To reactor vessel supply microwave energy, described reactor vessel is made of the microwave field of being introduced effectively to hold wherein the proper metal material.When the fluidised material in the contact reactor container, most of microwave energy is converted into heat, thereby improved the temperature of fluid bed.Microwave energy is coupled to the efficient of fluid bed material by tuning device (11) control that is installed in the waveguide.Can the electronics mode control these tuning devices to continue to optimize power transfer.When fluidized-bed temperature is issued to the boiling point of mercury or during near 357 ℃, mercury enters vapour phase and taken out of container in the fluidisation air-flow at standard atmospheric pressure.If people think the burning bed material, fluidizing gas can be surrounding air so, maybe described gas can be chosen as mercury and carbon are inertia (for example nitrogen), so the heating process in the reactor vessel just can not burnt sorbing material.
The thermal current that leaves reactor vessel passes cyclone separator as described above.Because gas temperature maintains more than the mercury boiling point, so mercuryvapour is carried to gas outlet pipe (5), mercuryvapour is condensed or otherwise filters to reclaim herein.
Mix with other discharge solid (7) from the isolated particulate (12) of carrying secretly of cyclone separator.
As known in the fluidization, in the material stream of inflow or outflow reaction vessel (and cyclone separator), adopt various valves (13) to stop the gas leakage.
In order to monitor and control heating process, various instruments (14) are installed in the equipment.Temperature probe is installed in fluid bed and all are sent into and the diverse location of discharge pipe (comprising gas input and output pipeline).Gas pressure and product monitor are installed in all gas pipeline.Measure flow of material by flowmeter or by mass measurement by reactor vessel.So the system of assembling with instrument can be by hand or operates automatically to keep system and move in maximum figure in the minimum of setting.
Mix a main material by an independent feed stream (15), described feed stream (15) fuses with the contaminated materials feed stream and is controlled, the loss when passing through reactor to compensate main bed material.If desired, can from the regeneration sorbing material, isolate main bed material (for example, by flotation or Gravity Separation) and can be recycled to the input hopper for re-using.
According to a preferred embodiment of the present invention, when using the inert gas fluidisation, mercury pollution materials can be cleared out of mercury effectively and not burn, thereby allows to re-use sorbing material.As described above, can effectively capture the mercury of release.The method of this distillation mercury mainly is because the use microwave energy produces the efficient and the speed of heat, and has the distinct advantages that is better than other heater.
