20140197020 | SYSTEM AND PROCESS FOR PREPARING ACTIVE CARBON FROM COAL FLYASH - The present invention provides a system and a process for preparing activated carbon from fly ash. The system of the present invention comprises a flotation system and a carbonization system. The present invention has the following advantages. Firstly, since a fuel gas-flue gas loop structure is arranged, the combustible fuel gas produced in carbonization process enters the combustion means for combustion via this loop structure, and also via this loop structure, the high temperature flue gas generated by the combustion enters the carbonization furnace to heat up and carbonize the charcoal powder raw material within the carbonization furnace. Such a solution not only saves energy, but also prevents a substantial amount of combustible gas from being emitted to the atmosphere, thereby reducing environmental pollution. Secondly, since two cylinders are arranged in the carbonization furnace, the charcoal powder raw material in the inner cylinder enters the outer cylinder and then exits from the outer cylinder. In this way, with the length of the device unchanged, the route of the charcoal powder raw material is lengthened and its heating time is prolonged, so that the raw material is sufficiently heated and carbonized. | 07-17-2014 |
