Method for reducing organic chlorine compounds in cement production facility, and cement production facility
The method for reducing organic chlorine compounds in the cement production facility of the present invention is a method for reducing organic chlorine compounds in cement production facility by which a quantity of organic chlorine compounds contained in cement raw materials is reduced in the cement production facility, which is provided with an organic matter adsorbing step in which an adsorbing powder is supplied into exhaust gas generated on calcination of cement clinker from the cement raw materials, thereby the organic chlorine compounds are adsorbed on the adsorbing powder and an adsorbing-powder removing step in which the adsorbing powder, which has adsorbed the organic chlorine compounds, is collected, thereby removing the adsorbing powder from the exhaust gas.
1. A method for reducing an amount of an organic chlorine compound emitted from a cement production facility, comprising:
passing an exhaust gas generated from calcination of cement raw materials through an electric dust collector, thereby producing dust-removed gas;
adding to said dust-removed gas an adsorbing powder, wherein said dust-removed gas comprises an organic chlorine compound, such that said organic chlorine compound is adsorbed on the surface of said adsorbing powder;
passing said dust-removed gas at a temperature of from 210° C. to 230° C. through a bag filter comprising a membrane filter having a titanium-vanadium catalyst impregnated therein, said titanium-vanadium catalyst operable for decomposing an organic chlorine compound;
adding said adsorbing powder into a fuel to form a mixture for calcination of cement raw materials; and
heating said mixture at a temperature of 1500° C. or higher during said calcination.
2. A method according to claim 1 , wherein dust removed from said exhaust gas by said electric dust collector has an organic chlorine compound present on a surface thereof.
3. A method according to claim 1 , wherein said adsorbing powder is at least one selected from the group consisting of coal fine powder, activated carbon fine powder and coke fine powder.
4. A method according to claim 3 , wherein said coal fine powder has a grain size of from 20 to 70 μm.
5. A method according to claim 3 , wherein said activated carbon fine powder has a grain size of from 10 to 100 μm.
6. A method according to claim 1 , wherein said organic chlorine compound is polychlorinated biphenyl.
7. A method according to claim 1 , wherein said organic chlorine compound is polychlorinated biphenyl or a dioxin.
8. A method according to claim 1 , wherein said adsorbing powder is porous.
9. A method of making cement, comprising:
calcining a cement raw material in a rotary kiln;
passing an exhaust gas generated from calcination of cement raw materials through an electric dust collector, thereby producing dust-removed gas;
adding to said dust-removed gas an adsorbing powder, wherein said dust-removed gas comprises an organic chlorine compound, such that said organic chlorine compound is adsorbed on the surface of said adsorbing powder;
passing said dust-removed gas at a temperature of 210° C. to 230° C. through a bag filter comprising a membrane filter having a titanium-vanadium catalyst impregnated therein, said titanium-vanadium catalyst operable for decomposing an organic chlorine compound;
adding said adsorbing powder into a fuel to form a mixture for calcination of cement raw materials; and
heating said mixture at a temperature of 1500° C. or higher during said calcination.
10. In a method for making cement, which comprises generating an exhaust gas which comprises an organic chlorine compound, the improvement comprising reducing the amount of said organic chlorine compound by
passing an exhaust gas generated from calcination of cement raw materials through an electric dust collector, thereby producing dust-removed gas;
adding to said dust-removed gas an adsorbing powder, wherein said dust-removed gas comprises an organic chlorine compound, such that said organic chlorine compound is adsorbed on the surface of said adsorbing powder;
passing said dust-removed gas at a temperature of 210° C. to 230° C. through a bag filter comprising a membrane filter having a titanium-vanadium catalyst impregnated therein, said titanium-vanadium catalyst operable for decomposing an organic chlorine compound;
adding said adsorbing powder into a fuel to form a mixture for calcination of cement raw materials; and
heating said mixture at a temperature of 1500° C. or higher during said calcination.
11. A method of reducing the amount of an organic chlorine compound in the exhaust gas of a cement production facility, comprising:
passing an exhaust gas generated from calcination of cement raw materials through an electric dust collector, thereby producing dust-removed gas;
adding to said dust-removed gas an adsorbing powder, wherein said exhaust gas comprises an organic chlorine compound and dust, such that said organic chlorine compound is adsorbed on the surface of said adsorbing powder;
passing said exhaust gas through a bag filter comprising a membrane filter having a titanium-vanadium catalyst impregnated therein, said titanium-vanadium catalyst operable for decomposing an organic chlorine compound;
adding said adsorbing powder into a fuel to form a mixture for calcination of cement raw materials; and
heating said mixture at a temperature of 1500° C. or higher during said calcination.
