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 vacuum 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 comparatively small -mixing effort.
- the single Figure is a side view, partly in section, through parts of an apparatus for carrying out the method according to the invention.
- a trough 1 having a double paddle screw 2 driven by a motor 3.
- Wastes to be treated are emptied into the trough 1.
- 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.
- the wastes may comprise sticky binders and pigments obtained as a distillation residue from paints, and wastes containing gelled two-component binders.
- Very solid wastes may be involved, even after a gelled top slab or "cake" has been removed.
- a grating may be provided on the top of the trough. It may be necessary to remove this grating if the wastes are especially hard.
- lumps and viscous mass are coarsely broken in water added through nozzles. In this connection the water serves for lubrication, and at the same time it reduces the rate of evaporation of any organic solvents.
- 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.
- 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-combustible 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.
