DETAILED DESCRIPTION
[0014] As Figure 1 Shown, for the waste heat recovery system of a furnace dry quenching of the application, the system core mainly includes: semi coke oven, combustor, cooling chamber, flash tank, steam drum and mixed gas distribution chamber composition.Semi coke is transferred from semi coke oven into cooling chamber, and the cooling chamber is a water cooling structure, and the water cooling pipeline outlet is communicated with the flash tank, and the flash tank is connected with the steam drum through a pipeline, and the steam drum is provided with a steam-water separation element, and the steam drum is provided with a water vapor outlet pipe and a condensed water outlet pipe, and the water vapor outlet pipe is communicated to the mixed gas distribution chamber, and the condensed water outlet pipe is communicated to the cooling water inlet pipe through an air cooler.The cooling chamber is designed with a coke hopper 4, a conveyer belt 2 and a spiral semi coke cooler 13.The system realizes the dry quenching of semi coke oven, thereby avoiding a series of problems caused by water quenching.Further, the saturation steam generated by the high temperature hot water of recycling utilizing the flash tank to carry out the cooling is used as the steam source of mixed gas distribution chamber, that is, the energy consumption is saved, and the quality of semi coke oven tar product of semi coke furnace is improved.
[0015] The semi-coke baffle 6 is controlled by the coke pushing arm 1, and the coke pushing arm 1 pushes the semi-coke baffle 6 to control the size of the opening and the rate of coke discharge. The bottom of the semi-coke baffle 6 is designed with a conveyor belt 2, and the bottom of the conveyor belt 2 is designed with a coke storage hopper 4. The conveyor belt 2 sends the semi-coke into the coke storage hopper 4 for accumulation. The high-temperature semi-coke in the coke storage hopper 4 passes through the rotary valve 3 (high-temperature resistant valve, effectively controlling the amount of coke entering the spiral semi-coke cooler), the semi-coke conveying pipe 14 enters the inside of the spiral semi-coke cooler, and is piled up to a certain height around the inlet pipe. When the gravity generated by the semi-coke and the gravity of the semi-coke in the semi-coke conveying pipe 14 are balanced, the flow of the semi-coke in the semi-coke conveying pipe 14 is blocked. When the semi-coke is pushed by the rotation of the outer cylinder to move towards the semi-coke cooler outlet, the height of the semi-coke pile around the semi-coke conveying pipe 14 decreases, thereby breaking the gravity balance between the semi-coke inside and outside the semi-coke conveying pipe 14, and the semi-coke in the semi-coke conveying pipe 14 flows forward and enters the inside of the spiral semi-coke cooler. In turn, the outer cylinder main body rotates, the high-temperature semi-coke flows in, the outer cylinder main body stops, the high-temperature semi-coke flow stops, the outer cylinder main body rotates fast, the high-temperature semi-coke flows in fast, the outer cylinder main body rotates slowly, and the high-temperature semi-coke flows in slowly. During the process of pushing the semi-coke, the high-temperature semi-coke exchanges heat with the cooling water. Most of the heat of the semi-coke is taken away by the circulating cooling water. The 10 bar cooling water cools the high-temperature semi-coke at 700-800℃ in the cooling chamber to about 200℃. The temperature of the semi-coke decreases, and the semi-coke is transported away by the transportation equipment or stored in the warehouse. The heated cooling water enters the flash tank for pressure reduction and flashing, the steam generated enters the steam drum, and after the steam-water separation of the steam drum, high-quality steam is finally generated, enters the mixed gas chamber, mixes with the gas, and then enters the coke oven for chemical reaction again, thereby improving the quality and yield of the tar.
[0016] The cooling chamber is designed with a conveyor belt 2, a coke storage hopper 4, and a spiral semi-coke cooler 13. The conveyor belt can be designed as a horizontal type or an inclined type to adapt to the working requirements of different semi-coke ovens. The coke storage hopper 4 is designed between the two conveyor belts, and the two conveyor belts run towards each other to transport the high-temperature semi-coke to the coke storage hopper. According to the number of semi-coke ovens, the two conveyor belts can be combined into one conveyor belt, and the coke storage hopper is designed at one end of the conveyor belt. The size and capacity of the semi-coke oven are adjusted to achieve the best coke discharge effect. The conveyor belt is equipped with a speed changing device to realize accurate control of the coke discharge rate. The speed changing device has a wide adjustment range and can adapt to the speed requirements of different production stages to ensure smooth connection between the semi-coke production process and the spiral semi-coke cooler.

The cooling water circulating pipe contacts the semi-coke while not hindering the rotation of the outer drum. The mechanism for providing the rotation of the outer drum includes a support ring 7, a support wheel 15, a transmission wheel 16 and a driving motor 8, the driving motor 8 is placed at one side of the outer drum, the output shaft of the driving motor 8 is connected to the transmission wheel, the transmission wheel 16 and the support wheel 15 are in friction transmission, and the support ring 7 is rotationally supported and connected to the outer drum body.
