Claims (6)

  1. Procédé de commande d'un four de gazéification et fusion (3, 4), destiné à commander ledit four de gazéification et fusion (3, 4), comportant un four de gazéification (3) destiné à gazéifier un matériau résiduaire à l'entrée, un four de fusion (4) configuré de manière à brûler les constituants combustibles contenus dans le gaz de pyrolyse produit dans ledit four de gazéification (3) et introduit dans le four de fusion (4) et à fondre les cendres dans le gaz de pyrolyse, et un brûleur (40) destiné à assurer une combustion secondaire, agencé dans ledit four de fusion (4), ledit procédé de commande comprenant :
    la commande d'arrêt de fonctionnement dudit brûleur (40) lorsque l'état opérationnel dudit four de gazéification et fusion (3, 4) remplit une condition spécifique d'arrêt de brûleur ;
    la commande d'arrêt de chargement du matériau résiduaire dans ledit four de gazéification (3) à un instant pour lequel la température à l'intérieur dudit four de fusion (4) à proximité dudit brûleur (40) chute à une température d'arrêt de chargement de déchets après l'arrêt du fonctionnement dudit brûleur (40) ; et
    le ré-allumage dudit brûleur (40) à un instant pour lequel la concentration en oxygène dans le gaz délivré à partir dudit four de gazéification (3) audit four de fusion (4) augmente jusqu'à une concentration de ré-allumage de brûleur prédéfinie après que le chargement du matériau résiduaire a été arrêté.
  2. Procédé de commande du four de gazéification et fusion selon la revendication 1, dans lequel ledit brûleur (40) est ré-allumé indépendamment de la concentration en oxygène à un instant pour lequel la température à l'intérieur dudit four de fusion (4) à proximité dudit brûleur (40) augmente jusqu'à une température prédéfinie, supérieure à la température d'arrêt de chargement de déchets, après l'arrêt du fonctionnement dudit brûleur (40).
  3. Procédé de commande de four de gazéification et fusion (3, 4) selon la revendication 1 ou 2, dans lequel la condition d'arrêt de brûleur comporte le fait qu'un état dans lequel la température à l'intérieur dudit four de fusion (4), à proximité dudit brûleur (40), ou une valeur moyenne glissante de celle-ci, est supérieure ou égale à une température d'arrêt de brûleur prédéterminée, est maintenu pendant une durée spécifique.
  4. Dispositif de commande de fonctionnement d'un four de gazéification et fusion (3, 4) destiné à commander le fonctionnement dudit four de gazéification et fusion (3, 4) comportant un four de gazéification (3) destiné à gazéifier un matériau résiduaire à l'entrée, un four de fusion (4) configuré de manière à brûler les constituants combustibles contenus dans le gaz de pyrolyse produit dans ledit four de gazéification (3) et introduit dans le four de fusion (4) et à fondre les cendres dans le gaz de pyrolyse, et un brûleur (40) destiné à assurer une combustion secondaire agencé dans ledit four de fusion (4), ledit dispositif de commande de fonctionnement comprenant : un dispositif d'alimentation de déchets (2) destiné à charger le matériau résiduaire dans ledit four de gazéification (3) et un thermomètre (46) destiné à détecter la température à l'intérieur dudit four de fusion (4) à proximité dudit brûleur (40) ; le dispositif de commande de fonctionnement étant caractérisé en ce que :
    le dispositif de commande comprend en outre : un analyseur d'oxygène (45) destiné à détecter la concentration en oxygène dans le gaz délivré à partir dudit four de gazéification (3) audit four de fusion (4) ; et un dispositif de commande (50) destiné à commander le fonctionnement dudit four de gazéification (3) sur la base de résultats de détection dudit thermomètre (46) et dudit analyseur d'oxygène (45), ledit dispositif de commande (50) comportant : une unité de commande de brûleur (52) qui délivre un signal de commande d'arrêt de brûleur afin d'arrêter le fonctionnement dudit brûleur (40) lorsqu'un état opérationnel dudit four de gazéification et fusion (3, 4) remplit une condition spécifique d'arrêt de brûleur ;
    une unité de commande de chargement de déchets (54) qui délivre un signal d'instruction d'arrêt de chargement de déchets afin d'arrêter ledit dispositif d'alimentation de déchets, empêchant de charger le matériau résiduaire dans ledit four de gazéification (3) à un instant pour lequel la température détectée par ledit, thermomètre chute à une température d'arrêt de chargement de déchets prédéfinie après l'arrêt du fonctionnement dudit brûleur (40) ; et
    l'unité de commande de brûleur (52) délivre un signal de commande de ré-allumage de brûleur afin de ré-allumer ledit brûleur (40) à un instant pour lequel la concentration en oxygène détectée par ledit analyseur d'oxygène (45) augmente jusqu'à une concentration de ré-allumage de brûleur prédéfinie après que ledit dispositif d'alimentation de déchets (2) a arrêté le chargement du matériau résiduaire.
  5. Dispositif de commande de fonctionnement du four de gazéification et fusion (3, 4) selon la revendication 4, dans lequel l'unité de commande de brûleur (52) délivre le signal de ré-allumage de brûleur indépendamment de la concentration en oxygène à un instant pour lequel la température détectée par ledit thermomètre (46) augmente jusqu'à une température prédéfinie supérieure à la température d'arrêt de chargement de déchets après l'arrêt de fonctionnement dudit brûleur (40).
  6. Dispositif de commande de fonctionnement du four de gazéification et fusion (3, 4) selon la revendication 4 ou 5, dans lequel la condition d'arrêt de brûleur comporte le fait que la température détectée par ledit thermomètre (46) ou une valeur moyenne glissante de celle-ci s'est maintenue à une valeur supérieure ou égale à une température d'arrêt de brûleur prédéfinie pendant une durée spécifique.
