Definitions
- the present invention relates to a method of cleansing dust-laden gases in accordance with preamble of Claim 1.
- the invention also relates to apparatus for carrying out the method.
- the object of the present invention is to provide a method and apparatus which will not be affected by high temperatures and which will enable dust-laden gases to be cleansed or purified electro- statically in a particularly advantageous manner, even when these gases have very high temperatures.
- This object is achieved with the method and apparatus defined in the characterizing clauses of re ⁇ spective method and apparatus Claims.
- the following advantages are among those that are afforded by the invention.
- the inventive method and apparatus provides both techni ⁇ cal and economical advantages.
- the method and appara- tus enable highly effective cleansing of very hot process gases whose temperatures are in the order of 700°C or even higher.
- the apparatus is very reliable in operation and requires the minimum of maintenance. Very good cleansing results can be achieved and so- called thermic separation of different components can be performed.
- the gas has a very low pressure drop through the gas-cleansing apparatus.
- the collector electrodes can be cleaned continuously in spite of the high temperatures involved.
- Fig. 1 illustrates schemati ⁇ cally and partially in section a first embodiment of an inventive electrostatic gas purifier
- Fig. 2 illustrates schematically and partially in section a second embodiment of an inventive elec- trostatic gas purifier.
- a device 1 which includes an electrostatic fil ⁇ ter to which the dust-laden gas to be cleansed is passed through a delivery conduit 2, said gas passing up through the electrostatic filter device 1 and exiting through an outlet conduit 3 in which a transport fan 4 is mounted, as illustrated schematically in said Figure.
- the filter device 1 includes a rod-like emission electrode 5 which is mounted centrally in the flow of hot gas and to which a d.c. voltage of, e.g., 30-70 kV is applied from a voltage source 6.
- the emission electrode 5 is conveniently provided with pointed protru- sions or like means for promoting the generation of corona dis ⁇ charges.
- the filter device 1 also includes a collector electrode 7, which in the case of the illustrated embodiment has an annular configuration and surrounds the emission electrode 5.
- the configuration of the collector electrode arrangement 7 can be likened to a wandering curtain of gravel-like material or some other granular material. Movement of the gravel or granules 8 through the filter device is steered by annular lamellae 9 which are obliquely positioned in the fashion of jalousie slats, such as to define gaps 10 between the various lamellae 9.
- the lamellae 9 are inclined so that the gravel ⁇ like material can run externally therealong without said material 8 running through the aforesaid gaps 10 and entering the gas through- flow duct 11 of said filter device.
- the angle of inclination of the lamellae 9 is shown in Fig. 1.
- a circular outer casing 12 is pro ⁇ vided outside the lamellae 9, wherein the gravel-like material 8 runs between the lamellae 9 and the outer casing 12 under the force of gravity.
- the gravel-like material 8 is delivered to the filter device in Fig. 1 through a delivery conduit 13 and exits through an outlet conduit 14.
- the gravel-like material or granular material can be handled with the aid of a pneumatic conveyor or a hot goods elevator, for instance.
- the lamellae 9 and the outer casing 12 are electrically conductive and electrically earthed, and may be comprised of steel, for in ⁇ stance.
- the gravel-like material or granular material 8 may also be electrically conductive and may consist of iron ore crush or steel balls, although it is also possible to use electrically non- conductive gravel or other granular material.
- the collector electrode 7 of the Fig. 1 embodiment can be said to include the lamellae 9, the outer casing 12 and the granular mate ⁇ rial 8.
- the inventive filter device illustrated in Fig. 1 operates in the following manner. Hot dust-laden gas to be cleansed, or purified, is delivered to the filter device 1 through the delivery conduit 2, whereafter the gas passes through the centre portion 11 of the device, i.e. in the region between the voltage-applied emission electrode 5 and the electrically earthed collector electrode 7.
- the granular material 8 is allowed to run slowly down in the region between the lamellae 9 and the outer casing 12 and the dust present in the gas is transferred therefrom to the collecting electrode 7, i.e. to the granular material 8, the lamellae 9 and the inner sur- face of the outer casing 12, under the effect of the electric field thus generated.
- the downwardly running granular material 8 keeps the metal surfaces free from dust and, at the same time, transports the dust away from the gas flow.
- the granular material 8 departing from the filter device 1 through the outlet conduit 14 is cleansed from dust and thereafter returned to the filter device 1 via the delivery conduit 13. If the dust has a tacky or elastic nature such as to form dust lumps or agglomerates, the dust can be readily removed from the mass of granular material by sieving or screening said material, for instance.
- the cleansed, hot gas leaves the fil- ter device 1 through the outlet conduit 3 for further handling.
- the embodiment illustrated in Fig. 2 differs from the Fig. 1 em ⁇ bodiment by virtue of comprising a plurality of emission electrodes 5' and collector electrodes 7', 20, and by virtue of dividing the gas flow through the filter device I'into a plurality of mutually parallel part-flows.
- the Fig. 2 embodiment also includes a number of internal collector electrodes 20.
- the inner collector electrodes 20 include double, obliquely positioned lamellae 21, 22 which are also electrically earthed, wherewith gaps 23, 24 are provided between the various lamellae 21, 22 and wherein the lamellae are inclined at an angle which enables granular material to run between the vertically disposed lamellae rows in a spill-free fashion.
- the flow of granular material is divided such that granules 8 will run in all collector electrodes 7' and 20.
- the filter device will conveniently include a plurality of granular material 8 inlet and outlet conduits.
- the collector electrodes 7' of the Fig. 2 embodiment can be said to include the lamellae 9', the outer casing 12' and the granular material 8.
- the collector electrodes 20 can be said to include the lamellae 21, 22 and the granular material 8.
- the cross-sectional shape of the filter device may be either circular or rectangular, or some other shape.
- the design of the emission electrode may also vary.
- the design of the collector electrode may also be modified provided that it permits a flow of dust-collecting granular material.
- the direction in which the gas flows through the filter device may also be varied if desired.
- the choice of material from which the emission electrodes, collec ⁇ tor electrodes and the granular material are comprised may also be varied, of course.
- the central feature of the invention is that the inventive collec ⁇ tor electrode is cleansed continuously and that the granular mate ⁇ rial continuously carries away from the filter device dust that precipitates therein during a gas-cleansing or purifying operation.

Abstract
Ce procédé et cet appareil permettent de nettoyer ou purifier des gaz chargés en poussières, et notamment des gaz de traitements à chaud, à l'aide d'un dispositif à filtre électrostatique (1; 1') comprenant au moins une électrode d'émission (5; 5') et une électrode de collecte (7; 7', 20). On utilise un matériau granulaire (8) qui parcourt l'électrode de collecte et on nettoie les surfaces. Simultanément, la poussière collectée sur l'électrode de collecte est évacuée du dispositif à filtre avec ce matériau granulaire. Celui-ci (8) se déplace vers le bas de l'électrode de collecte (7; 7', 20) sous l'influence de la gravité. Le matériau granulaire (8) est nettoyé et recyclé vers le dispositif à filtre (1; 1').
