Abstract

Apparatus for the selective continuous or discontinuous methanization of biogenic materials, comprising a fermenter fitted to a debris cone shape of a substrate, is new.

Description

Zur Methanisierung biogener stapelbarer Feststoffe sind bereits mehrere Verfahren und Vorrichtungen zum kontinuierlichen (Gärka­ nal, Anacom-Verfahren, Gleitschicht-Fermenter AZ 29902143.2) und absätzigen Betrieb (EP 0 934 998 A2) bekannt. Bei der hier vor­ gestellten Erfindung handelt es sich um ein Verfahren, welches den wahlweisen kontinuierlichen und diskontinuierlichen Fermen­ terbetrieb ermöglicht. Damit ergibt sich eine größtmögliche Flexibilität im Praxiseinsatz. Im Gegensatz zum Anacom-Verfah­ ren, das die vorgestellte Erfindung am ehesten tangiert und mit zylindrischen oder quaderförmigen Fermentern, hydraulischer fall-down-Befüllung und Kratzbodenentleerung betrieben wird, besitzt der vorgestellte Fermenter auch eine platzsparendere und kostengünstigere Behälterform, die an den natürlichen Schütt­ kegel des Füllmaterials angepaßt ist. Es handelt sich also vor­ zugsweise um einen Kegel- oder Pyramidenstumpf. Die Biomasse wird zwar ebenfalls nach dem fall-down-Konzept kontinuierlich eingefüllt. Aber statt einer teuren und energieaufwendigen hy­ draulisch betriebenen beheizten senkrechten Rohrförderung mit Prallteller ist hier eine mechanische Befüllvorrichtung, vor­ zugsweise mit einem Förderband, vorgesehen, die das Füllgut einer steuerbaren Siphon-Schleuse zuteilt. Der Austrag des Gär­ rückstandes kann kontinuierlich, vorzugsweise über einen boden­ seitigen Einfülltrichter mittels Frässchnecke bzw. Siphon oder diskontinuierlich über mechanische Entnahmevorrichtungen, vor­ zugsweise mittels mobilen Schaufeln, Fräsen, Schneidzangen etc., erfolgen. Für die diskontinuierliche Entnahme sind luftdichte Einfahrluken vorgesehen. Falls Einfahrluken vermieden werden sollen, wird der Fermenterfuß in eine Tauchrinne gestellt und zum Entleeren ist ein stufenweises senkrechtes Anheben oder Ankippen erforderlich. Das vorzugsweise mechanische Anheben er­ folgt beispielsweise über mehrere Gewindestangen, die gleichzei­ ig Stütz- und Sicherungsfunktionen während des Entnahmebetrie­ bes erfüllen.To methanize biogenic stackable solids are already several methods and devices for continuous (Gärka nal, Anacom process, sliding layer fermenter AZ 29902143.2) and paragraph operation (EP 0 934 998 A2) known. In front of here The invention presented is a method which the optional continuous and discontinuous Fermen Operation enabled. This results in the greatest possible Flexibility in practice. In contrast to the Anacom process ren, which most closely affects the presented invention and with cylindrical or cuboid fermenters, hydraulic fall-down filling and scraper floor emptying, the fermenter presented also has a more space-saving and more cost-effective container shape attached to the natural bulk cone of the filling material is adapted. So it's happening preferably around a truncated cone or pyramid. The biomass will also be continuous according to the fall-down concept filled. But instead of an expensive and energy-consuming hy drastically operated heated vertical pipe conveyor with The baffle plate is a mechanical filling device preferably provided with a conveyor belt, which the filling material assigned a controllable siphon lock. The discharge of the ferment Residue can be continuous, preferably over a floor Filling funnel on the side using a milling screw or siphon or discontinuously via mechanical removal devices preferably using mobile shovels, milling machines, cutting pliers etc., respectively. For the discontinuous removal are airtight Entry hatches provided. If entry hatches are avoided the fermenter foot is placed in a diving channel and for emptying is a gradual vertical lifting or Tilting required. The preferred mechanical lifting he follows, for example, over several threaded rods, the same time ig support and safety functions during the removal operation bes meet.

Die Substraterwärmung erfolgt vorzugsweise über die Impf- bzw. rezirkulierten Perkolatflüssigkeiten entweder durch Vortemperie­ rung der Füllmaterialien in der Einfüllschleuse oder periodische Einspeisungen, so daß im Gegensatz zum Ancom-Verfahren teure Wandheizungen entbehrlich werden.The substrate is preferably heated via the inoculation or recirculated percolate fluids either by preheating tion of the filling materials in the feed lock or periodic  Feeds, so that in contrast to the Ancom process expensive Wall heaters become unnecessary.
