Calcining furnace with two calcining modes
The invention relates to a calcining furnace with two calcining modes for calcining carbon materials.
One of the main processes affecting the quality of carbon products is calcination. Currently, there are three main types of equipment used in this process:
the first is a rotary kiln of phi 2200/phi 2500 x 45000 produced by Shanghai Hujiang machinery plant.
The second is a pot furnace, the specification is generally 4 furnace chambers in a group, the furnace chamber loading surface is 1700 x 360 at most, and various combinations can be carried out according to the size of production scale.
The heat sources used by the two calcining furnaces are coal gas and volatile matters overflowing from the raw materials in the calcining process, and the calcining temperature can reach 1300 ℃ at most. The chemical structure of the calcined material can be changed into a planar carbon grid structure from the disordered arrangement of the raw materials, and the finished product is an old-generation product.
The third one is an electric calcining furnace with specification of phi 1930/phi 2280X 6025 and transformer capacity of 1200KVA (the whole technology is introduced from Japan by carbon branch factories of aluminum factories in Guizhou). The furnace has the advantages of realizing high-temperature calcination, wherein the center temperature is 2000 ℃, the edge temperature is 1500 ℃, the chemical structure part of the calcined material is converted into two-dimensional graphite crystal lattices, and the finished products enter second-generation products. However, the furnace has the disadvantages that the calorific value of the volatile matter contained in the raw coal cannot be emptied by white utilization, and the calorific value of the volatile matter is enough to heat the raw material to about 1100 ℃, so that the furnace has high electric energy consumption, large transformer capacity and high primary investment, and a single-phase transformer is adopted, so that the power factor is low, and three-phase imbalance is caused to a power grid.
The three calcining furnaces only have one calcining mode, and the first two calcining modes can utilize the calorific value of volatile components contained in raw materials, but cannot increase the calcining temperature, and do not have calcining quality. The latter method, although high in calcination temperature and qualitatively superior, cannot utilize the calorific value of the volatile components contained in the raw material, and the calorific value is enough to heat the raw material to about 1100 ℃, so that the consumption of electric energy and one-time investment are greatly increased.
The invention aims to provide a calcining furnace which has two calcining modes, saves energy consumption, improves calcining temperature, reduces investment and improves product quality.
The technical scheme of the invention is explained in the following with the accompanying drawings.

The calcining furnace provided by the invention has two calcining modes. The structure for realizing the first calcination method is a known pot furnace, and mainly comprises: the structure for realizing the second calcining mode is an electric calcining furnace (12) which consists of three electrodes (19) and a transformer (24), wherein the three electrodes extend into a furnace shell (13) in the horizontal direction and form an angle of 120 degrees with each other, and the electric calcining furnace (12) is arranged on a cooler (15) arranged at the lower part and is provided with an automatic discharger (16). These are supported by a base (11).
The invention provides a calciner, wherein a plurality of heating flame paths (1) and a plurality of pot walls (2) of a pot-type calciner can be respectively supported by corresponding circular arches (9), a sealing device (18) can be arranged at the joint of three electrodes (19) of an electric calciner (12) and a furnace shell (13), a cooler (15) can adopt an inner-forward and outer-reverse annular circular truncated cone structure, the two circular truncated cones are communicated by a plurality of radial water channels (25) and divide a material cavity between the two circular truncated cones into a plurality of equal parts, and arch angles (10) of the circular arches (9) supporting the pot walls (2) of the flame paths (1) are downwards transited to form the connection of the furnace shell (13) and the electric calciner (12).
The calcining furnace provided by the invention adopts carbon bricks except for the circular arch (9), and adopts high-alumina clay bricks and conventional materials in other structures.
The process of the invention comprises the following steps: firstly, a combustion chamber (6) is started, fuel is added for ignition combustion, and a furnace is baked. At the appropriate stage of the oven, the raw material is fed into a hopper (not shown in the figure) on the upper part of the oven and is filled with a charging bucket (3) and an electric calcining chamber (12), and simultaneously, the heat generated by the combustion of the calcining chamber (6) enables a flame path (1) to be continuously heated to gradually heat the raw material in the charging bucket (3), and the volatile matters contained in the raw material overflow when the temperature of the raw material rises to 200-850 ℃. The overflowed volatile components pass through the volatile component overflow outlet (4) and the volatile component main passage (5), and the volatile component pulling plate bricks (20) are operated through the fire probing holes (21) to control the amount of the volatile components entering the first, second and third fire passages, so that the requirement of the calcining temperature system of the first calcining mode is met. After combustion air is heated by the air preheating channel (14), the air quantity entering the combustion air is controlled by the air pulling plate brick (22). The whole hot flue gas flow, the volatile matter gas flow and the combustion air gas flow are formed by the negative pressure of a chimney or a draught fan. When the temperature of the raw material in the charging bucket between the first flame path and the second flame path reaches about 1100 ℃, the volatile matter overflows stably, and a furnace door (7) and an ash door (8) of a combustion chamber can be closed. Thereafter, the lower automatic discharger (16) is started to gradually discharge the previously added raw materials, and the raw materials in the upper hopper (not shown in the figure) are replenished into the material tank (3), at this time, the calciner of the first calcining mode of the utility model is put into normal operation. When the raw materials with the temperature of about 1100 ℃ enter the three electrodes (19) in the three-phase electric calcining furnace (12) after the calcining, the three-phase electric calcining furnace is switched on and powered on, and a transformer (24) for the three-phase furnace feeds large current into the furnace through a bus (23) to continuously heat the raw materials so that the central temperature of the raw materials reaches 2000 ℃, thereby finishing the aim of high-temperature calcining. Then the raw materials enter a six-cavity cooler (15) to be cooled to below 100 ℃, and qualified calcined materials are discharged through an automatic discharger (16). The calcining furnace with two calcining methods provided by the utility model enters a normal operation state. The newly input raw materials enter the charging bucket from a hopper (not shown in the figure) according to the process and sequentially pass through preheating, volatile matter overflowing, calcining, high-temperature calcining, cooling and discharging qualified calcined materials.
The invention has the following advantages due to the adoption of the structure and the process:
1. the high-temperature calcination of the raw materials is realized, so that the quality of the carbon product enters the second generation.
2. The calcination heat in the temperature range of normal temperature to 1100 ℃ is provided by the volatile components contained in the raw materials, so the calcination energy consumption is saved. Therefore, compared with a Japanese single-phase electric calcining furnace, the electric energy is saved, the capacity of the transformer is reduced, and the primary investment is reduced. Meanwhile, the unbalance of the single-phase electric calcining furnace to the power grid is eliminated due to the adoption of three-phase power supply.
3. The best combination of two calcining modes is realized by adopting the charcoal brick arch to support the flue and the charging bucket of the pot type furnace.
4. The bucket width of 260mm is 100mm less than the minimum width of 360mm, which is usually adopted, and although the volume of the bucket is reduced, the heat conduction efficiency is improved, and the yield can be improved by 33 percent in comparison.
5. And the three electrodes (19) and the furnace shell are sealed in a filling manner, so that the sealing property of the furnace is improved.
6. Compared with a single-cavity cooler adopted in the prior art, the six-cavity cooler (16) has the advantages of high cooling efficiency, small occupied space and capability of directly reducing the height of the whole furnace.
7. The opening amount of the flashboard of the discharge hole can be adjusted at will, thereby realizing the stepless adjustment of the discharge amount.
