  • the invention relates to a device for burning Bio dust masses and bio solid masses.
  • Biomass for heating and thermal disposal are available, for example, logs, chips, Sawdust, wood chips, bio fine dust and bio coarse dust.
  • the progressive development of manufacturing technologies in the wood processing industry has not only been shortened Workpiece run times, but also at a significant finer, dusty production waste, which in the Industry and craft today a share of 70 to 80% (Percent) of the wood residues.
  • Another user Wood burning is the bakery trade. The combustion such residues is a challenge to the Firemaker. The regularly used grate with additional Primary air addition achieved in most combustion plants no longer the required low emission values.
  • EP-A-0 473 618 is a device of the beginning known type known, in which a helical gas flow is produced.
  • a helical gas flow is produced.
  • This device is with a Link head blower equipped.

  • the oil and gas combustion takes place predominantly in one rotating flame instead.
  • the invention is based, based on the task Prior art described above a device for burning bio dust and bio solids specify the least possible pollutants arise and be emitted.
  • the device according to the invention means for the woodworking Industry and the bakery trade a big one technical progress in terms of thermal Energy generation and disposal of residual materials.
  • Old and new biomass furnaces can be used with the Equipped or inventive device be retrofitted.
  • Such a device according to the invention can with a through a frequency converter regulated link head blower according to EP 0 344 498 or with an impeller operated with perforated blading become.
  • the fresh air can be drawn in and in the shaft flange area be used for engine cooling. Fresh air can too fed to the blower area via separate suction openings, set in rotation and accelerated compactly. The accordingly rotating fresh air is then over a Annulus supplied to the mixing room, in addition from the Returned hot gas mixed furnace and then the Combustion process fed.
  • the blower area and mixing chamber can be one in terms of component firmly connected "gas mixer tap" arise.
  • the This gas mixer tap has a combustion chamber in terms of flow subordinate.

  • the spiral-shaped combustion air roller is targeted end of the ember bed surface.
  • the amount of dust from the combustion material remains oppressive as it were the mixed gas fire roller in the ember bed lie. That means that in the over the ember bed rotating fire roller there is hardly any residual dust.
  • the Residual dust discharge is therefore very low.
  • the combustion can therefore be influenced and regulated in an optimal manner become.
  • a secondary air addition and part of a primary air addition can be done via the swirl nozzle, in one Spirally rotating gas roller in the axial outflow direction towards the ember bed.
  • Another primary air addition in the The front lower ember bed area can be inserted via gas blow-out nozzles take place in the front wall of the outer Heat shield can be placed. Your air jet can then end and act in the ember bed in the axial outflow direction, especially in the lower area of the ember bed.
  • the dust With coarse or fine dust injection furnaces, the dust becomes the Spirally rotating gas roller added via injection nozzles. Dusts with a large coarse fraction are preferred tangential in the wall area - with 15 ° (old degree) to 45 ° (Old degree) inclined to the center axis - blown in.
  • the ignition must be in the downstream cyclone furnace a gas or oil pilot burner can be placed that the Combustion monitored for safety reasons. Finer, drier The proportion of dust burns immediately. The one that is released Heat build-up, visible as a flame in the ignition area, stabilized the cracking phase of the coarser residual dust in the Rotation decreasing, becoming more unstable, always visible permanent, endlessly rotating, cyclone-like fire roller.
  • Dust filter especially in larger systems, become necessary.
  • the baffle plate which is designed as a heat shield in the present example, has a central opening.
  • the gases flowing back from the combustion chamber into the mixing chamber are not completely diverted radially outwards on the baffle plate, but rather flow partly directly into the blower device and then back into the mixing chamber via the annular space. This has a stabilizing influence on the rotating gas roller in the mixing room and can also be referred to as internal NO x reduction.
