Claims
- 1. A method for incinerating material in a vertical fluidized bed type reactor a horizontal cross section of which is generally rectangular, said reactor being provided with opposing side walls, a bottom diffusion means and a fluidizing medium charged on said diffusion means;
- supplying fluidizing gas upwardly at the center part of said diffusion means to form a center fluidized bed;
- supplying fluidizing gas upwardly at the opposite sides of said center portion of said diffusion means and adjacent said side walls, respectively to form side fluidized beds directly adjacent said center fluidized bed free of any obstructions therebetween;
- deflecting upper parts of the side fluidized beds generally laterally towards the upper part of the center fluidized bed with regulating the gas supply so that the gas is supplied at each of the side fluidized beds in a greater mass than that supplied at the center fluidized bed whereby the center fluidized bed tends to move downwardly relative to the side fluidized beds and all of the fluidized beds exhibit generally whirling and circulating mode as a whole from the lower part of the center fluidized bed to the lower parts of the side fluidized beds, the upper parts of the side fluidized beds and thence to the upper part of the center fluidized bed;
- charging material to be incinerated to the upper part of the center fluidized bed and letting it move along with the movement of said fluidizing medium in said center and side fluidized beds; and
- discharging incombustible residue of said material at the portions adjacent the opposite sides of said diffusion means while the operations above are continued.
- 2. A method as claimed in claim 1 wherein fluidization of the center and side fluidized beds is arranged so as to permit lateral diffusion between the beds while the whirling and circulation of the fluidizing medium within the reactor are continued.
- 3. A method as claimed in claim 1 wherein material is charged into the reactor at substantially a constant rate.
- 4. A method as claimed in claim 1 wherein the residue is discharged at a proper interval during the other operations are continued.
- 5. A method as claimed in claim 1 wherein said material is charged into the reactor without being shredded or crushed.
- 6. A method as claimed in claim 2 wherein material is charged into the reactor at substantially a constant rate.
- 7. A method as claimed in claim 2 wherein the residue is discharged at a proper interval during the other operations are continued.
- 8. A method as claimed in claim 2 wherein said material is charged into the reactor without being shredded or crushed.
