Les déchets susceptibles d'être traités selon l'invention sont de préférence solides, hétérogènes et non dangereux.The waste likely to be treated according to the invention is preferably solid, heterogeneous and not dangerous.
Ce sont donc en premier lieu les ordures ménagères mais également les déchets industriels banals comme les résidus de broyage d'automobiles, les pneux usagés, les déchets de plastiques, les boues industrielles ou de stations d'épuration, etc...It is therefore primarily household waste but also ordinary industrial waste such as automobile shredding, used tires, waste plastics, industrial or sewage sludge, etc.
Comme il ressortira mieux de la description qui va suivre, l'invention permet avantageusement de traiter des déchets de tailles très variables, à des débits très variables également.As will become clear from the description which follows, the invention advantageously makes it possible to treat waste from very variable sizes, at very variable flow rates also.
On connait déjà, dans le domaine du traitement thermique de déchets, des installations destinées à réaliser une thermolyse, qui permettent en outre pour la plupart de traiter soit les gaz de thermolyse soit les solides issus de la thermolyse.We already know, in the field of heat treatment of waste, installations intended to carry out thermolysis, which also allow most of them to treat either thermolysis is the solids from thermolysis.
Parmi les documents concernant des dispositifs orientés vers le traitement des solides de thermolyse, on peut citer par exemple le brevet allemand DE 4308551 ou les demandes françaises FR 2 679 009 et FR 2 678 850 toutes deux déposées au nom de la demanderesse.Among the documents concerning oriented devices towards the treatment of thermolysis solids, we can cite by example German patent DE 4308551 or applications French FR 2 679 009 and FR 2 678 850 both filed in the name of the plaintiff.
Le document allemand DE 4308551 présente la caractéristique de gazéifier la fraction fine riche en carbone des résidus solides afin de produire un gaz de synthèse et des scories de fusion. German document DE 4308551 presents the characteristic of gasifying the fine carbon-rich fraction of solid residues to produce synthesis gas and slag of fusion.
Les deux demandes de brevet françaises précitées divulguent en particulier un lavage des solides issues de la thermolyse.The two aforementioned French patent applications disclose in in particular washing the solids from thermolysis.
D'autres documents révèlent plus particulièrement un traitement des effluents ou gaz de thermolyse : dans cette catégorie peuvent être cités la demande de brevet française FR 2 668 774, ou encore le document EP-A1-0302310.Other documents more particularly reveal a treatment of effluents or thermolysis gas: in this category can be mentioned the French patent application FR 2 668 774, or even document EP-A1-0302310.
Selon la demande française FR 2 668 774 un traitement des gaz à chaud, dans le four de thermolyse lui-même, peut être opéré : ceci permet de pouvoir réutiliser directement les gaz de pyrolyse, sans autre traitement. Plus particulièrement selon ce document, les gaz de pyrolyse sont employés pour chauffer, directement ou indirectement, les déchets.According to French request FR 2 668 774 a treatment of gases at hot, in the thermolysis oven itself, can be operated: this allows to be able to directly re-use the pyrolysis gases, without further treatment. More particularly according to this document, the pyrolysis gases are used to heat, directly or indirectly, waste.

Cet art antérieur permet, on le voit, d'améliorer le processus de thermolyse au plan des implications sur les rejets gazeux ou solides qu'il génèrent. Les normes de plus en plus sévères sur l'environnement, en projet ou déjà en vigueur dans la plupart des pays industrialisés, contraignent en effet les opérateurs à mettre en oeuvre des installations de moins en moins polluantes. Les rejets de N0x et de MCI, HF, SO2, Co, cendres volantes, mâchefer, etc sont en particulier soumises à des normes de plus en plus strictes.This prior art makes it possible, as we can see, to improve the thermolysis process in terms of the implications for the gaseous or solid discharges that it generates. Increasingly stringent environmental standards, planned or already in force in most industrialized countries, force operators to install less and less polluting installations. Releases of N0 x and MCI, HF, SO 2 , Co, fly ash, clinker, etc. are in particular subject to increasingly strict standards.

Cependant l'art antérieur précité n'améliore que l'un ou l'autre des produits de thermolyse à savoir soit les effluents gazeux soit les produits solides.However, the aforementioned prior art improves only one or the other of the thermolysis products, namely either gaseous effluents or products solid.
Par ailleurs au plan énergétique, la consommation et surtout le bilan énergétique global restent des paramètres sous-estimés voire négligés dans l'art antérieur.In addition to energy, consumption and especially the balance sheet energy consumption remain underestimated or even neglected parameters in the prior art.
La présente invention a pour objet de remédier à ces inconvénients. Elle permet notamment une meilleure valorisation du contenu énergétique des déchets. The object of the present invention is to remedy these drawbacks. It allows in particular a better valorization of the energy content garbage.

menée à une température comprise entre 200 et 800°C et de
préférence entre 350 et 600°C. Le four tournant est entouré
d'une double enveloppe 3 équipée de moyens de combustion
comme des brûleurs (non référencés), permettant de générer la
puissance thermique nécessaire au chauffage des déchets. Les
brûleurs peuvent être alimentés, de façon connue, par une partie
GT1 des gaz de thermolyse, ou par tout autre combustible comme
du fioul ou du gaz naturel.During their progress in
Les conditions réactionnelles de la thermolyse permettent la rétention dans les solides carbonés de la quasi-totalité des gaz acides, notamment l'acide chlorhydrique produit lors de la décomposition thermique des plastiques chlorés comme le PVC. Cette auto-neutralisation des composants acides par des matières basiques toujours présentes dans les déchets est favorisée, entre autres, par l'atmosphère réductrice ainsi que les basses températures auxquelles les déchets sont soumis durant la thermolyse. En augmentant la composante basique des déchets par ajout d'absorbant calcique ou sodé, on améliore le rendement de captation des gaz acides par les solides carbonés. L'épuration des solides carbonés qui est décrite plus bas permet d'éliminer en particulier les sels de chlore résultant de la captation des gaz acides. De même, les températures de traitement étant faibles et la thermolyse étant réalisée à l'abri de l'oxygène, les métaux lourds ne sont ni volatilisés ni oxydés, et restent donc concentrés dans les solides carbonés (SC).The reaction conditions of thermolysis allow the retention in carbon solids of almost all gases acids, in particular hydrochloric acid produced during the thermal decomposition of chlorinated plastics such as PVC. This self-neutralization of acid components by materials always present in the waste is favored, between others, by the reducing atmosphere as well as the bass temperatures to which the waste is subjected during the thermolysis. By increasing the basic component of waste by adding calcium or sodium absorbent, the yield is improved of capture of acid gases by carbonaceous solids. Purification carbonaceous solids which is described below makes it possible to eliminate in in particular the chlorine salts resulting from the capture of gases acids. Likewise, the processing temperatures being low and thermolysis being carried out away from oxygen, metals heavy are neither volatilized nor oxidized, and therefore remain concentrated in carbon solids (SC).
A la sortie du four rotatif 1, les solides carbonés (SC) sont
évacués par un dispositif 4 garantissant l'étanchéité vis à vis de
l'extérieur (vanne rotatives, sas à vannes guillotines, ou tout
autre dispositif équivalent permettant de réaliser cette fonction).
Les solides carbonés (SC) sont acheminés vers un dispositif
d'épuration 6 qui a pour but de séparer une partie des matières
inertes et d'éliminer les polluants solubles, notamment les sels de
chlore, présents dans les solides carbonés. Le détail du dispositif
d'épuration des solides carbonés 6 est décrit plus en détail plus
bas, en relation avec la figure 3. A la suite du traitement
d'épuration, les solides carbonés épurés (SCE) peuvent être
dirigés vers un dispositif de combustion 5, constitué ici d'un foyer
cyclone à cendres fondues.At the outlet of the
Comme il a déjà été dit, une partie du gaz de thermolyse
(GT1) peut être utilisée pour chauffer le four tournant par
combustion par exemple dans des brûleurs situés dans la double
enveloppe 3 entourant le four tournant 1. La fraction
excédentaire (GT2) des gaz de thermolyse peut être dirigée vers
un dispositif de combustion, par exemple le foyer cyclone à
cendres fondues 5.As already mentioned, part of the thermolysis gas
(GT1) can be used to heat the rotary kiln by
combustion for example in burners located in the
Le foyer cyclone à cendres fondues 5 est un foyer adapté à la combustion de combustibles solides fortement chargés en cendres à bas point de fusion. Il se caractérise par une turbulence élevée et une mise en rotation de l'écoulement, ce qui permet d'obtenir un temps de séjour important du combustible et une bonne rétention des cendres. Il fonctionne à des températures de l'ordre de 1000 à 1500°C. A ces températures, les cendres fondent et s'écoulent à l'état fondu hors du réacteur. The cyclone molten ash hearth 5 is a hearth suitable for the combustion of solid fuels heavily loaded with low melting ash. It is characterized by turbulence high and a rotation of the flow, which allows obtain a significant residence time of the fuel and a good ash retention. It operates at temperatures of around 1000 to 1500 ° C. At these temperatures, the ashes melt and flow in the molten state out of the reactor.
Les avantages de ce type de foyer par rapport aux dispositifs traditionnels de combustion sont les suivants : une quantité d'imbrûlés faible due au temps de séjour important des particules dans le foyer, des cendres inertes car vitrifiées, une compacité importante due à l'importante densité de feu de l'installation, des possibilités d'étagement de l'air de combustion permettant de minimiser la formation d'oxydes d'azote, et une combustion stable même lorsque les caractéristiques du combustible varient notablement.The advantages of this type of fireplace compared to traditional combustion devices are: small amount of unburnt due to the long residence time of the particles in the hearth, inert as vitrified ash, a significant compactness due to the high fire density of installation, possibilities for staging the combustion air to minimize the formation of nitrogen oxides, and a stable combustion even when the characteristics of the fuel vary significantly.
L'intérieur du foyer cyclone 5 peut être préférentiellement recouvert d'un revêtement en céramique réfractaire capable de supporter des températures de l'ordre de 1500°C. L'injection des solides carbonés épurés (SCE) se fait pneumatiquement par une ou plusieurs entrées tangentielles rectangulaires ou circulaires réparties sur un périmètre du cyclone. On peut également injecter dans une ou plusieurs de ces entrées un complément d'air de combustion et/ou tout ou partie de l'excédent du gaz de thermolyse GT2. Sur un second périmètre du foyer cyclone, d'autres entrées tangentielles peuvent être installées afin d'effectuer des injections complémentaires d'air de combustion ou de combustible gazeux comme tout ou partie de l'excédent du gaz de thermolyse GT2. Enfin, une injection d'air complémentaire peut être effectuée à la sortie supérieure du foyer cyclone, afin d'améliorer le rendement de combustion.The interior of the cyclone hearth 5 may preferably be covered with a refractory ceramic coating capable of withstand temperatures of the order of 1500 ° C. The injection of purified carbon solids (SCE) is done pneumatically by a or more tangential rectangular or circular inputs distributed over a perimeter of the cyclone. We can also inject one or more of these inputs with a complement combustion air and / or all or part of the excess gas GT2 thermolysis. On a second perimeter of the cyclone hearth, other tangential inputs can be installed so perform additional injections of combustion air or gaseous fuel as all or part of the surplus of the GT2 thermolysis gas. Finally, an additional air injection can be carried out at the upper outlet of the cyclone hearth, so improve combustion efficiency.
La combustion dans le foyer cyclone à cendres fondues est optimisée de façon à minimiser les émissions de polluants gazeux. Le partage de l'air de combustion entre les différentes entrées sera donc effectué de manière à assurer une combustion totale des solides carbonés épurés et du gaz de thermolyse, et à minimiser la formation d'oxydes d'azote et d'imbrûlés. D'autre part, on pourra préchauffer tout ou partie de l'air de combustion, afin de faciliter l'obtention de températures élevées dans le foyer cyclone.Combustion in the cyclone hearth is optimized to minimize emissions of gaseous pollutants. The sharing of combustion air between the different inlets will therefore be carried out so as to ensure total combustion purified carbon solids and thermolysis gas, and minimize the formation of nitrogen oxides and unburnt materials. Else part, we can preheat all or part of the combustion air, to facilitate obtaining high temperatures in the hearth cyclone.
Le foyer cyclone à cendres fondues permet
avantageusement d'immobiliser définitivement les éléments
polluants présents dans les solides carbonés épurés, notamment
les métaux lourds, par piégeage dans la matrice vitreuse formée
lors de la fusion des matières minérales contenues dans les
solides carbonés épurés. Les températures obtenues lors de la
combustion des solides carbonés épurés (SCE) et de l'excédent du
gaz de thermolyse GT2 sont suffisantes pour fondre ces matières
minérales. Les cendres ainsi fondues (CF) s'écoulent hors du foyer
5 et tombent dans un bac d'eau 10 où elles sont refroidies. Lors
de leur refroidissement, les cendres forments des granulats
solides. Ces granulats sont inertes vis à vis de la lixiviation ce qui
permet de les recycler et de les réutiliser dans des applications
routières ou travaux publics par exemple.The cyclone hearth with molten ash allows
advantageously to immobilize the elements definitively
pollutants present in purified carbon solids, in particular
heavy metals, by trapping in the vitreous matrix formed
during the melting of the mineral materials contained in the
purified carbon solids. The temperatures obtained during the
combustion of purified carbon solids (SCE) and of the surplus of
GT2 thermolysis gases are sufficient to melt these materials
mineral. The ashes thus melted (CF) flow out of the hearth
5 and fall into a
Les fumées chaudes (F) issues de la combustion mixte des
solides carbonés épurés et d'une partie des gaz de thermolyse
dans le foyer cyclone 5 sont ensuite dirigées vers un dispositif de
récupération d'énergie 11 comme un échangeur thermique, une
chaudière produisant de la vapeur ou de l'eau chaude, ou une
chaudière couplée à une turbine permettant de produire de
l'électricité. Puis ces fumées sont dépoussiérées dans un dispositif
12 qui peut être un filtre à manches ou un dépoussiéreur
électrostatique, et renvoyées à l'atmosphère par l'intermédiaire
d'un extracteur 13 et d'une cheminée 14 via une ligne 35. Les
cendres issues respectivement du dispositif de récupération
d'énergie 11 et du dépoussiéreur 12 sont mélangées avec les
solides carbonés épurés puis envoyées dans le foyer cyclone 5 via
respectivement les lignes 36 et 37. Les cendres sont vitrifiées
dans le foyer-cyclone 5, permettant ainsi l'inertage des polluants
adsorbés sur ces poussières.The hot fumes (F) from the mixed combustion of
purified carbon solids and part of the thermolysis gases
in the cyclone focus 5 are then directed to a device for
Un deuxième mode de réalisation de l'invention est
représenté sur la figure 2. La différence essentielle entre le mode
de réalisation déjà décrit et celui qui va être décrit maintenant
réside en ce que les solides carbonés épurés et les gaz issus de la
thermolyse des déchets sont brûlés dans deux dispositifs séparés.
Comme dans le premier mode de réalisation de l'invention, une
partie du gaz de thermolyse (GT1) est utilisée pour chauffer le
four tournant par combustion par exemple dans des brûleurs
situés dans la double enveloppe 3 entourant le four tournant 1.
Ici la fraction excédentaire (GT2) est envoyée vers une chambre
de combustion classique 15 équipée d'un brûleur à gaz. Les
configurations du brûleur et de la chambre de combustion
permettent de minimiser la formation d'oxydes d'azote lors de la
combustion du gaz de thermolyse, et garantissent la destruction
de tous les composés organiques grâce à un temps de séjour des
gaz d'au moins 2 secondes à 850°C.A second embodiment of the invention is
shown in Figure 2. The essential difference between the mode
of realization already described and the one which will be described now
resides in that the purified carbon solids and the gases from the
thermolysis of the waste is burned in two separate devices.
As in the first embodiment of the invention, a
part of the thermolysis gas (GT1) is used to heat the
oven rotating by combustion for example in burners
located in the
Les solides carbonés épurés (SCE) sont brûlés dans un foyer
cyclone à cendres fondues 5 d'une conception identique à celle
décrite plus haut mais d'une puissance thermique inférieure, en
mélange avec les cendres issues du dispositif de dépoussiérage
des fumées 12 et du dispositif de récupération d'énergie 11.
Comme précédemment, la température atteinte lors de la
combustion des solides carbonés épurés est suffisante pour
permettre la fusion des cendres et donc emprisonner les
polluants dans la matrice vitreuse. A la sortie du foyer, les
cendres fondues (CF) s'écoulent dans un bac d'eau 10 où elles
sont refroidies et solidifiées de façon à produire des granulats
inertes. L'air de combustion est étagé comme décrit
précédemment et tout ou partie de cet air pourra également être
préchauffé afin d'améliorer le bilan thermique de l'opération.Purified carbon solids (SCE) are burned in a fireplace
cyclone with molten ash 5 of a design identical to that
described above but with a lower thermal power, in
mixing with the ashes from the
Les fumées chaudes (F) issues de la combustion des gaz de
thermolyse (GT2) dans la chambre de combustion 15 et celles
issues de la combustion des solides carbonés épurés (SCE) dans le
foyer cyclone 5 sont mélangées et envoyées sur un dispositif de
récupération d'énergie 11 comme un échangeur thermique, une
chaudière produisant de la vapeur ou de l'eau chaude, ou une
chaudière couplée à une turbine permettant de produire de
l'électricité. Puis ces fumées sont filtrées dans un dispositif 12 et
renvoyées à l'atmosphère par l'intermédiaire d'un extracteur 13
et d'une cheminée 14. Les cendres et poussières issues du
dispositif de récupération d'énergie 11 et du dépoussiéreur 12
sont mélangées avec les solides carbonés épurés puis envoyées
dans le foyer cyclone 5 afin d'être vitrifiées, permettant ainsi
l'inertage définitif des polluants adsorbés sur ces poussières.The hot fumes (F) from the combustion of
thermolysis (GT2) in
Le mode de réalisation de l'invention selon la figure 2 présente un fonctionnement plus souple que celui selon la figure 1. En particulier il est possible conformément à ce mode de réalisation d'arrêter le foyer-cyclone 5 lorsque la consommation énergétique globale est faible. Dans ce cas, les solides carbonés épurés (SCE) ne sont pas envoyés vers le foyer-cyclone 5, mais stockés. Par contre en période de forte demande énergétique (l'hiver par exemple), le foyer-cyclone 5 fonctionne comme indiqué ci-dessus. Les combustibles stockés peuvent alors être brûlés dans cette période.The embodiment of the invention according to Figure 2 has a more flexible operation than that according to the figure 1. In particular it is possible in accordance with this mode of realization of stopping the hearth-cyclone 5 when consumption overall energy is low. In this case, the carbonaceous solids purified (SCE) are not sent to the home-cyclone 5, but stored. However, in times of high energy demand (winter, for example), the cyclone 5 fireplace functions as indicated above. The stored fuels can then be burned in this period.
Ce mode de réalisation de l'invention permet donc une très bonne adéquation entre la demande d'énergie et le besoin.This embodiment of the invention therefore allows a very good match between energy demand and need.
Le dispositif d'épuration des solides carbonés 6 tel que
représenté sur la figure 3 va maintenant être décrit.The device for purifying
En sortie du four tournant 1, les solides carbonés (SC) sont
évacués via un dispositif étanche 4 et tombent par gravité dans
un bac agité 16 rempli d'eau à température ambiante, ce qui
permet le refroidissement des solides. L'agitation du mélange,
assurée par exemple par rotation d'un arbre portant des pales 17,
est telle que les particules les plus lourdes composées
essentiellement de métaux, de matières minérales ou de verre, se
déposent au fond du bac, alors que les particules plus légères
riches en carbone sont maintenues en suspension. Dans le fond du
bac 16 peut être immergé une vis, un tapis, un racleur ou tout
autre dispositif équivalent 18 permettant l'extraction en continu
des matières minérales déposées au fond du bac.At the outlet of the
Ce premier bac 16 permet donc le refroidissement des
solides carbonés ainsi que la séparation d'une partie des matières
minérales contenues dans les solides carbonés.This
Les matières minérales inertes extraites par le dispositif 18
d'extraction sont ensuite rincées par de l'eau sur un tamis vibrant
19 surmonté par une rampe de pulvérisation d'eau 20, afin
d'éliminer les particules de carbone déposées sur ces matières
minérales. L'eau de rinçage souillée par ces particules de carbone
peut être envoyée par une pompe 21 vers le premier bac de
décantation 16.Inert mineral matter extracted by the
L'opération de rinçage des matières minérales peut bien entendu être réalisée par d'autres moyens que ceux qui viennent d'être décrits sans sortir du cadre de la présente invention.The mineral material flushing operation may well heard to be achieved by other means than those who come to be described without departing from the scope of the present invention.
Par ailleurs, le mélange eau-solides carbonés en suspension
dans le bac 16 est repris par une pompe 22, puis envoyé dans un
second bac laveur parfaitement agité 23 contenant de l'eau
maintenue à une température comprise entre 40 et 95°C, et de
préférence entre 75 et 85°C. Cette température est maintenue
constante dans le bac 23 grâce à une régulation de température
24 raccordée à une résistance électrique ou à tout autre dispositif
équivalent permettant de maintenir la température de l'eau à
une valeur de consigne. Le temps de séjour des solides carbonés
dans le bac 23 est compris entre 15 et 120 minutes. Le rapport
massique eau/solides carbonés est compris entre 1 et 100 et de
préférence entre 5 et 15. Cette opération permet de solubiliser
essentiellement les sels chlorés formés lors de l'étape de
thermolyse. Les métaux lourds ne sont pas solubilisés et restent
concentrés dans les solides carbonés.In addition, the mixture of water and carbonaceous solids in suspension
in the
Avant leur introduction dans le bac agité 23, les solides
carbonés peuvent être broyés dans un broyeur 25 opérant en
phase liquide, afin de diminuer la granulométrie moyenne des
particules carbonées et d'accélérer l'étape de lavage. Cette étape
peut également être suivie par une étape de séparation sur un
tamis calibré 26 permettant de séparer les feuilles d'aluminium
contenues dans les solides carbonés (SC). Cette opération est
notamment nécessaire lorsque les solides carbonés proviennent
de la thermolyse des déchets ménagers. Une pulvérisation d'eau
27 est maintenue sur le tamis contenant les feuilles d'aluminium
afin d'éliminer les particules de carbone déposées à la surface de
celles-ci. Cette dernière opération permet de récupérer les
feuilles d'aluminium qui peuvent ensuite être recyclées et
valorisées. Before their introduction into the stirred
A la sortie du bac de lavage 23, la suspension eau-solides
carbonés est reprise par une pompe 28 puis dirigée vers un
dispositif de filtration 29 qui a pour but d'éliminer l'eau chargée
en chlorures des solides carbonés. Cette opération peut être
effectuée avec une centrifugeuse, un filtre à bandes sous vide, ou
tout autre dispositif de filtration permettant de séparer l'eau des
solides carbonés.At the outlet of
En sortie du dispositif de filtration 29, les solides carbonés
épurés secs, ou ne contenant plus qu'une quantité réduite
d'humidité, sont stockés dans un silo 30. Les eaux usées issues de
la filtration sont dirigées si nécessaire vers un dispositif de
traitement d'eau 34 permettant de précipiter les sels chlorés,
puis réinjectées dans le premier bac de décantation 16. Un
appoint d'eau neuve est réalisé en permanence grâce aux
dispositifs 20 et 27.At the outlet of the
Dans certains cas, les étapes de décantation et lavage telles
que décrite ci-dessus peuvent être réalisées dans le même bac,
remplissant simultanément les fonctions des bac 16 et 23, dont la
température est maintenue entre 40 et 95°C. Le dispositif
précédent se trouve alors simplifié.In some cases, the decanting and washing steps such
as described above can be carried out in the same tank,
simultaneously fulfilling the functions of
Après cette opération d'épuration, on dispose d'un combustible riche en matières carbonées et débarrassé d'une partie de ces éléments polluants, qui peut être immédiatement brûlé pour générer de l'énergie dans le foyer cyclone à cendres fondues, ou bien être stocké en vue d'une combustion ultérieure.After this purification operation, we have a fuel rich in carbonaceous materials and free of part of these pollutants, which can be immediately burned to generate energy in the cyclone ash hearth fondues, or be stored for later combustion.
De ce qui précède il ressort que la présente invention permet la valorisation du contenu énergétique de déchets grâce à la production d'un combustible solide et d'un combustible gazeux épurés, et à leur combustion.From the above it appears that the present invention allows the recovery of the energy content of waste thanks to the production of solid fuel and gaseous fuel purified, and their combustion.
En outre le dispositif 6 d'épuration des solides carbonés
selon l'invention permet d'éliminer une partie des matières
minérales et de récupérer des matériaux valorisables tels que
l'aluminium. Ce dispositif permet en outre d'augmenter la qualité
du combustible produit, en diminuant son taux de cendres et sa
teneur en éléments polluants. Enfin il augmente son pouvoir
calorifique.In addition, the
Par ailleurs l'utilisation selon l'invention d'un foyer cyclone à cendres fondues avec étagement de l'air de combustion permet de brûler les solides carbonés épurés et/ou tout ou partie des gaz issus de la thermolyse des déchets, et ceci sans émission de composés polluants dans les effluents gazeux ou solides de la combustion.Furthermore, the use according to the invention of a cyclone hearth molten ash with combustion air staging allows to burn the purified carbon solids and / or all or part of the gases from thermolysis of waste, and this without emission of polluting compounds in gaseous or solid effluents from the combustion.
Le procédé de traitement de déchets selon l'invention permet d'éviter la dispersion des polluants, puisque la quasi totalité des polluants est concentrée dans les solides carbonés. Une partie de ces polluants est ensuite éliminée par le traitement d'épuration des solides carbonés, l'autre partie étant immobilisée dans les granulés inertes issues de la combustion dans le foyer cyclone à cendres fondues.The waste treatment method according to the invention avoids the dispersion of pollutants, since almost all of the pollutants are concentrated in carbon solids. Some of these pollutants are then removed by treatment purifying carbonaceous solids, the other part being immobilized in inert pellets from combustion in the hearth cyclone with molten ash.
L'invention concerne la réalisation d'un système complet de traitement de déchets qui supprime les émissions de polluants dans les fumées issues de la combustion des gaz de thermolyse et des solides carbonés, si bien que le seul traitement de fumées à mettre en oeuvre est un simple dépoussiérage. L'invention permet donc d'éviter la mise en place de dispositifs de traitement de fumées par lavage, ce qui diminue le coût du traitement des déchets par rapport à celui des techniques classiques comme l'incinération.The invention relates to the realization of a complete system of waste treatment that removes pollutant emissions in the fumes from the combustion of thermolysis gases and carbonaceous solids, so the only smoke treatment to implement is a simple dusting. The invention thus avoids the installation of treatment devices of smoke by washing, which reduces the cost of treating waste compared to that of conventional techniques like incineration.
