Definitions
- the present invention relates to a petroleum residuum burning boiler which uses, as fuel, a flame-retardant petroleum residuum, such as asphalt pitch or petroleum coke.
- the boiler described in PTL 1 includes a high-temperature reduction combustion chamber and a low-temperature oxidation combustion chamber located under the high-temperature reduction combustion chamber and connected to the high-temperature reduction combustion chamber through a throat.
- a primary burner that supplies petroleum residuum fuel and primary combustion air is provided at the high-temperature reduction combustion chamber, and a two-stage combustion air supply nozzle is provided at the low-temperature oxidation combustion chamber.
- the fuel is combusted at a high temperature of about 1,450° C. to 1,550° C. in a fuel ultra-rich and reduction atmosphere.
- a combustion gas generated in the high-temperature reduction combustion chamber flows through the throat into the low-temperature oxidation combustion chamber.
- the low-temperature oxidation combustion chamber the combustion is completed at a low temperature of about 1,100° C. in an oxidizing atmosphere.
- the content of nitrogen and the content of sulfur are large since nitrogen and sulfur are concentrated in a petroleum refining process. Therefore, a flue gas of the flame-retardant petroleum residuum contains a large amount of NOx.
- the content of vanadium is large since vanadium is concentrated in the petroleum refining process. Therefore, combustion ash of the flame-retardant petroleum residuum contains vanadium oxide having a low melting point.
- combustion ash adheres to a furnace wall or a heat exchanger tube, blocking of heat transfer, blocking of ventilation, and high-temperature corrosion by influence of the high sulfur content may be caused. Therefore, when using the flame-retardant petroleum residuum as the fuel, reductions in the amount of NOx generated and the amount of soot generated are problems to be solved.
- the amount of NOx generated is reduced by combusting the flame-retardant petroleum residuum fuel through two stages that are high-temperature reduction combustion and low-temperature oxidation combustion. Moreover, according to the boiler of PTL 1, the amount of soot generated is reduced in such a manner that: steam is added to the primary combustion air; and a water gas reaction is caused between carbon and the steam to promote gasification of the carbon.
- the water gas reaction that is an endothermic reaction is advantageous at higher temperatures from the viewpoint of the equilibrium theory.
- steam that is significantly lower in temperature than a furnace internal temperature is supplied as a gasifying agent to the inside of a furnace, the furnace internal temperature decreases.

- the combustion method including: supplying an assist gas to the high-temperature reduction combustion chamber; and gasifying unburned carbon of a combustion gas of the petroleum residuum fuel by a water gas reaction by using steam, generated by combustion of the assist gas, as a gasifying agent.

- the inside of the furnace is maintained at a high temperature that is advantageous for the progress of the water gas reaction.
- the gasification of the unburned carbon is promoted, the amount of soot generated by the combustion can be reduced.
- the present invention can propose the petroleum residuum burning boiler and the combustion method of the petroleum residuum burning boiler, each of which promotes the water gas reaction more effectively than when steam is directly supplied as the gasifying agent to the inside of the furnace, and with this, realizes low soot combustion.

- a combustion method of the petroleum residuum burning boiler 1 configured as above will be described.
- the fuel and the primary combustion air are supplied from the burners 5 to the high-temperature reduction combustion chamber 2 , and the combustion of the fuel is started.
- Introduction of air to the high-temperature reduction combustion chamber 2 is suppressed, and the high-temperature reduction combustion chamber 2 is maintained in a reduction atmosphere in which an air ratio is less than one (for example, about 0.6 to 0.8).
- the high-temperature reduction combustion chamber 2 is maintained at a high temperature of 1,300° C. or more, desirably 1,450° C. or more and 1,550° C. or less by the combustion of the fuel and, according to need, the combustion of auxiliary fuel.

- the amount of soot generated by the combustion of the petroleum residuum fuel can be reduced by the gasification of the carbide.
- the petroleum residuum fuel, the assist gas, and the combustion air are ejected from the burners 5 in the high-temperature reduction combustion chamber 2 .

- the generated H 2 O gas serves as a gasifying agent, and the unburned carbon of the combustion gas is subjected to the water gas reaction to be converted into a CO gas and an H 2 gas.
- the amount of oxygen becomes inadequate, and therefore, the water gas reaction is not caused. As a result, the amount of soot may increase.
- the assist gas When the assist gas is supplied to the high-temperature reduction combustion chamber 2 , and the steam is generated by the combustion of the assist gas, a decrease in the furnace internal temperature can be suppressed more than when the steam lower in temperature than the furnace internal temperature is directly supplied as the gasifying agent to the inside of the furnace.

- a vertical axis indicates (1) a ratio of the amount [Kg] of soot to the amount [t] of petroleum residuum fuel supplied and (2) combustion efficiency [%].
- the amount of soot contains bottom ash discharged from the ash discharger 8 and the ash outlet port 15 and fly ash collected by a dust collector in the post-processing step connected to the gas duct 12 .
- the petroleum residuum burning boiler 1 includes: the furnace body 20 including the high-temperature reduction combustion chamber 2 in which combustion is performed at 1,300° C. or more and the air ratio of less than one and the low-temperature oxidation combustion chamber 3 which is connected to the high-temperature reduction combustion chamber 2 and in which combustion is performed at a temperature of less than 1,300° C.
