Definitions
- the present invention relates to a method for cleaning a rotor of a centrifugal separator in a gas separation plant having at least two centrifugal separators, coupled in parallel and functioning by counter-current separation, in which each centrifugal separator has a housing with a rotatably supported rotor with sedimentation surface elements, a gas inlet coupled to a common gas feed for contaminated gas, and a gas outlet coupled to a gas outlet line for scrubbed gas, and having a fan in the outlet line in order to draw contaminated gas into both of the centrifugal separators together during gas scrubbing operation, and to extract scrubbed gas from these via the outlet line.
- the invention further relates to a method for cleaning a rotor of a centrifugal separator in a gas separation plant having at least two centrifugal separators, coupled in parallel and functioning by co-current separation, in which each centrifugal separator has a housing with a rotatably supported rotor with sedimentation surface elements, a gas inlet coupled to a gas feed for contaminated gas, and a gas outlet coupled to a gas outlet line for scrubbed gas.
- the invention further relates to a gas separation plant for separating liquid particles and/or solid particles from a contaminated gas, comprising at least two centrifugal separators, coupled in parallel and functioning by counter- current separation, in which each centrifugal separator has a housing with a rotatably supported rotor with sedimentation surface elements, a gas inlet coupled to a common gas feed for contaminated gas, a gas outlet coupled to a gas outlet line for scrubbed gas, and a fan in the outlet line in order to draw contaminated gas into the centrifugal separators during normal gas scrubbing operation, and to extract scrubbed gas from these via the outlet line.
- the invention likewise relates to a gas separation plant for separating liquid particles and/or solid particles from a contaminated gas, comprising at least two centrifugal separators, coupled in parallel and functioning by co-current separation, in which each centrifugal separator has a housing with a rotatably supported rotor with sedimentation surface elements, a gas inlet for contaminated gas, and a gas outlet coupled to a gas outlet line for scrubbed gas.
- centrifugal separators In plants for scrubbing flue gas from thermal power stations, for example, multiple centrifugal separators, known in the art and coupled in parallel, may be used, which separate liquid particles (normally water) and solid particles (normally soot) from the contaminated gas before scrubbed gas is released into the surrounding atmosphere.
- centrifugal separators In operation of the centrifugal separators their sedimentation surface elements, normally in the form of conical rotor disk elements, become fouled with adhering particles, which clog the narrow gaps between the disks, so that the disks need to be cleaned at intervals. To do this, it has hitherto been necessary to shut down all or parts of the plant and to clean the separators separately, entailing an additional time-consuming operation.
- An object of the present invention is to propose a method for cleaning a rotor of a centrifugal separator in a gas separation plant having at least two centrifugal separators, coupled in parallel and functioning by counter-current separation, in which cleaning of the separators can be performed more rapidly and efficiently than hitherto.
- the method according to the invention is characterized by the features specified in Claim 1, the outlet line from one of the separators to be cleaned therefore being shut off, whilst an air inlet into the gas outlet of the separator upstream of the shut-off in the outlet line is simultaneously opened, the air from the air inlet being made to flow through the rotor of this separator in a direction of flow opposed to the normal gas flow direction through the separator, and thereafter into the gas inlet of the other, active centrifugal separator.
- the temporarily counter-current air flow causes the contaminants adhering to the rotating rotor disk elements to be dried and thereby released more easily from these elements.
- the cleaning process can be further facilitated and rendered more efficient by reducing the rotational speed of the rotor during the cleaning phase, to such a degree that vibrations naturally occurring in the rotor are used to shake loose the contaminants deposited on the sedimentation surface elements of the rotor.
- Yet another object of the present invention is to propose a gas separation plant which comprises such cleanable centrifugal separators and functioning by counter-current separation for separating liquid particles and solid particles from a contaminated gas.
- the gas separation plant according to one embodiment of the invention is more specifically characterized by the features of the independent Claim 6. An embodiment designed in this way allows the constituent separators of the gas separation plant to be alternately cleaned efficiently and rapidly during a continuous gas scrubbing process.
- Fig. 1 is a schematic side view of a gas separation plant according to the invention having two centrifugal separators, coupled in parallel and functioning by counter-current separation, in a gas-scrubbing operating state;
- Fig. 2 is a schematic side view of the gas separation plant in Fig. 1 during cleaning of the rotor of the one centrifugal separator on the left of the drawing;
- Fig. 3 is a schematic side view of a gas separation plant according to the invention having two centrifugal separators, coupled in parallel and functioning by co-current separation, in a gas-scrubbing operating state; and
- Fig. 4 is a schematic side view of the gas separation plant in Fig. 3 during cleaning of the rotor of the one centrifugal separator on the left of the drawing.
- a gas separation plant for separating liquid particles and solid particles from a contaminated gas such as a water-cooled flue gas from a thermal power station, for example, is generally denoted by 10.
- the gas separation plant 10 comprises two (or more) centrifugal separators 12, coupled in parallel and of a type known in the art, each of which has a fixed housing 14 and a schematically indicated rotor 16 rotatably supported therein, each having a large number of preferably conical disk elements stacked with intervening spaces between them.
- the separators 12 have a common feed 18 for the contaminated gas that is to be scrubbed, and each has a gas inlet 20 in a side wall of the housing 14.
- An outlet 22 for the gas scrubbed in the separator 12 is arranged on top of each housing 14, and a gas outlet line 24 extends from the outlet 22 towards a common gas outlet 26, in which a fan 28 is fitted, which in normal operation draws the contaminated gas through both (all) of the centrifugal separators 12 from the common feed 18.
- the separator housings 14 have bottom outlets (not shown) for solid and liquid phases, which have been separated out by the rotor disk elements.
- a rotatable damper 30 Situated in each of the respective gas outlet lines 24 is a rotatable damper 30, which in normal gas scrubbing operation can be kept open in order to allow a common intake of contaminated gas into the separators 12 and a common extraction of scrubbed gas therefrom. Also situated upstream of the dampers 30 in each of the outlet lines 24 is a fresh air inlet 34 that can be either opened or closed by a valve 32, said valve 32 being kept closed during normal gas scrubbing operation.
- the disk elements of the rotors 16 can easily and rapidly be cleaned of these contaminants in that the damper 30 in the one gas outlet line 24, in Fig. 2 the left-hand line, is closed and the associated air inlet valve 32 is simultaneously opened, fresh air being made to flow through the rotor 16 in a direction counter to the normal direction of flow of the gas, first drying, then "tearing off the contaminants with the aid of the gas inlet 20 of the other, in Fig. 2 the right-hand, still active separator 12, which is connected to the inlet 20 of the left-hand separator 12, which is being cleaned and which is under the continuous suction effect of the fan 28.
- the process can be switched over and the outlet line 24 of the right-hand separator 12 can then be closed and the fresh air inlet 34 opened in order to clean the right-hand separator 12 in a corresponding manner.
- the contaminated gas is led via the feed 18 into the centre of the rotor 16 via a respective inlet 20a of each separator 12, following which it flows radially out through the rotor 16, where the contaminants are separated out, and then out through the gas outlet line 24 and a common gas outlet 26.
- the disk elements of the rotor 16 When after a period of use the disk elements of the rotor 16 have become fouled by adhering solid and/or liquid particles from the contaminated gas, the disk elements of the rotors 16 can easily and rapidly be alternately cleaned of these contaminants in that the damper 30 in the one gas outlet line 24, in Fig.
- a valve 35 closes the inlet 20a, fresh air from the air inlet 34 being made to flow through the rotor 16 in the same direction as the normal direction of flow of the gas, first drying, then "tearing off the contaminants with the aid of the other, in Fig. 4 the right- hand, still active separator 12, which is connected via its inlet 20a to the outlet 22 of the left-hand separator 12 via an open return line 36.
- a valve 38 keeps the return line 36 closed, as shown in Fig. 3.
- the process can be switched over in order to activate the left-hand separator 12, and the outlet line 24 of the right-hand separator 12 can then be closed by the damper 30 and the fresh air inlet 34 opened, whilst the associated gas inlet valve 35 is simultaneously closed and the valve 38 of the return line 36 is opened in order to clean the right-hand separator 12 in a corresponding manner.
- the rotational speed of the rotor 16 may be reduced during the cleaning phase to such a degree that vibrations naturally occurring in the rotor are used in order to shake loose the contaminants deposited on the disk elements of the rotor.
- a cleaning liquid may be added, in a manner known in the art, to the air flow from the fresh air inlet 34 during the cleaning phase of the rotor
- centrifugal separators are used having a rotor with radial, conical separating disks. It is naturally also feasible to use centrifugal separators, the rotors of which have axial disk elements which are involute in plan view.
- the flushing air always flows co-currently through the rotor, so as not to counteract the separation of the contaminants attached to and then released from the disk elements of the rotor. This applies to all embodiments according to the invention.
