Definitions

  • the present invention relates to a method for the combustion of solids, in particular for waste incineration, in a combustion boiler, which comprises at least one combustion chamber and an afterburning chamber, water vapor being introduced into the combustion boiler.
  • the oxygen concentration in the moist flue gas after the incineration boiler is usually about 10% by volume.
  • the air excess in this case is about 150%, corresponding to an air ratio of 2.5.
  • Between 20 and 40% of the combustion air is usually blown in as secondary air. A reduction in the secondary air leads to poorer burnout of the fuel gases, a reduction in the primary air leads to poorer burnout of the slag.
  • Another task of the secondary air is to achieve a certain flame control. This is to break the thermals in the 1st pass of the combustion boiler (afterburning chamber) and thus create a narrow range of dwell times in the 1-pass. This goal has so far been achieved only incompletely.
  • the use of tertiary air to break the thermals is only of limited use because of the additional air volume, since cooling results in, among other things, additional CO formation and further flue gas volumes.
  • a significant disadvantage of the previous methods is the high secondary or tertiary air required for the safe combustion of the exhaust gases and for breaking the thermals. quantity.
  • the addition of these large amounts of air is only possible if the amount of primary air is reduced at the same time, although the burnout result on the grate is endangered. Increasing the amount of flue gas also leads to a shorter average residence time in the first train. Optimal pollutant degradation is therefore not guaranteed.
  • the adiabatic combustion temperature is reduced by the increased amount of air. The temperature reduction in the area of the steam generator is accordingly flat. This significantly reduces the use of heat.
  • Object of the present invention is a process for the combustion of solid materials to develop, with which it 'is possible to reduce the pollutants in the flue gas. Either the amount of flue gas should be considerably reduced while maintaining the same heat output, or vice versa the fuel throughput should be increased significantly. The process should be able to operate with as little excess air as possible. At the same time, the disadvantages of the known methods are to be largely avoided. The method is said to be particularly suitable for use in waste power plants.
  • Determining the mixing energy which according to the invention is introduced into the combustion boiler via the steam. is brought, the set pressure and the volume flow of the water vapor.
  • a value of at least 1 bar should be selected as the minimum overpressure for the water vapor. Below this value, the volume flow of the water vapor must be set very high in order to ensure sufficient mixing energy.
  • the amount of flue gas can then be reduced slightly at most.
  • undesirably high water contents in the flue gas can result.
  • the highest possible excess pressure of the water vapor should therefore be provided. The upper limit is only determined by the justifiable expenditure on apparatus.
  • the volume flow of the water vapor to be set depends on the overpressure, with a higher volume requiring a lower volume flow and vice versa.
  • the volume flow is preferably selected so that a mixing energy
  • the area in the combustion boiler that is directly detected by the blown-in water vapor is referred to as the turbulence space.
  • the volume V_ of the turbulence space can e.g. B. can be determined using the following formula:
  • V T ( ; * d hydr. 2) * (a * d resumey_r.)
  • the mixing energy to be introduced can also be related to the exhaust gas volume.
  • mixing energies are preferably in the range between 0.03 and
  • the temperature when entering the afterburning chamber should preferably be in the range between 1273 and 1673 K in order to ensure adequate combustion of the pollutants. Above 1673 K there is a risk of increased NO formation even with lower oxygen levels in the flue gas.
  • the mean residence time of the flue gases in the afterburning chamber at temperatures> 1123 K can be increased to such an extent that the degradation of pollutants is considerably promoted.
  • FIG. 1 A conventional combustion plant for solids according to the prior art is shown schematically in FIG. 1.
  • the grate 3 In the lower area of the combustion boiler 1, the grate 3 is arranged, on which the solids, such as garbage or coal, are burned with the addition of primary air 9.
  • the combustion chamber 2 Immediately above the grate 3 is the combustion chamber 2, which merges upwards into the afterburning chamber 4, corresponding to the 1st draft of the boiler.
  • the hot flue gases generated during combustion in the combustion chamber 2 first flow through the afterburning chamber 4. They are then passed via the second train 5 of the boiler 1 to the evaporators and superheaters 6 and the ECO 7. Dust and pollutants are then removed in a flue gas cleaning system 8.
  • the supply takes place via secondary air nozzles 10, which are arranged in the combustion chamber 2 in the region of the transition to the afterburning chamber 4.
  • additional tertiary air can be blown in via tertiary air nozzles 11 which are installed in the afterburning chamber 4.
  • only primary air is used as combustion air.
  • Secondary and tertiary air are completely replaced by water vapor.
  • the water vapor is blown in with a volume flow which is far below the usually used secondary or tertiary air volume flow.
  • the water vapor is introduced at an overpressure which is clearly above the usual secondary or tertiary air pressure (approx.
  • the amount of fuel and the amount of primary air can be reduced with the same steam output when secondary or tertiary air is fully replaced.
  • the primary air volume and the fuel volume can be reduced by 10%, for example.
  • the amount of primary air is preferably reduced to such an extent that the excess air is between the value of 150% customary for such combustion plants and a lower limit of 20%. With an air excess of 20%, the oxygen content in the flue gas is approx. 2%. If this value is undershot, the pollutants of the flue gases have a very aggressive effect on the boiler wall.
  • the steam can be blown in via nozzles of any design.
  • nozzles designed for supersonic operation are used, since this enables a particularly good conversion of pressure energy into kinetic energy.
  • the nozzles can be installed at any suitable locations in the boiler wall, preferably in the area where the combustion gases exit from the combustion chamber 2 and / or directly in the area of the afterburning chamber 4.
  • the nozzles are preferably arranged in one or more nozzle planes.
  • Existing systems can be converted in a simple manner to the method according to the invention by directly installing the nozzles for the water vapor instead of existing secondary and / or tertiary air nozzles.
  • water vapor according to the method according to the invention in particular does not promote the formation of CO and NO in the flue gas.
  • water vapor is produced in the steam generators 6, 7 of the incineration plant and is therefore available inexpensively and in sufficient quantities.
  • the radiation properties of the flue gases are improved by the higher water vapor partial pressure. So that increases the heat transfer by radiation and thus the heat use in the radiation part of the boiler considerably.
  • the increase in heat transfer due to radiation proceeds disproportionately. The heat transfer increases z. B.
  • gases or gas mixtures could also be used instead of water vapor, which are also composed in such a way that they do not promote the formation of CO and NO in the flue gas, such as, for. B. recycled flue gas or nitrogen and other inert gases or mixtures thereof.
  • these gases are usually present under normal pressure or only a slight excess pressure, so that an extraordinarily high outlay on equipment would be necessary to set the high pressures required for the process according to the invention.
  • the amount to be supplied is so high that the advantages of the method according to the invention cannot be achieved.
  • the hot flue gas can e.g. B. can be returned via one or more connecting channels from the 2nd train to the 1st train of the boiler.
  • the water vapor nozzles are preferably arranged concentrically in the connecting channels for the recirculated flue gas. Due to the injector effect of the steam injected under high pressure, part of the hot flue gases is sucked out of the 2nd draft of the boiler and injected into the combustion boiler together with the water vapor without complex measures. Because the pressure to be overcome. Ratios for this flue gas recirculation are very low, only a correspondingly small amount of steam is required for this.
  • the amount of flue gas is considerably reduced with the same net heat output, with full replacement of the secondary or tertiary air and withdrawal of the primary air (corresponding to the lower fuel throughput) by about 20 to 40%.
  • the fuel throughput can be increased by up to 40% without the need for special measures in the flue gas path, in particular in the flue gas purification system.
  • the use of heat is increased by up to 15%.
  • the dust load on the heating surfaces in the entire boiler and the load on the flue gas cleaning falls at least in accordance with the reduced quantity of flue gas, the travel time of the furnace being significantly extended, among other things.
  • the combustion temperatures in the inlet to the post-combustion chamber are significantly increased, controllable via the amount of primary air supplied, which ensures better burnout.
  • the pollutant quantities and concentrations in the exhaust gas are significantly reduced, especially CO and NO ⁇ .
  • the drive power required for the air fans and the induced draft can be reduced in accordance with the reduced amount of air.
  • Downstream flue gas cleaning systems can be designed accordingly smaller.

Abstract

Il est décrit un procédé pour la combustion de matières solides, en particulier pour l'incinération d'ordures dans une chaudière, laquelle comprend au moins un foyer et une chambre de post-combustion. A cet effet, de la vapeur d'eau - au lieu d'air secondaire ou tertiaire - est injectée par une buse dans la chaudière en au moins un endroit après l'échappement des gaz de combustion hors du foyer, avec une pression élevée et un faible débit volumétrique. De l'air primaire exclusivement est ajouté comme air de combustion. De cette manière on réussit notamment à augmenter l'efficacité du processus global en utilisant une quantité minimum d'air de combustion tout en réduisant en même temps l'émission de substances nocives. En outre, il devient possible d'amener avec la vapeur d'eau du gaz de fumée chaud, ce qui permet de régler de manière simple et à des valeurs optimales, p. ex. les températures maximales, la chute de température ainsi que les temps de séjour dans les 1er et 2e carneaux du bassin de combustion.
