ATTORNEY United States Patent 3,212,553 METHOD AND APPARATUS FOR BURNING LIQUIDS OF LOW VOLATILITY Marie Edouard Joseph Cathala, Chemin de la Loge, Empalot-Toulouse, France Filed June 14, 1962, Ser. No. 202,475 Claims priority, application France, Dec. 14, 1961, 881,926 13 Claims. (Cl. 1584) This invention relates to a method for burning liquids of low volatility and to apparatus for performing the method. The invention likewise relates to certain industrial applications of the method and apparatus, both in the form of means for their utilization and in the new products resulting from the method and the apparatus.
It is commonly known that the use of low volatility combustible liquids, such as heavy heating oils, which can be so advantageously shipped and stored, encounters several difliculties. At the beginning of their introduction into industry, they were used according to a method of surface combustion, in which the fuel, kept at a constant level in a shallow bath, burns over its entire open horizontal surface, in exposure to air moved parallel to this surface. While acceptable for small installations, this scheme had to be abandoned for large installations, because, among other dis-advantages, it was liable to a locally uneven combustion, with the attendant production of smoke and soot, and it required a large combustion chamber.
For this reason, in industrial heating plants, the various heavy heating oils (masut, fuel oil, etc.) are now burned in a nozzle, in which the liquid jet is atomized, either by purely mechanical means or by being driven either by vapor or by compressed air. These nozzles, now and then noisy in operation, are delicate and do not guarantee a perfectly regular combustion at all rates of operation. They require a decidedly excessive amount of air, thereby substantially increasing the production of fumes and the attendant thermal losses. Any irregularity in operation entails the formation of droplets, which fall unburned in the ash-pit.
Finally, the atomizing of a low volatility fuel in the midst of the gaseous combustion supporting agent requires a large volume in order that the combustion chamber be sufficiently efiiicacious. But this requirement is particularly troublesome in modern installations requiring a high volumetrical efiiciency, such as gas turbines and jet engines.
During the course of his work and experimentation, seeking a solution to these problems, the Applicant was led to discover that, by bubbling the gaseous combustion supporting agent, at a sufficiently elevated temperature, through a layer (of appropriate depth) of the low volatility fuel used, it was possible to eliminate the atomizing of the fuel in a large volume of air or other gaseous combustion supporting agent. In other words the invention is based upon the obtaining of a partial vaporization of the fuel by preburning it in contact with a portion of the gaseous combustion supporting agent, which passes through it in the form of gaseous bubbles. Consequently, when a portion of the gaseous combustion supporting agent (that part called the primary gaseous combustion supporting agen is introduced, in the form of bubbles, at a temperature equal to or higher than the kindling temperature of the fuel, which has a known depth, all of the oxygen of the gas bubbles is used by the combustion that occurs in the midst of the fuel. All of the resulting heat is thereby stored in the fuel, the temperature of which consequently rises. The gas bubbles which clear the open surface of the fuel, and which no longer contain oxygen, are formed of residual nitrogen mixed with 3,212,553 Patented Oct. 19, 1965 the combustion products. In the form of saturated vapor they carry along a very substantial quantity of fuel, which is volatilized at a precise temperature and can be burned in a secondary combustion chamber, in contact with a suitable and precisely controllable amount of the combustion agent.
It is an object of this invention to provide a method for burning slightly volatile liquids, such as heavy oils (liquid sulfur, for example), which, in its most general form, essentially consists of running through the liquid (kept at a substantially constant level) a gaseous combustion supporting agent in the form of gas bubbles and at a temperature at least equal to the kindling temperature of the liquid, and then to introduce into the liquid, thus vaporized and carried off, an additional amount of the gaseous combustion supporting agent substantially sufficient for a complete final combustion.
According to one form of the method, before effecting the final combustion by the required amount of gaseous combustion supporting agent (preferably heated), an additional amount of the agent is introduced next to the open fuel surface during the course of vaporization. There is thus obtained an intermediate-combustion, which causes, at the same time, a notable rise in the temperature of the primary gaseous mixture and a dilution of the combustible vapors therein contained, thereby preventing any condensation of the vapors while on their way to the final combustion. A portion or all of the gaseous combustion supporting agent required for the complete combustion advantageously can be circulated in a jacket surrounding the vaporization zone, the intermediate combustion zone, and the final combustion zone, in order to use a part of the calories which otherwise would be lost from these zones.
The apparatus for practicing the method will now be described with reference to the figure shown in section of the accompanying drawing.
The apparatus consists of a chamber 1 made of a refractory metal or any other suitable material and preferably insulated from the outside by one or more insulating jackets, not shown. Chamber 1 supports a vessel 2 having a bottom 2' perforated by a plurality of apertures 3. The slightly volatile liquid is introduced into 2 by means of inlet 4, so that it is kept substantially constant at some lever 12, which depends upon the nature of said liquid and on the size and number of the apertures 3. This depth is generally between 5 and 10 centimeters.
The operation of the device will now be described.
The gaseous combination agent (which can be air),
initially heated (by any suitable means diagrammatically indicated at 6a) to a temperature slightly above the kindling point of the fluid or fuel, is brought in through inlet 6. The liquid is then introduced into vessel 2 through inlet 4. The fluid, which is now burning, continues to be introduced until it reaches a desired level h, while the agent can now be brought directly from the outside and heated to the appropriate temperature while passing through passages The agent, thus heated, reaches the bottom 2' of vessel 2 and bubbles through the fluid, which burns in part. The bubbles, divested of their oxygen and carrying a large quantity of vapor saturated with the fluid, come into contact, at the level of the fluid, with the gaseous combustion supporting agent which has passed through inlet 8 and apertures 9 of dome 7. In this area or zone (which can be called the intermediatecombustion chamber), immediately above the level of the liquid, there is thus an in'termedi ate-combustion. That gas which still carries along unburned liquid rises through convergent passage 10 until it reaches the neck, where it comes into contact with gaseous combustion supporting agent supplied by inlet 13 through apertures 12 and heated during its passage through space or chamber 14. The gas, thus mixed with the necessary amount of the agent to insure complete burning, burns in divergent passage 11, which forms the burner proper, and which is the final combustion zone or chamber.
Two practical examples of the invention will now be described.
EXAMPLE ONE In a burner of the invention, heavy heating oil having a heating value equal to 10,500 kcal./kg. was burned. The hydrogen-carbon ratio Was 14.8/ 852, and the boiling point was about 350 C. The combustion equation showed that one kilogram of this fuel would require 14.85 kg. of dry air, containing 3.46 kg. of oxygen, and would produce 15.85 kg. of fumes containing 3.12 kg. of carbon dioxide and 1.34 kg. of steam. The combustion tests were conducted at atmospheric pressure.
The air was heated by taking up the heat of the walls of the combustion chamber, and the temperature of the fuel, through which the hot air was bubbled, was stabilized at 275i-2 C. In order to completely avoid vapor condensation, the amount of intermediate-combustion air used was identical to that of the primary air; and the temperature of the outlet of the vaporization zone was raised from 250 C. to about 525 C. By carefully adjusting the secondary air, the percentage of oxygen relative to nitrogen in the fumes was lowered to 0.126%. Calculation showed that the amount of primary air required for burning one kilogram of heavy fuel oil would be charged with 44 kg. of fuel vapor.
Experiments have confirmed that the amount of fuel vaporized by complete combustion of a portion of the heavy heating oil in the vaporization chamber or zone depends on the pressure under which the burner operates. Using the same heavy heating oil, as above, the temperature of the fuel during vaporization rises to 320 C. under two atmospheres and to 475 C. under 3.5 atmospheres; the amount of fuel vaporized per unit amount burned falls from 44 kg. at atmospheric pressure to 40 kg. at two atmospheres and to 38 kg. at 3.5 atmospheres.
This example clearly demonstrates that the instant method of pre-burning heavy-hydrocarbons, by bubblingthrough a hot gaseous combustion supporting agent, is also particularly economical for vaporizing under pressure similar substances. When burning approximately 1 kg. of heavy heating oil under 3.5 atmospheres, 38 kg. of it are vaporized, mixed with less than 15 kg. of fumes, consisting of 11.4 kg. of nitrogen, 3.12 kg. of CO and 1.34 kg. of steam. By adding oxygen to the primary air, or even by substituting pure oxygen, it is possible to obtain an even greater vaporization under pressure. It can be worthwhile, before their final combustion, to physically or chemically treat these vapors under pressure to change their composition, after possibly having separated from them particular constituents.
EXAMPLE TWO Ratio of sulfur vapor sulfur burned Pressure, kg. [0111.
Bath temperature, C.
It is interesting to remark, in addition, that the temperature of the liquid sulfur bath, even at atmospheric pressure, remained sufliciently high so that it returned to its normal viscosity.
In this method, the partial combustion of the liquid sulfur can be used to produce sublimed industrial sulfur having a high surface activity. By vaporizing 14 kg. of sulfur for each kilogram of sulfur burned and immediately cooling the vapors issuing from the vaporization zone by continuously circulating residual nitrogen (charged with S0 and then recovering the solids, thus condensed, in some customary mechanical separating means (diagrammatically indicated at 15), such as a filter or a cyclone, one obtains an economical sublimation for condensing flowers of sulfur. By substituting pure oxygen for ordinary air and circulating pure sulfur dioxide to condense the sulfur vapors, it is possible to produce in the same operation both sublimed sulfur and pure sulfurous anhydride. For this opera-tion; the vaporization rate can be raised to around 30 kg. of vapor for each kilogram of sulfur burned.
