Definitions

  • the invention relates to a method for grinding regrind in a vertical mill according to the preamble of claim 8 and a vertical mill according to the preamble of claim 1.
  • a vertical mill according to the preamble of claim 1 is for example from EP 1 675 683 B1 known and in a schematic way with the essential components in Fig. 3 shown.
  • Such a vertical mill has a rotating grinding table 3, are provided on the grinding rollers 4 or grinding rollers for crushing and grinding of the, for example, as cement clinker or raw coal in the central region of the grinding bowl 3 abandoned ground material.
  • the vertical mill 30 is traversed from bottom to top, depending on the nature of the ground material fed to the grinding bowl 3, from a main gas flow 14, which is usually a hot gas flow in a grinding-drying process.
  • a main gas flow 14 which is usually a hot gas flow in a grinding-drying process.
  • the hot gas blown in from below which serves as transport and drying gas, is largely guided upwards by the boundary of the mill housing 11 into a vertical transport flow for ground particles.
  • the particles guided upwards are classified by means of a classifier 9, which is expediently designed as a dynamic, rotating classifier. Larger particles of the ground material rejected by the sifter are returned to the grinding plate 3 for further grinding by the grit cone 6 arranged underneath.
  • the invention is therefore based on the object to design a generic vertical mill so that an improvement in the operating efficiency, in particular by avoiding the recirculation of fine particles is achieved, and this can also be implemented in a corresponding method.
  • a central idea of the invention can be seen to provide a supply for a sealing gas flow in the lower region of the spit cone, the flow direction leads from the inside to the outside and finely particulate from the annular gap distance between the outlet of the spout cone and the upper portion of the grinding rollers and thus a recirculation of these fine particles avoids.
  • a complementary core idea is to divert a portion of the total required for a Mahltrockmuddy in the vertical mill transport and drying gas stream before entering the annular channel with blade ring, below the grinding bowl and this partial gas flow instead above the grinding rollers at the level of the exit from the Griessekonus to introduce this partial gas or sealing gas flow from the inside to the outside in the vertical mill.
  • this sealing gas flow is distributed over 360 ° evenly distributed in the region of the annular gap distance. Constructively, this can be done by means of a ring channel or a ring line on the outside of the lower portion of the spit cone.
  • the sealing gas flow can expediently be viewed in terms of volume as well as distributed in a sectoral manner over 360 ° in such a way that a stronger blocking gas flow is provided in areas of an increased fine material attack.
  • the feed device for the sealing gas flow is aerodynamically designed at the lower region of the spit cone as this surrounding gas channel, so that the sealing gas flow with the flow direction outwardly produces a derivative of the annular gap distance guided fines and this deflects in the ascending transport and drying gas flow. It is therefore realized a pneumatic barrier at the annular gap distance between Griessekonus and grinding rollers. As a result, the operating efficiency of the vertical mill is improved as a relation between discharged, intended fines and required total energy of the vertical mill.
  • the gas channel is implemented circumferentially in the lower region of the spout cone with a plurality of annular channel segments. This allows an inflow of the sealing gas seen with approximately the same pressure over the circumference of the spit cone. On the other hand, a better rising of the transport and drying gas is made possible on the outer conical surface of the Griessekonus in the remaining free distances between the individual annular channel segments.
  • a further improvement is also achieved by diverting a bypass line for the sealing gas flow from the main supply line of the vertical mill for the transport and drying gas.
  • the barrier gas flow can also be introduced as a separate gas flow, in particular as ambient air or fresh air, in the corresponding feeder. This also makes it possible to reduce the transport gas volume ascending through the annular channel around the grinding plate.
  • the flow direction of the cooling gas is in this case directed from the outside inwards and is used solely for cooling and reducing the temperature of ground particles, for example of rising fines during the grinding of cement clinker.
  • the internally outwardly directed sealing gas flow is provided with a vertical flow component, so that a favorable flow transition is generated together with the vertically rising transport gas flow.
  • the spit cone can also be cylindrical, in particular in the lower region Have shape that extends into the space of opposing, largely vertically oriented grinding rollers.
  • the invention solves the underlying object with the features of claim 8.
  • a sealing gas flow is generated with the flow direction from the inside to the outside in and / or over the annular gap distance, so that an influx and recirculation of fines in the gap distance can be prevented.
  • the sealing gas flow is expediently branched off via a bypass line as part of the main gas flow generated for the vertical mill for transport and drying gas, this being realized in particular below the grinding plate.
  • the ascending transport and / or drying gas flow is thereby increased in volume, whereby the pneumatic delivery of the ground particles is improved.
  • Another advantage is achieved when the volume and / or the temperature of the barrier gas flow is adjustable and this is done in particular as a function of the desired fine material.
  • the invention achieves several improved effects. Fines particles are no longer recycled as part of a recirculation on the grinding table and thus on the grinding bed, but reach the sifter. As a result, the condition of the grinding bed is positively influenced and reduces the tendency to vibrate. The proportions of the finished or fine material in the material circulation within the vertical mill are reduced, which leads to an overall relief of the pneumatic transport in the vertical mill and thus increases the throughput and reduces the pressure loss.
  • the gas velocity in the annular channel with blade ring decreases by the proportion of bypass gas branched off in the bypass, whereby the pressure loss is lowered significantly.
  • the reduced gas velocity in the blade ring allows the operation of the vertical mill with a controlled Reject, which in turn lowers the pressure loss in the vertical mill, because oversized grinding particles are then no longer recycled pneumatically, but can be recycled in an external mechanical circulation, for example by bucket elevator. Overall, therefore, an improvement in the operating performance and operating efficiency is achieved.
  • the invention can therefore be used in all types of vertical mills, in which there is a cross-sectional widening above the rollers for the transport and drying gas flow, since in this area in particular the problem of recirculating fine particles.
  • FIGS. 1 . 2 and 3 shown vertical mills have in view of the essential components such as grinding table 3, grinding rollers 4, Griesseus 6 and arranged above sifter 9 with enclosing mill housing 11 same structure.
  • a partial flow via the bypass line 17 In the example of the vertical mill 1 after Fig. 1 is diverted from the main gas flow 14, a partial flow via the bypass line 17.
  • hot gas is produced in a hot gas generator and fed as main gas flow 14 to the vertical mill 1 below the grinding plate 3.
  • the diversion of the partial gas flow via the bypass line 17 takes place here below the grinding plate 3 or outside of the mill housing 11.
  • This is shown schematically by the arrows 15 as a flow through the annular channel 5 with blade ring.
  • This flow 15 transports the milling particles ground between grinding rolls 4 and grinding plates 3 and guided outwards into the area of the annular channel 5 largely vertically upward.
  • This pneumatic transport function is particularly dependent on the flow rate and the flow volume of the transport and drying gas.
  • annular gap 21 can fall back through the already ground millbase on the grinding table 3 or is returned. With regard to rising fine particles in the flow 15, however, this is prevented in that a sealing gas flow 22 is generated from the inside to the outside to shield the annular gap 21 against entry of fines in this area in the lower region of the seminal cone 6.
  • This blocking gas flow 22 was branched off from the main gas flow 14 as a bypass flow 16 and introduced via the bypass line 17 and the feeder 18 in an annular channel 19 surrounding the Griesseus 6 and there over the entire circumference of the annular channel 19 as a sealing gas flow 22 with flow direction from inside to outside in the Free space for the transport flow 24 blown.
  • the bypass line 17 is guided here above the grinding rollers 4 approximately horizontally through the mill housing 11 on a short path to the outer surface of the Griessekonus 6 and passed in the example shown a short distance on Griessekonus 6 down to the annular channel 19.
  • the annular channel 19 can be traversed circumferentially in one direction through the bypass flow 16. In order to create approximately the same pressure conditions for the outflowing sealing gas flow 22, the annular channel 19 can also have, for example, two 180 ° segments which are flowed through in the opposite direction.
  • bypass lines 17 each offset by 120 ° with one of three annular channel segments 19 may be fluidly connected.
  • the sealing gas flow 22 in Fig. 1 blocked in the upper, inner region of the annular gap 21 against ingress of fines. Farther out, the barrier gas flow is diverted upward into the vertical transport flow 24 so that there is a larger volume upward flow for milled particles.
  • the sealing gas flow 22 can be controlled depending on the outlet volume, exit velocity and exit angle from the annular channel 19 so that a recirculation of fine particles above a certain fineness is prevented and is supplied to the sifter 9 with the vertical transport flow 24 upwards.
  • the blocking gas flow 22 should therefore be adjusted so that over-ground, but coarser Mahlgutp
  • the diversion of the bypass flow as a barrier gas flow to prevent a recirculation of certain particle sizes through the annular gap 21 ultimately leads to an improvement in the energy balance of the vertical mill compared to the discharged, desired fines.
  • Fig. 2 corresponds, apart from the sealing gas flow 25, the embodiment according to Fig. 1 , In Fig. 2
  • the fluid flow 26 exiting the sifter is a fines-gas mixture from which the fines are deposited in downstream cyclones and / or filters.
  • the device according to the invention and the method therefore provide a relatively simple possibility of being able to realize a more efficient operation of such a vertical mill by blocking the recirculation of certain particle sizes.
