[0003] The pyrolysis reaction of waste plastics is an endothermic reaction. Although the heat energy utilization process of the pyrolysis gas and pyrolysis oil produced by pyrolysis can meet the heat required for the pyrolysis of waste plastics and achieve the energy self-balance of the pyrolysis process, due to the limitation of the pyrolysis atmosphere and the influence of the moisture content, the pyrolysis reaction often adopts an indirect heating method, which has low heat transfer efficiency and high energy consumption. At the same time, the halogens in waste plastics are usually discharged in the form of hydrogen halide during pyrolysis, and their acidity is likely to cause equipment corrosion and also has a certain impact on the quality of pyrolysis oil. Therefore, how to solve the dehalogenation and energy consumption reduction in the pyrolysis process of waste plastics has become a difficult problem in the industry.

[0030] As Figure 1 shown, a step-by-step waste plastic pyrolysis oil production system integrating drying and liquefaction dehalogenation includes a pretreatment device 2, a drying device 3, a liquefaction dehalogenation device 4, and a pyrolysis device 5 connected in sequence.

[0031] Waste plastics 1 enter the pretreatment device 2, are crushed to form crushed plastics with a size of less than 100 mm, and enter the drying device 3 after iron removal. The drying device 3 is of direct heating form. The waste plastics 1 directly contact and exchange heat with the hot flue gas 13 in the drying device 3. The dried moisture is discharged from the drying device 3 together with the hot flue gas 13 and enters the flue gas purification device 11. The dried waste plastics 1 are discharged from the drying device 3 and enter the liquefaction dehalogenation device 4. The waste plastics 1 stay in the drying device 3 for 15 - 60 min, and the drying device 3 uses hot flue gas 13 with a temperature below 250 °C to dry the waste plastics 1.

[0032] The dried waste plastics 1 are heated and melted by the hot flue gas 13 in the liquefaction dehalogenation device 4 to form paste-like liquefied plastics. The liquefied plastics are discharged from the liquefaction dehalogenation device 4 and enter the pyrolysis device 5. The liquefaction dehalogenation device 4 in this embodiment is a liquefaction kettle. In other embodiments, the liquefaction dehalogenation device 4 can be a rotary kiln or a liquefaction screw reactor. In the liquefaction dehalogenation device 4, the waste plastics 1 are heated to 250 - 350 °C by the hot flue gas 13, and the waste plastics 1 stay in the liquefaction dehalogenation device 4 for 30 - 60 min. During the liquefaction process, the halogens in the waste plastics 1 are mainly discharged in the form of hydrogen halide. At the same time, a small part of the waste plastics 1 pyrolyze to generate pyrolysis gas. The pyrolysis gas with hydrogen halide enters the deacidification device 10. The deacidification device 10 adopts a dry deacidification form, absorbs acidic gases by adding alkaline substances, and the pyrolysis gas after deacidification enters the hot blast stove 8 to burn out and form hot flue gas 13. The alkaline substance in this embodiment is limestone. In other embodiments, the alkaline substance can be one or a mixture of CaO or CaCO3 or NaOH or Ca(OH)2.

[0033] The liquefied plastic is heated by the hot flue gas 13 in the pyrolysis device 5. The pyrolysis device 5 in this embodiment is a pyrolysis kettle. In other embodiments, the pyrolysis device 5 can be a rotary kiln, a tunnel kiln, a pyrolysis screw reactor, or a tubular reactor. The liquefied plastic is heated by the hot flue gas 13 in the pyrolysis device 5 to 450 - 550 °C and stays for 15 - 60 min, and decomposes into pyrolysis oil gas and carbon slag 6 in an anaerobic or anoxic environment. The carbon slag 6 is discharged from the slag discharge port of the pyrolysis device 5, and the pyrolysis oil gas enters the dust removal device 9 for dust removal. The dust removal device 9 in this embodiment is a high-temperature-resistant device, and the dust removal device 9 in this embodiment is a cyclone dust collector. In other embodiments, the dust removal device 9 can be a high-temperature ceramic dust collector or a high-temperature cermet dust collector. The carbon powder separated by the dust removal device 9 is incorporated into the carbon slag 6, and the pyrolysis oil gas after dust removal enters the oil-gas separation device 7. The oil-gas separation device 7 is a separation device with two or more stages. The separation method of the oil-gas separation device 7 in this embodiment adopts a shell-and-tube heat exchanger, and the pyrolysis oil gas is cooled by an indirect air-cooling form to separate out the liquid pyrolysis oil 12 for collection as fuel, and the remaining non-condensable pyrolysis gas enters the hot blast stove 8 to burn out, generating hot flue gas 13 for discharge. In other embodiments, the oil-gas separation device 7 can be a plate heat exchanger. In other embodiments, the oil-gas separation device 7 can cool the pyrolysis oil gas by a water-cooling form.

[0034] The deacidified pyrolysis gas from the outlet of the deacidification device 10 and the non-condensable pyrolysis gas from the pyrolysis gas outlet of the oil-gas separation device 7 enter the hot blast stove 8 to burn out, generating hot flue gas 13 that enters the pyrolysis device 5. In this embodiment, the hot flue gas 13 generated by the hot blast stove 8 can provide sufficient heat and temperature for the pyrolysis of the liquefied plastic, sufficient for the thermal decomposition of the liquefied plastic. In the pyrolysis device 5, the liquefied plastic is heated by the hot flue gas 13 to 450 - 550 °C, thereby undergoing pyrolysis. The hot flue gas 13 after heat exchange is discharged from the flue gas outlet of the pyrolysis device 5 and enters the liquefaction and dehalogenation device 4. The temperature at the flue gas inlet of the liquefaction and dehalogenation device 4 should be controlled at 300 - 400 °C, which can provide sufficient heat and temperature for the liquefaction and dehalogenation of the waste plastic 1, sufficient for the liquefaction and dehalogenation of the waste plastic 1. In the liquefaction and dehalogenation device 4, the waste plastic 1 is heated by the hot flue gas 13 to 250 - 350 °C. The hot flue gas 13 after heat exchange is discharged from the flue gas outlet of the liquefaction and dehalogenation device 4 and enters the drying device 3 at the flue gas inlet. The temperature of the hot flue gas 13 at the inlet of the drying device 3 should be controlled below 250 °C, which can provide sufficient heat and temperature for the drying of the waste plastic 1. In the drying device 3, the waste plastic 1 is dried in an environment where it is heated by the hot flue gas 13 below 250 °C. The drying temperature of the waste plastic 1 cannot be too high, otherwise the waste plastic 1 will be liquefied in advance. The hot flue gas 13 after heat exchange together with the drying moisture of the waste plastic 1 enters the flue gas purification device 11 and is discharged up to standard after purification. In this embodiment, through the above method, the cascade utilization of the thermal energy of the hot flue gas 13 is reasonably distributed.

[0035] In this embodiment, a step-by-step disposal method is adopted for waste plastic 1: first, waste plastic 1 is dried at a relatively low temperature to reduce the energy consumption during the drying process; at an appropriate temperature, waste plastic 1 is subjected to liquefaction and dehalogenation, and the volume of waste plastic 1 is significantly reduced, reducing the size and manufacturing cost of the subsequent pyrolysis device 5.

[0036] In this embodiment, waste plastic 1 is subjected to dehalogenation treatment to reduce the corrosion of equipment by acidic gases such as hydrogen halide during the pyrolysis process and improve the quality of pyrolysis oil 12.

[0037] This embodiment realizes the recovery of high-quality pyrolysis oil 12 products, which can be used as fuel oil to achieve waste-to-energy conversion.

[0038] In this embodiment, the entire pyrolysis process is energy self-balanced, without the need to additionally increase fuel. Moreover, with the step-by-step disposal method, the cascade utilization distribution of the thermal energy of hot flue gas 13 is reasonable, and the thermal energy utilization efficiency of hot flue gas 13 in the entire pyrolysis process is high.
