Definitions
- the invention relates to a process for drying sludge, in particular sewage sludge, in which a mixture of a carrier material which is part of the granular solid matter from a dryer, and sludge this dryer supplied and a hot gas or air are passed over it.
- Such methods are e.g. known from WO 93/24800 or US 5,069,801. These known methods are commonly used in response to fluctuating Dry matter content of the sludge is the burner temperature or dryer inlet temperature regulated accordingly. However, this means that when drier material the temperature must be lowered, resulting in a reduction of drying performance. If more moist sludge is added, the dryer inlet temperature must be can be increased, quickly reaching the limits of the burner and sufficient drying only by reducing the throughput can be achieved, which usually has to be done by hand.
- the aim of the invention is therefore to provide a method in which the operating conditions of the dryer are kept constant.
- a further development of the invention is characterized in that the amount of carrier material is regulated depending on the dryer inlet temperature of the hot gas. Thereby can conveniently adapt the system to a desired heating output of the dryer.
- An advantageous embodiment of the invention is characterized in that the Regulating the feed quantity of the sludge by regulating the speed of the first metering device, especially a feed screw. This can make it easier and cost-effective way of a well-functioning adjustment of the supply amount respectively.
- a favorable development of the invention is characterized in that the Regulation of the amount of carrier material by regulation of the speed of a second dosing device, in particular a carrier material feed screw.
- a second dosing device in particular a carrier material feed screw.
- a further advantageous embodiment of the invention is characterized in that the hot gas is a Burner exhaust air, possibly mixed with recirculated air, is.
- a favorable development of the invention is characterized in that the hot gas is a is circulating air heated in a heat exchanger, the circulating air can be heated by a burner exhaust air or a thermal oil.
- An advantageous embodiment of the invention is characterized in that the Dryer is a drum dryer, fluid bed or disc dryer.
- FIG. 1 a variant of a sludge drying system
- Fig. 2 another variant of a sludge drying system.
- Pre-dewatered sludge 1 is fed to a container 2, from which it passes through a Feed screw 3, which is driven by a controllable motor 4, one Mixer 5 fed and from there via a further mixing and conveying screw 5 'in reaches the dryer 6.
- a dryer 6 can in addition to the three-pass drum dryer shown a fluid bed or disc dryer can also be used.
- the Dried material is fed through a drying line 7 through a Cutter or cyclone 8 fed and via a rotary valve 10 to one Screw conveyor 11 forwarded.
- the fine solid particles that remain after the Cyclones 8 remaining in the air are separated in a subsequent filter 9 and also fed to the screw conveyor 11.
- the granular solid is further fed via a lock 12 to a screening plant 13, in which large granules are fed to a crusher 14, and the granules with the desired grain size via a line 15 to packaging and transport devices is promoted.
- a partial stream of the desired Grain can be fed to the crusher.
- the material crushed in the crusher 14 is mixed with the finest particles from the sieve 13 and on a screw conveyor 16 and a subsequent conveyor lift 17 fed to a carrier material silo 18. From this the carrier material is fed via a carrier material feed screw 19, which is driven by a speed-controlled motor 20, the Mixer 5 supplied.
- the energy for drying is shown in FIG. 1 by a Burner 21 generates its heat in a heat exchanger 22 to the circulating air emits.
- the burner exhaust gas is partly by means of a fan 23 Line 24 fed back to the burner or via a line 25 into the exhaust stack 26 directed and released from there to the environment.
- the one in the heat exchanger 22 heated circulating air is fed via line 27 to dryer 6.
- the dry air is conveyed by a filter 9 arranged after it Fan 28. This also ensures that in the area of the air system, in the material is conveyed, there is a negative pressure and therefore no dust on the Environment can be delivered.
- the hot, moisture-laden air becomes after the fan 28 fed to a washer / condenser 29, in which Cooling water is injected. Then the now cooled and dried Air through a line 30 back to the heat exchanger 22 and thus a new one Use fed.
- a partial flow of air is from the scrubber 29 through a Line 31 fed to the burner for combustion.
- the dryer inlet temperature in line 27 is via a temperature sensor 32 measured and the burner outlet temperature in line 7 by means of a Temperature sensor 33.
- a Temperature sensor 33 To the desired temperature of the dryer supply air (32) ensure the signal of temperature sensor 32 is used to supply fuel to regulate by means of a valve 34. Gas or can be used as fuel Oil can be used.
- an appropriate inlet temperature can be set be specified for the dryer. This can e.g. to be the case if the too drying sludge amount is low and by reducing the drying temperature energy savings for the burner on the one hand and for the exhaust gases on the other hand, a reduction in emissions can be achieved.
- the temperature sensor 32 changes the dryer inlet temperature Signal given to the motor 20 of the substrate feed screw 19, the Reduced the amount of carrier material at a lower dryer inlet temperature becomes. This reduces the dry content of the feed to the dryer Mixture of sludge and carrier material and subsequently also occurs lower dryer outlet temperature.
- Regulation also reduces the amount of sludge 1 supplied, thereby again the mixture fed to the dryer has a constant dry content having. Overall, the total throughput through the dryer reduced.
- the invention is not limited to the illustrated embodiments, but rather could e.g. thermal oil is also used instead of the burner to heat the circulating air become.
- Fig. 2 shows a sludge drying system in which the exhaust air of the burner 21st is fed directly to dryer 6 via line 27.
- the one from the washer / condenser 29 incoming air 30 is the burner 21 as combustion air fed.
- Excess moist air passes from the washer / condenser 29 a line 31 'into the environment, with filter systems possibly also here can be interposed.
- the outlet temperature from the dryer is changed Control of the inlet temperature kept constant.
- the outlet temperature is 90 ° C.
- Sludge with a higher dry content naturally increases the amount of dry sludge accordingly.
- the table shows that e.g. at a sludge dry content of 27% the outlet temperature from the Dryer would rise to 98 ° C.
- the sludge drying system becomes a sludge with a lower dry content supplied, here can e.g. recognize at a dry matter content of 23% that the air outlet temperature from the dryer would be 79 ° C.
- the air inlet temperature By Increasing the air inlet temperature to 462 ° C again becomes an outlet temperature reached from 90 ° C.
- the necessary inlet temperature e.g. 478 ° C with a dry matter content of 20%, with even lower ones Keeped dry the high temperatures can no longer be achieved. In this case, the amount of sludge supplied must be reduced.
- the inlet temperature of the air in front of the dryer is reduced.
- a temperature of 400 ° C is set, for example.
- the amount of the backmix sludge is now reduced by regulating the feed screw. As a result of this reduction of the dry backmix sludge, more humid sludge is fed into the dryer, as a result of which the outlet temperature from the dryer is reduced according to Example 2.
- the regulation also reduces the feed quantity of the sludge accordingly, so that, for the given dryer inlet temperature, the desired constant dryer outlet temperature of here 90 ° C. is again reached. Fluctuations in the dry matter content of the supplied sludge are compensated for analogously as described previously in Example 3 or Example 4, only the dryer inlet temperature and thereby the amount of the backmix sludge being reduced.
