Claims2
A REACTOR FOR ADVANCED COMBUSTION PROCESS FOR BURNING BIOMASS AND WASTE for treatment of solid waste by burning solid (or liquid) industrial hazardous, chemical, pharmaceutical and industrial combustion waste comprising:
- a reactor that has a complete combustion in a single cylindrical volume, processed under a thermal cyclone effect produced by air nozzles on its inner sidewall, wherein an entire combustion takes place in a single volume;
- and
- a verticalized cylindrical structure comprising three serial sections, which are a central section (1), a dilution and extraction section (2) and a disposal section (3), that are mutually joined by means of flanges and screws (23), wherein the central section (1) being constituted by an internal wall (5) which forms a tubular cylindrical structure surrounded by an external wall (6), whose inferior portion has a progressive diameter reduction, which keeps a spacing in relation to the internal wall (5) and an outermost third wall (7), which interweaves a thermal insulating material (8);
- wherein the central section (1) has a supply duct (9) and a burner (3) which enters a tubular cylindrical structure and a side blower (10) with an output nozzle, which is positioned on the interface between the internal wall (5) and the external wall (6), with the internal wall (5) being equipped with tangential tuyeres (11);
- wherein the dilution and extraction section (2) is attached above the central section (1) by means of a flange with peripheral screws (23), being constituted by an internal wall (13) which forms a tubular cylindrical structure surrounded by an external wall (14), whose superior portion has a diameter reduction, which keeps a spacing in relation to the internal wall (13) and an outermost third wall (15), which interweaves the thermal insulating material (8);
- wherein the dilution and extraction section (2) further comprises:
- an outlet snail (18) in its top, which is connected to the tubular cylindrical structure by means of a diffuser (17), wherein said snail (18) is equipped with safety valves and a side air outlet (20);
- and
- a side blower (12), whose air nozzle is positioned in an interface between the internal wall (13) and the external wall (14), with the internal wall (5) being equipped with tangential tuyeres (16);
- wherein the disposal section (3) is attached below the central section (1) by means of a flange and peripheral screws (23), and said disposal section (3) is constituted by a refractory crucible (21) of a cylindrical type with the external wall (22) of a same diameter as the central section (1);
- and
- wherein between the crucible (21) and the external wall (22) there is an insulating material filler (8), with an interior of the crucible being connected to a suction device (24) whose outlet nozzle is connected to a container (25), with a base of the disposal section (3) having a lid (26).
