Description
Patented Aug. 10, 1937 UNITED STATES PROCESS OF .TREATING COAL AND COM- POSITION THEREFOR Lawrence P. Crecelius, Shaker Heights, Ohio No Drawing. Application May 5, 1932, Serial 20 Claims.
This invention relates to a process for the treating of coal and the burning of the same, which coal contains relatively large amounts of iron sulphur compounds, such as iron pyrites, for the purpose of improving the burning of the coal, obviating deleterious flue gas and tube slagging, and to improve the ash characteristics.
The advance in the art of power production in power plants has been signalized by much higher rates of burning of coal in furnaces than heretofore practiced and an accompanying relative diminution of the air supplied for two main purposes. The higher rates of burning of coal was done for the purpose of increasing the capacity of a given plant, and the second purpose of relative diminution of air supplied was effected for the purpose of decreasing stack losses. The effect of this advance or change in practice, has been to bring about much higher furnace temperatures than were usually regarded as good practice in the past. It has also decreased very materially the amount of air available for oxidizing the various elements in the coal used for combustion. Furthermore, it has operated to increase the speed of heat liberation, and, therefore, decrease the time element for combustion.
The whole effect in this change in the art has operated to disqualify and eliminate, to a very large extent, the use of coals high in iron sulphur compounds, such as are mined Pennsylvania, Ohio, Indiana, Illinois and many other states. The reason for the foregoing is the objectionable and disastrous clinkering which is produced by coals high in iron sulphur compounds, which when subjected to the furnace conditions mentioned before, decompose to ferrous sulphide, which melts at approximately 2140 F., running down on to the grate surfaces, obstructing to a large extent the passage of air through the grates, and additionally, fusing to the iron of the grate bars, thereby becoming permanently aflixed thereto. In the second place, due to the high blasting for heavy overloads, particles of coal are driven off from the burning fuel and are blasted against the boiler tube surfaces. Owing to the high temperature of the ,furnaces, in excess of 2140 F., the ferrous sulphide particles which are carried by the coal are more or less plastic and accumulate on such tube surfaces, permanently fastening themselves to such surfaces and giving rise to tube slagging. In the third place these ferrous sulphide particles collect on the economizer and preheater surfaces, where, due to the low temperature, the ferrous sulphide oxidizes to ferric sulphate, which converts sulphur dioxide of the flue gases into sulphuric acid and gives rise to corrosion on-the economizer and the preheater surfaces.
in Western I have discovered that when such coal as has hereinbefore been referred to is burned in the presence of chlorine, the ferrous sulphide becomes decomposed and quickly forms its stable oxides, namely, ferric oxide and sulphur dioxide, the first of which passes to the ash and the second of which passes out 01' the stack, and that consequently the difiiculties in burning coals with high iron sulphur compounds, are obviated. To accomplish the introduction of chlorine during the burning of the coal, two methods may be employed, one of which consists in injecting chlorine gas directly into the burning bed of coal, which may be readily accomplished by passing in the chlorine along with the air supplied for combustion, the chlorine thus finding its way into and through the burning fuel.
Another method, and the one which will be described more at length, contemplates that the necessary chlorine may be introduced into the furnace, by employing suitable chemicals; which are preferably first sprayed upon and distributed through the coal to be burned.
Speaking in general terms, the chemicals used may be said to comprise a suitable deliquescent halogen compound, such for instance, as calcium chloride or magnesium chloride or mixtures of the two, together with suitable catalytic material, such as manganese dioxide, iron oxide, chromium oxide, used two or more of them together, give most satisfactory results.
Preferably the composition which has just been described, may be made up as a liquid and distributed over the coal uniformly by spraying it upon the same, preferably at the mine, so that its quantity and distribution may be properly controlled, and thereafter the coal may be shipped in the usual way to its destination. However, under such circumstances, it is necessary in order to maintain the composition properly distributed and associated with the coal, to provide a fixer, which renders the composition substantially unafiected by exposure, to which the coal may be subjected in transit, thus making certain of the presence of the treating compound in the coal when the coal is burned.
One suitable composition for treating the coal is made up as follows:
- Percent by weight Calcium chloride 92 assium dichromate 3 Manganese dioxide 3 Tannic acid 2 It has been found that a quantity of the above composition equal to approximately 5% of the sulphur content in the coal is suitable for the purpose.
The reactions when coal is burned with a composition of the general character recited above are as follows:
' Calcium chloride (C'aClz) This medium is inherently deliquescent and provides the small amount of water necessary to p Manganese dioxide (Mn02) and chromium oxide are employed for conversion of the hydrochloric acid into chlorine. Although, with respect to the formation of chlorine from hydrochloric acid, manganese dioxide and chromium oxide perform as catalytic agents, it has been as mium oxideare used together the catalytic conversion of hydrochloric acid into chlorine is accelerated by some six or more times the activity of either one used alone. The chromium oxide functions as a promoter catalytic agent. Obviously by the use of the terms manganese dioxide and chromium oxide there will be included as coming within the same scope, chemical substances which when heated decompose to form manganese dioxide and chromium oxide, respectively, where such substances produce the effect of manganese dioxide and chromium oxide in. the conversion of chlorine in the'burning of the coal as previously described. In order to affix the calcium chloride and the manganese dioxide and the potassium dichromate to the coal sufliciently well. to insure its retention against rain and snow, I add as afixative, tannic acid (C14H1o0s). I have found that instead of supplying the chromium oxide directly, that when potassium dichromate is substituted, the fixative step is brought into play; This is due to the fact that the potassium dichromate and tannic acid react upon one another in the presence of moisture and produce an insoluble floc- 50 culent tanninbichromate precipitate which affixes the whole to the coal and secondly, that under heat at the proper temperature, the tanvninbicl' romate is oxidized producing the emomium oxide required as a catalyst, as before 55 described. I
' Without in any way intending to limit myself in any precise way to the description which fol- --lows, the general reactions occurring in the burning fuel bed may be generally stated as follows: 60 Beginning at a temperature of approximately 932 F., and up to a temperature of approximately -1652 F., the deliquescent calcium chloride is decomposed into calcium oxide and hydrochloric acid. The effectiveness of the hydrochloric acid 5 after its liberation in decomposing iron sulphide is not limited to its acidic properties, but is tre- 'mendously'advanced by its catalytic conversion hinto'chlorlne, due to the presence of the man- 'glanese dioxide and chromium oxide. 70 sulphide is attacked by both hydrochloric acid and chlorine, principally the latter, yielding ferrous';chloride and hydrogen sulphide, both of which are volatile and rapidly converted into ferric-oxide and sulphur dioxide together with a Calcium chloride decomposes found that when manganese dioxide and chm-- The iron continued presence of the catalytic agents before mentioned, is converted again and again, with violent rapidity into free chlorine, to repeatedly attack the ferrous sulphide in the manner previously described. The repeated cycles of reactions explains the comparatively small quantities of chemicals employed in treating the coal.
While I have before indicated that there is some latitude in the employment of chemical substances to accomplish the desired result, it should be noted, however, that the chemicals used must be capable of effecting the reactions necessary to the production of chlorine in the burning fuel at a temperature below the fusion temperature of ferrous sulphide, which is approximately 2140 F.
It will be obvious that the chemical materials with which the coal is treated may be suitably prepared in the correct proportions and shipped as an article of commerce to be applied to the coal, either at the coal mine or applied to the coal just previous to its use. It has been found advantageous to apply the mixture of materials to the coal at the mine, and where this is done the coal, with the chemical materials applied thereto, is shipped as an article of commerce to the consumer.
