Abstract
Incineration of an organic chlorine compound is effected by mixing the compound with water or a proper aqueous solution, fluidizing the resultant aqueous mixture and subjecting the fluidized mixture to combustion. For this incineration is used an incinerator which is provided with at least one inlet for admitting the organic chlorine compound and water or the aqueous solution and is adapted to fluidize the mixture of the organic chlorine compound with water or the aqueous solution.
Claims10
A method for the fluidized-solids incineration of an organic chlorine compound, which method comprises:
- causing particles of an inert medium to be fluidized so as to form a fluidized bed,
- controlling the composition of said bed so that the particles of the inert medium for the fluidized bed contain SiO.sub.2 and Al.sub.2 O.sub.3 in a combined concentration of at least 95% by weight and Na.sub.2 O and K.sub.2 O in a combined concentration of not more than 1.0% by weight,
- causing the organic chlorine compound to be admixed into the fluidized bed in conjunction with water or an aqueous solution and simultaneously subjecting the compound to combustion,
- and consequently giving rise to an exhaust gas having an extremely low chlorine gas content.
An incinerator for the fluidized-solids combustion of an organic chlorine compound which comprises:
- a vertical, cylindrical hollow column,
- a perforated dispersion plate disposed in the lower part of the hollow column,
- an inlet disposed below the perforated dispersion plate and adapted to introduce upwardly a current of a gas for fluidization,
- particles of an inert medium mounted on the perforated dispersion plate for the formation of a fluidized bed, wherein said particles containing SiO.sub.2 and Al.sub.2 O.sub.3 in a combined concentratin of at least 95% by weight and Na.sub.2 O and K.sub.2 O in a combined concentration of not more than 1.0% by weight,
- at least one inlet radially disposed in the column wall at a level such that it opens into the hollow column interior at the position destined to come into direct contact with the fluidized bed to be formed of said particles of inert medium whereby the inlet serves to admit a liquid or slurry-like organic chlorine compound and water or an aqueous solution into the column interior,
- an inlet disposed in the column wall at a level such that it opens into the hollow column interior above the position destined to come into direct contact with the fluidized bed to be formed of said particles of inert medium whereby the inlet serves to admit a solid organic chlorine compound into the column interior,
- an outlet disposed in the upper portion of the hollow column and adapted to discharge the exhaust gas of combustion into the ambient air, and
- a burner adapted to elevate the temperature of the incinerator.
