Definitions

  • the present invention relates to a method for disposing of halogenated and non-halogenated waste materials.
  • halogenated hydrocarbons such as those present in carbon tetrachloride, chloroform, methylene chloride, tetra- and trichlorethylene, tetrachloroethane, PCB, etc. but also in PVC or polyvinylidene chloride, are after use a more or less problematic toxic or hazardous waste it is too Dispose applies.
  • PCBs or TCDD / TCDF are not readily recyclable and must be disposed of in an environmentally sound manner.
  • the disposal takes place either by landfill or by burning on the high seas or in the countryside in high-temperature furnaces with an excess of air.
  • the US-A-4,435,379 describes a process for the decomposition of chlorinated hydrocarbons with metal oxides with the aim to convert all carbon atoms into carbon monoxide. It is important to provide elemental chlorine for the conversion of hydrogen groups in HCI. The total ratio of chlorine to hydrogen groups must be at least 1: 1 in order to produce metal chloride can.
  • the US-A-4,587,116 describes a similar process in which nitrogen-containing waste can be disposed of.
  • the heating also takes place from the outside and not from the inside out.
  • the US-A-4 451 907 discloses a method for eliminating chlorinated organic compounds.
  • the chlorinated organic compounds are vaporized in a molten salt furnace, and then fed to a reactor.
  • the chlorinated organic compounds are heated to 800 to 1200 ° C in the presence of alumina and reactive carbon, and thus decomposed.
  • Nitrogen is used as a carrier gas to pass the vaporized chlorinated organic compounds from the molten salt furnace to the reactor.
  • the EP 0 306 540 describes a process for the production of energy from substituted hydrocarbons, such as, for example, as CCl 4 , CHCl 3 , C 2 H 2 Cl 4 , PCB,
  • the waste material is thermally decomposed in an inductively heatable reactor in the presence of a heavily verhüttbaren metal oxide and an electrically conductive material, such as electrode coke or electrographite and in contact with water vapor at temperatures between 800 and 1100 ° C.
  • a proportion of the metal oxide which corresponds to the chlorine content of the waste converted into volatile metal chloride.
  • a portion of the released carbon is converted into carbon monoxide and the non-metal oxide reactive portion of the carbon is converted to water gas (CO + H 2 ) by a stoichiometric amount of steam.
  • the object of the present invention is to develop a method which allows various halogenated and non-halogenated waste to be disposed of in an environmentally sound manner.
  • This object is achieved by a method for disposing of carbonaceous, hydrogen-containing, halogenated and carbonaceous, hydrogen-containing, non-halogenated waste, in which the waste with TiO 2 , SiO 2 , CaO and / or Fe 2 O 3 or a mixture thereof to the exclusion of Oxygen at temperatures of 800 ° C to 1100 ° C are reacted and generated as a gaseous product consisting of carbon monoxide, methane and hydrogen synthesis gas from which any volatile metal halide compounds formed by cooling are deposited.
  • the method described here is used for environmentally neutral recycling of halogenated and non-halogenated waste.
  • the volume of waste used is largely reduced, so that the least possible residues remain and the largest possible amount of metals / metal compounds is obtained.
  • the aim is to achieve the most positive energy balance possible.
  • carbon dioxide is added as fluidizing gas.
  • the reactor can also be charged with carbon in the form of graphite and / or carbon.
  • metal oxide-containing wastes such as, for example, silicon-containing residues from the metalworking industry, filter dusts, fly ash, fly sands, dump heaps, galvanic sludges, slags, shale residues, etc.
  • Simple quartz sand which consists to about 98% of silicon dioxide (SiO 2 ), is the simplest possible material, which can be used for the implementation.
  • All the above-mentioned materials are characterized by the fact that they contain a relatively high content of halogenatable metal oxides (CaO, SiO 2 , TiO 2 , Fe 2 O 3, etc.).
  • solvents such as carbon tetrachloride, chloroform, methylene chloride, tetra- and trichlorethylene, tetrachloroethane, refrigerants or refrigerants, PCBs, pesticides, fungicides and herbicides, halogenated plastics such as e.g. Insert PVC.
  • a proportion of the metal oxide corresponding to the chlorine content of the waste materials is converted by the above-mentioned process into metal chloride.
  • metal chloride There arise ecologically and economically valuable metal chlorides with silicon and titanium tetrachloride (SiCl 4 , TiCl 4 ) are particularly preferred products.
  • Waste oils, lubricants, greases, paints, paints, tars, waxes, plastics, coolants and solvents, brake fluid or similar non-halogenated substances and materials must be disposed of.
  • thermodynamically preferably formed under these process parameters
  • Reaction or reaction products are primarily gaseous hydrogen (H 2 ) in addition to lower percentages of methane (CH 4 ).
  • the reactor can be brought to the required operating temperatures either by using electrical heating elements (eg heating half-shells) or by using induction heating.
  • the temperatures required for the reaction are in the range of 800 ° C to 1100 ° C.
  • the reaction itself takes place under exclusion of oxygen.
  • the fluidizing gas used is carbon dioxide (CO 2 ).
  • the halogenated compounds are decomposed by the high temperatures into their simplest constituents; in the case of chlorinated hydrocarbons, hydrogen chloride, hydrogen, alkanes and chlorine gas are formed.
  • the chlorine gas and the hydrogen chloride serve as chlorinating agents for the metal oxide-containing products or waste. Products of this chlorination reaction are the thermodynamically preferred metal chlorides.
  • the carbon dioxide (CO 2 ) used as fluidizing gas is completely converted to carbon monoxide (CO) by reaction with the carbon of the decomposed hydrocarbons and by an additional coal or graphite feed in the top of the reactor.
  • All generated halogenated metal compounds are initially in gaseous form. Depending on the starting material, by cooling to room temperature solid, i. crystalline metal compounds are obtained, or by condensation at low temperatures liquid metal compounds.
  • the purity of these compounds is 96% and may be e.g. by a fractional distillation, or rectification called, still be improved.
  • Fig. 1 a diagram of the plant for the disposal of halogenated waste.
  • FIG. 1 1 shows a feed line 1 for the halogenated waste, a feed line 2 for metal oxide products, and a line 3 for discharging unreacted materials 3.
  • a feed 4 blows a fluidizing gas (CO 2 ) into the fluidized bed reactor 5.
  • the reactor 5 is heated by means of a reactor heater 6 to a temperature between 800 ° C and 1100 ° C, so that it comes to the reaction between the halogenated waste and the metal oxide-containing materials in the reactor.
  • the products formed are separated in a solids separator 7 and the solid metal chlorides formed, esp. FeCl 3 are discharged via a line 8.
  • the remaining gases are purified by an activated carbon filter 9 and then compressed by a blower 10.
  • the gases are then cooled in a cooling tank 12, which has a coolant inlet 11 and a coolant discharge 13, so that the remaining metal chlorides are eliminated.
  • These are mainly SiCl 4 .
  • the gases are then fed to a condenser 15 and subjected to alkaline scrubbing in a gas scrubber column 16.
  • the column 16 has a circulating pump 17 for the washing liquid.
  • the remaining synthesis gas, a mixture of CO and H 2 is discharged via the line 18 in the upper part of the gas washing column 16.
  • the various feedstocks such as u.a. Oils, fats, PCBs, CFCs, solvents or the like are fed via a metering device, e.g. an eccentric screw pump, conveyed into the reaction zone. There, a first thermal cleavage of the feedstocks into short-chain hydrocarbons occurs abruptly. By the height of the reaction zone, the residence time of the feedstocks and the resulting fission products is determined.
  • halogenated feedstocks in particular chlorinated materials
  • a reaction between the calcium oxide and the halogen atoms of the feedstocks occurs.
  • reaction product is formed essentially calcium chloride (CaCl 2 ), which remains in the reactor as slag or melt.
  • reaction equation 1 takes into account all essential products which are formed during the disposal or utilization of a halogenated hydrocarbon. The individual products were thermodynamically calculated and experimentally proven.
  • carbon in the form of fine soot particles is also discharged from the reactor.
  • gravity separators such as e.g. a high performance cyclone.
  • the cleaned gases can still be passed through activated carbon filters. Should foreign components still be contained in the process gas, they can be removed either by specific condensation or by gas scrubbing.
