Definitions
- the present invention relates to a collapsible lance system, a reaction chamber containing the lance system and a method for reducing the concentration of pollutants in combustion gases.
- NO x The formation of NO x is subject to complex reaction mechanisms, the most important sources of NO x being the oxidation of the nitrogen in the combustion air (thermal NO x ) and the oxidation of the fuel nitrogen (fuel NO x ).
- Thermal NO x essentially arises at temperatures that are greater than about 1,200 ° C to 1,500 ° C, because only at these temperatures does the molecular oxygen in the air change noticeably into atomic oxygen (thermal oxidation) and with the nitrogen in the air connects.
- the formation rate of the thermal NO x depends exponentially on the temperature and is proportional to the oxygen concentration.
- the primary nitrogen compounds contained in the fuel initially break down into secondary nitrogen compounds (simple amines and cyanides), which are converted to either NO x or N 2 in the course of combustion. If there is a lack of oxygen, the formation of N 2 is preferred or the formation of NO x is suppressed or even reversed.
- the formation of fuel NO x is only slightly temperature-dependent and takes place even at low temperatures.
- ABL burnout air
- the addition is made using so-called ABL nozzles.
- the two basic types of ABL nozzles are wall nozzles and ABL lances.
- the invention relates to a method and devices including reaction spaces for reducing undesirable substances by injecting a reactant into an exhaust gas or flue gas, in particular into the exhaust gas of cement plants, in which the reaction medium is injected into the flue gas by means of lances. Furthermore, the invention relates to a lance or a lance system for the injection of reactants to reduce undesirable substances in the flue gas. In addition, the invention also relates to a suitable reaction space which is equipped with such a device according to the invention in order to be able to carry out the process.
- the reactants are, for example, ammonia and / or urea, which can reduce the proportion of nitrogen oxides in the flue gas.
- Appropriate processes are called selective non-catalytic reduction (SNCR; selective non-catalytic reduction).
- SNCR selective non-catalytic reduction
- reducing agents are injected into the hot flue gases of an incineration plant in aqueous solution (typically ammonia water, urea) or in gaseous form (ammonia).
- aqueous solution typically ammonia water, urea
- ammonia gaseous form
- the optimum temperature range for the reactions described is between 850 and 1,000 ° C, depending on the flue gas composition.
- SNCR technology is successfully used in small and medium-sized boilers and especially in waste incineration plants and cement plants.
- the advantage here is the small cross-sections of the reaction or combustion chambers, so that the SNCR technology can be used effectively and in an optimized manner.
- cement In cement plants, cement is produced in a continuous process using the dry process in rotary kilns.
- the raw materials such as limestone, clay, sand, but also often residues such as "fluff” or "bram”, etc. are ground and at the same time dried, then warmed up and then fired into cement clinker.
- the cement clinker is fired in rotary kilns that are slightly inclined.
- the preheated raw meal placed at the upper end runs towards a coal dust, oil or gas flame that burns at the lower end of the furnace.
- gas temperatures 1,800 to 2,000 ° C
- firing material temperatures 1,350 to 1,500 ° C are reached.
- the raw meal is preheated and calcined either in the rotary kiln itself or in a separate preheater, which is usually constructed from a device consisting of several cyclones, or in a separate calciner (Calcination reactor).
- the hot exhaust gases from the rotary kiln flow through the calciner and preheater from bottom to top, and the dry raw meal is added to the exhaust gases before the top cyclone stage, separated from the gas in the individual cyclones and suspended again in the gas stream before the next cyclone stage.
- the raw meal is usually preheated to a temperature of approx. 800 ° C in the preheater. A partial calcination of the raw meal can already take place in the cyclone preheater.
- the raw meal is then further calcined in the calciner before it reaches the rotary kiln.
- NO x e.g. ⁇ 200 or even 150 mg / Nm 3 dry, depending on the application based on different oxygen concentrations (e.g. based on 10% O 2 in cement plants and based on 6% O 2 in coal-fired power plants)
- the WO 93/19837 discloses a process for the denitrification of the exhaust gases which are produced in the production of cement. After leaving the rotary kiln, an ammonia solution is added to the exhaust gas via wall-mounted nozzles.
- the WO 2014/114320 describes a process for the treatment of nitrogen-containing exhaust gases from technical processes, such as flue gases, for reducing the nitrogen oxide content by means of chemical reduction of the nitrogen oxides.
- the reducing agent is injected into the reaction space through which the exhaust gases flow via nozzles arranged in the wall of the reaction space.
- the EP 2 962 743 A1 discloses the introduction of reducing agent into a boiler.
- the reducing agent is injected using lances into which one or more injectors for reducing agents are introduced. Burnout air is also supplied to the lances, for example.
- the reducing agent is injected into the lance and leaves the lance together with the burnout air through the nearest outlet openings of the lance into the flue gas.
- the US 5,342,592 discloses an injection lance with an outer tubular jacket with a plurality of openings and a cooling circuit.
- This tubular casing has an inner channel into which an injection lance is inserted.
- This in turn consists of an inner tube and an outer tube, with an intermediate space being formed.
- the reducing agent is passed through the inner tube and the blowing agent through the gap.
- the reducing agent passes directly into the flue gas stream from the inner pipe and via radial ducts bridging the intermediate space.
- the blowing agent meets the reducing agent at the outlet of these channels and enters the flue gas stream.
- the US 5,281,403 describes an injection lance system with an inner tube and an outer tube, which form an intermediate space through which the reducing agent is fed into a boiler.
- the reducing agent is introduced into the inner tube, which is provided with a plurality of nozzles along the longitudinal orientation of the inner tube.
- a carrier gas is introduced into the cavity of the outer tube.
- the nozzles of the inner tube inject the reactant into the flue gas through a respectively arranged outlet opening in the outer tube, the reagent being simultaneously mixed with the carrier gas, which is passed into the cavity of the outer tube and likewise leaves the lance system through said outlet opening.
- lances were also used for this purpose, such as, for example, two-substance nozzles spraying downwards, through which an ammonia / air mixture is atomized in the smoke gas flow direction.
- the nozzle of such a conventional lance is surrounded by an annular gap, through which, by means of a high overpressure, an envelope or veil of air is generated around the nozzle, which is intended to protect the nozzles against caking by the raw cement powder flying past in the calciner.
- reagents in particular in the form of fluids, ie in particular in the form of gases and / or liquids, are injected into combustion gases in order to reduce the pollution.
- the reaction spaces through which combustion gases flow are preferably calcinators or calcining reactors, flue gas ducts, boilers or combustion chambers.
- the angle of incidence is now the nozzle, which is located at the distal end or at the lance head, ie at the inside through which combustion gases flow of the reaction chamber protruding end of the lance system, beveled.
- the "distal end" of the lance system is the end which projects into the interior of the reaction space.
- the angle of the longitudinal axis of the nozzle to the longitudinal axis of the cladding tube is in a range from 25 to 65 °.
- the definition that the longitudinal axis of the nozzle of the injection lance in the installed state is angled at an angle of 25 to 65 ° to the longitudinal axis of the cladding tube and is inclined towards the end plate means that the longitudinal axis of the nozzle is at an angle of 90 ° +/- 10 ° to the level of the end plate.
- the angle of the longitudinal axis of the nozzle to the longitudinal axis of the cladding tube is preferably in the range from 30 to 60 °, more preferably in the range from 35 to 55 °, and particularly preferably around 45 °.
- the end plate can be flat or concave or convex. If the end plate is curved, the level of the end plate refers to the imaginary plane that is defined by the edge of the end plate.
- the nozzle of the injection lance is arranged and aligned in relation to the inner opening of the end plate so that the nozzle is seated in the inner opening of the end plate, a gap extending around the nozzle remaining or being able to remain.
- the “inner opening” of the end plate is an opening or a corresponding through hole arranged within the surface of the end plate. This opening or this through hole can be arranged substantially centered with respect to the surface of the end plate. Due to the arrangement of the end plate inclined to the longitudinal axis of the cladding tube, it has an oval shape.
- the nozzle of the injection lance at least partially passes through the inner opening of the end plate in the installed state, with a preferably all-round or uninterrupted gap remaining between the nozzle of the injection lance and the edge of the inner opening of the end plate.
- the inventive adjustment of the angle of the longitudinal axis of the nozzle to the longitudinal axis of the cladding tube, in comparison to a right angle, in conjunction with the likewise inclined end plate, allows the injection lance to be withdrawn through the cladding tube, which remains in place in the reaction space .
- This also makes it possible for the nozzle or the nozzle head a piece, preferably 6 to 8 mm, can protrude beyond the end plate in the direction of the reaction space, which would not be possible with a 90 ° deflection.
- This has the advantage that the risk of caking due to liquid droplets spraying directly from the nozzle onto the parts of the cladding tube surrounding the nozzle is greatly reduced.
- the nozzle of the injection lance protrudes through the inner opening of the end plate in the installed state, preferably 2 to 10 mm and particularly preferably 4 to 8 mm through the inner opening of the end plate.
- aligning the nozzle along the longitudinal axis of the cladding tube (angle 0 °) in accordance with the wall nozzles of the prior art has the disadvantage of less coverage of the cross section of the reaction space with reagent.
- a completely circumferential or uninterrupted gap remains in the installed state between the nozzle of the injection lance and the edge of the inner opening of the end plate.
- the end plate of the cladding tube is dimensioned such that a completely circumferential or uninterrupted gap is provided between the edge of the end plate and the inner wall of the cladding tube.
- a completely circumferential or uninterrupted gap remains between the nozzle of the injection lance and the edge of the inner opening of the end plate in the installed state, and a completely circumferential or uninterrupted gap between the edge of the end plate and the inner wall of the cladding tube.
- two concentric enveloping air ring gaps are now provided around the nozzle instead of only one enveloping air ring gap as previously in the prior art.
- the outer The gap runs uninterruptedly around the inclined end plate and flushes the gap between the outer area of this plate and the inner area of the lance tube. If cement dust gets through this outer veil of the enveloping air despite the repellent outer envelope air curtain, the cement dust is finally prevented from reaching the nozzle itself and its liquid droplets by the inner envelope air curtain, which directly surrounds the nozzle.
- the end plate of the cladding tube has further through holes or cladding air holes. These serve to keep the oblique cover plate with enveloping air, which flows from the inside of the cladding tube, free of cement dust. Preference is given to 3 to 10 enveloping air holes, preferably 4 to 6, particularly preferably 5 enveloping air holes which surround the inner opening of the end plate, i.e. in the installed state, are arranged around the nozzle or around the gap between the nozzle and the edge of the inner opening of the end plate.
- the lance system is constructed in such a way that the injection lance by means of ramp-like bevelled rails arranged on the inner wall of the cladding tube, into which guide lugs arranged on the side of the injection lance engage, inserted into the cladding tube and aligned and releasably fixed within the cladding tube, or the injection lance can be inserted into the cladding tube and aligned and detachably fixed within the cladding tube by means of guide lugs arranged on the inner wall of the cladding tube, which engage in ramp-like slanted rails arranged on the side of the injection lance.
- Another preferred embodiment of the lance system is designed such that the distance between the injection lance and the cladding tube is maintained by additional spacers, these spacers preferably being selected from the group consisting of fins, pins, rods, webs or guide plates.
- the supply for the reducing agent is preferably designed as a two-substance nozzle, the reducing agent being introduced together with a blowing agent (preferably compressed air).
- the injection lance has a central line for introducing the reducing agent (liquid reagent feed tube), and an intermediate space between the central line and the inner wall of the injection lance, via which a blowing agent (compressed air) is conducted separately from the supply of the reducing agent is to be mixed in the nozzle with the reducing agent and atomize it. It is therefore preferred in a further embodiment that the injection lance has a liquid reagent supply pipe and a compressed air supply pipe, the liquid reagent supply pipe preferably running in the compressed air supply pipe.
- the angled nozzle which is firmly connected to the feed tube for reagent and to the feed tube for compressed air, is ideally automatically centered into its end position into the inner opening by means of lateral guide lugs or ramp-like slanted rails when inserted into the cladding tube the end plate. Correct positioning is important because the gap between the nozzle and the edge of the internal opening should be approximately the same width all around.
- the gap around the nozzle can also be provided somewhat wider in the axial direction, ie to the front and back along the direction of insertion, since here the different temperature expansion between the outer cladding tube and the injection lance requires a certain amount of leeway.
- Reaction rooms such as calcinators, flue gas ducts or boilers or combustion rooms, some of which have large cross-sections, must be exposed to the appropriate reagents over the entire cross-section in order to optimally reduce pollutants.
- a far more effective flue gas cleaning effect can be achieved with the lance system according to the invention and thus a lower pollutant clean gas value with moderate use of reagents .
- the reagents can now also be reached in the central areas of the cross-section of reaction spaces that have not previously been able to be supplied with reagent.
- the lance system according to the invention can also be used in dust-laden combustion gases, in particular in calciners of cement plants, because the invention provides measures for the quick and easy disassembly and disassembly of the lance system for subsequent maintenance and cleaning, and preferably means for protecting the nozzles against caking.
- this supply for the enveloping air for the intermediate space is arranged in an outer section of the lance system, which is designed to supply the enveloping air to the intermediate space between the injection lance and the enveloping tube.
- the cladding tube has an inner end (which projects into the reaction space) and an outer end, the outer end being in fluid communication with a supply for introducing the cladding air into the intermediate space.
- the enveloping air introduced through the space between the cladding tube and the injection lance of the lance system serves to cool the lance system and to avoid deposits on the nozzle.
- the enveloping air is introduced into the outer tube of the lance system and forwarded into the space between the injection lance and the outer tube.
- the enveloping air finally exits through the gaps around the nozzle (or through the inner opening of the end plate of the cladding tube), through the gaps between the outer edge of the end plate and the cladding tube and possibly through further through holes in the end plate, ie into the interior of the reaction space.
- the enveloping air surrounds the reducing agent / air mixture injected through the nozzle in the form of two enveloping air curtains (the inner and the outer enveloping air curtain) and finally hits the combustion gas.
- the enveloping air or the enveloping air curtain also prevents caking on the nozzle or on the outlet openings, in that possibly moistened and agglomerated dust particles are kept away.
- reagents such as nitrogen oxide reducing agents, can be mixed into a combustion gas as evenly as possible.
- the lance system is designed to introduce reducing agents for the selective non-catalytic reduction of nitrogen oxides in combustion gases into the reaction spaces through which combustion gases flow.
- the lance system has an inner section that is designed to be arranged within the reaction space and an outer section that is designed to be arranged outside the reaction space, wherein a quick-action coupling is provided to the injection lance through the insert the outer section arranged opening of the cladding tube into the cladding tube and fasten by means of the quick release coupling.
- the quick release coupling is used to be able to quickly and easily install and remove the injection lance. With the quick release coupling, the connection between the two lance parts "cladding tube” and “injection lance” can be made quickly and also released again. So far, a flange with several screws was provided at this point, but this means much more effort for maintenance and repair work on the lance system.
- the lance system is preferably designed to handle combustion gases with a dust load of 1 g / Nm 3 up to 1000 g / Nm 3 at a volume flow of 10,000 to 2,000,000 m 3 / h, preferably from 30 g / Nm 3 to 1000 g / Nm 3 at a volume flow of 10,000 to 2,000,000 m 3 / h, more preferably from 100 g / Nm 3 to 1000 g / Nm 3 at a volume flow of 10,000 to 2,000,000 m 3 / h.
- the dust load of combustion gas streams in the combustion chamber of power plants is typically in the range from 1 g / Nm 3 to 10 g / Nm 3 , while the dust load, for example in calcining reactors in cement plants, is in the range from 100 g / Nm 3 to 1000 g / Nm 3 .
- the cladding tube has a round or circular cross section.
- the diameter of the cladding tube decreases in the direction of the end projecting into the reaction space, i.e. towards the inner (distal) end. This measure serves to maintain the speed of the mass flow in the intermediate space and to reduce the weight of the lance system. This measure will usually only be necessary for longer lances.
- the cladding tube can be tapered continuously or in stages.
- a protective hood is formed as an extension of the cladding tube at the end projecting into the reaction space, which partially runs around the end plate and projects beyond the end plate.
- the protective hood preferably extends over a distance along the circumference from 1/3 to 1/2 of the circumference of the cladding tube.
- the protective hood is arranged on the side from which the flow of the combustion gases or the dust particles, in particular the cement dust particles, comes. This protective hood serves to ensure that the nozzle is not directly exposed to the combustion gases or the dust particles, in particular the cement dust particles.

In normal operation, this cladding tube is cooled by the constantly flowing envelope air and does not even approach the temperature of the surrounding flue gas. However, if this cooling envelope air fails, e.g.

- air is led into the space between the injection lance and the cladding tube (enveloping air), the enveloping air emerging from the cladding tube through the opening (or through the gap directly surrounding the nozzle) and through the gap between the end plate and the cladding tube, and that surrounds injected reactant and finally meets the combustion gases in the reaction space.
- a nitrogen-containing compound is used as the reducing agent for reducing nitrogen oxides, selected from the group consisting of: urea, ammonia, cyanuric acid, hydrazine, ethanolamine, biuret, triuret, ammelides, ammonium salts of organic and inorganic acids (for example ammonium acetate, ammonium sulfate, ammonium bisulfate, ammonium bisulfite, Ammonium formate, ammonium carbonate, ammonium bicarbonate, ammonium nitrate, ammonium oxalate), preferably urea or ammonia.
- the reducing agent is preferably supplied in aqueous solution (e.g. ammonia water or urea dissolved in water) or in gaseous form (ammonia) into the lance system, in particular into the injection lance, preferably into the liquid reagent feed tube.
- the reducing agent is mixed on or in the nozzle of the injection lance with separately supplied compressed air for atomization.
- the reagent or the reducing agent strikes combustion gas at a temperature in the range from 850 ° C. to 1,000 ° C. when it emerges from the cladding tube of the lance system.
- the Figure 1 shows a schematic longitudinal section through the lance system 1 according to the invention.
- the lance system is used for introducing reagents into reaction spaces 2 through which combustion gases 3 flow, such as calciners of cement plants.
- the lance system 1 shown in the figure comprises a cladding tube 6, which contains an injection lance 7 with a nozzle 8 on the inside.
- the injection lance 7 has a feed tube for a liquid reagent 19 and a feed tube for compressed air 18.
- the liquid reagent supply pipe 19 lies within the compressed air supply pipe 18.
- the cladding tube 6 has at its distal end protruding into the reaction space 2 an end plate 9 which delimits the interior of the cladding tube 6 towards the outside.
- the end plate 9 has an inner opening 11, into which the nozzle 8 of the injection lance 7 is inserted such that a circumferential gap 11 remains between the nozzle 8 and the edge of the inner opening of the end plate 9.
- the plane of the end plate 9 is inclined to the longitudinal axis of the cladding tube 6 so that the injection lance 7 with the nozzle 8 can be pulled out of the cladding tube 6 without the likewise inclined nozzle 8 getting caught in the opening 11 of the end plate 9.
- the longitudinal axis of the nozzle 8 is inclined at an angle of 45 ° to the longitudinal axis of the cladding tube and the plane of the end plate 9 is also inclined at an angle of 45 ° to the longitudinal axis of the cladding tube.
- the longitudinal axis of the nozzle 8 comes to lie at an angle of 90 ° to the plane of the end plate 9.
- the construction according to the invention allows the nozzle 8 or the nozzle head to be a bit, e.g. 6 to 8 mm, can protrude beyond the end plate 9 in the direction of the reaction chamber 2, which would not be possible with a 90 ° deflection of the nozzle 8 to the longitudinal axis of the cladding tube 6.
- This offers the advantage that the risk of caking due to liquid droplets spraying directly from the nozzle onto the surrounding protective hood 22 is greatly reduced.
- a completely circumferential or uninterrupted gap 12 is also provided between the edge of the end plate 9 and the inner wall of the cladding tube 6.
- the end plate 9 is fastened to the cladding tube 6 with the aid of fastenings 10 fitted inside the cladding tube 6.
- These fastenings 10 are attached to the inside of the end plate 9 and in particular at a distance from the edge of the end plate 9 and to the inside of the cladding tube such that a completely circumferential or uninterrupted gap 12 remains between the edge of the end plate 9 and the inner wall of the cladding tube 6 , through which enveloping air can flow outside without obstruction.
- the lance system 1 shown in the figure has two concentric enveloping air ring gaps around the nozzle 8.
- the outer gap 12 extends uninterruptedly around the edge of the oblique end plate 9.
- the through this gap 12 enveloping air free the gap between the outer region of the end plate 9 and the inner region of the cladding tube 6.
- there is a further inner enveloping air curtain which is generated by the gap 11 which directly surrounds the nozzle 8.
- the two enveloping air curtains prevent cement dust from reaching the nozzle 8 itself and its liquid droplets.
- the figure shows one of several further through holes 13 in the end plate 9, which serve to keep the oblique end plate 9 free of cement dust with the enveloping air flowing out of the cladding tube 6.
- These additional through holes 13 or enveloping air holes are around the inner opening 11 of the end plate 9, i.e. arranged around the gap between the nozzle 8 and thus also around the edge of the inner opening of the end plate 9.
- the figure also shows guide lugs 14, which are attached to the injection lance 7, and ramp-like slanted rails 15, which are arranged on the inner wall of the cladding tube 6.
- the guide lugs 14 engage when inserting the injection lance 7 into the cladding tube 6 in the rails 15, so that the injection lance 7 is correctly aligned and releasably fixed within the cladding tube 6.
- the guide lugs 14 and ramp-like bevelled rails 15 are constructed and arranged such that when the injection lance 7 is inserted, the nozzle 8 comes to rest in the opening 11 of the end plate 9 in such a way that a gap 11 remains around the nozzle 8 and the axis of the Nozzle 8 is substantially perpendicular to the plane of the end plate 9.
- the in the Figure 1 The embodiment of the lance system 1 shown has an inner section 4, which is arranged inside the reaction chamber 2, and an outer section 5, which is arranged outside the reaction chamber.
- the injection lance 7 is inserted into the cladding tube 6 through the outer end of the cladding tube 6 arranged in the outer section 5 and fastened by means of a quick-release coupling 21.
- the quick release coupling 21 serves to be able to install and remove the injection lance 7 easily and quickly.
- the supply for envelope air 17 the envelope air in the space 16 between the injection lance in the outer section 5 7 and the cladding tube 6 conducts, the supply for compressed air 23 and the supply for the liquid reagent 24 are arranged.
- Figure 2 shows a detail of the nozzle 8 and the end plate 9 in longitudinal section.
- the end of the cladding tube 6, which protrudes into the reaction space, has an end plate 9, as explained above. This limits the interior 16 of the cladding tube 6 to the outside.
- An inner opening 11 is arranged in the central region of the end plate 9.
- the nozzle 8 of the injection lance 7 is introduced into this opening 11 such that a complete circumferential gap 11 remains between the nozzle 8 and the edge of the inner opening of the end plate 9. Envelope air from this interior 11 of the cladding tube enters the reaction space through this gap 11. In this way, an enveloping air curtain is generated which (completely) surrounds the nozzle 8 and the fluid injected by this nozzle.
- the detailed view shows that the plane of the end plate 9 is inclined to the longitudinal axis of the cladding tube 6.
- the longitudinal axis of the nozzle 8 is inclined at an angle of 45 ° to the longitudinal axis of the cladding tube 6 in the direction of the end plate 9.
- the design allows the injection lance 7 with the nozzle 8 to be pulled out of the cladding tube 6 without the nozzle 8 getting caught in the opening 11 of the end plate 9. In this way, the injection lance 7 can be pulled out of the cladding tube for cleaning and maintenance of the same as well as the cladding tube 6, the cladding tube 6 remaining in place protruding into the reaction space.
- the view further shows the possibility that the nozzle 8 or the nozzle head can protrude somewhat beyond the end plate 9 in the direction of the reaction space 2. This would not be possible with a lance with a 90 ° deflection of the nozzle head 8 in relation to the longitudinal direction of the cladding tube 6.
- the figure also shows the gap 12, which is provided all the way around the end plate 9 between the edge of the end plate 9 and the inner wall of the cladding tube 6.
- the end plate 9 is fastened to the inside of the cladding tube 6 by means of fastenings 10.
- the fastenings 10 are spaced on the inside of the end plate 9 from the edge of the end plate 9 as well as attached to the inside of the cladding tube, so that a completely circumferential or uninterrupted gap 12 remains between the edge of the end plate 9 and the inner wall of the cladding tube 6, through which envelope air can flow to the outside without obstruction.
- the figure also shows one of several further through holes 13 in the end plate 9.
- These through holes 13 serve to keep the oblique end plate 9 and the nozzle 8 and surrounding areas free of cement dust with the help of the enveloping air flowing out of the cladding tube 6.
- These additional through holes 13 or enveloping air holes are around the inner opening 11 of the end plate 9, i.e. arranged around the gap between the nozzle 8 and thus also around the edge of the inner opening of the end plate 9.
- FIGS. 3 and 4 show a view of the end plate 9.
- Figure 4 shows the same view as a longitudinal section.
- the end of the cladding tube 6 projecting into the reaction space has an end plate 9 which delimits the interior 16 of the cladding tube 6 towards the outside.
- An inner opening 11 is arranged in the central region of the end plate 9.
- the nozzle 8 of the injection lance 7 is introduced into this opening 11 in such a way that a complete circumferential gap 11 remains between the nozzle and the edge of the inner opening of the end plate 9.
- a gap 12 is arranged which completely runs around the end plate 9 between the edge of the end plate 9 and the inner wall of the cladding tube 6.
- five through holes 13 are further provided in the end plate 9, which are arranged around the inner opening 11 of the end plate 9 and thus around the nozzle 8.
- a protective hood 22 is formed as an extension of the cladding tube 6, which is arranged on the side from which the flow of the combustion gases or the flow of the cement dust particles comes. This protective hood 22 serves to ensure that the nozzle 8 and surrounding areas are not directly exposed to the combustion gases or the cement dust particles.
- the guide within the cladding tube 6 is also shown in longitudinal section in order to correctly position the end of the injection lance 7 and in particular the nozzle 8 so that the nozzle 8 comes to rest in the inner opening 11 of the end plate 9 and a gap 11 around the nozzle 8 remains around.
- one of the guide lugs 14 arranged on the injection lance 7 can be seen which, when the injection lance 7 is inserted into the cladding tube 6 into the rail 15 (see also Figures 1 and 3rd ) intervenes.
- further ramp-bevelled rails 15 are shown in the figure at the end of the cladding tube 6, which serve for the exact positioning of the nozzle 8.
- corresponding guide lugs 14 or spacers 14 are also arranged in the region of the nozzle 8, which are in contact with the ramp-like slanted rails in the installed state.
- the rails 15, guide lugs 14 and spacers 14 are constructed and arranged such that when the injection lance 7 is pushed in, the nozzle 8 comes to lie in the opening 11 of the end plate 9 such that a gap 11 remains around the nozzle 8 and the axis the nozzle 8 is substantially perpendicular to the plane of the end plate 9.
