Description

BURNER FOR PRODUCING THERMAL ENERGY
The invention refers to a burner designed to obtain non-polluting calorific energy.
The technical field in which the invention can be applied is that of the production of thermal energy on both small and large scale, industrial.
The solutions known in the field of burners have as a basic principle the process of burning a fuel.
The downside of these solutions is that they are heavy consumers of fossil fuels, which are scarce resources and are heavy polluters.
The technical problem that the invention aims to solve is the realization of a burner that does not use the known classic fuels, significantly reduce pollution and can transform the result, calorific / thermal energy into other types of energy.
The heat burner, according to the claimed invention, solves the technical problem by being formed by two iron tubes with different diameters inserted into each other, in the space between the tubes taking place the reduction reaction. At one end of these pipes the water supply pipe is mounted and at the other end a nozzle is mounted.
Basically, the operation of the burner is based on the decomposition of the water circulating between the two metal tubes, using the iron from which the two tubes are made.
The decomposition of water by iron oxidation is characterized by the reaction of reducing oxygen in the water in direct contact with iron, at the optimal temperature of the reduction reaction, leaving hydrogen free.
The operation of the burner is based on the iron reduction reaction, called:
3Fe+4H2O=>FeiO4+4H2
The fact of reduction occurs at high temperatures, also called reduction areas. Between 8 00-900°C.
At these temperatures, water being vaporized, water molecules released the oxygen which goes into oxidation reaction with iron, due to the fact that iron has a high temperature.
As a result of the reduction reaction, the hydrogen in the water remains free and carries a high energy due to its high calorific power, namely 3400kcal.
SUBSTITUTE SHEET (RULE 26) In the reaction of water vapor, iron is the reducing agent and is oxidized, and the oxidizing agent, i.e. water (H2O), is reduced, following this oxidation reaction, resulting in ferrous-ferric oxide (Fe3O4).This invention brings a great advantage to obtain non-polluting caloric energy that can be transformed into other known energies, knowing that hydrogen has a high calorific power Q=3400kcal.
The burner for obtaining thermal energy, according to the invention, has the following advantages:
- Ensures obtaining non-polluting caloric energy;
- The resulting energy can also be transformed into other types of energy, such as open flame in the presence of atmospheric oxygen or obtaining pure hydrogen;
- Saves fossil fuel reserves;
- The simplicity of the construction reduces the time and effort for the execution and facilitates the interventions for possible repairs.
An example of the practical realization of the burner for the production of thermal energy in connection with Figure 1, which is the overall scheme of the burner, is given below.
The components of the burner are as follows:
1 - water supply pipe;
2 - metal elbow mounted between the two tubes which is provided with a nozzle 7 with a diameter of at least 1 mm in section;
3 - inner tube;
4 - outer tube;
5 - free space between the two tubes 3 and 4 where the reduction reaction takes place;
6 - flow control valve in the burner;
The burner consists of two tubes 3 and 4 made of iron, with different diameters, so that, inserted one into the other, there remains a circular space of at least 5 mm between them, where the reduction reaction takes place.
At one end of the assembly formed by the tubes 3 and 4, a water supply pipe 1 is connected, the other end being provided with an elbow 2 on which a nozzle 7 is mounted.
So, the nozzle 7 of the burner is mounted diametrically opposite the supply pipe 1. The operation of the burner is as follows:
To start the burner, one must raise the burner temperature to 800-900°C using an external heating source such as a flame or an electrical resistance wrapped around the burner. In the electric heating version, the temperature is kept constant using a potentiometer.
After reaching the thermal threshold at which the phenomenon of iron reduction occurs, the tap 6 for water supply from the network with a pressure of 2-2.5 bar, located on pipe 1, is opened.
When water enters between the two metal tubes 3 and 4 at the optimum temperature of reduction, water vaporization occurs, iron absorbs oxygen, and hydrogen remains free.
The hydrogen resulting from the reduction reaction is removed through the nozzle 7 and bums further in the presence of oxygen from the atmosphere.
The water entering with a certain flow which is regulated by means of a tap 6 mounted on the water supply pipe 1, will push the hydrogen and ferrous-ferric oxide (Fe3O4) through the nozzle 7 mounted inside the metal tube 3 transversely opposite to the supply pipe 1, mounted on elbow 2 of the burner.
Following this process, the hydrogen bums, the combustion being maintained by the oxygen in the atmosphere, at the same time maintaining the temperature required for the reduction reaction and removing at the same time, the resulting ferrous-ferric oxide (Fe3O4), without affecting the hydrogen combustion.
Keeping at a desired temperature necessary for the reduction reaction, which is monitored with a thermometer, is done by increasing or decreasing the water flow through pipe 1.
The working time of this burner is given by the amount of iron used, it works until its total transformation into ferrous-ferric oxide (Fe3O4).
Process continuity is ensured by using interchangeable burners.
By continuous heating with an electric resistance and in the absence of atmospheric oxygen, pure hydrogen can be obtained in order to store it for reuse as an energy source.
