Definitions
- Injection device for dispensing a gas, process gas system for
- the invention relates to an injection device for dispensing a gas, a process gas system for supplying a process gas and an apparatus and a method for thermal or thermo-chemical treatment, in particular for calcining, of material, in particular battery cathode material.
- a powdered cathode material is, for example, a lithium-containing transition metal precursor which is calcined in the furnace to form a lithium transition metal oxide. Depending on whether lithium hydroxide or lithium carbonate precursors are used, this process releases water (H 2 O) or carbon dioxide (CO 2 ) as exhaust gas from the lithium-containing transition metal precursor.
- the temperature during the calcination of such materials depends in a manner known per se on the material to be treated and the type of furnace used.
- the process gas which is blown into the process space mixes on the way to the material to be treated with the atmosphere which is already present in the process space.
- This mixed gas, which ultimately reaches the material therefore contains the process gas in a lower concentration on the one hand and, on the other hand, exhaust gas already present in the process room atmosphere.
- the effect of the process gas on the material to be treated can therefore only be influenced to a slightly satisfactory degree, and there is only limited control and control of the atmosphere prevailing on the material.
- the process gas must be heated to the temperature in the process room.
- this heating of the process gas takes place actively, ie using the energy required to generate the heat, by heating units.
- the actively heated process gas is then, for example, a gas flow generated by a blower in gas lines, which for the most part leads outside the furnace, but partly also in the furnace wall, to the place of action in, on and in a close area around the battery. Cathode material directed. In order to avoid loss of thermal energy, cost-intensive and complex measures for isolating the gas line routed outside the furnace are necessary.
- the temperature of the process gas fed in is generally considerably lower than the temperature of the process room atmosphere.
- the process gas fed in is often not adequately heated before reaching the material to be treated or loses heat energy on the way there, so that incomplete reactions can result.
- the cooler process gas can absorb heat from the material carriers or from other components of the conveyor system, which can lead to thermal stresses, which can lead to higher wear and possibly to premature failure of components and components of the furnace.
- the object of the invention is therefore to provide an injection device for dispensing a gas, a process gas system for supplying a process gas and an apparatus and a method for thermal or thermo-chemical treatment, which counter the disadvantages from the prior art explained above and in the process space optimally passively and energy-efficiently transfer existing heat to the gas / process gas.
- an injection device for dispensing a gas, in particular a process gas, onto a material, in particular onto a battery cathode material to be calcined, with a) at least one inlet, through which the gas can be fed to the injection device, and at least one outlet, through which the gas can be discharged from the injection device, which are connected to one another by a flow path for the gas; wherein b) the flow path has a heat exchanger with a heat exchanger housing which is accessible from the outside for an ambient atmosphere and in which a duct arrangement is accommodated; c) the channel arrangement comprises a first flow channel and a second flow channel, between which a deflection area is formed, such that the first and second flow channels can be flowed through by the gas with different main flow directions.
- the injection device is arranged in a furnace or the like such that the existing process room atmosphere flows around the heat exchanger housing or at least is surrounded by the existing process room atmosphere, so that heat transfer is possible.
- the heat transfer from the furnace atmosphere or from the furnace interior to the injection device takes place not only by flow, but also and possibly even predominantly by radiation. Even if there is no flow in the furnace, heat is transferred.
- the heat exchanger housing can thus be arranged in a largely flow-free or even stationary process room atmosphere. In the following, it is assumed as an example that a moving process space atmosphere flows around the heat exchanger housing.
- the at least one inlet and the at least one outlet are arranged essentially mirror-symmetrically or asymmetrically with respect to one another with respect to an axis of symmetry.
- the channel arrangement has a third flow channel in addition to the first and second flow channels, a second deflection region being formed between the third and second flow channels, such that the second and third flow channels are separated from the gas with different main flows flow directions are flowable.
- the flow channels preferably specify a meandering flow pattern within the channel arrangement.
- a meandering flow course can be present in the case of a two-dimensional S flow course, but also three-dimensional channel arrangements which, for example, prescribe a tortuous flow course in which the flow is deflected at least twice and the deflections are in two at an angle to one another, in particular to one another vertical, planes.
- the first and the second, the first and the third, or the second and the third flow channel advantageously define a common plane, the third or the second or the first flow channel being offset with respect to this plane or being arranged at an angle .
- the gas flowing through the flow channels is redirected once within the defined level and once from the defined level to another level, that is to say for example to the left / right or up / down.
- Deflections at an angle of 20 ° to 180 ° to the main flow direction in the respective flow channel are preferred.
- a deflection by 180 ° causes a change in the main flow direction in a direction opposite to the main flow direction of the previous flow channel.
- the channel arrangement comprises, in addition to the three flow channels, one or more further flow channels and in each case a deflection area in front of each further flow channel, such that the gas can flow through two successive flow channels with different main flow directions.
- a core structure is formed in one or more flow channels.
- the core structures can be arranged on the flow guide elements or on an inner surface of the heat exchanger housing. But they can also be arranged such that they form an annular space in the flow channels for the gas. In such an arrangement, the core structures can preferably be connected at the end with the inner surfaces of the heat exchanger housing.
- the core structures are solid core bodies.
- core bodies have throughflow openings in such a way that the gas flowing through the flow channels likewise flows through the throughflow openings and can therefore not only absorb heat energy on outer surfaces of the core bodies.
- the core body it is also advantageous if, at least in sections, they have a cross section in the flow direction that is circular, elliptical, segmental, segmental, polygonal, in particular triangular, quadrangular, in particular trapezoidal, trapezoidal or rectangular, pentagonal, hexagonal or polygonal.
- the core bodies can have indentations and / or protuberances for a further enlargement of the temperature transfer surface involved in the temperature transfer, with the volume of the flow channels remaining essentially the same. These indentations and / or protuberances can be present regularly or irregularly on the core bodies.
- thermoelectric cooler and / or one or more of the flow channels can have a cross section, at least in sections, which is circular, is elliptical, segment-shaped, sector-shaped, polygonal, in particular triangular, four-sided, in particular trapezoidal, trapezoidal or rectangular, pentagonal, hexagonal or polygonal.
- one or more of the flow channels in the respective main flow direction can have cross-sections which change in area shape and / or area size at least in sections.
- the heat exchanger housing and walls of the flow channels formed therein are made of one or more particularly thermally conductive materials.
- the material or the materials preferably have a specific thermal conductivity of 1> 50 Wm 1 K 1 , preferably 1> 75 Wm 1 K 1 and particularly preferably 1> 100 Wm 1 K 1 .
- Particularly suitable materials for this are, for example, materials which have a metal content, for example elemental metals, metal alloys, metal oxides, metal nitrides or metal carbides.
- the metal content can advantageously be copper (Cu), tin (Sb), zinc (Zn), silver (Ag), magnesium (Mg), nickel (Ni), beryllium (Be), aluminum (Al), potassium (Ka), Molybdenum (Mo), tungsten (W), sodium (Na), iron (Fe), silicon (Si) and tantalum (Ta).
- Heat exchangers comprising silicon carbide (SiC) and copper alloys are particularly suitable for the injection device according to the invention due to their high thermal conductivity.
- the heat exchanger mainly uses metal-ceramic materials.
- materials are used which do not release metal or metal compounds at the present temperatures, which can contaminate the material to be calcined.
- the channel arrangement can at least partially be formed by a flow guide structure which can be inserted into the heat exchanger housing and can be detachably fastened therein.
- a flow control structure can be used here can be formed, for example, by connecting flow guide elements.
- the heat exchanger housing can be provided as a hollow body, for example, and the flow guide structure can be used to form the channel arrangement in this prior to assembly of the injection device.
- a detachable fastening of the flow guide structure enables a user to adapt the distance to be covered by the gas within the heat exchanger to the requirements of the respective production step.
- the heat exchanger housing comprises housing caps, which in particular provide part of the channel arrangement.
- part of the heat exchanger and the channel arrangement can be formed in one piece, for example as an extruded profile or a rolled profile.
- the heat exchanger is then completed by the housing caps.
- a separate flow guide structure can also be used in the heat exchanger shear housing with the housing caps removed, which are then introduced. It is advantageous if the housing caps define the deflection areas.
- the injection device comprises a nozzle arrangement with one or more injection nozzles, by means of which the gas can be delivered in a directed manner to the material to be treated.
- the nozzle arrangement can be a component independent of the heat exchanger, but can also be comprised by the heat exchanger.
- a process gas system for supplying a process gas, in particular a process gas for a thermal or thermochemical treatment, in particular a calcination, of material, in particular battery cathode material, into a process space

Furthermore, the injection nozzles 76a can be arranged at an angle to the nozzle arrangement 76 with respect to the base 16a and / or the conveying direction 30 in order to dispense the process gas 54 in a directed manner onto the brazier 42 and / or the material 12. All the injection nozzles 76a arranged on the nozzle arrangement 76 can dispense the process gas 54 at different or the same angles.
- process gas 54 reaches the process location on the material 12, on the other hand, the process gas 54 displaces the resulting exhaust gas 46, in the present case thus water (H2O) or carbon dioxide (CO2), as a result of which the discharge 46 is effectively removed from the exhaust system 48
- Process room 20 can be suctioned off.
- process gas 54 Due to the directed delivery of the process gas 54, the gas partial pressure in the immediate vicinity of the material 12 is changed, which in turn has an influence on the process parameters and thereby on the chemical and physical properties of the resulting product.
