Description

Die vorliegende Erfindung beschäftigt sich mit der Schockkühlung von Hochtemperaturgasen entsprechend einer Vorrichtung nach Patentanspruch 1 und eines Verfahrens nach Anspruch 5. Desweiteren betrifft die Erfindung die Verwendung der erfindungsgemäßen Vorrichtung und des erfindungsgemäßen Verfahren in einem Hochtemperaturrecyclingverfahren nach Anspruch 11.The present invention relates to the shock-cooling of high-temperature gases according to a device according to claim 1 and a method according to claim 5. Furthermore, the invention relates to the use of the device according to the invention and the method according to the invention in a high-temperature recycling method according to claim 11.

In der Hochtemperaturverfahrenstechnik werden bei einer Vielzahl von Anwendungsfällen Rauchgase durch Zugabe von Flüssigkeiten wie zum Beispiel Wasser schockartig abgekühlt. Man spricht hierbei vom Vorgang des Quenchens, der dafür genutzte Apparat ist die sogenannte Quench.
Das Wasser wird mittels Quenchpumpen im Kreislauf geführt. Zwischen Wassereintritt und Austritt erwärmt sich das Quenchwasser um ca. 10 bis 30 °C. Diese Wärmeenergie wird mittels Quenchwärmetauscher aus dem System abgeführt.
Charakteristisch für den Prozess ist, dass neben der Abkühlung des Gases auch im Gas befindliche Fremdstoffe in der Flüssigkeit abgeschieden werden. Eine Verschmutzung der Wärmetauscher, der Rohrleitungen sowie aller quenchwasserführenden Apparate ist nicht vermeidbar. Deshalb ist eine wiederholte Reinigung notwendig.
In high-temperature process technology, flue gases are rapidly cooled by the addition of liquids such as water in a variety of applications. This is called the process of quenching, the apparatus used for this is the so-called quench.
The water is circulated by means of quench pumps. Between water inlet and outlet, the quench water heats up by approx. 10 to 30 ° C. This heat energy is removed by quench heat exchanger from the system.
Characteristic of the process is that in addition to the cooling of the gas and foreign substances in the gas are deposited in the liquid. Contamination of the heat exchangers, the pipelines and all quench water-conducting apparatus is unavoidable. Therefore, repeated cleaning is necessary.

In der DE 24 16 167 A1 ist eine Vorrichtung zum Kühlen heißer und feuchter Gase, in der DE 100 04 138 A1 eine 2-stufige Synthesegaskühlung beschrieben. Letztlich beschreibt die DE 196 33 830 C2 eine Kühlvorrichtung.In the DE 24 16 167 A1 is a device for cooling hot and humid gases, in the DE 100 04 138 A1 a 2-stage synthesis gas cooling described. Ultimately, that describes DE 196 33 830 C2 a cooling device.

Aufgabe der Erfindung ist es, eine Vorrichtung und ein Verfahren anzugeben, bei dem zum einen die Abkühlung der Gase mit hoher Effizienz erfolgen kann, und zum anderen die Reinigungsarbeiten auf ein Mindestmass reduziert werden können. Des Weiteren ist der Ziel der vorliegenden Erfindung eine Verwendung einer solchen Vorrichtung und eines solchen Verfahrens anzugeben.The object of the invention is to provide a device and a method in which on the one hand, the cooling of the gases can be done with high efficiency, and on the other hand, the cleaning work can be reduced to a minimum. Furthermore, the object of the present invention is to specify a use of such a device and such a method.

Diese Aufgabe wird erfindungsgemäß durch eine Vorrichtung gemäß Patentanspruch 1, ein Verfahren gemäß Patentanspruch 5 und durch eine Verwendung gemäß Patentanspruch 11 gelöst.This object is achieved by a device according to claim 1, a method according to claim 5 and by a use according to claim 11.

Demnach wird zur erfindungsgemäßen Lösung der Aufgabe der Schockkühlung des Hochtemperaturgases, die Entwicklung einer Zweistufen-Quench vorgeschlagen. In zwei entlang der Strömungsrichtung des Hochtemperaturgases nacheinander lokalisierte Stufen bzw. Bereiche des Hochtemperaturgasstromes wird die Kühlung über zwei separate Kühlkreisläufe vorgenommen. Das Quenchwasser wird demnach in zwei getrennten Kreisläufen im Umlauf gehalten.Accordingly, the development of a two-stage quench is proposed to solve the problem of the invention of the shock cooling of the high-temperature gas. In two successively located along the flow direction of the high-temperature gas stages or areas of the high-temperature gas flow, the cooling made via two separate cooling circuits. The quench water is therefore kept in circulation in two separate circuits.

Kreislauf 1 dient zur eigentlichen Schockkühlung des Hochtemperaturgases in einem entlang der Strömungsrichtung des Gases ersten Bereich, wobei hier auch die im Gas enthaltenen festen Partikel abgeschieden werden, - Kreislauf 2 dient zur abschließenden Kühlung in einem entlang der Strömungsrichtung des Gases zweiten Bereich auf Endtemperatur.Circuit 1 serves for the actual shock-cooling of the high-temperature gas in a first region along the flow direction of the gas, in which case also the solid particles contained in the gas are separated, - Circuit 2 serves for the final cooling in a second region along the flow direction of the gas to the final temperature.

Erfindungsgemäß ist die Verwendung einer solchen Vorrichtung bzw. eines solchen Verfahrens zur Kühlung von in einem Hochtemperaturrecyclingverfahren anfallenden Synthesegasen vorgesehen.According to the invention, the use of such a device or such a method for cooling obtained in a high-temperature recycling process synthesis gases is provided.

Die vorteilhafte Wirkung der Erfindung besteht in der Lokalisierung der durch die Schockkühlung abgeschiedenen, festen Partikel in einem begrenzten Bereich der Kühlung. Im Zusammenhang mit der im Folgenden genannten Ausführung ist dann sogar die vollkommene Vermeidung von Verschmutzung von Wärmetauschern durch die abgeschiedenen, festen Partikel möglich.The advantageous effect of the invention is the localization of the solid particles precipitated by the shock cooling in a limited range of cooling. In connection with the embodiment mentioned below, even the complete avoidance of contamination of heat exchangers by the separated, solid particles is possible.

Die Quenchwärmetauscher sind ausschließlich im sauberen Kreislauf 2 angeordnet. Über diese Quenchwärmetauscher wird die im Hochtemperaturgas enthaltene Energie abgeführt. Folglich wird der Kreislauf 1, d. i. der eigentliche Quenchkreislauf, ohne Wärmetauscher ausgeführt. Eine Verschmutzung des ersten Kühlkreislaufes ist somit weitgehend ausgeschlossen.The quench heat exchangers are arranged exclusively in the clean circuit 2. About this Quenchwärmetauscher the energy contained in the high-temperature gas is dissipated. Consequently, the circuit 1, d. i. the actual quench circuit, without heat exchanger. Contamination of the first cooling circuit is thus largely excluded.

Es handelt sich bei der Quenchvorrichtung um einen schlanken Apparat mit einem konzentrisch angeordneten Innenrohr, wobei das heiße Gas von oben in das Innenrohr eintritt und den Apparat von oben nach unten durchströmt. Im unteren Bereich wird das Gas durch eine Umlenkungsvorrichtung umgelenkt, durchströmt danach den äußeren Ringspalt nach oben und verlässt den Apparat am oberen Ende. Die Abkühlung im Innenrohr erfolgt vorzugsweise von 1000 °C bis 2000 °C auf 95 °C bis 70 °C, besonders bevorzugt 85 °C, und im äußeren Ringspalt von 85 °C auf 70 bis 40, vorzugsweise 60 °C.The quench device is a slender apparatus with a concentrically arranged inner tube, wherein the hot gas From above into the inner tube enters and flows through the apparatus from top to bottom. In the lower area, the gas is deflected by a deflection device, then flows through the outer annular gap upwards and leaves the apparatus at the upper end. The cooling in the inner tube is preferably carried out from 1000 ° C to 2000 ° C to 95 ° C to 70 ° C, more preferably 85 ° C, and in the outer annular gap of 85 ° C to 70 to 40, preferably 60 ° C.

Gemäß der Erfindung wird über einen freien Überlauf vom Kreislauf 2 in den Kreislauf 1 Quenchwasser abgeführt.According to the invention quench water is discharged via a free overflow from the circuit 2 in the circuit 1.

In einer weiteren bevorzugten Ausführung erfolgt die Niveaukontrolle der beiden, im Kreislauf 1 und Kreislauf 2 bestehenden Quenchwasserstände über den Quenchwasserstand im Kreislauf 1.
Der Mechanismus der Niveauregulierung wird vorzugsweise durch die Zu- oder Abfuhr von Wasser aus dem Kreislauf 1 realisiert.
In a further preferred embodiment, the level control of the two quench water levels existing in the circuit 1 and circuit 2 takes place via the quench water level in the circuit 1.
The mechanism of the level control is preferably realized by the supply or removal of water from the circuit 1.

Vorzugsweise werden in dem erfindungsgemäßen Verfahren Rauchgase mit Temperaturen von 1000 °C bis 2000 °C, vorzugsweise 1200 °C schockgekühlt. Die Quenchung führt das Hochtemperaturgas von mehr als 1200 °C auf 95 °C bis 70 °C, vorzugsweise 85 °C im ersten, vorzugsweise aus einem Innenrohr bestehenden Bereich.In the process according to the invention, flue gases having temperatures of 1000 ° C. to 2000 ° C., preferably 1200 ° C., are preferably shock-cooled. The quenching leads the high-temperature gas of more than 1200 ° C to 95 ° C to 70 ° C, preferably 85 ° C in the first, preferably consisting of an inner tube area.

Vorzugsweise wird das Verfahren für Abgase mit einem Wassergehalt von 10 Vol% bis 70 Vol%, besonders bevorzugt 30 Vol%, durchgeführt.The process is preferably carried out for waste gases having a water content of 10% by volume to 70% by volume, particularly preferably 30% by volume.
