Discharging method and apparatus for dry coke cooling chambers

摘要

A discharger is disclosed for a dry coke cooling chamber which utilizes a breeches chute having a plurality of outlets. The breeches chute is supplied with coke by a continuously operable conveyor which conveys coke from an outlet of the cooling chamber to an inlet of the breeches chute. A tilting table or other apparatus is provided in the breeches chute to selectively discharge the coke to one of the breeches chute outlets. A lock bin is provided at each of the outlets to receive coke and, at the same time to isolate the cooling chamber in a gastight fashion from the atmosphere.
