Definitions

  • This invention involves amendments to existing oxygen starved Gas Generators by adding a continuous feed auger that delivers a uniform amount of feedstock on to the top step of a specially designed rotating cone shaped burner floor. As the floor rotates at the desired speed with each one third of a round the feedstock is stirred twice and a scraper then moves the ' burning material down to the next step. The longer exposure to heat greatly increases the conversion rate of solids to gases while causing little or no turbulence that could raise particulate levels.
  • a second related and important aspect of this invention described herein was developed to handle the increased amount of gases without creating more particulates or SO 2 emissions. This was achieved by designing an afterburner with more retention time and a more complete mixing of the gases and air. The resulting higher temperature in the afterburner improves its efficiency, while the longer retention time virtually eliminates the combustible particulates and enhances the destruction of unwanted toxins and/or other undesirable elements that may be present in MSW.
  • D(1) Feedstock consisting of Solid Municipal Waste (MSW), tires, wood waste, plastic or other combustible materials are coarse shredded to approximately four inches (1) and conveyed into a hopper (2) that feeds the variable speed auger (3) (FIGURE 1).
  • the feedstock material (1) is fed into the primary chamber (4) by the auger (3) on to the larger top step (5) of the rotating floor.
  • the decomposition process commences immediately (FIGURE 1).
  • the material on the top step is stirred twice by teeth (6) and (7) to improve exposure at 1/3 of a turn intervals and is then scraped off each step onto the next lower step by fixed scrapers (8).
  • This procedure is similar on all the steps (9) on the cone shaped rotating floor in the primary chamber (FIGURE ⁇ .
  • the ashes are removed from the ash chamber (12) by an auger (13) that operates intermittently as required to keep the ash chamber from overfilling. At all times a bed of ash is retained to be sure the combustible material is oxidized and the heat is retained (FIGURE 1).
  • waste heat generated by the burning of the gases can be exhausted out the stack (21) or drawn through steam boilers with an I.D. Fan to provide steam heat or energy to drive a turbine to power a generator. Thus waste to electric energy is achieved (FIGURE 1).
  • the inventions set out herein have the ability to economically convert wastes to electricity, one of the most important commodities in use day and night without which no country on earth can develop industries or provide a reasonable standard of living for its people.

Abstract

Les plus efficaces des différents types brûleurs sont ceux dont la chambre primaire est appauvrie en oxygène et qui convertissent les solides en gaz à brûler dans une chambre de postcombustion. Toutefois, pour être économique, ce meilleur système a besoin d'une capacité horaire accrue. L'accroissement de cette capacité sans recours à l'invention provoque normalement des émissions de particules et de SO2 supérieures à ce qu'autorisent les dispositions légales et administratives. L'invention résout ces problèmes en utilisant un fond de chambres de combustion rotatif de forme conique dont la vitesse de rotation est variable comme pour ceux destinés aux unités (4) appauvries en oxygènes injectant en continu le substrat (1) au moyen d'une vis sans fin (3) à vitesse variable sur le fond rotatif de la chambre de combustion conique. Ici, le fond comporte une série de marches (9) d'escalier dont le nombre est fonction des dimensions de l'unité, ce qui permet d'exposer les solides à la chaleur et d'accélérer le processus de gazéification. L'accroissement de la production de gaz a nécessité l'invention d'une meilleure chambre de postcombustion (15) caractérisée par une aptitude améliorée à mélanger le gaz à l'air, par une période de rétention suffisante garantissant la complète combustion des particules combustibles, et par une meilleure aptitude à détruire d'autres éléments indésirables à une température élevée pouvant atteindre 2400 °F.
