Definitions
- the invention relates to an ash-disposal system for ashes discharged from a coal-fired or other ash-bearing fuel-fired combustion chamber.
- the invention as claimed is intended to provide a remedy by providing an ash-handling or ash-disposal system for the furnaces of steam generators, including an ash hopper beneath the furnace into which the ash and slag initially falls.
- a pair of scraper conveyors which are submerged in water are located below the ash hopper from which the ash is continuously disposed of.
- Water nozzles are located in the ash hopper for cooling and moving the ash.
- numeral 10 denotes the furnace bottom opening of a coal-fired steam generator, through which molten ash and slag are discharged.
- a water seal 12 permits thermal expansion of the top-supported furnace, while preventing exposure of the interior of ash hopper 14 to the atmosphere.
- Ash falls into the ash hopper ( Figure 2), sliding down the angled floor to one of-the openings 18,20. These openings can be closed by gates 22,-24 when necessary, as later described.
- This hopper may or may not be refractory-lined and may or may not be water-cooled.
- the ash falls through the openings 18, 20 into one or the other of the longitudinal tanks 26, 28.
- Each tank contains a scraper conveyor 30, 32, the upper runs of which are'submerged, or located beneath the water level maintained in each tank.
- the upper runs of the conveyors carry the clinkers to the end of the tanks, where they can be discharged into trucks or onto mechanical conveyors (not shown) and transported away.
- a portion of the water in the tanks is constantly removed and replenished to maintain the main body of water at a temperature not exceeding 160°F (71°C).
- the conveyors are in constant operation, continuously removing ash.
- its corresponding gate valve for example 22, can be closed, so all of the ash is then discharged through opening 20 into tank 28.
- Tank 26 can then be drained so-that the conveyor 30, or other broken equipment, can be repaired without necessitating shutdown of the steam generator.
- both gate valves 22 and 24 can be closed. Water from the nozzles 40 can then be used.to fill the ash hopper 14 to a given level, and the ash can be temporarily stored in the ash hopper for a short time while minor repair or maintenance work is done to the conveyors.
- An overflow pipe 42 keeps the water at a constant level during this type of operation.
- the water nozzles 40 provide an additional function. During normal operation, they direct jets or sprays of water onto the falling ash, thus providing hydraulic fracturing and sluicing of large ash particles, preventing the openings 18 and 20 from becoming clogged.
- the gates can be kept closed, and the ash hopper normally filled with water. The gates could then be intermittently opened to allow discharge of the ash.
