  Next, the drying of the lignite 6 by the hydrated matter drying system 5 according to the present embodiment will be further described.

  First, the unpulverized brown coal 6 is put into the pulverizer 11 and pulverized by the pulverizer 11 so that the particle diameter becomes 2 mm or less. After the lignite 6 pulverized by the pulverizer 11 is stored in the lignite hopper 17, the lignite 6 is charged into the drying device 12 through the lignite supply line 16.

  At this time, the lignite 6 supplied from the lignite hopper 17 is dispersed in the width direction by the inclination of the rotating paddle 57 that reciprocally rotates, and is distributed to the first input portion 62 to the fourth input portion 65. The lignite 6 is further dispersed in the width direction by sliding down the first charging portion 62 to the fourth charging portion 65 while being guided by the first and third sorting members 58 to 60, and the width direction. The lignite 6 is uniformly fed into the drying device 12 in the width direction from the lignite inlet 35 formed over the entire length or substantially the entire length.

  The rotational speed of the rotary paddle 57 when the lignite 6 is charged is appropriately set according to various conditions such as the supply amount of the lignite 6.

  The lignite 6 charged into the drying device 12 is deposited in the first drying compartment 48, and is liquefied by supplying the bubbling steam 23 from the steam supply nozzle 24 to the deposited lignite 6 and flowing. The fluidized bed 27 of the lignite 6 having properties is formed.

  In parallel with the above processing, superheated steam is introduced into the heat transfer tube 28 via the superheated steam introduction line 29, and the superheated steam flows through the heat transfer tube 28.

  The fluidized bed 27 flows downward in the first drying compartment 48, passes through the gap 44, and flows into the second drying compartment 49. At this time, since the introduced lignite 6 contains a large amount of moisture, the lignite 6 flows down by its own weight. The lower lignite 6 is extruded into the second drying compartment 49 through the gap 44 by pressure from above. The lignite 6 is in contact with the heat transfer pipe 28 in the process of flowing from the first drying compartment 48 to the second drying compartment 49, and the heat of the superheated steam flowing through the heat transfer pipe 28 and the bubbling steam 23. Heated by exchange and dried.

  The size of the gap 44 is set according to the fluidity of the fluidized bed 27 so that the lignite 6 does not move over the first partition wall 38 and move to the second drying compartment 49. Further, the amount of lignite 6 fed from the lignite hopper 17 is adjusted so as not to get over the first dividing wall 38 and move to the second drying compartment 49.

  The lignite 6 that has flowed into the second drying compartment 49 is reversed in the second drying compartment 49 and flows upward from below, crosses over the second dividing wall 39 and enters the third drying compartment 50. Flows in the third drying compartment 50 and flows downward from above, flows through the gap 45 and flows into the fourth drying compartment 51, and reverses in the fourth drying compartment 51. It flows from the bottom to the top.

  At this time, due to heat exchange in the first drying compartment 48, the lignite 6 is dried and the fluidity of the fluidized bed 27 is increased, and the lignite 6 is further pressurized by the pressure from the first drying compartment 48 side. It smoothly flows to the third drying compartment 50 and the fourth drying compartment 51 without backflow.

  Also in the second drying compartment 49 to the fourth drying compartment 51, the lignite 6 is heated by the superheated steam and the bubbling steam 23 that circulates in the heat transfer tube 28 in the process of flowing while the lignite 6 is reversed up and down. Dried.

  The dry lignite 7 dried in the first dry compartment 48 to the fourth dry compartment 51 flows over the fourth dividing wall 41 and flows to the fifth dry compartment 52 in the cooling region 15. The dry lignite 7 that has flowed into the fifth dry compartment 52 is reversed in the fifth dry compartment 52 and flows downward from above, flows through the gap 46, and flows into the sixth dry compartment 53. To do. The dry lignite 7 is reversed in the sixth dry compartment 53 and flows upward from below, flows over the sixth partition wall 43 and flows into the seventh dry compartment 54, and the lignite discharge line 21. More discharged.

  The dry lignite 7 is cooled by the cooling air 25 supplied from the cooling air supply nozzle 26 in the process of flowing while inverting the fifth dry compartment 52 to the seventh dry compartment 54.

  The superheated steam that flows through the heat transfer tube 28 undergoes heat exchange with the lignite 6 in the fluidized bed 27 in the process of flowing through the heat transfer tube 28. As a result of heat exchange, the superheated steam recovers its latent heat of condensation, changes its phase, becomes condensed water, and is sent to a condenser such as a condenser (not shown) via the drain pipe 31.

  The cooled dry lignite 7 discharged from the drying chamber 13 is sent to the burner 3, and the dry lignite 7 is burned by the burner 3.

  As described above, in the present embodiment, the length in the width direction of the drying device 12 is about two to three times longer than the length in the flow direction of the lignite 6, so that the volume of the drying device 12 is increased. A large amount of the lignite 6 can be dried at a time.

  In addition, the lignite 6 supplied from the lignite hopper 17 is distributed in the width direction by the rotating paddle 57, and the lignite 6 distributed by the first segment member 58 to the third segment member 60 is guided. Since the lignite 6 can be dispersed in the width direction by sliding down, the lignite 6 can be introduced uniformly over the entire length in the width direction or substantially the entire length of the lignite input port 35. The lignite 6 can be dried evenly and efficiently.

  Further, in the first embodiment, the fourth partition wall 41 partitions the drying chamber 13 into the heating region 14 for heating and drying the lignite 6 and the cooling region 15 for cooling the dry lignite 7. In the drying chamber 13, both the drying of the lignite 6 and the cooling of the dried lignite 7 can be performed. Therefore, it is not necessary to provide a cooling mechanism for cooling the dry lignite 7, so that the apparatus configuration is simplified and the manufacturing cost can be reduced.

  Also, the heating area 14 is divided into the first drying compartment 48, the four partition walls, the first partition wall 38, the second partition wall 39, the third partition wall 40, and the fourth partition wall 41. Divided into four drying compartments, a second drying compartment 49, a third drying compartment 50, and a fourth drying compartment 51, and each division so that the lignite 6 flows while inverting up and down between the drying compartments 48-51. Walls 38 to 41 are arranged. Therefore, the distance over which the lignite 6 flows is increased, the time for heating by the heat transfer tube 28 and the bubbling steam 23 can be increased, the drying device 12 can be downsized, and a large amount of the lignite 6 can be obtained. It can be dried efficiently.

  In addition, the cooling region 15 is divided into the fifth drying compartment 52, the sixth drying compartment 53, the three partition walls of the fourth partition wall 41, the fifth partition wall 42, and the sixth partition wall 43. Each of the dividing walls 41 to 43 is arranged so that the dry lignite 7 is divided into three drying compartments of the seventh drying compartment 54 and flows while the dry lignite 7 is inverted between the respective drying compartments 52 to 54. Therefore, the distance over which the dry lignite 7 flows, that is, the time during which it is cooled by the cooling air 25 can be lengthened, and a large amount of the dry lignite 7 can be efficiently cooled.

  Further, upper ends of the first dividing wall 38, the third dividing wall 40, and the fifth dividing wall 42 are protruded upward from the surface of the fluidized bed 27, and the first dividing wall 38, the third dividing wall are projected. 40. The gaps 44 to 46 are formed between the lower end of the fifth dividing wall 42 and the bottom plate 22, respectively, and the second dividing wall 39, the fourth dividing wall 41, and the sixth dividing wall 43 are formed. Since it is provided so as to protrude upward from the bottom plate 22 and no gap is formed between the bottom plate 22, the lignite 6 and the dry lignite 7 can be reliably reversed upward, It is possible to prevent the lignite 6 and the dried lignite 7 from staying in the drying chamber 13.

  Further, since the fourth dividing wall 41 is provided at the boundary between the heating region 14 and the cooling region 15, the bubbling vapor 23 can be prevented from entering the cooling region 15, and the cooling air 25 can be prevented. Can be prevented from being mixed into the heating region 14, and the heating efficiency of the lignite 6 and the cooling efficiency of the dry lignite 7 can be prevented from decreasing.

  In the first embodiment, the inclined introducing portion 36 is provided with the first dividing member 58 to the third dividing member 60, and the inside of the inclined introducing portion 36 is divided into four charging portions 62 to 65. Although divided, it is needless to say that the number of section members provided in the inclined introduction portion 36 may be two or four or more.

  In the first embodiment, the rotating paddle 57 and the first dividing member 58 to the third dividing member 60 constitute a dispersing means for the lignite 6. However, the rotating paddle 57 is provided. Alternatively, only the first partition member 58 to the third partition member 60 may be used as the dispersing means.

  The first rotating paddle 71 is in contact with the side wall of the vertical portion 37 at a reference position, and the second rotating paddle 72 is at a predetermined angle from the side wall of the vertical portion 37, for example, the slope of the second rotating paddle 72. In this state, the lignite 6 that has slipped down is rotated in the counterclockwise direction by about −40 ° to + 40 °, which is an angle at which the lignite 6 is introduced into the first input portion 62. The first rotating paddle 71 and the second rotating paddle 72 are reciprocally rotated in synchronization with the clockwise direction and the counterclockwise direction within a predetermined angle range.

  When the lignite 6 is supplied from the lignite hopper 17, the first rotating paddle 71 and the second rotating paddle 72 rotate synchronously, thereby dispersing the lignite 6 in the width direction, and The first charging unit 62 to the fourth charging unit 65 can be distributed.

  For example, when the first rotating paddle 71 is at the reference position, the second rotating paddle 72 rotates counterclockwise as shown by the solid line in FIG. 62.

  From the above state, by rotating the first rotating paddle 71 and the second rotating paddle 72 synchronously in the clockwise direction, the lignite coal is inclined by the inclination of the first rotating paddle 71 and the second rotating paddle 72. 6 can be reliably guided to the second charging part 63 to the fourth charging part 65.

  Further, since no gap is formed between the upper ends of the first rotating paddle 71 and the second rotating paddle 72 and the side wall of the vertical portion 37, the lignite 6 can be guided reliably, and the dispersion efficiency of the lignite 6 can be improved. Can be further improved.

  In the third embodiment, two rotary paddles 71 and 72 are provided in the vertical portion 37 and the rotary paddles 71 and 72 are rotated synchronously. However, there are three rotary paddles provided in the vertical portion 37. There may be more than one, and each rotating paddle may be rotated individually.

  Next, a fourth embodiment of the present invention will be described with reference to FIG. 8 that are the same as those in FIG. 5 are given the same reference numerals, and descriptions thereof are omitted.

  In the fourth embodiment, the outer shape of the inclined introduction portion 36 has a trapezoidal shape with one side being vertical. A rotating paddle 75 is provided in the vertical portion 37. The rotary paddle 75 is rotatable via a rotation shaft 76 provided at the upper end of the vertical portion 37 side wall on the vertical side of the inclined introduction portion 36, and at the reference position, It contacts in parallel and is flush with the vertical side wall of the inclined introduction portion 36.

  Further, the rotary paddle 75 rotates in a clockwise direction and a counterclockwise direction within a range of a predetermined angle, for example, about 0 ° to + 40 ° from the reference position. In the fourth embodiment, the rotating paddle 75 and the first dividing member 58 to the third dividing member 60 constitute a means for dispersing the lignite 6.

  Also in the fourth embodiment, by rotating the rotating paddle 75, the lignite 6 is dispersed in the width direction by the inclination of the rotating paddle 75, and is shaken by the first charging unit 62 to the fourth charging unit 65. And can be dispersed over the entire length in the width direction of the lignite input port 35 (see FIG. 3).

  Further, since no gap is formed between the upper end of the rotating paddle 75 and the side wall of the vertical portion 37, the lignite 6 can be guided reliably, and the dispersion efficiency of the lignite 6 can be further improved.
