Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This invention relates to the field of waste treatment technology, specifically to a multi-layer combustion system for a medical waste incinerator. Background Technology
[0002] The incinerator can be used for the treatment of medical waste. It has two combustion chambers, a primary chamber and a secondary chamber, employing a two-stage combustion method. The primary chamber burns solids, while the secondary chamber burns gases. Solid waste entering the primary chamber undergoes drying, anaerobic pyrolysis, and complete combustion at a predetermined temperature, effectively controlling the generation of highly toxic gases. The gases produced by incineration and pyrolysis then enter the secondary chamber for complete combustion. The ash produced after incineration is easily carried away by the flue gas, and any unburned harmful substances in the flue gas are further destroyed in the secondary chamber. To ensure the complete decomposition of unburned substances and meet emission requirements, the secondary chamber... The secondary combustion chamber is equipped with a burner for combustion assistance, and the temperature inside the secondary combustion chamber is controlled at 1000-1200 degrees Celsius. To ensure that the flue gas comes into full contact with oxygen at high temperature and that the flue gas is fully decomposed and burned in the furnace, while ensuring that the residence time of the flue gas in the secondary combustion chamber is greater than 2 seconds, a high decomposition rate can be achieved. At the same time, large-diameter dust particles in the flue gas need to fall to the bottom of the secondary combustion chamber for primary dust removal to prevent dust-laden flue gas from being directly discharged and large-diameter dust particles from accumulating and clogging the flue gas passage. Therefore, we provide a multi-layer combustion system for a medical waste incinerator to solve the above problems. Summary of the Invention

Based on the embodiments of the present invention, all other embodiments obtained by those skilled in the art without creative effort are within the scope of protection of the present invention.
[0026] like Figure 1-3 As shown, the present invention provides a technical solution: a multi-layer combustion system for a medical waste incinerator, including a primary combustion chamber 1 and a secondary combustion chamber 2.

[0028] A water circulation heat exchange pipe 4 is installed inside the heat exchange chamber 1 211. The water circulation heat exchange pipe 4 is a spiral pipe and is set to fit the inner side wall of the heat exchange chamber 1 211. The cooling furnace section 21 is provided with external cooling water inlets and outlets connected to the water circulation heat exchange pipe 4. The cooling furnace section 21 is provided with an air inlet 212 connected to the heat exchange chamber 1 211. The heat exchange chamber 1 211, the heat exchange chamber 221 and the heat exchange chamber 3 231 are all connected in sequence through external pipes 5. The combustion furnace section 23 is provided with a hot air outlet 232 connected to the heat exchange chamber 3 231. The hot air outlet 232 is connected to the hot air combustion box 7 through an external hot air pipe 6.
[0029] The hot air combustion box 7 is located inside the combustion furnace section 23 and is positioned above the burner interface 233 of the combustion furnace section 23. The bottom of the hot air combustion box 7 is provided with an air outlet 71, and the hot air combustion box 7 outputs hot air to the center of the combustion furnace section 23 through air outlets on the periphery of the air outlet 71. The top of the hot air combustion box 7 is provided with a double-layer ash-blocking mesh 72, and the upper and lower meshes of the double-layer ash-blocking mesh 72 are staggered. The combustion furnace section 23 is provided with a cleaning and maintenance port 234 at the position corresponding to the ash-blocking mesh 72.
[0030] A variable diameter channel 222 is provided in the heating furnace section 22, and the variable diameter channel 222 narrows from bottom to top. The variable diameter channel 222 is composed of straight channels and trumpet channels arranged alternately, and adjacent straight channels are connected from bottom to top through trumpet channels to narrow their diameter.
[0031] The slag discharge furnace section 24 includes a discharge channel 241 and a collection chamber 242.

The top of the inner wall of the collection chamber 242 is connected to a valve plate 2423 through lifting push rods 2422 arranged longitudinally on both sides. The valve plate 2423 is driven to rise and fall and open and close at the bottom opening of the collection chamber 242 through the lifting push rods 2422. An ash baffle plate 2424 is connected to the top of the inner wall of the collection chamber 242, and the ash baffle plate 2424 separates the lifting push rods 2422 from the outside of the slag collected in the collection chamber 242.
[0032] In use, the air inlet 212, the hot air outlet 232 and the external pipe 5 connect the heat exchange chamber 1 211, the heat exchange chamber 221 and the heat exchange chamber 3 231, so that the air blown in is heated by heat exchange in the cooling furnace section 21, the heating furnace section 22 and the combustion furnace section 23, and the hot air is introduced into the hot air combustion box 7. The hot air combustion box 7 uses the waste heat in the furnace to configure a unique secondary air supply device to provide hot air to the combustion furnace section 23 to assist combustion, ensuring that the flue gas is in full contact with oxygen at high temperature, so that the flue gas is fully decomposed and burned in the furnace.
[0033] The flue gas oxygen content detector 8 is installed, which can adjust the air supply of the air inlet 212 according to the oxygen content of the flue gas at the outlet of the secondary combustion chamber 2, thereby achieving a higher decomposition rate.
[0034] A variable diameter channel 222 is set up to narrow the diameter from bottom to top, which controls the flue gas flow rate and ensures the residence time of the flue gas in the secondary combustion chamber 2.
[0035] Large-diameter dust particles in the flue gas fall into the bottom of the secondary combustion chamber 2 through the emission channel 241 to complete primary dust removal, so as to prevent dust-laden flue gas from being directly discharged. The emission channel 241 extends the length of the slag discharge furnace section 24 and the combustion furnace section 23, and is equipped with a baffle plate 2411 to prevent dust from being affected by the air circulation in the combustion furnace section 23 and causing pollution.
[0036] The lifting push rod 2422 drives the valve plate 2423 to rise and fall. When the secondary combustion chamber 2 is working, the furnace body is closed. After the secondary combustion chamber 2 stops working, the valve plate 2423 is opened to output the slag to the slag discharge port 2421, which is convenient and efficient for slag discharge.
[0037] Dust-blocking net 72 is installed to block dust and prevent dust-laden fumes from being directly discharged, forcing the dust to settle.
[0038] In order to cool down the flue gas quickly and thus avoid the regeneration of harmful gases, a water circulation heat exchange pipe 4 and an air heat exchange chamber are installed in the secondary combustion chamber 2. The high-temperature flue gas exchanges heat with water and air, which causes the flue gas temperature to drop rapidly and enter the subsequent treatment facilities. The cold water is supplied for subsequent use after heat exchange, and the cold air is heated and enters the furnace to assist combustion.
