[0021] To more clearly illustrate the embodiments of this utility model, the specific implementation methods of this utility model will be described below with reference to the accompanying drawings. Obviously, the drawings described below are merely some embodiments of this utility model. For those skilled in the art, other drawings and other implementation methods can be obtained based on these drawings without any creative effort.
[0022] This utility model discloses a waste incineration fly ash treatment system coupled with a waste incineration power plant. The exhaust gas generated from pyrolysis tail gas enters the waste incineration power plant exhaust gas treatment system and undergoes co-treatment before entering the desulfurization tower. The secondary water washing fly ash slurry, whose main component is quicklime, is used as a desulfurizing agent to spray back onto the desulfurization tower, and the desulfurization adopts a semi-dry method. Taking advantage of the high alkalinity of the leachate from the waste incineration power plant and the high hardness of the fly ash filtrate, the two streams of water are mixed to form calcium carbonate precipitate. To prevent either the hardness or alkalinity of the two streams from being excessive, sodium carbonate and sodium hydroxide are used to balance the mixture. The evaporation system uses steam from the turbine outlet to evaporate and crystallize salt.
[0023] The equipment in the fly ash treatment system of this utility model is all skid-mounted integrated equipment. The core equipment, the low-temperature pyrolysis furnace (hereinafter referred to as "pyrolysis furnace"), has multiple heating methods, including electric heating, gas heating, and high-temperature flue gas heating. Among them, the high-temperature flue gas heating uses the flue gas from the outlet of the waste heat boiler of the waste incineration power plant to realize the utilization of the waste heat of the outlet flue gas of the waste heat boiler.
[0024] This utility model adopts a waste incineration fly ash treatment system coupled with the waste incineration power plant, which can not only solve the problems of high initial construction costs, high reagent and operating costs of traditional fly ash resource utilization enterprises, but also save the overall operating costs of waste incineration power plants. It is low-carbon, environmentally friendly and economically feasible.
