BRIEF DESCRIPTION OF THE DRAWINGS

FIG. 1 is a perspective view of a dry coal powder gasification furnace according to a preferred embodiment of the present invention.

DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE PREFERRED EMBODIMENT

Referring to FIG. 1 of the drawings, a dry coal powder gasification furnace according to a preferred embodiment of the present invention is illustrated, in which the dry coal powder gasification furnace comprises a gasification furnace body 1 for hot and dirty coal gas and a hot and dirty gas reforming and cleaning furnace body 2. The gasification furnace body 1 for hot and dirty coal gas is a fluidized high temperature furnace. The liquid is sprayed through a plurality of side nozzles and the steam and oxygen or high temperature air is blown upwardly and inclinedly. There is a gasification chamber 3 in the upper part of the gasification furnace body 1 and a settling chamber 4 in the lower part of the gasification furnace body 1. The gasification chamber 3 adopts refractory inner liner and heat-insulating outer liner, and the settling chamber 4 adopts water-cooled wall liner. The gasification chamber 1 is connected to and communicated with the reforming and cleaning furnace body 2 on a lower part thereof through a connecting channel 5. The reforming and cleaning furnace body 2 adopts refractory inner liner and heat-insulating outer liner. The coal gas is discharged from the top of the reforming and cleaning furnace body 2. There is a plurality of coal gas nozzles 9 on the upper part of the gasification furnace body 1. The plurality of coal gas nozzles 9 is connected and communicated with a coal-spraying pipe 8. A plurality of gas nozzles 10 connected to the gasification chamber 3 is mounted on the upper part of the gasification furnace body 1 and below the coal powder nozzles 9. A plurality of regulating gasification nozzles 11 connected to the gasification chambers 3 are mounted on the middle part of the gasification furnace body 1 and below the multiple gas nozzles 10. The dried coal that is crushed by the coal grinding machine is feed into the loading lock hopper 6, and into a coal-spraying pipe 8 through a screw feeder 7. High temperature steam is inputted into the coal-spraying pipe 8, and sprays the coal powder into the gas gasification chamber 3 through the coal powder nozzles 9. The steam is preheated by a high efficient steam preheater, and the air is preheated by a high efficient air heater. The preheated high temperature air or oxygen and steam are sprayed into the gas gasification chamber 3 through the gas nozzles 10 below the coal-spraying pipe 8. The high temperature steam and air sprayed from the gas nozzles 10 are fully mixed with the coal power. The regulating gasification nozzles 11 spray high temperature air or oxygen into the furnace to adjust the production of the reaction. The raw coal gas produced in the reaction enters into the reforming and cleaning furnace body 2. The slag in the raw coal gas enters into the settling chamber 4 due to gravity. A plurality of cool nozzles 12 are provided in the lower part of the settling chamber 4 for spraying low temperature steam thereinto. A water-cooled wall 13 is provided in the settling chamber 4. A slag outlet 14 is provided on a bottom of the settling chamber 4, and a discharging lock hopper 15 is provided on the slag outlet 14. The slag is solidified through the water-cooled wall 13 and the solidified slag is discharged out of the furnace through the discharging lock hopper 15. The raw coal gas enters into the reforming and cleaning furnace body 2 through the connecting channel 5. A water-cooling grate 19 is mounted in the middle part of the reforming and cleaning furnace body 2. A feeding bell 16 is provided on the top of the reforming and cleaning furnace body 2 and an air outlet 20 is provided on the feeding bell. Add a certain amount of coke mixed with lime into the furnace through the feeling bell 16. When passing through the coke, the unreacted steam in the raw coal gas is decomposed into hydrogen and CO, part of the CO2 can be reduced into CO, and H2S can be absorbed by the lime. The reduced coal gas is discharged outside of the furnace through air outlet 20 above the reforming and cleaning furnace body 2. A plurality of cool nozzles 17 and discharging lock hopper 18 are provided on a bottom of the reforming and cleaning furnace body 2. The low temperature steam solidifies the slag produced in the reaction of the coke and gas, and the slag is discharged outside of the furnace through the discharging lock hopper 18. The residual heat of the gas output from the reforming and cleaning furnace body 2 is recollected, the dust of the gas is eliminated, and the TRT residual pressure of the gas is used to generate electricity. After these steps, the gas is stored in a medium pressure tank to be used by the consumer.
