Therefore, '"cold gas", "cold dilution gas", "dilution gas", "cooling gas" or "cold bell dilution gas" may be an air stream having a lower temperature than the exhaust gas to be cooled. Or it may be a low temperature, C〇2, Ηζ〇, 〇2' or other gas, or a mixture thereof. The exhaust gas stream from a fuel-fired glass melting furnace may include, in particular: (common components of helium gas, such as helium 2, N 2 , c 2 , H 2 helium; (Η) nitrogen oxides (N〇2, NO and the like) a collection of N0x); (Hi) a volatile component of a glass material in a gas phase state, such as B2〇3, Sn〇2, p2〇5, and the like; (iv) solid particles of molten glass; and (v) rushing Solid particles of various ingredients in the furnace, such as helium, aluminum, and the like. Therefore, the exhaust gas stream typically requires a pollution mitigation step before it can be safely discharged to the atmosphere. This pollution reduction may include, but is not limited to, : reduction in enthalpy, collection of fine dust particles, and the like. Exhaust tubes or conduits are typically utilized to vent the exhaust gases to the remote pollution mitigation equipment. A typical problem observed in this exhaust vent is The accumulation of fine dust particles on the inner wall surface and the condensation of volatile components can cause clogging and reduce the efficiency and effect of discharge after a period of time, and finally, if the blockage cannot be removed during normal operation of the furnace, the program must be closed. The new exhaust gas leaving a fuel-fired glass melting furnace is typically at a very high temperature, typically greater than 1 〇〇〇 < t, for example up to about 1500 c » in the exhaust gas entering a substantially long section of the exhaust pipe Previously, the cold section was ideally designed to reduce tube material and maintenance costs. This 201107259 cooling system is typically made by introducing a lower temperature cooling gas into the exhaust gas stream. Referring to Figure 1 An exhaust gas discharge tank 101 of an embodiment of the present invention. The discharge tank 1〇1 includes an exhaust gas inlet pipe 1〇3 having a flange 102 at an end thereof for connection with an exhaust gas source for introducing exhaust gas. Gas stream 133. Exhaust gas stream 133 is confined to the inner wall 104 of the inlet tube. In certain particular advantageous embodiments, the exhaust gas inlet tube 103 is substantially horizontal, which allows the exhaust gas stream 133 to be substantially perpendicular to gravity Direction of travel. This arrangement reduces the amount of particles collected in the inlet pipe and the likelihood of blockage in this section. Some or all of the inlet pipe may take other directions to accommodate the design of a particular furnace and Geometric requirements are also possible. As mentioned above, for a fuel-fired glass melting furnace, when a new exhaust gas stream 133 enters the inlet pipe 1〇3, it is at a very high temperature. Therefore, it is used to manufacture the inlet pipe. The material of 103 should preferably have the ability to withstand this high temperature. Among the materials, 'high temperature oxidation resistant stainless steel is a good material choice for the inlet tube 1〇3. In addition, as shown in Figure 1, the inlet tube can be borrowed Cooled by a cooling gas stream 147 that is directed through a cooling gas inlet tube 144 into a jacket 143 that is defined by an outer jacket wall 145 surrounding the exhaust gas inlet tube 103. As shown in Figure 1, Cooling gas stream 147 is introduced into exhaust gas stream 133 through at least one aperture 149 in wall 124 of the intermediate portion of the primary exhaust tube (described in more detail below). As shown in Fig. 1, the position of the aperture 149 is selected such that the cooling airflow 147 is not directly introduced into the inlet to avoid the mixing and cooling of the hot exhaust gas 133 in the inlet pipe 1〇3 201107259, which can cause the inlet pipe ι Condensation and blockage in 〇3. In other embodiments, it is possible to allow the cooling gas stream 147 to exit the jacket 143 into the surrounding atmosphere without entering the exhaust gas stream 133. One of the primary functions of the cooling gas stream 147 is to lower the temperature of the inlet tube 103 to extend the life of the inlet tube. In an advantageous embodiment, the 'cooling gas jacket (4) may include one or more vanes or dividing walls that will be inside the jacket. The P-work is divided into a tortuous path to allow the cooling airflow to pass, allowing the inlet pipe 103 to be cooled more efficiently. The exhaust gas discharge tank 101 further comprises a main discharge pipe comprising three sections: an upper part 105, an intermediate part 1〇7 and a lower part as shown in Fig. i, the three parts are substantially upright And the same pumping (ie, the three-axis shafts are parallel to each other) and perpendicular to the inlet tube 1〇3'. However, the two portions may be oriented in different directions, that is, the axes may be sandwiched to each other to form a non- Zero angles, and the axes can exhibit an acute or obtuse angle to the axis of the inlet tube (8). For example, the lower part (10) can pass through a tube from 0. To 90. The angle is connected to the middle portion 1〇7, for example, in the middle two, 45<>, 6〇. And similar. $, regardless of the direction of the relative/part of the lower part, the lower part is placed so that the solid particles and the lower U are ideally located in the lower part (especially in the lower part of the wound). The shaft can be placed substantially upright. The lower part of the system is connected to the exhaust gas stream tube and the intermediate portion of the exhaust gas stream 133 and the cooling air stream 147. A side port 127 is mounted to the side wall 124 of the intervening portion 13 201107259 107, on the opposite or adjacent to the inlet tube 103. In one embodiment, the side port includes a window through which the intermediate portion 107 and the inlet tube 103 are viewed. In another embodiment, the side port m includes a door' that can be accessed through the door and serviced (e.g., cleaned up by dust particles) and an inlet tube. Below the intermediate portion, fixed to the intermediate portion and in fluid communication with the intermediate portion is a lower portion 109' which includes a lower cooling gas introduction plenum 119 and a plurality of lower cooling gas introduction holes. A wall 120 of 117. The cooling gas introduction holes m shown in Fig. 1 are substantially circular and substantially the same height on the wall surface 12A. However, 'in other embodiments' the cooling gas introduction bore 7 may take other geometries (eg, the shape of the slits, and may be at different heights) as long as the cooling gas stream 134 may be at a sufficient flow rate and in the desired direction. The lower portion 109 can be introduced. For example, the cooling gas introduction hole 17 can be a staggered slit provided in the plenum 119. A lower cooling airflow is# can enter the plenum n9 through the lower cooling gas inlet 121. Once the lower cooling air stream enters the lower portion 109, it immediately forms an air flow 135 that travels upward. In an upstream position, the lower cooling gas stream 135 combines with the exhaust gas stream 133 and the exhaust gas inlet tube cooling gas stream 147 to form a larger gas stream 137 that travels up to the upper portion 1〇5 of the discharge tank. As shown in Fig. j, the lower portion 1 〇 9 further includes a conical portion 123 below the cooling gas introduction port 7 and the lower gas introduction plenum 119, which terminates at the lower port 115. In one embodiment, the lower port 115 includes a slidable disk for collecting fine dust particles (not shown, therefore, during normal operation of the furnace C. 14 201107259 and the discharge tank, the disk can be accelerated as a collection from the main discharge pipe The fine dust particles; or during maintenance, collect the precipitated particles removed from the inlet pipe 103 and the inner wall of the main discharge pipe. In another embodiment, the lower port 115 includes a door through which the upright pipe can be serviced. As shown, the upper portion 1〇5 includes a second surface 129 having a plurality of upper cooling gas introduction holes 1 1 1 disposed in an upper cooling gas introduction plenum 113. The upper cooling air flow 138 enters the plenum through the one side inlet 115. 113, in combination with gas stream 137 to form a larger gas stream 139' and further advanced by a lower pressure I" drive established by, for example, a downstream pump or fan. As shown, the upper portion includes an upstream , having a decreasing diameter and a flange 丨 3 丨 suitable for connection with the downstream gas line. In other embodiments, the upstream section may have a substantially cylindrical shape. According to a second embodiment of the present disclosure, an exhaust gas discharge tank 201 is schematically illustrated, which includes an exhaust gas inlet pipe 1〇3 surrounded by a cooling gas loss sleeve 143 substantially the same as the embodiment of the first embodiment. The discharge phase also includes an upper portion 205 '-the intermediate portion 2〇7 and the lower portion 2〇" which are substantially the same as the upper portion of the embodiment of Fig. i, the discharge box 201 and the discharge box The main difference between 101 is the lower part and the middle of the bruise. As shown in Fig. 2, the lower part 2〇9 includes a wall 丨2〇, which does not have a lower cooling gas introduction hole or a lower cooling gas introduction inflation Instead, most of the wall 12 of the lower portion 2〇9 and the wall 124 of the intermediate portion 207 are surrounded by a cooling gas jacket 219, wherein the wall is not connected by the inlet tube 1〇3 and the side 15 201107259 A cooling airflow 234 is introduced into the jacket 219 through an inlet 221, travels upward, and enters the main discharge pipe through a hole 23 5 in the wall surface 124. Similar to the cooling of the exhaust gas inlet pipe 1 〇3 The gas jacket 丨43, the cooling gas jacket 2 19 may include Or a plurality of blades or partition walls (not shown), and dividing the inner space of the jacket into a meandering passage for passing the cooling gas to achieve a high cooling efficiency. The main function of the cooling gas 234 is to maintain the main discharge pipe. a lower temperature of the lower portion and the intermediate portion to reduce oxidation and thus reduce maintenance requirements. As shown in the two embodiments of Figures 1 and 2, heat directly in the inlet 103 can be substantially avoided. The exhaust gas stream I] is mixed with a cooling gas stream such as us and 138. This arrangement maintains a relatively high temperature in the inlet tube' thus reducing condensation, such as condensate, condensate, and condensate. Deposition of other solids. The mixing with the cooling gas and the reduction of the temperature of the exhaust gas stream allow the condensate and the falling fine dust particles in the main discharge pipe to be collected and removed through the side port 127 and the slidable disk in the lower portion. A second aspect of the present disclosure is directed to a procedure for melting a glass material by using a glass melting furnace comprising an exhaust gas discharge device as described herein. Due to the enhanced airflow pattern that is designed and associated with a reduced tendency to block, the exhaust gas exhaust tank of the present disclosure is particularly advantageous for use with a gas-fired glass melting tank for melting including volatilization An elevated level of material of the composition, such as B2〇3, Sn〇2, and/or pa5 that are prone to agglomeration and cause blockage. As described above in connection with the description of the discharge device, this procedure can be beneficial for glass melt processing, resulting in a waste gas emission of at least 1000 ° C, even up to about 1500 ° C, and even higher. This procedure has a temperature at the end of the discharge device that reduces the exhaust gas flow to below 8 °C before entering a normal conduit containing components that can be damaged by temperatures above 600 °C (eg, 700 ° C) The ability to lower 'or lower than 600 ° C). It will be apparent to those skilled in the art that various modifications and changes can be made without departing from the scope and spirit of the invention. Therefore, the present invention is intended to cover such modifications and alternatives BRIEF DESCRIPTION OF THE DRAWINGS In the accompanying drawings: Fig. 1 is a schematic illustration of an exhaust gas discharge tank according to an embodiment of the present disclosure.
