Description

    FIELD OF THE INVENTION
  • The present invention relates to a device for the biomass fuel pyrolysis, specifically relates to a biomass pyrolysis furnace.
  • BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION
  • The direct-heating pyrolysis furnace is a closed furnace, such as a pyrolysis furnace of preventing oxidation (Patent No.: CN200920062938.0), the side walls and the upper side of this pyrolysis furnace are all non-porous; and the bottom of the said furnace has gap for discharging water vapor, wood vinegar, wood tar and wood gas and the like. The biomass is renewable energy source having high moisture content. At the beginning of the pyrolysis, the moisture in the biomass is evaporated firstly. After the water changing into vapor, it must pass through the thick biomass and then enter the smoke flue to be discharged. Due to blocked by the thick biomass layer, the water vapor can't pass easily. Thus, the ignition temperature rises continuously over time, up to 600° C. and higher, while a large amount of the water vapor, wood vinegar gas, wood tar gas and wood gas and the like are generated, resulting in the rise of the pressure in the furnace.The wood gas is in positive proportion to the temperature and pressure, and due to poor discharging, the ignition temperature in the pyrolysis furnace further rises continuously and thus the pressure inside the furnace rises, therefore the pyrolysis in the furnace develops towards the direction of production of wood gas that is a lot of charcoal and wood tar are converted into the wood gas. The wood gas has low heating value and is a non-condensable gas, so it has to be evacuated which may cause environmental pollution and waste of energy. Even though the ignition temperature in the pyrolysis furnace reaches above 600° C., the moisture in the biomass far from the ignition place hasn't been evaporated. In order to discharge the gas, the furnace cover is often opened to lever the biomass with an iron rod. However the quickly burning of the wood tar gas and the wood gas at the top of the furnace brings danger to the operator, while a lot of flammable gas is discharged, resulting in waste of energy. Generally, it needs to be levered every four hours. The resulting amount of charcoal, wood vinegar, wood tar and wood gas is different under different pyrolysis temperatures and different pressure. At atmospheric pressure, under temperature of 300° C., 100 kg of fully dried wood can produce 53 kg of charcoal and only 5.6 cubic meters of wood gas with heating value of 6594KJ/M3, thus the total heating value is 36926KJ. Under temperature of 600° C., the yield of charcoal is 28.6 kg, and yield of the wood gas is 14.3 cubic meters with heating value of 15198KJ/M3, thus the total heating value of wood gas is 217331KJ which is 5.8 times of that under 300° C., as described on page 32 of ((Technology of Wood Waste Recycling & Utilization)) published by Chemical Industry Press. Wood tar is inversely proportional to the temperature and pressure, the higher the temperature is, the less oil produced, and the higher the pressure is, the less oil produced. The pyrolysis furnace of length 1 m, width 1 m and height 1 m generally takes more than eighty hours to evaporate the moisture in the biomass of 1 cubic meter and complete the pyrolysis to get the charcoal and oil during production process. And the water vapor and the wood tar gas are discharged from the smoke flue to condenser together, so the wood tar contains a large amount of the water vapor. The yield of the biomass charcoal and the wood tar is low. As a conclusion after several years' production, 1 ton of woody plant with 25% moisture content can produce 0.15 ton of charcoal and 2 kg of wood tar. A large amount of charcoal fuel is converted into the wood gas and wood vinegar, whereas the wood gas is a low-grade fuel and generally is emitted to the air, and the commodity value of the wood vinegar is low and be seldom used. The disadvantages of such device for the pyrolysis of biomass fuel are as follows: 1. it is heavy labor and unsafe to lever every few hours; 2. long time for the pyrolysis of biomass, low production efficiency and high production cost; 3. the yield of the biomass charcoal and wood tar is few, a large amount of charcoal fuel is converted into the wood gas and wood vinegar that is a big waste of the raw material.
  • The recovery tower used for separating the wood tar and the wood gas is arranged vertically in the prior art, such as the recovery tower described in “the environmentally friendly pyrolysis furnace” (Patent No. CN200920062939.5) is a metal drum. The top and the bottom of the metal drum are closed, and a plurality of hollow tubes are welded therebetween, the top end of the metal drum is welded with a cooling pipe, and the lower end of the metal drum is welded with an water pipe. The smoke gas discharged from the big smoke flue passes through the hollow tube in the recovery tower, resulting in the cooling of the wood tar, the wood vinegar and the water, and the wood gas is discharged. A wood tar basin is provided below the recovery tower. In order to ensure the cooling effect, the height of the recovery tower is usually increased by 20˜50 m. Since the distance between the bottom of the tower and the ground is short, once the path of the recovery tower is blocked by the wood tar, it is hard to clean the path with a tool.

  • The pyrolysis process of the biomass fuel is:
  • Opening the furnace cover (water-seal cover), fully placing the biomass fuel (such as plant straw) into the furnace container, closing the furnace cover, starting the induced draft fan and igniting the wood blocks, putting them through the ignition conduit of the furnace cover, closing the liquid-seal cover of the ignition conduit, the moisture is extruded from the top and the mesh holes of other five sidewalls of the furnace container following the rise of the temperature, then be discharged rapidly through the exhaust pipe through the exhaust gap between the furnace container and the furnace shell. By Keeping for 0.5 to 1.5 hours when the temperature reaches 80˜150, the moisture in the biomass cell has been evaporated completely. The biomass has been pyrolyzed into charcoal, wood tar and wood gas when the temperature of the furnace body reaches the setting temperature such as 300° C. following the rise of the temperature and the speeded pyrolysis. Since the exhaust is unblocked and the temperature of the pyrolysis portion is about 300° C., only small amount of the charcoal and the wood tar is converted into the wood gas. The wood tar and the wood gas flow into the recovery tower (length 20 to 50 m, with a angle a of 15 degree) through smoke pipe. The wood tar is cooled and flows out from U-shaped oil pipe, then flows into the oil collecting basin. Collecting the wood gas for baking the biomass, thus a large amount of biomass is saved. It takes three to four hours from igniting to 300° C., the speed is increased for more than twenty times compared with more than eighty hours by conventional furnace. It is proved in production that by using a furnace shell with a square of side length 1.2 m and a height of 1.5 m, and cubic furnace container with size of 1 m*1 m*1 m positioned in the furnace shell, 1 ton of woody plants with moisture content of 20% can produce 0.35 ton of charcoal and 0.08 ton of wood tar during about 4 hours of pyrolysis time. The pyrolysis furnace according to the invention has short time of biomass pyrolysis, high efficiency, and high pyrolysis recovery rate of wood tar. And only small quantity of charcoal fuel is converted into the wood gas and the wood vinegar, which means small waste of the raw material. Meanwhile, there is no need to open the furnace cover and lever the biomass during whole pyrolysis process, so the operation is safe and labor-saved.
