Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This utility model relates to the field of rotary kiln technology, and to an integrated waste heat recovery and utilization device, particularly to an integrated waste heat recovery and utilization device based on a double-cylinder rotary kiln. Background Technology
[0002] A rotary kiln is a rotating calcining kiln (commonly known as a rotary kiln), resembling a rotating bed in shape. Currently, most rotary kilns are single-cylinder. While single-cylinder rotary kilns have the advantage of simple structure, their processing efficiency still has significant room for improvement. A double-cylinder rotary kiln is a newer type of rotary kiln structure. Its inner cylinder can process high-temperature materials, while the outer cylinder processes low-temperature materials. The high-temperature material in the inner cylinder transfers heat to the low-temperature material in the outer cylinder through radiation, effectively improving the thermal efficiency of the equipment to a certain extent. However, current double-cylinder rotary kiln designs still have some shortcomings: 1) low utilization rate of waste heat from the inner cylinder; 2) easy mixing of materials discharged from the inner and outer cylinders.
[0003] Therefore, developing a double-cylinder rotary kiln structure with high waste heat utilization and the ability to separate the material discharge between the inner and outer cylinders is of great practical significance. Utility Model Content
[0004] Due to the aforementioned defects in the existing technology, this utility model provides a double-cylinder rotary kiln structure with high waste heat utilization rate and the ability to separate the material discharge between the inner and outer cylinders. Specifically, it is an integrated waste heat recovery and utilization device based on a double-cylinder rotary kiln.
[0005] To achieve the above objectives, this utility model provides the following technical solution:
[0006] An integrated waste heat recovery and utilization device includes an inner cylinder, an outer cylinder, a feed sealing cover, and a discharge sealing cover;
[0007] Both the inner and outer cylinders are cylindrical structures, with the inner cylinder arranged inside the outer cylinder;
[0008] The feed sealing cover and the discharge sealing cover are respectively arranged at both ends of the outer cylinder;
[0009] The feed sealing cover is equipped with a feed end inner cylinder sealing device for sealing the feed end of the inner cylinder;
[0010] The bottom plate of the discharge sealing cover has a through hole and a cold air conveying axial flow fan is installed at the through hole. The discharge sealing cover has an inner ring-shaped air duct, and the side of the inner ring-shaped air duct away from the discharge sealing cover is aligned with the gap between the outer cylinder and the inner cylinder. The top of the inner ring-shaped air duct is connected to the smoke exhaust channel, and the smoke exhaust channel extends out from the discharge sealing cover. The bottom of the inner ring-shaped air duct is connected to the ash discharge pipe, and the ash discharge pipe extends out from the discharge sealing cover. The bottom of the discharge sealing cover has an inner cylinder discharge port and an outer cylinder discharge port located on both sides of the separating device.
[0011] An inner cylinder return air vent is provided on the side wall near the feed sealing end of the inner cylinder.
[0012] The operating logic of the above-mentioned integrated waste heat recovery and utilization device is as follows:
[0013] The integrated waste heat recovery and utilization device adopts an inner and outer double cylinder design. The material in the inner cylinder can be high-temperature material, while the material in the outer cylinder can be tailings, construction waste, contaminated soil, or other materials with a moisture content of about 20%. The high-temperature material inside transfers heat to the outer cylinder through radiation, heating the material in the outer cylinder and evaporating the moisture. The cold air conveying axial flow fan on the discharge cover sends external cold air into the inner cylinder. The cold air is heated by the high temperature in the inner cylinder and flows from the discharge end to the feed end within the inner cylinder. It then flows into the outer cylinder through the inner cylinder return air port opened on the side wall of the inner cylinder. The air in the outer cylinder flows from the feed end to the discharge end, carrying away the water vapor generated by the drying material. The device has a reasonable internal air duct design, which can realize rapid heat circulation within the device and achieve efficient utilization of heat.
[0014] This utility model's integrated waste heat recovery and utilization device has a reasonable structural design and air duct design, which can realize rapid heat circulation within the device and achieve efficient utilization of heat. It can effectively separate the materials in the inner and outer cylinders, and its discharge and feeding are independent, which can distinguish the feeding and discharging of different materials. The design is reasonable, has good applicability, and has great application prospects.
[0015] As a preferred technical solution:
[0016] In the integrated waste heat recovery and utilization device described above, the cold air conveying axial flow fan delivers air from the discharge closed cover to the feed closed cover.
[0017] As described above, in an integrated waste heat recovery and utilization device, the inner cylinder outlet is located near the outer cylinder side of the separating device;
[0018] The outer cylinder outlet is located on the side of the separator away from the outer cylinder.
[0019] As described above, in an integrated waste heat recovery and utilization device, the inner cylinder sealing device at the feed end divides the space enclosed by the feed sealing cover and the outer cylinder into two independent spaces.
[0020] As described above, in an integrated waste heat recovery and utilization device, the feed sealing cover has an outer cylinder feed port, and the inner cylinder feed pipe penetrates the feed sealing cover and the inner cylinder sealing device at the feed end and communicates with the inner cylinder.
[0021] As described above, in an integrated waste heat recovery and utilization device, the inner annular air duct is coaxial with the discharge sealing cover and does not contact the bottom plate of the discharge sealing cover. A partition device is also provided between the inner annular air duct and the discharge sealing cover to divide the space inside the discharge sealing cover into two independent spaces.
[0022] As described above, in an integrated waste heat recovery and utilization device, a ring of inner cylinder lifting plates is installed on the inner wall of the inner cylinder, arranged around its axis of symmetry.
[0023] The inner wall of the outer cylinder is fitted with a ring of lifting plates arranged around its axis of symmetry. The lifting plates at different angles on the inner and outer cylinders allow the material to tumble and exchange heat fully. During the rotation of the rotary kiln, the material moves from the feed inlet to the discharge outlet, completing the heat exchange.
[0024] As described above, in an integrated waste heat recovery and utilization device, the inner cylinder and the outer cylinder are coaxial, and the outer diameter of the inner cylinder is smaller than the inner diameter of the outer cylinder.
[0025] The above technical solution is only one feasible technical solution of this utility model. The protection scope of this utility model is not limited to this. Those skilled in the art can reasonably adjust the specific design according to actual needs.
[0026] Compared with the prior art, the above-mentioned utility model has the following advantages or beneficial effects:

Its discharge and feeding are independent, and it can distinguish the feeding and discharging of different materials. It is reasonably designed, has good applicability, and has great application prospects. Attached Figure Description
