[0002] A vertical carbonization furnace typically consists of a preheating section, a carbonization section, a cooling section, a discharge system, and a hopper. Material is added into the furnace through the upper feeding port and moves from top to bottom, passing through the preheating section, the carbonization section, and the cooling section. Then, it is discharged into the discharge hopper through the discharge system and discharged through the outlet of the discharge hopper.

[0003] The raw coal gas produced during carbonization enters the fire channel through a pre-reserved opening in the furnace core bricks; combustion air enters the fire channel through a pre-reserved air inlet in the wall, mixing and burning with the raw coal gas; the heat from the combustion of the raw coal gas maintains the operating temperature of the vertical carbonization furnace. The exhaust gas after combustion is drawn out of the furnace by an induced draft fan for tail gas treatment before being discharged.

[0004] However, in existing technologies, the carbonization material accumulates at the bottom and cannot fully react with the hot flue gas, resulting in low utilization of the furnace space and limiting the single furnace capacity. Utility Model Content
