[0002] The principle of microwave heating technology is: when the medium to be heated is placed in a microwave electromagnetic field, the polar molecules and non-polar molecules in the dielectric material will form dipoles or the existing dipoles will be rearranged. In this process, the molecules will swing at a speed of up to hundreds of millions of times per second with the high-frequency alternating electromagnetic field. During this period, it is necessary to overcome the interference and obstruction of the original thermal motion of the molecules and the interaction between molecules.

[0064] In addition, the technical features involved in the different embodiments of the present invention described below can be combined with each other as long as they do not conflict with each other.

[0065] Example 1

[0066] The embodiment of the present invention describes a pyrolysis device, which uses microwave heating to pyrolyze materials, such as Figure 1 , Figure 2 , Figure 3 , Figure 4 , Figure 5 , Figure 6 As shown, the pyrolysis equipment includes a shell 1, a microwave generating device 2, a waveguide protection device 3, and a stirring device 4, wherein the shell 1 is arranged on a frame 5, and a housing cavity 11 for placing materials is provided inside the shell 1, and a shell air inlet 12 is also provided on the shell 1 for introducing a safety gas, and a shell air outlet 13 is provided for discharging waste gas or other gas mixtures generated after the pyrolysis reaction. The materials undergo pyrolysis reaction inside the housing cavity 11, and the microwave generating device 2 transmits microwaves to the inside of the housing cavity 11. Specifically, the microwave generating device 2 includes at least one microwave generator 21 and a wave absorbing component 22, wherein the microwave generator 21 is connected to the housing cavity 11 through a waveguide 23, and the wave absorbing component 22 It is arranged inside the accommodating cavity 11, and the microwaves emitted by the microwave generator 21 are transmitted to the inside of the accommodating cavity 11 through the waveguide 23. The absorbing component 22 receives the microwaves emitted by the microwave generator 21 and generates the heat required for the pyrolysis reaction of the material. During the pyrolysis reaction, the waveguide protection device 3 protects the waveguide 23 to prevent the waveguide 23 from being damaged; the stirring device 4 is fixed on the shell 1, wherein one end of the stirring device 4 extends into the accommodating cavity 11 to stir the material evenly, and the other end is arranged at the outer end of the shell 1 to stir the material evenly, so that the materials are heated evenly, which overcomes the problem of uneven heating between the materials during the processing process, resulting in uneven temperature of the materials at various locations, and then causing hardening.

[0067] In this embodiment, Figure 2 , Figure 3As shown, the waveguide protection device 3 includes a baffle component 31 and an introduction channel 32. The baffle component 31 is arranged on the waveguide 23 to separate the waveguide 23 into a first waveguide 231 and a second waveguide 232. The second waveguide 232 is connected to the accommodating cavity 11. The baffle component 31 plays a role of sealing and protection. The baffle component 31 is arranged between the first waveguide 231 and the second waveguide 232. The introduction channel 32 has an introduction outlet end 321, and the introduction outlet end 321 is arranged close to the baffle component 31. A protection medium is input into the introduction channel 32. The protection medium flowing out of the introduction outlet end 321 of the introduction channel 32 forms a medium protection layer 323 at the baffle component 31. The protection medium is slowly filled in the medium protection layer 323, and then the protection medium An oxidation reaction occurs at the dielectric protective layer 323 with the carbon-containing mixture produced by the pyrolysis reaction to produce carbon dioxide or carbon monoxide, thereby preventing carbon particulate matter from adhering to the waveguide 23 and causing damage to the waveguide 23. Carbon is a wave-absorbing material and will absorb microwaves, thereby affecting the problem of microwaves being transported along the waveguide 23 to the containing cavity 11, thereby improving the efficiency of the pyrolysis reaction of the material. After the protective medium is input into the dielectric protective layer 323, the dielectric protective layer 323 is in a state of slightly positive pressure, thereby preventing the carbon-containing mixture from being transported to the waveguide 23. Specifically, the protective medium can be air, or it can be water vapor or vapor of other non-flammable liquids, wherein the vapor can undergo an oxidation chemical reaction with the carbon particles, and the gas generated after the chemical reaction is discharged from the containing cavity 11 along the gas outlet.

[0068] Specifically, the second waveguide 232 may be surrounded by a waveguide cavity, which is connected to the accommodating cavity. The inlet and outlet ports 321 are arranged inside the waveguide cavity, and a protective medium is input into the second waveguide 232 to achieve the effect of forming a medium protective layer 323 in the waveguide cavity. The oxidation reaction is directly carried out inside the second waveguide 232 to avoid the carbon-containing mixture being transported from the inside of the accommodating cavity into the second waveguide 232.

[0069] In this embodiment, at least one of the above-mentioned introduction channels 32 can be set on the second waveguide 232. The introduction channel 32 is opened on the second waveguide 232, and the protective medium is introduced into the medium protective layer 323 in the second waveguide 232 from the introduction channel 32. The protective medium can be transported to the second waveguide 232 more quickly to undergo an oxidation reaction with the carbon-containing mixture, thereby improving the efficiency of transporting the protective medium. Generally speaking, when the number of introduction channels 32 is large, the protective medium can be quickly channeled to the interior of the second waveguide 232. The operator will set the number of the introduction channels 32 according to specific needs.

[0070] In this embodiment, the above-mentioned barrier component 31 includes two layers of barrier members 311, and a sealed cavity 33 is formed between the two layers of barrier members 311, wherein the sealed cavity 33 has a cavity air inlet 331 and a cavity air outlet 332, and a heat-conducting medium is filled into the interior of the sealed cavity 33 through the cavity air inlet 331, wherein the cavity air outlet 332 is in a closed state. The heat-conducting medium is filled into the above-mentioned sealed cavity 33, on the one hand, to cool the barrier member 311 by utilizing heat exchange, and on the other hand, to detect whether the sealed cavity 33 is in a sealed state. Specifically, the heat-conducting medium can be air, and of course it can also be other non-flammable gases, such as nitrogen.

[0071] In order to detect whether the sealed cavity 33 is in a sealed state, a detector 34 may be provided at the cavity air inlet 331. The detector 34 is used to detect whether the sealed cavity 33 is in a sealed state. When the pressure in the sealed cavity 33 is detected to be 0 Kpa, it indicates that the sealed cavity 33 is not in a sealed state, further indicating that the double-layer baffle 311 has been damaged and needs to be repaired or replaced. When the value on the detector 34 is not 0 Kpa, it indicates that it is in a sealed state. The double-layer baffle 311 in a sealed state can prevent pollutants or others from entering the microwave generator 21 along the waveguide 23, thereby ensuring the normal operation of the pyrolysis equipment. Specifically, the detector 34 may be a barometer.

[0072] In this embodiment, see Figure 2 , Figure 3 A detector 34 may also be provided at the cavity outlet 332. The detector may be a thermometer for measuring the temperature of the barrier component 31. When the temperature of the barrier component 31 rises rapidly, it indicates that the barrier 311 is damaged and needs to be replaced. The damage of the barrier 311 may affect the transmission of microwaves in the waveguide 23, further affecting the normal operation of the pyrolysis reaction. Specifically, the barrier 311 may be a quartz glass plate, or other materials that do not absorb microwaves, such as a barrier 311 made of silicon nitride, mica, or ceramic.

[0073] In this embodiment, in order to not affect the transmission of microwaves in the waveguide 23 and the transmission of the protective medium to the inside of the dielectric protective layer 323, the baffle assembly 31 can be set into two groups, and the two groups of baffle assemblies 31 are alternately placed between the first waveguide 231 and the second waveguide 232, wherein the two groups of baffle assemblies 31 can be driven by a driving mechanism 35 to reciprocate and switch, and the power output end of the driving mechanism 35 is connected to the baffle assembly 31. Specifically, the driving mechanism 35 includes a driving member 351, a fixed arm 352 and a support arm 353, and the baffle assembly 31 is connected to the driving mechanism 35. The fixed arm 352 is fixed on the outer wall of the waveguide 23, one end of the support arm 353 is fixed to one end of the fixed arm 352 away from the outer wall of the waveguide 23, and the other end is connected to the driving member 351. Driven by the driving member 351, the baffle assembly 31 reciprocates relative to the waveguide 23. Specifically, the driving member 351 can be a cylinder member, and of course it can also be a hydraulic cylinder or an electric motor to provide a power source for driving the baffle assembly 31. Of course, the baffle assembly 31 can also be set to three groups or four groups, and the operator can set it according to the specific usage.

[0074] In this embodiment, the waveguide 23 protection device may further include a cooling component 36, which is disposed on the second waveguide 232 for cooling the second waveguide 232, wherein the cooling component 36 may be a water jacket, in which cold water is circulated, and under the action of the cold water, the heat on the second waveguide 232 can be taken away, thereby preventing the temperature of the second waveguide 232 from being too high and affecting the operation of the pyrolysis device, thereby ensuring the normal operation of the pyrolysis device.

[0075] In order to mix the materials evenly and make the materials heated evenly, Figure 4 , Figure 5 , Figure 6 As shown, in this embodiment, the material is stirred by a stirring device 4. Specifically, the stirring device 4 includes a stirring component 41, one end of which extends into the material for stirring the material, and the other end extends outside the shell 1 and is connected to the power output shaft of the drive motor 47 to drive the stirring shaft 411 to rotate, wherein the stirring component 41 is provided with a plurality of heat dissipation channels 42, and coolant is input into the heat dissipation channels 42 to cool the stirring component 41.

[0076] Specifically, if Figure 4 , Figure 5 , Figure 6As shown, the stirring assembly 41 includes a stirring shaft 411 and a fixed tube 412, the stirring shaft 411 is fixed inside the fixed tube 412, and the heat dissipation channel 42 is arranged near the stirring shaft 411. For example, the heat dissipation channel 42 can be arranged inside the stirring shaft 411, and a conveying channel is arranged on both sides between the fixed tube 412 and the stirring shaft 411. Then, the outlet end of the conveying channel is connected with the heat dissipation channel 42, and the coolant is introduced into the conveying channel. After the coolant flows out of the conveying channel, it enters the inside of the heat dissipation channel 42 and exchanges heat with the body of the stirring shaft 411. After the cooling work of the stirring shaft 411 is completed, the coolant is output from the conveying channel on the other side to complete the cooling work. The heat dissipation channel 42 is arranged close to the stirring shaft 411 to increase the cooling area, thereby ensuring that the stirring shaft 411 is in a cooling state during the material stirring process, avoiding thermal expansion and contraction caused by the high temperature of the stirring shaft 411, and solving the problem of uneven heating of the material.

[0077] In this embodiment, Figure 4 , Figure 5 , Figure 6 As shown, the two ends of the stirring shaft 411 extend out of the two ends of the fixed tube 412, and the heat dissipation channel 42 can be arranged in the fixed tube 412 along the length direction of the fixed tube 412. The heat dissipation outlet end 421 and the heat dissipation inlet end 422 of the heat dissipation channel 42 are located outside the fixed tube 412. In this embodiment, the heat dissipation outlet end 421 and the heat dissipation inlet end 422 can be the above-mentioned conveying channel.

[0078] In order to circulate coolant into the channel to cool the stirring shaft 411, in this embodiment, the heat dissipation channel 42 can be configured as a U-shaped channel, and the two ends of the U-shaped channel are the heat dissipation outlet end 421 and the heat dissipation inlet end 422 respectively.

[0079] In this embodiment, Figure 4 , Figure 5 , Figure 6 As shown, the stirring assembly 41 also includes a plurality of connecting shafts 413 detachably connected to the stirring shaft 411, and a plurality of stirring blades 414 are provided on the connecting shaft 413. In specific applications, the stirring blades 414 can be arranged at intervals on the outer peripheral surface of the connecting shaft 413, and are arranged at a predetermined angle to the connecting shaft 413. For example, the stirring blades 414 can be arranged vertically to the connecting shaft 413, which is beneficial to ensure the uniformity of stirring and the balance of the stirring device 4 during rotation.

[0080] Specifically, Figure 4 , Figure 5 , Figure 6As shown, the stirring blade 414 can be connected to the connecting shaft 413 via a flange. When the stirring blade 414 is worn during the stirring process, the stirring blade 414 can be replaced as a whole, which effectively improves the replacement efficiency. In this embodiment, the distance between two adjacent stirring blades 414 is set between 5-500mm. The stirring blade 414 can be set to a square. Of course, it can also be set to a diamond, circle, triangle or spiral shape, and each blade can be set to the same shape or different shapes. The stirring blade 414 can also be cancelled and the connecting shaft 413 can be set to a spiral structure. In actual industrial and mining, the staff makes specific selections and applications according to the working conditions, which will not be elaborated here.

[0081] In this embodiment, the stirring assembly 41 also includes an insulation tube 415, which is disposed in the fixed tube 412, and then the stirring shaft 411 is vertically disposed inside the insulation tube 415. Of course, the insulation tube 415 can also be sheathed on the outside of the fixed tube 412, and the installation method is diverse.

[0082] In this embodiment, the stirring device 4 also includes a temperature testing component 44, which includes a temperature sensor 441. The temperature sensor 441 is arranged inside the stirring shaft 411 along the radial direction of the stirring shaft 411, and / or is arranged on the stirring blade 414. When the temperature sensor 441 is arranged on the stirring blade 414, the temperature sensor 441 can be installed in a sensor protection tube to protect the temperature sensor 441, so as to avoid the temperature sensor 441 being damaged by materials with high temperatures and affecting the accuracy of the temperature measured by the temperature sensor 441. The temperature sensor can be placed on the stirring and crushing blade to avoid the temperature sensor 441 being damaged by particulate materials.

[0083] In this embodiment, the stirring device 4 also includes an auxiliary heat dissipation component 45, which includes an auxiliary heat dissipation pipe 451. The auxiliary heat dissipation pipe 451 can be sleeved at the connection between the insulation pipe 415 and the accommodating cavity 11, and coolant is transported in the auxiliary heat dissipation pipe 451 to cool the insulation pipe 415 exposed to the accommodating cavity 11. Specifically, the connection is made through a bearing structure. After cooling, the temperature of the insulation pipe 415 at the connection and the connection shaft 413 seat and bearing are reduced, ensuring that the stirring shaft 411 can operate in high-temperature equipment for a long time, effectively solving the problem of thermal expansion of the bearing in temperature. Specifically, an open end for transporting coolant can be opened on the tube body of the auxiliary heat dissipation pipe 451, and the coolant is transported to the inside of the auxiliary heat dissipation pipe 451 along the open end to fill the auxiliary heat dissipation pipe 451.

[0084] In this embodiment, multiple groups of stirring components 41 can be set in the above-mentioned accommodating cavity 11, such as two groups, three groups, and four groups. The increase in the number of stirring components 41 can improve the stirring efficiency of the material. The staff will set the corresponding number according to specific needs, wherein each stirring blade 414 is interspersed. By setting more than two groups of stirring devices 4, the stirring and crushing blades between the two groups of stirring devices 4 are used in conjunction with each other, so that the crossed stirring blades 414 can crush the agglomerated medium while stirring the medium.

[0085] In this embodiment, the above-mentioned absorbing component 22 can be a microwave absorption excitation layer 221, which is arranged on the bottom surface of the inner wall of the above-mentioned accommodating cavity 11 for absorbing microwaves, wherein a heat insulation layer 222 can also be arranged between the microwave absorption generation layer and the bottom inner wall of the above-mentioned accommodating cavity 11. Compared with the method of placing the microwave absorption excitation layer 221 directly in the material and entering and exiting with the material, the present invention fixes the microwave absorption generation layer on the inner wall of the accommodating cavity 11, which overcomes the defect that the absorbing component 22 needs to be adjusted out of the material after the pyrolysis reaction of the material is completed, and is easy to use. The provision of the heat insulation layer 222 can avoid the problem of a rapid temperature rise of the shell 1, wherein the connection method between the heat insulation layer 222 and the microwave absorption excitation layer 221 can be:

[0086] The microwave absorption excitation layer 221 is embedded in the upper surface of the thermal insulation layer 222. Of course, the microwave absorption excitation layer 221 can also be fixed to the thermal insulation layer 222 by bolt connection, riveting, welding, etc., wherein the use of connecting parts is eliminated by being embedded in the surface of the thermal insulation layer 222, which can simplify the overall structure of the microwave absorption excitation layer 221 and facilitate the cleaning of the microwave absorption excitation layer 221. There are various connection methods, and the operator can make corresponding choices according to needs, which will not be elaborated here.

[0087] Specifically, the microwave absorption excitation layer 221 can be one or more of silicon carbide, iron oxide, copper oxide, manganese dioxide, barium titanate, and ferrite. When there is more than one microwave absorption excitation layer 221, the material of the microwave absorption excitation layer 221 can be the same or different, which is not required here.

[0088] In this embodiment, the above-mentioned microwave generator 21 can be set to one or more. When it is set to multiple microwave generators 21, in order to avoid mutual interference between the microwave generators 21, the multiple microwave generators 21 need to be spaced apart and set at angles between adjacent ones to ensure uniform field strength distribution inside the accommodating cavity.

[0089] In this embodiment, a material level detector 46 can also be set on the above-mentioned shell 1 to detect the volume of the material before the pyrolysis reaction and the volume and weight of the material after the pyrolysis. When feeding the material, it can avoid adding too much material to cause the material to overflow, or too much material to facilitate the pyrolysis reaction, which is practical.

[0098] Embodiment 4:

[0099] This embodiment provides a microwave pyrolysis device, which is different from the microwave pyrolysis devices provided in Embodiment 1, Embodiment 2, and Embodiment 3 in that: Figure 1 In this embodiment, the microwave pyrolysis equipment further includes a feeding device 7 and a discharging device 8, and the discharging end 71 of the feeding device 7 and the feeding end 81 of the discharging device 8 are respectively connected to the accommodating cavity 11.

[0100] Specifically, the above-mentioned feeding device 7 includes a feeding pipe 72 and a feeding piece 73 arranged along the axial direction of the feeding pipe 72. The feeding pipe 72 has a discharge end 71. The feeding piece 73 can be set as a spiral structure. After the material is put into the feeding pipe 72, the material can be spirally pushed into the interior of the accommodating cavity 11, which is conducive to the feeding of large quantities of materials.

[0101] Specifically, the above-mentioned discharging device 8 includes a discharging pipe 82, which has an inlet end 81. A spiral structure may also be arranged inside the discharging pipe 82.

[0102] The working process of the pyrolysis equipment provided by the present invention is as follows:

[0103] First, the material to be processed is introduced into the containing cavity through the feed pipe, and a microwave pyrolysis reaction is carried out under the microwave emitted by the microwave generator, wherein the electromagnetic energy generated by the microwave generator is initially absorbed by the microwave absorption excitation layer and transmitted to the material. As the temperature in the containing cavity increases, the material is continuously pyrolyzed. During the pyrolysis reaction, the stirring device is turned on and the material is stirred by the stirring device to increase the pyrolysis rate. After the pyrolysis reaction is completed, the mixed combustible gas generated after the pyrolysis reaction is first discharged along the gas outlet, and then the material after the pyrolysis reaction is discharged from the containing cavity.

[0104] Before the material undergoes pyrolysis reaction, an inert gas (such as nitrogen, etc.) is first introduced into the containing cavity along the air inlet of the shell to remove the oxygen in the containing cavity. The oxygen is discharged from the containing cavity along the air outlet of the shell, and then the pyrolysis reaction begins. The combustible gas generated by pyrolysis maintains an oxygen-free environment in the containing cavity, which can ensure the smooth progress of the pyrolysis reaction and avoid internal explosions.
