Technical Field
[0001] The present invention relates to the technical field of grain drying, and particularly to a biomass self-driven pyrolysis heating method and equipment for grain drying. Background Art
[0002] In the process of grain production and storage, the drying link is crucial for ensuring grain quality and extending the storage time. Traditional grain drying methods mostly rely on fossil energy, which not only has high costs but also causes environmental pollution problems. With the enhancement of environmental awareness and the promotion of the concept of sustainable development, the development and utilization of clean energy grain drying equipment has become an inevitable trend in the industry.
[0003] Currently, grain drying mainly uses natural gas for heating or a hot blast stove heating process that is only applicable to biomass pellet fuels. The fuel is single and the cost is high. The adoption of biomass pyrolysis gasification heating technology and equipment, using biomass solid wastes such as straw and garden greening waste as fuels, promotes the circular, low-carbon, clean, and efficient reuse of solid waste resources, providing a new solution for the grain drying field. Therefore, those skilled in the art provide a biomass self-driven pyrolysis heating method and equipment for grain drying to solve the problems raised in the above background art. Summary of the Invention

[0005] To achieve the above purpose, the present invention adopts the following technical solutions: A biomass self-driven pyrolysis heating method for grain drying, comprising the following steps: S1: The biomass is broken and placed into the feeding hopper, and then sent into the self-driven biomass pyrolysis furnace through the feeding conveying device. Then, it is ignited through the ignition door in sequence, and the oxygen content in the self-driven biomass pyrolysis furnace is controlled by the primary air blower. With the help of the calorific value of the biomass itself, its self-driven pyrolysis gasification is realized, and the ash residue after the reaction is discharged through the mechanical ash auger. S2: The combustible gas generated during the biomass gasification process is introduced into the combustion chamber and fully burned by blowing air through the secondary air blower. After removing organic pollutants such as tar, the generated high-temperature hot flue gas is introduced into the air mixing chamber, and cold air is supplemented by the air distribution valves on both sides of the air mixing chamber to make the high-temperature hot flue gas and cold air fully mixed, and the hot air temperature after air distribution is controlled at 50 - 65 °C. S3: The hot air after air distribution is directly introduced into the grain dryer through the air duct for grain drying, and then discharged up to standard after waste gas treatment.
[0006] As a further solution of the present invention, in the step S1, the temperature of biomass pyrolysis and gasification should be controlled at 650-800 °C, and the negative pressure in the furnace should be controlled at -50 - -200 Pa; in the step S2, the temperature of the combustion chamber is not lower than 850 °C.
[0007] As a further solution of the present invention, the feeding and conveying device, the primary fan, the secondary fan, and the air distribution valve are all controlled by frequency conversion. Temperature monitoring probes are provided at the outlets of the self-driven biomass pyrolysis furnace, the combustion chamber, the air distribution chamber, and the inlet duct of the grain dryer. The opening degree of the air distribution valve and the temperature of the outlet duct of the air distribution chamber are automatically linked and controlled, and the feeding and conveying device is linked and controlled with the temperature inside the self-driven biomass pyrolysis furnace.
[0008] A biomass self-driven pyrolysis heating equipment for grain drying mainly includes units such as a feeding hopper, a feeding and conveying device, a self-driven biomass pyrolysis furnace, a combustion-gas distribution integrated device, an air duct, and a control box. As a further solution of the present invention, the feeding hopper, the feeding and conveying device, and the self-driven biomass pyrolysis furnace are connected end to end in sequence. The flue gas pipeline of the self-driven biomass pyrolysis furnace is inserted into the combustion-gas distribution integrated device, and the air duct is connected to the top of the combustion-gas distribution integrated device.
[0009] As a further solution of the present invention, the self-driven biomass pyrolysis furnace adopts a reciprocating grate furnace structure form, and an ignition door is provided on its side wall.
[0010] As a further solution of the present invention, the combustion-gas distribution integrated device includes a combustion chamber and an air distribution chamber. A porous baffle is used to separate the combustion chamber and the air distribution chamber in the middle, and the air duct is connected to the top of the air distribution chamber.
[0011] As a further solution of the present invention, a dust cleaning port is provided at the bottom of the combustion chamber.
[0012] As a further solution of the present invention, a plurality of air holes are provided on the porous baffle. The shape of the air holes is square, and the total area of the opened air holes accounts for 20-40% of the area of the porous baffle.
[0013] As a further solution of the present invention, two groups of air distribution valves are symmetrically arranged on both sides of the air distribution chamber, and one of the groups is manually controlled.
[0014] The beneficial effects of the present invention are: The present invention adopts the biomass pyrolysis gasification combustion heating technology process. After the combustible pyrolysis gas generated by biomass gasification is fully burned and air is supplied, it is directly used for drying grains. Compared with the traditional indirect heat exchange air supply process for grain drying, the heat utilization efficiency is higher. In addition, the main furnace of the new equipment adopts a reciprocating grate furnace structure form, which can be applied to various biomass raw materials such as rice / wheat straw, garden greening waste, waste wood chips, and biomass pellets, with a wider raw material adaptability, which is conducive to realizing the resource utilization of organic solid waste. The equipment uses the self-heating value of biomass raw materials for self-driven pyrolysis heating, without the need to add auxiliary fossil fuels such as diesel and natural gas, which is conducive to reducing the raw material cost and operation cost of grain drying.
