DETAILED DESCRIPTION

[0020] The embodiments of the present invention are described in detail below with reference to the accompanying drawings.

[0021] like Figs. 1-3 As shown, a pyrolysis carbonization treatment system for sludge comprises a sludge pretreatment device, a multi-stage carbonization furnace 4 and an exhaust gas treatment device which are connected in sequence; a closed internal circulation structure is formed inside the sludge pretreatment device, the multi-stage carbonization furnace 4 and the exhaust gas treatment device, the sludge pretreatment device is provided with a combustion-supporting device 3 for receiving the dried exhaust gas and supplying oxygen to the multi-stage carbonization furnace 4, the multi-stage carbonization furnace 4 has only the combustion-supporting device 3 for supplying oxygen, and the exhaust gas treatment device is provided with a combustion-supporting device 3 for supplying oxygen to the sludge pretreatment device A heating circuit 14 for supplying heat and a steam injector 49 for supplying steam to the multi-stage carbonization furnace 4; the multi-stage carbonization furnace 4 is connected to a drying layer 42, a carbonization layer 43 and an activation layer 44 in sequence from top to bottom, the steam injector 49 is arranged corresponding to the activation layer 44, and a burner 48 for secondary heating of the activation layer 44 is also provided on the outer wall of the multi-stage carbonization furnace 4; the exhaust gas treatment device includes a secondary furnace 5, a waste heat boiler 6, a bag dust collector 7 and a multi-stage washing tower 8 connected in sequence.

[0022] The multi-stage carbonization furnace 4 is an integrated structure. The drying layer 42, the carbonization layer 43 and the activation layer 44 centrally treat the sludge in the multi-stage carbonization furnace 4, so that the sludge is dried, carbonized and activated in sequence under the action of the same multi-stage carbonization furnace 4. The drying layer 42, the carbonization layer 43 and the activation layer 44 arranged in sequence from top to bottom also conform to the way the material moves from top to bottom. The drying layer 42 is located at the top of the multi-stage carbonization furnace 4. The steam generated by the drying layer 42 does not affect the carbonization layer 43 and the activation layer 44 under the action of the rising hot air.

[0023] The water content of sludge is usually as high as 80%-99%. Under the squeezing action of the plate and frame filter press 1, the sludge is partially dehydrated and squeezed into a filter cake structure. A filter cake dragon is provided at the discharge port of the plate and frame filter press 1 for conveying the filter cake to the filter cake silo. The paddle dryer 2 is a double-shaft dryer that uses heat conduction as the main means of heat exchange. It relies on the heat from the hot wall of the double-shaft dryer to contact, stir and squeeze the sludge particles for heat exchange. Under the indirect conduction heating effect of the paddle dryer 2, the paddle dryer 2 does not carry away the heat with air. The heat is used to heat the material. The only heat loss is the heat dissipation to the environment through the insulation layer of the device body.

[0024] The rotating shaft of the paddle dryer 2 is densely arranged with wedge-shaped paddles, and the heat transfer surface of the wedge-shaped paddles has a self-cleaning function. The relative movement of the sludge particles and the wedge-shaped surface produces a scrubbing effect, which can scrub off the adhered materials on the wedge-shaped surface, so that the heat transfer surface is always kept clean during operation. After the sludge is dried by the paddle dryer 2, it is transported to the high-level silo for temporary storage through the pneumatic conveying device.

[0025] The combustion supporting device 3 includes a drying spray tower, a plate condenser and a drying fan connected in sequence. During the drying process of the sludge in the paddle dryer 2, tail gas containing a certain amount of water vapor and sludge dust is generated. The tail gas is sucked by the drying fan, sprayed by the drying spray tower, cooled and dedusted, then cooled and condensed by the plate condenser, and finally enters the combustion system as combustion supporting air to completely solve the pollution problem of indirect drying tail gas.

[0026] The multi-stage carbonization furnace 4 includes a furnace body 41 and a central shaft 45 rotatably arranged in the middle of the furnace body 41. The furnace body 41 is provided with a plurality of furnace beds 46 arranged from top to bottom. The central shaft 45 is provided with rake arms 47 corresponding to the positions of the furnace beds 46. The rake arms 47 are provided with rake teeth 471 for uniformly laying the sludge on the furnace beds 46.

[0027] The bottom of the multi-stage carbonization furnace 4 is provided with a motor for driving the rotation of the central shaft 45. Under the action of the rotation of the central shaft 45, the rake arms 47 and the rake teeth 471 are synchronously rotated, so that the rake teeth 471 are moved on the surface of the furnace bed 46.

[0028] The drying layer 42, the carbonization layer 43 and the activation layer 44 are divided according to the height of the furnace bed 46 from top to bottom. The injector and the burner 48 are arranged corresponding to the position of the furnace bed 46 in the activation layer 44.

[0029] The feed inlet of the multi-stage carbonization furnace 4 is located at the top of the multi-stage carbonization furnace 4. Under the action of the drying layer 42, the carbonization layer 43 and the activation layer 44 arranged from top to bottom, the sludge is moved by the rake teeth 471 in sequence.

[0030] After the sludge is fed, it is uniformly distributed on the surface of the furnace bed 46 under the action of the rake teeth 471 of the rake arms 47. The rake teeth 471 rake the sludge to increase the contact area between the sludge and the furnace bed 46 to promote heat transfer and mass transfer rate.

[0031] The furnace bed 46 is arranged upwardly inclined from the outside to the inside of the furnace body 41. The inside and outside of the plurality of furnace beds 46 from top to bottom form alternatingly arranged discharge ports 461. The rake teeth 471 form a curved structure for moving the sludge to the discharge port 461.

[0032] Under the action of the alternately arranged discharge ports 461, the moving path of the extended sludge in the falling process is prolonged, thereby ensuring the heating of the sludge in the drying layer 42, the carbonization layer 43 and the activation layer 44.

[0033] The drying layer 42, the carbonization layer 43 and the activation layer 44 are all in a heating state of the sludge. Under the action of the burner 48, the temperature at the activation layer 44 is higher than that at the drying layer 42 and the carbonization layer 43, and since the carbonization layer 43 is arranged close to the activation layer 44, the temperature at the drying layer 42, the carbonization layer 43 and the activation layer 44 gradually increases from top to bottom.

[0034] Under the heating action of the drying layer 42, the water remaining in the sludge is separated from the sludge in the form of steam. The dried sludge moves downward into the carbonization layer 43 under the action of the rake teeth 471. At this time, the organic matter in the sludge begins to carbonize in an oxygen-deficient environment, and the low-volatility substances and hydrogen and oxygen elements in the organic matter are removed according to the composition ratio of water, leaving black carbon, thereby carbonizing the sludge. The carbonized sludge moves downward into the activation layer 44 under the action of the rake teeth 471. The temperature in the activation layer 44 is increased to 800-1000℃ under the action of the burner 48. At this time, steam is injected into the activation layer 44, and the steam and the carbon in the carbonized sludge react to produce water gas: C+H2O→CO+H2.

[0035] The steam generated by the drying layer 42 and the paddle dryer 2 is used to inject into the activation layer 44, without the need for additional steam transportation from the outside, thereby ensuring the overall sealing of the multi-stage carbonization furnace 4 and creating conditions for the sealing of the carbonization layer 43 and the activation layer 44.

[0036] Part of the carbon in the carbonized sludge reacts with water vapor to produce carbon monoxide and hydrogen, completing the activation and forming fine pores on the surface, thereby preparing activated carbon. The remaining part is biochar and sludge carbon. The biochar is the sludge that has not reacted in the activation layer 44 after carbonization in the carbonization layer 43, and the sludge carbon is the sludge that has not been carbonized in an oxygen-deficient environment and has not reacted in the activation layer 44.

[0037] The sludge carbon retains part of the organic matter and nutrient elements because it has not been carbonized in an oxygen-deficient environment. The sludge carbon can be used as a soil conditioning agent, and can be mixed into cement as a cement aggregate / additive. The heavy metals in the sludge carbon are solidified by the mineral phase, without the risk of secondary release.

[0038] The biochar is carbonized in the carbonization layer 43, and a carbonized surface is formed on the surface of the biochar, which can adsorb the heavy metals and organic matter in the sludge carbon.

[0039] The activated carbon after regeneration is discharged from the bottom of the multi-stage carbonization furnace 4 through the discharge hole, cooled by the slag cooler, and then transported into the finished product bin through the pneumatic conveying system. The flue gas from the top of the multi-stage carbonization furnace 4 is sent to the tail gas treatment device for heat recovery and pollutant treatment.

[0040] The secondary furnace 5 is connected to the top of the multi-stage carbonization furnace 4, and sufficient air and auxiliary fuel are introduced into the secondary furnace 5 to heat the flue gas to above 850℃ and stay for 2s, so that the volatile matter and pyrolysis gas in the flue gas are completely converted into harmless CO2 and H2O, and harmful substances such as dioxin are destroyed.

[0041] The secondary furnace 5 is connected to the top of the multi-stage carbonization furnace 4, and sufficient air and auxiliary fuel are introduced into the secondary furnace 5 to heat the flue gas to above 850℃ and stay for 2s, so that the volatile matter and pyrolysis gas in the flue gas are completely converted into harmless CO2 and H2O, and harmful substances such as dioxin are destroyed.

[0042] The flue gas after waste heat utilization by the waste heat boiler 6 is cooled to below 200℃, and then enters the bag filter 7 for removal of particulate matter.

[0043] The bag filter 7 adopts a new type of circular structure, and the main part of the filter system of the bag filter 7 adopts a circular design with tangential air inlet and no dead angle. The bag filter 7 includes a flue gas conveying pipeline, a pulse backwashing process, a filtration and dust removal system, a residue collection system, etc.

[0044] The key of the bag filter 7 is a reasonable electrical control system. The pulse jet pipe randomly and sequentially performs pulse backwashing filtration, so that the dust removal effect reaches dust≤10mg / Nm3. At the same time, under normal load during operation, the maximum pressure difference of the backwashing process is maintained below 1.2kpa, and the operation is reliable. The filter bag backwashing ash removal performance is excellent. The bottom of the dust remover is flat, and a rotary scraper system is used for forced ash removal, which can clean the dust at the bottom in real time and avoid dust accumulation.

[0045] The multi-stage washing tower 8 includes a plurality of washing towers connected in sequence. The number of washing towers and the specific washing method are set according to actual conditions. The pollutants in the flue gas are removed through the multi-stage washing tower to meet the emission standard.

[0046] A carbonization treatment method for a sludge pyrolysis carbonization treatment system, based on a sludge pyrolysis carbonization treatment system, comprising the following steps: Step A: the formed filter cake is transported to the paddle dryer 2 through the conveying pipe 11, and the moisture content of the filter cake is reduced to 25%-35% under the conductive heating of the paddle dryer 2, forming a granular structure, and a crushing granulator 13 for processing the powdery sludge into a certain particle shape is arranged on the conveying pipe 11 between the paddle dryer 2 and the multi-stage carbonization furnace 4, and the gas generated by the paddle dryer 2 is purified under the action of the combustion-supporting device 3 and then input into the multi-stage carbonization furnace 4.

[0047] Step B: the formed filter cake is transported to the paddle dryer 2 through the conveying pipe 11, and the moisture content of the filter cake is reduced to 25%-35% under the conductive heating of the paddle dryer 2, forming a granular structure, and a crushing granulator 13 for processing the powdery sludge into a certain particle shape is arranged on the conveying pipe 11 between the paddle dryer 2 and the multi-stage carbonization furnace 4, and the gas generated by the paddle dryer 2 is purified under the action of the combustion-supporting device 3 and then input into the multi-stage carbonization furnace 4, which serves as combustion-supporting air for the multi-stage carbonization furnace 4, and the amount of the gas is effective, ensuring that the organic matter in the sludge begins to carbonize under anoxic conditions when the sludge is in the carbonization layer 43, and the low-volatility substances and hydrogen and oxygen elements in the organic matter are removed according to the composition ratio of water, leaving black carbon, thereby carbonizing the sludge.

[0048] After passing through the paddle dryer 2, the sludge is dried, and the solid and gas are separated, realizing the secondary use of the gas without causing the sludge to overflow.

[0049] The sludge in the present application is dried by the plate-and-frame filter press 1 and the paddle dryer 2, and after being transported through the pipe, the sludge is more compact before entering the multi-stage carbonization furnace 4, and is not easy to break and powderize during the drying process in the subsequent drying layer 42, ensuring that the particle size of the sludge accounts for a large proportion when the sludge enters the carbonization layer 43 and the activation layer 44, and the carbonization yield and product quality during the carbonization and activation process are closer to granular activated carbon.

[0050] A conveying pipe for transporting the sludge is arranged between the paddle dryer 2 and the multi-stage carbonization furnace 4, and a crushing granulator for processing the powdery sludge into a certain particle shape is arranged on the conveying pipe, thereby increasing the particle size of the sludge and improving the flowability of the sludge in the conveying pipe, facilitating the transportation and subsequent processing of the sludge.

[0051] Step C: The granular sludge produced by the crushing granulator 13 is transported to the top of the multi-stage carbonization furnace 4 by the pneumatic conveying device, and the granular sludge entering the multi-stage carbonization furnace 4 successively passes through the drying layer 42, the carbonization layer 43 and the activation layer 44, and the multi-stage carbonization furnace 4 is supplied with oxygen by the combustion-supporting device 3 only, the sludge starts to carbonize in an oxygen-deficient environment after entering the carbonization layer 43, and the carbonized sludge undergoes a water gas reaction under the action of secondary high temperature and steam, wherein the fully reacted sludge forms activated carbon, and the incompletely reacted sludge forms biochar and sludge carbon.

[0052] After the sludge is fully reacted to form activated carbon, air is injected into the activation layer 44 to make the incompletely reacted sludge burn in the activation layer 44, so that no biochar and sludge carbon are formed under the action of complete combustion, and effective incineration of the carbonized sludge is realized.

[0053] The activation layer 44 is provided with a pipeline through which air can be introduced, and the pipeline switch is set according to actual needs, when the pipeline is in a closed state, the carbonized sludge undergoes a water gas reaction under the action of secondary high temperature and steam, wherein the fully reacted sludge forms activated carbon, and the incompletely reacted sludge forms biochar and sludge carbon.

[0054] When the pipeline is in an open state, part of the sludge fully reacts to form activated carbon, and the other sludge is fully incinerated, and the oxygen supply amount of the pipeline is matched according to the total sludge amount.

[0056] Step E: The tail gas is further purified under the action of the bag-type dust collector 7, the multi-stage washing tower and the demister until it is discharged.
