Abstract

A device for the support of ceramic catalyst monoliths especially of square cross section as well as for the combination of several of such monoliths into one package. It is formed of an elastic gasket attached on one or both monolith ends and a metal frame attached on the gasket under pressure. The frame has recesses on two adjacent lateral surfaces, and at the two opposite lateral surfaces it has projections which can engage interlockingly into the recesses of adjacent frames.

Description

Die Neuerung betrifft eine Vorrichtung zur Halterung von viereckigen, z.B. quadratischen oder rechteckigen monolithischen keramischen Katalysatorelementen zur Herabsetzung des Schadstoffausstoßes von Verbrennungsanlagen, z.B. Feuerungsanlagen für Wärmekraftwerke, sowie zur Zusammenfassung solcher Katalysatorelemente zu einem Paket.The innovation relates to a device for holding square, e.g. square or rectangular monolithic ceramic catalyst elements to reduce pollutant emissions from combustion plants, e.g. Firing systems for thermal power plants, as well as to combine such catalyst elements into one package.

Keramische Monolithen erfordern wegen ihrer Bruchgefährdung unter extremen Betriebsbedingungen (Erschütterungen, Druckstöße, Temperaturwechsel) eine sichere und stoßabsorbierende Befestigung. Die sie nicht in beliebiger Größe herstellbar sind, besteht weiterhin die Notwendigkeit, mehrere Elemente in einer Batterie zusammenzufassen, um die z.B. bei Kraftwerksabgasen pro Zeiteinheit strömenden großen Gasvolumina durchsetzen zu können.Ceramic monoliths require secure and shock-absorbing fastening because of their risk of breakage under extreme operating conditions (vibrations, pressure surges, temperature changes). Since they cannot be produced in any size, there is still the need to combine several elements in one battery in order to e.g. to be able to enforce large gas volumes flowing from power plant exhaust gases per unit of time.

Es ist bekannt, bei einem Filter zur Abbrennung von im Abgas eines Dieselmotors enthaltenen Rußpartikeln ein Abscheidesystem zu verwenden, bei dem eine der äußeren Form des Katalysatorelements entsprechende und formschlüssig auf dieses aufschiebbare elastische Puffermanschette und ein der äußeren Form von Katalysatorelement und Puffermanschette entsprechender, die Puffermanschette umgreifender Metallrahmen vorliegt, dessen innerer freier Querschnitt größer als die Stirnfläche des Katalysatorelements und kleiner als die Summe der Stirnflächen von Katalysatorelement und Puffermanschette oder gleich der Summe dieser Stirnflächen ist. Dabei muß für eine vorgesehene Anzahl von Filterelementen stets ein darauf abgestimmtes Gehäuse verwendet werden, so daß die Zusammenfassung beliebig vieler Filterelemente der oben genannten Bauweise zu einem beliebig großen Filterpaket nicht möglich ist (EP-A 0112634).It is known to use a separating system in a filter for burning off soot particles contained in the exhaust gas of a diesel engine, in which an elastic buffer sleeve corresponding to the outer shape of the catalyst element and positively slidable onto this and an outer sleeve corresponding to the outer shape of the catalyst element and buffer sleeve, the buffer sleeve encompassing metal frame is present, the inner free cross section of which is larger than the end face of the catalyst element and smaller than the sum of the end faces of the catalyst element and buffer sleeve or equal to the sum of these end faces. In this case, a matching housing must always be used for an intended number of filter elements, so that it is not possible to combine any number of filter elements of the above-mentioned design into an arbitrarily large filter package (EP-A 0112634).

Gemäß der Neuerung wird dieser Nachteil durch eine Vorrichtung zur Halterung von zur Abgasnachbehandlung von Verbrennungsanlagen verwendeten viereckigen monolithischen keramischen Katalysatorelementen sowie zur Zusammenfassung derselben zu einem Paket beseitigt. Diese Vorrichtung ist versehen mit einer der äußeren Form des Katalysatorelements entsprechenden und formschlüssig auf dieses aufschiebbaren elastischen Puffermanschette und einem der äußeren Form von Katalysatorelement und Puffermanschette entsprechenden, die Puffermanschette umgreifenden Metallrahmen, dessen innerer freier Querschnitt größer als die Stirnfläche des Katalysatorelements und kleiner als die Summe der Stirnflächen von Katalysatorelement und Puffermanschette oder gleich der Summe dieser Stirnflächen ist.According to the innovation, this disadvantage is eliminated by a device for holding quadrangular monolithic ceramic catalyst elements used for exhaust gas aftertreatment of combustion systems and for combining them into a package. This device is provided with an elastic buffer sleeve corresponding to the outer shape of the catalyst element and positively slidable onto this and a metal frame corresponding to the outer shape of the catalyst element and buffer sleeve, encompassing the buffer sleeve, the internal free cross section of which is larger than the end face of the catalyst element and smaller than the sum the end faces of the catalyst element and the buffer sleeve or equal to the sum of these end faces.

Sie ist dadurch gekennzeichnet, daß

  • a) die Rahmentiefe und die Länge der Puffermanschette mindestens 1/50 der Länge des Katalysatorelements entsprechen und
  • b) jeweils zwei benachbarte Seitenflächen des Rahmens in symmetrischer Anordnung Ausnehmungen bzw. nach innen springende Sicken aufweisen und die beiden übrigen Seitenflächen Vorsprünge aufweisen, die formschlüssig in die Ausnehmungen bzw. Sicken benachbarter Rahmen eingreifen können.
It is characterized in that
  • a) the frame depth and the length of the buffer sleeve correspond to at least 1/50 the length of the catalyst element and
  • b) each have two adjacent side faces of the frame in a symmetrical arrangement of recesses or inwardly projecting beads and the two other side faces have projections which can engage in a form-fitting manner in the recesses or beads of adjacent frames.

Die Puffermanschette kann z.B. aus Mineralfaser, Keramikfaser, Drahtgestrick oder anderen temperaturfesten elastischen Werkstoffen bestehen. Nachdem sie auf den Monolithen von dessen Stirnseite(n) her aufgeschoben ist, wird der Metallrahmen über die Manschette geschoben, wobei die elastische Manschette verdichtet werden kann. Diese Verdichtung kann auch durch ein Manschettenmaterial, welches sich bei Erwärmung einmalig ausdehnt, erreicht oder verstärkt werden. Ein solches Material ist z.B. eine sog. Blähglimmermatte, wie sie z.B. eine sog. Blähglimmermatte, wie sie z.B. von der Firma 3M unter der Bezeichnung INTERAM@ vertrieben wird. Die erforderliche Wärmebehandlung kann nach der Montage oder aber auch erst im Betrieb durch Beaufschlagung mit heißen Abgasen, z.B. einem heißen Rauchgas, vorgenommen werden.The buffer sleeve can e.g. consist of mineral fiber, ceramic fiber, wire mesh or other temperature-resistant elastic materials. After it has been pushed onto the monolith from its end face (s), the metal frame is pushed over the sleeve, whereby the elastic sleeve can be compressed. This compression can also be achieved or reinforced by a sleeve material that expands once when heated. Such a material is e.g. a so-called expanded mica mat, e.g. a so-called expanded mica mat, e.g. is marketed by 3M under the name INTERAM @. The required heat treatment can be carried out after installation or only during operation by exposure to hot exhaust gases, e.g. a hot flue gas.

Soll der Katalysator Betriebsbedingungen ausgesetzt werden, denen die reibschlüssige Verbindung zwischen Monolith und Puffermanschette einerseits und Puffermanschette und Metallrahmen andererseits nicht gewachsen sein könnte, so wird der Rahmen an einer Stirnseite mit Sicherungsanschlägen versehen, welche die Katalysatorstirnfläche am Rand umgreifen und damit durch Formschluß eine axiale Verschiebung des Katalysatorelements verhindern.If the catalytic converter is to be exposed to operating conditions which the frictional connection between the monolith and the buffer sleeve on the one hand and the buffer sleeve and metal frame on the other hand could not cope with, the frame is provided on one end face with safety stops which encompass the end face of the catalytic converter and thus cause an axial displacement due to positive locking prevent the catalyst element.

Gemäß einer vorteilhaften Ausführungsform der Neuerung springt also der Metallrahmen an seiner Stirnseite nach innen unter Ausbildung eines durchgehenden oder in mehrere "Zungen" aufgeteilten Anschlags für eine Randzone der Stirnfläche des Katalysatorelements vor.According to an advantageous embodiment of the innovation, the metal frame on its end face projects inwards with the formation of a continuous stop or a stop divided into a plurality of “tongues” for an edge zone of the end face of the catalyst element.

Bei vertikal stehenden kürzeren Katalysatorelementen genügt es oft schon, das Katalysatorelement nur in seinem unteren Abschnitt zu haltern. Bei längeren Elementen, stärkerer Beanspruchung oder horizontaler Anbringung der Elemente ist jedoch eine beidseitige Halterung ratsam.With shorter, vertically positioned catalytic converter elements, it is often sufficient to hold the catalytic converter element only in its lower section. In the case of longer elements, greater stress or horizontal installation of the elements, a bracket on both sides is advisable.

Gemäß der Neuerung kann also die Kombination aus Puffermanschette und Metallrahmen für eine Anbringung an mindestens einem Endabschnitt des Katalysatorelements vorgesehen sein.According to the innovation, the combination of buffer sleeve and metal frame can therefore be provided for attachment to at least one end section of the catalyst element.

Die Neuerung wird nachfolgend anhand einer vorteilhaften Ausführungsvariante in Verbindung mit der einzigen Figur der Zeichnung weiter erläutert.The innovation is explained further below using an advantageous embodiment in conjunction with the single figure of the drawing.

Die linke als Explosionszeichnung gestaltete Figur 1 zeigt ein 1 m langes monolithisches keramisches Katalysatorelement 1 von quadratischem Querschnitt (Kantenlänge 150 mm), welches über seine Gesamtlänge von zahlreichen quadratischen Strömungskanälen durchzogen wird, in welchen das zu behandelnde Abgas strömt und mit dem Katalysator in Berührung kommt. Dieser kann stofflicher Bestandteil des Elements sein oder auf dem keramischen Werkstoff des Elements als Beschichtung vorliegen.The left, designed as an exploded drawing, shows a 1 m long monolithic ceramic catalyst element 1 of square cross-section (edge length 150 mm), which is traversed over its entire length by numerous square flow channels, in which the exhaust gas to be treated flows and comes into contact with the catalyst . This can be a material component of the element or can be present as a coating on the ceramic material of the element.

Eine 3 cm lange Puffermanschette 2 aus elastischem Drahtgestrick mit geringfügig kleinerem freien inneren Querschnitt als die Stirnfläche des Monolithen (149 mm x 149 mm) wird auf letzteren so aufgezwängt, daß ihre äußere Stirnfläche bündig mit der Stirnfläche des Monolithen endigt.A 3 cm long buffer sleeve 2 made of elastic wire mesh with a slightly smaller free inner cross-section than the end face of the monolith (149 mm x 149 mm) is forced onto the latter so that its outer end face ends flush with the end face of the monolith.

Ein 3 cm tiefer Rahmen 3 aus temperaturfestem Stahl (z.B. Werkstoff V2A) entspricht der äußeren Form von Monolith und Manschette und hat einen etwas geringeren inneren freien Querschnitt als die Summe der Stirnflächen von Katalysatorelement und Puffermanschette (158 mm x 158 mm). Er ist an zwei benachbarten Seitenflächen mit rechteckigen Ausnehmungen 4 in übereinstimmender Form und Anordnung versehen (Abmessung 10 mm x 100 mm). Die beiden übrigen Seitenflächen sind mit rechteckigen Vorsprüngen 5 versehen, die formschlüssig in die oben beschriebenen Ausnehmungen benachbarter Rahmen eines Pakets gehalterter Katalysatorelemente eingreifen können.A 3 cm deep frame 3 made of temperature-resistant steel (e.g. material V2A) corresponds to the outer shape of the monolith and sleeve and has a slightly smaller inner free cross-section than the sum of the end faces of the catalyst element and buffer sleeve (158 mm x 158 mm). It is provided on two adjacent side surfaces with rectangular recesses 4 in a matching shape and arrangement (dimensions 10 mm x 100 mm). The two other side surfaces are provided with rectangular projections 5, which can positively engage in the above-described recesses in adjacent frames of a package of held catalyst elements.

Am äußeren Rand des Metallrahmens ist pro Rahmenseite jeweils ein senkrecht zur Seitenfläche 6 mm nach innen ragendes und die Randzone der Monolithstirnfläche stützendes Anschlagblech 6 angebracht.Attached to the outer edge of the metal frame is a stop plate 6 protruding 6 mm inwards perpendicularly to the side surface and supporting the edge zone of the monolith end face.

Der Rahmen wird bei der Montage über die Puffermanschette gezwängt und soweit auf sie aufgeschoben, bis die Anschlagbleche in Kontakt mit der Monolith-Stirnfläche kommen.The frame is forced over the buffer sleeve during assembly and pushed onto it until the stop plates come into contact with the monolith face.

Der an beiden Enden mit der Halterungsvorrichtung versehene Monolith kann dann mit anderen ebenso ausgerüsteten Monolithen über die Nut/Feder-Verbindung 4/5 zu einem Katalysatorpaket zusammengesteckt werden.The monolith provided with the holding device at both ends can then be put together with other equally equipped monoliths via the tongue and groove connection 4/5 to form a catalyst package.

Die rechte Figur 2 zeigt die Projektionsansichten auf das Katalysatorelement 1, eine Puffermanschette 2 und auf einen Rahmen 3.The right FIG. 2 shows the projection views onto the catalytic converter element 1, a buffer sleeve 2 and onto a frame 3.
