The present invention relates to a wet gas purification system, and more particularly to a wet gas purification system for hot gas that can purify the gas simultaneously with the cooling of the hot gas using a cooling tower and a heat exchanger.

Emissions from incinerators that burn municipal and industrial wastes in cities include hazardous materials such as dust, acid gases (HCL, SOx, NOx, HF, etc.), heavy metals (Hg, Cd, Pb, As, Zn, etc.) and dioxins. Contains substance. In addition, the exhaust gas discharged during the drying of food waste or harmful substances also contains a large amount of dust or harmful gas and fine dust and gas generating odor. In particular, the exhaust gases generated during the drying of food residues or harmful substances contain volatile organic carbons (VOCs), which cause photochemical reactions to generate smog and cause odors.

As a method of treating the harmful exhaust gas as described above, by spraying alkaline solution to the exhaust gas to remove the dust or neutralized by wet treatment, and then discharged after removing the moisture after incineration in the deodorizing furnace, or neutralized by supplying the lime lime slurry semi-dry It is known to remove dust and discharge dust by passing it through a bag filter after treatment. In addition, in order to remove VOCs and prevent odors and white smoke, a facility for burning VOCs using a catalyst may be separately installed at the rear of the purification apparatus.

On the other hand, the inventor of the present invention has a patent application to the Republic of Korea Patent Application No. 10-2004-0093768, the name of the 'hybrid-type exhaust gas purification apparatus' in the specification of the wet purifying acidic exhaust gas containing dust Later, a method and a device for treating by passing through the bag filter have been proposed (hereinafter, a method of treating the exhaust gas through a bag filter after directly purifying the exhaust gas is called a 'hybrid discharge gas treatment method'). . In addition, the inventor of the present invention, the patent of the invention patent application No. 10-2005-26074 in the Republic of Korea, the specification of the 'exhaust gas wet purifier' in the specification of the removal efficiency of dust, mist, water, condensate, etc. from the exhaust gas A wet purifier is proposed that can be increased and prevent the generation of waste water and the blockage of injection nozzles in the purge chamber.

Meanwhile, in order to purify the gas by introducing the hot gas into the wet purification facility, the gas must first be cooled. Regarding the system for cooling the hot gas, the following cooling method is used.

The air dilution method is the simplest cooling method, which dilutes a certain temperature and volume of gas with air and cools it to a low temperature suitable for prevention facility connection. When designing such a facility, first, determine the amount of air and temperature required to transport contaminated air from the proposed pollutant source, and then estimate the amount of additional air required to cool this temperature. This method is used in the case of installing an external hood to collect pollutants, and the capacity of the prevention facility should be designed to be much larger than the amount of gas discharged since the external air is diluted.

Next, there is a cooling method by direct contact evaporation of water. If a large amount of hot gas has to be cooled and a small amount of air is added, a method other than air dilution should be adopted. Water evaporation requires a large amount of heat, so spraying and evaporating a small amount of water into the gas can easily cool the gas. This cooling method usually designs the temperature of the exhaust gas after cooling to 100 ° C or higher.

Next, there is a cooling method by natural convection and radiation. When hot gas passes through the duct, the duct is heated and the surrounding air is also heated. When the surrounding air is heated, natural ventilation occurs to dissipate heat around the duct. This phenomenon is called natural convection. In addition, heat is radiated to the surrounding area by radiant heat in the high temperature duct, and this method requires a lot of installation area and pressure loss due to a long duct.

Next, there is a forced air cooling method by air cooling. Hot gas is a method of installing a blower outside the duct to force the outside air around the duct by contact with the duct for cooling, this method requires a long duct and a separate cooling blower is required.

Finally, there is a forced cooling method by water cooling. By making a double pipe through which hot gas can pass water outside the duct, the water is circulated in the double pipe by a pump and cooled. Another method is to cool the air with water like the boiler cooling method.

In the case of the system used for the purification of hot gas, it is necessary to lower the temperature of the hot gas to 70 ° C. or lower in order to maintain the circulation pump performance for circulating the cooling water or the cleaning liquid and to increase the solubility of the harmful substances contained in the gas in the cleaning liquid. have. Conventionally, in order to cool a hot gas before putting a hot gas into a purification | cleaning apparatus, the separate cooling apparatus for cooling a hot gas in the front of a purification apparatus is provided and used. The separate cooling device is expensive to cool the gas to a desired temperature, and there is a problem in that a large size of the facility takes up a lot of space.

It is an object of the present invention to provide an inexpensive and compact wet purge system for hot gas that can simultaneously purify hot gas to a desired temperature. That is, an object of the present invention is to provide an inexpensive wet purification system for high temperature gas that can simultaneously purify the harmful gases at high temperature without installing a separate heat exchanger for cooling the high temperature gas in front of the wet purification apparatus. It is.

According to the present invention, by spraying a large amount of the cleaning liquid to the wet purifier, the temperature of the harmful gas is drastically lowered by the injected cleaning liquid to increase the solubility of the cleaning solution of the contaminants contained in the harmful gas. As the cleaning liquid is continuously returned and used, the temperature of the cleaning liquid is effectively cooled by an indirect cooling method using a heat exchanger and cooling water. Therefore, it is possible to maintain the temperature of the circulating cleaning liquid at an appropriate temperature to maximize the cleaning effect, it is possible to stably use the cleaning liquid circulation pump.

In the case of the wet purifying system for hot gas according to the present invention, high temperature harmful gas can be cooled and gas-purified at low cost without installing a separate heat exchanger for cooling the hot gas in front of the wet purifying facility.
