Description
1 / 18 DEVICE AND METHOD FOR PRODUCING CEMENT CLINKER THROUGH COMPLETE OXYGEN COMBUSTION TECHNICAL FIELD [1] The disclosure relates to the technical field of building materials and, in particular, relates to a device and method for producing cement clinker through the complete combustion of oxygen. FUNDAMENTALS [2] The cement industry is the world’s third largest emitter of CO2. Its predominant CO2 emissions result from the high energy and resource consumption used in cement production. In China, CO2 emissions from the cement industry are second only to those from the electricity and steel industries. Green and low-carbon technologies applied to the cement industry promote net-zero carbon emissions and play a key role in achieving China’s dual goals of peak carbon emissions and carbon neutrality. [3] It is believed, both domestically and internationally, that the application of carbon capture, utilization and storage technologies is the only way for the cement industry to achieve carbon neutrality. However, air is typically used in the cement industry to support combustion, resulting in a low concentration (20%-30%) of CO2 in the flue gas. Thus, a solvent absorption method must be used to capture CO2, which is high in operational cost. If the combustion support air is replaced with high-purity oxygen and the medium flow and heat transfer characteristics of a kiln are adjusted through flue gas circulation, flue gas with high CO2 concentration can be obtained and the CO2 can be captured through adsorption and distillation. Compared to solvent absorption, the operational cost of adsorption and distillation can be reduced by 47% and the investment cost can be reduced by 35%.Thus, as a highly promising technological approach to capturing CO2, a total oxygen combustion technology has the advantage of producing high-concentration CO2 streams and capturing CO2 more efficiently and economically. Petition 870250022870, dated 03 / 24 / 2025, page 13 / 39 2 / 18 [4] In the prior art, when fuel is burned at a high CO2 concentration, the flame temperature is lower than that of air combustion and the combustion rate is slower. With an increase in O2 concentration, the flame temperature increases rapidly. However, an excessive O2 concentration will lead to an excessively high combustion flame temperature, as well as a risk of deflagration. Furthermore, due to an irrational O2 injection position, O2 and fuel cannot be uniformly mixed, thus forming a partial high temperature zone and a partial low temperature zone. These will influence the efficiency and stability of the combustion reaction. Incorrect injection dosage and an inadequate O2 injection position are the main problems faced by existing total oxygen combustion technology. [5] Since existing total oxygen combustion technology is still flawed in the injection position and O2 injection ratio, a combustion process is unstable and the full use of the advantages of total oxygen combustion is unattainable. In order to solve the above problems, the revelation provides a method for injecting oxygen during total oxygen combustion. By optimizing an O2 injection position and regulating an O2 to high-concentration CO2 combustion gas mixing ratio, combustion stability is improved while carbon capture costs are reduced.

[46] All the fuel mentioned above is coal.
[47] One implementation process of the disclosure is as follows: in a method for producing cement clinker through the complete combustion of Petition 870250022870, dated 03 / 24 / 2025, page 21 / 39 10 / 18 oxygen, production is conducted with a device to produce cement clinker through complete oxygen combustion. The method includes the following steps:
[48] Step 1), oxygen is transported to a gas cooling device through a first oxygen inlet; the circulating combustion gas is transported to the gas cooling device through a carbon dioxide inlet; and the carbon dioxide and oxygen are mixed in the gas cooling device so as to form the first mixed gas, and the first mixed gas is transported to a secondary duct and a tertiary duct separately through a cooling gas outlet.
[49] Step 2), oxygen is transported to the secondary duct through a second oxygen inlet so as to mix with the first mixed gas in the secondary duct, the second mixed gas is formed and the second mixed gas is transported to a rotary kiln through a secondary duct port so as to support combustion in a burner; and the combustion gas in the rotary kiln enters a decomposition furnace through a rotary kiln combustion gas outlet.
[50] Step 3), oxygen is transported to the tertiary duct through a third oxygen inlet so as to mix with the first mixed gas, the third mixed gas is formed and the third mixed gas is transported to the decomposition furnace through a tertiary duct port; and the combustion gas and material in the decomposition furnace are emitted from a decomposition furnace discharge port, the material in the decomposition furnace enters the rotary kiln through a rotary kiln feed port, the combustion gas in the decomposition furnace enters a carbon dioxide collection device through an exhaust gas outlet and the carbon dioxide is collected.
[51] The volume fraction of oxygen in the first gas mixture is 18%-22%. The volume fraction of oxygen in the second gas mixture is 33%-38%. The volume fraction of oxygen in the third gas mixture is 25%-30%. Petition 870250022870, dated 03 / 24 / 2025, p. 22 / 39 11 / 18
[52] Through the device, a concentration of carbon dioxide in the flue gas transported to the carbon dioxide collection device can reach about 80%. Due to the high concentration, an adsorption and distillation method can be used for carbon dioxide recovery. In the previous technique, a CO2 concentration in the flue gas is 20%-30%, and the CO2 is usually captured through a solvent absorption method. The method is suitable for recovering carbon dioxide from flue gases containing low concentration carbon dioxide and is complicated in process and high in investment and operating cost. Adsorption and distillation must separate carbon dioxide from other gases according to the differences between carbon dioxide and other gases in boiling point.Heavy components with a boiling point higher than carbon dioxide are removed with different adsorbents, and light components are extracted by distillation, leaving carbon dioxide with a purity of 99.99% or more. It is estimated that operating and investment costs can be reduced by 45.7% and 36.4%, respectively, by recovering carbon dioxide with an adsorption and distillation apparatus instead of a solvent absorption apparatus.
[53] In the development, oxygen-enriched injection is conducted in the gas cooling device so that O2 can be fully mixed with high CO2 combustion gas before the combustion reaction, the high partial temperature caused by a high partial concentration of O2 is avoided and the stability of a combustion process is improved. If oxygen and combustion gas are not mixed beforehand in the gas cooling device, all the oxygen can mix with the combustion gas in the secondary and tertiary ducts, leading to uneven mixing. In this case, a high partial concentration of oxygen and a high partial temperature can occur, and complete combustion of the fuel is not facilitated. EXAMPLE 2
