Nad zgornjim tekočim trakom so izvedene tudi pregrade (8), ki preprečujejo vzdolžni tok torefikacijskih plinov nad tekočim trakom z biomaso. Pri torefikaciji biomase nastali plini se vodijo v plinski gorilnik (15), kjer se z dimnimi plini preko cevnega prenosnika segrevajo torefikacijski plini, ki se nato preko cevnega sistema vodijo v medprostor enega alidveh tekočih trakov. Da se omogoči prisilni tok torefikacijskih plinov skozi perforiran tekoči trak, se pred prenosnikom toplote (16), kjer se torefikacijski plini segrevajo vgradi ventilator oziroma puhalo na elektromotorni pogon (EM). Dimni plini, ki izstopajo iz prenosnika toplote (16), kjer se segrevajo torefikacijski plini, se nato vodijo v drug prenosnik toplote (12) v katerem se predgreva zrak (A), ki vstopa v plinski gorilnik (15). Iz prenosnika toplote (16) se segreti dimni plini vodijo po ceveh vprednostni izvedbi v spodnji in zgornji medprostor tekočega traku, v sekundarni izvedbi pa v medprostor tekočega traku.

Description
METODA IN NAPRAVA ZA TOREFIKACIJO BIOMASEMETHOD AND DEVICE FOR BORROWING BIOMASS
Področje tehnikeThe field of technology
Predmet izuma se nanaša na metodo in napravo za torefikacijo biomase, kjer se biomasa na tekočih trakovih segreva s torefikacijskimi plini na zahtevano temperaturo pri kateri poteka torefikacija biomase. Torefactija je termična obdelava biomase pri temperaturi 200 do 300°C (nizkotemperaturna piroliza) v inertni atmosferi, kjer se iz biomase v obliki torefikacijskih plinov izločijo hlapni produkti biomase. Med tem procesom se 70% biomase ohrani kot trden produkt, ki vsebuje 90% začetne energijske vrednosti. Produkt, ki ga dobimo je toreficirana biomasa, ki ima večjo energijsko gostoto od biomase, ni higroskopna, biološko nerazgradljiva, se lažje melje, oblikuje v brikete in pelete, ter je varna pred samovžigom, zaradi česar jo je lažje skladiščiti in transportirati.The subject of the invention relates to a method and apparatus for biomass torrefaction, where the biomass on conveyor belts is heated by torrefaction gases to the required temperature at which the biomass torrefaction takes place. Torrefaction is the thermal treatment of biomass at a temperature of 200 to 300 ° C (low temperature pyrolysis) in an inert atmosphere, where volatile biomass products are extracted from biomass in the form of torefy gases. During this process, 70% of the biomass is retained as a solid product containing 90% of the initial energy value. The product obtained is torefined biomass, which has a higher energy density than biomass, is not hygroscopic, biodegradable, easier to grind, forms into briquettes and pellets, and is safe from self-ignition, making it easier to store and transport.
Prikaz problemaView the problem
Tehnični problem, ki ga obravnava predmet te patentne prijave predstavlja pomanjkanje metode in naprave za učinkovito torefikacijo biomase. Obstoječe naprave za torefikacijo biomase ne zagotavljajo kvalitetnega produkta zaradi neenakomernega poteka torefikacije biomase. Predmet izuma se nanaša na metodo in napravo za torefikacijo biomase, kjer se v termično izolirani plinotesni komori biomasa na perforiranih tekočih trakovih segreva s torefikacijskimi plini na temperaturo pri kateri poteka torefikacija biomase. Vroči torefikacijski plini se dovajajo v medprostor tekočih trakov in potujejo skozi perforiran tekoči trak na katerega je naložena biomasa. Pri tem se del torefikacijskih plinov, ki nastanejo pri torefikaciji vodi v plinski gorilnik, kjer se pri njihovem zgorevanju nastala toplota uporablja za segrevanje torifikacijskih plinov, ki v torefikacijski napravi krožijo s pomočjo vgrajenega ventilatorja oziroma puhala. Prenos toplote s torefikacijskih plinov na biomaso se vrši s prisilno konvekcijo vročih torefikacijskih plinov. Potek torefikacije se regulira z regulacijo hitrosti tekočih trakov, pretokom torefikacijskih plinov skozi biomaso in temperaturo na katero se segrevajo torefikacijski plini, ki krožijo v torefikacijski napravi.A technical problem addressed by the subject matter of this patent application is the lack of a method and apparatus for the efficient biomass toxification. Existing biomass torrefaction devices do not provide a quality product due to the uneven course of biomass torrefaction. The subject of the invention relates to a method and apparatus for biomass torrefaction, in which in a thermally insulated gas-tight chamber the biomass is heated on perforated conveyor belts by the torrefaction gases to the temperature at which the biomass torrefaction takes place. Hot torque gases are introduced into the space of the conveyor belts and pass through a perforated biomass loaded conveyor belt. In this case, part of the torrefaction gases resulting from the torrefaction is directed to a gas burner where the heat generated during their combustion is used to heat the torrefaction gases circulating in the torrefaction device by means of a built-in fan or blower. The transfer of heat from biorefined gases to biomass is carried out by the forced convection of hot biofuels. The course of torrefaction is regulated by the regulation of the velocity of the conveyor belts, the flow of the torrefaction gases through the biomass and the temperature at which the torrefaction gases circulating in the torrefaction device are heated.
Stanje tehnikeThe state of the art
Mednarodni register intelektualne lastnine obsega večje število relevantnih rešitev, pri čemer patent W02013003599A3 predvideva torefikacijo biomase v reaktorski posodi pod tlakom 3 bare, biomasa pa v reaktorju potuje preko navpično naloženih pladnjev, kar se bistveno razlikuje od predlagane patentne rešitve. Patent W02007078199A1 predvideva pokončni torefikacijski reaktor, kjer se biomasa dovaja od zgoraj, toreficirana pa zapušča reaktor od spodaj. Ob strani se skozi odprtine v reaktor dovajajo vroči plini, ki segrevajo biomaso do potrebne temperature torefikacije. Opisana tehnična rešitev se bistveno razlikuje od predlagane patentne rešitve. Patent US20080223269A1 predvideva neskončen transportni trak, kjer poteka torefikacija biomase skozi trak s kondukcijo, to je skozi steno tekočega traku, kar pa se bistveno razlikuje od predlagane patentne rešitve, kjer poteka torefikacija biomase s konvekcijo.The International Intellectual Property Register comprises a number of relevant solutions, with patent W02013003599A3 providing for biorefining of biomass in a reactor vessel at a pressure of 3 bar, and biomass in the reactor traveling through vertically loaded trays, which is significantly different from the proposed patent solution. Patent W02007078199A1 provides an upright torrefaction reactor where biomass is fed from above and torefactor leaves the reactor from below. By the side, hot gases are introduced into the reactor through the openings, which heat the biomass to the required torrefaction temperature. The technical solution described differs significantly from the proposed patent solution. US20080223269A1 envisages an endless conveyor belt, where biomass torrefaction occurs through a conduction band, that is, through a conveyor wall, which is significantly different from the proposed patent solution where convection biomass torrefaction takes place.

Naprava po izumu v prednostni izvedbi obsega termično izolirano plinotesno komoro v katero je vgrajen najmanj eden, prednostno dva perforirana tekoča trakova, na katerih se izvaja torefikacija biomase, prenosnik toplote, kjer se plini, ki nastanejo pri torefikaciji segrevajo in vodijo v komoro z enim, prednostno z najmanj dvema tekočima trakovoma. Pri torefikaciji biomase nastali plini se vodijo v plinski gorilnik, kjer se z dimnimi plini preko cevnega prenosnika segrevajo torefikacijski plini, ki se nato preko cevnega sistema vodijo v medprostor enega ali dveh tekočih trakov. Da se omogoči prisilni tok torefikacijskih plinov skozi perforiran tekoči trak in biomaso, se pred prenosnikom toplote, kjer se torefikacijski plini segrevajo vgradi ventilator oziroma puhalo. Dimni plini, ki izstopajo iz prenosnika toplote, kjer se segrevajo torefikacijski plini, se nato vodijo v drug prenosnik toplote v katerem se predgreva zrak, ki vstopa v gorilnik torefikacijskih plinov. Biomasa se v torefikacijsko napravo dovaja z vijačnim transporterjem, kjer se preko vgrajene razporejevalne naprave enakomerno porazdeli na perforiran trak. Nad trakom so izvedene regulacijske lopute ali rešetke, s katerimi se regulira izstop torefikacijskih plinov v zbirni kanal. Nad zgornjim tekočim trakom so izvedene tudi pregrade, ki preprečujejo vzdolžni tok torefikacijskih plinov nad tekočim trakom z biomaso. Na koncu zbirnega kanala se višek nastalih torefikacijskih plinov vodi v gorilnik, preostali del, pa se s pomočjo ventilatorja oziroma puhala vodi v prenosnik toplote, kjer se segrevajo z dimnimi plini plinskega gorilnika. Iz prenosnika toplote se segreti dimni plini vodijo po ceveh v prednostni izvedbi v spodnji in zgornji medprostor tekočega traku, v sekundarni izvedbi pa v medprostor tekočega traku. Pretok vročih torefikacijskih plinov v medprostor enega ali dveh tekočih trakov se regulira glede na zahtevane pogoje torefikacije. Pod prenosnik toplote s katerim se segrevajo torefikacijski plini je vgrajen konusni zbiralnik prahu, ki ga prinašajo torefikacijski plini. Toreficirana biomasa se iz torefikacijske naprave odvaja s vijačnim transporterjem. Prašni delci, ki padajo skozi perforiran tekoči trak na dno torefikacijske naprave se zbirajo na koncu in odvajajo iz torefikacijske naprave preko konusnega zbiralnika. Na spodnji del vsakega tekočega traku je vgrajena naprava za čiščenje perforacij tekočega traku. V nadaljevanju je bistvo izuma podrobneje opisano s pomočjo priloženih slik in z razlago prednostne izvedbe.The device according to the invention in a preferred embodiment comprises a thermally insulated gas-tight chamber in which at least one, preferably two perforated conveyor belts are installed, on which biomass torrefaction is carried out, a heat exchanger, where the gases resulting from the torrefaction are heated and directed into the chamber by one, preferably with at least two conveyors. When biomass torefy the gases produced, they are led to a gas burner, where flue gases are heated through the tube gearbox to heat the gases, which are then fed through the pipe system to the space of one or two conveyors. In order to allow for the forced flow of torefy gases through the perforated conveyor belt and biomass, a fan or blower is installed in front of the heat exchanger, where the torefy gases are heated. The flue gases exiting the heat exchanger, where the torrefaction gases are heated, are then diverted to another heat exchanger in which the air entering the torrefaction gas burner is preheated. The biomass is fed to the torrefying device by a screw conveyor, where it is evenly distributed to the perforated strip through the integrated scheduling device. Above the strap, control flaps or bars are used to regulate the discharge of toxification gases into the collecting duct. Barriers are also provided above the upper conveyor belt to prevent the longitudinal flow of toxification gases over the biomass conveyor belt. At the end of the collecting duct, the excess of the resulting toxification gases is directed to the burner, and the remainder is channeled to the heat exchanger by means of a fan or blower, where they are heated by the flue gases of the gas burner. From the heat exchanger, the heated flue gases are piped in a preferred embodiment into the lower and upper spaces of the conveyor belt and, in the secondary embodiment, into the spaces between the conveyors. The flow of hot torque gases into the interspace of one or two conveyors is regulated according to the required torque conditions. Below the heat exchanger with which the torrefying gases are heated is a conical dust collector, which is supplied by the torrefying gases. The peat biomass is separated from the torrefaction device by a screw conveyor. Dust particles that fall through the perforated conveyor belt to the bottom of the torrefaction device are collected at the end and discharged from the torrefaction device via a conical sump. The bottom of each conveyor is equipped with a device for cleaning the perforations of the conveyor. The following will now be described in greater detail by way of the accompanying drawings and an explanation of the preferred embodiment.

Pogonski sklop tekočih trakov je frekvenčno reguliran, da se čas zadrževanja biomase v torefikacijski napravi prilagaja zahtevanim fizikalno kemijskim parametrom torefikacije biomase. Torefikacijski plini se odvajajo skozi regulacijske lopute oziroma rešetke 5 v zbirni kanal 6, kjer se zbirajo in vodijo do ventilatorja oziroma puhala z elektromotornim pogonom EM s katerim se vrši prisilni tok preko cevnega registra prenosnika toplote 16, kjer se torefikacijski plini segrejejo in nato vodijo preko regulacijske lopute 21 in 7 v medprostor spodnjega in zgornjega tekočega traku. Višek nastalih torefikacijskih plinov se vodi po cevi 14 v plinski gorilnik 15, katerega dimni plini se vodijo v cevni register prenosnika toplote 16, nato pa v cevni register prenosnika toplote 12, kjer se vrši predgrevanje zraka A, ki se dovaja v gorilnik 15. Ohlajeni dimni plini se nato vodijo v okolje 11. V primeru previsoke temperature segrevanja torefikacijskih plinov v prenosniku toplote 16 se del dimnih plinov plinskega gorilnika 15 vodi v okolje, kar na sliki 1 ni posebej označeno. Ena ali več pregrad 8 so nad zgornji tekoči trak vgrajene za preprečevanje vzdolžnega toka torefikacijskih plinov s čimer lahko z loputami oziroma rešetkami 5 reguliramo pretok torefikacijskih plinov skozi perforiran tekoči trak in biomaso na vsakem odseku med pregradami 8 posebej. V prenosniku toplote segreti torefikacijski plini se po cevi 20 preko regulacijskih loput 21 in 7 dovajajo v medprostor spodnjega in zgornjega tekočega traku. Z regulacijo pretoka dovajanja segretih torefikacijskih plinov v medprostor spodnjega in zgornjega tekočega traku lahko reguliramo proces torefikacije biomase. Potek torefikacije biomase v torefikacijski napravi se spremlja z merjenjem temperature torefikacijskih plinov nad biomaso naloženo na tekočih trakovih in na podlagi teh podatkov se regulira loputa 21 in 7 za dovod torefikacijskih plinov v spodnji in zgornji medprostor tekočih trakov. V prenosniku toplote 16 segreti torefikacijski plini, ki se preko regulacijskih loput 20 in 7 dovajajo v medprostor spodnjega in zgornjega tekočega traku prehajajo skozi perforiran tekoči trak in skozi torefikacijsko biomaso in jo pri tem segrevajo 22.

Za čiščenje perforacije tekočih trakov je vgrajen sistem čiščenja zgornjega tekočega traku 19 in spodnjega tekočega traku 23. Prašni delci, ki prihajajo s torefikacijskimi plini v prenosnik toplote 16 se zbirajo v konusnem zbiralniku prašnih delcev 17 in po potrebi odvajajo iz torefikacijske naprave. Za odstranjevanje delcev, ki padajo skozi perforiran tekoči trak je izveden konusni zbiralnik delcev 18. Toreficirana biomasa, ki zapušča spodnji tekoči trak, se zbira v konusnem zbiralniku, od koder se s vijačnim transporterjem 24 odvaja iz torefikacijske naprave 25.The torrefaction device in the preferred embodiment shown in Figure 1 comprises a thermally insulated gas-tight chamber 10 into which two perforated conveyor belts 9 are installed, on which the loaded biomass is transported and heated by the torrefaction gases to the temperature necessary for the easy pyrolysis of the biomass - torrefaction. The biomass, which must be of adequate granulation, is fed into a thermally insulated gas-tight chamber 10 from a conical container for biomass filling 1 with a screw conveyor 2 to a device for evenly distributing biomass to the conveyor belt 3. The conveyor drive assembly is frequency controlled to allow the residence time adjusts biomass in the torrefaction device to the required physicochemical parameters of biomass torrefaction. The torrefaction gases are discharged through the control flaps or grilles 5 into the collecting duct 6, where they are collected and led to a fan or blower with an electromotor drive EM, which exerts a forced flow through the tube register of the heat exchanger 16, where the torrefaction gases are heated and then passed through control flaps 21 and 7 into the space between the lower and upper conveyor belts. The excess toxification gas produced is led through a pipe 14 into a gas burner 15, the flue gases of which are led to the tube register of the heat exchanger 16, and then to the tube register of the heat exchanger 12, where preheating of air A is supplied to the burner 15.

By regulating the flow of the supply of heated torque gases into the space between the lower and upper conveyor belts, the process of biomass torrefaction can be regulated. The course of biomass torrefaction in the torrefaction device is monitored by measuring the temperature of the torrefaction gases above the biomass loaded on the conveyor belts, and on the basis of these data the flap 21 and 7 for the inlet of the torrefaction gases into the lower and upper spaces of the conveyor belts are regulated. In the heat exchanger 16, heated torrefaction gases, which are passed through the perforated conveyor belt and through the torrefaction biomass through the control flaps 20 and 7, and thus heated 22. The flow through the biomass on individual sections of the conveyor belt is regulated regulating the flow of torefying gases through the flaps or grilles 5. A system for cleaning the upper conveyor belt 19 and the lower conveyor belt 23 is installed to clean the perforation of the conveyor belts. and if necessary discharged from the torrefaction device. For removal of particles falling through the perforated conveyor belt, a conical particle collector 18 is made. Torrefied biomass leaving the lower conveyor belt is collected in a conical reservoir, from which it is discharged from the screw conveyor 25 with a screw conveyor 24.

As an energy source for the thermal biomass torrefaction process, the torrefaction gases generated by the biomass torrefaction process are used. For the smooth flow of biomass toxification in a topping device, the biomass must be of adequate granulation so that it does not fall through the perforated conveyor belt, to which the biomass is evenly distributed throughout the perforated conveyor belt width 3. To prevent clogging of the perforated surface of the conveyor, a system for cleaning the perforations of the conveyor shall be installed. Dried biomass must be fed into the torrefying device. In the case of excessively moist biomass, an additional source of heat is required, which can be provided by the combustion of peat biomass. The torrefaction device can be made in a compact container design, allowing transport to the area where the biomass is produced. The following are some key findings and features of the apparatus and method of the invention, which are of particular importance for determining the scope of patent protection or for making claims.

Hitrost toka vročih torefikacijskih plinov skozi prenosnik toplote 16 se regulira s frekvenčno regulacijo elektromotornega pogona ventilatorja oziroma puhala. Temperatura vročih torefikacijskih plinov, ki zapuščajo prenosnik toplote 16 se pri previsoki temperaturi regulira z delnim odvajanjem dimnih plinov iz plinskega gorilnika 15 v okolje, pri prenizki temperaturi, pa je potreben dodatni vir toplote, ki se lahko pridobi z zgorevanjem proizvedene toreficirane biomase. Za doseganje čim boljšega termičnega izkoristka torefikacijskih plinov v plinskem gorilniku 15 se z odpadno toploto dimnih plinov, ki se iz prenosnika toplote 16 vodijo v prenosnik toplote 12, predgreva zrak A, ki se uporablja za zgorevanje torefikacijskih plinov v plinskem gorilniku 15.As follows, the device according to the invention may comprise one or two liquid perforated strips to which the biomass that is thermally treated to the desired product is distributed evenly. In order to achieve good product quality, the speed of one or more conveyor belts is controlled in the torrefying device, the flow of the torrefying gases with flaps or bars 5 through individual sections of the conveyor is limited by barriers 8. In the first preferred solution, the control is also carried out with flaps through which they deliver hot torque gases into the space between the first and second conveyors. The flow rate of hot torque gases through the heat exchanger 16 is controlled by the frequency control of the electric motor drive of the fan or blower. The temperature of the hot torque gases leaving the heat exchanger 16 is regulated at too high a temperature by partially releasing the flue gases from the gas burner 15 to the environment, and at too low a temperature an additional source of heat can be obtained, which can be obtained by combustion of the produced torrefied biomass. In order to maximize the thermal recovery of the torrefaction gases in the gas burner 15, the exhaust air A used for combustion of the torrefaction gases in the gas burner 15 is preheated by the waste heat of the flue gases from the heat exchanger 16 to the heat exchanger 12.
Omeniti še velja, da je krmiljenje toplotnih tokov v predstavljenem sistemu lahko izvedeno z napredno elektronsko nadzorno-regulacijsko opremo, ki obsega večje število temperaturnih senzorjev, frekvenčno reguliranih elektromotorjev s katerimi se regulira hitrost vijačnih transporterjev za dovod surove biomase v proces in odvajanje toreficirane biomase iz torefikacijske naprave, hitrost tekočih trakov, pretok torefikacijskih plinov z ventilatorjem ali puhalom skozi prenosnik toplote 16, elektromotorno krmiljenih loput ali rešetk in druge procesne opreme.It is worth mentioning that the control of the heat fluxes in the presented system can be performed with advanced electronic control and control equipment, comprising a large number of temperature sensors, frequency controlled electric motors, which regulate the speed of screw conveyors for the feed of raw biomass into the process and the discharge of the torqued biomass from torrefaction devices, conveyor velocity, flow of torrefaction gases with a fan or blower through a heat exchanger 16, electromotor-controlled flaps or grilles and other process equipment.
