Description

TECHNICAL FIELD

[0001] The utility model belongs to flue technology field, especially relate to a horizontal cooling flue of high temperature high dust containing flue gas of anti-ash deposit. BACKGROUND

[0002] High temperature high dust containing flue gas refers to the mixed gas of temperature significantly higher than normal temperature (usually up to hundreds to thousands of degrees Celsius) and carrying a large amount of solid particulate matter in industrial production. This kind of flue gas is mainly produced in metallurgical processes such as coking, ironmaking, steelmaking, etc. Its high temperature characteristic is due to the heat released by fuel combustion, metal smelting and chemical reaction, and high dust content is closely related to factors such as raw material crushing, high temperature volatilization, mechanical agitation, etc. For example, in the coking process, coking coal dry distillation in the coke oven above 1000℃ will release flue gas containing tar and benzopyrene; the high temperature reduction reaction (1200-1500℃) of iron ore and coke in the blast furnace produces high-temperature blast furnace gas containing iron oxide dust and CO; during converter steelmaking, oxygen blowing of molten iron for decarburization (above 1600℃) causes metal evaporation and oxidation, forming fine particulate flue dust mainly composed of iron oxide. In addition, incomplete combustion of fuel (such as sintering machine coal) and mechanical friction during material transportation (such as ore crushing) also aggravate the generation of flue dust. This kind of flue gas has complex composition, usually containing particulate matter such as iron oxide, silicon dioxide and heavy metals, as well as harmful gases such as CO, SO2 and NOx, and the treatment needs to consider high-temperature waste heat recovery and multi-stage dust removal and desulfurization technology.

[0003] For example, converter flue gas is a mixed gas produced during the blowing process of converter steelmaking, composed of CO (main component), CO2 and trace high-temperature gas and flue dust, with flue dust content of 150g / Nm 3 , and flue gas volume and composition change dramatically with the steelmaking stage: CO accounts for 85%-90% during the middle stage of blowing, at which time the flue gas volume is the largest, and the flue gas volume significantly decreases at the initial stage / late stage, and returns to zero at the end of blowing. In the prior art, the converter flue is usually designed in the form of a waste heat boiler, which utilizes the heat of high-temperature flue gas to generate steam, achieving energy recovery, and at the same time reducing the flue gas temperature through radiation heat transfer. After the high-temperature flue gas is preliminarily cooled by the vaporization flue, it enters the cyclone dust removal, wet scrubbing and other links to finally complete the deep separation of dust and harmful components.

[0004] However, when high-temperature high-dust-containing flue gas flows through the horizontal flue, the dust in the flue gas will deposit at the bottom of the flue due to gravity, causing the deposition of flue dust, blocking the flue gas passage, affecting the flow of flue gas, and further affecting the process production.

A spiral heat exchange coil can be arranged on the inner surface of the tapered wall of the hopper 3 as an economizer to cool the wall surface of the hopper 3.

[0023] The flue 1 is provided with an opening 101 at the bottom, and the opening 101 is connected with the hopper 3 below. In this embodiment, the opening 101 is provided with a plurality of openings, and each opening 101 is connected with a hopper 3 below; it should be noted that the opening 101 arranged at the bottom of the flue 1 is one or more, and each opening 101 is connected with a hopper 3 below, or a plurality of openings 101 are connected with a hopper 3, which can also achieve the purpose of the utility model; specifically, if there is no possibility of flue gas combustion and explosion, the opening 101 arranged at the bottom of the flue 1 is multiple, and a hopper 3 with an elliptical cross-sectional shape or a square cross-sectional shape is connected to the bottom of the multiple openings 101; only for flue gas with the possibility of combustion and explosion, because the circular cross-sectional passage has a certain anti-combustion and explosion capacity, the opening 101 arranged at the bottom of the flue 1 is multiple, and a hopper 3 with a circular cross-sectional passage is connected to the bottom of each circular opening 101.

[0024] The ash hopper 3 is provided with an ash collecting pipe 5, the lower opening of each ash hopper 3 is connected with the ash collecting pipe 5, one end of the ash collecting pipe 5 is provided with an ash outlet 501, and the end is inclined downward. The shape of the opening 101 can be square, circular or any shape, and the ash hopper 3 must cover the size of the opening, and the purpose of the utility model can be achieved.

[0025] The heat exchange pipe 2 is arranged inside the flue 1 and is arranged axially along the inner wall of the flue 1, the outer wall of the heat exchange pipe 2 located above the high point of the hole peripheral line of the opening 101 is connected with the heat exchange film piece 201 on both sides, the heat exchange film piece 201 is arranged symmetrically along the 180° direction of the outer surface of the heat exchange pipe, the end faces of the adjacent heat exchange film pieces 201 on the adjacent heat exchange pipes 2 are in contact or have a small gap, and the inner wall of the flue 1 is covered.

[0026] The heat exchange pipe 2 is a serpentine pipe, and the two ends are respectively connected with the steam drum 4. A forced circulation pump 401 is arranged on the pipeline connected with the steam drum 4.
