Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This utility model relates to the field of activated carbon production technology, and in particular to a carbonization furnace for the production of desulfurization and denitrification activated carbon. Background Technology
[0002] Activated carbon production is a process that transforms carbonaceous materials into adsorbent materials with highly developed pore structures through multiple steps such as raw material pretreatment, carbonization, and activation. The raw materials are widely available, including wood, coconut shells, coal, and fruit shells.
[0003] The carbonization furnace is the core equipment in activated carbon production, responsible for the carbonization process. Its main function is to provide a suitable high-temperature environment for the raw materials, promoting their pyrolysis reaction. When using wood as raw material, in the initial stage of carbonization, a large amount of moisture in the wood evaporates, producing a large amount of water vapor; this process is mainly physical dehydration. As the temperature rises and the process enters the middle and later stages, organic components such as cellulose and hemicellulose in the wood begin to decompose, releasing various combustible gases such as methane, hydrogen, and carbon monoxide.
[0004] For the flammable gases such as methane and hydrogen produced in the middle and later stages of carbonization, most equipment on the market currently adopts a closed-loop combustion method to collect them and reintroduce them into the furnace as fuel, effectively reducing the consumption of external energy. However, the large amount of water vapor produced in the early stage of carbonization is often directly emitted into the atmosphere because it is non-toxic and harmless. The large amount of heat energy carried by this water vapor is also lost and not rationally utilized, resulting in a certain amount of energy waste. Therefore, a carbonization furnace for the production of desulfurized and denitrified activated carbon is proposed to solve the above problems. Utility Model Content

Detailed Implementation
[0031] The technical solutions of the present utility model will be clearly and completely described below with reference to the accompanying drawings of the embodiments. Obviously, the described embodiments are only some embodiments of the present utility model, and not all embodiments. Based on the embodiments of the present utility model, all other embodiments obtained by those of ordinary skill in the art without creative effort are within the protection scope of the present utility model.
[0032] Reference Figure 1 - Figure 3This utility model provides an embodiment of a carbonization furnace for the production of desulfurized and denitrified activated carbon, comprising a furnace body 1, a preheating box 2 fixedly connected to the outer wall of the furnace body 1, and doors hinged to the front of both the furnace body 1 and the preheating box 2. A steam pipe 3 is fixedly connected between the furnace body 1 and the preheating box 2, and the steam generated during the carbonization process of the furnace body 1 can be introduced into the interior of the preheating box 2 through the steam pipe 3. An electromagnetic valve 31 is provided on the steam pipe 3, and the opening and closing of the steam pipe 3 can be controlled by the electromagnetic valve 31. A preheating mechanism 4 and a turbulence mechanism 5 are provided inside the preheating box 2, and a pressure relief hole 6 is provided at the bottom of the preheating box 2, through which the steam inside the preheating box 2 can be gradually discharged to the outside.
[0033] Reference Figure 2 - Figure 4 The preheating mechanism 4 includes a rotating drum 41, which is rotatably connected to the inner wall of the preheating box 2. The rotating drum 41 can be used to preheat the wood to be carbonized. The outer wall of the rotating drum 41 is fixedly connected to heat-conducting fins 42. The heat-conducting fins 42 exchange heat with the steam inside the preheating box 2, which can gradually raise the temperature of the rotating drum 41. One end of the furnace body 1 is an open structure, and the other end of the furnace body 1 is fixedly connected to a gear ring 43. When the gear ring 43 rotates, it will drive the rotating drum 41 to rotate synchronously inside the preheating box 2. The top of the preheating box 2 is fixedly connected to a motor 44. The output end of the motor 44 is fixedly connected to a rotating shaft 45. The outer wall of the rotating shaft 45 is fixedly connected to a gear 46 that meshes with the gear ring 43. When the motor 44 is started, it drives the rotating shaft 45 to rotate. When the rotating shaft 45 rotates, it drives the gear 46 to rotate synchronously. When the gear 46 rotates, it drives the gear ring 43 that meshes with it to rotate.
[0034] Reference Figure 2 - Figure 4The turbulence-dissipating mechanism 5 includes a rotating rod 51. One end of the rotating rod 51 is rotatably connected to the inner wall of the preheating box 2, and the other end of the rotating rod 51 passes through the preheating box 2 and is fixedly connected to a protrusion 52. A turbulence-dissipating plate 53 is fixedly connected to the outer wall of the rotating rod 51. When the rotating rod 51 rotates back and forth, it drives the turbulence-dissipating plate 53 to swing back and forth. The back and forth swing of the turbulence-dissipating plate 53 can guide the steam discharged into the preheating box 2 from the steam pipe 3, so that the steam can diffuse to the left and right sides of the steam pipe 3, thereby improving the coverage of the steam. The rotating rod 51 is rotatably connected to the passage of the preheating box 2. A sliding rod 54 is slidably connected to the top of the preheating box 2. A connecting rod 55 is hinged to the outer wall of the sliding rod 54. The end of the connecting rod 55 away from the sliding rod 54 is hinged to the outer wall of the protrusion 52. When the sliding rod 54 slides back and forth, it pushes and pulls the connecting rod 55 back and forth, so that the connecting rod 55 pushes and pulls the protrusion 52 back and forth. 2. At this time, the protrusion 52 will drive the rotating rod 51 to rotate back and forth on the inner wall of the preheating box 2. The outer wall of the rotating shaft 45 is fixedly connected to the sleeve 57. The sleeve 57 and the rotating shaft 45 are in a coaxial state. When the rotating shaft 45 rotates, it will drive the sleeve 57 to rotate synchronously. The outer wall of the sleeve 57 is provided with a cam groove 58. The cam groove 58 is a spiral groove structure with the ends connected. The outer wall of the slide rod 54 is fixedly connected to the ball head rod 56. When the ball head rod 56 pushes and pulls the slide rod 54 back and forth, the slide rod 54 will slide back and forth on the top of the preheating box 2. The end of the ball head rod 56 away from the slide rod 54 is a hemispherical structure. The end of the ball head rod 56 away from the slide rod 54 is attached to the inner wall of the cam groove 58. When the sleeve 57 rotates, the cam groove 58 on its outer wall will press the ball head rod 56 back and forth. At this time, under the guidance of the cam groove 58, the ball head rod 56 will push and pull the slide rod 54 back and forth.
[0035] Working principle: When the wood inside furnace body 1 is in the initial stage of carbonization, the wood to be carbonized is placed inside the rotating drum 41, and the door of the preheating box 2 is closed. Then, the steam pipe 3 is opened through the solenoid valve 31, allowing steam from inside furnace body 1 to enter the preheating box 2 through the steam pipe 3. This allows the steam generated in the initial stage of wood carbonization to fill the interior of the preheating box 2. At the same time, the heat exchange between the heat-conducting fins 42 and the steam gradually raises the temperature of the rotating drum 41, thus preheating the wood inside the rotating drum 41. By preheating the wood, some moisture can be evaporated in advance, thereby... To improve carbonization efficiency and reduce energy consumption, the starting motor 44 drives the rotating shaft 45 to rotate. As the rotating shaft 45 rotates, it drives the gear 46 to rotate synchronously. As the gear 46 rotates, it drives the gear ring 43 that meshes with it to rotate. At this time, the gear ring 43 drives the rotating drum 41 to rotate inside the preheating box 2. As the rotating drum 41 rotates, the wood inside it tumbles inside the rotating drum 41. This not only allows the wood to be heated evenly, but also allows the heat-conducting fins 42 on the outer wall of the rotating drum 41 to be fully covered by steam. This allows the rotating drum 41 to be heated evenly, thus improving the preheating efficiency of the wood.
[0036] While rotating, the shaft 45 drives the sleeve 57 to rotate synchronously. As the sleeve 57 rotates, the cam groove 58 on its outer wall reciprocates and presses against the ball head rod 56. Under the guidance of the cam groove 58, the ball head rod 56 reciprocates and pushes and pulls the slide rod 54, causing the slide rod 54 to slide back and forth on the top of the preheating box 2. While sliding back and forth, the slide rod 54 reciprocates and pushes and pulls the connecting rod 55, causing the connecting rod 55 to reciprocate and push and pull the protrusion 52. At this time, the protrusion 52 drives the rotating rod 51 to rotate back and forth on the inner wall of the preheating box 2. While rotating back and forth, the rotating rod 51 drives the baffle 53 to swing back and forth. The reciprocating swing of the baffle 53 can guide the steam discharged into the preheating box 2 from the steam pipe 3, allowing the steam to diffuse to the left and right sides of the steam pipe 3, thereby increasing the coverage of the steam and allowing the heat-conducting fins 42 on the outer wall of the rotating cylinder 41 to be heated evenly, thereby improving the heating efficiency of the rotating cylinder 41.

Although the present utility model has been described in detail with reference to the foregoing embodiments, those skilled in the art can still modify the technical solutions described in the foregoing embodiments or make equivalent substitutions for some of the technical features.
