Definitions

  • the invention relates to a regenerative reactor for burning industrial exhaust gases, in particular exhaust air containing pollutants, according to the preamble of claim 1. Furthermore, the invention relates to a method for burning industrial exhaust gases according to the preamble of claim 16.
  • Such a reactor system with three reactors in the form of so-called treatment towers is known from DE-OS 37 37 538.
  • these towers are connected by a large-volume connecting line.
  • this must be brought to the oxidation temperature when starting, which can be, for example, 800.degree. This requires considerable amounts of heat and long heating times.
  • a similarly constructed reactor system is known from DE-OS 38 37 989. No separate treatment towers are provided for this. Rather, three heat exchangers are arranged in a row next to one another within a housing. Here, too, there is a very large oxidation chamber, which at the same time also creates the connection between the heat exchangers. This oxidation chamber must first be heated when starting, which requires a lot of energy and long heating times. moreover, due to the high operating temperature, high heat losses occur.
  • a method for the treatment of a gas for the removal of impurities in which a reactor called a furnace is used, which has a cylindrical housing which has three heat exchanger regions which are sector-shaped in cross section. There is an oxidation chamber above the heat exchanger areas, in which the exhaust gases are burned. Due to the heat generated, the housing is subjected to high mechanical loads, which can lead to deformation or even destruction.
  • a reactor is preferred in which the expansion compensation zone of the partitions extends over the entire wall Width extends and the partitions are corrugated.
  • Partition walls designed in this way can absorb forces over their entire width and thus reduce stresses which occur when the reactor heats up excessively.
  • the partitions are relatively simple and therefore inexpensive to manufacture.
  • an embodiment of the reactor is particularly preferred in which the partition walls are double-walled. Since the adjacent heat exchanger areas are exposed to different gas flows and thus have different temperatures, thermal stresses which are based on the sharp drop in temperature within the partition walls can be reduced.
  • the double-walled walls isolate the individual heat exchanger areas better from each other, so that less thermal stresses can occur.
  • an embodiment of the reactor is preferred in which the partition walls starting from the peripheral wall meet at one point and are connected to a double-walled tube.
  • This opens on the one hand in the oxidation chamber of the reactor and on the other hand outside the housing. It is therefore possible to extract hot gas from the oxidation chamber and thus optimally adjust the temperature of the reactor, in particular to avoid overheating. In this way, an excessive increase in temperature inside the reactor can be avoided. This can also cause thermal stress optimally dismantle.
  • air preferably cold air, can be supplied to the gas withdrawn from the oxidation chamber, so that the gas withdrawn from the reactor overall has a significantly lower temperature than in the oxidation chamber. This also makes it possible to further reduce thermal loads on the reactor and the downstream elements.
  • An exemplary embodiment of the reactor is particularly preferred, which is characterized in that a flap is arranged in the tube serving to draw off the gas and can be acted upon by the withdrawn gas and the cold air supplied. Due to the reduced gas temperature due to the supply of cold air, the thermal load on the flap decreases, which can then be carried out relatively easily.
  • the object of the invention is also to provide a method for burning industrial exhaust gases, in particular pollutant-containing exhaust air, in which the thermal load on the reactor is minimized.
  • a method is particularly preferred in which hot clean gas, hot gas, is withdrawn from the oxidation chamber when the temperature inside the reactor threatens to become too high.
  • Fresh air preferably cold air, is added to the hot gas to reduce the thermal load on downstream control means.
  • FIG. 1B shows the base part of a regenerative reactor 10 with a circular cylindrical peripheral wall 11.
  • a tube 12 extends in its longitudinal axis and projects beyond the upper edge R 'of the peripheral wall 11.
  • three partitions 13, 14 and 15 are welded, which are arranged at equal angular intervals of 120 ° and have the same shape. If more than three partitions are provided, the angular distances should be selected accordingly.
  • the partitions are designed as rectangles, a cutout 13 ', 14' or 15 'being provided at the upper, inner corner facing the tube 12, which extends obliquely upwards and outwards from the upper end of the tube 12 , as can be seen from Figures 1B and 8.
  • the boundary line of the section can, for example — as in FIG. 1B — run in the shape of a sector of a circle but also linearly.
  • the peripheral wall 11 is closed at the bottom by a bottom which seals the housing in a gastight manner.
  • the partitions 13, 14 and 15 extend to this floor and are welded to it.
  • the interior of the housing is divided into three circular sector-shaped areas 1, 2 and 3, which are gas-tightly separated from one another by the partition walls, but in the upper area, namely in the area of the cutouts or cutouts 13 ', 14 'and 15' are connected.
  • each of the areas 1, 2 and 3 has the index number of the area in question.
  • Each of the areas in the floor 17 thus has a connection opening A for raw gas, which is consequently designated A1, A2 and A3.
  • each area 1, 2 and 3 has a connection opening R for clean gas, which is correspondingly designated R1, R2, for example R3.
  • each of the areas 1, 2 and 3 has a connection opening S for purging gas, which is correspondingly designated S1, S2 and S3.
  • connections for raw gas (A1 to A3), clean gas (R1 to R3) and purge gas (S1 to S3) can each be provided directly with a valve or slide, as is indicated in FIG. 2 by the oblique lines 25.
  • valves or slides can be located in the feed lines to these connections.
  • Such valves are usually designed as flaps.
  • an inflow chamber enclosed by the peripheral wall 11 is formed within the housing, which is separated into gas-tight inflow chambers by the three partition walls 13, 14 and 15 AK1, AK2 and AK3 is divided.
  • the inflow chambers extend from the bottom 17 to a grate 30 approximately over a third of the height of the interior of the housing.
  • the grate 30, which can be designed as the grate 30 'shown in section in FIG. 4 and which is only indicated schematically in FIG. 1B, serves to support a bed 35 made of inert ceramic material with high heat storage capacity, which differs from the grate 30 extends almost to the upper edge R 'of the peripheral wall 11.
  • the fill is indicated by cross hatching 36 in FIG. 1B.
  • the temperature of the bed in the area of this cross-hatching decreases from top to bottom, for example a temperature of approximately 700 ° C. to 800 ° C. above and a temperature of approximately 100 ° C. below.
  • annular flange 40 is attached to the outside of the peripheral wall 11, which is provided with holes 41 in a conventional manner.
  • This ring flange is therefore located in a medium temperature zone of, for example, 300 ° C. Depending on whether the flange is attached further up or down, the temperature prevailing there changes.
  • a ring flange 45 of a hood-shaped part is fastened to the ring flange 40, which is referred to below as hood 47 and is shown in FIG. 1A.
  • This ring flange 45 also has holes 46, which can be brought into alignment with the holes 41 in the ring flange and serve to accommodate screws or other fastening means. With the help of these screws, not shown here, the hood can be attached to the housing.
  • the hood 47 has a cylindrical section 49 adjoining the ring flange 45, which is preferably made of steel and merges into a circular cover 50 at the top, which can also be made of steel and forms the upper end of the hood 47.
  • the embodiment of the reactor shown here is circular-cylindrical, that is to say that the housing, like the hood 47, has a circular-cylindrical shape. It is also conceivable that both parts are triangular, the triangular shape of the housing or the hood then being predetermined by triangular areas of the heat exchanger. Instead of the triangular shape, other polygonal outer shapes of the housing or the hood can also be selected.
  • the hood 47 is continuously provided with a refractory lining, which is only indicated schematically here with the reference number 52.
  • the material of the lining can be chosen arbitrarily.
  • a fireproof brick with lightweight bricks, with fireproof cement or with a fireproof mat made of silicates, for example, can be selected.
  • peripheral wall 11 and the partition walls 13, 14 and 15 do not have to be lined with fire-resistance.

  • the hood 47 has a lateral connection piece 55, through which hot gas can be removed, for example for heating water, if necessary, for example if the heat generated during the combustion of the raw gas is too high. Likewise, hot gas can also be withdrawn through the central tube 12, which results in a particularly compact construction of the reactor.
  • a burner 56 is provided on the hood 47, which can be arranged in the cover 50, or as shown here, in the side wall of the hood. The flame of the burner is directed towards the center of the space enclosed by the hood 47.
  • the inside diameter of the hood 47 is dimensioned such that only a small gap 51 (see FIG. 8) remains between its inside and the radial outside 13 ′′, 14 ′′ and 15 ′′ of the partitions 13, 14 and 15.

  • an oxidation chamber 60 of the reactor 10 is formed between its inner wall and the top of the bed 35, in which the main oxidation of the raw gas supplied takes place.
  • raw gas, clean gas and purge gas are alternately routed through the various heat exchanger areas.
  • the raw gas is fed through the bed 35 in the heat exchanger area 1 of the oxidation chamber 60 and burned there.
  • the resulting clean gas is discharged through the bed 35 in the heat exchanger area 2.
  • the gas in the oxidation chamber 60 must flow from the oxidation chamber area O1 above the heat exchanger area 1 through the recesses 13 ', 14' and 15 'of the partition walls 13, 14 and 15. There is an intensive swirling. This area of the cutouts in the partition walls is therefore also called the swirl area VW.
  • the air in the swirl region VW is heated by the burner 56 and brought to the reaction temperature.
  • the burner must also be switched on if the heat released during the combustion of the exhaust gases is not sufficient to maintain the reaction temperature.
  • the gas flow is adjusted by adjusting the slide or flaps, the connections for raw gas (A1 to A3), clean gas (R1 to R3) and purge gas (S1 to S3) are assigned. It does not matter through which heat exchanger area the raw gas is supplied and through which the clean gas is discharged. Due to the symmetry of the arrangement, the same relationships always result.
  • FIG. 2 schematically shows the pipelines connected to the reactor 10 and the associated valves or flaps.
  • the raw gas is supplied to the connections A1, A2 and A3 and the valves arranged there to the reactor via a line 62, into which a blower 63 or some other air delivery device can optionally be connected.

  • a horizontal line indicates that the temperature of the bed remains essentially unchanged.
  • connection A1, R2 and S3 are initially opened in phase I, so that raw gas is fed via the bed 35 in the heat exchanger area 1 to the oxidation chamber 60 and is oxidized there.
  • This process is exothermic, which means that heat is released.

This means that the flange is placed approximately in the middle or somewhat below the center of the bed area 36. Therefore, the connection point is thermally relatively little stressed and can absorb the weight of the hood better, because it has a higher strength due to the lower temperature.
  • the heat exchangers consist of ceramic bulk material 35 which is heaped up on a sieve plate or a supporting grate 30, 30 '.
  • metal honeycombs could also be used.
  • the dividing walls 13 to 15 are drawn into the hood 47 via the upper edge of the heat exchanger bed in order to achieve the residence time of the hot gases in the oxidation chamber 60 or 76 which is required for the complete combustion of the substances polluting the raw gas.
  • the transition from one area of the heat exchanger to the other takes place via the cutouts or the swirl area VW. The cutouts result in a constriction of the flow, an increase in the speed of the gas flow and subsequently good mixing due to turbulence.
  • the burner 56 in the hood is arranged in such a way that the flue gas is added to the hot gas in the oxidation chamber precisely where there is a high level of turbulence and thorough mixing with the hot gas through the cutouts. Due to the symmetrical shape, when overflowing from each individual heat exchanger area to the other, the same conditions of overflow and admixing of burner flue gas can be achieved, that is to say also when the raw gas is oxidized.
  • the heat losses of the reactor are low because the circular cylindrical design has a small surface area compared to the volume.
  • the height of the reactor is therefore preferably chosen to be approximately equal to its diameter.
  • the partitions 13, 14, 15 and 74 do not necessarily need to be insulated, since the heat they transfer represents a further heat recovery.
  • the peripheral wall 11, 11 'does not have to be bricked up, since its material has no supporting function in the hot area.
  • the hood 47 can be made fireproof on the inside or insulated on the outside. Their rotationally symmetrical shape according to the figures shown here can be produced particularly inexpensively.
  • the masses to be warmed up when starting up are low, since the masses of steel, brick lining and bulk material are small and there are no dead space volumes or dead space masses. Therefore, the heating energy is low and the heating time is short.
  • the hood 47 can also have an upward-facing cavity in the area of the cutouts 13 ', 14' and 15 'or in the swirl area VW, which can also be selected to be large enough that the cutouts in the partition walls can be dispensed with.
  • the swirling of the overflowing gases takes place entirely in the bulge of the cover of the hood when the cutouts are omitted.
  • the central tube 12 then opens into this swirling area formed in the hood.
  • the lower end of the cylindrical housing is the "cold end", which acts as the flow chamber for the Heat exchanger areas can be formed (compare 72 and 73 in Figure 4 and AK1 to AK3 in Figure 1B). Other inflow areas are also possible.
  • the flow chambers have the connections A1 to A3, R1 to R3 and S1 to S3 for raw gas, clean gas and purge gas. Here valves or flaps are provided for the individual connections.
  • hot gas can be removed via the pipe 12 or the connection 55.
  • the removal is controlled by a hot gas flap 90 (FIGS. 1B and 2) or K1 (FIGS. 13 and 14), which is preferably arranged in the “cold area” or is installed in the connection 55.
  • the gases are drawn through the reactor by means of a blower 64 or pushed through by means of a blower 63.
  • the hot air line 12, 55, 80 opens into the clean gas line at the intake port of the blower 64, in the latter case in the clean gas to be removed, that is to say in the gas stream supplied to the chimney.
  • the same design of the reactor can be used for operation with a catalyst.
  • the bulk material 35 is then partially or completely replaced by catalyst bulk material or by a honeycomb catalyst.
  • the reactor then works as a catalytic combustion reactor and is very versatile.
  • the oxidation zone is wholly or partially in the heat exchanger area shifted. Since the operating temperature is lower during catalytic converter operation, appropriate design modifications can be made, for example, other materials can be used, or the wall thicknesses of the reactor can be reduced in part.
  • the reactor described here is very compact and can therefore be transported as a whole. This shortens the installation time at the place of use.
