  • the gas can then be led through a condensing heat exchanger unit, where at least some of the gas contents of water vapour are condensed, and the condensing heat can be utilized for heating of a stream of fluid, mainly water.
  • U.S. Pat. No. 4036606 A discloses a method and apparatus for cleaning gases, especially those generated by the pressurized gasification of coal, to remove impurities therefrom, especially tar, dust and salts, in which the gases are washed with a liquid, preferably water, in a scrubbing unit and the wash liquid is cleaned to yield a major clean liquid stream which is recycled by a circulating means to the scrubbing unit and a minor impurities concentrate stream from which the impurities are removed, in a separator unit.

  • the present invention references and makes use of a number of units, methods, concepts and the like. Although these are believed to have been used in a manner being ordinary to a skilled person, some of those are elaborated below.
  • Stream of particles is preferably used to mean a flow of particles.
  • a stream of particles comprise typically but not exclusively a mix of a fluid (gas or liquid) and particles typically being solid particles and the fluid may in such cases be seen as a fluid carrying the particles along.
  • Examples of streams of particles are a water condensate containing particles and produced e.g. from exhaust gas in which cases the fluid is on liquid phase or an exhaust gas containing particles in which case the fluid is on gas phase.
  • Stream of water is typically used to mean a flow of liquid water.
  • the stream of water may contain other constituents than H2O and even contain particles.
  • Stream of moisturised air is typically used to mean a flow of air or oxygen in gas phase that has being moisturised.
  • the stream of moisturised air may contain other constituents than air, oxygen and water and even contain particles.
  • Condensate cooler is typically used to mean a device being adapted to extract energy from a condensate produced by a gas cooler.
  • Condensate coolers applicable in connection with the present invention are heat exchangers such as shell and tube or plate heat exchangers.
  • the gas cooler and the condensate cooler be integrated in one unit, where a warm dry gas enter the cooler and a cool gas and a condensate exit the cooler.
  • Particle separator may be referred to as a particle separation system and vice versa.
  • Particle separation system in its broadest scope is used to indicate that a particle separator may comprises a number of elements at different positions in a plant.
  • Particles such as solid particles and water-soluble particles are transferred from the gas to the water condensate while the gas is cooled below the water dew point.
  • two fraction of water condensate are produced: One water fraction with a high load of particles and one water fraction with a lower load.
  • the particle separation system can be integrated in one reactor such as the bottom of a scrubber with condensate, where the high load particle stream is collected by gravity in the bottom of the scrubber and the lower load particle stream leave the scrubber at a higher level.
  • the particle separation system can also consist of several reactors, such as a quench which have a high load of particles in the exit water, followed by a scrubber which have low load of particles in the exit water.
  • separation devises such as hydrocyclones, filters etc. can be used to separate the particle load into a dirty and a clean stream of water.
  • the dirty stream of water can be added to the fuel, or it can be used to moisturize the ash or can be cleaned somewhere.
  • the cleaner stream of water can be used for energy purpose such as cooled in a heat exchanger and/or used for moisturizing air for the thermal reactor.
  • Energy plants provide electricity, steam, hot water, cooling for domestic and industrial purposes.
  • the hot water can be used for heating purposes, e.g. in houses, apartment houses, offices, in industries etc. and for domestic water. Installations for such purposes are produced in very different sizes, approx. 1 kW-250 MW input effect.
  • the water is usually heated in a closed circuit and led to a point of consumption, after which the water is returned to the heat production unit after release of the thermal energy.
  • the water temperature usually is 60-90° C.
  • the temperature of the water returning to the heat-production unit after cooling at the consumer (return) is about 30-50° C.
  • the hot water can be produced close to the required locations or be sent to the consumer via a district heating network.
  • Thermal reactors for solid fuels Energy plants are often based on at thermal reactor (combustion or gasification) where fuel is decomposed by reacting with oxygen and thus releasing a hot gas containing N2, CO2 water vapours and in case of combustion O2.
  • Air for thermal reactors for solid fuels In a combustion reactor air is often supplied different places:
  • Some thermal reactors use moisturised air.
  • Moisturised air give certain advantages in the thermal reactor.
  • moisturised air results in better gasification properties: (Steam-Carbon reactions) and moisturised air lowers the temperature and hereby prevents ash sintering.
  • moisturised air result in lower NOx and slagging as temperature is reduced.
  • Gasifiers converts solid fuel into a gaseous fuel, which can be used for chemicals and/or used in a power machine such as internal combustion gas engine or turbines. In some cases i.e. internal combustion engines, a cold gas is desired. The colder the gas is the higher is the energy content pr. volume and thus the more power can a given engine produce. The restriction to cool the gas is normally:
  • Fuel flexibility The content and the composition of the ash can be very different for coal and biomass/wastes. It is a wish of many plant owners to be able to use various types of fuels. But thermal reactors have restrictions on the type of fuel to be used. These restrictions typically relate to:
  • Heating value of fuel The heating value of the fuel is strongly affected by the water content of the fuel, thus a specific thermal reactor seldom can use both dry and wet fuel.
  • Gas cooler is typically used to reduce the temperature of the gas.
  • a gas cooler can be a dry gas cooler when cooling the gas to a temperature above the water dew point, or the gas cooler can be a wet gas cooler, when the gas is cooled to a temperature below the dew point of water present in the gas.
  • gas coolers applicable in connection with the present invention are: Shell and tube coolers, radiation coolers, evaporative coolers, quench, scrubbers.
  • the hot gas produced in the thermal reactor is cooled in one or several gas coolers.
  • the gas contain water vapours and have a water dew point above the exit temperature of the gas cooler, then evaporative energy of the water vapours will heat up the gas cooler. This heat can be transferred to e.g. district heating water. In such cases the gas cooler will produce a condensate that needs to be disposed.
  • Impurities such as particles, salts, etc. in the condensate from a gas from a thermal production unit fired with solid fuel will normally need to be removed before disposal into the environment.
  • Gas cleaning Due to environmental concern impurities of the gas may or should be removed. Common cleaning technologies are:
  • bag filters and electrostatic filters are very effective towards particulate filtration, whereas cyclones and scrubbers typically are less effective, but also normally cheaper.
  • Scrubbers It is well known, that hot gases can be cooled from high temperatures (100° C.-1000° C.) to below 100° C. by injection of water into the gas. Such systems are normally called scrubbers.
  • the scrubber water circulating is normally not filtered or cleaned in any way.
  • the scrubber water can be neutralised e.g. with NaOH or lime. Normally, only the excess water, the produced condensate, is cleaned before it is disposed.
  • Energy recovery of scrubber water It is well known to recover energy of the circulating scrubber water i.e. to pre heat district heating water. When scrubber water is loaded with particles the scrubber-district heating heat exchanger may have a short lifetime as coarse particles erode the heat exchanger.
  • a quench is prior to the main scrubber. Such a quench can be installed in order to protect the following scrubber from too high temperatures.
  • the water from the quench is typically lead to the main scrubber and mixed with the water herein.
  • Ceramic membrane filters In a ceramic membrane filter a high flow of water with contaminants is flowing through the membrane. A small fraction of water is diffusing through the membrane and thus leaves the filter cleaned. The particulates and other impurities leave the filter with the main water flow. Such “filter principle” is not used in condensing scrubbers, as particles and other impurities are not separated from the system.
  • Hydro cyclones can be used to make a low stream (about 5-20%) of particle loaded water fraction and a high stream (80-95%) of cleaner water fraction. Hydro cyclones are not used in condensing scrubbers as the water fractions with the high particle load needs further filtration, and therefore are the hydrocylone not cost efficient.
  • Emissions Energy plants using solid fuels meet certain emission regulations, which are constantly being tightened. Typically particle emission, CO, NOx is regulated but also SO2, Chlorine, Dioxine, Heavy metals, furans can be regulated. There are different standards of measure emissions. In some particle emission standards salts are measured as particle emission. i.e. Danish standard MEL-02.
  • Air moisturisers can be used in connection with condensing scrubbers. Air moisturisers result in several advantages including higher energy out-put in condensing unit and better combustion/gasification properties in the thermal reactor:
  • the present invention provides inter alia an improved method and an improved system or installation for thermal conversion of solid fuels into energy, hereof at least part of the energy as hot water.

  • particle separator a stream of fluid (gas and/or liquid) which contain particles enters and where at least two streams of water are produced with different amount of water, where the stream with the smallest amount of water have the highest load of particles.
