Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This invention belongs to the field of hazardous waste incineration treatment application technology, specifically relating to a high-efficiency dry slag discharge and cooling structure. Background Technology
[0002] With the rapid development of global industrialization and urban economies, the amount of hazardous waste generated has increased dramatically, posing serious threats to human health, soil, and water. Therefore, hazardous waste treatment technology is a pressing issue that needs to be addressed. Improper hazardous waste treatment processes not only result in poor effectiveness but also easily cause severe secondary pollution.
[0003] Hazardous waste treatment refers to the process of decomposing harmful substances in hazardous waste into harmless components or converting them into less toxic chemical forms through one or more physical and chemical means. The basic principles of hazardous waste pollution prevention and control technology policies are the reduction, resource recovery, and harmlessness of hazardous waste.
[0004] Incineration is one of the most effective ways to treat hazardous waste, offering the fastest way to reduce its volume while also achieving harmlessness and energy recovery. Currently, hazardous waste disposal commonly employs rotary kiln pyrolysis and two-stage combustion chamber incineration. In this system, the high-temperature ash from the secondary combustion chamber is typically cooled by water before being removed from the water. Because the heat from the ash cannot be effectively recovered, significant heat energy is lost. Furthermore, this method consumes a large amount of water, resulting in high moisture content in the cooled ash, which easily pollutes the environment during temporary storage and transportation. Moreover, the heavy metals and other harmful substances in the ash are easily soluble in water, increasing the cost and complexity of subsequent treatment processes and causing substantial environmental pollution.
[0005] Currently, the hazardous waste treatment industry urgently needs to improve and innovate cooling equipment and technology for high-temperature ash slag in order to reduce the amount of cooled ash slag landfill, reduce wastewater volume and subsequent treatment costs, and greatly reduce the environmental pollution caused by wet slag removal processes.
[0006] Therefore, based on the above problems, the present invention provides a high-efficiency dry slag discharge cooling structure. Summary of the Invention
[0007] Purpose of the invention: The purpose of this invention is to provide a high-efficiency dry slag removal and cooling structure to solve the problems existing in the prior art of hazardous waste treatment, namely, to solve the problems of water waste, high treatment cost, large footprint and environmental pollution of traditional water seal slag removal machines, and to enable efficient utilization of hazardous waste incineration ash.
[0008] Technical Solution: This invention provides a high-efficiency dry slag discharge cooling structure, comprising a main drive shaft, a main drive component, a transmission component, a driven shaft, a driven component, a set of bearings, a set of end covers, an upper housing assembly, a lower housing assembly, and a rotor assembly; the set of bearing seats are respectively disposed within the symmetrical center line end faces of the upper housing assembly and the lower housing assembly, the set of bearings are respectively disposed within the bearing seats, the set of end covers are respectively disposed on the bearing seats, the two ends of the driven shaft are respectively connected to the bearings, the driven component is mounted on one end of the driven shaft, the rotor assembly is mounted on the driven shaft and located within the cavity formed by the upper housing assembly and the lower housing assembly, the main drive component is mounted on the main drive shaft and connected to the driven component through the transmission component; wherein, the driven shaft drives the rotor assembly to rotate.
[0009] In this technical solution, the upper shell assembly includes a feed inlet, an exhaust gas outlet, a discharge outlet, a scraper, and an upper body. The feed inlet and exhaust gas outlet are located on the top of the upper body. The feed inlet is connected to the slag discharge port below the secondary combustion chamber. The high-temperature ash and slag after combustion fall into the upper body through the feed inlet. The exhaust gas outlet is located near the top of the discharge outlet. Medium and low temperature exhaust gas is discharged from the exhaust gas outlet for further treatment. The temperature and volume of the air entering the secondary combustion chamber can be controlled and adjusted. The scraper is installed at the discharge outlet.
[0010] In this technical solution, the lower housing assembly includes an air inlet and a lower body; wherein, a plurality of air inlets are distributed on the outer side of the lower body, and cooling air enters the lower housing through the air inlets.
[0011] In this technical solution, the rotor assembly includes a bushing, a scraper, and a grate. The bushing is mounted on the driven shaft, and the grate is mounted on the bottom of the bushing and rotates synchronously with it. The scraper is mounted vertically on the bushing and at a 90° angle to the grate. The bottom of the rotor assembly and the lower housing assembly form a cold air chamber. Cooling air passes through the grate and exchanges heat with the high-temperature ash and slag falling on the grate. The high-temperature ash and slag are slowly cooled, and the hot air after heat exchange enters the secondary combustion chamber from the feed inlet. At the same time, as the bushing and the grate rotate, the ash and slag also rotate slowly synchronously with the grate. During the slow movement, the ash and slag are continuously cooled by the cooling air. At this time, a discharge port is provided on the side of the upper body, and a scraper is installed at the discharge port. The cooled ash and slag are pushed to the discharge port by the scraper and discharged from the discharge port.
[0012] The high-efficiency dry slag discharge cooling structure of this technical solution also includes an inner sealing ring provided on the connecting surface of the bushing and the grate plate, and an outer sealing ring provided on the connecting surface of the grate plate and the upper body; wherein, the outer sealing ring and the inner sealing ring ensure that the ash and slag will not leak into the lower air chamber, and at the same time, the cooling air will not directly enter the interior of the upper shell assembly without passing through the ash and slag.
[0013] In this technical solution, the outer sealing ring and the inner sealing ring are respectively configured as a circular structure and a semi-circular structure; wherein, the outer sealing ring and the inner sealing ring are made of stainless steel or nitrile rubber, among other things.
[0014] In this technical solution, a set of inlets are provided; wherein, each inlet is configured as a rectangular structure.
[0015] In this technical solution, the scraper includes, but is not limited to, an arc-shaped structure.
[0016] Compared with existing technologies, the beneficial effects of the efficient dry slag removal and cooling structure of the present invention are as follows: 1. The present invention uses air cooling instead of traditional water cooling to cool the high-temperature ash residue from hazardous waste incineration. The ash residue after traditional water cooling has a moisture content of over 40%, while the new dry slag removal method uses air cooling to make the incinerated ash residue dry, saving water resources, avoiding the generation of large amounts of polluted water, reducing the storage, transportation and disposal costs of secondary waste, and reducing the cost of subsequent treatment and transportation of polluted water, thus greatly reducing the environmental pollution caused by wet slag removal processes; 2. The bottom of the grate plate and the lower shell of the dry slag removal and cooling device form a cold air chamber. Cooling air is blown into the cooling device through the cold air chamber and exchanges heat with the high-temperature ash residue falling on the grate plate. The cooling air rises to a high-temperature gas and enters the secondary combustion chamber from the top interface of the ash residue cooling device, thereby realizing heat recovery and replacing part of the fuel in the secondary combustion chamber, thus reducing the amount of fuel used and having significant economic benefits.
