[0003] As one of effective methods for removing toxic substances contained in exhaust gas, a combustion decomposition method is known. That is, this method is a method in which toxic exhaust gas is reacted with air and burned, and then a product (a single element or a solid substance of an oxide) is treated with a scrubber, a bag filter, or the like. However,
In the special material gas, bubbles with the surface wrapped in silicon dioxide like silane are generated, and when the bubbles rupture, they react violently and explosively with oxygen, or the allowable concentration is extremely low like arsine (0.05 ppm), etc., and several kinds of special material gas components are often mixed and emitted. Therefore, the special material gas components are burned and decomposed to such an extent that the exhaust gas can be released to the atmosphere as it is. It is very difficult to do.

In the present invention, first, in a mixing step, a reaction promoting gas in an amount necessary for decomposing a flammable gas component in the toxic exhaust gas is mixed with the toxic exhaust gas. The reaction promoting gas is a combustible gas that undergoes an oxidation reaction with a combustible gas component such as nitrogen trifluoride, and includes, for example, hydrogen, methane, ethane, propane, and butane. Hydrogen is most preferred in the sense of avoidance. In this case, the mixing ratio of both gases is in the range of 1 to 100 parts by volume of the reaction promoting gas to 1 part of the supporting gas in the exhaust gas. When the supporting gas is nitrogen trifluoride, the volume ratio is preferably 5 to 30 parts by volume of hydrogen per 1 part of nitrogen trifluoride.

Mixing can be performed at an introduction angle of 0 to 180 degrees in seconds. The shape of the mixing section is not particularly limited as long as mixing can be easily performed, and an arbitrary shape such as a cylindrical shape can be adopted. Naturally, the mixing section is provided with a toxic exhaust gas introduction pipe and a reaction promoting gas introduction pipe, and is constituted by a device having an open connection port (mixed gas discharge port) with the combustion section.

Toxic exhaust gas / reaction promoting gas mixture (hereinafter simply referred to as mixed gas) mixed in the mixing step (mixing section)
Is then sent to the combustion process (burning section). The combustion step is a step in which the mixed gas is introduced into a combustion furnace having a heating unit to burn and decompose the combustible special material gas component. In this step, a process similar to the process of burning and decomposing exhaust gas containing a normal combustible special material gas such as silane is performed. That is, the only difference is that the mixed gas is introduced instead of the exhaust gas as compared with the normal exhaust gas combustion method. Therefore, the combustion section is composed of a device provided with an open connection port (mixed gas introduction port) with the mixing section, an auxiliary gas introduction port, an ignition means, and a combustion gas discharge port.

As described above, in the combustion step, the same combustion operation as that for the exhaust gas containing the flammable special material gas such as silane is performed except that the mixed gas is introduced as the raw material gas. Since the combustion supporting special material gas is more difficult to completely burn than the combustible special material gas, it is very preferable to employ a combustion method for improving the combustion efficiency.

The exhaust gas introduced in a laminar flow from the introduction pipe 13 and the reaction promoting gas introduced from the introduction pipe 14 flow in the mixing section 1 in a laminar flow, and are further guided to the combustion zone 3. On the other hand, when the high-speed combustible gas flow flowing in the combustible gas flow zone 4 reaches the connection port 7, the gas flow encounters the low-speed mixed gas in the combustion zone 3. Therefore, a part of the combustible gas enters the connection port 7, collides with the side wall of the combustion zone portion 3 at the point 16, and flows in a centrifugal spiral shape in the direction of the arrow 17.
