It is related with the carbide | carbonized_material storage conveyance apparatus and method which can be utilized as.

In general, biomass refers to an organism that can be used as an energy source or an industrial raw material, and various methods for effectively using biomass have been proposed. As one of them, in thermal power generation facilities, there is an expectation for a method of co-firing wood biomass as an alternative fuel with coal, and electric utilities are also actively investigating.
For example, Patent Document 1 (Japanese Patent Laid-Open No. 2004-78387) proposes a manufacturing process in which carbide is manufactured from waste wood and used as blast furnace fuel. According to Patent Document 1, after removing foreign matter from waste wood, it is put into a carbonization furnace to be converted into carbide, cooled and stored, and then the carbide is transported to the blast furnace as wood carbide powder as a raw material blown into the blast furnace.

  Thus, carbide can be manufactured from biomass and the carbide can be used as fuel. As a transport method for using this carbide as a fuel, Patent Document 2 (Japanese Patent Laid-Open No. 2003-236406) discloses a water-cooled screw conveyor provided downstream of the carbonization furnace to cool the carbide, and an inert gas.

However, the manufacturing process disclosed in Patent Document 1 employs a method in which carbide is cooled and stored and transported and blown into a blast furnace as wood carbide particles. A detailed description of the method has not been disclosed. Further, since the carbide is cooled by the cooler immediately after being discharged from the carbonization furnace, only the carbide surface may be cooled, and the cooling effect is weak.
In addition, the carbide has a problem that it is likely to spontaneously ignite in the process of being transported as fuel. In the invention disclosed in Patent Document 3, there is a possibility that the carbide is not cooled to the center of the carbide that is not exposed on the surface. There is a possibility that the carbide pulverized before being put into the charcoal hopper is spontaneously ignited by the charcoal hopper. Further, in the inventions disclosed in Patent Document 2 and Patent Document 4, the cooling is similarly insufficient, and there is a possibility of ignition in the conveyance process. In addition, none of Patent Document 2, Patent Document 3, and Patent Document 4 discloses a process for finely pulverizing a carbide and using it as pulverized coal.
Accordingly, the present invention has been made in view of the above-mentioned problems of the prior art, and it is an object of the present invention to provide a carbide storing and conveying apparatus and method that can convey a charcoal of woody biomass without igniting it, and can use the carbide as pulverized coal.
