“MÓDULO-PLACA PARA INSTALAÇÃO PARA COM POSTAGEM DE RESÍDUOS ORGÂNICOS” “MODULE-PLATE FOR INSTALLATION OF ORGANIC WASTE POSTING”

CAMPO DE APLICAÇÃO FIELD OF APPLICATION

O presente pedido de Patente de Invenção trata de um módulo-placa componente esse destinado a integrar uma instalação para compostagem, a qual tem aplicação na produção de compostos orgânicos, que pode processar materiais orgânicos de origem animal, vegetal e também Iodos industriais que contenham material orgânico sem contam inantes, transformando os mesmos em biofertilizantes que podem ser utilizados na agricultura, fruticultura e silvicultura. O módulo-placa ora proposto integra assim, de modo geral, o campo das instalações para compostagem. This invention patent application relates to a module-plate component designed to integrate a composting facility, which can be used in the production of organic compounds. This module-plate component can process organic materials of animal and plant origin, as well as industrial sludge containing contaminant-free organic material, transforming them into biofertilizers that can be used in agriculture, fruit growing, and forestry. The proposed module-plate component thus falls generally within the scope of composting facilities.

PREÂMBULO PREAMBLE

O módulo-placa ora proposto foi projetado para ser parte integrante de uma instalação para compostagem de resíduos orgânicos, sendo que esse tipo de instalação para compostagem inova pelo fato de aplicar ar sob as grades que se encontram sob a pilha de composto, permitindo a aeração do material, provendo uma fermentação aeróbia, a qual não incorre nos inconvenientes de outros sistemas de compostagem em pilhas tradicionais, onde acontece a fermentação anaeróbia, menos eficiente e produtora de gases como metano e sulfídricos que são lançados diretamente na atmosfera. Não obstante, todo o processo é realizado em ambiente coberto e sem contato manual desde o momento da entrada da matéria prima até a peneiração e carregamento do material acabado. The proposed plate module was designed to be an integral part of an organic waste composting facility. This innovative composting facility applies air under the grates located beneath the compost pile, allowing for aeration of the material and enabling aerobic fermentation. This system avoids the drawbacks of other traditional pile composting systems, which utilize anaerobic fermentation, which is less efficient and produces gases such as methane and hydrogen sulfide, which are released directly into the atmosphere. Nevertheless, the entire process is carried out indoors and without manual contact, from the moment the raw material is introduced to the sifting and loading of the finished material.

O módulo-placa ora proposto é o componente que integra a estrutura da instalação para compostagem, mais especificamente integra as grades modulares de aeração e extração que são responsáveis por permitir que o material já compostado caia por gravidade, ao passo que permite ainda a aeração do material em fase de compostagem. The proposed plate module is the component that integrates the structure of the composting installation, more specifically it integrates the modular aeration and extraction grids that are responsible for allowing the already composted material to fall by gravity, while also allowing the aeration of the material in the composting phase.

ESTADO DA TÉCNICA STATE OF THE TECHNIQUE

Atualmente, para produção de composto orgânico são utilizados sistemas de leiras para manter material orgânico fermentando por períodos que podem variar entre 90 a 240 dias, dependendo do material a ser processado. Este sistema exige máquinas pesadas para fazer a remoção periódica das leiras a fim de homogeneizar e permitir a entrada de ar, para favorecer o processo de fermentação. Currently, organic compost production uses windrow systems to keep organic material fermenting for periods ranging from 90 to 240 days, depending on the material being processed. This system requires heavy machinery to periodically remove the windrows. to homogenize and allow air to enter, to favor the fermentation process.

PROBLEMAS DO ESTADO DA TÉCNICA STATE OF THE TECHNIQUE PROBLEMS

No que diz respeito ao sistema de compostagem a céu aberto, podem ser citados como inconvenientes: o elevado consumo de energia mecânica para remoção das pilhas; a exposição aos fatores ambientais; a dificuldade com o controle do chorume; a dificuldade para prover aeração da pilha; o elevado tempo de residência; a perda de nutrientes, principalmente nitrogênio devido ao tipo de fermentação; infiltração de material orgânico no solo; produção de odores; a dificuldade no controle da umidade do produto final. Estas são apenas algumas das dificuldades em se obter compostos orgânicos mediante emprego das soluções previstas no sistema convencional. Regarding the open-air composting system, the following disadvantages can be cited: high mechanical energy consumption for pile removal; exposure to environmental factors; difficulty controlling leachate; difficulty aerating the pile; long residence time; loss of nutrients, particularly nitrogen, due to the type of fermentation; infiltration of organic material into the soil; production of odors; and difficulty controlling the moisture content of the final product. These are just some of the challenges in obtaining organic compounds using solutions provided by the conventional system.

Visando oferecer uma alternativa mais eficiente do ponto de vista da produção de material compostado, o presente Titular desenvolveu o conceito segundo o qual é viabilizada uma instalação para compostagem que é tratada no pedido de patente BR 10 2024 005016-9, depositado em 14/03/2024 e que tem por título: “INSTALAÇÃO PARA COMPOSTAGEM DE RESÍDUOS ORGÂNICOS”.

DESCRIÇÃO DETALHADA DA INVENÇÃO DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE INVENTION

No âmbito da instalação para compostagem de resíduos orgânicos (IC) doravante referenciada simplesmente como instalação para compostagem (IC), na qual o módulo-placa (1 ) objeto deste pedido de Patente de Invenção é utilizado, o leito de compostagem (LC) fica depositado sobre uma ou mais grades modulares de aeração e extração (2) que são compostas, cada uma, pela montagem justaposta de módulos-placa (1 ), os quais, por sua vez, são posicionados sobre perfis longitudinais estruturais (3) que ficam acomodados sobre a superfície de piso (4) da seção principal (5) da instalação para compostagem de resíduos orgânicos (IC). Within the scope of the installation for composting organic waste (IC) hereinafter referred to simply as composting installation (IC), in which the plate module (1) subject of this Invention Patent application is used, the composting bed (LC) is deposited on one or more modular aeration and extraction grids (2) which are each composed of juxtaposed assembly of plate modules (1), which, in turn, are positioned on structural longitudinal profiles (3) that are accommodated on the floor surface (4) of the main section (5) of the organic waste composting installation (IC).

Os perfis longitudinais estruturais (3) incorporam pés de apoio (6) e são formados, cada um, com um plano inclinado (7), abaixo do qual está uma parede vertical inferior (8), sendo que para cima do mencionado plano inclinado (7) está outra parede vertical superior (9), a qual tem continuidade em um trecho horizontal (10) que atua como sede para o posicionamento dos módulos-placa (1 ). The structural longitudinal profiles (3) incorporate support feet (6) and are each formed with an inclined plane (7), below which is a lower vertical wall (8), and above said inclined plane (7) is another upper vertical wall (9), which continues into a horizontal section (10) that acts as a seat for positioning the plate modules (1).

Os perfis longitudinais estruturais (3) são definidos ainda por uma parede vertical superior (11 ) que define os extremos laterais entre os quais os módulos-placa (1 ) ficam acomodados, sendo que a partir da parede vertical superior (11 ) cada um dos perfis longitudinais estruturais (3) conta com uma borda superior extrema horizontal (12), borda superior extrema horizontal (12) essa que fica substancialmente complanar (em um nível ligeiramente acima) com os planos horizontais superiores (13) dos módulos-placa (1 ) que em conjunto integram a face superior de cada uma das grades modulares de aeração e extração (2). The structural longitudinal profiles (3) are also defined by an upper vertical wall (11) that defines the lateral ends between which the plate modules (1) are accommodated, and from the upper vertical wall (11) each of the structural longitudinal profiles (3) has an extreme upper horizontal edge (12), which extreme upper horizontal edge (12) is substantially coplanar (at a level slightly above) with the upper horizontal planes (13) of the plate modules (1) that together form the upper face of each of the modular aeration and extraction grids (2).

Como pode ser facilmente percebido através da visualização das figuras 12, 15 e 16, a superfície de piso (4) da instalação para compostagem (IC) recebe pares de perfis longitudinais estruturais (3), voltados um para o outro e acomodando, cada par, um conjunto de módulos-placa (1 ) formando assim uma grade modular de aeração e extração (2), de modo que a superfície de piso (4) conte com duas grades modulares de aeração e extração (2) dispostas lado a lado. As can be easily seen by viewing figures 12, 15 and 16, the floor surface (4) of the composting facility (IC) receives pairs of structural longitudinal profiles (3), facing each other and accommodating, each pair, a set of plate modules (1), thus forming a modular aeration and extraction grid (2), so that the floor surface (4) has two modular aeration and extraction grids (2) arranged side by side.

Deve ser ressaltado, entretanto, que o exemplo de concretização da instalação para compostagem (IC) não está limitado ao número de grades modulares de aeração e extração (2) ilustrado, podendo ser facilmente configuradas e dimensionadas instalações para compostagem (IC) com números maiores ou menores de grades modulares de aeração e extração (2) a depender do volume de material compostado (MC) a ser produzido. It should be emphasized, however, that the example of implementation of the composting installation (IC) is not limited to the number of modular aeration and extraction grids (2) illustrated, and composting installations (IC) can be easily configured and dimensioned with larger or smaller numbers of modular aeration and extraction grids (2) depending on the volume of composted material (MC) to be produced.

Cada um dos módulos-placa (1 ) é obtido em concreto e apresenta constituição monobloco sendo definido por uma estrutura de armação metálica interna (1 A) que é encapsulada, no momento da sua moldagem, pelo corpo de concreto (1 B). Cada módulo-placa (1 ) tem nas suas faces de contato frontal e traseira (1 C) e (1 D), respectivamente, extremos definidos como perfis escalonados (1 E) (indicados especificamente na figura 1 ), que permitem que um módulo-placa (1 ) seja montado na sequência de outro exemplar e assim por diante até a obtenção do número desejado para compor a estrutura necessária à grade modular de aeração e extração (2) com o comprimento desejado e definido no projeto da instalação para compostagem (IC), tal como pode ser entendido através da observação da figura 9. Each of the plate modules (1) is made of concrete and has a monoblock structure, defined by an internal metal frame structure (1 A) that is encapsulated, at the time of molding, by the concrete body (1 B). Each plate-module (1 ) has on its front and rear contact faces (1 C) and (1 D), respectively, ends defined as stepped profiles (1 E) (specifically indicated in figure 1 ), which allow a plate-module (1 ) to be assembled following another specimen and so on until the desired number is obtained to compose the structure required for the modular aeration and extraction grid (2) with the desired length and defined in the composting installation project (IC), as can be understood by observing figure 9.

Cada módulo/placa (1 ) é formado pela justaposição defasada de dois planos horizontais superiores (13) e dois planos horizontais inferiores (14), sendo que entre esses dois planos horizontais é mantido um espaçamento vertical (15) garantido pelas paredes laterais (16) e pela parede de ligação central (17). Each module/plate (1) is formed by the offset juxtaposition of two upper horizontal planes (13) and two lower horizontal planes (14), with a vertical spacing (15) maintained between these two horizontal planes, guaranteed by the side walls (16) and the central connecting wall (17).

Tal como pode ser observado (figura 1 ), cada módulo-placa (1 ) tem entre os seus planos horizontais superiores (13) e horizontais inferiores (14) paredes laterais (16), bem como uma parede de ligação central (17), formando assim, um corpo estrutural com elevada resistência mecânica. As can be seen (figure 1), each module-plate (1) has between its upper horizontal (13) and lower horizontal (14) planes side walls (16), as well as a central connecting wall (17), thus forming a structural body with high mechanical resistance.

A instalação para compostagem (IC) incorpora assim uma região de extração, posto que sob o leito de compostagem (LC) encontram-se as grades modulares de aeração e extração (2) que atuam tanto na extração, como também na aeração do material compostado (MC) e que têm como componente principal vários exemplares montados em sequência dos módulo-placa (1 ) objeto deste pedido de Patente de Invenção, uma vez que tais módulo-placa (1 ) permitem a passagem do ar de baixo para cima, através do leito de compostagem (LC) na mesma medida em que permitem o fluxo de cima para baixo do material compostado (MC). The composting installation (IC) thus incorporates an extraction region, since under the composting bed (LC) are the modular aeration and extraction grids (2) that act both in the extraction and in the aeration of the composted material (MC) and that have as their main component several examples assembled in sequence of the module-plates (1) that are the subject of this Invention Patent application, since such module-plates (1) allow the passage of air from bottom to top, through the composting bed (LC) to the same extent that they allow the flow from top to bottom of the composted material (MC).

O fato de que é permitida e na verdade induzida a passagem de ar de baixo para cima através do leito de compostagem (LC) (mediante ação dos ventiladores (18)) cria as condições ideais para os micro-organismos que atuam na fermentação aeróbia da matéria prima (M). O fluxo do ar produzido pelos ventiladores (18) segue em sentido oposto ao do material compostado (MC) que atravessa os módulos-placa (1 ), tal como está esquematicamente indicado na figura 19 através das setas “J” que representam o fluxo de ar. No interior de cada módulo-placa (1 ) são definidas duas galerias horizontais (19), sendo que cada galeria horizontal (19) é definida pelo espaçamento vertical (15) ao longo de todos os módulos-placa (1 ) e abrigam em seu interior um mecanismo raspador (20), o qual movimenta horizontalmente o volume de material compostado (MC) que cai, por gravidade, entre as aberturas horizontais superiores (21 ) e inferiores (22) definidas nos módulos-placa (1 ), por conta dos planos horizontais superiores (13) e Inferiores (14). The fact that the passage of air from bottom to top through the composting bed (LC) is allowed and in fact induced (through the action of the fans (18)) creates the ideal conditions for the microorganisms that act in the aerobic fermentation of the raw material (M). The air flow produced by the fans (18) goes in the opposite direction to that of the composted material (MC) that passes through the plate modules (1), as is schematically indicated in figure 19 by the arrows "J" that represent the air flow. Inside each plate-module (1) two horizontal galleries (19) are defined, with each horizontal gallery (19) being defined by the vertical spacing (15) along all the plate-modules (1) and housing inside a scraper mechanism (20), which horizontally moves the volume of composted material (MC) that falls, by gravity, between the upper (21) and lower (22) horizontal openings defined in the plate-modules (1), due to the upper (13) and lower (14) horizontal planes.

Cada mecanismo raspador (20) é definido por um par de quadros raspadores (23) comandados em movimentos de avanço e retrocesso por intermédio de correntes (24) sendo que esse deslocamento dos quadros raspadores (23) ocorre dentro das galerias horizontais (19) definidas em cada um dos módulos-placa (1 ). Each scraper mechanism (20) is defined by a pair of scraper frames (23) controlled in forward and backward movements by means of chains (24), and this movement of the scraper frames (23) occurs within the horizontal galleries (19) defined in each of the plate modules (1).

As figuras 18 e 19 permitem visualizar um dos quadros raspadores (23) sendo movimentado no interior das galerias (19), sendo que especificamente com relação à figura 18 deve ser entendido que todas as galerias horizontais (19) ficam alinhadas quando os módulos-placa (1 ) estão montados para formar as grades modulares de aeração e extração (2). Figures 18 and 19 allow us to see one of the scraper frames (23) being moved inside the galleries (19). Specifically in relation to figure 18, it should be understood that all the horizontal galleries (19) are aligned when the plate modules (1) are assembled to form the modular aeration and extraction grids (2).

No caso da figura 18 deve ser entendido que as galerias horizontais (19) de cada um dos módulos-placa (1 ) formam, no todo, a totalidade de uma longa galeria horizontal através da qual os quadros raspadores (23) são movimentados para provocar a queda do material compostado (MC) resultante da compostagem da matéria prima (M) depositada sobre o leito de compostagem (LC), material compostado (MC) esse que passa por entre as aberturas horizontais superiores (21 ) e inferiores (22) de cada um dos módulos-placa (1 ), tal como está retratado de forma mais evidente na figura 19. In the case of figure 18, it should be understood that the horizontal galleries (19) of each of the plate modules (1) form, as a whole, the entirety of a long horizontal gallery through which the scraper frames (23) are moved to cause the composted material (MC) resulting from the composting of the raw material (M) deposited on the composting bed (LC) to fall, composted material (MC) that passes between the upper (21) and lower (22) horizontal openings of each of the plate modules (1), as is more clearly depicted in figure 19.

Na referida figura 19, as setas “F” indicam o sentido da queda do material compostado (MC) por entre as aberturas horizontais superiores (21 ); as setas “G” indicam o movimento de avanço e retrocesso do quadro raspador (23) dentro da galeria horizontal (19); e as setas “H” indicam o sentido de queda do material compostado (MC) por entre as aberturas horizontais inferiores (22). In figure 19, arrows “F” indicate the direction in which the composted material (MC) falls through the upper horizontal openings (21); arrows “G” indicate the forward and backward movement of the scraper frame (23) within the horizontal gallery (19); and arrows “H” indicate the direction in which the composted material (MC) falls through the lower horizontal openings (22).

Voltando ao que está retratado na figura 18, pode ser visualizado e entendido que sob a grade modular de aeração e extração (2) corre, dentro do túnel de extração (26), um carrinho de extração (25) que também apresenta movimentos de avanço e retrocesso que são úteis para promover, nos movimentos de avanço, a gradativa remoção do material compostado (MC) do túnel de extração (26) segundo o sentido indicado pela seta “I”. Returning to what is depicted in figure 18, it can be seen and understood that under the modular aeration and extraction grid (2) there runs, inside the extraction tunnel (26), an extraction cart (25) that also presents movements forward and backward movements that are useful for promoting, in the forward movements, the gradual removal of the composted material (MC) from the extraction tunnel (26) in the direction indicated by arrow “I”.

Deve restar claro e evidente o fato de que o objeto deste pedido de patente está focado no módulo-placa (1 ), sendo que as explicações e ilustrações relativas à instalação para compostagem (IC) são apresentadas somente como forma de contextualizar a funcionalidade e a importância do módulo-placa (1 ) tal como proposto, já que todas as características construtivas, de projeto e funcionais da instalação para compostagem (IC) estão devidamente apesentados no pedido de patente BR 10 2024 005016-9. It must be clear and evident that the object of this patent application is focused on the plate-module (1), and that the explanations and illustrations relating to the composting installation (IC) are presented only as a way of contextualizing the functionality and importance of the plate-module (1) as proposed, since all the construction, design and functional characteristics of the composting installation (IC) are duly presented in the patent application BR 10 2024 005016-9.

Com vistas às características técnicas gerais da instalação para compostagem (IC), pode ser observado que a mesma é constituída em concreto armado e apresenta configuração análoga a um galpão (27), que inclui uma seção principal (28), onde ocorre a compostagem e um tanque de recepção matéria prima (29) incorporado ao lado da seção principal (28), onde ocorre a compostagem; a instalação para compostagem (IC) incorpora também uma ponte rolante (30) que sustenta o elevador de canecas (31 ) que atua dentro do tanque de recepção de matéria prima (29); a ponte rolante (30) conta com helicoides revolvedores (32) e incorpora uma calha distribuidora transversal (33) no interior da qual fica montado um transportador helicoidal (34) que distribui a matéria prima (M) oriunda do elevador de canecas (31 ) sobre o leito de compostagem (LC). Regarding the general technical characteristics of the composting facility (IC), it can be observed that it is made of reinforced concrete and has a configuration similar to a shed (27), which includes a main section (28), where composting occurs, and a raw material reception tank (29) incorporated next to the main section (28), where composting occurs; the composting facility (IC) also incorporates an overhead crane (30) that supports the bucket elevator (31) that operates inside the raw material reception tank (29); the overhead crane (30) has revolving helicals (32) and incorporates a transverse distribution chute (33) inside which a helical conveyor (34) is mounted, which distributes the raw material (M) coming from the bucket elevator (31) over the composting bed (LC).
