2. Description of the Related Art Garbage discharged from urban areas can be roughly classified into raw garbage, combustible garbage, non-combustible garbage, etc., and it is becoming more common to dispose of such garbage separately for processing. Garbage and combustible waste are often transported to a refuse incineration plant for incineration, and a boiler is boiled by the combustion of this incinerator, and a steam turbine is rotated by steam generated from the boiler to drive a generator. Here, the generated steam temperature is 3 because the high temperature corrosion of the boiler heat exchange part is a concern.
The electric power generated is limited to less than 00 ° C and is small.
This electric power is used not only for the operation of the refuse incineration plant itself, but recently, a rest facility is established near the plant, and the power generated by the waste incineration plant is often supplied to this rest facility. Is becoming In that case, the hot water boiled by the boiler will be supplied to the rest facility and used for hot water supply at the bathhouse.

On the other hand, sewage in urban areas is collected in a sewage treatment plant, purified in a sewage treatment tank and discharged into a river or the sea.

We collect combustible waste that is discharged, burn this combustible waste in a waste incineration boiler to generate steam, and install a waste incineration and power generation plant that drives a generator by rotating a steam turbine. A gas turbine is installed in the gas turbine, and the digested gas generated in the digested gas generation plant is used as a driving fuel for the gas turbine, and the combustion exhaust gas of the gas turbine is incinerated by a refuse incineration boiler. An energy recycling device characterized in that the steam from the refuse incineration boiler is converted into superheated steam by being led to a superheater provided outside the steam turbine, and the steam turbine is driven by the superheated steam. Is.

[Function] In the digestion gas generation plant, the sludge collected from the sewage treatment plant is concentrated and put into the digestion tank together with the garbage in the storage tank. Digestion gas is generated in the digestion tank by the fermentation action, and this digestion gas is sent to the refuse incineration and power generation plant. In a refuse incineration and power generation plant, a gas turbine is driven by using the digested gas as fuel, and high temperature combustion exhaust gas is led to a superheater. The superheater converts steam from the boiler to superheated steam and drives a steam turbine. Further, a generator is connected to each of the gas turbine and the steam turbine to generate a large amount of electric power.

On the other hand, the desalinated water desalinated in the seawater desalination plant is used for water supply equipment such as an apartment house through a pipeline. In addition, the electricity generated by the refuse incineration and power generation plants is transmitted to the urban area through distribution lines. FIG. 3 shows a digestion gas generation plant in which raw garbage discharged from the urban area is collected, sorted and crushed, and stored in the storage tank 11 to be changed into jelly. Of the sludge collected at the sewage treatment plant, the first settling sludge is concentrated in the circular radial flow type thickening tank 12, and the surplus sludge at the final settling is removed by a sludge screen 13 to remove foreign matters, and then a horizontal screw conveyor type sludge is used. It concentrates with the concentrator 14 of.

The concentrated sludge is put into the primary digestion tank 15 together with the jelly-like food waste stored in the storage tank. In the primary digestion tank 15, the fed sludge and the like are fermented while being stirred by the stirring pump 16 to generate digestive gas such as methane.

Reference numeral 18 is a stirring blower, which injects a compressed gas to the inner bottom portion of the primary digestion tank 15 and promotes digestion of sludge by the upward flow of the injection gas.

The digestion gas generated in the primary digestion tank 15 is stored in the gas tank 19 and supplied to the gas turbine of the refuse incineration and power generation plant described later. In addition, the sludge that generated digestion gas in the primary digestion tank 15 is the secondary digestion tank 2

Sent to. Then, the treated sewage (3
(0 to 40 ° C.) is returned to the sewage treatment water tank 24. Then, in the sewage treatment tank, the river water is taken in and the purified sewage treatment water is discharged to the river or the sea.

FIG. 5 shows a refuse incineration and power plant,
Combustible waste discharged from urban areas is collected, and the combustible waste is burned in the waste incineration boiler 25 together with the dehydrated cake produced in the digestion gas generation plant. The steam generated in the refuse incineration boiler 25 is once again superheated by the superheater 26, and then is discharged to the steam reservoir 27. On the other hand, the digestion gas generated in the digestion gas generation plant is used as the driving fuel for the gas turbine 28, and when the gas turbine 28 is driven, the generator 29 rotates to generate electricity. The temperature of the combustion exhaust gas of the gas turbine 28 is as high as about 500 to 550 ° C.,
If this combustion exhaust gas is passed into the superheater 26,
The temperature of the steam generated in the refuse incineration boiler 25 becomes superheated steam (about 400 ° C.) and is discharged to the steam reservoir 27.

Therefore, since the steam turbine 30 is driven by the superheated steam of extremely high temperature, the thermal efficiency of the steam turbine 30 is significantly improved. The generator 31 rotates by driving the steam turbine 30 to generate electric power, and the electric power generated by the solar power generation device 32 and the electric power generated by the gas turbine 28 are transmitted to each of the other plants, part of which is transmitted. Electric power is supplied to each facility in the refuse incineration and power plant.

A condenser 33 is provided at the subsequent stage of the steam turbine 30 to return the sewage treatment water of the sewage treatment plant to cool the condenser 33. For this reason, the steam pressure in the condenser 33 is rapidly reduced, returning to water and returning to the condensate tank 34.
And 35, the pressure difference between the inlet and the outlet of the steam turbine 30 becomes large and the thermal efficiency increases. And
The absorption refrigerator 36 is operated by the steam extracted from the steam turbine 30, cold water (about 12 ° C.) is introduced from the heat storage tank of the heat supply plant, and the absorption refrigerator 36 cools cold water (about 7 to
8 ° C) is produced and led to the heat pump of the heat supply plant.
Further, the excess extracted steam in the steam turbine 30 is led to the boiler of the heat supply plant.

The combustion exhaust gas of the gas turbine 28 passes through the superheater 26 to generate steam in the exhaust gas boiler 37, and the steam and the steam generated in the refuse incineration boiler 25 join together. Further, the combustion exhaust gas is used as the exhaust gas heat exchanger 3
The water in the condensate tank 34 is heated and then discharged to the outside. The hot water heated in the exhaust gas heat exchanger 38 is sent to the deaerator 39 together with the hot water extracted from the steam turbine, and from there, sent to the refuse incineration boiler 25 and the exhaust gas boiler 37 to be converted into steam again.

(.Degree. C.) is introduced as an endothermic source of the heat pumps 40 and 41, and the sewage treated water after the heat exchange treatment is returned to the sewage treatment tank 24 of the sewage treatment plant as an exhaust heat source. When the heat pump 40 is driven, the refrigerant goes back and forth to the direct expansion coil 45 in the ice tank 44a of the heat storage tank 44, and the water in the ice tank 44a becomes ice water. Heat pump 4
Although the exhaust heat of 0 is performed by the heat exchanger 42, it is also exhausted to the circulating water from the heat source water tank 44c of the heat storage tank 44.

When the heat pump 41 is driven, the cold water (7 to 8 ° C.) sent from the absorption chiller 36 of the refuse incineration and power generation plant is led to the evaporator of the heat pump 41 for further cooling. The cold water is returned to the cold water tank 44b of the heat storage tank 44 and is also returned to the heat source water tank 44c. Cold water tank 4

By repeating the above process, low-temperature cold water is generated stepwise, and the temperature in the cold water tank 44b is stabilized at about 4 to 12 ° C. The heat of the heat pump 41 is exhausted by the heat exchanger 43, but is also exhausted to the circulating water from the hot water tank 44d of the heat storage tank 44.

On the other hand, the excess extracted steam in the steam turbine 30 of the refuse incineration and power generation plant is introduced into the boiler 46 of the heat supply plant, and the extracted steam is exchanged with the heat exchanger 47.
Is changed to hot water, and the hot water is stored in the hot water tank 44d of the heat storage tank 44. Therefore, in combination with the circulating water from the heat pump 41 described above, the temperature in the hot water tank 44d is stabilized at about 45 to 50 ° C. Further, hot water is also supplied from the heat exchanger 47 to the heat source water tank 44c, and this hot water is mixed with the circulating water of the heat pump 40 and the cold water from the heat pump 41 to form the heat source water tank 44c.
