Description

TECHNICAL FIELD

[0001] The present application belongs to the technical field of harmless treatment of organic solid waste, and particularly relates to an internal heating type thermal conversion device. The present application also provides a thermal conversion method using the internal heating type thermal conversion device. BACKGROUND

[0002] Thermal conversion includes pyrolysis, gasification, etc., wherein pyrolysis is a high-efficiency means for treating organic solid waste (organic solid waste) such as biomass, household garbage, waste plastics, waste rubber, etc., and has advantages such as short treatment period, high conversion efficiency, obvious volume reduction effect, efficient solidification of heavy metals, and avoidance of generation of harmful substances such as dioxin, compared with traditional treatment methods, while simultaneously obtaining solid, liquid and gas products, and further preparing high-value chemicals or fuels. As a solid product, pyrolysis carbon / semi-coke is not easy to burn, and through gasification technology, it can be further converted into high-value gasification gas, which can be used for fuel cell power generation, etc., to improve the resource utilization rate of organic solid waste. Therefore, pyrolysis and gasification are technologies with extremely promising application and promotion prospects in the process of harmless disposal and high-value utilization of organic solid waste.

[0003] A screw reactor is a high-efficiency pyrolysis device, which usually uses wall heating or solid heat carriers for heat exchange, relies on the shaft with spiral blades to rotate in the closed pipe wall to gradually push the raw material forward, and realizes continuous pyrolysis or gasification. Compared with other pyrolysis devices such as fixed bed and fluidized bed, it has advantages such as controllable stages, continuous operation, and low heat loss. However, pure wall heat transfer from the outside to the inside can easily lead to uneven temperature distribution. Even if solid heat carriers are used for auxiliary heat exchange, due to the gradual decrease of the heat storage capacity of the heat carriers themselves, the temperature will gradually decrease along the axial direction of the screw pipe, and it is also difficult to stably maintain high-efficiency reaction. At the same time, for these traditional heat transfer methods, due to the large thermal inertia of the device, the response of the control is very slow, and it is difficult to flexibly control the temperature according to the changes in the composition of the raw material and the reaction stage, and it is impossible to effectively combine the pyrolysis and gasification processes.

[0004] In order to effectively control the temperature and other working conditions, conventional pyrolysis and gasification devices adopt a double-chamber structure. The pyrolysis and gasification devices disclosed in Chinese patent documents CN104789245A and CN105441138A can carry out the pyrolysis and gasification processes of the raw material and the gasification process of the pyrolysis carbon / semi-coke, respectively, through the interconnection of the pyrolysis chamber and the gasification chamber, and through precise control of the temperature and other reaction conditions, high-efficiency pyrolysis and gasification processes can be realized, respectively. For the segmented pyrolysis and gasification device disclosed in Chinese patent document CN107903948A, a plurality of screw pyrolysis and gasification furnaces are connected in series, which is conducive to the temperature control to adapt to the changes in the working conditions of the actual reaction process and improve the pyrolysis and gasification efficiency. However, the design of separating these different reaction chambers will lead to a complex and large device structure, and the operation of multiple rotating parts at high temperature makes it difficult to effectively seal the device, which is not conducive to the popularization and application of the technology.

[0005] In view of the deficiencies of the prior art, it is urgent to develop a new pyrolysis gasification device that can timely respond to and control the pyrolysis and gasification processes to achieve the best working condition under the premise of compact structure and efficient heat transfer.

[0023] The beneficial effects of the above technical scheme of the embodiment of the present application are as follows:

[0024] 1. Fast heating rate and high energy efficiency: Without the heat conduction process from the outside to the inside, the device can well penetrate the device, directly act on the raw material and the heat-generating ball, be directly absorbed by the raw material molecules or the wave-absorbing material to increase the temperature, the heating rate is fast, the thermal gradient is small, the reaction period can be shortened, and the heat loss of other structures of the device is small, so that the energy consumption can be saved.

[0025] 2. Selectivity, heat concentration: Microwave of specific frequency can only be absorbed by special raw material molecules or wave-absorbing materials, and the heating range is concentrated, so it is easy to control the temperature of different reaction stages, and the optimal working conditions of dehydration, pyrolysis, gasification and other processes are realized, and the reaction efficiency is high. In the spiral pyrolysis reactor, the high temperature is concentrated in the reaction section, avoiding high temperature in the feeding area, so that the raw materials are not easy to soften and bond when feeding.

[0026] 3. Small thermal inertia, fast response: Microwave of specific frequency can only heat the heat generating ball composed of raw material molecules or wave-absorbing materials, and the device has little residual heat, so the thermal inertia is small, there is no thermal hysteresis effect, the temperature can be adjusted in time and the device can be started and stopped quickly, the state of the reaction process in different areas can be changed flexibly, and the temperature can be compensated by the heat generating ball, so that the temperature remains stable and the heat is evenly transmitted when the composition of the raw materials changes.

[0027] 4. Swelling and loosening are beneficial to reaction: Microwave can directly heat the internal components of the raw materials, rapidly raise the temperature to generate a large amount of gas, form many small pores, make the raw materials swell and become loose, prevent sticking or accumulation, ensure stable operation of the equipment, and facilitate the full action of the subsequent gasification agent.

[0028] 5. Convenient reaction control and wide raw material adaptability: By controlling the feeding speed of the device, the circulating amount of the heat generating ball, the microwave emission power and frequency of different reaction stages, and the rotating speed of the rotating shaft, the reaction temperature, reaction time and reaction mode of different processes can be flexibly adjusted, so that the pyrolysis and gasification reactions can be controlled according to different raw materials and target products, and efficient conversion can be realized. In addition, microwave can penetrate into the raw materials and heat them evenly, and the requirements for the size and shape of the raw materials are low. At the same time, the collision and friction of the heat generating ball can also break the raw materials, which can reduce the power consumption of the crushing pretreatment.

[0029] 6. Clean emission and high resource utilization rate: Pyrolysis is an oxygen-free process that can produce reducing components such as H2 and CO, and the temperature is relatively low, which can effectively inhibit the generation of harmful substances such as dioxin from the source, and achieve effective dechlorination of the raw materials. At the same time, the water vapor generated in the dehydration stage of the raw materials is further used as a gasification agent to participate in the gasification reaction of the pyrolysis carbon, eliminating harmful components carried by the dehydration process, and producing gasification gas rich in CH4, H2 and CO, thereby improving the resource utilization rate of the raw materials.

[0030] 7. Automatic exhaust, safe operation: The spiral device has a compact space and strong pressure resistance, and the spiral blade with a sealing sheet can effectively seal the spiral pipe to prevent gas overflow, so that the water vapor, pyrolysis gas and gasification gas can directly enter the corresponding guide system through the gas permeable partition when they expand rapidly, realizing automatic exhaust, instead of remaining in the spiral pipe to cause pipe blockage and equipment damage.

[0031] 8. Compact structure, easy to seal: The additional heat exchange, water vapor purification and other auxiliary equipment are omitted, different reaction sections are arranged in the same spiral pipe, the device volume corresponding to a unit of raw material is small, the structure is compact, the space utilization rate is high; in addition, the rotating parts of the device are few and not directly heated, the temperature is lower, which helps to improve the sealing of the whole device.
