Definitions
- the present invention relates in general to the destruction of odorous compounds from industrial exhausts. More particularly, the invention relates to a system and method for using cool hydrogen flame for destruction of odorous compounds.
- VOCs Volatile Organic Compounds
- odorous compounds are often sulfur and nitrogen containing and some examples of which are dimethyl sulfide (DMS) and dimethyl sulfoxide (DMSO).
- DMS and DMSO are used as organic solvents in the semi-conductor industry. Unfortunately, they are difficult to treat with conventional methods, which can also be costly.
- One of the present methods used to contain and control DMS and DMSO is by activated carbon adsorption which is also costly and is merely transferring the pollutant from the gaseous phase into solid form.
- Other conventional methods may be simply to incinerate these offending compounds.
- This conventional treatment system requires additional space for installation of new equipment coupled to existing exhaust systems. The costs for such additional equipment may be quite high. Furthermore, extensive modifications to the existing exhaust systems are usually required for such treatment to be integrated properly.
- the present invention seeks to provide a system and method for using cool hydrogen flame for destruction of VOCs and odorous compounds.
- the present invention provides, a method for using cool hydrogen flame for destruction of VOCs and odorous compounds in an exhaust stream, comprising the steps: producing a hydrogen surface-mixed diffusion flame; and exposing the hydrogen surface-mixed diffusion flame to the exhaust stream; wherein the hydrogen surface mixed diffusion flame further produces free radicals for destroying the VOCs and odorous compounds.
- FIG. 1 illustrates a system in accordance with the present invention
- FIG. 2 A illustrates an alternative arrangement of FIG.l ;
- FIG. 2B illustrates another alternative arrangement of FIG. 1;
- FIG. 3 illustrates a further alternative arrangement of FIG. 1
- FIG. 4 illustrates another implementation using a flame spreader of FIG. 1;
- FIG. 5 illustrates a flowchart of a method in accordance with the present invention.
- a system 10 for using cool hydrogen flame for destruction of VOCs and odorous compounds comprises an existing exhaust system 6 for an industrial process or a factory 5.
- the existing exhaust system 6 comprises at least an exhaust duct or a chimney 8 for exhaust gases 12.
- the exhaust gases 12 may comprise of odorous compounds such as DMS, DMSO and other VOCs.
- the system 10 further comprises at least one burner nozzle 20 for generating a configurable hydrogen surface-mixed diffusion flame (CHSMDFs) 22.
- CHSMDFs configurable hydrogen surface-mixed diffusion flame
- the at least one burner nozzle 20 is situated inside the exhaust duct or chimney 8 of the existing exhaust system 6.
- the burner nozzle 20 is also situated such that the burner nozzle 20 is substantially in the path of the exhaust gases 12.
- the flame from the burner nozzle 20 can be described to be gentle, "cool” and clean burning.
- the CHSMDF 22 is produced by burning pure hydrogen in either pure oxygen or purified air with or without oxygen enrichment. However, the hydrogen and oxygen are not pre-mixed before being ignited. Instead, the burner nozzle 20 may be of a tube in orifice design. That is to say, a main nozzle ejecting oxygen gas, and a central nozzle positioned inside the main nozzle ejecting hydrogen gas.
- CHSMDF configurable surface-mixed diffusion flame
- the burner nozzle 20 may not necessarily be limited to the tube in orifice design and may also be a slot type burner nozzle. To ensure complete combustion of the hydrogen gas, an excess of oxygen is ejected from the burner nozzle 20.
- the flame length and flame front of the CHSMDF 22 may be configurable by adjusting the pressure and rate of flow of the hydrogen and oxygen gases.
- the hydrogen surface mixed diffusion flame is advantageously "cool” enough not to require additional cooling systems and will not substantially raise the temperature of the exhaust gases.
- the temperature of the exhaust gases after exposure to the CHSMDF 22 exhibited increases of less than 150°C.
- the absence of soot during combustion also significantly reduces radiative heat release by hydrogen flames further making it a "cool” flame.
- the main by-product from this hydrogen flame is water and free radicals.
- FIG.2B an alternative arrangement is shown whereby the throat of the chimney 8 is substantially reduced by the introduction of a venturi 40 into the throat of the chimney 8. This reduces the area of the throat of the chimney 8 such that a CHSMDF 22 with a relatively small flame front is still able to produce enough radicals to destroy the odorous compounds in the exhaust gases 12. There may be a change in pressure due to the reduction in area caused by the venturi 40, but may be negligible depending on the flow of the exhaust gases 12.
- a reaction chamber 45 may be installed in line with the ducts or pipes leading into the chimney 8.
- the reaction chamber 45 comprises a chamber 42 for housing a plurality of burner nozzles 20.
- the plurality of burner nozzles.20 are arranged such that the plurality of CHSMDF 22 produced is in the path of the exhaust gases 12 as they pass through the ducts.
- the apparatus 10 of the present invention can further comprise a plurality of gas nozzles and a plurality of spray nozzles for the introduction of ozone gas or hydrogen peroxide into the chimney 8 to enhance the production of free radicals.
- the method 500 can also further comprise additional steps of introducing or spraying ozone gas or hydrogen peroxide into the chimney 8.
- Hydrogen peroxide may be introduced into the exhaust duct or chimney 8 in the form of fine mists by at least one spray nozzle.
- the spray nozzle is preferably located near the burner nozzles 20.
- the spray nozzles could also be arranged such that the spray nozzles are co-axial to the burner nozzles 20.
- the fine mist of hydrogen peroxide directed into the exhaust duct or chimney 8 results in more free radicals being formed as the hydrogen peroxide dissociates due to the heat generated by the CHSMDF 22. Any water formed as a result of the dissociation of the hydrogen peroxide is converted into steam by the CHSMDF 22 and exits the exhaust duct or chimney together with the exhaust gases 12.
- the method 500 in accordance with the present invention further comprises an additional step of spraying a fine mist of hydrogen peroxide into the exhaust duct or chimney.
- This spraying of fine mist of hydrogen peroxide occurs simultaneously with the providing of the CHSMDF 22.
- the introduction of steam into the chimney 8 may also further assist in the destruction of the odorous compounds. Steam may also be introduced into the chimney 8 by way of the spray nozzle, but may be situated away from the burner nozzles 20.
