Definitions
- the invention relates to a bio oil burner which is suitable for burning bio-based pyrolysis oil in heat only boilers.
- the invention also relates to an oil nozzle for an oil burner.
- a typical oil burner comprises an oil lance surrounded by a primary air feeding channel, a secondary air feeding channel and a tertiary air feeding channel.
- the oil can be atomized into droplets by steam or compressed air.
- the fuel is sprayed by means of an oil nozzle situated at the end of the oil lance to the hot furnace where it immediately ignites so as to form a flame at the mouth of the burner. Burning is enhanced by air flows which are fed around the flame and which are arrangeable under a rotating motion by air guiding devices provided to the air feeding channels.
- Bio oil produced by pyrolysing bio mass may contain 20 - 40 weight-% of water. While the heating value of heavy fuel oil is approximately 40 MJ/kg, the heating value of bio oil is only approximately 10 - 15 MJ/kg. To reach the same heat power, bio oil must be fed to the boiler in a greater amount than heavy fuel oil. While the mass flow of the fuel to a heavy fuel burner of the order of 40 - 60 MW is approximately 4 - 6 t/h, in a bio oil burner of the corresponding order the mass flow of the fuel must be approximately 10 - 12 t/h. Such a feed flow cannot be produced with the currently used heavy oil burners.
- Bio oil may have a high nitrogen content, for example 0.5 weight-%, which increases the NO x emissions.
- acids are normally produced when pyrolysing biomass, and so bio oil is most often acidic.
- bio oil produced from wood has a pH of approximately 2-3.
- the objective of the invention is to provide an oil burner and an oil nozzle suitable for burning bio oil.
- the objective is a burner by which liquid fuel having a low heating value and low pH can be atomized and burnt.
- the objective is a bio oil burner by which it is possible, at the same time, to achieve the following objects or at least approach the following values: [1] the carbon monoxide (CO) content of the flue gas is below 100 ppm; [2] the proportion of incombustible carbon in the fly ash contained by the flue gas is below 5 weight-%; [3] the NO x content of the flue gas is below 400 mg/Nm 3 ; and [4] the flame does not extend to the walls of the furnace where it could cause high-temperature corrosion.
- CO carbon monoxide
- a bio oil burner has now been proposed, comprising:
- an oil nozzle for an oil burner which oil nozzle has a slanting circumferential surface with spray holes, and which oil nozzle has 6 - 50 spray holes which are distributed on the slanting circumferential surface of the oil nozzle in such a way that said spray holes form at least two groups of spray holes in which the spray holes are located at a regular spacing S1 from each other, and that between said groups of spray holes there are intermediate spaces in which no spray holes are present, and the circumferential length S2 of the intermediate spaces is greater than the circumferential spacing S1 between the spray holes within the group.
- an oil nozzle for an oil burner which oil nozzle has a slanting circumferential surface with spray holes, and which oil nozzle has 10 - 50 spray holes which are distributed on the slanting circumferential surface of the oil nozzle in such a way that said spray holes form at least two groups of spray holes in which the spray holes are located at a regular spacing S1 from each other, and that between said groups of spray holes there are intermediate spaces in which no spray holes are present, and the circumferential length S2 of the intermediate spaces is greater than the circumferential spacing S1 between the spray holes within the group.
- the spray holes are furthermore provided to the oil nozzle in two or more groups in such a way that between the groups of spray holes there are intermediate spaces. In one embodiment said spray holes form two, three or four groups of spray holes.
- the air flowing to the area of the center enhances the ignition of the flame in two ways.
- the air flowing to the area of the center enhances the mixing of air and oil droplets with each other, due to which the ignition of the fuel is more stable.
- the air flowing to the area of the center also pushes the oil particles formed in an outward direction, which furthers the ignition of the flame.
- the spacing S1 is the circumferential spacing between the centers of two successive spray holes within the group B1,B2.
- the circumferential length S2 of the intermediate space is the circumferential distance between the centers of the outermost spray holes of adjacent groups B1,B2 of spray holes.
- the diameter of the spray holes is 6 - 10 mm. In one embodiment the diameter of the spray holes is 7.5 mm. When the diameter of the spray holes is 7.5 mm, according to computer calculations a sufficient oil feed in obtained.
- the flame stabilizing ring attached to the free end of the first cylinder is so located that primary air flows on one side of it and secondary air flows on the other side of it.
- the stabilizing ring blocks part of the outlet of the secondary air flow channel in such a way that part of the secondary air flow collides with the stabilizing ring, whereby the flow field of the air is changed.
- Behind the stabilizing ring in the secondary air flow channel a reduced pressure field is provided, which causes stabilization of the flame, or at least enhances the stability of the flame.
- the flame ignites better by means of the stabilizing ring than without the stabilizing ring.
- the flame stabilizing ring changes the flow field of the flame so as to keep the flame narrow, whereby the flame does not extend to the walls of the boiler and so does not cause high-temperature corrosion of the walls, or at least reduces high-temperature corrosion.
- the primary air swirler blocks at least part of the outlet of the primary air flow channel so that at least part of the primary air flow collides with the swirler, whereby the flow field of the air is changed. Due to the primary air swirler according to the invention, the air flow discharged from the primary air flow channel moves more linearly toward the center of the boiler than in a burner wherein the outer diameter of the swirler is larger. The flame thus stays narrow and mainly does not extend to the walls of the boiler.
- the flow field of the entire boiler and thereby of the area adjacent to the burner can be adjusted.
- the flow field of the area adjacent to the burner it governs the local oxygen content and thus the formation of nitrogen oxide emissions.
- bio oil liquid fuel produced by pyrolysing biomass.
- the bio oil is produced by pyrolysing wood mass.
- the bio oil is pyrolysis oil.
- the oil is broken up into small droplets.
- the oil is broken up by means of a pressure medium.

- the length of the spacing S1 is 15 - 40 mm or 20 - 35 mm or 25 - 30 mm. Between two successive spray holes, air is able to flow to the area of the center of the oil nozzle. When the spacing S1 is sufficiently long, a sufficient amount of air is able to flow between the successive spray holes to the area of the center of the oil nozzle and around each individual spray hole, which enhances the ignition of the flame.
- the circumferential length S2 of the intermediate spaces is 2 - 4 times greater than the circumferential spacing S1 between the spray holes within the group.

Abstract
Description
- The invention relates to a bio oil burner which is suitable for burning bio-based pyrolysis oil in heat only boilers. The invention also relates to an oil nozzle for an oil burner.
- The burning of heavy fuel oil and natural gas is currently well known and commercial arrangements are numerous. However, as the emission standards for nitrogen oxides (NOx) are becoming ever more stringent, there are pressures to make modifications, and technical improvements in devices are continuously required. In addition to NOx emissions, also the emission standards for carbon dioxide (CO2) will become more stringent. One way to reduce CO2 emissions is to replace the heavy fuel oil with bio oil produced from bio-based material.
- For burning gaseous, liquid and solid fuels, there are specific separate burners optimized for that specific type of fuel. In addition, there are hybrid burners suitable for burning two or more different types of fuel.
- Typically, the heat power of the largest currently manufactured heavy oil burners is 40 - 60 MW, the oil flow fed to the burner then being 4 - 6 t/h (thousand kilograms per hour). A typical oil burner comprises an oil lance surrounded by a primary air feeding channel, a secondary air feeding channel and a tertiary air feeding channel. The oil can be atomized into droplets by steam or compressed air. The fuel is sprayed by means of an oil nozzle situated at the end of the oil lance to the hot furnace where it immediately ignites so as to form a flame at the mouth of the burner. Burning is enhanced by air flows which are fed around the flame and which are arrangeable under a rotating motion by air guiding devices provided to the air feeding channels.
- The oil burner's requirements become different as the properties of the fuel change. Bio oil produced by pyrolysing bio mass may contain 20 - 40 weight-% of water. While the heating value of heavy fuel oil is approximately 40 MJ/kg, the heating value of bio oil is only approximately 10 - 15 MJ/kg. To reach the same heat power, bio oil must be fed to the boiler in a greater amount than heavy fuel oil. While the mass flow of the fuel to a heavy fuel burner of the order of 40 - 60 MW is approximately 4 - 6 t/h, in a bio oil burner of the corresponding order the mass flow of the fuel must be approximately 10 - 12 t/h. Such a feed flow cannot be produced with the currently used heavy oil burners. The high water content of bio oil lowers the temperature of the flame and reduces its stability. Bio oil may have a high nitrogen content, for example 0.5 weight-%, which increases the NOx emissions. In addition, acids are normally produced when pyrolysing biomass, and so bio oil is most often acidic. For example, bio oil produced from wood has a pH of approximately 2-3. To prevent high-temperature corrosion of the boiler, it is important that the flame of the oil burner situated at the ceiling or on the wall of the furnace under no conditions contacts the surfaces of the boiling pipes of the boiler.
- The objective of the invention is to provide an oil burner and an oil nozzle suitable for burning bio oil. In other words, the objective is a burner by which liquid fuel having a low heating value and low pH can be atomized and burnt.
- Specifically, the objective is a bio oil burner by which it is possible, at the same time, to achieve the following objects or at least approach the following values: [1] the carbon monoxide (CO) content of the flue gas is below 100 ppm; [2] the proportion of incombustible carbon in the fly ash contained by the flue gas is below 5 weight-%; [3] the NOx content of the flue gas is below 400 mg/Nm3; and [4] the flame does not extend to the walls of the furnace where it could cause high-temperature corrosion.
- Since the potential means for achieving the above objects are partly conflicting with each other, it requires careful optimization of the structural properties of the oil burner to achieve all of the objects at the same time.
- A bio oil burner has now been proposed, comprising:
- an oil lance, at the end of which there is an oil nozzle with spray holes for feeding atomized oil to a furnace of a boiler,
- a first cylinder coaxially surrounding the oil lance and together with the oil lance delimiting an annular primary air flow channel which ends at an outlet of the primary air flow channel,
- a second cylinder coaxially surrounding the first cylinder and together with the first cylinder delimiting an annular secondary air flow channel which ends at an outlet of the secondary air flow channel,
- a third cylinder coaxially surrounding the second cylinder and together with the second cylinder delimiting an annular tertiary air flow channel which ends at an outlet of the tertiary air flow channel, and
- a primary air swirler annularly surrounding the oil nozzle and blocking at least part of the outlet of the primary air flow channel, the bio oil burner being characterized in that
- the oil nozzle has a slanting circumferential surface and 6 - 50 spray holes which are distributed on the slanting circumferential surface of the oil nozzle in such a way that said spray holes form at least two groups of spray holes in which the spray holes are located at a regular spacing S1 from each other, and that between said groups of spray holes there are intermediate spaces in which no spray holes are present, and the circumferential length S2 of the intermediate spaces is greater than the circumferential spacing S1 between the spray holes within the group,
- the first cylinder has a free end at the outlet of the primary air flow channel, and the free end of the first cylinder is provided with a flame stabilizing ring surrounding the outlet of the primary air flow channel and blocking part of the outlet of the secondary air flow channel, and
- the outer diameter Di of the primary air swirler is calculated by the formula Di = a · D1ry, wherein a is 0.45 - 0.6 and D1ry is the inner diameter of the first cylinder.
- In addition, a bio oil burner has now been proposed, comprising:
- an oil lance, at the end of which there is an oil nozzle with spray holes for feeding atomized oil to a furnace of a boiler,
- a first cylinder coaxially surrounding the oil lance and together with the oil lance delimiting an annular primary air flow channel which ends at an outlet of the primary air flow channel,
- a second cylinder coaxially surrounding the first cylinder and together with the first cylinder delimiting an annular secondary air flow channel which ends at an outlet of the secondary air flow channel,
- a third cylinder coaxially surrounding the second cylinder and together with the second cylinder delimiting an annular tertiary air flow channel which ends at an outlet of the tertiary air flow channel, and
- a primary air swirler annularly surrounding the oil nozzle and blocking at least part of the outlet of the primary air flow channel, the bio oil burner being characterized in that
- the oil nozzle has a slanting circumferential surface and 10 - 50 spray holes which are distributed on the slanting circumferential surface of the oil nozzle in such a way that said spray holes form at least two groups of spray holes in which the spray holes are located at a regular spacing S1 from each other, and that between said groups of spray holes there are intermediate spaces in which no spray holes are present, and the circumferential length S2 of the intermediate spaces is greater than the circumferential spacing S1 between the spray holes within the group,
- the first cylinder has a free end at the outlet of the primary air flow channel, and the free end of the first cylinder is provided with a flame stabilizing ring surrounding the outlet of the primary air flow channel and blocking part of the outlet of the secondary air flow channel, and
- the outer diameter Di of the primary air swirler is calculated by the formula Di = a · D1ry, wherein a is 0.45 - 0.6 and D1ry is the inner diameter of the first cylinder.
- In addition, an oil nozzle for an oil burner has now been proposed, which oil nozzle has a slanting circumferential surface with spray holes, and which oil nozzle has 6 - 50 spray holes which are distributed on the slanting circumferential surface of the oil nozzle in such a way that said spray holes form at least two groups of spray holes in which the spray holes are located at a regular spacing S1 from each other, and that between said groups of spray holes there are intermediate spaces in which no spray holes are present, and the circumferential length S2 of the intermediate spaces is greater than the circumferential spacing S1 between the spray holes within the group.
- In addition, an oil nozzle for an oil burner has now been proposed, which oil nozzle has a slanting circumferential surface with spray holes, and which oil nozzle has 10 - 50 spray holes which are distributed on the slanting circumferential surface of the oil nozzle in such a way that said spray holes form at least two groups of spray holes in which the spray holes are located at a regular spacing S1 from each other, and that between said groups of spray holes there are intermediate spaces in which no spray holes are present, and the circumferential length S2 of the intermediate spaces is greater than the circumferential spacing S1 between the spray holes within the group.
- Due to the large number of spray holes in the oil nozzle, a greater mass flow of fuel can be conveyed through the oil nozzle than by a nozzle in which the number of spray holes is smaller. The spray holes are furthermore provided to the oil nozzle in two or more groups in such a way that between the groups of spray holes there are intermediate spaces. In one embodiment said spray holes form two, three or four groups of spray holes. Through the intermediate spaces, primary air is able to flow to the area of the center of the oil nozzle. The air flowing to the area of the center enhances the ignition of the flame in two ways. The air flowing to the area of the center enhances the mixing of air and oil droplets with each other, due to which the ignition of the fuel is more stable. The air flowing to the area of the center also pushes the oil particles formed in an outward direction, which furthers the ignition of the flame.
- The spacing S1 is the circumferential spacing between the centers of two successive spray holes within the group B1,B2. The circumferential length S2 of the intermediate space is the circumferential distance between the centers of the outermost spray holes of adjacent groups B1,B2 of spray holes.
- In one embodiment the diameter of the spray holes is 6 - 10 mm. In one embodiment the diameter of the spray holes is 7.5 mm. When the diameter of the spray holes is 7.5 mm, according to computer calculations a sufficient oil feed in obtained.
- The flame stabilizing ring attached to the free end of the first cylinder is so located that primary air flows on one side of it and secondary air flows on the other side of it. The stabilizing ring blocks part of the outlet of the secondary air flow channel in such a way that part of the secondary air flow collides with the stabilizing ring, whereby the flow field of the air is changed. Behind the stabilizing ring in the secondary air flow channel a reduced pressure field is provided, which causes stabilization of the flame, or at least enhances the stability of the flame. In addition, the flame ignites better by means of the stabilizing ring than without the stabilizing ring. Furthermore, the flame stabilizing ring changes the flow field of the flame so as to keep the flame narrow, whereby the flame does not extend to the walls of the boiler and so does not cause high-temperature corrosion of the walls, or at least reduces high-temperature corrosion.
- The primary air swirler blocks at least part of the outlet of the primary air flow channel so that at least part of the primary air flow collides with the swirler, whereby the flow field of the air is changed. Due to the primary air swirler according to the invention, the air flow discharged from the primary air flow channel moves more linearly toward the center of the boiler than in a burner wherein the outer diameter of the swirler is larger. The flame thus stays narrow and mainly does not extend to the walls of the boiler.
- By means of the structure of the oil nozzle, the outer diameter of the swirler and the stabilizing ring, the flow field of the entire boiler and thereby of the area adjacent to the burner can be adjusted. As to the flow field of the area adjacent to the burner, it governs the local oxygen content and thus the formation of nitrogen oxide emissions.

For example steam or compressed air may be used as the pressure medium. Atomization may also be provided by adjusting the oil pressure without the pressure medium. Theoil nozzle 1 shown in more detail inFig. 8 and9 comprises a number of spray holes 12 through which the fuel is fed as droplets to the furnace of the boiler. The fuel discharged from theoil nozzle 1 takes fire as it meets the air flow discharged from the primaryair flow channel 3. Thebio oil nozzle 1 has a diameter larger than the diameter of theheavy oil nozzle 1A ofFig. 1-4 . Thebio oil nozzle 1 also has a structure differing from the structure of the heavy oil nozzle ofFig. 1-4 . The structure of thebio oil nozzle 1 will be described in more detail below with reference toFig. 8 and9 . The diameter of theair feeding channels oil nozzle 1 does not necessarily have to be changed when replacing the heavy oil burner with the bio oil burner. - As illustrated in
Fig. 5 and6 , theoil nozzle 1 is annularly surrounded by aprimary air swirler 6. Theswirler 6 is located at theoutlet 21 of the primaryair flow channel 3 so that theswirler 6 blocks at least part of theoutlet 21. Theswirler 6 is secured around theoil nozzle 1. Theswirler 6 may be situated either inside or outside theflow channel 3, i.e. inside or outside thefree end 25 of thefirst cylinder 19. Theswirler 6 may comprise vanes, blades or another such structure bringing the air flow discharged from the primaryair flow channel 3 under a rotating motion before it collides with the flame or the jet of fuel discharged from theoil nozzle 1. - In the bio oil burner according to
Fig. 5 and6 , the outer diameter of theprimary air swirler 6 is smaller than in the heavy oil burner according toFig. 1 and2 . When the outer diameter of theprimary air swirler 6 is reduced, the air flow discharged from the primaryair flow channel 3 moves more linearly toward the center of the boiler than in a burner wherein the outer diameter of the swirler is larger. As a result, the flame does not spread as widely as in a burner with a larger outer diameter of the swirler. While in 50 MW heavy oil burners the outer diameter of theswirler 6A is typically approximately 300 - 310 mm, in a burner according to one embodiment the outer diameter of theswirler 6 is approximately half of that. In one embodiment the outer diameter of theswirler 6 is approximately 120 - 180 mm. In another embodiment the heat power of the bio oil burner is approximately 50 MW and the diameter of the swirler is approximately 150 mm. - Also the secondary
air flow channel 4 and the tertiaryair flow channel 9 can be provided with means (not shown) for bringing this air flow under a tangential motion before conveying the secondary air flow and the tertiary air flow, respectively, around the flame. - In the bio oil burner of
Fig. 5 and6 , thefree end 25 of thefirst cylinder 19 at theoutlet 21 of the primary air flow channel is provided with aflame stabilizing ring 7 in such a way that on its one side, primary air flows from the primaryair flow channel 3 and on its other side secondary air flows from the secondaryair flow channel 4. The stabilizingring 7 blocks part of theoutlet 22 of the secondaryair flow channel 4 in such a way that part of the secondary air flow collides with the stabilizing ring. The purpose of theflame stabilizing ring 7 is to adjust the flow field of the flame so as to keep it sufficiently narrow and prevent the flame from extending to the walls of the furnace. Another purpose of theflame stabilizing ring 7 is to effectively ignite the bio oil flame and stabilize its burning. - The stabilizing
ring 7 is directed outward and forward from thefirst cylinder 19, i.e. toward the center of the boiler and the walls of the boiler. The shape of the stabilizingring 7 may be staggered in such a way that the end of the stabilizingring 7 secured to thefirst cylinder 19 extends in parallel to the cross section of thefirst cylinder 19, and the stabilizingring 7 takes a turn at a distance from its point of attachment toward the center and the walls of the boiler. The stabilizingring 7 may be substantially truncated cone shaped, so as to open toward the center and the walls of the boiler. The stabilizingring 7 may also have another shape, as long as it diverts the flow field of the flame to the desired direction. -
Fig. 7 shows part of the structure of a bio oil burner according to one embodiment as an enlarged view. The new type ofoil nozzle 1 is provided at the end of theoil lance 13 and is surrounded by theprimary air swirler 6. Theoil lance 13 is surrounded by the primaryair flow channel 3, the secondaryair flow channel 4 and the tertiaryair flow channel 9. In this arrangement theoil nozzle 1 has a new structure, the outer diameter of theprimary air swirler 6 is smaller than in the heavy oil burner ofFig. 1-4 , and further, the oil burner is provided with theflame stabilizing ring 7. The stabilizingring 7 comprises anannular section 26 widening in a direction away from theoutlet 21 of the primary air flow channel. -
Fig. 8 and9 show the principles of the structure of abio oil nozzle 1 according to one embodiment. The operation of thebio oil nozzle 1 is similar to that of theheavy oil nozzle 1A ofFig. 3 and4 . The operation has been described above with reference toFig. 3 and4 . Also the structure of thebio oil nozzle 1 is similar to the structure of theheavy oil nozzle 1A described with reference toFig. 3 and4 , except for the outer diameter of thenozzle 1 and the number and location of the spray holes 12, thespray channels 12a and theoil channels 15a. The diameter of thebio oil nozzle 1 according toFig. 8 and9 is larger than the diameter of theheavy oil nozzle 1A because a greater mass flow must be conveyed through thebio oil nozzle 1 than with the traditional fuels. While in theheavy oil nozzle 1A it suffices to have 6-8 oil spray holes 12 to feed the fuel, the number of spray holes 12 in thebio oil nozzle 1 may be 6 - 50 in one embodiment and 10 - 50 in another embodiment. In addition, these spray holes 12 are located differently in the bio oil nozzle than in theheavy oil nozzle 1A. - The
bio oil nozzle 1 according toFig. 8 and9 comprises a total of 20 spray holes 12 located as two groups B1, B2 of spray holes on the slantingcircumferential surface 17 of theoil nozzle 1. The spray holes 12 may also be present in another number, for example eight, ten or twelve. The number of spray holes depends on the amount of the mass flow of fuel to be conveyed through the oil nozzle per unit of time. In one embodiment the number of spray holes 12 is six, and the circumferential spacing S1 between the centers of two successive spray holes 12 is 15 - 40 mm. In the embodiment according toFig. 8 and9 , each group B1, B2 of spray holes comprises tenspray holes 12 distributed at a regular spacing so that the spacing between the centers of two successive spray holes 12 is S1. The circumferential spacing S1 between the centers of two successive spray holes 12 is in one embodiment 15 - 40 mm or 20 - 35 mm or 25 - 30 mm. Between two groups B1, B2 of spray holes there is anintermediate space 16 having a length S2 greater than the spacing S1 between two successive spray holes 12 within the group B1, B2. By the length S2 of theintermediate space 16, it is meant the distance between the centers of the outermost spray holes 12 of adjacent groups B1,B2 of spray holes. The circumferential length S2 of theintermediate space 16 is in one embodiment 1.3 - 4 times or 1.5 - 3 times greater than the circumferential spacing S1 between the spray holes 12 within the group B1,B2. The diameter of the spray holes is 7.5 mm in the bio oil nozzle according toFig. 8 and9 . The spray holes may also have another diameter depending on the amount of the mass flow to be conveyed through the oil nozzle per unit of time. It is also possible to divide the spray holes in the groups B1,B2 in two circumferential rows. - Air is able to flow through the
intermediate spaces 16 to the area of thecenter 18 of theoil nozzle 1, where the air enhances the ignition of the flame in two ways. The access of air in the middle of the oil droplets discharged from the spray holes 12 enhances the mixing of air in the oil droplets, which is important for stable ignition of the fuel. In addition, the air flowing to the area of thecenter 18 of theoil nozzle 1 spreads the oil particles formed in the outward direction, at the same time spreading the flame, which is also advantageous for the ignition of the flame. In theoil nozzle 1A with a regular distribution, the flame tends to narrow down and the air is poorly mixed, so that harmful incombustible soot and carbon monoxide are likely to be formed. - The new structure of the
oil nozzle 1 allows large amounts of oil to be burnt by the bio oil burner according to the invention. The division of the spray holes 12 into two groups B1, B2 between which there areintermediate spaces 16 enhances the ignition and stabilizes burning. - The invention is not limited to the above examples but is modifiable within the scope of the accompanying claims.
