Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This utility model relates to the field of denitrification technology in cement kilns, specifically to an ammonia spray gun for ultra-low emissions. Background Technology
[0002] The low-ammonia denitrification technology upgrade mainly optimizes processes such as pulverized coal combustion in the decomposer, tertiary air ducts, and C4 feed pipes. Under the condition of not affecting cement firing, it rationally controls the amount of coal used at the kiln head and kiln tail, and adopts high-intensity reduction combustion control technology in the decomposer to generate a strong reduction zone in the cone part of the decomposer. The reducing agents such as CO, CH4, and HCN generated by the oxygen-deficient combustion of pulverized coal in the reduction zone react with the thermal NOx in the flue gas at the kiln head to generate pollution-free inert gas N2.
[0003] The high-efficiency SNCR denitrification technology transformation comprehensively considers furnace size, production operation data and denitrification temperature range. Based on the complete CFD analysis of SNCR denitrification in the decomposer furnace, it is arranged into a multi-layer temperature field spray point of "decomposer furnace + C5 cyclone outlet". The reducing agent is delivered quantitatively to the ammonia water spray gun set at the multi-layer spray point using a pump-distribution integrated equipment. After atomization, it is sprayed into the high-temperature zone of 850-1000℃ in the preheater system, so that the reducing agent reacts with NOx in the flue gas to form N2.
[0004] Currently, the existing ammonia spray guns used for denitrification in cement kilns have simple structures, poor atomization effects, and the atomization holes are prone to clogging, making them difficult to clean and maintain. Therefore, there is considerable room for optimization. Utility Model Content
[0005] In view of the problems and shortcomings of the existing technology, this utility model provides an ultra-low emission ammonia spray gun.
[0006] The technical solution of this utility model is as follows:
[0007] An ultra-low emission ammonia spray gun includes a nozzle, a first gun barrel, a connecting bayonet, a second gun barrel connected axially in sequence, and a fixed mounting sleeve fixed on the decomposition furnace to support the first gun barrel. The fluid inlet end of the second gun barrel is connected to a first branch pipe, and a second branch pipe is connected to the second gun barrel downstream of the first branch pipe.
[0008] The nozzle is detachably connected to the first gun barrel, and a filter and a seal are provided at the connection end; the second gun barrel is equipped with a flow meter and a pressure sensor, the flow meter is located upstream of the second branch pipe, and the pressure sensor is located downstream of the second branch pipe. Both the flow meter and the pressure sensor are communicatively connected to the control unit.
[0009] During operation, the fixed mounting sleeve is securely connected to the decomposition furnace. The nozzle and the first gun tube are inserted into the upper end of the fixed mounting sleeve and fixedly connected to the upper end of the fixed mounting sleeve via a connecting bayonet. Ammonia water or a liquid denitrification solvent containing urea enters the second gun tube through the first branch pipe, while gas enters the second gun tube through the second branch pipe and mixes with the ammonia water or urea-containing denitrification liquid solvent. The mixture is then ejected from the nozzle through the first gun tube. To facilitate nozzle cleaning and maintenance, the nozzle and the first gun tube are designed as detachable separate structures. A filter is installed at the connection end to prevent nozzle clogging, and a seal is installed at the connection end to prevent leakage.
[0010] Additionally, a flow meter is installed on the second nozzle downstream of the first branch pipe to measure the flow rate of ammonia water or denitrification solvent containing urea injected into the decomposition furnace. A pressure sensor is installed on the second nozzle downstream of the second branch pipe to detect the pressure inside the pipe. The pressure detection result is then obtained by the control unit and compared with the set value to determine whether the nozzle is blocked, and the result is notified to the user.
[0011] According to a specific embodiment, the nozzle includes a connecting tube connected to a first gun barrel and a nozzle head disposed at the end of the connecting tube. The connecting tube is connected to the first gun barrel via a threaded connection through a connecting hole, and a filter element and a seal element are disposed within the connecting hole.
[0012] The connecting pipe has an axially arranged fluid channel communicating with the first nozzle tube. This fluid channel includes a conical constriction section, a straight section, and a conical expansion section, arranged sequentially from the first nozzle tube towards the nozzle head. Furthermore, the cone angle of the conical constriction section is larger than that of the conical expansion section. By utilizing the Venturi principle, the denitrification liquid and denitrification solvent near the outlet pipe section are accelerated and pressurized, thereby reducing nozzle head clogging, improving atomization efficiency, and further increasing the mixing efficiency of the denitrification liquid and denitrification solvent, ultimately improving denitrification efficiency and reducing emissions.
[0013] According to a specific embodiment, the first branch pipe is connected to a liquid supply pipeline containing ammonia or urea via a valve, and is equipped with a first filter. The second branch pipe is connected to an air intake pipeline via a valve, and is equipped with a second filter. The valves on the first and second branch pipes are needle valves.
[0014] An ultra-low emission ammonia spray gun also includes an alarm module, which is communicatively connected to the control unit and is used to output audible and visual alarm signals based on the measurement results of the pressure sensor. When the pressure inside the nozzle is detected to be greater than the test-set pressure, the control unit controls the alarm module to issue an audible and visual alarm signal, indicating that the nozzle may be clogged and prompting timely inspection and maintenance.
[0015] The second nozzle is also equipped with a temperature sensor, which is connected to the control unit. The purpose is to detect and regulate the temperature of the denitrifying agent solvent liquid in real time, so as to ensure the complete decomposition of the fixed substances in the denitrifying agent solvent liquid and further reduce nozzle clogging.
[0016] The beneficial effects of this utility model are:
[0017] The nozzle and the first barrel are designed as detachable separate structures, facilitating nozzle cleaning and maintenance. A filter is installed at the connection end to effectively reduce nozzle clogging. The fluid channel within the nozzle is optimized to reduce nozzle head clogging, improve atomization efficiency, further enhance denitrification efficiency, and reduce nitrogen oxide emissions from the cement kiln's decomposition furnace.

After use, the ammonia spray gun can be separated from the mounting sleeve via the connecting bayonet 4, and a plug 5 is connected to the end of the connecting bayonet 4. Ammonia or a liquid denitrification solvent containing urea enters the second gun barrel 7 through the first branch pipe 8, while gas enters the second gun barrel 7 through the second branch pipe 9 and mixes with the ammonia or urea-containing denitrification liquid solvent. Then, both are sprayed out from the nozzle 1 through the first gun barrel 2. To facilitate cleaning and maintenance of the nozzle 1, the nozzle 1 and the first gun barrel 2 are designed as detachable separate structures.

[0028] A fluid channel 13, communicating with the first gun barrel 2, is provided axially inside the connecting pipe 12. The fluid channel 13 includes a tapered constriction section, a straight section, and a tapered expansion section, arranged sequentially from the first gun barrel 2 towards the nozzle head 11. Furthermore, the cone angle of the tapered constriction section is larger than that of the tapered expansion section. By utilizing the Venturi principle, the denitrification liquid and denitrification solvent near the outlet pipe section are accelerated and pressurized, reducing clogging of the nozzle head 11 and improving the mixing efficiency of the denitrification liquid and denitrification solvent, thereby further improving denitrification efficiency and reducing emissions.
