Description

Technical Field

[0001] This invention relates to a spark capture device in the fields of metallurgy and dust removal and environmental protection, and particularly to a barrier packing type spark capture device. Background Technology

[0002] Baghouse dust collectors, as the mainstream technology for industrial flue gas purification, possess the ability to capture fine particles and boast industry-leading dust removal efficiency, playing a crucial role in achieving ultra-low emission goals. However, baghouse dust collectors still face many challenges in certain industrial flue gases. In some metallurgical processes such as sintering, electric arc steelmaking, and aluminum electrolysis, sparks (high-temperature incandescent particles) often accompany the flue gas into the dust collector, easily causing filter bag burn-through and structural damage, which can lead to filter bag failure, excessive emissions, or even fire accidents. In these high-risk scenarios, spark traps should be mandatory auxiliary equipment for baghouse dust collectors.

[0003] Traditional spark traps, such as swirling, baffle, or mesh traps, while achieving some degree of spark capture and separation, have significant drawbacks due to their design principles and structural limitations. Swirling traps are large in size but have a small effective interception area, allowing spark particles to easily pass through the gaps. Baffle or mesh traps, with their fixed pore sizes, cannot adapt to sparks of different sizes, and are particularly prone to secondary escape of sparks in high-speed flue gas; furthermore, their dense arrangement significantly increases system drag. Summary of the Invention

The packing is the internal packing of the hollow sphere. The outer shell of the hollow sphere is made of high-temperature resistant organic material or metal material, and the inside is filled with refractory fluff.

[0011] According to an embodiment of the present invention, an ash discharge hopper is provided at the bottom of the original flue.

[0012] A spark arrestor with a packing material is added to the upper or side of the original flue. The flue gas passes through a clean flue gas inlet damper, a corrugated plate flame arrester, and a hollow ball packing layer to remove sparks, and then returns to the original flue gas through a clean flue gas outlet damper. An original flue gas damper is installed on the original flue gas to switch the flue gas through the pipeline.

[0013] The surface of the corrugated metal plate unit is roughened to increase spark retention.

Detailed Implementation

[0019] The invention will now be further described with reference to the accompanying drawings.

[0020] A spark trapping device with a blocking packing structure, wherein the shell 2 is formed by wall panels, reinforcing ribs, beams and diagonal braces; the shell 2 is installed on the upper or side of the original flue before the bag filter; the shell 2 is provided with a clean flue gas inlet baffle 3, a corrugated plate flame arrester 4, a hollow ball packing layer 5, a soot blower 6, a flow guiding device 7, and a clean flue gas outlet baffle 8; the original flue is provided with a pre-collection plate 1 and an original flue gas baffle 9; and an ash discharge hopper 10 is located at the bottom of the original flue.

[0021] The casing 2 is an n-shaped pipe with bends above the original flue.

[0022] By adjusting the clean flue gas inlet damper 3, the clean flue gas outlet damper 8, and the original flue gas damper 9, the flue gas can be switched through the pipeline, and the spark trap can be disconnected for regular packing maintenance and replacement, as well as internal component inspection and maintenance.

[0023] The corrugated plate fire extinguisher 4 is arranged above the clean flue gas inlet damper 3. The surface of the metal corrugated plate unit is roughened to increase spark retention; the plate thickness is usually 0.5–1.2 mm.

[0024] The corrugated plate is designed with an inclination angle of 45°~60°. The inclination angle is increased for flue gas with more sparks. The corrugated plates are arranged in pairs to form staggered flow channels.

[0025] Hollow sphere packing layer 5 is arranged above corrugated plate fire extinguisher 6. Hollow sphere packing layer 5 consists of packing, support grid and clamping device.

[0026] The filler can be hollow spheres with a diameter of 80-100mm. The outer shell of the hollow spheres is made of high-temperature resistant organic materials or metal.

[0027] Hollow spheres are filled with refractory fluff to improve fire-retardant efficiency. Hollow spheres filled with refractory fluff are selected, with the fluff arranged in layers or spirals.

[0028] Differential pressure sensors are installed before and after the hollow sphere packing layer 5 to monitor the increase in resistance and perform dust removal periodically.

[0029] If the resistance is still higher than the set value after cleaning, the original flue gas damper door 9 can be switched to cut out the spark capture device, and the hollow ball packing can be removed and replaced; the original hollow ball packing can be cleaned and regenerated.

[0030] Soot blowers 6 are installed on the side wall of the spark capture device. Soot blowers 6 are arranged in multiple layers and distributed above the corrugated plate fire extinguisher 4 and the hollow ball packing layer 5.

[0031] The soot blower 6 should preferably be an acoustic soot blower, which consists of a sound generator, a resonant tube and a programmable control device; it should be cleaned at fixed intervals.

[0032] Ash discharge hopper 10 is located at the bottom of the original flue. Ash discharge hopper 10 is equipped with a manual gate valve and an airlock unloading valve. After the sparks are captured, they fall into ash discharge hopper 10 and are transported to the ash silo by pneumatic conveying or scraper conveyor.
