Title: Procedure and device for fast separation of solid particles and gaseous fluids and their use.
Inventor: MAULEON JEAN-LOUIS
IPC: B01J8/26
Filed: 1999-12-22
Abstract: Between the rapid extraction device (11) and the stripper (18) there is an open-topped receiver (14), into which a pipe (13) opens. At the bottom of the receiver is at least one diffuser (15) fed with the fluidizing gas to form the solid particles into a dense fluidized bed (17), with a density between 300 and 800 kg/m<3> before flowing from the diffuser to the stripping zone below it  The device uses a means of rapid extraction to evacuate at least part of the gas and at least one pipe directing the flow enriched in particles from top to bottom to a fluidized bed stripper. The diffuser is fed with a fluidization gas by a line (16) with means of regulating the flow D1 of the gas, so D1 can be adjusted to maintain the superficial speed to the gas to a value of between 0.1 and 40 cm.s<->1, preferably between 0.1 and 20 cm.s<-> 1. The receiver is positioned so the pipe disgorges the particle-rich gas flow at a height H of between 50 cm and 2 m, preferably between 50 cm and 1 m and so the side surface of the outlet is between 0.7 and 1.5 times the section of the pipe. The receiver dimensions are such that the dense fluidized bed it contains is significantly smaller that the stripping bed, with the receiver section being preferably between 1.5 and 6 times that of the pipe which enters it. The diffuser contains means of releasing the fluidization gas in a homogeneous and finely diffused manner, in particular through one or more tubes with regularly spaced vents or orifices. The diffuser comprises an annular tube placed flat in the bottom of the receiver and with vents or orifices in its top half. The diffuser is a chamber occupying the lower half of the receiver, with its upper wall regularly pierced with small orifices through which the fluidization gas is distributed over all the fluidized bed. The means of rapid extraction can eliminate the mixture of gases and solid particles in as short a time as possible, less than 1 second and preferably less than 0.5 seconds or 0.2 seconds. This means of extraction comprises a ballistic separator with a horizontal axis which gives the mixture a rotation of 30 to 190 degrees while extracting at least some of the gases laterally. The receiver has one or more orifices or drains in its base with a total section of between 3 and 20% of the receiver section. The upper part of the side walls of the receiver are cut into sawteeth. The means of extraction divides the mixture of gases and solid particles, and the resulting gas enriched in particles is sent to the bottom via at least two parallel pipes disgorging into a common receiver containing a single dense fluidized bed of particles.
