Description

A METHOD OF PROCESSING AND DRYING WASTE IN A CYCLIC CONTINUOUS PROCESS
FIELD OF THE INVENTION
This invention relates to a method and devices for drying waste in a closed loop cyclic continuous process.
BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION
Wastes are separated as sludge from several waste streams among others: sludge from municipal waste water plants, industrial waste water, municipal solid waste [MSW], any kind of hazardous waste and manure from livestock production facilities. The wastes are wet, in most cases, have undesired smell and pollute the ground and ground water by leached water from them. The wastes may have nutrients good for agricultural crops, or other substances that may be recovered or recycled. The wastes need some biochemical and/or drying process to enable environmentally and economically disposal. The present disposal alternatives include among other spreading on agricultural fields, landfills and incineration. The organic wastes can be used as energy source, but need some biochemical and/or drying process to be used economically for that.
Several manufacturers are drying sludge by using belts and/or rollers to help in extracting the moisture out of the waste when the sludge is wet and exposing more surface area to the drying air at all stages of drying. Others utilize heated or unheated screws with or without the assistance of hot air.
One significant obstacle of the existing methods lays at the first drying stage, where wet sludge is bulky and tough to dry, resulting in economically inefficient process.
It is an object of the invention to provide a method and devices for drying the waste in a cyclic closed loop continuous process, while maintaining homogeneous sludge properties all over the sludge cavity, where wet sludge is continuously mixed with relatively large quantities of dry sludge, forming a mixture that is optimally dryable. Here lumps of the waste exposed to hot and dry air allowing large surface area of the waste in contact with the air. The mixture of dry and wet lumps together with large surface area enhances the drying process and makes it economically efficient.
The dry waste coming out of the process will be readily available for disposal.
The dry waste has more environmental and economical benefits: a] while being spread in agricultural fields it will reduce soil and water pollution and increase its nutrient value as fertilizer b] in the event of waste used as energy source, it will require less heat in the energy generation process at a lower disposal cost. SUMMARY OF THE INVENTION
The invention provides a method for drying the waste in a cyclic closed loop continuous process, while maintaining homogeneous sludge properties all over the sludge cavity. Wet sludge is diffused evenly over the surface of the dry sludge and consequently reduced in size and mixed with relatively large quantities of dry sludge. The resulting mixture of small size large surface dry and wet lumps is optimally dryable. Here lumps of the waste exposed to hot and dry air allowing large surface area of the waste in contact with the air. The mixture of dry and wet lumps together with large surface area enhances the drying process and makes it economically efficient the lumps undergo size reduction and mixing thus allowing maximization of the vapor transfer rate between the hot/dry air and the waste.
The wastes to be processed may be sludge from sewage treating facilities, municipal solid waste [MSW], industrial waste any kind of hazardous waste and manure from livestock production facilities.

The feeding flow rate of the dry sludge is designed to maintain constant volume of sludge at the cavity, so by nature it is always equal to the indeed rate of the wet sludge. The in feed capacity is set by the operator according to the intake sludge conditions and the discharge sludge requirements The size reduction mixing mechanism, with or without throwing forward, mix the wet lumps with the already dry lumps of waste and reduces the size of too large lumps, generating easy to dry homogeneous mixture with maximal surface area exposed to the drying air.
Drying air can be fed on top of the sludge layer and from any other direction as well as needed for further enhancement of the drying process. After being dried, the waste is being collected and conveyed to a transporting device or to an energy generator, using the dry waste as a source.

Drying air 18 leaving the sludge is circulated back to the burning chamber. Excess air leaves the chamber via hood 10, which is regulated for optimal drying costs. The rotation of the cavity 7 brings the sludge to the mixer-cutter 8 which is responsible for breaking of the top layer of the newly entered sludge and for mixing bottom cavity sludge with top cavity sludge and throwing it forward, generating homogeneous sludge cross section. Following mixing the discharge mechanism 5 scrapes out the top sludge layer, i.e., dry sludge, and keeping cavity sludge volume constant. Operator hatch and view holed 6 are used for monitoring with the help of control unit 12.

Turning to FIG. 3 there is described a partial perspective view of the heating method including the heating chamber and the granulating flush diffuser/feeder. Wet sludge enters pipe 13 at high pressure. Control valves 21 are used for pulsating operation, for flow validation and for cleaning. Sludge pipes enter the burning chamber 3 and heated via direct flame, generated by the burner 9. Fins 2 enhance the heating. Diffuser nozzles 11 maintain back pressure at the sludge pipe and up to the diffusion point back pressure and dynamic characteristics of the diffuser are regulated outside the chamber 1 via regulator 20. Detectors 19 detect the actual operation of the diffuser.
