Description

本発明は、固形燃料およびその製造方法に関するものである。   The present invention relates to a solid fuel and a method for producing the same.

従来、下水汚泥などの有機性廃棄物を有効利用する方法としては、コンポスト化により肥料として利用されるほか、セメント会社での再利用などの方法に限定されており、大半のものは脱水、焼却処理後、埋め立て処分とされてきた。
そこで、近年では有機性廃棄物が保有している熱量を燃料として有効利用するための方法が盛んに検討されるようになってきた。ところが、有機性廃棄物を燃料として利用する場合、汚泥特有の悪臭が発生すること、および石炭などの代替燃料としては発熱量がやや低いという問題点があった。
Conventionally, organic waste such as sewage sludge is effectively used as fertilizer by composting, and is limited to reuse at cement companies. Most of them are dehydrated and incinerated. After processing, it has been disposed of in landfills.
Therefore, in recent years, methods for effectively using the amount of heat held by organic waste as fuel have been actively studied. However, when organic waste is used as a fuel, there is a problem that a bad odor peculiar to sludge is generated and a calorific value is somewhat low as an alternative fuel such as coal.

有機性廃棄物を燃料として利用するには、大きく分けると炭化処理と乾燥処理の2つの処理方式がある。
炭化処理で製造された製品は、大部分の臭気成分が除去されているため、悪臭発生に関する問題性は比較的少ない。ところが、乾燥処理と比較すると炭化処理工程は多大な投入エネルギーを必要とすることや、有機性廃棄物から多くの有機質成分を揮発させることから、炭化処理で製造された製品はコスト面および有機性廃棄物が持つ熱量を低下させるという欠点があった。
In order to use organic waste as a fuel, there are roughly two treatment methods: carbonization treatment and drying treatment.
Since most of the odor components are removed from the product produced by carbonization, there are relatively few problems related to the generation of malodor. However, compared with the drying process, the carbonization process requires a lot of input energy and volatilizes many organic components from organic waste. There was a drawback of reducing the amount of heat of waste.

乾燥処理方式は、投入エネルギーに関するコスト面や利用可能な回収エネルギー量が多い点で、炭化処理より有利となる一方、汚泥特有の悪臭が残存することが大きな課題であった。特に、乾燥処理方式で製造された製品は、吸水により臭気が更に強くなること、および燃料としての品質が著しく低下することから、持続性の高い臭気対策および品質を安定化する対策が必要であった。   The drying treatment method is more advantageous than the carbonization treatment in terms of the cost related to the input energy and the amount of recovered energy that can be used, but it has been a major problem that a bad odor peculiar to sludge remains. In particular, products manufactured by the dry treatment method have a stronger odor due to water absorption, and the quality as a fuel is significantly reduced. Therefore, measures for highly durable odors and measures to stabilize the quality are necessary. It was.

一方、RPF(Refuse Paper & Plastic Fuel)は、発生履歴が明らかな産業廃棄物を原料とすることで安定した品質の固形燃料とされている。しかしながら、高品質のRPFを製造するための原料供給量に制限があることや、廃プラスチックを主体として製造されたRPFは高い発熱量を示すことから、石炭など発熱量が異なる他の燃料の代替品として使用する場合には利用量に制限があった。   On the other hand, RPF (Refuse Paper & Plastic Fuel) is a solid fuel of stable quality by using industrial waste as a raw material whose generation history is clear. However, because there is a limit to the amount of raw material supplied to produce high-quality RPF, and RPF produced mainly from waste plastic shows a high calorific value, it can replace other fuels with different calorific values, such as coal. When used as a product, there was a limit to the amount of use.

さらに、RPFに有機性廃棄物を混合して固形燃料を作製する方法が検討されている。
例えば特許文献1では、不溶融性可燃廃棄物に溶融原料を配合し、押出し成型機にてプラスチックを加熱溶融し、全体に分散粘結させることで撥水性の固形燃料を得る方法が記載されている。
また、特許文献2では、混合廃棄物から不燃物を除去して抽出した可燃廃棄物および廃プラスチックと、高水分の有機性廃棄物に乾燥処理を施した乾燥有機物とを用いてRPFを製造する方法が記載されている。
Furthermore, a method for preparing a solid fuel by mixing an organic waste with RPF has been studied.
For example, Patent Document 1 describes a method of obtaining a water-repellent solid fuel by blending a melting raw material with an infusible combustible waste, heating and melting the plastic with an extrusion molding machine, and dispersing and kneading the whole. Yes.
Moreover, in patent document 2, RPF is manufactured using the combustible waste and waste plastic which extracted by removing the noncombustible material from the mixed waste, and the dry organic substance which performed the drying process to the high-moisture organic waste. A method is described.

しかしながら、特許文献1や特許文献2等に記載の従来の固形燃料や資源化された廃棄物は、悪臭が発生する場合があった。また、水に接触すると容易に水が浸漬して型崩れを生じる場合があった。   However, the conventional solid fuel described in Patent Document 1, Patent Document 2, and the like, or the waste that has been turned into resources, sometimes generate a bad odor. In addition, when it comes into contact with water, water may be easily immersed to cause loss of shape.

Hereinafter, such a method for producing a solid fuel is also referred to as “the production method of the present invention”.

本発明の製造方法における各工程について、以下に説明する。   Each step in the production method of the present invention will be described below.

<混合工程>
本発明が備える混合工程について説明する。
混合工程では、初めに、有機性廃棄物とRPF製造原料とを用意する。
<Mixing process>
The mixing process with which this invention is provided is demonstrated.
In the mixing step, first, an organic waste and an RPF production raw material are prepared.

有機性廃棄物とは、下水汚泥、し尿汚泥、食品廃棄物(生ごみ、焼酎粕、コーヒー粕等)、畜産廃棄物(牛糞尿、豚糞尿等)等である。より具体的には、下水処理施設や食品工場等から排出され、活性汚泥法や嫌気性消化法等によって水処理して生じる有機成分を含む汚泥が例示される。
また、通常の下水汚泥、し尿汚泥、食品廃棄物、畜産廃棄物等に脱水処理や乾燥処理を施した後のものであってもよい。
有機性廃棄物の成分、水分などの性状は特に限定されず、通常の下水汚泥、し尿汚泥、食品廃棄物、畜産廃棄物等と同様であってよい。
Organic waste includes sewage sludge, human waste sludge, food waste (such as food waste, shochu, and coffee lees), and livestock waste (such as cow manure and pig manure). More specifically, sludge containing organic components discharged from a sewage treatment facility, a food factory, and the like and generated by water treatment by an activated sludge method, an anaerobic digestion method, or the like is exemplified.
Moreover, the thing after performing a dehydration process or a drying process to normal sewage sludge, human waste sludge, food waste, livestock waste, etc. may be sufficient.
Properties of organic waste such as components and moisture are not particularly limited, and may be the same as ordinary sewage sludge, human waste sludge, food waste, livestock waste, and the like.

有機性廃棄物が、下水処理施設や食品工場等から排出される、活性汚泥法や嫌気性消化法等によって水処理した際に生じる有機成分を含む汚泥である場合、通常、遠心脱水や圧縮脱水等によって、含水率は80質量%程度に調整されており、その性状は粘土状の軟質体である。
また、このような含水率が80質量%程度の汚泥に乾燥処理を施した後のものを、混合工程において有機性廃棄物として利用することが好ましい。ここで、含水率が80質量%程度の汚泥を乾燥するための方法は特に限定されず、例えば従来公知の方法を適用することができるが、乾燥処理の対象物に過度の熱が加わらないように、間接加熱方式や減圧加熱方式の乾燥機を用いて乾燥することが好ましい。
When organic waste is sludge containing organic components discharged from sewage treatment facilities, food factories, etc. and generated by water treatment by the activated sludge method or anaerobic digestion method, etc., usually centrifugal dehydration or compression dehydration The water content is adjusted to about 80% by mass and the like, and its property is a clay-like soft body.
Moreover, it is preferable to use the thing after performing a drying process to such a sludge whose water content is about 80 mass% as an organic waste in a mixing process. Here, the method for drying the sludge having a water content of about 80% by mass is not particularly limited. For example, a conventionally known method can be applied, but excessive heat is not applied to the object to be dried. Furthermore, it is preferable to dry using an indirect heating type or reduced pressure heating type dryer.

本発明の製造方法では、有機性廃棄物の水分含有率を測定し、これを把握する。後に詳細に説明するように、この水分含有率に基づいて、前記有機性廃棄物とRPF製造原料との混合比を最適値に調整するからである。
有機性廃棄物の水分含有率(質量%)は約50gの有機性廃棄物を105℃に調整した乾燥機内に20時間保持し、この乾燥処理によって減った質量を水分として算出して求める値を意味するものとする。
このような方法で測定して求めた水分含有率(質量%)が、後述する式(I)におけるxである。
In the production method of the present invention, the moisture content of the organic waste is measured and grasped. This is because, as will be described in detail later, the mixing ratio of the organic waste and the RPF production raw material is adjusted to an optimum value based on the moisture content.
The moisture content (% by mass) of the organic waste is a value obtained by calculating about 50 g of organic waste in a dryer adjusted to 105 ° C. for 20 hours, and calculating the mass reduced by this drying process as moisture. Shall mean.
The water content (mass%) obtained by measurement by such a method is x in the formula (I) described later.

有機性廃棄物が上記のような汚泥(好ましくは乾燥処理後の汚泥)である場合、この汚泥の発熱量は、通常、ドライベースで4000〜5000kcal/kg程度である。   When the organic waste is sludge as described above (preferably sludge after drying treatment), the calorific value of this sludge is usually about 4000 to 5000 kcal / kg on a dry basis.

なお、本発明においてドライベースとは、水分以外の成分に基づくことを意味するものとする。例えばドライベースでの質量を求める際は、含水状態での質量を測定し、前述の有機性廃棄物の水分含有率の測定方法と同様の方法によって測定した水分含有率を用いて、水分以外の質量、すなわちドライベースでの質量を算出して求めるものとする。   In addition, in this invention, dry base shall mean based on components other than a water | moisture content. For example, when determining the mass on a dry basis, measure the mass in a water-containing state, and use the moisture content measured by the same method as the method for measuring the moisture content of the organic waste described above. The mass, that is, the mass on a dry base is calculated and obtained.

したがって、ドライベースの発熱量を求める際は、測定対象物(汚泥等)を乾燥させ、乾燥状態での発熱量を測定する。   Therefore, when obtaining the calorific value of the dry base, the measurement object (sludge etc.) is dried and the calorific value in the dry state is measured.

RPF製造原料について説明する。
RPFとは、通常、産業系廃棄物のうち、マテリアルリサイクルが困難な廃プラスチックや古紙を原料とした高カロリー固形燃料を意味する。本発明の製造方法においてRPF製造原料とは、このような通常のRPFを製造するために用いることができる廃プラスチックや古紙を主成分とする原料を意味するが、すでに固形燃料の態様となっているRPFも含まれるものとする。
また、プラスチックおよび/または紙を主成分(プラスチックと紙との合計が概ね50質量%以上の含有率とする)とする原料であれば、本発明の製造方法におけるRPF製造原料に含まれるものとする。
The raw material for producing RPF will be described.
RPF usually means a high-calorie solid fuel made from waste plastic or waste paper that is difficult to recycle among industrial waste. In the production method of the present invention, the RPF production raw material means a raw material mainly composed of waste plastic or waste paper that can be used to produce such a normal RPF, but it has already become a form of solid fuel. RPF is also included.
Moreover, if it is a raw material which has a plastic and / or paper as a main component (the sum total of a plastic and paper shall be about 50 mass% or more), it shall be contained in the RPF manufacturing raw material in the manufacturing method of this invention. To do.

RPF製造原料が含み得るプラスチック(廃プラスチックを含む。以下、同様。)の種類は特に限定されないが、燃焼により有毒ガスを生じないものが好ましい。例えばポリスチレン、ポリエチレン、ポリプロピレンであることが好ましい。   The types of plastics (including waste plastics, the same shall apply hereinafter) that can be contained in the raw material for RPF production are not particularly limited, but those that do not generate toxic gas by combustion are preferred. For example, polystyrene, polyethylene, and polypropylene are preferable.

プラスチックおよび紙(古紙を含む。以下、同様。)以外に、RPF製造原料が含んでもよいものとして、例えば廃木材が挙げられる。   In addition to plastic and paper (including waste paper, the same applies hereinafter), examples of materials that may be contained in the RPF production raw material include waste wood.

RPF製造原料の形状等は特に限定されず、従来公知のRPFを製造するために用いることができる原料と同様であってよい。例えばRPF製造原料が含むプラスチックであれば、そのプラスチックは0.1〜5mm程度の粒状、1〜300mm程度の面積のフィルム状またはひも状のものであってよい。例えばRPF製造原料が含む紙であれば、その紙は0.01〜400mm程度の面積の紙片であってよい。 The shape or the like of the RPF production raw material is not particularly limited, and may be the same as the raw material that can be used for producing a conventionally known RPF. For example, if it is a plastic contained in the RPF production raw material, the plastic may be in the form of a film or string having a grain size of about 0.1 to 5 mm and an area of about 1 to 300 mm 2 . For example, if it is the paper which RPF manufacturing raw material contains, the paper may be a piece of paper with an area of about 0.01 to 400 mm 2 .

また、RPF製造原料の水分は特に限定されず、従来公知のRPFを製造するために用いることができる原料と同様であってよく、例えば0〜30質量%の水分含有率であってよい。RPF製造原料の水分は、1質量%以上であってよく、20質量%以下であることが好ましい。   Moreover, the water content of the RPF production raw material is not particularly limited, and may be the same as the raw material that can be used for producing a conventionally known RPF, for example, a water content of 0 to 30% by mass. The water content of the RPF production raw material may be 1% by mass or more, and preferably 20% by mass or less.

本発明の製造方法が備える混合工程では、上記のような有機性廃棄物とRPF製造原料とを混合して混合原料を得るが、有機性廃棄物とRPF製造原料との混合比を、有機性廃棄物に含まれる水分の含有率に基づいて調整する。   In the mixing step provided in the production method of the present invention, the organic waste and the RPF production raw material as described above are mixed to obtain a mixed raw material. The mixing ratio of the organic waste and the RPF production raw material is adjusted to the organic ratio. Adjust based on the moisture content of the waste.

本発明者は鋭意検討し、有機性廃棄物に含まれる水分の含有率に基づいて有機性廃棄物とRPF製造原料との混合比を調整し、最適化することで、悪臭を発生し難く、水と接触しても水を吸収し難く、型崩れし難い固形燃料が得られることを見出した。また、好ましくは、有機性廃棄物の水分含有率と、前記有機性廃棄物および前記RPF製造原料の合計質量に対する前記有機性廃棄物の質量の割合(質量%)とが、特定の関係式を満たすように調整すると、より悪臭を発生せず、より水を吸収し難く型崩れし難い固形燃料が得られることも見出した   The inventor diligently studied and adjusted the mixing ratio between the organic waste and the RPF production raw material based on the moisture content contained in the organic waste, and optimizing it. It was found that a solid fuel that hardly absorbs water and does not lose its shape even when contacted with water can be obtained. Preferably, the moisture content of the organic waste and the ratio (% by mass) of the mass of the organic waste to the total mass of the organic waste and the raw material for producing the RPF have a specific relational expression. It has also been found that when adjusted to satisfy, solid fuel that does not generate more bad odor, absorbs water more easily and does not lose its shape is obtained.

また、本発明の製造方法によって得られる固形燃料は、型崩れし難いので、その結果、粉塵を発生し難いと考えられる。   Further, the solid fuel obtained by the production method of the present invention is unlikely to lose its shape, and as a result, it is considered difficult to generate dust.

本発明の製造方法によると、有機性廃棄物の混合比を高くしても、得られる固形燃料は悪臭を発生し難く、かつ、水を吸収し難く型崩れし難い。具体的には、前記有機性廃棄物と前記RPF製造原料との合計質量に対する前記有機性廃棄物の質量の割合(質量%)を35〜55質量%程度にまで高めることもできる。この場合であっても、悪臭が発生し難く、かつ、水を吸収し難く型崩れし難い固形燃料を得ることができる。このためには、有機性廃棄物の水分含有率に着目し、これを最適値に調整したうえで、さらに、この水分含有率の場合に最適な有機性廃棄物とRPF製造原料との混合比に調整する。   According to the production method of the present invention, even if the mixing ratio of the organic waste is increased, the obtained solid fuel does not easily generate a bad odor, does not easily absorb water, and does not easily lose its shape. Specifically, the ratio (mass%) of the mass of the organic waste to the total mass of the organic waste and the RPF production raw material can be increased to about 35 to 55 mass%. Even in this case, it is possible to obtain a solid fuel that is less likely to generate bad odor, hardly absorbs water, and hardly loses its shape. For this purpose, paying attention to the water content of organic waste, adjusting it to an optimum value, and further mixing ratio of organic waste and RPF production raw material optimal for this water content Adjust to.

また、RPF製造原料は、供給量に制限がある場合がある。すなわち、RPF製造原料の割合を少なくし、その分、有機性廃棄物の割合を多くする必要がある場合がある。このような場合であっても、本発明の製造方法によれば、有機性廃棄物の水分含有率に着目し、これを最適値に調整することで、RPF製造原料の割合を少なくし、その分、有機性廃棄物の割合を多くしたうえで、悪臭が発生し難く、かつ、水を吸収し難く型崩れし難い固形燃料を得ることができる。
逆に、RPF製造原料の割合を多くする必要がある場合も、本発明の製造方法によって適切に対応することができる。すなわち、有機性廃棄物の水分含有率に着目し、これを最適値に調整することで、RPF製造原料の割合を多くし、その分、有機性廃棄物の割合を少なくしたうえで、悪臭が発生し難く、かつ、水を吸収し難く型崩れし難い固形燃料を得ることができる。
In addition, the supply amount of the RPF production raw material may be limited. That is, it may be necessary to reduce the proportion of RPF production raw material and increase the proportion of organic waste accordingly. Even in such a case, according to the production method of the present invention, paying attention to the moisture content of the organic waste, and adjusting this to the optimum value, the ratio of the RPF production raw material is reduced, Therefore, it is possible to obtain a solid fuel that is less likely to generate bad odor and hardly absorbs water and does not lose its shape after increasing the proportion of organic waste.
Conversely, when it is necessary to increase the proportion of the RPF production raw material, it can be appropriately handled by the production method of the present invention. That is, paying attention to the moisture content of organic waste and adjusting it to the optimum value, the proportion of RPF production raw material is increased, the proportion of organic waste is reduced accordingly, It is possible to obtain a solid fuel that does not easily generate and that hardly absorbs water and does not lose its shape.

前述の好ましい態様について説明する。前述のように、有機性廃棄物の水分含有率と、前記有機性廃棄物および前記RPF製造原料の合計質量に対する前記有機性廃棄物の質量の割合(質量%)とが、特定の関係式を満たすように調整すると、より悪臭を発生せず、より水を吸収し難く型崩れし難い固形燃料が得られるので好ましい。   The preferred embodiment described above will be described. As described above, the moisture content of the organic waste and the ratio (% by mass) of the mass of the organic waste to the total mass of the organic waste and the raw material for producing the RPF have a specific relational expression. It is preferable to adjust so as to satisfy the condition because a solid fuel that does not generate a more bad odor and hardly absorbs water and does not lose its shape is obtained.

ここで、前記有機性廃棄物の水分含有率をx(質量%)とする。xの測定方法は前述のとおりである。
また、前記有機性廃棄物と前記RPF製造原料との合計質量(ドライベース)に対する前記有機性廃棄物の質量(ドライベース)の割合(質量%)をyとする。
この場合、次に示す式(I)を満たすように、前記有機性廃棄物と前記RPF製造原料との混合比を調整して得た混合原料を用いると、本発明の製造方法によって得られる固形燃料は、より悪臭を発生せず、より水を吸収し難く型崩れし難い固形燃料が得られる。
式(I):y≦−0.0436x2+1.7458x+40.0
Here, the moisture content of the organic waste is assumed to be x (mass%). The measuring method of x is as described above.
Moreover, the ratio (mass%) of the mass (dry base) of the organic waste to the total mass (dry base) of the organic waste and the RPF production raw material is y.
In this case, if the mixed raw material obtained by adjusting the mixing ratio of the organic waste and the RPF manufacturing raw material so as to satisfy the following formula (I) is used, the solid obtained by the manufacturing method of the present invention is used. The fuel does not generate a foul odor, and a solid fuel that hardly absorbs water and does not easily lose its shape can be obtained.
Formula (I): y ≦ −0.0436x 2 + 1.7458x + 40.0

式(I)において、xが0〜45(質量%)、かつ、yが55(質量%)以下であることが好ましい。yは50以下であることより好ましく、35以下であることがより好ましく、30以下であることがさらに好ましい。

<成型工程>
次に、本発明の製造方法が備える成型工程について説明する。
成型工程では、前記混合原料から成型体を得る。
前記混合原料から成型体を得る方法は特に限定されず、例えばRPFを製造する際に適用する従来公知の方法を適用することができる。
具体的には、例えば前記混合原料をブリケットマシンの型に入れ、加熱しながら、または加熱した後に、圧縮加工することで、所望の形状の成型体を得ることができる。ここで加熱は、混合原料が含むプラスチックを軟化する温度(通常130〜160℃程度)で行うことが好ましい。表面における撥水性が向上し、水を接触しても水を吸収し難く型崩れし難い固形燃料が得られるからである。

<Molding process>
Next, the molding process included in the manufacturing method of the present invention will be described.
In the molding step, a molded body is obtained from the mixed raw material.
A method of obtaining a molded body from the mixed raw material is not particularly limited, and for example, a conventionally known method applied when manufacturing RPF can be applied.
Specifically, for example, a molded body having a desired shape can be obtained by putting the mixed raw material into a briquette machine mold and performing compression processing while heating or after heating. Here, the heating is preferably performed at a temperature (usually about 130 to 160 ° C.) that softens the plastic contained in the mixed raw material. This is because the water repellency on the surface is improved, and a solid fuel that hardly absorbs water and does not lose its shape even when it comes into contact with water can be obtained.
Moreover, a molded object can also be obtained from the said mixed raw material using a conventionally well-known extrusion molding machine. Moreover, a molded object can also be obtained from the said mixed raw material using a conventionally well-known pellet mill.

なお、前記混合工程における混合と、前記成型工程における成型とを1つの装置を用いて連続的に行うこともできる。このような場合であっても、本発明の製造方法の範囲内である。   The mixing in the mixing step and the molding in the molding step can be performed continuously using a single device. Even such a case is within the scope of the production method of the present invention.

このような本発明の製造方法によって、前記成型体としての固形燃料を得ることができる。
固形燃料の形状や大きさは特に限定されない。例えば断面直径が3〜40mm(好ましくは6〜30mm)で長手方向の長さが1〜10cm(好ましくは2〜7cm)の円柱状のものが挙げられる。
By such a production method of the present invention, a solid fuel as the molded body can be obtained.
The shape and size of the solid fuel are not particularly limited. For example, a cylindrical shape having a cross-sectional diameter of 3 to 40 mm (preferably 6 to 30 mm) and a length in the longitudinal direction of 1 to 10 cm (preferably 2 to 7 cm) can be used.

The obtained solid fuel subjected to the water absorption treatment is referred to as a “water immersion treatment product”.

次に、得られた固形燃料および水浸漬処理品について、各々15gを分取し、各々を別々の5L容の臭気分析用袋に入れた。そして、袋内に臭気除去処理を施した空気を充填した後、袋を30℃で保存した。24時間後、袋内の硫化水素、脂肪酸、アルデヒドおよびアンモニアの各臭気成分の濃度を検知管を用いて分析した。

なお、臭気強度の評価は、悪臭防止法で事業所の敷地境界線での規制基準として採用されている方法によって行った。
Next, 15 g of each of the obtained solid fuel and water-immersed processed product was collected and placed in a separate 5 L odor analysis bag. Then, after the bag was filled with air subjected to odor removal treatment, the bag was stored at 30 ° C. After 24 hours, the concentration of each odor component of hydrogen sulfide, fatty acid, aldehyde, and ammonia in the bag was analyzed using a detector tube.
Table 1 shows the results of analyzing the concentration of odor components and the evaluation of odor intensity for each of the solid fuel and the water-immersed product. Table 2 shows changes in moisture content and changes in strength when the solid fuel is subjected to water immersion treatment.
The odor intensity was evaluated by a method adopted as a regulation standard at the site boundary line of the office in the Odor Prevention Law.

The calorific value of each solid fuel is 4,900 kcal / kg, which is an organic waste mixed with RPF production raw materials mainly composed of waste plastics in a mass base (dry base) ratio of 8: 2. In addition, the mixture of 7: 3, 6: 4, 5: 5, 4: 6, 3: 7, 2: 8 and 1: 9 is 5,400 kcal / kg and 5,700 kcal / kg, respectively. 6,100 kcal / kg, 6,500 kcal / kg, 6,900 kcal / kg, 7,200 kcal / kg, and 7,600 kcal / kg.

また、石炭の発熱量を同様に分析したところ6,850kcal/kgであったことから、有機性廃棄物に対して、廃プラスチックを主体としたRPF製造原料を質量ベースで3:7の割合で混合して製造した固形燃料と石炭の燃焼性について比較した。それぞれの試料を乳鉢に入れ、粉砕したものを5gずつ秤量し、蒸発皿に入れた。850℃に昇温した電気炉にそれぞれの試料を入れ、時間ごとの重量の変化について測定した。それぞれの試料の燃焼画分の重量変化について比較した結果を図2に示す。   Also, the calorific value of coal was analyzed in the same way, and it was 6,850 kcal / kg. Therefore, the RPF production raw material mainly composed of waste plastic was used at a mass ratio of 3: 7 with respect to organic waste. The combustibility of solid fuel and coal produced by mixing was compared. Each sample was put in a mortar, and 5 g of the pulverized product was weighed and placed in an evaporating dish. Each sample was put in an electric furnace heated to 850 ° C., and the change in weight with time was measured. FIG. 2 shows the result of comparison of the change in weight of the combustion fraction of each sample.

図2により、本発明の製造方法によって、石炭と同等の燃焼性を示す固形燃料を得ることができることを確認できた。このような固形燃料は保有熱量が十分であり、燃焼性は石炭と同様であるため、既設の燃料利用設備によって例えば石炭の代替燃料として利用することもできると考えられる。   From FIG. 2, it was confirmed that a solid fuel having combustibility equivalent to that of coal can be obtained by the production method of the present invention. Such a solid fuel has a sufficient amount of heat and has combustibility similar to that of coal. Therefore, it can be used as an alternative fuel for coal, for example, by existing fuel utilization facilities.
