2 MW/176.8 MW·h LAES system can be selected for comprehensive considerations when coupling with a 670 MW coal-fired unit.Considering three low-load (30%THA, 40%THA, and 50%THA) conditions for the coal-fired power unit,the round-trip efficiency of the coupling liquefied air energy storage system is about 51%, which is about 9 percentage points higher than that of the independent LAES system. The rate of return on investment of the coupling LAES system is close to 10%, and the investment can be recovered within 14 years. The sensitivity analysis results show that it is beneficial to improve the economic performance of the system through enlarging the difference between peak and valley electricity prices.

    In order to improve the peak regulation capacity of combined heat and power (CHP) units and realize the thermoelectrolytic decoupling of the unit by using the heat network heat storage, the dynamic simulation models of a 350 MW cogeneration unit and its heat supply network system were established. The dynamic characteristics of the heat supply network and its heat users during the heat storage/release process and the influence of ambient temperature on the peak regulation capacity of the unit were studied. Results show that the lag time of the heat user increases with the increase of its distance from the first heat exchange station, and it is also directly affected by the heat load of itself and indirectly affected by the heat load of the other heat users. The relative heat storage/release power of the heat supply network first changes rapidly and then changes slowly after the change of the extraction steam flow rate. The temperature of the heat user changes approximately linearly, and its change rate increases with the increase of the variation range of the extraction flow rate, and the starting time of change is also advanced. The maximum peak regulation capacity of the unit increases slightly with the decrease of ambient temperature. When the ambient temperature decreases from 0 ℃ to -15 ℃, the peak regulation capacity of the unit increases from 23.8 MW to 29.7 MW. Increasing the heat storage time and the heat storage temperature and decreasing the heat release temperature can improve the peak regulation capacity of the unit.

    Aiming at the problems that traditional vibration sensor is not easy to install and the acoustic signal analysis is easily interfered by environmental noise, an anomaly detection method for audio signal was used to test the running state of the rolling bearings based on Mel-Frequency cepstral coefficients(MFCC) and Mahalanobis distance weighting support vector data description (MDE-SVDD). In this method, MFCC was extracted from the running sound signal of bearings as the feature vector, and then Mahalanobis distance weighting was used to improve SVDD, so as to enhance the anti-interference of noise samples and improve the detection accuracy of the algorithm. Gaussian white noise of various intensities was added to the experimental sound signal to simulate the field noise environment, and the test results of the proposed method were compared with traditional anomaly detection methods such as SVDD. Results show that the anomaly detection accuracy of MDE-SVDD reaches 91.99% in the scene of low signal-to-noise ratio by -5 dB, which is 7.73% higher than that of the traditional SVDD model.

    A cooperative control strategy of deep deterministic policy gradient (DDPG) and proportion integration differentiation(PID) based on multidimensional state information and segmental reward function optimization was proposed for the selective catalytic reduction(SCR) denitrification system with large inertia and multi-disturbance. Addressing the problem of low strategy learning efficiency of the DDPG algorithm caused by the partially observable Markov decision process (POMDP) in the SCR denitrification system, the multidimensional state information of the SCR denitrification system was designed firstly. Secondly, the segmented reward function of the SCR denitrification system was designed. Finally, a DDPG-PID cooperative control strategy was designed to achieve the control of SCR denitrification system. Results show that the designed DDPG-PID cooperative control strategy improves the strategy learning efficiency of the DDPG algorithm and the control effect of PID.

    By means of equal volume wetting, cellulose with different crystallinity was loaded with 1-butyl-3-methylimidazolium chloride ([Bmim]Cl) ionic liquid, and cellulose and regenerated cellulose samples loaded with ionic liquids were obtained. The pyrolysis behavior of ionic liquid-loaded cellulose with different crystallinity was investigated in a fixed-bed reactor, and the three-phase products of biochar, biooil, and biogas were analyzed. Results show that the process of cellulose regeneration can destroy the internal crystal structure, making the amorphous region larger and making dehydration easier to occur. When the pyrolysis temperature is 275 ℃, compared with cellulose, the regenerated cellulose with lower crystallinity can promote the production of volatiles and inhibit the production of solid carbon, and the liquid yield and solid yield will change from 48.23% and 48.81% to 55.7% and 37.67%, respectively. However, at high temperature of 300-350 ℃, the opposite is true. Loading ionic liquid can promote the production of substances such as LGO, with a maximum yield of 16.1%. High crystallinity can promote the catalytic effect of ionic liquid on LGO.

    A new thermochemical energy storage material with lower cost and better performance was prepared, and the feasibility of its application in buildings was explored. The easily mined volcanic rocks in Yunnan area were used as the matrix. Two preparation schemes were proposed that MgCl2 and CaCl2 were combined with either raw volcanic rocks or pickled volcanic rocks powder and were repressed into blocks. These prepared materials were nominated as stone-MgCl2, stone-CaCl2, block-MgCl2 and block-CaCl2, respectively. Their characterization, differential scanning calorimetry (DSC) analysis, economic analysis and feasibility analysis were conducted. Results show that the main pore structure of raw volcanic rocks is macropore (the pore size>100 nm), which can be easily filled by hydrated salts. The thermochemical energy storage density of stone-CaCl2, stone-MgCl2, block-CaCl2 and block-MgCl2 is 641 kJ/kg, 983 kJ/kg, 440 kJ/kg and 733 kJ/kg, respectively. The energy storage cost of prepared stone-CaCl2 and stone-MgCl2 is as low as 0.010 7 yuan/kJ and 0.017 4 yuan/kJ, respectively. Comparing with the existing materials, they have obvious advantages in the view of economy. When they are combined with renewable energy, these prepared materials have obvious potential for pollutant reduction and are also suitable for the northern regions with high heating demand.

    Wheat straw and Indonesian lignite were used as the raw material, the combined oxygen carrier (OC) CuFe2O4 with spinel structure was prepared. The reactivity of the prepared CuFe2O4 combined OC and the synergistic behavior of the co-gasification of wheat straw-Indonesian lignite were studied on the tailored multifunctional reactor with four operation influencing factors being concentrated, including the mixing mass ratio of wheat straw to the lignite, gasification temperature, CuFe2O4 OC excess coefficient and steam input amount. Results show that during chemical looping gasification (CLG) of wheat straw-lignite with CuFe2O4 OC,Cu-Fe ingredients involved in CuFe2O4 promote oxygen transfer and elevate its reactivity. Meanwhile, the carbon conversion and cold gas efficiency (CGE) for the co-gasification of wheat straw-lignite are much higher than those of the single fuel, thus desirable high quality of the gasification products can be produced. Furthermore, the optimized operational factors are determined, including gasification temperature at 950 ℃, OC excess number around 0.2, steam input volumetric flow rate with 0.125 mL/min and the mixed mass ratio of the wheat straw to lignite at 1∶1. Thereby, the syngas yield peak reaches 1.262 m3/kg with H2/CO ratio of 1.69, the carbon conversion of 89.7%, and the syngas selectivity of 63.2%.

    To explore the effect of biomass components such as cellulose, hemicellulose and lignin on physical properties of pellets, cotton stalk and wood sawdust were mixed with their components at different mass ratios to prepare the pellets. The apparent density and compressive strength of pellets were analyzed by electronic universal material testing machine. The biomass molecular structure before and after briquetting was analyzed by X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy. Results show that the compressive strength of pellets is directly affected by cellulose, meanwhile hemicellulose and lignin mainly act as binders to improve the compressive strength of pellets indirectly. The addition of cellulose or hemicellulose to cotton stalk significantly increases the C—OH functional group in its pellets, and C=C functional group is formed, which are conducive to form the intermolecular force and increase the stability of molecular structure. They can enhance the physical properties of pellets.

    To enhance the quality of biomass gasification products, briquettes of eucalyptus bark and corn stalk were used as the typical feedstocks for the fluidized bed gasification experiments. Rice husks and sawdust were selected for comparison. Gasification experiments were conducted on a pilot-scale fluidized bed to obtain the optimal air equivalence ratio values for rice husks, sawdust, and the briquettes of eucalyptus bark and corn stalk. The causes of slagging during biomass briquettes gasification were analyzed. Results show that the optimal air equivalence ratio value for briquettes of eucalyptus bark, rice husks and sawdust is 0.20, and the gas heating values of the three biomass are 5.5 MJ/m3, 5.5 MJ/m3 and 6 MJ/m3 respectively, the corresponding gasification efficiencies are 60%, 45% and 52%. While the optimal air equivalence ratio value of corn stalk briquette is 0.24, which means requiring more air due to the high ash content and low heating value. The gas heating value of corn stalk briquettes is 4 MJ/m3, and the gasification efficiency is 35%. The increase in gasification temperature promotes the gasification reaction of various biomass. Biomass briquettes with high concentration of alkali and alkaline earth metals are more susceptible to slagging during gasification.

    The large-scale development and grid-connection of offshore and onshore wind power poses challenges to the stability of the power grid, and microgrid is an effective way to address the optimal operation of the distributed generation systems. Comprehensive considering the system operation economy and carbon emission environmental benefits of the microgrid cluster, a low-carbon day-ahead scheduling model for the interactive microgrid cluster based on distributed shared energy storage was proposed. Firstly, a pricing strategy was proposed based on the traditional real-time pricing to follow the net load of the microgrid, considering the uncertainty of wind power. Subsequently, the user satisfactions to price-based and incentive-based demand responses were defined according to the load characteristics of the microgrid users. Then, the stepped carbon trading mechanism was introduced to construct the carbon emission cost model, and the carbon emission chains of the system operation were partitioned by the life cycle assessment. Finally, the distributed energy storage resources were utilized for day-ahead optimal scheduling, based on the interactive operation of the microgrid cluster. The simulation example shows that the proposed interactive scheduling model eliminates the previous wind curtailment issue, and reduces the carbon emission by 32.14 t and the total system operation cost by 15.05%, compared with the independent microgrid cluster.

    In order to solve the problem of collaborative low-carbon optimal scheduling of integrated energy system (IES) with multiple types of energy storage (MTES), a two-layer model of low-carbon economy of multiple types of energy storage-integrated energy system (MTES-IES) was developed. Moreover, by building the hydrogen energy hub to make full use of the heat energy lost in the process of hydrogen conversion, and the energy utilization efficiency of the whole system was increased by cascade utilization of energy. In the two-layer optimization model, the upper layer aims at the economic optimization of MTES system, and the lower layer realizes the optimal low-carbon economic operation of IES. The Karush-Kuhn-Tucher (KKT) condition was used to transform the lower model into the constraints of the upper model, and the large M method was used to linearize the problem. Three different scenarios were simulated and analyzed. Results show that the proposed MTES-IES two-layer model can reduce the operating cost of the system and realize the overall low-carbon operation of the system by coordinating and optimizing the operation and scheduling strategies of different subsystems.
