The waste gasification and melting furnace forms a packed bed of coke, which is a lumpy carbon material, and waste in the furnace body, and supplies high temperature air into the coke packed bed through the main tuyere and the sub-tuyere, The waste that is put into the melting furnace body is gasified and burned to melt the incombustibles. At this time, the upper part of the packed bed is in a fluid state.

高さでも、何段でもよい。A plurality of microwave transmitting / receiving antennas are provided facing each other on the side surface of the furnace body. The upper limit of the mounting position is desired to be the height at which the charge is considered to be highest (according to the lower part of the morning glory or below the morning glory), and the lower limit is below the secondary tuyere. The mounting position may be any height or any number of steps in the middle.

達位置を判別・測定する。Thus, the arrival position of the filling layer at the layer high level is determined and measured by continuously or periodically measuring the change in the transmission intensity of the microwave between the plurality of opposing antennas. .

信号処理により層高判断が明確にしかも安定的に行え
る。FIG. 2A shows an example of the measurement result. However, the signals are extremely variable, and it is difficult to determine the height of the bed if the signals remain as they are. Therefore, this signal is processed to display the level with the highest frequency distribution in (b). In this way, the signal processing enables clear and stable determination of the layer height.
【００１１】なお、マイクロウェ−ブの使用波長は、廃
棄物ガス化溶融炉に対して最適値があり、流動層上部に
ダストが滞留しているため、波長が短いとダストにより
信号が減衰され、伝播・透過信号の検出が困難となり、
測定できず、一方、波長が長すぎると、比較的密度の低
い流動層表面を透過し、やはり測定できない。The wavelength used by the microwave has an optimum value for the waste gasification and melting furnace, and dust is retained in the upper part of the fluidized bed. Therefore, if the wavelength is short, the signal is attenuated by the dust. , It becomes difficult to detect the propagation / transmission signal,
On the other hand, if the wavelength cannot be measured, on the other hand, if the wavelength is too long, the light passes through the surface of the fluidized bed having a relatively low density, and the measurement cannot be performed.
【００１２】又、波長が長い場合には、信号の送受信を
行うアンテナが大きくなり、設置が困難となる。そこ
で、ダスト中の伝播特性及びアンテナ形状の制限によ
り、１５〜２０ＧＨｚ（波長１５〜２０mm９）とするこ
とが望ましい。Further, if the wavelength is long, the antenna for transmitting and receiving signals becomes large, which makes installation difficult. Therefore, it is desirable to set the frequency to 15 to 20 GHz (wavelength 15 to 20 mm9) due to the propagation characteristics in dust and the shape of the antenna.
【００１３】なお、同様の測定は、レーザや超音波でも

音波ではガスの熱変動で振動が不安定となるので、マイ
クロウェ−ブが最も実用的である。The same measurement can be performed with a laser or an ultrasonic wave. However, the laser causes light scattering by dust, and the ultrasonic wave causes unstable vibration due to thermal fluctuations of the gas. Most practical.

把握できる。FIG. 3 shows the relationship between the frequency distribution of the measured signal, the signal strength and the state inside the furnace. (A) shows that the signal strength is high and the space is being measured. (B)
Indicates that the layer with weak signal intensity and high particle density is being measured. In the flow state, these two cases occur alternately, and the distribution (c) at the bottom is obtained. The step showing the distribution of FIG. 7C is defined as the layer height. As a result, the height of the bed can be stably controlled, and the flow state can be grasped by the distribution shape.

For example, when the distribution shown in FIG. 6C is displayed not only at the top but also in the middle, it can be determined that the flow has occurred up to the middle level. This can only be done by signal processing.

As a result of incorporating the method of the present invention from 12 hours after the start of operation, the operation which had been staggering because of relying on the temperature in the furnace until now Stable operation has become possible by charging so that the height is kept constant.
