Hot oxygen nozzle and uses thereof in gasifiers

摘要

A hot oxygen nozzle and uses thereof in a gasifier, the hot oxygen nozzle comprising an outer-ring spout, a middle-ring spout, an inner-ring spout, and a central spout all sequentially and coaxially disposed, and a cooling system; the gasifier is an entrained-flow gasifier provided with one or more nozzles on a certain plane or a plurality of planes at the top or on the periphery of the gasifier body. The nozzle has a simple structure and is easy to make and maintain. A fuel gas passage is disposed inside the nozzle. Oxygen can be heated by a combustion of fuel gas; and high-temperature and high-speed oxygen can directly ignite carbonaceous materials such as coal-water slurry and coke-oven gas. The present invention can be applied in a gasifier and then in the final process of synthesis gas preparation.

1. A hot oxygen nozzle, comprising an outer-ring spout, a middle-ring spout, an inner-ring spout, and a central spout all sequentially and coaxially disposed, and a cooling system,
wherein the outer-ring spout has an end and comprises an outer-ring duct and an outer-ring nozzle head which has a larger end; wherein the larger end of the outer-ring nozzle head is connected to the outer-ring duct; wherein the central spout has an end and comprises a central duct and a central nozzle head which has a larger end; wherein the larger end of the central nozzle head is connected to the central duct; wherein the middle-ring spout comprises a middle-ring duct; wherein the inner-ring spout comprises an inner-ring duct; wherein the outer-ring spout, middle-ring spout, inner-ring spout, and central spout are connected by a first flange; wherein the end of the outer-ring spout is level with that of the central spout; wherein the cooling system comprises coils and a cooling chamber; wherein the cooling chamber is coaxially situated outside of the outer-ring nozzle head; wherein the coils are situated outside of the outer-ring duct close to the outer-ring nozzle head; wherein the cooling chamber is connected with the coils; wherein liquid coolants can flow into the cooling chamber and then can flow out through the coils; wherein an outer-ring passage is formed between the outer-ring spout and the middle-ring spout; wherein an inner-ring passage is formed between the inner-ring spout and the central spout; wherein a passage is formed between the middle-ring spout and the inner-ring spout; and wherein a passage is formed within the central spout; wherein the middle-ring spout and the inner-ring spout subside inward along the axis; wherein the end of the middle-ring spout is level with that of the inner-ring spout; wherein a chamber in which hot oxygen can be created by combustion is formed by the cross-section of the outlet of the passage that is between the middle-ring spout and the inner-ring spout, the inner wall of the straight duct of the outer-ring spout, and the outer wall of the straight duct of the central spout; wherein the length of said chamber, t, as measured from the outlet of the passage that is between the middle-ring spout and the inner-ring spout to an interface between the outer-ring duct and the outer-ring nozzle head is 2-5 times the equivalent diameter of the passage that is between the middle-ring spout and the inner-ring spout; and wherein the outer-ring passage, the inner-ring passage, and the passage that is between the middle-ring spout and the inner-ring spout, all open into said chamber.
