Abstract
A method of cleaning reaction products which result from flame combustion of high calorific value fuels containing impurities such as sulphur, chlorine and fluorine compounds by the addition of additives binding the impurities in the combustion chamber. The additives are added to the fuel or the combustion air to provide the required degree of mixing, and the temperature of the flame is reduced to that required for effective reaction of the additives by introducing a stream of heat absorbing material into the combustion zone 6. The heat absorbing material can be recirculated exhaust gas. <IMAGE>
Description
SPECIFICATION W Method for cleaning of reaction products from a flame combustion
The invention relates to a method of cleaning
reaction products which result from flame combus
tion of high calorific value fuels containing impuri
ties such as sulphur, chlorine and fluorine com
pounds, by the addition of additives binding the
impurities in the combustion chamber.
Methods are known whereby a dry cleaning of
reaction products from the combustion of fuels
containing impurities such as sulphur, chlorine and
fluorine, can be carried out. In these cases, the
additives binding the impurities are introduced into
the combustion chamber in various ways.
In a first known method, the procedure is such that
the additives are injected into the combustion cham
ber, above the flame region, by means of jets of air.
The disadvantage of this known method consists in
that the method of introducing the additives into the
combustion chamber does not ensure the binding of
the impurities by the additives because the relatively
small mixing energy of the jets of air is not sufficient
to achieve a satisfactory degree of mixing of the
reaction partners. In addition, the mixing of the
reaction partners is effected mainly in temperature
regions which do not ensure the optimum reaction
conditions. Furthermore, the available dwell time is
insufficient for the conclusion of the reaction be
cause the injection of the additives is generally
effected in regions where the reaction is slow.
In a second known method, the procedure is such
that the additives are admixed with the fuel immedi
ately before the fuel is introduced into the burner.
What was unfavourable about this method up till
now was that the additives were subjected to the
whole temperature spectrum of the flame and had to
travel through temperature ranges which led to an
inactivation of the additive. This applies, in particu
lar, to fuels with a high calorific value which
necessarily lead to flames with high temperatures.
It is therefore the object of the present invention to
influence the flame temperature of the combustion
of high calorific value fossil fuel in such a way with
regard to temperature and degree of mixing to
provide the necessary conditions for the binding of
harmful substances, so that the binding of the
harmful substances is carried out during combustion
through addition of gaseous or fine grained addi
tives.
For the solution of this problem it is proposed
according to the invention that part of the heat
released by combustion of the high calorific value
fuel is absorbed by a stream of heat absorbing
material introduced directly into the combustion
zone so as to restrict the temperature to that
necessary for binding the harmful substances and
that the additives are added direct to the fuel and/or
the combustion air to obtain the necessary degree of
mixing of the reaction partners.
Various materials may be used for the stream of
heat absorbing material for limiting the temperature
necessary for the reaction. According to one embodiment of the method of the invention, oxygen-poor cooled-down exhaust gas fed by return flow from the combustion process, or cooled-down exhaust gas from an external combustion process, can serve as the stream of heat absorbing material.
The invention also provides the possibility of using the exhaust gas from a gas turbine process at the same time as oxidising means and as a stream of heat absorbing material.
Another possibility is that recirculating exhaust gas inside the combustion chamber can be drawn into the flame and serve as the stream of heat absorbing material.
According to the invention, the additive itself can serve as the stream of heat absorbing material, as for example, with the addition of limestone, for example Dolomite, for the calcination of which energy has to be withdrawn from the flame.
Gases capable of reaction, metallic oxides, hydro xtjdes or carbonates as well as their aqueous suspen scions can serve as additives.
By the addition of the stream of heat absorbing material in the region of the flame, there is obtained for the reaction the necessary temperature and degree of mixing of the additives contained in the fuel and/or in the combustion air.
The use of the method according to the invention is described below by way of example with reference to a coal-dust burner (Figure 1).
With the burner consisting of core air tube 2, fuel-additive carrier-air part 1 and jacket air part 3, a primary combustion zone 6 is produced, the air number of which is between 0.6 and 1.1 times the stoichiometry.
The burner is so constructed that by specific means (swirl of the jacket air, burner mouth widened out in a taper, closed core air) in the interior of the flame a zone of intensive return flow 5 from a region of already advanced combustion is produced. As a result, the mixture of fuel and air is quickly heated and ignited. The heating and ignition can be influenced by adjusting the amount of core air.
The remaining combustion air is blown in through some nozzles at the periphery as a component stream of air 4 (also called stage air stream) which forms the secondary flame or post-reaction zone 7 outside the primary flame.
At the sections of the peripheral area of the flame which are not adjacent to the component air flow, the cold flue gases are drawn in from the combustion chamber by pulse exchange. By this means, the flame temperature is lowered which contributes to a favourable influencing of the course of the reaction between additive and gaseous harmful substances.
