Definitions

  • the invention relates to a method for generating steam by means of hot Process gases, in particular by means of the non-catalytic splitting of Hydrocarbons based on partial oxidation at high pressures and high temperatures generated process gases, in which the Process gases for the generation of saturated steam in a large number of individual flows by means of pipes through a standing container filled with water and are withdrawn in single streams from this and from the container Saturated steam is discharged.
  • hydrocarbons e.g. Gases and oil or oil residues (Residuals) used.
  • gasifying natural gas Natural gas
  • the Pollution of the pipes carrying the gases is relatively low.
  • Residual chemicals in the gas at least temporarily, cause higher pollution, that so-called fouling occur.
  • This object is achieved in that the withdrawn from the container Process gas individual flows each on a tube of a double tube heat exchanger be guided, the other pipe with a different fluid flow is applied, and that at least one tube of the Double tube heat exchanger can be shut off on the gas outlet side.
  • a gas outlet side can be easily Barrier at the end of the gas outlet to use the residual heat Double tube heat exchanger done without everyone else Process gas individual flows must be shut down operationally.
  • the barrier becomes the flow rate in the neighboring Single flows in the waste heat boiler and in the double tube heat exchanger increased and the pipes carrying the individual flows are both in the waste heat boiler also in the double tube heat exchanger due to the speed increase of Deposits cleaned.
  • the barrier can be a purely individual barrier; however, it is also conceivably a small number of double tube heat exchangers merge on the gas outlet side and the barrier after Merge. This procedure also provides in Another one compared to switching off an entire tube bundle heat exchanger Single barrier.
  • Double-tube heat exchangers are known per se (cf. VDI Heat Atlas 1953 - Approximate Heat transfer figures for some types of heat exchangers Bl. C b 5). They preferably consist of at least two coaxial ones Double pipe sections, the inner pipe sections over a -ggfl. detachable connecting bend and its outer pipe sections over one extending perpendicular to the double pipe sections Connection bends are connected to each other.
  • the double tube heat exchanger can preferably be used as a feed water preheater be used for the water to be supplied to the container.
  • the other pipe will have at least part of the double pipe heat exchanger the feed water to be supplied to the container for preheating the Feed water charged.
  • the other pipe it is also possible for the other pipe to have at least one part the double tube heat exchanger with saturated steam removed from the tank is applied to produce superheated steam (superheated steam).
