Furthermore, throughout this application, the same reference numerals refer to the same things. Specific descriptions of the drawings are as follows:

[0039] Figure 2 This is a schematic diagram of the coupled heat recovery structure in the distributed coupled treatment system for organic solid waste of this application. Detailed Implementation
[0040] To enable those skilled in the art to better understand the technical solutions of this application, the technical solutions described in this application will be further described in detail below with reference to specific embodiments.
[0041] like Figure 1The distributed coupled treatment system for organic solid waste provided in this application converts organic solid waste from different sources (such as garden waste 4, bulky waste 5, other waste 6, etc.) into energy in the form of combustible gas, liquid fuel, and solid residue through low-temperature pyrolysis reactions, and then uses this energy for heating purposes. When the heat from organic solid waste is insufficient, biomass heating equipment (such as biodiesel, waste-derived fuel (RDF), solid recycled fuel (SRF)) and energy storage heating equipment (such as off-peak electricity, solar energy, and ground source heat pumps) are used to circulate and heat the waste (up to about 800°C). Mobile heating vehicles are used to provide heat to equipment in need (at about 200°C), such as waste oil pretreatment equipment (requiring heat of about 70-90°C), waste biomass wet hydrolysis equipment (requiring heat of 150°C-180°C), and other equipment that requires heat (such as commercial or residential heating equipment) through heat transfer. This treatment system achieves efficient pyrolysis and thermal energy conversion of organic matter under low-temperature conditions. It fully utilizes the technology aimed at reducing waste resources and treating them harmlessly, realizing the recycling of energy. It can effectively reduce the pollution of organic solid waste to the environment, mitigate the negative impact of landfill and incineration, and at the same time realize energy recovery and resource reuse, thereby improving resource utilization efficiency.
[0042] Refuse-derived fuel (RDF) is a type of solid fuel made from combustible solid waste separated from municipal solid waste through processes such as drying, crushing, sorting, and molding.
[0043] Solid recycled fuel (SRF) is a type of fuel produced from non-household waste (primarily commercial, industrial, and agricultural waste) through a series of processing steps.
[0044] When there is sufficient heat in the organic solid waste, the organic solid waste is pyrolyzed in the pyrolysis equipment, and the resulting products are used for heating.
[0045] The pyrolysis equipment 11 includes a reactor, typically a sealable container, used to heat and decompose organic solid waste into combustible gas, liquid fuel (bio-oil), and solid residue (biochar) in an oxygen-deficient environment. The pyrolysis process also generates its own heat, which can be used for thermal decomposition. Excess heat from the pyrolysis process can also be recovered and supplied externally. The feed inlet of the pyrolysis reactor is connected to a feeding device, such as a screw conveyor or vibrating feeder, to transport components 4, 5, and 6 into the reactor. The discharge outlet is connected to pyrolysis product pipelines, which include gas pipelines, liquid pipelines, and solid residue transfer pipelines to respectively transport the combustible gas, bio-oil, and solid residue (mainly biochar) generated during the pyrolysis process.
[0046] A portion of the pyrolysis product pipeline is located within the first cavity. The heat of the substance in the pyrolysis product pipeline can be exchanged with the air in the first cavity. The first cavity is connected to the hot air path of the heat exchanger through a duct and forms a circulation. A fan is installed in the duct to drive the air circulation between the first cavity and the hot air path of the heat exchanger.
[0047] In one embodiment, the temperature conditions of the pyrolysis reactor are 200–800°C. The core of this technology lies in the pyrolysis reaction, which has advantages such as fast processing speed, good volume reduction effect, and resource recovery.
[0048] In one embodiment, a fuel supply device is installed upstream of the pyrolysis equipment, which includes a preheating unit for preheating organic solid waste. The fuel supply device handles fuel storage, transportation, and preheating. The fuel is generally organic solid waste, such as garden waste, bulky waste, and other waste. To improve fuel transportation efficiency and reduce energy loss, stainless steel pipes with good thermal conductivity are selected for the fuel supply device, and the exterior is packaged with high-temperature resistant, flame-retardant, and other heat-insulating materials. Furthermore, fuel preheating ensures the smooth progress of the pyrolysis reaction.
[0049] When the heat from organic solid waste is insufficient, at least one of the following can be used for supplementary heating: biomass heating equipment, energy storage heating equipment, and mobile heating vehicles.
[0050] The biomass heating equipment 10 includes a burner for burning biomass fuel. Solid fuels 2 and 3 can be conveyed via a screw conveyor or vibrating feeder, while liquid fuel 1 is injected into the combustion chamber via a pump and pipeline (with nozzles at the end). The burner is connected to a flue gas passage to discharge the flue gas generated during combustion.
[0051] A portion of the flue gas passage duct is located in the second cavity, where the heat of the flue gas in the flue gas passage can be exchanged with the air in the second cavity. The second cavity is connected to the hot air path of the heat exchanger through a duct and forms a circulation. A fan is installed in the duct to drive the air circulation between the second cavity and the hot air path of the heat exchanger.
[0052] The energy storage heating device 12 includes a water tank, in which water is heated by a solar heat pipe circulation system and by a ground source heat pump system. The water tank also contains an electric heating device that can utilize off-peak electricity (such as nighttime electricity) for heating. The lower section of the water tank is insulated, while the middle and upper sections of the water tank have no insulation layer and fins on their outer surface. The middle and upper sections are located within a third cavity, where heat from the water tank can exchange with the air inside the third cavity. This third cavity is connected to the hot air path of the heat exchanger via a duct to form a circulation. A fan is installed in the duct to drive the air circulation between the third cavity and the hot air path of the heat exchanger.
[0053] A mobile heating vehicle is a mobile heating device that integrates core components such as a heat source, heat exchanger, and circulating pump into a mobile vehicle body to achieve rapid heat transfer and distribution.
[0054] In one implementation, such as Figure 2 The heat exchanger may include three heat exchangers 13, 14, and 16. Each heat exchanger has two paths: one for hot air and the other for the output medium (such as heat transfer oil, steam, or water). The inlet and outlet of the hot air paths of the three heat exchangers can each be equipped with a four-way valve (three inlets and one outlet) to connect with the hot air circulation pipelines of 10, 11, and 12. Switching between the four-way valves allows connection to the hot air of one of 10, 11, or 12, thus recovering the corresponding heat.
[0055] Each heat exchanger has an inlet and an outlet for its output medium, and is equipped with corresponding valves to supply heat to downstream equipment through the corresponding medium (e.g., 20, 21, 22, 23, 24).
[0056] In one embodiment, the heat recovery of 10, 11, and 12 in this application adopts an air path method, thereby achieving consistency of the interface (air path interface) during heat recovery. This facilitates simultaneous adaptation to 13, 14, and 16, enabling controllable and flexible connection between 13, 14, and 16 and 10, 11, and 12 to recover heat, thus realizing distributed coupled heat recovery.
[0057] In one embodiment, the medium passage of the first heat exchanger is filled with heat transfer oil; the medium passage of the second heat exchanger is filled with steam; and the medium passage of the third heat exchanger is filled with hot water. The second and third heat exchangers are also connected to a water softener to remove calcium and magnesium ions from the water, thereby "softening" the water and enabling the conversion between the steam from the second heat exchanger and the hot water from the third heat exchanger.
[0058] To reduce the impact of high temperature on the fan, in the coupled processing system, the fan is set at the loop outlet end of 13, 14, and 16 and then reconnected to 10, 11, and 12 (where heat exchange is completed).
[0059] In coupled heat exchange systems, heat transfer primarily occurs through equipment walls and pipes. To improve thermal efficiency, high-strength, high-temperature-resistant, and thermally conductive materials, such as high-temperature alloys and stainless steel, are selected. The exterior is encased in high-temperature-resistant and flame-retardant insulation materials to minimize heat loss.
[0060] In one implementation, the coupled treatment system can be controlled by an intelligent control system, which provides strong support for the stable operation and efficient management of the distributed coupled treatment system for organic solid waste. The system integrates advanced functions such as remote monitoring, automatic adjustment, and fault diagnosis, enabling it to monitor the system's operating status in real time, automatically adjust operating parameters to cope with changes in the external environment, and quickly locate problems when faults occur, reducing downtime.
[0061] Example
[0062] Figure 1 This is a schematic diagram of the distributed coupled treatment system for organic solid waste in this application. Figure 1 As shown, organic solid waste (e.g., 4-garden waste, 5-bulky waste, 6-other waste) is pyrolyzed in the 11-pyrolysis equipment; 1-biomass diesel, 2-waste-derived fuel (RDF), and 3-solid recycled fuel (SRF) are burned in the 10-biomass heating equipment; 7-off-peak electricity, 8-solar energy, and 9-ground source heat pumps generate heat by heating water in the 12-energy storage heating equipment. The heat generated by 10, 11, and 12 is supplied externally through heat exchangers (13-thermal oil heat exchange system, 14-steam heat exchange system, 16-water storage heat exchange system) in the form of 17-thermal oil heating, 18-steam heating, and 19-hot water heating. Additionally, 25-mobile heating vehicles can also be used for supplementary heating. The entire distributed coupled treatment system for organic solid waste can be used for 20-wet hydrolysis equipment for waste biomass, 21-pre-treatment equipment for waste oil, 22-other heat-using equipment, 23-commercial heating systems, and 24-residential heating systems. By rationally arranging the pipeline route and reducing pipeline length, heat loss during temperature transfer can be minimized. Simultaneously, the exterior is encased in high-temperature resistant and flame-retardant insulation materials to further reduce heat dissipation.

A portion of the pyrolysis product pipeline is located in the first chamber. The heat of the substance in the pyrolysis product pipeline can exchange heat with the air in the first chamber.

A fan is installed in the duct to drive the air circulation in the first chamber and the hot air path of the heat exchangers. 10 - The outlet of the biomass heating equipment is connected to a flue gas pipeline. A portion of the flue gas pipeline is located in the second chamber. The heat of the flue gas in the flue gas pipeline can exchange heat with the air in the second chamber. The second chamber is connected to the hot air path of heat exchangers 13, 14, and 16 through a duct to form a circulation. A fan is installed in the duct to drive the air circulation in the second chamber and the hot air path of the heat exchangers. 12-The energy storage heating device is equipped with a third chamber, in which the heat inside the device can exchange heat with the air inside the third chamber.

A fan is installed in the duct to drive the air circulation between the third chamber and the hot air path of the heat exchangers.
