Description

Waste plastic radiation thermal cracking system

Technical Field

The disclosure relates to the technical field of plastic cracking, and particularly provides a waste plastic radiation thermal cracking system.

Background

The statements herein merely provide background information related to the present disclosure and may not necessarily constitute prior art.

At present, with the development of industry, plastics are utilized more and more, so that the recycling of waste plastics becomes a big problem, and at present, the recycling of waste plastics mainly comprises a physical regeneration recycling method, landfill, incineration power generation and the like.

However, the physical recycling method has a high quality requirement for plastics, cannot contain impurities, and requires a large amount of pretreatment such as sorting, and thus the application range thereof is limited. In the case of landfill, limited cultivated land is occupied, and land resources are wasted seriously, and the landfill becomes a soft foundation and is difficult to reuse in the future. The incineration treatment utilizes macromolecular materials with high heat value, such as plastics, and has the characteristic of large heat productivity. However, burning waste plastics is easy to coke, has high requirements for devices such as a burning furnace, needs to establish a whole set of related supporting devices, and has very high cost.

Therefore, the inventor observes and analyzes the waste plastic treatment method in the prior art, and finds that the physical regeneration recovery, landfill and incineration power generation methods cannot well solve the problem of waste plastic recovery, and particularly have the problems of high cost, environmental pollution and the like.

Disclosure of Invention

The method aims to solve a series of problems of high cost, environmental pollution and the like in the prior art that the waste plastic treatment is mainly a physical regeneration recovery, landfill and incineration power generation method. The present disclosure uses a novel approach to radiation cracking for harmless treatment of waste plastics. Waste plastics are radiatively cracked into combustible gas with low pollution and high fuel value under proper temperature condition for boiler of factory. This way of recycling waste plastics is an important development in waste plastics processing.

In one or some embodiments of the present disclosure, a waste plastic radiation thermal cracking process is provided, which includes a first stage cracking and a second stage cracking, wherein waste plastics are melted in the first stage cracking and cracked into light oil, cracked gas and slag in the second stage cracking, and the slag enters the first stage cracking to be used as a waste plastic melting medium to be cooperatively melted with the waste plastics; and separating the oil-gas mixture generated by the second-stage cracking, storing the separated cracked gas as fuel for later use, and separating a small amount of water from the separated light oil and then extracting and recovering the separated light oil.

The amorphous radiation cracking process design of the invention mainly takes cracking high-quality combustible gas as a principle, the cracking equipment mainly takes radiation cracking as a main part, the heating pipe carries out radiation heating decomposition on the waste plastic, and simultaneously, high-molecular-weight organic matters are further decomposed into combustible gas with high combustion value after passing through the 800 ℃ high-temperature pipe, and the gas yield is high.

In one or some embodiments of the present disclosure, a system for implementing the above waste plastic radiation thermal cracking method is provided, which comprises a crusher, a mixer, a waste plastic thermal cracker and a dry bin connected in sequence.

One or some of the above technical solutions have the following advantages or beneficial effects:

1) the method has the advantages that the requirements for processing plastics in the prior art are high, only a single type of plastics can be processed, the plastics need to be strictly classified before processing, the requirements of various occasions cannot be met, the use cost is high, and therefore the method is difficult to popularize. The required corollary equipment is few, and the investment is relatively little.

2) The prior art adopts the intermittent feeding mode more, and waste plastic can only once add when handling, and the time of adding plastics each time will wait before the reaction thoroughly after, leads to the treatment effeciency not high to all cool off and reheat at every turn, greatly wasted the energy, in addition can lead to partial cracked gas to escape from the reactor at the time of adding at every turn, cause the pollution to the environment. This results in low reaction efficiency, low throughput, and low practicality. This is disclosed regard the slag charge as the medium, has improved plastics and to the absorbing capacity of heat in the radiation process, and utilizes the high temperature flue gas that the pyrolysis process produced to carry out preliminary preheating to plastics, plastics continuous feed can, and the reaction waste residue continues to utilize as the medium, realizes the complete utilization of plastics. The problems of incomplete reaction and low utilization rate of plastics are solved.

3) In the prior art, plastic is directly placed in a reactor for heating, a carrier is not adopted, so that waste plastic is unevenly heated, the plastic is easily melted and then directly adhered to the wall of the reactor, and the plastic is directly coked and carbonized, so that the cracking efficiency is reduced, the product is changed, the oil yield is low, and the reactor is damaged. The method can prevent the plastic from forming a molten state in the waste plastic thermal cracking machine by using the high-temperature slag as a medium.

4) The process and the system are designed according to the basic principle of thermal cracking and the practical application of waste plastic radiation thermal cracking, the system can recycle various waste plastics without being classified in advance, the recycled products are mainly combustible gas and then liquid hydrocarbons and solid products, and the combustible gas can be directly used as fuel. Waste plastics produced by paper mills consisting of: 42% of Polyethylene (PE), 35% of polyeneine, 18% of polystyrene, 2% of contained chloride and 5% of other components, and due to the fact that oxidative cracking is not carried out, dioxin cannot be generated, and combustible gas is purified and belongs to clean energy.

5) The thermal cracking method is adopted, no catalyst is used, the treatment cost is reduced, and the method is favorable for popularization. There are a number of disadvantages to using a catalyst: 1. most of the catalyst is rare metal or metal compound, and the use cost is high; 2. the catalyst is easy to lose effectiveness, and the catalyst is often rapidly deactivated due to high temperature and high pressure and the generation of certain solid products in the reaction process. This is also a feature of the coke deposition process, resulting in the need to continually add catalyst to maintain catalysis, and some catalysts are themselves expensive, resulting in excessive costs for thermal cracking. 3. During the use of the catalyst, the catalyst is mixed with the products (such as coke, ash, slag and the like) generated by the reaction. It is difficult to separate the catalyst from the product, resulting in the inability to recycle the catalyst. In addition, the mixing of the catalyst is not favorable for the utilization of the residual solid phase. Therefore, the catalytic cracking is too costly to promote and use. Compared with catalytic cracking, the thermal cracking method can reduce the cost and is beneficial to popularization.
