Description

Technical Field

[0001] The invention belongs to the technical field of activated carbon and biomass gas preparation, and in particular relates to a biomass gas and activated carbon co-production device. Background Art

[0002] The more mature existing biomass heat and charcoal cogeneration equipment is the kiln-type biomass heat and charcoal cogeneration furnace, and the other is the horizontal biomass heat and charcoal cogeneration furnace. The kiln-type biomass heat and charcoal cogeneration furnace adopts the production principle of biomass carbonization and distillation, which is an intermittent production, with strong manual labor, long production cycle, large pollution, high system energy consumption and difficult recycling of by-products. The most important problem is that the quality of raw materials is extremely high (the range of available biomass raw materials is narrow, the moisture content and ash content are low, etc.). The advantages are that the quality of biomass charcoal is better (even heating, large carbonization surface area, controllable carbonization time), low one-time investment, and large scale of single project; the horizontal biomass heat and charcoal cogeneration furnace relies on flue gas carbonization in a mechanical converter to analyze the volatiles, and the energy conversion efficiency is low (high-temperature fuel gas and by-products carry Part of the energy is not reused), high energy consumption (the outer cylinder of the horizontal furnace body is rotated by a motor), and large heat loss (high-temperature carbonization increases the temperature difference of heat transfer from the furnace body to the outside world). The main problem is that the quality of biochar cannot be guaranteed (flue gas is used to activate the carbonized biochar), mechanical parts consume a lot of electricity and have a short lifespan, and the output gas contains more tar and ash (medium and low temperature carbonization makes it impossible to completely decompose the biomass tar, and the flue gas contacts the biomass raw materials and takes away a large amount of ash). High-cost purification equipment is required for secondary use. Its advantages are easy installation, simple operation and control, miniaturization and modularization of the equipment, and continuous and stable system production. Summary of the invention

[0030] By adopting the above technical solution, the present invention has the following advantages:

[0031] (1) The present invention is continuously controllable during operation. By adjusting the combustion amount of the low-nitrogen burner, the temperature of the high-temperature flue gas entering the furnace can be set, thereby adjusting the carbonization temperature of the biomass raw material, thereby achieving temperature control. By adjusting the rotation speed of the carbonization activation furnace, the residence time of the biomass raw material in the material channel can be controlled, thereby achieving time control. By adjusting one of the feed amount of the biomass raw material, the rotation speed of the carbonization activation furnace, and the air intake amount of the aerator, the atmosphere in the furnace can be controlled. In addition, by arranging the flue gas channel in the center of the carbonization activation furnace, the heat transfer in the furnace is made more uniform, which is conducive to the stable operation of the carbonization and activation of the biomass raw material.

[0032] (2) In the present invention, the high-temperature flue gas does not directly contact the biomass raw material, which prevents the high-temperature flue gas from carrying away a large amount of ash in the material channel, thereby helping to improve the biochar output rate; and no oxygen is produced during the pyrolysis of the biomass raw material in the material channel, which helps to improve the quality and characteristics of the activated carbon product.

[0033] (3) The biomass gas produced by the present invention can be used for heating low-nitrogen burners for combustion, or it can be stored after detarring. The activated carbon produced can be collected and used in a centralized manner. Therefore, the entire device and system production process is pollution-free to the environment, the by-products can be reused, and the energy utilization rate is high.

[0034] (4) The present invention has fewer structural components, simple system operation and maintenance, safety and stability (in a relatively closed environment and with a stable and reliable temperature inside the furnace), and a long service life (high-temperature resistant structures are provided at high-temperature flue gas locations to reduce damage to the furnace caused by high-temperature flue gas).

[0035] (5) The present invention uses biomass gas generated from biomass raw materials as fuel for the low-nitrogen burner, reducing the use of externally connected fuel gas, and is arranged in the central position of the carbonization and activation furnace through the flue gas channel, which improves the heat transfer in the entire furnace, thereby correspondingly reducing energy consumption. The present invention involves fewer structural components and can also be improved on the existing rotary kiln, thereby reducing costs. The entire process of drying, carbonizing and activating the biomass raw materials is formed in the carbonization and activation furnace, reducing the use of multiple equipment for joint production. The present invention has a compact structure, occupies a small area, and can be miniaturized and modularized.

[0036] (6) In the present invention, the high-temperature flue gas does not directly contact the biomass raw material, and has strong adaptability to the range of biomass raw material types. Compared with the traditional medium and low temperature carbonization, the biomass tar cannot be completely decomposed (the gas channel of the present application is in a high-temperature state, and the high-temperature flue gas contains oxygen, so that a certain degree of combustion will occur in the gas channel, so that the tar in the biomass gas discharged from the material channel can be burned and decomposed), and the flue gas contacts the biomass raw material and takes away a large amount of ash, which requires high-cost purification equipment for secondary utilization.

The appearance of the phrase in various places in the specification does not necessarily refer to the same embodiment, nor is it an independent or alternative embodiment that is mutually exclusive with other embodiments.

[0042] See also Figure 1As shown, the biomass gas and activated carbon co-production device includes a burner head 10, a furnace tail 11 and a carbonization activation furnace 12 transversely arranged between the burner head 10 and the furnace tail 11. The carbonization activation furnace 12 is arranged to be inclined downward by 5 degrees from the furnace tail 11 to the burner head 10, so that the biomass material at the furnace tail 11 has a tendency to move toward the burner head 10. The furnace tail 11 is provided with a feeding device for the biomass raw material to enter, and the burner head 10 is provided with a discharging device. The biomass raw material is added toward the furnace tail 11 through the feeding device. The biomass raw material is carbonized and activated in the carbonization activation furnace 12, and the activated carbon formed after carbonization and activation is discharged from the furnace head 10. The carbonization activation furnace 12 is discharged from the unloading device; wherein, the feeding device includes a feeding bin 13 and an electric gate valve 14; the feeding bin 13 is located above the furnace tail 11 and is connected to the inside of the furnace tail 11; the electric gate valve 14 is located between the feeding bin 13 and the furnace tail 11; the biomass raw materials enter the feeding bin 13 after screening, and then fall into the furnace tail 11 through the opening of the electric gate valve 14; the unloading device includes a unloading hopper 15 and an air lock 16; the unloading hopper 15 is located below the furnace head 10 and is connected to the inside of the furnace head 10; the air lock 16 is installed below the unloading hopper 15 to control the discharge of activated carbon.

[0043] A flue gas channel 17, a fuel gas channel 18 and a material channel 19 are provided in the carbonization activation furnace 12; the flue gas channel 17 is formed in the central position of the cross section of the carbonization activation furnace 12, and extends from one end of the carbonization activation furnace 12 to the other end; the fuel gas channel 18 is arranged on the periphery of the flue gas channel 17, surrounding the flue gas channel 17 therein; the material channel 19 is arranged on the periphery of the fuel gas channel 18, surrounding the fuel gas channel 18 therein; the flue gas channel 17 is in the central position of all channels and is also in the central position of the entire carbonization activation furnace 12. By passing the high-temperature flue gas through the flue gas channel 17 in the carbonization activation furnace 12, the heat transfer in the entire furnace can be made more uniform, and the material channel 19 is arranged at the outermost side of all channels to facilitate the entry of biomass materials and the formation of the overall structure of the carbonization activation furnace 12; one end of the material channel 19 is a feeding end connected to the feeding device, and the other end is a feeding end connected to the feeding device. The unloading device forms a connected discharge end; a drying section, a carbonization section, and an activation section are formed in the material channel 19 from the feed end to the discharge end in sequence; that is, the biomass raw materials entering the material channel 19 from the feed device pass through the drying section, the carbonization section, and the activation section in sequence, and the biomass materials can be heated and dried in the drying section to discharge moisture, and the biomass raw materials can be carbonized in the carbonization section. After the biomass raw materials are pyrolyzed and carbonized, the carbon dioxide and moisture generated in the pyrolysis process are used as activators for the carbon activation process in the subsequent activation section for activation; wherein, in the carbonization section, after the biomass raw materials are carbonized, the products generated move toward the activation section, which is conducive to the movement of the activator toward the activation section, thereby ensuring the stable operation of the activation process; since the high-temperature flue gas enters the direction from the furnace head 10 toward the furnace tail 11, the drying section, the carbonization section, and the activation section can be formed in the material channel 19.

[0044] Between the gas channel 18 and the material channel 19, there is a gas passage 20 for the gas generated by the pyrolysis of the biomass raw materials in the material channel 19 to enter the gas channel 18. The gas passage 20 is distributed in the carbonization section of the material channel 19. The aperture of the gas passage 20 is smaller than the particle size of the generated activated carbon. The gas passage 20 mainly allows the biomass gas generated at high temperature in the material channel 19 to enter the gas channel 18. Among them, the pressure of the biomass gas generated in the material channel 19 is greater than the gas pressure in the gas channel 18, that is, a pressure trend that can generate gas flow is generated from the material channel 19 toward the gas channel 18, thereby reducing the possibility of backflow of the gas in the gas channel 18 to the material channel 19.

[0045] A gas combustion system for delivering high-temperature flue gas into the flue gas channel 17 and a gas collecting system connected to the gas channel 18 are provided on one side of the burner head 10; the high-temperature flue gas generated by the gas combustion system enters the flue gas channel 17, and then heat is transferred in the carbonization activation furnace 12 to increase the temperature in the carbonization activation furnace 12, wherein the gas in the gas combustion system may come from the gas generated in the carbonization activation furnace 12, so that the generated gas enters the gas combustion system for combustion, and the generated high-temperature flue gas enters the flue gas channel 17 again to achieve circulation; and the gas collecting system is for partially collecting the gas discharged from the gas channel 18; thereby, the present invention can obtain activated carbon at the unloading device, and can activate the gas at the discharge end of the gas channel 18, thereby achieving the purpose of co-production of biomass gas and activated carbon.

[0046] Among them, the carbonization activation furnace 12 includes an outer furnace body 21 and an inner furnace body 22 which is arranged coaxially with the outer furnace body 21; the outer furnace body 21 is rotatably arranged outside the inner furnace body 22, and the material channel 19 is formed between the inner circumferential wall of the outer furnace body 21 and the outer circumferential wall of the inner furnace body 22; the two ends of the inner furnace body 22 are fixedly arranged between the furnace tail 11 and the furnace head 10, and the two ends of the outer furnace body 21 are rotatably arranged between the furnace tail 11 and the furnace head 10, and the flue gas channel 17 and the gas channel 18 are formed in the inner furnace body 22. In this way, when the outer furnace body 21 rotates, the biomass raw materials in the material channel 19 can be turned over and through the inclined arrangement of the entire carbonization activation furnace 12, the biomass raw materials can move from the furnace tail 11 toward the furnace head 10; the furnace tail 11, the furnace head 10 and the outer peripheral wall of the outer furnace body 21 are respectively connected by a rotary seal 23 to ensure the sealing performance, and a gear ring 24 is fixedly provided on the outer periphery of the outer furnace body 21, and the gear ring 24 is driven to move by an external motor drive mechanism to rotate the carbonization activation furnace 12.

The sub-cavity 51 is formed in a ring shape between the outer side wall of the furnace tail inner shell 48 and the inner side wall of the furnace tail outer shell 47. The sub-cavity 51 is connected with the feed end of the material channel 19, and the biomass raw materials are received through the main cavity 50, and the biomass raw materials are transmitted toward the material channel 19 through the sub-cavity 51.

[0054] The inner furnace body 22 is fixedly arranged in the inner shell 48 at the furnace tail, and a refractory end 52 is fixedly arranged on the inner bottom wall of the inner shell 48 at the furnace tail. The refractory end 52 at least faces the smoke channel 17 and is larger than the cross-section of the smoke channel 17, thereby reducing the heat transfer of high-temperature smoke to the furnace tail and the damage caused by high temperature.

[0055] In some embodiments, the outer furnace body 21 is composed of an inner refractory layer 53 and an outer insulation layer 54, so that the entire carbonization activation furnace 12 has better insulation capacity and temperature resistance; wherein, the inner layer main body 43 can be made of high temperature resistant material to enhance its high temperature resistance and ensure the stability of the formation of the flue gas channel 17.

[0056] Working principle of the present invention: The moving process of biomass raw materials is that the biomass raw materials in the feed bin 13 enter the tail of the carbonization activation furnace 12 under the control of the electric gate valve 14. Since the carbonization activation furnace 12 is inclined downward by 5 degrees from the tail to the furnace head 10, and the furnace body rotates slowly under the rotation of the gear ring, the biomass raw materials in the material channel 19 slowly move toward the furnace head 10, and when they reach the position of the discharge hopper 15, they are discharged under the control of the air lock.

[0057] When the system is started, the gas output from the natural gas tank 27 enters the low-nitrogen dual-purpose burner and burns to produce high-temperature flue gas. The high-temperature flue gas enters the furnace body through the flue gas channel 17 and radiates heat outward. At the end of the channel, the flue gas seeps through a number of through holes and enters the gas channel 18. The gas generated by the biomass raw material during the carbonization process enters the gas channel 18 through the gas channel 20. After the biomass gas and the flue gas are mixed, a part of them enters the low-nitrogen burner 25. There is a gas regulating valve 55 in front of the burner to control the flow of the gas. A part of the gas passes through the cooling system 35, removes tar, wood vinegar, etc., and then enters the gas cabinet 36 for storage.
