Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This utility model relates to the field of waste treatment technology, and in particular to a fly ash treatment system and combustion furnace for waste incineration power generation based on Brown gas combustion. Background Technology
[0002] Waste-to-energy incineration, as an effective waste treatment method, has been widely used in urban waste management. It can significantly reduce waste volume while converting the energy in the waste into electricity, achieving resource recycling. However, the fly ash produced during waste incineration contains large amounts of heavy metals (such as lead, mercury, and cadmium), dioxins, and other harmful substances. These harmful substances are highly toxic, difficult to degrade, and bioaccumulate. If not properly treated, they can enter the ecological environment through soil, water, and air, posing a serious threat to the environment and human health.
[0003] Currently, the main methods for treating fly ash from waste incineration power generation include solidification and landfill, and co-processing in cement kilns. Solidification and landfill involves mixing fly ash with a solidifying agent before landfilling, but this method requires a large amount of land resources, and the solidified material may crack under long-term environmental conditions, leading to the leakage of harmful substances and posing a risk of secondary pollution. Co-processing in cement kilns involves feeding fly ash as a raw material into a cement kiln for high-temperature treatment, but this method has certain requirements regarding the composition and properties of the fly ash, has high processing costs, and may affect the quality of cement. Therefore, finding an efficient, environmentally friendly, and economical method for fly ash treatment is of significant practical importance. Utility Model Content

The furnace is equipped with temperature sensors, pressure sensors, and ventilation devices, enabling real-time monitoring and adjustment of temperature, pressure, and ventilation within the furnace to ensure a stable and safe combustion process.
[0031] In this embodiment, the structure of the combustion furnace is as follows: Figure 1As shown. The combustion furnace includes a furnace body, a furnace bottom, and a furnace top. The furnace body is equipped with a fly ash inlet 4, a Brown gas preheater 7, and several Brown gas burners 3. The fly ash inlet 4 is used to introduce pretreated fly ash and is connected to the fly ash pretreatment unit. The Brown gas preheater 7 is used to preheat Brown gas. The Brown gas burners 3 are connected to the Brown gas production unit and are used to introduce Brown gas and burn Brown gas in the furnace body.

[0033] II. A method for stabilizing fly ash from waste incineration power generation by burning Brown gas.
[0034] The method includes the following steps:
[0035] 1. Fly Ash Pretreatment: The fly ash generated from waste incineration power generation is collected and screened to remove large particles and metals larger than 5mm in diameter, resulting in pretreated fly ash. Specifically, the fly ash is collected by a fly ash collector and then fed into a screening device, such as a vibrating screen, to remove large particles larger than this diameter. Next, a metal separator, such as an electromagnetic separator, is used to remove metals from the fly ash, yielding pretreated fly ash.
[0036] In this embodiment, the screen mesh size of the vibrating screen is set to 5mm to remove large particle impurities with a particle size greater than this value.
[0037] 2. Brown Gas Preparation: Brown gas is prepared using a water electrolysis device. Appropriate amounts of water and an electrolyte (such as sodium hydroxide or potassium hydroxide) are added to the device. The device is started, and by precisely controlling the current and voltage, hydrogen and oxygen are electrolyzed to produce brown gas in a strictly 2:1 volume ratio. The prepared brown gas is then transferred to a gas storage tank for later use.
[0038] 3. Combustion Treatment: The pretreated fly ash is fed into the combustion furnace, and prepared Brown gas is introduced into the furnace. The combustion temperature is controlled at 800-1200℃, and the combustion time is 30-60 minutes to ensure complete combustion of the fly ash under the action of Brown gas. During the combustion process, the high temperature generated by the Brown gas combustion enables the harmful substances in the fly ash to undergo decomposition and volatilization reactions. The stable combustion process is ensured by adjusting the Brown gas flow rate and the ventilation rate of the combustion furnace. Simultaneously, temperature and pressure sensors are used to monitor parameters such as temperature and pressure inside the combustion furnace in real time, and adjustments are made in real time through an automatic control system.
[0039] 4. Exhaust Gas Treatment: The exhaust gas generated during combustion is purified to remove harmful substances before being discharged in compliance with standards. The exhaust gas is sequentially purified through a dust removal device, a desulfurization device, a denitrification device, and a harmful substance adsorption device. The dust removal device uses a bag filter, which effectively removes particulate matter from the exhaust gas. The desulfurization device uses the limestone-gypsum method, where limestone slurry is sprayed into the desulfurization tower to react with sulfur dioxide in the exhaust gas to produce gypsum, thereby removing sulfur dioxide. The denitrification device uses selective catalytic reduction, where nitrogen oxides in the exhaust gas react with ammonia under the action of a catalyst to produce nitrogen and water. The harmful substance adsorption device uses activated carbon adsorption. Activated carbon has a large specific surface area and abundant pore structure, which can effectively adsorb harmful substances such as heavy metals and dioxins in the exhaust gas.
