Gas turbine facility and method for suppressing discharge of ammonia from gas turbine facility
A gas turbine facility includes: a gas turbine; an ammonia supply device that supplies ammonia to a combustor of the gas turbine; a flow path forming frame forming an exhaust gas flow path through which exhaust gas from the gas turbine flows; a sprinkling device having a sprinkler that sprinkles water into the exhaust gas flow path; and a sprinkling controller that controls an operation of the sprinkling device.

2. The gas turbine facility according to claim 1 ,
wherein the sprinkling controller instructs the sprinkling device to stop sprinkling the water after a predetermined time has elapsed after receiving the instruction to start the supply of the ammonia or the instruction to stop the supply of the ammonia, and
an end time point of the predetermined time is a time point after a time point at which unburned ammonia is expected to be no longer exhausted from the gas turbine.
3. The gas turbine facility according to claim 1 , further comprising:
a water recovery line that guides a liquid including the water sprinkled into the exhaust gas flow path to an outside of the flow path forming frame.
4. The gas turbine facility according to claim 3 , further comprising:
a mist eliminator that collects mist,
wherein the flow path forming frame has a duct connected to the gas turbine,
a duct gas flow path forming at least a part of the exhaust gas flow path is formed in the duct,
the sprinkler is disposed in the duct gas flow path and is configured to sprinkle the water toward a downstream side of a flow of the exhaust gas in the duct gas flow path,
the mist eliminator is disposed downstream of the sprinkler in the duct gas flow path, and
the water recovery line is connected, in the duct, to a position downstream of the mist eliminator in a flow direction of the exhaust gas or to a region where the mist eliminator is disposed in the flow direction of the exhaust gas.
5. The gas turbine facility according to claim 3 ,
wherein the flow path forming frame includes a duct connected to the gas turbine and a stack connected to the duct,
a stack gas flow path that forms at least a part of the exhaust gas flow path and that extends in a vertical direction is formed in the stack,
the sprinkler is disposed in the stack gas flow path and is configured to sprinkle the water in a direction having a horizontal component, and
the water recovery line is connected to a position below a position where the sprinkler is disposed in the stack.
6. The gas turbine facility according to claim 3 ,
wherein the sprinkling device includes a water tank that stores the water to be sprinkled in the exhaust gas flow path, and a water supply device that supplies the water in the water tank to the sprinkler, and
the sprinkling controller controls the water supply device.
7. The gas turbine facility according to claim 6 , further comprising:
a denitration apparatus that is disposed upstream of the sprinkler in a flow direction of the exhaust gas in the exhaust gas flow path and that removes a nitrogen oxide in the exhaust gas; and
an ammonia water supply device that supplies the water in the water tank to the denitration apparatus,
wherein the water recovery line is connected to the water tank,
the water tank is provided with an ammonia concentration meter that detects an ammonia concentration in the water tank, and
the ammonia water supply device supplies the water in the water tank to the denitration apparatus when the ammonia concentration detected by the ammonia concentration meter becomes equal to or higher than a predetermined concentration.
8. The gas turbine facility according to claim 6 , further comprising:
an acid supply device that supplies an acid which produces a salt via reaction with the ammonia into the water tank; and
a treated water supply device that guides the water in the water tank to a wastewater treatment device,
wherein the water recovery line is connected to the water tank,
the water tank is provided with a salt amount detector that detects an amount of the salt in the water tank, and
the treated water supply device guides the water in the water tank to the wastewater treatment device when the amount of the salt detected by the salt amount detector becomes equal to or more than a predetermined amount.
9. A method for suppressing discharge of ammonia from a gas turbine facility, the gas turbine facility including a gas turbine having a combustor, an ammonia supply device that supplies ammonia to the combustor, and a flow path forming frame forming an exhaust gas flow path through which exhaust gas from the gas turbine flows, the method comprising:
performing a sprinkling step of sprinkling water into the exhaust gas flow path,
wherein, in the sprinkling step, sprinkling the water into the exhaust gas flow path is started on condition that an instruction to start supply of the ammonia to the combustor from the ammonia supply device or an instruction to stop the supply of the ammonia is received.
10. The method for suppressing discharge of ammonia from a gas turbine facility according to claim 9 ,
wherein, in the sprinkling step, after a predetermined time has elapsed after receiving the instruction to start the supply of the ammonia or the instruction to stop the supply of the ammonia, sprinkling the water into the exhaust gas flow path is stopped, and
an end time point of the predetermined time is a time point after a time point at which unburned ammonia is expected to be no longer exhausted from the gas turbine.
