Definitions

  • the invention relates to a biomass heating system and its components.
  • the invention relates to a flow-optimized biomass heating system.
  • Biomass heating systems in particular biomass boilers, in a power range from 20 to 500 kW are known.
  • Biomass can be considered a cheap, domestic, crisis-proof and environmentally friendly fuel.
  • wood chips or pellets as combustible biomass or biogenic solid fuels.
  • the pellets usually consist of wood shavings, sawdust, biomass or other material that has been compacted into small discs or cylinders approximately 3 to 15 mm in diameter and 5 to 30 mm long.
  • Wood chips also known as wood chips, woodchips or woodchips
  • wood chips are wood that has been crushed with cutting tools.
  • Biomass heating systems for fuels in the form of pellets and wood chips essentially have a boiler with a combustion chamber (the combustion chamber) and a heat exchange device connected to it. Due to the stricter legal regulations in many countries, some biomass heating systems also have a fine dust filter. Other various accessories are regularly available, such as fuel delivery devices, Control devices, probes, safety thermostats, pressure switches, flue gas recirculation, boiler cleaning and a separate fuel tank.
  • a device for supplying fuel, a device for supplying air and an ignition device for the fuel are regularly provided in the combustion chamber.
  • the means for supplying the air normally comprises a low-pressure fan in order to favorably influence the thermodynamic factors of combustion in the combustion chamber.
  • a device for supplying fuel can be provided, for example, with a lateral insert (so-called transverse insert firing). The fuel is pushed into the combustion chamber from the side via a screw or a piston.
  • a furnace grate In the combustion chamber of a fixed-bed furnace, a furnace grate is also usually provided, on which the fuel is essentially supplied and burned continuously.
  • This grate stores the fuel for combustion and has openings, for example slots, which allow the passage of part of the combustion air as primary air to the fuel.
  • the grate can be rigid or movable.
  • the combustion chamber can also be regularly divided into a primary combustion zone (immediate combustion of the fuel on the grate and in the gas space above it before additional combustion air is supplied) and a secondary combustion zone (post-combustion zone of the flue gas after another air supply) are divided.
  • the combustion of the pellets or wood chips essentially has two phases.
  • the fuel is at least partially pyrolytically decomposed and converted into gas by high temperatures and air that can be blown into the combustion chamber.
  • the (partial) part that has been converted into gas is burned, as well as the burning of any remaining solids (e.g. charcoal).
  • the fuel outgasses, and the resulting gas and the charcoal contained therein are also burned.
  • Pyrolysis is the thermal decomposition of a solid substance in the absence of oxygen. Pyrolysis can be divided into primary and secondary pyrolysis.
  • the products of primary pyrolysis are pyrolysis coke and pyrolysis gases, the pyrolysis gases being divided into room temperature condensable and non-condensable gases.
  • the primary pyrolysis takes place at roughly 250-450°C and the secondary pyrolysis at around 450-600°C.
  • the secondary pyrolysis that subsequently occurs is based on the further reaction of the pyrolysis products that were primarily formed.
  • the drying and pyrolysis take place at least largely without the use of air, since volatile CH compounds escape from the particle and therefore no air can reach the particle surface.
  • Gasification can be seen as part of oxidation; the solid, liquid and gaseous products formed during the pyrolytic decomposition are reacted by further exposure to heat. This is done by adding a gasification agent such as air, oxygen, water vapor or carbon dioxide.
  • a gasification agent such as air, oxygen, water vapor or carbon dioxide.
  • the lambda value during gasification is greater than zero and less than one. Gasification takes place at around 300 to 850°C or even up to 1,200°C.
  • the complete oxidation with excess air (lambda greater than 1) takes place by adding more air to these processes.
  • the Reaction end products are essentially carbon dioxide, water vapor and ash. In all phases, the boundaries are not rigid, but fluid.
  • the combustion process can be advantageously regulated by means of a lambda probe provided at the exhaust gas outlet of the boiler.
  • the combustion of biomass produces gaseous or airborne combustion products, the main components of which are carbon, hydrogen and oxygen. These can be divided into emissions from complete oxidation, from incomplete oxidation and substances from trace elements or impurities.
  • the emissions from complete oxidation are essentially carbon dioxide (CO 2 ) and water vapor (H 2 O).
  • the formation of carbon dioxide from the carbon in the biomass is the goal of combustion, as the released energy can be used more fully.
  • the release of carbon dioxide (CO 2 ) is largely proportional to the carbon content of the fuel burned; thus the carbon dioxide is also dependent on the useful energy to be provided. A reduction can essentially only be achieved by improving the efficiency.
  • exhaust gas recirculation devices which return exhaust gas from the boiler to the combustion chamber for cooling and renewed combustion.
  • Flue gas recirculation can take place below or above the grate.
  • the flue gas can be recirculated mixed with the combustion air or separately.
  • the exhaust gas from combustion in the combustion chamber is fed to the heat exchanger so that the hot combustion gases flow through the heat exchanger to transfer heat to a heat exchange medium, which is normally water at around 80°C (usually between 70°C and 110°C). °C).
  • the boiler further usually has a radiant part, which is integrated into the combustion chamber, and a convection part (the heat exchanger connected thereto).
  • the ignition device is mostly a hot air device or a glow device.
  • combustion is started by supplying hot air to the combustion chamber, the hot air being heated by an electrical resistance.
  • the ignition device comprises a glow plug/rod or several glow plugs to heat the pellets or wood chips by direct contact until combustion begins.
  • the glow plugs can also be equipped with a motor to remain in contact with the pellets or wood chips during the ignition phase and then move back to avoid being exposed to the flames. This solution is subject to wear and tear and expensive.
  • a disadvantage of traditional pellet biomass heating systems can be that pellets falling into the combustion chamber can roll off the grid or grate, slide off, or land next to the grate and end up in an area of the combustion chamber where the temperature is lower or where the air supply is poor, or they can even fall into the bottom chamber of the boiler or the ash chute. Pellets that do not remain on the grid or grate burn incompletely, causing poor efficiency, excessive ash and a certain amount of unburned pollutant particles. This applies to pellets as well as wood chips.
  • the known biomass heating systems for pellets have, for example, baffles in the vicinity of the grate and/or the outlet of the combustion gas in order to retain fuel elements in certain places.
  • Some boilers have shoulders on the inside of the combustion chamber to prevent pellets from falling into the ash removal and/or the bottom chamber of the boiler.
  • these baffles and ledges can trap combustion residues, making cleaning difficult and can restrict airflow in the combustion chamber, which in turn reduces efficiency.
  • these baffles require their own production and assembly costs. This applies to pellets as well as wood chips.
  • Biomass heating systems for pellets or wood chips have the following additional disadvantages and problems.
  • Another problem is the non-uniform distribution of pellets in the combustion chamber and especially on the grate, which reduces combustion efficiency and increases the emission of harmful substances. This disadvantage can also impede the ignition if there is an area without fuel is near the ignition device. This applies to pellets as well as wood chips.
  • Baffles or ledges in the combustion chamber can limit this inconvenience and prevent the fuel from rolling or sliding off the grate or even falling into the bottom chamber of the boiler, but they impede airflow and prevent optimal mixing of air and fuel.
  • Another problem is that incomplete combustion as a result of non-uniform distribution of fuel from the grate and as a result of non-optimal mixing of air and fuel can lead to the accumulation and fall of unburned ash through the air intake openings leading directly to the combustion grate, or from the grate end into the air ducts or air supply area.
  • Hot air devices require high electrical power and incur high costs. Spark plugs require less power, but they require moving parts because the spark plugs must be motorized. They are expensive, complicated and can pose a problem in terms of reliability.
