Definitions

  • the invention relates to a method for granulating and crushing molten material and regrind, wherein the melt is introduced into a mixing chamber in the mixing chamber water, water vapor and / or air / water mixtures be injected and the evaporated water together ejected with the solidified slag via a diffuser becomes.
  • Molten blast furnace slag is usually made with the help granulated by water to obtain an amorphous product which in the glass phase, i.e. solidified in a metastable phase. After a grinding process, such a product can be used as hydraulically active component can be added to cements. The The heat of fusion of the melt flow is such a procedure converted into a low temperature heat of water and is no longer usable.
  • the invention now aims at a method of the beginning to create the kind with which it succeeds in creating the Melting heat of slags is much better thermodynamically to use and the usually required grinding effort in case of further use as a cement aggregate or for grinding clinker for the production of To make cement more energy-efficient.
  • the object of the inventive method is essentially in that the melt is introduced under pressure into the mixing chamber is and the exit beam of the diffuser against one Exit beam of another diffuser is directed. Because the melt, for example with compressed air in a Mixing chamber is introduced and water in the mixing chamber, Water vapor and / or air / water mixtures are injected, creates a rapidly expanding dispersion of solidifying molten material, the expanding gas flow is expelled through a diffuser.
  • the gas flow breaks the particles solidified to amorphous slag glass underneath extreme volume increase with it, taking the thermal energy is converted into kinetic energy, which is a directed flow of the granulated material formed enables.
  • the pressure in the mixing chamber corresponds to essential the flow losses of the formed, strong superheated steam.
  • the heat of slag is mainly converted into flow energy, and it becomes the amorphous Cinder glass particles entrained with the flow.
  • the high kinetic energy is now immediately for the comminution of oversize grain is used, for which the method is carried out so that the exit jet of the diffuser against an exit jet of another Diffuser is directed. By colliding with others particle streams flowing out with high kinetic energy the kinetic energy is used for reduction the energy required for the grinding process, and it takes place thus a far more extensive use of the Melt contained heat than this with known methods was the case.
  • the steam formed in the process according to the invention has a compared to conventional slag pelletizers much higher temperature level, and the steam temperature can be recovered in a conventional manner.
  • the procedure is such that the steam formed withdrawn and passed over a heat exchanger, and that the condensate of the mixing chamber is returned, so that also used water can be circulated.
  • the device according to the invention consists essentially in that a pipe for molten slag with a Mixing chamber is connected to the mixing chamber that lines for water, water vapor and / or water / air mixtures, that a diffuser is connected to the mixing chamber, and that baffles to the outlet opening or further outlet openings for accelerated particles whose axis is the axis cut the outlet opening of the diffuser, are arranged.
  • the blast furnace slag granules formed can with such Furnishing not only in the amorphous glass phase solidify, but also at the same time taking advantage the resulting from thermal energy through conversion kinetic energy are crushed to the extent that a further grinding process can be omitted. So it becomes immediate the thermodynamic energy of the slag melt also for made the grinding process usable.
  • the device according to the invention is advantageously developed in such a way that that the line for molten slag over a nozzle assembly with ring nozzles that can be pressurized with compressed air opens into the mixing chamber, resulting in better dispersion in the mixing chamber, which is designed as a granulating evaporator is can be achieved.
  • the fine dispersion caused by the Compressed air exposure is achieved, allows much simpler facilities for the introduction of Provide pressurized water or steam, the water jet for example, be pushed radially into the mixing chamber can.
  • the training is advantageously made such that between Mixing chamber and diffuser with an injector chamber opposite Diffuser outlet opening less effective Cross section is arranged to which a line for additional regrind or additives is connected, so that under Taking advantage of the injector effect immediately suction or a metered introduction of additives or other regrind in the device according to the invention is possible.
  • 1 denotes a slag melting vessel, from which a slag melt 2 via a tap opening 3 is subtracted.
  • the tap opening 3 opens via an annular nozzle 4 into a mixing chamber 5 of the invention Device for granulating and crushing the Slag, which is designated 6 in total.
  • 6 in total.
  • Compressed air introduced, creating a homogeneous dispersion of the Slag jet is achieved in the mixing chamber 5.
  • To the Mixing chamber 5 also open lines 8 for pressurized water. The Pressure water pushed into the mixing chamber 5 via the lines 8 expands at high speed and can move towards flow out of arrow 9.
  • this outflow Direction of arrow 9 is the granulated particles flow energy given so that the particle flow with the steam the outlet opening 10 of a steam diffuser 11 with high Speed, and thus high kinetic energy of the contained Particles can leave.
  • On the way between the mixing chamber 5 and the steam diffuser 11 is an area 12 with reduced Cross section provided, in which at the same time Form a negative pressure at maximum flow rate can, so that 13 further regrind or Aggregates or additives are drawn in according to the injector principle can be.
  • a storage container 14 is provided, and there is a dosing screw 15 in the feed channel Injector chamber arranged.
  • the regrind designated 22 can after sieving used directly as cement or cement aggregate with any oversize that is still present over the line 13 can be returned to the injector chamber 12.
