Definitions

  • the present invention relates to the technical field of smoke treatment.
  • flue gas treatment is intended to mean the operation of cooling the fumes, reacting them with reactive products, and filtering them. The fumes are then decontaminated and able to be released into the atmosphere, in the sense of the regulations in force.
  • the present invention more particularly relates to a compact module for treating flue gases. It also relates to an advantageous use, but not limited to, of said module for the treatment of fumes from cremation furnaces for the incineration of human or animal bodies. More specifically, the invention also relates to a cremation installation of human or animal bodies implementing the module.
  • the law in particular French, requires the treatment of smoke from cremation furnaces.
  • the plants are equipped upstream of the oven, with different independent elements that are in particular: a flue gas cooler, a reagent dosing hopper, a filtration zone, in addition to the fans necessary for the ejection and the aspiration of the fumes.
  • a cremation system comprising an installation for treating fumes from said cremation system.
  • This installation includes a cooling boiler, a reagent storage and dosing device, and a filter.
  • these elements are integrated in two parts of modules, the resulting installation nevertheless occupies a large volume and is constraining to install. Indeed, in the same manner as above, these elements are independent of each other and are connected by gas pipes to convey a stream of fumes, successively through each element taken independently. The elements are simply close together, the clutter is only minimally reduced. Each element plays its role independently of the others, there is no synergy between said elements.
  • the problem to be solved by the present invention is that of limiting the size of the elements used for the treatment of fumes, in particular the fumes from an incineration furnace.
  • the Applicant has developed a compact fume treatment module.
  • the smoke treatment module is in the form of a single enclosure comprising a single inlet, and a single outlet, respectively a fume inlet to be treated, and treated fumes outlet.
  • the single enclosure comprises at least three elements among which a cooling boiler communicating with the flue gas inlet, a reagent storage and metering device, and a filter communicating with the flue gas outlet, said boiler and said filter being separated by a volume of the enclosure defined by the walls of the enclosure, the outlet of the boiler and the inlet of the filter, and said reagent storage and dosing device being arranged to introduce the reagents into said volume.
  • the module is connected to a flue gas chimney equipped with an exhaust fan.
  • the module can be pre-equipped with a chimney or connected to an existing chimney or sold separately, with the chimney being purchased independently.
  • the object of the invention is a smoke treatment module, with a very small overall size.
  • the module is easy to install and implement. Indeed, it suffices simply to connect it to the flue gas outlet, for example, from an oven, to connect the water circuit for the boiler, and to connect the module to the electrical network for the elements operating with electrical energy. .
  • the filter must be connected to an extraction fan independent of the module.
  • the module also has the advantage of being interchangeable easily and quickly in the event of a failure on one of the devices. It can be arranged in the building housing the cremation oven or outside the building.
  • the module is indeed in a single compact enclosure whose specific internal arrangement of the three elements is such that the fumes passing through the module are, after being cooled firstly by the boiler, directed to the free volume of the enclosure separating the boiler and the filter for the treatment by the reagents as such.
  • the treatment is done directly in the volume of the enclosure as such, the fumes do not have to go through an additional element such as a reactor as is generally the case in the state of the art.
  • an additional element such as a reactor as is generally the case in the state of the art.
  • it is thus not necessary to use gas pipes to circulate the fumes.
  • a simple suction through the outlet of the enclosure allows the fumes to circulate through each of the elements for their treatment.
  • Such a module is very compact and easy to install.
  • the first compartment comprises the flue gas cooling boiler to be treated and the reagent storage and dosing device.
  • the boiler is in the form of a cylinder comprising an air / water heat exchanger connected to a water circuit external to the module, the lower end of the boiler having an opening opening directly into the second compartment.
  • the module further comprises means adapted to impart to the cooled fumes a turbulent movement.
  • said means are in the form of a baffle plate arranged vertically in the second compartment, opposite the opening of the cooling boiler through which the cooled fumes open.
  • the plate has a height greater than that of the opening of the cooling boiler through which open the cooled fumes.
  • the reagent storage and dosing device is in the form of a closed vessel comprising, in the upper part, a receptacle for receiving the reagent products accessible directly from the outside via a trapdoor.
  • the tray is rotatably mounted about a horizontal axis so as to pivot to dump its contents at the bottom of the tank.
  • the tank comprises, at its base, a metering device connected to injection means able to inject the reagents under the filter into the second compartment.
  • the reagent injection means are in the form of a venturi effect duct.
  • the filter is arranged, according to the invention, away from the base of the module so as to provide a free space in which circulates the mixture of reagent and cooled fumes.
  • the fumes to be treated are sucked by an exhaust fan connected to the filter. They penetrate through the inlet, through the cooling boiler in which they are cooled, through the means to make turbulent the flow of fumes to optimize the subsequent phase of mixing with the reagents. The fumes then arrive under the filter where they are mixed with the reagents. The fumes are then filtered through the dust collector filter and are extracted by the exhaust fan through the exhaust stack.
  • the reagents used are powdery, so they tend to redeposit on the base of the module after having been suspended by the venturi effect.
  • the module includes an air compressor connected to air guns to blow air under the filter. The reagents are thus recycled for reuse several times until their effectiveness becomes insufficient. Efficiency is measured in practice by smoke analysis at the chimney outlet. Such a process allows a saving of reagents and an optimization of the quantities used.
  • the air compressor is also connected to the dedusting filter to unclog the filter.
  • the module comprises a hopper for storing dust from the dedusting filter, and an access hatch to said hopper.
  • the invention also relates to a cremation plant of human or animal bodies comprising a cremation furnace, the previously described module and a treated flue gas exhaust duct provided with an exhaust fan, the cooling boiler smoke from the module is connected to the flue outlet of the cremation furnace, and the module filter is connected to the exhaust stack.
  • the installation may be in its entirety contained in a common building.
  • the module is arranged outside the building. It is in these conditions tight.
  • the module (1) for treating flue gases according to the invention is in the form of a single enclosure (1) comprising a single inlet (2) and a single outlet (3), respectively a fumes inlet to be treated, and an outlet of treated fumes.
  • the inlet (2) is particularly intended to be connected to a pipe in which the fumes are rejected, for example a cremation oven.
  • the outlet (3) is connected to an exhaust fan (4) for sucking fumes and driving from the inlet (2) to the outlet (3).
  • the fan (4) is itself connected to an exhaust stack (5).
  • the chimney (5) further includes orifices (5a) for taking smoke to verify that the current regulations on the discharge of fumes is respected.
  • the chimney and exhaust fan can pre-equip the module or be adapted to the module from an existing chimney on site.
  • the module comprises two contiguous compartments, separated by a partition (8) respectively a first compartment comprising the boiler (6) for cooling the fumes to be treated, and the storage and dosing device of reagents (20), and a second compartment comprising the filter (9).
  • the boiler is in the form of a cylinder comprising a tube air / water heat exchanger (6a).
  • the water circulates in the tubes via an inlet (6b) and an outlet (6c) of water connected to a water circuit external to the module.
  • the boiler (6) thus allows the flue gases to be cooled by heat exchange with the water circuit of the boiler (6).
  • the inlet (2) fumes to be treated opens directly into the boiler (6) above the exchanger itself.
  • the volume (10) surmounting the exchanger is also accessible through an access hatch (11) for cleaning.
  • the cooled air passes through the volume (12) separating the base of the boiler (6) from the base of the exchanger. This volume is also accessible from the outside by an access door (13).
  • the lower compartment (12) of the boiler has an opening (14) opening directly into the second compartment, through which are evacuated the cooled fumes.
  • the passage of the cooled smoke to the compartment enclosing the filter (9) is therefore through the bottom of the module.
  • the second compartment Facing the opening of the lower compartment (12) of the boiler (6), the second compartment has a vertical plate (15) projecting from the bottom of the module (1), a height greater than the height of the opening (14) above. This plate is positioned in slight withdrawal so as to form a baffle and improve the subsequent contact between the reactants and the fumes.
  • the reagent storage and dosing device is in the form of a tank (20) positioned near the boiler. It is separated from the second compartment by the wall (8).
  • the tray (16) serves to discharge the reagent products. It is free to rotate about a horizontal axis (7). In this way, the tray (16) is adapted to adopt a first position in which it is intended for receiving said reactive products, and a second position in which it pivots to pour the reactive products at the bottom of the tank.
  • the bottom of the tank is connected to a metering device (18) comprising a metering screw itself connected to injection means in the form of a venturi effect duct (19) into which the metering screw is discharged. .
  • the conduit (19) further comprises two ends. The first end is connected to a supply fan (23) to promote the venturi effect.
  • the second compartment receives the dust collector filter (9) which occupies substantially the entire volume thereof. It is thus arranged over a length substantially equal to that corresponding to the addition of the reagent storage device and the boiler.
  • the filter (9) is fixed at a distance from the base of the module so as to have a free volume (21) between the filter and the base of the module.
  • the volume (21) is defined by the walls of the enclosure (1), the outlet of the boiler (6) and the inlet of the filter (9).
  • the filter is in the form of a succession of "socks", through which the fumes are sucked upwardly by the fan (4).
  • the cooled fumes after passing the baffle, are in a turbulent state which favors their mixing with the reactive products.
  • the fumes then enter the dust collector filter (9) in which they are filtered and then discharged by an exhaust fan (4) connected to the outlet (3) of the module (1).
  • the fumes thus treated are then sent to an exhaust stack (5) to be discharged into the atmosphere.
  • the module (1) further comprises an air compressor (22) positioned in the first compartment alongside the reagent storage and metering device.
  • This air compressor (22) is connected to air guns for blowing air (24) into the volume (21) under the filter.
  • the fact of blowing air into the volume (21) makes it possible to resuspend the pulverulent reagents and to mix them with the fumes to be treated.
  • the reagents are thus recycled for reuse several times until their effectiveness becomes insufficient. Efficiency is measured in practice by smoke analyzes at the outlet of the chimney (5a).
  • the air compressor (22) is also connected to the dedusting filter (9) for injecting air therein for unclogging operations of the filter (9).
  • the bottom of the second compartment comprises a dust storage hopper from the dust collector filter (9), and an access door (25) to said hopper from the outside.
  • the drain dust can be achieved by suction of the storage hopper. The operation is easy because the access door is accessible emptying is done outside the building housing the oven.
  • the illustrated module further comprises an electrical box (26) for connecting to the electrical network elements operating with electrical energy, such as the air compressor (22) for example.
  • the invention provides a compact module (1) for the treatment of a flue gas stream which is very compact compared to the installations of the state of the art.
  • the advantage of such a module is that it is possible to circulate the flue gas stream without gas pipes, the treatment of fumes by the reagent is done directly in the volume of the single enclosure.
