Definitions

  • the present invention relates to an apparatus for wetting char and slag discharged under a coal gasification reactor to a water bath located below the reactor.
  • Such an apparatus is known from US-4,425,254.
  • This known system for quenching slag from a coal gasification reactor typically employs an annular duct perforated with holes for injecting oil therefrom in a random manner to wet slag in a water bath below and sink the slag.
  • the duct is provided with nozzles disposed in two rows in two locations one above the other along two inner circles at the surface of the annular duct. These nozzles are oriented at different angles to the surface of the water bath, these angles being common to the respective rows.
  • the perforated ducts used in this known system have a fixed number of holes each with a fixed diameter and fixed angle of injection for a selected type of coal having specific wetting characteristics.
  • the apparatus according to the present invention therefore is characterized by an adjustable spray mechanism to suit coals of different wetting characteristics, said spray mechanism comprising a separate interchangeable annular conduit; means for installing the said conduit above the said water bath; the said conduit being provided with threaded orifices disposed about the annular conduit; the said orifices having selected replaceable nozzles screwed therein in a single row; and means for injecting water or water and a wetting agent or water and a coagulating agent through the circular conduit.
  • the present invention relates in particular to an apparatus for wetting char and slag in a water bath below a coal gasification reactor, hereinafter referred to as a gasifier, wherein synthesis gas is generated.
  • synthesis gas occurs by partially combusting organic or carbonaceous fuel, such as coal, at relatively high temperatures in the range of 800 to 2000 °C and at a pressure range of from about 1 to 200 bar in the presence of oxygen or oxygen-containing gases in a gasifier.
  • Steam, carbon monoxide, carbon dioxide and oxygen-containing gases including air, oxygen-enriched air, and oxygen are optionally diluted with nitrogen and/or other inert gases.
  • the combustion may be complete or partial, the object of the combustion process being the production of synthesis gas for power generations.
  • the ash which is the inorganic, incombustible material is separated from the fuel during the combustion of the mineral fuel.
  • the ash is mainly obtained in solid (hereinafter referred to as char) or liquid (hereinafter referred to as slag) condition or in a combination thereof.
  • the char and slag exit the gasifier through a discharge opening, often referred to as a slag tap, and are generally collected in a water bath located below the slag tap of the reactor. In the water bath both char and slag are cooled, the slag is solidified, and char and slag are subsequently discharged.
  • the present invention relates to wetting the char and slag in the water bath to facilitate separating the char and slag from water.
  • a circular conduit containing water and possibly a wetting agent is provided with threaded ports for changing the nozzle configuration depending on the wetting characteristics of the char and slag.
  • An advantage of the present invention is the capability of adjusting the wetting of the char and slag in the water bath according to ascertained wetting characteristics of the char and slag.
  • the apparatus according to the invention is also suitable for other catalytic or finely divided particulate reactive solids such as those which can be combusted as, for example, lignite, anthracite, bituminous brown coal, soot, petroleum coke and the like.
  • the size of the solid carbonaceous fuel is such that about 90 percent by weight of the fuel has a particle size smaller than No. 6 mesh (A.S.T.M.).
  • an apparatus such as a conduit 26, for wetting char and slag 11 in a water bath 15 generally includes a nozzle configuration (shown in detail in Fig. 2) to achieve adequate wetting of the char and slag 11.
  • a nozzle configuration shown in detail in Fig. 2 to achieve adequate wetting of the char and slag 11.
  • Factors considered in selecting the configuration include the diameter of the nozzle 12, the force of the water, including possibly a wetting agent injected through the conduit 26 to impinge on the char and slag 11 in the water bath 15, the angle of impingement 14, and the direction of the nozzle 12 with respect to the location of the discharge opening 16 (Fig. 1) of the water bath 15.
  • the diameter of the nozzle 12 should be about 0,6-1,3 cm to yield a velocity of about 3 m per second which will force the char and slag particles to sink while preventing the nozzle 12 from plugging with solids contained in the water recycled to the conduit 26.
  • the angle of impingement 14 (Fig. 2) of the water and wetting agent from the nozzle 12 with respect to the surface 28 (Fig. 1) of the water bath 15 is advantageously about 30 degrees.
  • the nozzles 12 are directed inwardly (Fig. 1) towards the discharge opening 16 (Fig. 1) of the water bath 15 to facilitate separation and removal of the char and slag.
  • the selected configuration is installed, advantageously by screwing each selected nozzle 12 into a threaded orifice 17 as shown in Fig. 3.
  • the threaded orifice 17 provides the capability of replacing the nozzle 12 with another nozzle 18 having a smaller diameter and greater angle of impingement with respect to the horizontal as shown in Fig. 4 to yield a greater force for sinking the char and slag to the bottom of the water bath 15.
  • At least one fluid, advantageously water, which is recirculated from the water bath 15 and a wetting agent are supplied to the conduit 26 as shown in Fig. 5.
  • Jets of water are formed in a single row (Fig. 2) with nozzles directed inwardly at an angle of about 30 degrees from the horizontal.
  • the char and slag particles 11 (Fig. 1) which have fallen into the water bath 15 are agitated to set the particles in motion one against the other.
  • a coagulant can be added to the water supplied to the conduit 26.
  • the char and slag particles agglomerate and sink to the bottom of the water bath 15 and are subsequently removed.
