Description
Sept. 11, 1934. A. FISHER APPARATUS FOR COKING SOLID CARBONIZLABLE MATERIALS Filed Nov. 24, 1930 Patented Sept. 1l, 1934 APPARATUS FOR COKING SOLID CARBONIZABLE MATERIALS Alfred Fisher, Chicago,
'I1l., assgnor to Universal Oil Products Company, Chicago, Ill., a corporation of South Dakota Application November 24, 1930, Serial No. 497,759
s claims. `(C1. 20a-118)- This invention relates to the treatment of carbonaceous materials and refers particularly to an improved apparatus for the devolatilization and coking of carbonaceous materials.
The features of the present invention render it particularly applicable for the treatment of carbonaceous materials such as mixtures of coal and petroleum coke. The invention is adaptable to the treatment of either of these materials alone,
or to the treatment of any other suitable carbonaceous material. The invention is not limited to the treatment of any one or any particular group of materials or to any exact conditions of treatment but is directed rather to an improved method and means of subjecting any suitable material to any conditions of treatment permitted by an apparatus embodying the featureshereinafter described.
The utility, objects and advantages of my invention will be apparent from the accompanying diagrammatic drawing and following detail description.
In the drawing, Fig. 1 is a sectional elevational view of a device comprising one embodiment of my invention.
Fig. 2 is a transverse sectional view of the retort and shaft.
Fig. 3 is a transverse sectional view of a slightly modified form of shaft.
Fig. 4 is a fragmentary side elevational view of the shaft shown in Fig. 3.
Retort 1 is substantially horizontally disposed within furnace 2, being slightly inclined toward the discharge end 3 of the retort to permit conf tinuous travel of the material undergoing treatment through the retort as the latter is rotated by any suitable means such as an electric motor or other suitable mover, not shown, through variable speed reducer 4 and gears 5. The inlet end 6 and the discharge end 3 of the retort are prefer.-
l ably held stationary by the brackets 6' and 3 but the central portion 7 of the retort, passing through furnace 2 may be rotated at any desiredspeed. Material to be treated may be introduced to the stationary inlet enr.' 6 of the retort through screw conveyor 8, having supply port 9 and dis-` charge port l0. The screw or helical conveyor 11 may be driven at any desired rate through speed reducer 12 by means of an electric motor or other prime mover, not shown. A seal may be maintained upon the inlet end of the retort to prevent escape of gases or ingress of air to the zone of treatment by means of the material retainedin conveyor 8 as it passes through said conveyor tothe retort. Similarly a seal may be maintained at the discharge end of the retort by means of a similar'conveyor 13 which retains a body of solid carbonized material discharged from retort 1. Vapors evolved by the treatment of carbonaceous material may be removed through port 14 at the discharge end 3 of the retort and liquid seals may be provided within suitable condensing, cooling and collecting equipment, not shown, through which the vapors may pass after they are released through port 14.
As a feature of the invention the breaker blade shaft 15 may preferably be mountedeccentric with respect to the rotatable portion 7 of the retort and preferably the shaft is mounted so that 'the minimum clearance between the breaker blades and the inside surface of the rotatable shell 7 is adjacent the hottest portion of the heated shell, in this case its lower surface. These features are more clearly illustrated in Fig. 2 of the drawing.
Another feature of the invention provides for the use of slightly shorter breaker blades at substantiallythe mid-section of shaft 15 or blades of graduated and progressively shorter length from each end toward the center of the shaft, thus providing a. means for compensating for the deflection in shaft 15 and maintaining a substantially uniform clearance between the breaker blades and the bottom of shell 7.
Anyof the well known methods of joining` metals may be employed to fastenbreaker blades f ample,

vbolted or otherwise attached, Figs. 3 and 4 of vbreaker blades.
18 to shaft 15; lfor example, they may be welded or may be riveted or bolted to the shaft by means as illustrated in Fig. 2 of the drawing. However, as a special feature of the invention, the shaft 15 may have longitudinal stiifening or strengthening 'ribs 20 to minimize or prevent deflection of the shaft and thus avoid any lateral deflection thereof, and said ribs may serve as members to which breaker blades 18 are as illustrated in the drawing. It will be understood, of course, that the reinforcing ribs 20 may be straight or helical in form and may or may not be utilized f as a means of attaching the As a feature of the invention, shaft 15 may be hollow and anysuitable cooling medium may be circulated through the hollow portion provided to cool the shaft and prevent excessive expansion and deflection 'of this member. In oase the shaft is not cooled in this manner, it is preferably constructed of suitable metals or metallic alloys capable of withstanding high temperatures without distortionl or weakening such as, for ex- .tungsten, niekel-chromium-steel, silichrome-steel, chrom-iron or the like, and in such cases the shaft preferably assumesA the form illustrated in Figs. 3 and 4. However, when the entire breaker blade shaft is not cooled, it is ordinarily desirablev to cool at least that e portion of the shaft adiacentj to bearings 19 for obvious reasons, and as a feature of the invention hollow bearing ends 22, separated from the remainder of the hollow shaft in any suitable manner, are provided and vwater may be used may be cooled by circulating fluid through these portions of the shaft only. In this casel the remainder of the hollow shaft is vented to prevent excessive pressure within the shaft due to heating.
It is within -the concepts of the invention to cool the entire shaft 15 or any portion thereof with fluid such as, for example, hydrocarbon oil and to utilize the heat imparted to the oil by incorporating this step with any oil treating process such as distillation orcracking. Similarly as the cooling medium and the heat thus utilized for such purposes as preheating the feed water to a boiler or generating steam, or steam may be employed as the cooling ,'medium and may be superheated in passing through shaft 15.
lFurnace 2, surrounding the retort, supplies the heat required for coking and devolatilization of the carbonaceous material as it passes through the rotatable shell 7 of the retort. Combustible materials such as, for example, fuel oil and air are supplied to the firing compartment or tunnel 23 of the furnace through burner 24, discharging into combustion zone 25 of the furnace at a point beyond the perforations 26 in arch 27. By means of this construction the shell 7 of the retort is protected against direct impingement of the flame and consequent overheating. Combustion products are discharged from the heatlng zone 28 of the furnace, surrounding the rotatable shell?, through flue 29 to a stack, not shown..
As an example of the utility of some of the major features of the present invention, by regulation of the speed of rotation of shell 7 and the speed and direction of rotation of shaft 15, the progress of` the carbonaceous material undergoing treatment through the heated zone may be assisted or retarded to any desired degree, thus affording means of controlling the time to which the material is exposed to heating. By the rotation of both shaft 15 and shell '7 of the retort, the material undergoing treatment is agitated, the inner surface of shell '1 is kept substantially free ofl adhering coke deposits which might cause early destruction of the shell due to overheating. By rotation o f shell '7 of the'retort, a constantly changing .portion of the shell is exposed to the most severe temperature in the heating zone of the furnace permitting the utilization of higher temperatures than otherwise possible without damaging the tortion. By a combination *of the inclined position of the retort and rotation of the shell the progress of carbonaceous material undergoing treatment through .the heated zone is insured, regardless of whether shaft l5 is utilized or not, and by the use of these two features in the treatment of materials of low coking index such as, for example, many petroleum cokes resulting from the destructive distillation or cracking of oil, the shaft and breaker blades may be eliminated.
