The specific embodiment
Specific embodiments of the invention provide the method and system of the waste products in a kind of transmission, cooling, storage and the unloading thermal conversion processes.In a specific embodiment, thermal conversion processes is that gasification and waste products are the ashes that is produced by gasification.In another specific embodiment, the biomass fuel that uses in gasification is the compound of carpet waste and wood chip, and for example U. S. application number 11/052,634 is described.
I. exemplary thermal conversion processes and biomass fuel
Gasification can be used for producing steam, for example is fit to the employed steam of steam turbine.Gasification is (surpassing 1, the 000 ℉) synthesis gas that the solid biomass fuel thermal cross over is become to comprise the heat of fire gases, and fire gases is methane, hydrogen, carbonic oxide and/or other gas for example.In gasification, or solid biomass fuel converts in the gas process, may not have the oxygen of sufficient amount that living beings are fully burnt.
The purpose of gasification is compared with operating condition with the purpose of incinerator with final process operating mode can be significantly different.In incinerator, the purpose solid feed within incinerator that is fully to burn.On the other hand, the purpose of gasification is to be created in the gas that use in the place beyond the gasifier, and the control gasifier discharges and improves any influence to environment.In addition, the ash that produces in the gasification is being handled in garbage bury subsequently as side production, and it is the employed gasification of dependence of inertia biologically, or is not a large amount of toxin sources at least.Gasification can cause wide variety of materials to reduce, and reduce in such so that garbage bury space that needs.Therefore gasification can have many environmental benefits.
In one aspect, textile material has backing, and for example carpet can be used as the biomass fuel that gasifies.The term " carpet " that uses among the application can comprise and anyly become article by the material manufacture of at least two kinds of different types, and a kind of material is that fabric or other coating and another kind of material are synthetic materiaies, for example rubber or poly-mer.For example, the ground carpet that can comprise standard of the scope of carpet, ground mats, wallcovering, mat or the like, and the carpet waste of industry with separate the carpet waste after the already used consumption.
Can provide carpet waste with the form of harness to system.General, harness is to reduce the end product that material occupies the compression process of volume by increasing density and weight.Harness is typically to tie with belt or wire rod to prevent the separation of harness material.Harness can be shape rectangle, square, circle or that have other.The harness carpet can be so that transporting and moving of waste material carpet becomes easy.Garbage bury owner and/or operator also can provide the carpet harness to reduce the power of the required volume of garbage bury.Selectable, carpet is a loosely, is not compact.
Carpet waste can be the chopping and basically or major part be divided into carpet chip and carpet fiber.For the carpet originating firm, the carpet chip has the value of raw material, and the carpet chip is deletrious for gasification, because almost there is not the actv. calorific value.Therefore, the carpet chip removes and stores and can have economic, benefit environment and/or process and be worth.Main carpet chip can move to first bunker of storage in first waste products stream.Main carpet fiber can be used as biomass fuel, and is independent or partially mixed with another biomass fuel.Can use biomass fuel to produce synthesis gas and the heat ash that produces as side production by gasifier.Subsequently, synthesis gas may be used for producing generating, for example passes through in gas turbine or synthesis gas burner section and the boiler any one.
The ash that is produced by gasification can move in second waste products stream, moves to second bunker of storage usefulness.The described first and second waste products streams can be different, main like this flowing the carpet chip of isolating and flow the ash of isolating with second waste products with first waste products keeps independently state at least always, is cooled to up to ash till the fusing point of about carpet chip.
Use carpet waste can produce many benefits as the biomass fuel of gasification.For example, the use that produces the waste material carpet of suitable steam can reduce the dependence to other energy, for example coal and natural fuels, and it is restricted in supply side.In addition, between pneumatolytic stage, expend quite most of waste material carpet and act as a fuel and to reduce the cumulative volume of the waste material carpet product that finally is buried in the rubbish.Therefore, the present invention can provide the steam generation process of routine or the environmental benefit that carpet processing method kind is lacked.
Application number is the exemplary scheme drawing that 11/052,634 U.S. Patent application has been showed gasification system.
II. exemplary transmission, cooling, storage and uninstalling system
The specific embodiment of the invention relates to and does not a kind ofly have or do not have under the sprinkling situation of water, can transmit, cools off, stores and unload the method and system of ash safely.In initial grey auger loader, ash can utilize to have the auger loader with screw auger with central aisle that cold glycol/water mixtures passes through and cools off indirectly, ash passes through roll crusher or roll crusher then, roll crusher or roll crusher fragmentation the ashes of smouldering.Rotary air lock can allow the components downstream of system to pressurize with nitrogen or other unreactable gas.The second cooling spiral conveyer can be the transmission ash in continuous chain bucket elevator, and chain bucket elevator can directly or indirectly move ash or move in the bunker to the bunker direction.The second ash cooling auger loader, chain bucket elevator and bunker can be used unreactable gas, and for example nitrogen covers.
Be used for ash is delivered to from gasifier two auger loaders spent glycol/aqueous mixtures cooling indirectly of bunker.It is known using conventional glycol/water to come indirect cooling screw auger loader to handle industry at raw material, and can use.
The indirect cooling spiral conveyer of first glycol/water can remain on the ambient pressure or the state of negative pressure a little.First auger loader can be used for cooling off abundant ash so that ash can be discharged in the rotary air lock and/or roll crusher in.On the one hand, first auger loader can be a roll crusher to the rotary air lock feed then.Selectable, the equipment order can change, and roll crusher can be arranged on the front and be the most preceding in system like this, and ensuing is rotary air lock.
The purpose of roll crusher is broken any ashes of smouldering, and allows ashes to be extinguished by nitrogen or other unreactable gas, covering system before the arrival bunker.Roll crusher can be two-roll crusher and be made up of a pair of steel rider that steel rider by about 1/4 inch slit separately.Selectable, roll crusher can adopt bigger or less slit.Can fix for one in two rollers, another can be installed on the stiffness spring, and like this at non-crushable material or article, for example the steel bolt moves through under the situation of system, provides some to slow down load or mobile.
