Patent number: 5236688Abstract: Disclosed herein are a method for batchwisely calcining and activating infusibilized spherical pitch beads in an upper stage and a lower stage fluidized beds formed on respective perforated plates, by calcining the pitch beads in the upper stage at 600-800.degree. C. with a heated exhaust gas from a space for the lower stage, discharging activated carbon beads of the previous batch from the space for the lower stage, stopping the fluidization of the upper stage by guiding the exhaust gas from the space for the lower stage to the space for the upper stage through a bypass line so that the calcined beads can fall down to the space for the lower stage through the holes of the perforated plate of the upper stage, and activating the falling calcined beads at 800-1200.degree. C. while forming the lower stage fluidized bed with a heated calcining and activating gas, and a furnace used for the above method.Type: GrantFiled: July 19, 1991Date of Patent: August 17, 1993Assignee: Kureha Kagaku Kogyo Kabushiki KaishaInventors: Kunio Watanabe, Takao Ishihara, Yasuo Sakaguchi

Patent number: 4909030Abstract: An improved coal fired gas turbine having an enhanced working efficiency and a relatively low manufacturing cost is disclosed, in which a coal-fired furnace, a mist separator, a gas turbine section and an air compressor are sequentially disposed. The gas turbine section and the air compressor are connected by a common shaft with a partition interposed therebetween so that direct communication of gas and air therebetween is prevented. The coal-fired furnace is constructed as a slagging combustor having a heavy thermal load. A molten slag extraction device is provided at the middle portion of the combustor. Air introducing holes communicate with an outlet of the air compressor for controlling the combustion gas. Furthermore, a mist separator for removing ash mist in the combustion gas is provided on the downstream side of the coal-fired furnace, and a combustion gas introducing section of the gas turbine is provided on the downstream side of the mist separator.Type: GrantFiled: February 24, 1988Date of Patent: March 20, 1990Assignee: Mitsubishi Jukogyo Kabushiki KaishaInventor: Takao Ishihara

Patent number: 4590868Abstract: In a coal-fired combined plant, finely powdered coal is burned at high temperature in a pressurized coal-melting combustion furnace to obtain combustion gas substantially free of dust to drive a gas turbine in order to generate electric power. Waste gas from the gas turbine is used to produce steam which drives a steam turbine for additional electric power generation. Primary dust removal from the combustion gas is carried out by removing most of the resulting coal ash in a molten state. In a secondary dust removal, the dust is removed from the combustion gas by a cyclone disposed in the combustion furnace. In a tertiary dust removal, the dust is removed from the combustion gas which is discharged through an outlet at the combustion furnace by a precision dust-removing device.Type: GrantFiled: February 22, 1985Date of Patent: May 27, 1986Assignee: Mitsubishi Jukogyo Kabushiki KaishaInventor: Takao Ishihara
