10 Claims. or. 44-10 The present invention is concerned with a process for the production of binderless briquettes from coal.
It is an object of the present invention toprovide a more desirable way of feeding coal to the briquetting machine.
It is a further object of this'invention to control the temperature of the coal.
It is still another object of this invention to control the velocity of the coal.
It is another object of this invention to control the amount of oxidation of the coal.
It is still another object of this invention to provide a method of simultaneously cooling the finishedbriquettes and preheating the unprocessed coal.
The accomplishment of these and other objects of the invention will become apparent from a reading of the following description and the figures of the drawing.
The novel process involves feeding coal particles of fineness from 20 mesh or coarser up to 300 mesh or finer by means of a hot gas stream into a cyclone separator from which the coal particles are separated from the gas and fed into a conventional briquetting machine. A portion of the gas is vented off to the atmosphere,
, while the remainder. of the gas is recycled and fed by means of a blower into the gas stream at a point between the gas coming from a furnace (the main source of gas) and the point of injection of the coal particles into the gas stream, or as shown in the drawings, which will be referred to with particularity hereinafter, the recycled gas may be fed into the gas stream at a point before that at which the gas from the furnace enters the stream. The amount of gas vented to the atmosphere is always equal to the amount of gas introduced at the burner plus any water vapor evaporated from the coal. The recycling of the hot gases has several advantages over the prior art methods of feeding the coal to the briquetting machine. The first advantage is heat economy. The recycled gas will assist in heating the coal and, hence, a lesser amount of fuel will be requiredto introduce heated gas into the system. The coal can be conveyed at the most suitable velocity throughv the system without regard to the amount of heat or gases being supplied by the furnace. Since the velocity of the gases in the system is independent of the'furnace, but controlled only by the speed of the blower, the character of the gases may be made either oxidizing or reducing, as required, for most eflicient processing of the coal. More or less heat may be furnished from the furnace in order to heat the coal to the most desirable processing temperature Without regard to the initial temperature of the coal and without effecting the'velocity of the coal or gases through the system. This provides the necessary flexibility to process coals of diverse chemical composition and of widely divergent initial temperature conditions under conditions most favorable forv each coal. It has long been recognized, for example, that satisfactory briquettes for most purposes are-not pro- States Patent bustion.
2,937,080 Patented May 17, 1960 duced from coals with a high swelling index,,eig.,, a swelling numberabove7 British standard swelling test. On a test with .coal (New River coal) of highv swelling number, e.g., over 9+, the briquetted coalof the briquettesshowed' a satisfactory swelling, number, namely, of 7 It has been established that, with the equipment herein described, satisfactory briquettes can be made from such coals with greatly, reduced swelling properties-by controlling the amount-of free air contained within the system, e.g.,.by using 10% to 50%, preferably. 25%,, air and the balance of the gas beingthe products. of.com.- Coals of low swelling.index,,e'.g., a swelling index of less than 5, require no free air in the system. in order to formbriquettes with satisfactory. properties.- The process and equipment herein described, therefore,v serve a dual purpose, not only to produce briquettes with satisfactory physical strength, but also with. satisfactory burning properties. as well..
In a preferred form of operating the present invention, the briquettes are discharged from the briquette press by means of a. chute or other suitable conveyor into a bin or hopper and admixed with the unprocessed coal which is fed into the'bin in suitable. quantity froman independent conveyor. The bin is so sizedthat a suitable contact time, e.g., about 10 to 20 minutes,.be-- tween the unprocessed coal and thefinished briquettes Will'bring the briquettes'and unprocessedcoal intosubstantial thermal equilibrium. The cooled briquettes and preheated coal are discharged-continuously from-the bottom of the bin'by any suitable conveyor and screened;
'the'finished briquettes being now ready for storage or sults in even greater heat economy than the method wherein the briquettes are not used to preheat the incoming coal. Briquettes have a tendency to ignite spon' taneously if not cooled before stockpiling. When operating according to the preferred form of the inven tion, this problem is overcome as the briquettes are adequately cooled by the incoming coal.
The temperature'of the gases within the system, after admixture with the gases: from the furnace, should be from 500 F. to 1.000 F. After'the preheatedcoalis introduced into the gas stream, the temperature of these gases drops rapidly to' 300 F. to 700 F. The temperatureof' these gases at the cyclone is about 5 F. hotter than the temperature of the coal. The temperature of the coal shouldbe maintained between about 300 F. to" 700 F. when it reaches'the briquetting machine rolls. After admixture of the briquettes with the un treated coal, the temperatureof the briquettes drops toabout 200 F.-to 300 F., e.g., 250"F.
The percentage of recycled gas to total gas is'us u'ally between about 40-%-and and preferably about 60% The temperature of the coal just beforeitreaches-the" briquetting machine should be just below the softening .point, e.g., point of nascent plasticity,- ofthe coalfor" maximum efficiency in operation; Many coals can be compressed into suitable agglomerates within the temperature range of'ab'oiit 300 F: to700" F.
Referring to the drawing:
Figure 1 is'a. schematic drawin g of a suitable 1 through pipe 2 to conduit 3. The burner in the furnace is under pressure from a fan (not shown) to blow the gas upwardly. Raw coal is introduced through hopper 5 into conduit 3, thence through connection 6 into cyclone separator 7. A part of the gas is removed through vent 8 while the remaining gas passes through connection 9 into conduit 10 from whence it is recycled and fed by means of a blower 21 into conduit 3. The recycled gas may enter the gas stream at a point along conduit 3 intermediate the gas coming from the furnace (the main source of gas) and the point of injection of the coal particles into the gas stream, but as shown in Figure 1, preferably the recycled gas is introduced into conduit 3 in advance of the gas from the furnace 1 which enters conduit 3 through pipe 2.
The coal is separated from the gas particles in the cyclone separator and passes through airlock 11 into chute 12 from whence it falls between briquetting rolls 13 in briquetting machine 14. The briquetted coal is removed onto a chute 22 (Figure 2). The briquetting machine is supported by stands 15 and 16. Motor 17 is also mounted on stand 16. Shaft 18 runs from motor 17 and carries a'pulley (not shown) upon which is mounted a series of belts which are also entrained over pulley 19 to which is connected shaft 20 which is attached through appropriate means to the briquetting rolls.
Referring to Figure 2, the hot briquettes emerge from the briquetting machine on chute 22 and fall into mixing bin 23. Ground raw coal feed is introduced into mixing bin 23 through conduit 24. Bin 23 is so sized that there is an'average contact time between the raw coal feed and the hot finished briquettes of about 10 to 20 minutes, at the end of which time the raw coal and briquettes will be in substantial heat equilibrium. The mixture of raw coal feed and briquettes fall onto endless conveyor 25 which is entrained over pulleys 26 and 27 which are connected to a source of power (not shown) so as to advance the conveyor continuously carrying along with it the mixture of heated raw coal and cooled finished briquettes. As the conveyor passes over pulley 27, the raw coal and finished briquettes fall off onto screen 28. The screen is selected so as to have openings large enough to permit the passage of the heated raw coal therethrough, but small enough to prevent the passage of the cooled briquettes therethrough. The cooled briquettes emerge from the lower end of the screen 28 ready for use. The heated raw coal passes through screen 28 into preheated coal chute 29 and thence, by conveyor means 30, to hopper 5. From hopper 5 the preheated coal passes by way of coal feeder 31 to conduit 3.
Example 1 In a typical example, embodying the features of our invention and using the preferred form of the apparatus, the following conditions were employed. The gas from the furnace on analysis showed carbon dioxide, nitrogen, oxygen, and standard products of combustion, depending on the fuel used. The blower was operated to give a velocity of gas of about 3000 to 6000 feet per minute. Approximately 60% of the gas was recycled. Raw coal of 9+ swelling number and mesh size between about 20 and 100 was fed into mixing bin 23 while, simultaneously, hot briquettes also were fed into the mixing bin at a rate equivalent to the raw coal.-
Example 2 the coal at the time it reached the briquetting machine was 295 F.
Example 3 Example 2 was repeated utilizing a high swelling coal having a softening point of about 505 F. and a mesh size of about 20 to 100. About 40% of the gas was recycled. Furnace gases were employed having an initial. temperature of 750 F. This temperature dropped to 500 F. after admixture with the coal, and the temperature of the coal at the time it reached the briquetting machine was 495 F.
Example 4 Example 2 was repeated utilizing a high swelling coal having a softening point of about 705 F. and a mesh size of about 20 to 300. About of the gas was recycled. Furnace gases were employed having an initial temperature of 1000" F. This temperature dropped to 700 F. after admixture with the coal, and the temperature of the coal at the time it reached the briquetting machine was 695 F.
While the invention has been described in accordance with the preferred embodiments, it is apparent that many variations and modification may be resorted to without departing from the scope of equivalents within the purview and spirit of this invention, as defined in the appended claims.
