Definitions

  • the present invention relates to a method for destruction of problematic wastes from the paint and lacquer industry, the plastics materials industry, the metal industry, the wood pulp industry, the shipping industry, petrochemical plants etc., i.e. wastes of the type discarded paints, paint sludge, greasy wastes, distillation residues etc., possibly containing oil sludge, organic compounds, etc.
  • wastes are called "problematic wastes"
  • problems have till now been involved in handling of such wastes for disposal and/or destruction.
  • the wastes are largely solid, viscous or sticky materials which are non-pumpable, the viscosity being above 100.000 cP and the solid matter content being close to 100%, usually about 80%.
  • Such materials have previously been incinerated in rotary furnaces of the same type as the cement kilns used for calcining cement.
  • the material is fed to the upper end of the inclined rotary furnace, and at the same time oil is burned in order to increase the temperature and thereby enhance the combustion of the wastes.
  • Such rotary furnace plants are extremely large and expensive. They operate with a large surplus of air and the efficiency is relatively low.
  • the object of the invention is to provide a method for destruction of such problematic wastes, which method may be carried out in substantially smaller and cheaper plants, and which can produce heat with greater efficiency.
  • wastes may be dispersed with water, whereby the wastes become pumpable and may be used as fuel in burners similar to oil burners.
  • the water will primarily have a lubricating effect and thereby prevent clogging of pumps and pipes.
  • the invention consists in that the waste by mechanical mixing and, if required, by tearing and/or comminuting are dispersed in water to saturation, preferably to a water content of 20 to 40%, whereby a pumpable dispersion is obtained, which may be used as a fuel.
  • the problematic wastes may for instance be received in large barrels which are emptied into a trough having a paddle screw for coarsely breaking lumps and viscous mass with addition of water through nozzles for lubrication and reduction of the rate of evaporation of solvents, whereupon the coarsely broken mass is treated in a high speed mixer with addition of further water for comminuting lumps and preparing a homogeneous solution and dispersion in the water.
  • a mixture having a solid matter content of about 50% and a viscosity of below 1500 cP.
  • the pumpable dispersion obtained in the high speed mixture is drawn, by vac ⁇ um into a combined pressure/vacuum tank, and a new charge is fed to the high speed mixer for comminuting and dispersing.
  • the pumpable dispersion in the pressure/vacuum tank is forced through a self-cleaning filter to a storage tank in which continuous agitation is preferably effected. Even without continuous agitation the ingredients in the mixture will separate only to a small degree, and the dispersion may therefore at any time be re-established by a comparably small mixing effort.
  • Fig. 1 is a side view, partly in section, through parts of an apparatus for carrying out the method according to the invention.
  • Figs. 2 and 3 illustrate examples of problematic wastes which may be destructed according to the invention.
  • Figs. 4, 5 and 6 illustrate the emptying of barrels with problematic wastes into a trough having a paddle screw.
  • Figs. 7 and 8 illustrate the homogeneous mixture obtained in the high speed mixer.
  • a trough 1 having a double paddle screw 2 driven by a motor 3.
  • Wastes to be treated are emptied into the trough 1.
  • Examples of the type of wastes to be treated appear from figs. 2 to 6.
  • the wastes may be supplied in barrels which after opening are lifted onto a support adjacent to the trough.
  • the support may be somewhat tilted in order to make the contents settle slowly from the barrels. Such settling will usually take place if recourse is had to time, since even viscous wastes are usually emptied in about one hour's time. If the wastes are extremely hard, hand tools may be used to accelerate the emptying operation as indicated in fig. 4.
  • Fig. 2 illustrates sticky binders and pigments obtained as a distillation residue from paints
  • fig. 3 illustrates wastes containing gelled two-component binders.
  • Fig. 5 illustrates that very solid wastes may be involved, even after a gelled top slab or "cake" has been removed.
  • a sluice gate 4 which may be raised in order to allow greater or smaller portions of the contents of the trough to flow into a high speed mixer 5 consisting of a container equipped with an agitating device 6 mounted on a vertical shaft 7.
  • a high speed mixer 5 consisting of a container equipped with an agitating device 6 mounted on a vertical shaft 7.
  • the agitating device will comminute solid lumps and dissolve and disperse them in the water.
  • a mixture as illustrated in fig. 7 may be obtained, said mixture having a solid matter content of about 50% and a viscosity of below 1500 cP.
  • Fig. 8 illustrates the viscosity of the dispersed mixture obtained.
  • Such a mixture or dispersion is pumpable and is pumped into a combined pressure/vacuum tank 8.
  • the pumpable dispersion in the pressure/vacuum tank is forced through a self-cleaning filter (not shown) and further to a storage tank.
  • a self-cleaning filter (not shown)
  • metal chips and stones which may cause difficulties in burner nozzles, are separated. Only insignificant amounts of the mixture in the order of a few ppm are retained by the filter.
  • the dispersion may be pumped direct to special atomizing nozzles in a combustion chamber in order to utilize the heat energy in the wastes.
  • the dispersion may be transported in tank lorries to combustion plants in for instance manufacturing companies which may use the heat energy produced. This energy will of course be somewhat reduced because of the addition of water, but this reduction is more than balanced by the fact that a consistency of the wastes has been obtained which allows pumping and combustion in waste burners.
  • the flue gases are relatively easy to clean, which is probably due to the fact that the atomizing obtained produces an agglomeration of non-combustable particles after the combustion zone, so that the size of the solid particles in the flue gases is increased. If the flue gases should be acid, they may easily be neutralized by the addition of for instance caustic soda, NaOH, to the mixture.
  • the surplus of air may be reduced to approximately stoichiometric ratios. More. specifically the air surplus may be about 15%, meaning that the ratio between the actual and stoichiometric amounts of air is about 1.15 as opposed to about 2 in a fluidized bed combustion and 3-4 in a combustion in a rotary furnace.
  • the small surplus of air in connection with the high water content will reduce possible formation of free chlorine. Any chlorine molecules will agglomerate with the flue particles and may be caught in bag filters.
  • the original wastes may contain solvents of class A and B. These solvents are usually present as a relatively small part of the mixture, but still warrant a classification as A or B liquid. In this connection the additional water will inhibit the evaporation of solvents because of the vapour partial pressure of the water and increase the flashing point of solvents which are miscible with water.
  • the risk of reaction between the various compounds in the mixture has proved to be small. This may be due to the fact that water is a good heat conductor and that water reduces the contact between the compounds.

Abstract

De maniere a detruire des dechets embarrassants tels que des peintures, des boues de peinture, des dechets graisseux, des residus de distillation etc. mous au rebut, contenant eventuellement des boues de petrole, des composes organiques etc., ces dechets, apres dechirement et/ou fragmentation, si necessaire, sont disperses dans de l'eau jusqu'a saturation, de preference jusqu'a une teneur en eau de 20 a 40%, permettant ainsi d'obtenir une dispersion pompable qui peut etre utilisee comme combustible.
