Method for starting up pressurized fluidized bed incinerator system
Is provided a method for starting up a pressurized fluidized bed incinerator system by which cracking of silica sand as a bed material can be prevented at low costs. By heating the silica sand as the bed material filled up in a bottom portion of a pressurized fluidized bed incinerator, a temperature of a freeboard of the incinerator is heated, and after the temperature of the freeboard is heated to 750 to 900° C., a material to be treated having a water-containing organic substance is fed to the pressurized fluidized bed incinerator.
1. A method for starting up a pressurized fluidized bed incinerator system including a pressurized fluidized bed incinerator for burning a material to be treated having a water-containing organic substance with silica sand as a bed material filled up in a bottom portion of the pressurized fluidized bed incinerator, a turbocharger having a turbine rotated by a flue gas discharged from the pressurized fluidized bed incinerator and a compressor rotated according to the rotation of the turbine to supply a compressed air as a combustion air to the pressurized fluidized bed incinerator, a start-up blower for supplying the combustion air to the pressurized fluidized bed incinerator, and a heating unit for heating inside the pressurized fluidized bed incinerator, the method comprising:
supplying the combustion air to the pressurized fluidized bed incinerator by driving the start-up blower;
increasing a temperature of a freeboard of the pressurized fluidized bed incinerator by heating the silica sand as the bed material using the heating unit;
increasing the amount of the flue gas by feeding the material to be treated to the pressurized fluidized bed incinerator after the temperature of the freeboard is increased to between 750 to 900° C.;
after a temperature of the flue gas at an inlet of the turbine in the turbocharger reaches between 500 to 650° C., driving a dumper in a closing direction, the dumper being arranged in a pipe, which connects the inlet of the turbine in the turbocharger and a downstream side of the turbine, a bypass flow path, which is provided between a first flow path and a second flow path, the first flow path provided between a discharge-side of the start-up blower and a suction-side of the compressor, and the second flow path provided between a discharge-side of the compressor and an intake side of the pressurized fluidized bed incinerator, is blocked so that the combustion air is supplied from the start-up blower via the first flow path to an inlet of the compressor, and supplying the combustion air to the pressurized fluidized bed incinerator by driving the turbocharger with the flue gas and after supplying the combustion air to the pressured fluidized bed incinerator, stopping the operation of the start-up blower.
2. The method for starting up the pressurized fluidized bed incinerator system according to claim 1 , wherein the material to be treated is fed to the pressurized fluidized bed incinerator, while an amount of the material to be treated is increased at a constant rate over time.
3. The method for starting up the pressurized fluidized bed incinerator system according to claim 1 , wherein the material to be treated is fed to the pressurized fluidized bed incinerator, while an amount of the material to be treated is increased step by step over time.
4. The method for starting up the pressurized fluidized bed incinerator system according to claim 1 , wherein the pressurized fluidized bed incinerator comprises a start-up burner and an auxiliary fuel combustion apparatus as the heating unit for heating the silica sand as the bed material filled up in the bottom portion, and
wherein after a temperature of the silica sand as the bed material is heated to between 650 to 700° C. by the start-up burner, the temperature of the silica sand as the bed material is heated to between 750 to 850° C. by the auxiliary fuel combustion apparatus.
