Claims
- 1. Incinerator fumes processing plant comprising:
- a first reactor through which the fumes flow longitudinally, provided with an inlet and an outlet;
- absorbent injection means for injecting an absorbent into the first reactor;
- a second reactor having an inlet connected to the outlet of the first reactor,
- wherein the fumes are driven with a rotating motion so as to separate, by centrifugal effect, solid particles from gases circulating in the second reactor;
- means for recirculation, in the plant, of at least part of the solid particles separated in the second reactor;
- means for discharge of the fumes which have been dedusted of the solid particles;
- wherein the second reactor is mainly cylindrical and comprises three zones physically separated from one another along at least a portion of each of the three zones:
- a peripheral zone to gather and/or to recycle fumes charged with absorbent particles,
- an intermediate zone where a rotating motion is imparted to the flow, and
- a central zone for discharge of the scrubbed fumes;
- wherein the three zones of the second reactor are coaxial and substantially perpendicular to the longitudinal axis of the first reactor, and wherein the first reactor and the second reactor are so laid out in relation to each other that the fumes enter the intermediate zone of the second reactor tangentially.
- 2. Plant as claimed in claim 1, further comprising a venturi placed in the first reactor downstream from absorbent injection means in order to improve mixing of the absorbent with the fumes to be processed.
- 3. Plant as claimed in claim 1, wherein the first reactor has a cross-section that decreases at the approach of its connection with the second reactor.
- 4. Plant as claimed in claim 1, further comprising under pressure means to create an underpressure in peripheral zone.
- 5. Plant as claimed in claim 4, wherein said underpressure means include an array of injectors intended to homogeneously distribute a gas allowing the gases present in peripheral zone to be sucked out.
- 6. Incinerator fumes processing plant comprising:
- a first reactor through which the fumes flow longitudinally, provided with an inlet and an outlet;
- absorbent injection means for injecting an absorbent into the first reactor;
- a second reactor having an inlet connected to the outlet of the first reactor wherein the fumes are driven with a rotating motion so as to separate, by centrifugal effect, solid particles from gases circulating in the second reactor;
- means for recirculation, in the plant, of at least part of the solid particles separated in the second reactor;
- means for discharge of the fumes which have been dedusted of the solid particles;
- wherein the second reactor is mainly cylindrical and comprises three zones physically separated from one another along at least a portion of each of the three zones:
- a peripheral zone to gather and/or to recycle fumes charged with absorbent particles,
- an intermediate zone where a rotating motion is imparted to the flow, and
- a central zone for discharge of the scrubbed fumes;
- wherein the three zones of the second reactor are coaxial and substantially perpendicular to the longitudinal axis of the first reactor, and wherein the first reactor and the second reactor are so laid out in relation to each other that the fumes enter the intermediate zone of the second reactor tangentially, and further comprising grids placed at the inlet of the peripheral zone of said second reactor to change the nature of the flow between the intermediate zone and the peripheral zone.
- 7. Plant as claimed in claim 1, wherein the principal axis of the second reactor is substantially vertical.
- 8. Incinerator fumes processing plant comprising:
- a first reactor through which the fumes flow longitudinally, provided with an inlet and an outlet;
- absorbent injection means for injecting an absorbent into the first reactor;
- a second reactor having an inlet connected to the outlet of the first reactor,
- wherein the fumes are driven with a rotating motion so as to separate, by centrifugal effect, solid particles from gases circulating in the second reactor;
- means for recirculation, in the plant, of at least part of the solid particles separated in the second reactor;
- means for discharge of the fumes which have been dedusted of the solid particles;
- wherein the second reactor is mainly cylindrical and comprises three zones physically separated from one another along at least a portion of each of the three zones:
- a peripheral zone to gather and/or to recycle fumes charged with absorbent particles,
- an intermediate zone where a rotating motion is imparted to the flow, and
- a central zone for discharge of the scrubbed fumes;
- wherein the three zones of the second reactor are coaxial and substantially perpendicular to the longitudinal axis of the first reactor, and wherein the first reactor and the second reactor are so laid out in relation to each other that the fumes enter the intermediate zone of the second reactor tangentially, and further comprising an element placed between the intermediate zone and the peripheral zone of the second reactor to separate the flow leaving the intermediate zone.
- 9. Plant as claimed in claim 1, wherein the principal axis of the second reactor is substantially horizontal.
- 10. Plant as claimed in claim 1, further comprising a connecting element between the second reactor and the first reactor to drive the fumes charged with particles towards the first reactor.
- 11. Incinerator fumes processing plant comprising:
- a first reactor through which the fumes flow longitudinally, provided with an inlet and an outlet;
- absorbent injection means for injecting an absorbent into the first reactor,
- a second reactor having an inlet connected to the outlet of the first reactor,
- wherein the fumes are driven with a rotating motion so as to separate, by centrifugal effect, solid particles from gases circulating in the second reactor;
- means for recirculation, in the plant, of at least part of the solid particles separated in the second reactor;
- means for discharge of the fumes which have been dedusted of the solid particles;
- wherein the second reactor is mainly cylindrical and comprises three zones physically separated from one another along at least a portion of each of the three zones:
- a peripheral zone to gather and/or to recycle fumes charged with absorbent particles,
- an intermediate zone where a rotating motion is imparted to the flow, and
- a central zone for discharge of the scrubbed fumes;
- wherein the three zones of the second reactor are coaxial and substantially perpendicular to the longitudinal axis of the first reactor, and wherein the first reactor and the second reactor are so laid out in relation to each other that the fumes enter the intermediate zone of the second reactor tangentially, wherein an internal wall separates at least a portion of the intermediate zone from at least a portion of the peripheral zone.
- 12. Plant as claimed in claim 11, wherein the central zone is defined by a tubular element separating the central zone from the intermediate zone.
- 13. Plant as claimed in claim 11, wherein the three zones of the second reactor are coaxial and substantially perpendicular to the longitudinal axis of the first reactor.
