Description

本発明は、PCB処理施設に設けられるプラズマ溶融炉で処理されるPCB汚染物の前処理に関する。   The present invention relates to the pretreatment of PCB contaminants processed in a plasma melting furnace provided in a PCB processing facility.

従来、不燃性の絶縁体であるPCB(ポリ塩化ビフェニル)の処理方法として、PCB処理施設に設けられるプラズマ溶融炉にPCB汚染物を投入し、PCB汚染物を溶融分解する方法が知られている(例えば、特許文献1参照)。   Conventionally, as a processing method of PCB (polychlorinated biphenyl) which is a noncombustible insulator, a method is known in which PCB contaminants are introduced into a plasma melting furnace provided in a PCB processing facility to melt and decompose the PCB contaminants. (See, for example, Patent Document 1).

特許文献1には、PCB処理施設に搬入された搬入保管容器に入っているPCB汚染物をプラズマ溶融炉に投入する投入用詰替容器に詰替えるPCB汚染物の前処理方法が開示されている。投入用詰替容器に詰替える際、PCB汚染物の種類等に応じて分類することで、投入用詰替容器単位のバッチ投入が可能となりプラズマ溶融炉の安定した運転を可能とすると記載されている。   Patent Document 1 discloses a method of pre-treating PCB contaminants which is refilled into a refilling container for throwing in PCB contaminants contained in a loading storage container carried into a PCB processing facility into a plasma melting furnace. . When repacking into a refilling container for input, classification according to the type of PCB contamination etc. makes it possible to batch input the refill container unit for input, and it is stated that stable operation of the plasma melting furnace is enabled. There is.

特開2010−179239号公報JP, 2010-179239, A

従来のPCB汚染物の前処理方法は、プラズマ溶融炉に投入されるPCB汚染物の総投入量が、投入用詰替容器に詰替えられる前のPCB汚染物の総量と同等である。つまり、プラズマ溶融炉において単位時間当たりに処理できるPCB汚染物の処理量は、投入用詰替容器に詰替える前と変わらず、処理効率の観点から改善の余地がある。   In the conventional method for pretreatment of PCB contaminants, the total amount of PCB contaminants introduced into the plasma melting furnace is equal to the total amount of PCB contaminants before being refilled into the input refill container. That is, the throughput of PCB contaminants that can be treated per unit time in the plasma melting furnace is the same as that before refilling into the input refill container, and there is room for improvement from the viewpoint of processing efficiency.

また、PCB処理施設に搬入される搬入保管容器には、本来PCB処理施設で処理する必要のないPCB濃度の低い部材も含まれているため、搬入保管容器の容積や数量が大きくなってしまい、PCB処理施設へのPCB汚染物の搬入効率が悪い。そこで、プラズマ処理施設へのPCB汚染物の搬入効率を高めると共にプラズマ処理の処理効率を高めることのできるPCB汚染物の減容化方法が望まれている。   In addition, since the storage container transported to the PCB processing facility includes a member with a low concentration of PCB which is not required to be processed in the PCB processing facility, the volume and number of the transport storage container increase. Poor transfer efficiency of PCB contamination to PCB processing facility. Therefore, there is a need for a method for reducing the volume of PCB contaminants that can increase the efficiency of carrying PCB contaminants into the plasma processing facility and can also enhance the processing efficiency of plasma processing.

PCB汚染物の減容化方法は、保管所で保管容器に保管されているPCBで汚染された安定器をPCB処理施設に搬入する前に減容化する方法であって、前記保管所および前記PCB処理施設とは異なる場所に設けられた密閉室の内部で前記安定器を切断し、PCBを含有したコンデンサが含まれるコンデンサ領域と変圧部が含まれる変圧部領域とに分離する切断工程と、前記PCB処理施設に搬入する前に、前記切断工程で分離された前記コンデンサ領域を、詰替容器に詰替える詰替工程と、を備えた点にある。   The method for reducing the volume of PCB contamination is a method of reducing the volume of a PCB-contaminated stabilizer stored in a storage container at a storage location before being carried into a PCB processing facility, which comprises: Cutting the ballast within a closed chamber provided at a location different from the PCB processing facility and separating it into a capacitor area including a capacitor containing a PCB and a transformer area including a transformer; And a re-filling step of re-filling the capacitor area separated in the cutting step into a re-filling container before being carried into the PCB processing facility.

安定器は、PCBが含まれるコンデンサと変圧部との間にアスファルト等の充填材が充填されており、コンデンサ領域と変圧部領域とを容易に分離することができる。そこで、本方法では、安定器を、PCB濃度が高いコンデンサ領域と、PCB濃度が低い変圧部領域とを切断工程で切断して分離している。そして、PCB濃度が高いコンデンサ領域を詰替容器に詰替えている。その結果、この詰替容器をプラズマ処理施設に搬入すれば、プラズマ処理する安定器の総容積が低減されるので、プラズマ処理の処理効率を高めることができる。   The ballast is filled with a filler such as asphalt between the capacitor including the PCB and the transformer, so that the capacitor area and the transformer area can be easily separated. Therefore, in the present method, the ballast is cut and separated in the cutting step from the capacitor area having a high PCB concentration and the transformer area having a low PCB concentration. And the capacitor area with high PCB concentration is refilled into the refill container. As a result, if the refill container is carried into the plasma processing facility, the total volume of the ballast for plasma processing is reduced, and the processing efficiency of the plasma processing can be enhanced.

しかも、プラズマ処理する安定器の総容積を小さくすれば、PCB処理施設に搬入される詰替容器の重量や数量も小さくすることが可能となり、搬入効率を高めることができる。このように、プラズマ処理施設へのPCB汚染物の搬入効率を高めると共にプラズマ処理の処理効率を高めることのできるPCB汚染物の減容化方法が提供できた。   Moreover, if the total volume of the plasma processing ballast is reduced, the weight and number of refill containers carried into the PCB processing facility can be reduced, and the loading efficiency can be enhanced. Thus, it has been possible to provide a method for reducing the volume of PCB contamination that can increase the efficiency of carrying PCB contamination into the plasma processing facility and enhance the processing efficiency of plasma processing.

他の方法は、前記密閉室は、前記保管所の外部に配置された車両に備えられている点にある。   Another method is that the enclosed room is provided in a vehicle located outside the storage.

本方法では、密閉室を保管所の外部に配置された車両に備えている。つまり、車両を保管所に近接した場所に移動させれば、保管容器を密閉室まで速やかに搬出することが可能となるので、保管容器から取り出された安定器の減容化処理効率を高めることができる。また、密閉室を備えた車両であればあらゆる場所に移動できるので、全国に散在する保管所ごとに密閉室を別途設ける必要が無く、利便性が高い。   In the method, the enclosed room is provided to a vehicle located outside the storage. That is, if the vehicle is moved to a place close to the storage, the storage container can be quickly taken out to the closed chamber, so that the volume reduction processing efficiency of the ballast taken out of the storage container can be increased. Can. In addition, since a vehicle provided with an enclosed room can be moved to any place, it is not necessary to separately provide an enclosed room for every storage scattered throughout the country, which is highly convenient.

他の特徴構成は、前記詰替容器は、塩基度調整剤が投入されており、前記PCB処理施設のプラズマ溶融炉に投入可能な形状で構成されている点にある。   Another characteristic configuration is that the refill container is charged with a basicity adjusting agent, and is configured to be able to be charged into a plasma melting furnace of the PCB processing facility.

ところで、プラズマ処理で不燃性物質がスラグ化されるが、融点の高い酸化第二鉄がスラグの流動性を低下させることが知られている。このため、PCB汚染物に塩基度調整剤を添加してスラグの流動性を高める処理が行われる。このとき、プラズマ処理される安定器を減少させているので、塩基度調整剤の添加量も節約することができる。よって、プラズマ溶融すべき総量(安定器+塩基度調整剤)が削減されるので、プラズマ処理で無害化される安定器の処理効率をさらに高めることができる。しかも、詰替容器をプラズマ溶融炉に投入可能な形状で構成すれば、プラズマ処理施設で再度詰替える必要が無く、利便性が高まる。   By the way, although a nonflammable substance is slagged by plasma treatment, it is known that ferric oxide having a high melting point lowers the fluidity of the slag. For this reason, the processing which improves the fluidity of slag is performed by adding a basicity regulator to PCB contaminants. At this time, since the plasma-treated stabilizer is reduced, the amount of addition of the basicity modifier can also be saved. Therefore, the total amount to be plasma-melted (stabilizer + basicity adjusting agent) is reduced, so that the processing efficiency of the detoxified ballast can be further enhanced. Moreover, if the refill container is configured to be able to be charged into the plasma melting furnace, there is no need to refill the plasma processing facility again, and the convenience is enhanced.

他の方法は、前記安定器または前記変圧部領域のPCB濃度を臭気で判定する判定工程をさらに備えている点にある。   Another method is that the method further comprises the step of determining the PCB concentration of the ballast or the transformer area by the odor.

切断する前の安定器や比較的PCB濃度の低い変圧部領域でも、コンデンサに含まれるPCBが漏れ出しているおそれがある。そこで、本方法では、変圧部領域のPCB濃度を臭気で判定している。その結果、安定器や変圧部領域のPCB濃度を速やかに判定することが可能となり、PCB濃度の高い安定器の不必要な切断工程を省略したり、変圧部領域のうちPCB濃度の高い変圧部領域のみをプラズマ処理したりすることで、安定器の減容化処理効率を高めることができる。   The PCB contained in the capacitor may be leaking even in the ballast before cutting and the transformer area relatively low in PCB concentration. Therefore, in the present method, the PCB concentration in the transformer area is determined by the odor. As a result, it is possible to quickly determine the concentration of PCB in the ballast or transformer area, omit unnecessary cutting steps of the ballast with high PCB concentration, or use a transformer with high PCB concentration in the transformer area. Plasma treatment of only the region can increase the volume reduction processing efficiency of the ballast.

他の方法は、前記判定工程でPCB濃度が基準濃度を超過すると判定された前記安定器または前記変圧部領域を前記詰替容器に投入する点にある。   Another method is that the ballast or transformer area, in which it is determined in the determination step that the PCB concentration exceeds the reference concentration, is introduced into the refill container.

本方法では、PCB濃度が基準濃度を超過したと判定された安定器または変圧部領域を詰替容器に投入しているので、高濃度のPCBを漏洩させること無く、適正にプラズマ処理することができる。   In this method, since the ballast or transformer area in which the PCB concentration is judged to have exceeded the reference concentration is put into the refill container, it is possible to perform plasma processing properly without leaking high concentration PCB. it can.

他の方法は、前記判定工程でPCB濃度が基準濃度以下であると判定された前記変圧部領域のPCB濃度を再分析する再分析工程をさらに備え、前記再分析工程においてPCB濃度が基準値を超過した前記変圧部領域を前記詰替容器に投入する点にある。   Another method further comprises a re-analysis step of re-analyzing the PCB concentration of the transformer area in which the PCB concentration is determined to be lower than the reference concentration in the determination step, and the PCB concentration in the re-analysis step The excess transformer area is to be introduced into the refill container.

本方法では、PCB濃度が基準濃度以下であると判定された変圧部領域について、さらにPCB濃度を再分析し、PCB濃度が基準値を超過した変圧部領域を詰替容器に投入している。その結果、高濃度のPCBを確実に漏洩させること無く、適正にプラズマ処理することができる。しかも、臭気でPCB濃度が基準濃度以下であると判定された変圧部領域のみ再分析するので、減容化処理効率の低下を抑制することができる。   In this method, the PCB concentration is further re-analyzed for the transformer area where the PCB concentration is determined to be lower than the reference concentration, and the transformer area where the PCB concentration exceeds the reference value is introduced into the refill container. As a result, the plasma processing can be properly performed without surely leaking the high concentration PCB. In addition, only the transformer area where the PCB concentration is determined to be less than the reference concentration due to odor is re-analyzed, so that it is possible to suppress a decrease in the volume reduction processing efficiency.

以下に、本発明に係るPCB汚染物の減容化方法の実施形態について、図面に基づいて説明する。本実施形態では、PCB汚染物の減容化方法の一例として、プラズマ溶融炉1を用いて安定器2を溶融分解する例を説明する。ただし、以下の実施形態に限定されることなく、その要旨を逸脱しない範囲内で種々の変形が可能である。   Hereinafter, an embodiment of a method for reducing PCB contamination according to the present invention will be described based on the drawings. In the present embodiment, as an example of a method of reducing the volume of PCB contamination, an example in which the ballast 2 is melted and decomposed using the plasma melting furnace 1 will be described. However, without being limited to the following embodiments, various modifications can be made without departing from the scope of the invention.

[プラズマ溶融炉の基本構成]
PCB処理施設Zは、プラズマ溶融炉1を備えている。プラズマ溶融炉1は、PCB汚染物である電気機器(安定器2、トランス、コンデンサ等)、運転廃棄物(作業服、ゴム手袋、ウエス等)、感圧複写紙、汚泥、絶縁油などを、無害化する装置である。
[Basic configuration of plasma melting furnace]
The PCB processing facility Z includes a plasma melting furnace 1. The plasma melting furnace 1 is an electrical device (stabilizer 2, transformer, capacitor, etc.), operation waste (work clothes, rubber gloves, waste, etc.), pressure-sensitive copying paper, sludge, insulating oil, etc. which are PCB contaminants. It is a detoxifying device.

図1に示すように、プラズマ溶融炉1は、PCB汚染物を収容した詰替容器C(例えば、ドラム缶やぺール缶)を投入する投入口11と、PCB汚染物をプラズマ処理して溶融分解する処理部12と、を備えている。投入口11には、室11a内部に転動方向に横置きした詰替容器Cを処理部12に移送する押圧部11b(プッシャー)が形成され、PCB汚染物が溶融分解される時間(例えば30分)が経過した後に、次の詰替容器Cが処理部12に投入される。   As shown in FIG. 1, the plasma melting furnace 1 has a charging port 11 for charging a refill container C (for example, drum cans and pails) containing PCB contaminants, and plasma decomposition of the PCB contaminants for melting and decomposition. And the processing unit 12. A pressure portion 11b (pusher) for transferring the refilling container C placed horizontally in the rolling direction inside the chamber 11a to the processing unit 12 is formed in the inlet 11 and the time during which the PCB contamination is melted and decomposed (for example, 30) After the lapse of a minute), the next refilling container C is put into the processing unit 12.

処理部12はプラズマトーチ12aを有しており、このプラズマトーチ12aに連続的に空気などを送り、電気エネルギーを加えることで、中心温度が15,000度以上であるプラズマアークを発生させる。このとき、炉内温度は約1,400度に維持され、PCBが分解されると共に、金属等の不燃物が溶融してスラグSが生成される。詰替容器CやPCB汚染物が溶融分解された時点で、傾倒部12bによって処理部12を傾倒させ、スラグSがスラグ収容容器13に排出される。   The processing unit 12 has a plasma torch 12a. Air and the like are continuously sent to the plasma torch 12a, and electric energy is applied to generate a plasma arc having a center temperature of 15,000 degrees or more. At this time, the temperature in the furnace is maintained at about 1,400 ° C., the PCB is decomposed, and the non-combustible material such as metal is melted to form slag S. When the refill container C and the PCB contaminants are melted and decomposed, the processing unit 12 is tilted by the tilting unit 12 b and the slag S is discharged to the slag container 13.

なお、PCB処理施設Zのプラズマ溶融炉1の下流側には、恒温チャンバ、バグフィルタ、触媒反応塔、および活性炭槽がこの順で設けられているが、図示を省略する。恒温チャンバは、プラズマ溶融炉1からの発生ガスを処理するに含まれるダイオキシン類を分解するものである。バグフィルタは、微量の有害有機物質や排気中に含まれるHCl等の酸性ガスを吸着または反応除去するものである。触媒反応塔は、酸化チタン等の触媒によって排気中のダイオキシン類を分解すると共に、アンモニアガスを加えることでNOxを分解するものである。活性炭槽は、排気中に有害有機物質が残存していた場合に該有害有機物質を吸着するものである。   Although a constant temperature chamber, a bag filter, a catalytic reaction tower, and an activated carbon tank are provided in this order on the downstream side of the plasma melting furnace 1 of the PCB processing facility Z, the illustration is omitted. The constant temperature chamber is for decomposing dioxins contained in processing the gas generated from the plasma melting furnace 1. The bag filter adsorbs or reacts off a small amount of harmful organic substances and acid gases such as HCl contained in exhaust gas. The catalytic reaction tower decomposes dioxins in the exhaust gas with a catalyst such as titanium oxide and decomposes NOx by adding ammonia gas. The activated carbon tank adsorbs the harmful organic substance when the harmful organic substance remains in the exhaust gas.

[第一実施形態]
以下、第一実施形態について説明する。図1〜図3に示すように、本実施形態に係るPCB汚染物の減容化方法は、保管所X(保管事業所)で保管容器Hに保管されているPCBで汚染された安定器2をPCB処理施設Zに搬入する前に減容化する前処理方法である。このPCB汚染物の減容化方法は、保管所XおよびPCB処理施設Zとは異なる場所に設けられた密閉室Yの内部で安定器2を切断し、PCBを含有したコンデンサ22が含まれるコンデンサ領域2Aと変圧部21が含まれる変圧部領域2B(コンデンサ領域2A以外の領域)とに分離する切断工程と、PCB処理施設Zに搬入する前に、切断工程で分離されたコンデンサ領域2Aを、詰替容器Cに詰替える詰替工程と、を備えている。また、切断前の安定器2または変圧部領域2BのPCB濃度を臭気で判定する判定工程を備えている。なお、本実施形態では保管容器Hと詰替容器Cとが異なる容器で構成されているが、保管容器Hが詰替容器Cと同様の形状である場合は、本実施形態における詰替容器Cとしての保管容器Hにコンデンサ領域2Aを詰替えても良い。
First Embodiment
The first embodiment will be described below. As shown in FIGS. 1 to 3, the method for reducing the volume of PCB contamination according to this embodiment is a ballast 2 contaminated with PCB stored in storage container H at storage location X (storage office). Before carrying it into the PCB processing facility Z. The method for reducing the volume of the PCB contamination is to cut the ballast 2 inside the enclosed room Y provided at a location different from the storage location X and the PCB processing facility Z, and to use a capacitor including the capacitor 22 containing the PCB. The cutting process of separating into the area 2A and the transformation part area 2B (the area other than the capacitor area 2A) including the transformation part 21 and the capacitor area 2A separated in the cutting process before being carried into the PCB processing facility Z And a refilling process for refilling the refill container C. Moreover, the determination process which determines the PCB density | concentration of the ballast 2 before the cutting | disconnection or the transformation part area | region 2B by odor is provided. In the present embodiment, the storage container H and the refilling container C are configured by different containers, but when the storage container H has the same shape as the refilling container C, the refilling container C in the present embodiment is As a storage container H, the condenser area 2A may be refilled.

図1に示すように、保管所Xには、PCB汚染物が入った複数の保管容器Hが保管されている。この保管容器Hには、安定器2、トランス、コンデンサ等の電気機器が主として収容されている。本実施形態では、PCB処理施設Zに搬入する前に、保管容器Hに保管された安定器2を減容化することとしている。これは、プラズマ溶融炉1におけるプラズマ処理効率を高めるために、PCB処理施設Zで処理される安定器2を減容化することが求められているためである。   As shown in FIG. 1, a plurality of storage containers H containing PCB contaminants are stored in the storage location X. The storage container H mainly accommodates an electric device such as a ballast 2, a transformer, and a capacitor. In the present embodiment, the volume of the ballast 2 stored in the storage container H is reduced before being carried into the PCB processing facility Z. This is because, in order to enhance the plasma processing efficiency in the plasma melting furnace 1, it is required to reduce the volume of the ballast 2 processed in the PCB processing facility Z.

図1および図3に示すように、保管容器Hを保管所Xから搬出し、密閉室Yに移動させる。本実施形態における密閉室Yは、保管所Xの外部に配置された車両に固定された密閉コンテナで構成されている。これによって、車両を保管所Xに近接した場所に移動させれば、保管容器Hを密閉室Yまで速やかに搬出することが可能となるので、保管容器Hから取り出された安定器2の減容化処理効率を高めることができる。また、密閉室Yを備えた車両であればあらゆる場所に移動できるので、全国に散在する保管所Xごとに密閉室Yを別途設ける必要が無く、利便性が高い。なお、密閉室Yを固定式に構成して、全国に散在する保管所Xごとに密閉室Yを設けても良い。   As shown in FIGS. 1 and 3, the storage container H is taken out of the storage X and moved to the closed chamber Y. The sealed room Y in the present embodiment is configured of a sealed container fixed to a vehicle disposed outside the storage room X. By this, if the vehicle is moved to a location close to the storage location X, the storage container H can be quickly taken out to the closed chamber Y, so the volume reduction of the ballast 2 taken out from the storage container H Process efficiency can be improved. In addition, since the vehicle provided with the sealed room Y can be moved to any place, there is no need to separately provide the sealed room Y for each storage location X scattered throughout the country, and the convenience is high. The closed chamber Y may be fixed, and the closed chamber Y may be provided for each storage location X scattered throughout the country.

次いで、密閉室Yに移動した保管容器Hから安定器2を取り出して、安定器2をコンデンサ領域2Aと変圧部領域2Bとに区分した上で切断する。このとき、本実施形態では、安定器2の切断位置を特定するために重量差判定を行っても良い。   Then, the ballast 2 is taken out from the storage container H moved to the closed chamber Y, and the ballast 2 is divided into a condenser area 2A and a transformer area 2B and then cut. At this time, in the present embodiment, weight difference determination may be performed to specify the cut position of the ballast 2.

以下に、安定器2の切断工程について説明する。   Below, the cutting process of the ballast 2 is demonstrated.

図2に示すように、安定器2は、磁性物である鉄心やコイルを含む変圧部21と、PCBを絶縁油として含むコンデンサ22とを有している。この安定器2は、変圧部21とコンデンサ22との間に、樹脂やアスファルトといった充填材23が充填されている充填型である。なお、安定器2は、変圧部21が含まれる変圧部領域2Bに、コンデンサ22が含まれるコンデンサ領域2Aが取付けられた外付型であっても良い。   As shown in FIG. 2, the ballast 2 includes a transformer 21 including an iron core and a coil, which are magnetic materials, and a capacitor 22 including a PCB as an insulating oil. The stabilizer 2 is a filling type in which a filler 23 such as resin or asphalt is filled between the transformer 21 and the condenser 22. The ballast 2 may be an external type in which a capacitor area 2A including the capacitor 22 is attached to a transformer area 2B including the transformer 21.

安定器2は、変圧部21とコンデンサ22とが長手方向に沿った両側領域に配置され、変圧部21とコンデンサ22との隙間には、充填材23が充填されている。また、鉄心が含まれる変圧部21はコンデンサ22に比べて大きな重量を有しており、コンデンサ22は、平面視における占有面積が変圧部21に比べて小さく、長手方向に対する中央線Tより一方側に偏って配置されている。   In the ballast 2, the transformer 21 and the capacitor 22 are disposed in both side regions along the longitudinal direction, and the gap between the transformer 21 and the capacitor 22 is filled with the filler 23. Further, transformer 21 including an iron core has a large weight compared to capacitor 22, and capacitor 22 has a smaller occupied area in plan view than transformer 21 and is closer to one side than central line T in the longitudinal direction. It is arranged biased.

そこで、安定器2を密閉室Yに受入れた後、安定器2の中央線Tを境界とした両側領域の重量差に基づいて、コンデンサ領域2Aを区分する重量差判定を行う。具体的には、安定器2の中央線Tに沿った支持部材31(例えば、棒状部材)を配置すれば、重力によって変圧部領域2Bが下降し、これに伴いコンデンサ領域2Aが上昇する。この上昇した領域(重量の小さい側)をコンデンサ領域2Aとして判定する。次いで、変圧部領域2Bとコンデンサ領域2Aとを所定の比率(例えば、1:1や3:2)に設定し、中央線Tまたは中央線Tとコンデンサ22との間の位置で安定器2を切断して、コンデンサ領域2Aと変圧部領域2Bとを仕分けする。これによって、コンデンサ22を誤って切断することが無いので、PCBの漏洩を確実に防止することができる。なお、重量差判定や切断工程は、手動で実施しても良いし、自動で実施しても良い。また、重量差判定は、中央線Tで切断した後に、コンデンサ領域2Aと変圧部領域2Bとの重量を測定し、重量の軽い方をコンデンサ領域2Aと特定しても良く、特に限定されない。   Therefore, after the ballast 2 is received in the closed chamber Y, the weight difference judgment for dividing the capacitor area 2A is performed on the basis of the weight difference between the two side areas bounded by the center line T of the ballast 2. Specifically, if the support member 31 (for example, a rod-like member) is disposed along the center line T of the ballast 2, the transformer portion area 2B descends due to gravity, and the capacitor area 2A rises accordingly. This raised area (the side with a smaller weight) is determined as the capacitor area 2A. Then, transformer portion region 2B and capacitor region 2A are set to a predetermined ratio (for example, 1: 1 or 3: 2), and center line T or ballast 2 is positioned between center line T and capacitor 22. Then, the capacitor area 2A and the transformer area 2B are separated. By this, since the capacitor 22 is not accidentally cut, it is possible to reliably prevent the leakage of the PCB. The weight difference determination and the cutting process may be performed manually or automatically. The weight difference determination may be performed by measuring the weight of the capacitor area 2A and the transformer area 2B after cutting along the center line T, and may identify the lighter one as the capacitor area 2A, and is not particularly limited.

図1および図3に戻って、安定器2のコンデンサ領域2Aを、プラズマ溶融炉1に投入可能な形状(大きさ)で構成された詰替容器Cに詰替え、PCB処理施設Zに搬入する。このとき、詰替容器Cに珪砂(SiO)、生石灰(CaO)、炭酸カルシウム(CaCO)などの塩基度調整剤を加えるのが好ましい。これによって、プラズマ溶融炉1で生成されるスラグSの流動性を高めることができる。また、切断工程によってプラズマ処理される安定器2の重量を減少させているので、塩基度調整剤の添加量も節約することができる。よって、プラズマ溶融すべき総量(安定器2+塩基度調整剤)が削減されるので、プラズマ処理で無害化される安定器2の処理量をさらに高めることができる。なお、密閉室Yで詰替容器Cに塩基度調整剤を添加せずに、PCB処理施設Zで詰替容器Cに塩基度調整剤を添加しても良く、特に限定されない。 Referring back to FIGS. 1 and 3, the condenser region 2A of the ballast 2 is refilled into the refilling container C having a shape (size) that can be introduced into the plasma melting furnace 1, and carried into the PCB processing facility Z . At this time, it is preferable to add a basicity regulator such as silica sand (SiO 2 ), quick lime (CaO), calcium carbonate (CaCO 3 ) to the refill container C. By this, the fluidity of the slag S generated in the plasma melting furnace 1 can be enhanced. Moreover, since the weight of the stabilizer 2 plasma-treated by the cutting process is reduced, the amount of addition of the basicity regulator can be saved. Therefore, the total amount to be plasma-melted (stabilizer 2 + basicity adjusting agent) is reduced, so that the throughput of the stabilizer 2 to be harmlessized by plasma processing can be further increased. The basicity modifier may be added to the refilling container C at the PCB processing facility Z without adding the basicity modifier to the refilling container C in the closed chamber Y, and is not particularly limited.

次いで、PCB処理施設Zにおいて、コンデンサ領域2Aが塩基度調整剤と共に詰込まれた詰替容器Cを、プラズマ溶融炉1でプラズマ処理する。このとき、詰替容器Cをプラズマ溶融炉1に投入可能な形状で構成しているので、PCB処理施設Zで再度詰替える必要が無く、利便性が高い。プラズマ処理で発生したスラグSは、PCB濃度が基準値以下か否かの卒業判定が実行され、無害であると判定されたものは埋立処分や資源として再利用するといった適正処分が行われる。逆に、卒業判定でPCB濃度が基準値をクリアしていない場合は、再度プラズマ処理が行われる。なお、詰替容器CをPCB処理施設Zへ搬入する車両は、密閉室Yを有する車両であっても良いし、詰替容器Cを別の運搬車両に移動させてからPCB処理施設Zへ搬入しても良い。   Next, in the PCB processing facility Z, the refilling container C in which the condenser area 2A is packed with the basicity adjusting agent is plasma-treated by the plasma melting furnace 1. At this time, since the refilling container C is configured to be able to be charged into the plasma melting furnace 1, there is no need to refill it again in the PCB processing facility Z, and the convenience is high. The slag S generated by the plasma processing is subjected to a graduation determination as to whether or not the PCB concentration is below the reference value, and those that are determined to be harmless are properly disposed of, such as landfill disposal and reutilization as resources. Conversely, when the PCB concentration does not clear the reference value in the graduation determination, the plasma processing is performed again. The vehicle for carrying the refill container C into the PCB processing facility Z may be a vehicle having a closed chamber Y, or is transferred to the PCB processing facility Z after moving the refill container C to another transport vehicle. You may.

一方、切断工程で切断された変圧部領域2BはPCB濃度が小さく、本来であればPCB処理施設Zで処理する必要はないが、コンデンサ22から漏れ出したPCBが含まれている場合があるので、判定工程において臭気判定処理が実行される。上述したように、PCBは絶縁油であり、甘い特有の臭気がある。そこで、本実施形態では、油の臭気成分に感応して臭気強度を数値で表す油臭センサを用いて、臭気判定処理を実行する。この油臭センサは、上山智嗣他1名、「水晶振動子式高感度油臭センサによる河川油汚染モニタリング」、学会誌EICA、第8巻、第3号、2003、p16−20に記載のように、目的とする物質に特異的に吸着する感応膜を有している。ここで、臭気判定における変圧部領域2BのPCB濃度は、無害化処理認定施設で焼却処理可能な基準値(5,000mg/kg以下)を臭気強度に換算した基準濃度と比較して判定する。   On the other hand, the transformer area 2B cut in the cutting step has a low concentration of PCB, and it is not necessary to treat it in the PCB processing facility Z in principle, but it may contain PCB leaking from the capacitor 22. The odor determination process is performed in the determination process. As mentioned above, the PCB is an insulating oil and has a sweet specific odor. Therefore, in the present embodiment, the odor determination process is performed using an oil odor sensor that responds to the odor component of oil and expresses the odor intensity as a numerical value. This oil odor sensor is described in Tomoya Ueyama et al., “River oil contamination monitoring with quartz oscillator type high sensitivity oil odor sensor”, Journal of academic journal EICA, Vol. 8, No. 3, 2003, p16-20 In addition, it has a sensitive membrane that adsorbs specifically to the target substance. Here, the PCB concentration of the transformation part region 2B in the odor determination is determined by comparing a reference value (5,000 mg / kg or less) that can be incinerated at the detoxifying treatment certified facility with a reference concentration converted to odor intensity.

臭気判定により、変圧部領域2BのPCB濃度が基準濃度を超過していれば、変圧部領域2Bをコンデンサ領域2Aと共に詰替容器Cに詰替える。その後の工程は、上述したコンデンサ領域2Aの工程と同じであるので、詳細な説明を省略する。一方、変圧部領域2BのPCB濃度が基準濃度以下であれば、変圧部領域2Bを焼却処理する。これによって、PCBが漏れ出ている変圧部領域2Bを判定することが可能となるので、高濃度のPCBを含む変圧部領域2Bを誤って焼却処理してしまうおそれが無く、適正にプラズマ処理することができる。また、安定器2のうちPCB処理施設Zで処理すべき領域が臭気判定により速やかに判定されるので、安定器2の減容化処理効率を高めることができる。   If the PCB concentration in the transformer region 2B exceeds the reference concentration in the odor determination, the transformer region 2B is refilled into the refill container C together with the capacitor region 2A. The subsequent steps are the same as the steps of the above-described capacitor region 2A, so detailed description will be omitted. On the other hand, if the PCB concentration in the transformer region 2B is lower than the reference concentration, the transformer region 2B is incinerated. Since this makes it possible to determine the transformer area 2B where the PCB leaks out, there is no risk of accidentally incinerating the transformer area 2B including the PCB with high concentration, and the plasma process is properly performed. be able to. Moreover, since the area | region which should be processed in the PCB processing facility Z among the ballasts 2 is determined rapidly by odor determination, the volume reduction processing efficiency of the ballasts 2 can be raised.

[第一実施形態の変形例1]
図4に示すように、臭気判定によってPCB濃度が基準値(5,000mg/kg)以下であると判定された変圧部領域2BのPCB濃度を再分析する再分析工程をさらに備えていても良い。具体的には、上述の臭気判定処理において、PCB濃度が基準濃度以下であると判定された変圧部領域2Bを、密閉室Yとは異なる分析場所に搬出する。次いで、再分析工程において、変圧部領域2Bの分析値が基準濃度以下か否かを判定する。ここで、再分析工程は、「低濃度PCB含有廃棄物に関する測定方法(第2版)」(環境省大臣官房廃棄物・リサイクル対策部産業廃棄物課、平成26年9月)に記載された含有量試験、表面拭き取り試験、および表面抽出試験の何れか1つ、又は併用によって実行される。
[Modification 1 of the First Embodiment]
As shown in FIG. 4, a re-analysis step may be provided to re-analyze the PCB concentration of the transformer region 2 </ b> B in which the odor concentration has determined that the PCB concentration is below the reference value (5,000 mg / kg). Specifically, the transformer area 2B determined to have the PCB concentration equal to or lower than the reference concentration in the above-described odor determination process is carried out to an analysis site different from the closed chamber Y. Next, in the re-analysis step, it is determined whether or not the analysis value of the transformer region 2B is less than or equal to the reference concentration. Here, the re-analysis process was described in “Measuring method for low-concentration PCB-containing waste (second edition)” (Ministry of Environment Minister's Secretariat, Office of Waste and Recycling Measures, Industrial Waste Division, September 2014) It is performed by any one of the content test, the surface wiping test, and the surface extraction test, or a combination thereof.

変圧部領域2Bの分析値が基準値以下であれば、焼却処理する。一方、変圧部領域2Bの分析値が基準値を超過していれば、詰替容器Cに詰替える。この詰替容器Cは、上述したコンデンサ領域2Aが詰替えられた詰替容器Cと同じ容器であっても良いし、異なる詰替容器Cに変圧部領域2Bを塩基度調整剤と共に、又は変圧部領域2Bのみを詰替えても良い。次いで、PCB濃度の高い変圧部領域2Bが塩基度調整剤と共に詰込まれた詰替容器CをPCB処理施設Zへ搬入し、プラズマ溶融炉1でプラズマ処理する。本変形例では、再分析工程を備えることで、高濃度のPCBを漏洩させるおそれを確実に無くし、適正にプラズマ処理することができる。しかも、臭気で基準濃度以下であると判定された変圧部領域2Bのみ再分析するので、減容化処理効率の低下を抑制することができる。その他の作用効果は第一実施形態と同様であるので、詳細な説明を省略する。   If the analysis value of transformer area 2B is less than or equal to the reference value, incineration is performed. On the other hand, if the analysis value of the transformer area 2B exceeds the reference value, the container is refilled with the refill container C. The refilling container C may be the same container as the refilling container C in which the above-described capacitor area 2A is refilled, or the transformer portion area 2B may be combined with a basicity adjusting agent in a different refilling container C, or Only the part area 2B may be refilled. Next, the refill container C packed with the PCB concentration high transformation part region 2B together with the basicity adjusting agent is carried into the PCB processing facility Z, and is plasma treated in the plasma melting furnace 1. In this modification, by providing the re-analysis step, it is possible to reliably eliminate the risk of leaking high concentration PCBs and to perform plasma processing properly. In addition, since only the transformer area 2B determined to have the odor or less as the reference concentration or less is reanalyzed, it is possible to suppress a decrease in the volume reduction processing efficiency. The other effects and advantages are the same as in the first embodiment, and thus detailed description will be omitted.

[第一実施形態の変形例2]
図5に示すように、臭気判定によってPCB濃度が基準濃度以下であると判定された変圧部領域2Bを破砕する破砕工程と、破砕後の変圧部領域2Bを磁選する磁選工程とをさらに備えていても良い。具体的には、PCB濃度が基準濃度以下であると判定された変圧部領域を搬送し、破砕機(不図示)を用いて破砕する。次いで、磁力によって磁性物を分離する磁選機(不図示)で、磁性物(鉄等)と非磁性物(樹脂、アルミ、アスファルト等)とを選別する。選別された磁性物は、炭化水素系の溶剤等で洗浄処理される。磁性物はPCB濃度が比較的低いので、洗浄処理によって無害化することができる。次いで、PCB濃度が基準値以下か否かの卒業判定が実行され、無害であると判定されたものは資源として再利用するといった適正処分が行われる。逆に、卒業判定でPCB濃度が基準値をクリアしていない場合は、再度洗浄処理が行われる。このとき、洗浄工程で用いた溶剤は、系内で蒸留することで再利用される。なお、洗浄方法は、超音波洗浄、浸漬洗浄、撹拌洗浄、真空加熱分離などを単独または適宜組み合わせて実行する。
Modification 2 of the First Embodiment
As shown in FIG. 5, it further comprises a crushing step of crushing the transformer portion region 2B determined to have a PCB concentration below the reference concentration by odor determination, and a magnetic separation step of magnetically separating the transformer portion region 2B after crushing. It is good. Specifically, the transformer area in which the PCB concentration is determined to be equal to or lower than the reference concentration is transported and crushed using a crusher (not shown). Next, the magnetic material (iron, etc.) and the non-magnetic material (resin, aluminum, asphalt, etc.) are separated by a magnetic separator (not shown) that separates the magnetic material by magnetic force. The separated magnetic substances are washed with a hydrocarbon solvent or the like. Since the magnetic substance has a relatively low concentration of PCB, it can be detoxified by the cleaning process. Next, a graduation determination as to whether or not the PCB concentration is less than or equal to the reference value is performed, and appropriate disposal is performed such that those determined to be harmless are reused as resources. Conversely, if the PCB concentration does not clear the reference value in the graduation determination, the cleaning process is performed again. At this time, the solvent used in the washing step is reused by distillation in the system. As the cleaning method, ultrasonic cleaning, immersion cleaning, agitation cleaning, vacuum heating and separation, etc. are performed singly or in combination as appropriate.

一方、選別された非磁性物は、PCB濃度が比較的高いので、珪砂(SiO)、生石灰(CaO)、炭酸カルシウム(CaCO)などの塩基度調整剤と共に、又は非磁性物のみを詰替容器Cに詰替え、この詰替容器Cをプラズマ溶融炉1でプラズマ処理を実行する。本変形例2によれば、切断工程によって分離された変圧部領域2Bに含まれる磁性物の容量分だけプラズマ処理されるPCB汚染物が減量される。安定器2は磁性物の容量比が半分以上であるので、1回のプラズマ処理で無害化される安定器2の処理効率が約2倍となる。また、プラズマ処理される鉄分を磁選工程で減少させているので、塩基度調整剤の添加量を節約することができる。その他の作用効果は第一実施形態と同様であるので、詳細な説明を省略する。なお、破砕工程の前に、変形例1の再分析工程を実行しても良く、特に限定されない。 On the other hand, the sorted nonmagnetic substances have a relatively high concentration of PCB, so they can be packed with only nonmagnetic substances together with a basicity adjusting agent such as silica sand (SiO 2 ), quick lime (CaO), calcium carbonate (CaCO 3 ) The refill container C is refilled, and the refill container C is subjected to plasma processing in the plasma melting furnace 1. According to the second modification, PCB contamination to be plasma-treated is reduced by the volume of the magnetic substance contained in the transformer area 2B separated by the cutting process. Since the capacity ratio of the magnetic substance of the ballast 2 is half or more, the processing efficiency of the ballast 2 to be detoxified by one plasma processing is approximately doubled. Further, since the iron to be plasma-treated is reduced in the magnetic separation step, the amount of addition of the basicity regulator can be saved. The other effects and advantages are the same as in the first embodiment, and thus detailed description will be omitted. In addition, the re-analysis process of the modification 1 may be performed before a crushing process, and it is not specifically limited.

図示しないが、PCB汚染物の減容化方法は、磁選工程で磁選された磁性物に付着している樹脂やアスファルトといった不純物を除去する除去工程をさらに備えても良い。この除去工程において、洗浄、篩、風力選別、比重選別、光学選別などが考えられる。また、磁性物に珪砂を接触させて不純物を除去することが考えられる。具体的には、磁性物と珪砂とを所定の容器に収容して、この容器に振動を与えたり、磁性物に珪砂を吹付けたりして、磁性物に付着している不純物を剥離させる。このとき、洗浄、篩、風力選別、比重選別、光学選別などを併用しても良い。また、除去工程で使用した珪砂を塩基度調整剤として再利用しても良い。なお、除去工程は、珪砂を用いずに他の粒子で磁性物をサンドブラストしても良いし、化学処理で不純物を除去しても良く、特に限定されない。   Although not shown in the drawings, the method for reducing the volume of PCB contamination may further include a removal step of removing impurities such as resin and asphalt adhering to the magnetic substance magnetically separated in the magnetic separation step. In this removal step, washing, sieving, wind sorting, specific gravity sorting, optical sorting, etc. can be considered. Further, it is conceivable to remove the impurities by bringing silica sand into contact with the magnetic substance. Specifically, the magnetic substance and the silica sand are accommodated in a predetermined container, and the container is vibrated or the silicon sand is sprayed to the magnetic substance to separate the impurities attached to the magnetic substance. At this time, washing, sieving, wind force sorting, specific gravity sorting, optical sorting, etc. may be used in combination. In addition, the silica sand used in the removal step may be reused as a basicity regulator. In the removal step, the magnetic substance may be sandblasted with other particles without using silica sand, or impurities may be removed by chemical treatment, and it is not particularly limited.

[第一実施形態の変形例3]
図6に示すように、安定器2を切断する前に、安定器2のPCB濃度を臭気で判定する事前判定工程をさらに備えていても良い。この事前判定工程は、保管容器Hから取り出された安定器2について臭気判定を実行し、PCBの漏洩可能性が高い安定器2とPCBの漏洩可能性が低い安定器2とに分類する工程である。具体的には、上述した油臭センサを用いて、安定器2のPCB濃度を事前判定基準濃度(基準濃度の一例)と比較して判定する。この事前判定基準濃度は、上述したような焼却処理可能な基準値(5,000mg/kg以下)を臭気強度に換算した基準濃度であっても良いし、基準濃度に安全率(例えば1.2)を乗算した値としても良い。
[Modification 3 of the first embodiment]
As shown in FIG. 6, it may further include a predetermination step of determining the PCB concentration of the ballast 2 by the odor before the ballast 2 is cut. This pre-judging step is a step of executing odor judgment on the ballast 2 taken out of the storage container H and classifying it into the ballast 2 where the possibility of leakage of the PCB is high and the ballast 2 where the possibility of leakage of the PCB is low. is there. Specifically, the above-described oil odor sensor is used to determine the PCB concentration of the ballast 2 in comparison with the prior determination reference concentration (an example of the reference concentration). This prior determination reference concentration may be a reference concentration obtained by converting the above-mentioned incinerated standard value (5,000 mg / kg or less) into odor intensity, or a safety factor (e.g. 1.2) at the reference concentration. It may be a value multiplied by.

事前判定工程により、安定器2のPCB濃度が事前判定基準濃度を超過していれば、変圧部領域2Bまで汚染が拡がっている可能性が高いため、安定器2を詰替容器Cに詰替えてPCB処理施設Zに搬入する。これによって、不必要な切断工程を省略することができると共に、PCBの汚染拡大を招く切断工程を回避することができる。一方、安定器2のPCB濃度が事前判定基準濃度以下であれば、上述した切断工程に移行する。以降の工程や作用効果は第一実施形態と同様であるので、詳細な説明を省略する。   If the PCB concentration of the ballast 2 exceeds the prior criterion concentration in the pre-judging process, there is a high possibility that the contamination has spread to the transformer area 2B, so the ballast 2 is refilled with the refill container C To the PCB processing facility Z. This makes it possible to eliminate unnecessary cutting steps and to avoid cutting steps that lead to increased contamination of the PCB. On the other hand, if the PCB concentration of the ballast 2 is equal to or less than the prior determination reference concentration, the process proceeds to the above-described cutting step. The subsequent steps and effects are the same as in the first embodiment, and thus detailed description will be omitted.

[第二実施形態]
図7に示すように、本実施形態におけるPCB汚染物の減容化方法は、保管所X(保管事業所)およびPCB処理施設Zとは異なる場所に設けられた密閉室Yの内部で安定器2を切断し、PCBを含有したコンデンサ22が含まれるコンデンサ領域2Aと変圧部21が含まれる変圧部領域2B(コンデンサ領域2A以外の領域)とに分離する切断工程と、PCB処理施設Zに搬入する前に、切断工程で分離されたコンデンサ領域2Aを、詰替容器Cに詰替える詰替工程と、を備えている。また、変圧部領域2Bを洗浄する洗浄工程と、変圧部領域2BのPCB濃度を分析する分析工程とを備えている。なお、切断工程と詰替工程とは、上述した第一実施形態と同様であるので詳細な説明は省略する。
Second Embodiment
As shown in FIG. 7, in the method for reducing the volume of PCB contaminants in the present embodiment, a stabilizer is provided inside the enclosed room Y provided at a location different from the storage location X (storage location) and the PCB processing facility Z. Cutting into 2 and cutting into the capacitor area 2A including the capacitor 22 containing the PCB and the transformer area 2B (area other than the capacitor area 2A) including the transformer 21 and carrying into the PCB processing facility Z And a re-filling step for re-filling the condenser area 2A separated in the cutting step into the re-filling container C. Moreover, the cleaning process which wash | cleans transformation part area | region 2B, and the analysis process which analyzes PCB density | concentration of transformation part area | region 2B are provided. In addition, since a cutting process and a refilling process are the same as that of a first embodiment mentioned above, detailed explanation is omitted.

洗浄工程では、変圧部領域2Bを炭化水素系の溶剤等で洗浄処理する。洗浄方法は、超音波洗浄、浸漬洗浄、撹拌洗浄、真空加熱分離などを単独または適宜組み合わせて実行する。なお、洗浄工程で用いた溶剤は、系内で蒸留することで再利用しても良い。次いで、洗浄された変圧部領域2Bを密閉室Yとは異なる分析場所に搬出する。そして、分析工程において、変圧部領域2Bの分析値が基準値(5,000mg/kg)以下か否かを判定する。この分析工程は、上述した第一実施形態の変形例1の再分析工程と同様の方法であるので、詳細な説明を省略する。本実施形態では臭気による判定工程を省略しているので迅速性に欠けるが、安定器2を安価に減容化できる点で有益である。   In the cleaning step, the transformer area 2B is cleaned with a hydrocarbon solvent or the like. As the cleaning method, ultrasonic cleaning, immersion cleaning, agitation cleaning, vacuum heating separation, etc. are carried out alone or in combination. The solvent used in the washing step may be reused by distillation in the system. Then, the cleaned transformer area 2B is carried out to an analysis site different from the closed chamber Y. Then, in the analysis step, it is determined whether or not the analysis value of the transformer area 2B is less than or equal to the reference value (5,000 mg / kg). Since this analysis step is the same method as the re-analysis step of the first modification of the first embodiment described above, detailed description will be omitted. In the present embodiment, since the determination process based on the odor is omitted, it lacks in quickness, but it is advantageous in that the volume of the ballast 2 can be reduced at low cost.

(2) In the embodiment described above, the storage container H is carried out of the storage location X and moved to the closed chamber Y. However, the storage container H is taken out of the storage container H at the storage location X and predetermined safety measures are taken. Then, the ballast 2 itself may be moved to the closed chamber Y.
(3) In the judgment process based on odor and the prior judgment process, the odor of the transformer area 2B was determined using an oil odor sensor, but the odor may be determined using another device, and a predetermined safety measure is taken. Then, the odor may be determined visually or by olfactory sense, and the method of odor determination is not particularly limited.
(4) Instead of the cutting step, the ballast 2 may be separated into the capacitor 22 and other regions by disassembling the ballast 2 with a tool or the like.
