ing, under conditions to insure the destroying, A
or the overcoming, of the agglutinating properties of the coal thus pretreated. ThereafterV this pretreated coal is mixed with raw or untreated coal and the two are then carbonized-preferably only partially carbonized--- to the extent desired as by any suitable distillation process.
According to a more specific-aspect of the invention the coal to be pretreated is sub jected to a pulveriz'ation and the pretreated product still remains in finely divided form after the pretreatment. .That portion of the raw coal which is not preheated is also preferably pulverized and this pulverized raw and untreated coal has. mixedwith it, or is mixed with, the pretreated pulverized products so that the two are intimately and relatively uniformly mixed and this mixture lis subjected to the desired vdegree of carbonizationl in any "suitable manner.
. An object of the mixing of the pretreated and untreated coal is to insure that the mixture during ca-rhonization will have only a limited amount, if any, of adhesive and co- Y hesive characteristics.
- The invention is particularly applicable to the treating of what is frequently referred to as bituminous coling coals 'or high volatile coals for example bituminous coals havinga volatile content of say 25% or even upwardly. According to certain more specific aspects of this invention it relates to a process according to which such a coal is pulverized anda portion of the pulverizedV coal is subjected to a heat pretreatment as in an oxidizing atmosphere having a temperature approximating 600 degrees F. to 650 degrees F. for a suit iicient length of time to slightly increase the oxygen content of the pretreated coal, for example from i1/2% up to 81/%, and thereafter the pretreated coal-is mixed with acertain=portion of the pulverized raw coal and the mixture is then subjected tol a low temperatur'e carbonization so coke.
Other aspects of the invention relate to apparatus for carrying out the process to which the invention applies.
As illustrating certain manners and ways in which the invention may be realized, reference is made to the accompanying dra constituting a part of this speciiieation and 1n which drawings Figure l showsone form of the, apparatus;v
and
Figure 2 shows a further form.
Referring to the drawings in detail and particularly to the apparatus of Figure 1, it will be observed 'that 1 indicates a means for pulverizing coal, frequently referred to as a.
pulverizing mill or as a pulverizing apparar tus. A cyclone separator'is designated by 2 and is arranged so as to receive pulverized coal which is transported to it by the piping 3 and the pressurei'an 4 in the piping. Some oi' the air used in the mill and in thetransport of the coal is returned to the pulverizing mill 1 from the cyclone separator 2 by the piping 5. An' escape or exit for any surplus air is provided as at 6. The pulverized coal which is separatedlout inthe cyclone separater passes to a receiving bin or hopper 7 and from this it is conveyed by any suitable feeding means 8 to a pretreating retort 9.
'llt will be noted that a preheater 10 is indicated for preheating airor in act any other suitable gaseous mediumwhich is caused to flow to the interior of the pretreating retort y9 as by means of the fan 11 through piping 12, 13 and 14. It will be furthermore noted that the air passing through the portion 13 1s indirectly heated in the preheater 10. The air or other preti-eating medium is introduced as to produce semiinto the pretreating retort 9 at temperatures approximating 800 degrees F.
In *the pretreating retort 9 the preheatedv gaseous medium,'preferably preheated air, travels upwardly counter to the downwardly moving pulver-ized material fed into the top of the pretreating retort 9 and the gaseous medium is ultimately withdrawn from the top of the pretreating retort through the piping 15 by means of the exhaust fan 16. In
the pretreating retort shown the upward movement of the hot treating gases is suiiicient to cause a delayed settling by gravitation of the coal particles passing downwardly therethrough so that a sufficient time element is insured for effecting the desired pretreating of the coal and so as to destroy o r insure the destroying of any adhesive or cohesive or agglutinating properties which it mightpossess. The pretreating may be carried out according to the process fully described in my copending application Serial No. 748,037 filed November 6, 1924, entitled Improvements in or relating to the treating of coal.
vThe pretreated coal settles and collects at the bottom of the pretreating'retort 9 and is conveyed therefrom to a carbonizing retort as 17 by any suitable mixing and conveying mechanism as 18 and feed hopper 19. The carbonizing retort 17 may be of any suitable type or construction, for example, it may be of a type such as that shown in the Smith Patent No. 1,415,201 dated May 9, 1922, or of that shown in the Cantieny Patent No. 1,495,57 3 dated May 27, 1924, or it may be of any other suitable type or construction. It will also be noted that a supply and feeding means is indicated at 20 by which a relatively predetermined amount of raw or untreated coal is fed into the mixing and conveying mechanism 18 under conditions such that the raw coal and pretreated coal can become relatively intimately and uniformly mixed prior to introduction into the carbonizing retort 17.
In this retort 17 the mixture is subjected to .any suitable carbonization, for example, any
low temperature carbonization wherein the general temperatures are suflicient to substantially reduce the hydro-carbon volatile content of the mixture. It will be manifest that this carbonizing retort 17 must have suitable feeding mechanisms and suitable discharge mechanisms, in short, suitable mechanisms whereby thematerial can be fed to the retort and whereby the resulting products both solid and gaseous can be removed from the retort as the process functions.
Reference will now be made to the apparatus of Figure 2 which functions in a very similar manner to that of Figure 1. Like reference characters indicate like parts and with like functions in each of the figures. It
A.so
will be noted that in Figure 2 there is pro vided a second means for pulverizing coal to wit a second pulverizing mill or pulverizing apparatus 21 and an associated cyclone.
In the instance of the carbonizing retort 23 the falling powdered coal is in fact a descending powdered coal mixture consisting of raw or untreated powdered coal and the coal Which'has been retreated merely to cause it to lose its agg utinating properties without losing any substantial portion of its hydrocarbon volatilev content and this mixture is caused or allowed to gravitate in cloud-like form through the carbonizing zone of retort 23 counter to rising hot gases which effect the carbonization in a relatively short time, to
Wit, in a period not exceeding 60 seconds.A
coal in the manner specified the tendency for the adhesion or cohesion of the articles undergoing treatment is materially essened. A specific mode of treating coal in either .forms of the apparatus above illustrated is as follows: Taking for example a raw coal having a hydrocarbon volatile content of 34% andan oxygen content of'71/2% and subjecting this to a pulverization and a preheating treatment, for'example, to a pretreatment by upwardly rising hot air in retort 9 at an average temperature of 600 degrees F.650
Ydegrees F.-temperaturevin airthis can be carried out so that the air will delay the precipitating of the particles of the pulverized coal suflicient to permit the destruction of any agglutinating properties of the coal and at the same time to sli htly increase the oxygen content of the coa for example, ap roximately 1% and so as to only slightly c ange the general state of division of the particles thus treated andso as to only slightly reduce the hydrocarbon volatile contentto witto approximately between 30% to 32%. The coal thus pretreated and preferably while still hot, is then mixed with or has mixed therewith the 'raw or untreated coal for example, pulverized raw or untreated coal-and thereafter the mixture is subjected to any suitable low temperature carbonization by which the volatile content of the mixture is substantially reduced so 'that the remxlting treatment has practically the same state ofdivision as the original pulverized coal, and so that the degree .of fineness is only slightly changed. While the de ree of coarseness of the pretreated product 1s slightly increased -as compared with the original pulverized coal, asis readily determinable by comparative screen ana-lysis, still the change in this regard is -not great.
In the pretreatment the temperatures for destroying the agglutinating properties are preferably between 500 degrees F. and 700 degrees F. during atime when the coal is in pulverized form and while it is gravitating,
counter to rising hot gases for a period of' not more than sixty seconds.
From what has preceeded, it will'be noted (a) that the pretreatment produces a product, or perhaps an intermediate product, in which the agglutinating roperties have been substantially destroye ,in other words, there has been produced a product practically void of agglutinating characteristics, (b) that thisl product is mixed with the raw ulverized coal in such a manner that the mixture has at the most only limited agglutinating properties, and (c) that this mixture is subjected to the carbonization or distillation described, for example, to a carbonization or distillation such as is employed for the low temperature product of semi-coke. When the mixture is made up of pretreated pulverized coal andraw pulverized coal and is allowed to gravitate counter to rising hot carbonizing gases then the carbonizing process should be completed by the direct action of gases having approximate average temperatures of 1000 degrees F. and durlng a period of not over sixty seconds. l
It will also be manifest from what has preceded that the invention as expressed in the claims may be realized in various modes and types of apparatus without departing from t e spirit and scope thereof. l
