Abstract
Description
Die Erfindung betrifft ein Verfahren sowie eine Anlage zur thermischen Verwertung von organische und anorganische Bestandteile enthaltenden Abfallstoffen wie Hausmüll, Klärschlamm oder dergleichen, wobei die Abfallstoffe in einem Drehrohrofen unter Bildung von Pyrolysegas verschwelt werden und der bei der Schwelung erhaltene Pyrolysekoks nach seiner mechanischen Aufbereitung in einem Vergasungszyklon unter Zusatz von Sauerstoff zu einem Synthesegas vergast wird.The invention relates to a method and a plant for the thermal utilization of waste materials containing organic and inorganic constituents, such as household waste, sewage sludge or the like, the waste materials being carbonized in a rotary kiln to form pyrolysis gas and the pyrolysis coke obtained during the smoldering after its mechanical processing in one Gasification cyclone is gasified with the addition of oxygen to a synthesis gas.
Beim Verfahren zur thermischen Verwertung von organische und anorganische Bestandteile enthaltenden Abfallstoffen (Hausmüll, Klärschlamm oder dergleichen) der älteren, aber nicht vorveröffentlichten Patentanmeldung P 43 38 927.9, von dem die Erfindung ausgeht, werden die zerkleinerten Abfallstoffe in einem Drehrohrofen unter Bildung von Pyrolysegas verschwelt und der bei der Schwelung erhaltene Pyrolysekoks wird nach seiner mechanischen Aufbereitung mit Abtrennung von Metallen und anderen Wertstoffen in einem Vergasungszyklon unter Zusatz von Sauerstoff zu einem Synthesegas vergast, welches dann seinem Verwendungszweck zugeführt wird. Die bei der Hochtemperatur-Vergasung nicht vergasungsfähigen Inhaltsstoffe werden aus dem Vergasungszyklon als schmelzflüssige Schlacke abgezogen, die nach ihrer Erstarrung laugungsresistent deponiert werden oder als Baustoff Verwendung finden kann. Das aus dem Drehrohrofen als Schwelreaktor abgezogene heiße Pyrolysegas wird dadurch thermisch verwertet, indem es in einem Abhitzekessel zwecks Dampferzeugung verbrannt wird.In the process for the thermal utilization of waste materials (domestic waste, sewage sludge or the like) containing organic and inorganic constituents of the older but not prepublished patent application P 43 38 927.9, from which the invention is based, the shredded waste materials are carbonized in a rotary kiln with the formation of pyrolysis gas and The pyrolysis coke obtained during the smoldering is gasified after its mechanical processing with separation of metals and other valuable substances in a gasification cyclone with the addition of oxygen to a synthesis gas, which is then used for its intended purpose. The ingredients that cannot be gasified in high-temperature gasification are withdrawn from the gasification cyclone as molten slag, which after solidification can be deposited in a leach-resistant manner or used as a building material. The hot pyrolysis gas drawn off from the rotary tube furnace as a smoldering reactor is thermally utilized in that it is burned in a waste heat boiler for the purpose of generating steam.
Da die vom Drehrohrofen als Schwelreaktor abgezogenen heißen Pyrolysegase in der Hauptsache aus gasförmigen Kohlenwasserstoffen und Wasserdampf sowie geringen Anteilen an Stickstoff, Kohlenmonoxid, Kohlendioxid und anderen gasförmigen Schadstoffen bestehen, ist es nicht zu vermeiden, daß die dampfförmigen Komponenten des heißen Pyrolysegases auf dem Wege ihrer Abkühlung im Abhitzekessel oder danach im Rauchgaskanal kondensieren. Die kondensierbaren Pyrolysegasbestandteile ergeben aber bei Raumtemperatur ein Gemisch aus Wasser sowie flüssigen und festen Kohlenwasserstoffen, wobei dieses Gemisch wiederum einen Reststoff ergibt, der verhältnismäßig aufwendig entsorgt werden muß.Since the hot pyrolysis gases drawn off from the rotary kiln as a smoldering reactor mainly consist of gaseous hydrocarbons and water vapor and small amounts of nitrogen, carbon monoxide, carbon dioxide and other gaseous pollutants, it cannot be avoided that the vaporous components of the hot pyrolysis gas cool down on the way condense in the waste heat boiler or afterwards in the flue gas duct. However, the condensable pyrolysis gas constituents result in a mixture of water and liquid and solid hydrocarbons at room temperature, this mixture in turn resulting in a residue which has to be disposed of in a relatively complex manner.
Beim Verfahren zur Erzeugung von brennbaren Gasen aus Abfallstoffen der EP-B 0 152 912 werden die Abfallstoffe in einem Drehreaktor verschwelt, und das bei der Schwelung gewonnene Pyrolysegas wird nach einer Gasreinigung bei Temperaturen von 800 bis 1200°C teilweise verbrannt und dann durch eine glühende Schicht von stückigem Fremdkoks zum Zwecke des Crackens crackbarer Gasbestandteile geleitet. Der bei der Schwelung anfallende ausgeschwelte Pyrolysekoks wird nach einer mechanischen Aufbereitung deponiert, das heißt der im Pyrolysekoks enthaltene Kohlenstoff wird nicht zur Energieerzeugung herangezogen.In the process for the production of flammable gases from waste materials of EP-B 0 152 912, the waste materials are carbonized in a rotary reactor, and the pyrolysis gas obtained during the smoldering is partially burned after gas cleaning at temperatures of 800 to 1200 ° C. and then by a red-hot one Layer of chunky foreign coke passed for the purpose of cracking crackable gas components. The pyrolysis coke that is produced during the smoldering process is deposited after mechanical processing, i.e. the carbon contained in the pyrolysis coke is not used to generate energy.
Schließlich ist aus der DE-Z "Müll und Abfall" 8/1993, Seiten 569 bis 572 ein "Schwel-Brenn-Verfahren" zur thermischen Entsorgung von Abfällen wie Hausmüll und Klärschlamm bekannt, bei dem die Abfälle in einer Drehtrommel bei ca. 450°C verschwelt werden. Der anfallende feste Schwelreststoff wird dann nach seiner mechanischen Aufbereitung in einer Brennkammer bei einer Temperatur von ca. 1300°C verbrannt, und zwar unter Einsatz des von der Schweltrommel abgezogenen brennbaren Pyrolysegases, welches in derselben Brennkammer verbrannt wird. Bei diesem bekannten Verfahren fallen als gasförmige Produkte ausschließlich Rauchgase an, keinesfalls ein Synthesegas oder Brenngas.Finally, from DE-Z " Rubbish and Waste" 8/1993, pages 569 to 572 a " smoldering process" for the thermal disposal of waste such as household waste and sewage sludge is known, in which the waste in a rotary drum at about 450 ° C become smeared. The resulting solid smoldering residue is then burned in a combustion chamber at a temperature of approx. 1300 ° C, using the combustible pyrolysis gas drawn off from the smoldering drum, which is burned in the same combustion chamber. In this known method, only flue gases are produced as gaseous products, in no case a synthesis gas or fuel gas.
Der Erfindung liegt die Aufgabe zugrunde, die eingangs beschriebene thermische Verwertung von organische und anorganische Bestandteile enthaltenen Abfallstoffen wie Hausmüll, Klärschlamm etc. mit Schwelung der Abfallstoffe und Hochtemperaturvergasung des Pyrolysekokses in einem Vergasungszyklon so zu gestalten, daß außer einer laugungsresistenten Schlacke nicht ein Rauchgas, sondern ausschließlich ein hochwertiges CO + H₂-reiches Synthesegas entsteht, ohne daß die Gefahr einer unerwünschten Kondensatbildung bei der Gasabkühlung besteht.The invention has for its object the thermal utilization of waste materials, such as household waste, sewage sludge, etc., described above, with organic and inorganic constituents with smoldering of the waste materials and to design high-temperature gasification of the pyrolysis coke in a gasification cyclone in such a way that, in addition to a leach-resistant slag, not a flue gas, but only a high-quality CO + H₂-rich synthesis gas is produced without the risk of undesired formation of condensate during gas cooling.
Diese Aufgabe wird verfahrensmäßig mit den Maßnahmen des Anspruchs 1 und vorrichtungsmäßig mit den Maßnahmen des Anspruchs 4 gelöst. Vorteilhafte Ausgestaltungen sind in den Unteransprüchen angegeben.In terms of method, this object is achieved with the measures of claim 1 and in terms of the device with the measures of claim 4.

Charakteristisch für das erfindungsgemäße Verfahren ist, daß das bei der Schwelung erhaltene Pyrolysegas in heißem nicht abgekühltem Zustand von zum Beispiel ca. 400 bis 650°C direkt in den Vergasungszyklon eingeführt wird, in welchem der Kohlenstoff des Pyrolysekokses sowie die Kohlenwasserstoffe des Pyrolysegases bei Temperaturen oberhalb 1400°C zu einem CO + H₂-reichen Synthesegas umgesetzt werden. Im Hochtemperatur-Vergasungszyklon erfolgt also eine möglichst vollständige Ausnutzung sowohl des im Pyrolysekoks enthaltenen Kohlenstoffs nach der Bruttoreaktion
Nach einem weiteren Merkmal der Erfindung kann das aus dem Drehrohrofen abgezogene heiße Pyrolysegas vor Einführung in den Vergasungszyklon entstaubt und der Staub in den Vergasungszyklon eingeführt werden. Es handelt sich dabei um eine trockene Pyrolysegasentstaubung bei einer Temperatur oberhalb der Kondensationstemperatur der dampfförmig mit dem Pyrolysegas mitgeführten Kohlenwasserstoffe sowie des Wasserdampfes.According to a further feature of the invention, the hot pyrolysis gas drawn off from the rotary tube furnace can be dedusted before introduction into the gasification cyclone and the dust can be introduced into the gasification cyclone. It is a dry pyrolysis gas dedusting at a temperature above the condensation temperature of the hydrocarbons carried in vapor form with the pyrolysis gas and of the water vapor.
Der Pyrolyse-Drehrohrofen kann indirekt beheizt sein. Nach einem weiteren Merkmal der Erfindung kann der Pyrolyse-Drehrohrofen aber auch direkt beheizt werden, indem eine Teilmenge des aufbereiteten Schwelreststoffes bzw. Pyrolysekokses vor dessen Einführung in den Vergasungszyklon abgezweigt und zum direkt beheizten Drehrohrofen rezirkuliert wird zwecks Bildung eines im Drehrohrofen liegenden heißen Tauchbetts, innerhalb dessen die in den Drehrohrofen eingeführten Abfallstoffe verschwelt werden. Die zur Aufrechterhaltung der Schwelung im Pyrolyse-Drehrohrofen erforderliche Energie wird in den Drehrohrofen durch das heiße Tauchbett aus den rezirkulierten ungekühlten Schwelreststoffen eingebracht, sowie auch durch Verbrennung von Brennstoff, zum Beispiel einer Teilmenge des erzeugten Synthesegases im Drehrohrofen.The pyrolysis rotary kiln can be indirectly heated. According to a further feature of the invention, the pyrolysis rotary kiln can also be heated directly by branching off a portion of the processed smoldering residue or pyrolysis coke before its introduction into the gasification cyclone and recirculating it to the directly heated rotary kiln to form a hot immersion bed lying in the rotary kiln of which the waste materials introduced into the rotary kiln are carbonized. The energy required to maintain the smoldering in the pyrolysis rotary kiln is introduced into the rotary kiln through the hot immersion bed from the recirculated uncooled smoldering residues, as well as through combustion of fuel, for example a part of the synthesis gas generated in the rotary kiln.
Eine erfindungsgemäße Anlage zur thermischen Verwertung von organische und anorganische Bestandteile enthaltenen Abfallstoffen mit Pyrolyse-Drehrohrofen und Hochtemperatur-Vergasungszyklon ist dadurch gekennzeichnet, daß der Austrag des Pyrolyse-Drehrohrofens für den Pyrolysekoks über eine mechanische Aufbereitung mit dem Vergasungszyklon verbunden ist, und der Pyrolysegas-Abzug des Drehrohrofens über einen Staubabscheider ebenfalls mit dem Vergasungszyklon verbunden ist.A plant according to the invention for the thermal utilization of waste materials containing organic and inorganic constituents with a pyrolysis rotary kiln and a high-temperature gasification cyclone is characterized in that the discharge of the pyrolysis rotary kiln for the pyrolysis coke is over a mechanical preparation is connected to the gasification cyclone, and the pyrolysis gas discharge from the rotary kiln is also connected to the gasification cyclone via a dust separator.
Die Erfindung und deren weitere Merkmale und Vorteile werden anhand des in der Zeichnung schematisch dargestellten Ausführungsbeispieles näher erläutert.The invention and its further features and advantages are explained in more detail with reference to the exemplary embodiment shown schematically in the drawing.
Gemäß zeichnerischem Ausführungsbeispiel werden zerkleinerte organische und anorganische Bestandteile enthaltene Abfallstoffe (10) wie Hausmüll, Klärschlamm oder dergleichen in einen Pyrolyse-Drehrohrofen (11) eingeführt und dort unter Bildung von Pyrolysegas (12) verschwelt, und der bei der Schwelung erhaltene Pyrolysekoks (13) wird seiner mechanischen Aufbereitung (14) mit Zerkleinerung, Abtrennung von Metallen sowie in Inertstoffen (15) sowie ggfs. weiteren Sortierstufen zugeführt.According to the illustrative embodiment, comminuted organic and inorganic constituents containing waste materials (10) such as household waste, sewage sludge or the like are introduced into a rotary pyrolysis furnace (11) and carbonized there to form pyrolysis gas (12), and the pyrolysis coke (13) obtained during the smoldering process is fed to its mechanical processing (14) with comminution, separation of metals and in inert substances (15) and, if necessary, further sorting stages.
Nach seiner mechanischen Aufbereitung (14) wird der Pyrolysekoks (16), gebracht auf eine Komgröße von < 3 mm, in einen Hochtemperatur-Vergasungszyklon (17) eingebracht und dort mit unterstöchiometrisch eingebrachtem Sauerstoff (18) oder sauerstoffangereicherter Luft bei einer Temperatur oberhalb 1400°C zu einer Schlackenschmelze sowie zu einem Synthesegas umgesetzt, wobei beide Phasen (19) den Vergasungszyklon bzw. Schmelzzyklon (17) nach unten verlassen. Das bei der Schwelung im Drehrohrofen (11) erhaltene Pyrolysegas (12) wird nach seiner Staubabscheidung (20) in heißem nicht abgekühlten Zustand über Leitung (21) ebenfalls in denselben Vergasungszyklon (17) eingeführt, in welchem also sowohl der Kohlenstoff des Pyrolysekokses (16) als auch die Kohlenwasserstoffe des Pyrolysegases (21) nach den oben angegebenen Bruttoreaktionsgleichungen zu einem CO + H₂-reichen Synthesegas umgesetzt werden. Dabei wird der im Pyrolysegas (21) enthaltene Wasserdampfanteil verbraucht, so daß sich bei einer Abkühlung des Synthesegases keine unerwünschten Kondensate mehr bilden können, die einen wiederum aufwendig zu entsorgenden Reststoff bedeuten würden.After its mechanical preparation (14), the pyrolysis coke (16), brought to a grain size of <3 mm, is introduced into a high-temperature gasification cyclone (17) and there with substoichiometrically introduced oxygen (18) or oxygen-enriched air at a temperature above 1400 ° C converted to a slag melt and to a synthesis gas, both phases (19) leaving the gasification cyclone or melting cyclone (17) downwards. The pyrolysis gas (12) obtained during the smoldering in the rotary tube furnace (11) is also introduced into the same gasification cyclone (17) after its dust separation (20) in a hot, not cooled state via line (21), in which both the carbon of the pyrolysis coke (16 ) and the hydrocarbons of the pyrolysis gas (21) can be converted to a CO + H₂-rich synthesis gas according to the gross reaction equations given above. The water vapor contained in the pyrolysis gas (21) is consumed, so that when the synthesis gas cools, undesired condensates can no longer form, which in turn would mean a residual material which is difficult to dispose of.
Der im Staubabscheider (20) vom heißen Pyrolysegas (12) abgetrennte Staub wird über Leitung (22) sowie Leitung (16) in den Vergasungszyklon (17) eingeführt. Die aus dem Vergasungszyklon (17) austretenden Phasen (19) Schlackenschmelze einerseits und Gasphase andererseits werden in einem Unterofen (23) anschließend in eine Schlacke (24) sowie in das hochwertige CO + H₂-reiche Synthesegas (25) voneinander getrennt. Die Schlacke (24) liegt schmelzflüssig vor, was für eine Weiterverarbeitung, beispielsweise zur Herstellung von Steinwolle ausgenutzt werden kann. Nach ihrer Abkühlung sind in die Schlacke etwa vorhandene Schadstoffe wie beispielsweise Schwermetalle laugungsresistent eingebunden, so daß die Schlacke (24) auch problemlos deponiert werden oder als Baustoff Verwendung finden kann.The dust separated from the hot pyrolysis gas (12) in the dust separator (20) is introduced into the gasification cyclone (17) via line (22) and line (16). The emerging from the gasification cyclone (17) phases (19) melt slag on the one hand and gas phase on the other hand are then separated from one another in a sub-furnace (23) into a slag (24) and into the high-quality CO + H₂-rich synthesis gas (25). The slag (24) is molten, which can be used for further processing, for example for the production of rock wool. After it has cooled, any existing pollutants, such as heavy metals, are incorporated in the slag so that they are resistant to leaching, so that the slag (24) can also be deposited without problems or used as a building material.
Wie in der Zeichnung durch gestrichelte Linie angezeigt, kann eine Teilmenge (26) der aufbereiteten Schwelreststoffe abgezweigt und zum in diesem Falle direkt beheizten Drehrohrofen (11) rezirkuliert werden zwecks Bildung eines im Drehrohrofen (11) liegenden heißen Tauchbettes, innerhalb dessen die in den Drehrohrofen eingeführten Abfallstoffe (10) verschwelt werden. Die das Tauchbett bildenden aufbereiteten feinkörnigen Schwelreststoffe (26) werden ungekühlt in den Drehrohrofen (11) rezirkuliert, und ein Teil der durch die Schwelung freigesetzten Schwelgase bzw. Pyrolysegase verbrennt oberhalb des Tauchbettes im Drehrohrofen (11) und hält dort einen nahezu autarken Betrieb des Schwelvorganges aufrecht, der im Bedarfsfall aber durch Verbrennung von zusätzlich zugeführtem Brennstoff, zum Beispiel eines Teilstroms des erzeugten Synthesegases (25), unterstützt werden kann. Innerhalb des Pyrolyse-Drehrohrofens (11) sorgt das vorhandene Tauchbett dafür, daß nur Schwelgasanteile verbrennen, während die Abfallstoffe (10) durch das Tauchbett vor einem Kontakt mit Verbrennungssauerstoff weitgehend geschützt bleiben.As indicated by the dashed line in the drawing, a subset (26) of the processed smoldering residues can be branched off and recirculated to the rotary kiln (11), which is directly heated in this case, to form a hot immersion bed in the rotary kiln (11), within which the rotary kiln imported waste materials (10) are carbonized. The processed fine-grained smoldering residues (26) forming the immersion bed are recirculated uncooled into the rotary kiln (11), and part of the smoldering gases or pyrolysis gases released by the smoldering burns above the immersion bed in the rotary kiln (11) and maintains an almost self-sufficient operation of the smoldering process upright, which, if necessary, can be supported by burning additional fuel, for example a partial flow of the synthesis gas (25). Inside the pyrolysis rotary kiln (11), the existing immersion bed ensures that only carbonized gas components burn, while the waste materials (10) remain largely protected from contact with combustion oxygen by the immersion bed.
