Definitions
- the invention relates to a method for removing mist from the atmosphere by spraying a reagent into the misty atmosphere.
- fog continues to pose a significant risk to the entire flow of traffic, for example in sea or river harbors, airports, at busy traffic junctions or the like, or it is a considerable hindrance to outdoor events, such as sporting events. They occur due to the condensation of water vapor from the atmosphere when the saturation limit of water in the atmosphere is reached or exceeded, the moisture precipitates on crystallization nuclei in the atmosphere and thus separates droplets which have a diameter of between 0.1 and 30 microns and which, owing to their quasi-disperse fine distribution known clouding caused by fog.
- Crystallization nuclei are in particular ionizable or ionized salt particles formed, which get into the atmosphere by spraying sea water or with the flue gases from incineration plants, so that there is a high concentration of fog-forming germs, especially in densely populated areas.
- the aim of the present invention is to provide a method by means of which the mist can be removed to great heights at a lower cost and a freedom from fog can be ensured over a longer period of time.
- the invention consists in the fact that the treatment is carried out by spraying a substance in a fine distribution, which splits off a gaseous reaction product with the water droplets forming the fog under exothermic reaction.
- the invention provides a method by means of which a long-term absence of fog from large areas up to great heights can be achieved quickly and at low cost.
- the invention is based on the effect that on the one hand the moisture present in condensed form is bound directly by the chemical reaction of the substance with water and on the other hand that the spray area creates a buoyancy by the exothermic reaction in connection with the splitting off of a gaseous reaction product the fine-grained material portions are carried to great heights, so that the reaction continues from the spray level upwards.
- the exothermic reaction has the further advantage that the water absorption capacity of the air increases considerably as a result of the resulting warming of the air. the relative humidity decreases, which is the basis for the fact that the absence of fog in the treated area is maintained over longer periods.
- the treatment is advantageously carried out with the aid of a substance which chemically reacts with water.
- the metal carbides in particular calcium carbide, with a grain size of less than 0.3 mm, preferably less than 0.15 mm, are preferably used here, which form environmentally harmless reaction products with high heat emission and inexpensive to produce, namely, on the one hand, calcium hydroxide, which continues to be used in a suitable manner Cleaning of the atmosphere from nucleating particles and ions contributes, and on the other hand acethylene, which, due to its lower specific weight compared to air, continues to generate buoyant forces beyond warming and briefly decays in the atmosphere under the influence of active radiation, especially UV radiation from the sun.
- metal carbides instead of the metal carbides, a number of other substances, in particular nitrogen and hydrogen-containing organic substances, can also be used, for example azanes, diazanes, triazanes or tetraazanes, furthermore azenes, diazenes, triazenes or tetraazenes, triazdienes or tetraazdienes, finally azo- or diazomethane , Formic acid, methylhadrazine, oxalic acid, dimethyl peroxide, in pure form or as a salt.
- nitrogen and hydrogen-containing organic substances for example azanes, diazanes, triazanes or tetraazanes, furthermore azenes, diazenes, triazenes or tetraazenes, triazdienes or tetraazdienes, finally azo- or diazomethane , Formic acid, methylhadrazine, oxalic acid, dimethyl peroxide, in pure form or
- one or more substances which bind water with an exothermic reaction by hydrolysis and / or hydration in particular sodium sulfate free from water of crystallization, sodium hydrophosphate, sodium carbonate, barium oxide, silicon chloride or the like, in an amount of up to 65% by weight, preferably between 15 and 35% by weight. Due to the large water-binding capacity of these substances, even for non-condensed moisture, the water content of the air and thus the relative air humidity is further reduced, as a result of which the period of achievable freedom from fog is further increased to the west. For the same reason, the use of materials can be reduced considerably in many cases, especially in cases where there is no question of creating freedom from fog up to high altitudes, so the creation of large buoyancy forces by the formation of large amounts of gas and higher temperatures is not necessary.
- the substance or the mixture of substances can be used Buffering the reaction to water-inert materials, for example alkali or alkaline earth carbonates, such as calcium carbonate or
- Sodium carbonate can be added.
- spraying the substance can. of the substance mixture take place with dried inert gas instead of with the dried air usually used.
- Example 1 The runway of an airport is to be cleared of a length of 3000 a and a width of 60 m up to a height of 60 m.
- the oversaturation is 25% at an outside temperature of 10 degrees Celsius.
- the saturation at 10 degrees C is 10 g / m3 for air, so that under the given conditions 2.5 g water / m3 air, i.e. a total of 27,000 kg of water must be bound from the specified volume of air.
- the stoichiometric reaction ratio between calcium carbide and water is 1: 2, so that a total of about 80,000 kg of calcium carbide are required for a molecular weight of calcium carbide of 64 and water of 18 for binding, the water, which is approximately in the reaction Release 250,000 m3 of acethylene, which corresponds to a proportion of the air volume in question of around 1.4%, ie a concentration that is far from dangerous.
- the spraying is done with several dust cannons with dried air at a pressure of 6 Atü up to heights of about 50 m, for At least 8 hours a fog-free corridor results in the requested expansion.
- Example 2 Under the same external conditions as in Example 1, a sports field 200 m long and 150 m wide should be freed from fog up to a height of 50 m.
- the amount of water to be bound in this case is 3750 kg.
- a mixture of substances consisting of 75% calcium carbide and 25% sodium hydrophosphate is used, of which 216 g water per mole of substance used, corresponding to approx. 1520 g water per kg, are bound.
- the mixture used thus binds about 800 g of water per kg, so that a total of about 4687 kg of substance mixture must be used.
- the spraying takes place in the manner described in Example 1 at a height of approximately 30 to 35 m.
