Abstract

PURPOSE:To avoid an abrupt combustion and to ensure an adequate regenerating efficiency even with a gas permeable heat resistant member having a plenty of fine carbon particles arrested therein, by restricting the flow rate of heated gas for burning fine carbon particles and an oxygen concentration within a preset range. CONSTITUTION:A heated gas for burning a carbon is forcibly and controllably supplied to a gas permeable heat resistant member installed in an exhaust gas passage with fine carbon particles of exhaust gas arrested therein in such a manner that its flow rate and oxygen concentration fall within a zone confined by respective curves y=1.12-0.290logeX and y=0.532-0.229logeX and by respective direct lines y=0.1, X=0.5, X=21 as shown in a diagram wherein a flow rate and an oxygen concentration are respectively indicated along the axis y and x. Then, the internal temperature of gas permeable heat resistant member is held at lower than approximately 950 deg.C even when the fine carbon particles are burnt.

The exhaust gas emitted from internal combustion engines such as diesel engines contains a large amount of carbon particles, so in order to prevent pollution, ceramic porous bodies, ceramic honeycomb filters, ceramic fibers, metal fibers, and foamed materials are used in the exhaust gas passage. A carbon purification device equipped with a breathable heat-resistant member such as a shaped metal body is used, but in this type of carbon purification device, the carbon fine particles collected on the breathable heat-resistant member must be removed and regenerated. When seven rollers regenerate breathable heat-resistant members by forcedly feeding heated gas, even if the concentration of the heated gas is around too'c, which is slightly higher than the carbon ignition concentration, carbon particles will rapidly increase. If the air-permeable heat-resistant member burns to a temperature of 1000°C or higher, and depending on the conditions, the air-permeable heat-resistant member reaches a temperature of 1000°C or higher, it may melt or break. Therefore, the temperature increase of the above-mentioned breathable heat-resistant member is
Attempts have been made to burn and remove the amount of carbon particles deposited on breathable heat-resistant members by focusing on the relationship between combustion and carbon particles. In addition to consuming a large amount of energy, frequent repetition of combustion for regeneration will cause problems with the durability of breathable heat-resistant members.Also, since it is not possible to increase the amount of carbon particles deposited, exhaust gas that generates a large amount of carbon particles It has drawbacks such as difficulty in applying it to systems.

The breathable heat-resistant member used in the present invention is a ceramic porous body that is installed in the exhaust gas passage of an internal combustion engine such as a diesel engine of an automobile or a ship to collect carbon particles.
Any filter made of ceramics such as ceramic honeycomb filters or ceramic fibers or heat-resistant metals such as metal fibers may be used, but since this breathable heat-resistant member collects carbon particles in the exhaust gas, the carbon particles may Once a certain amount of carbon particles has been collected, the flow of the exhaust gas in the exhaust gas passage is switched to the branch path side to temporarily cut off the flow to the breathable heat-resistant member where the carbon particles are collected, and the carbon particles are captured in the breathable heat-resistant member. It becomes necessary to remove the collected carbon fine particles within a short time and regenerate the breathable heat-resistant member. However, the removal of these carbon particles is carried out using a heated gas for carbon combustion that is heated to a temperature higher than the ignition temperature of the carbon particles by a heating device installed on the inlet side of the exhaust gas passage and is forcibly fed. When the carbon particles are combusted by supplying the heated gas heated above the ignition temperature of the carbon particles, the temperature of the heated gas is usually set to be much higher than the melting temperature of the breathable heat-resistant member. Even if the carbon particles are left in place, the combustion flame of the carbon particles may cause the air-permeable heat-resistant member to reach an abnormally high temperature, which may reach the failure flow rate or melting temperature of the air-permeable heat-resistant member. Therefore, the present invention focuses on the fact that the temperature rise accompanying the combustion of carbon particles is closely related to the flow rate and oxygen concentration of heated gas, and by controlling the flow rate and oxygen concentration of heated gas, carbon particles are combusted. The maximum temperature within the breathable heat-resistant member is kept below the breakage or melting temperature of the breathable heat-resistant member. rnin ) on the y axis, oxygen concentration (

In the above table of Table 1, if the air-permeable heat-resistant member can be regenerated with a regeneration efficiency of 4'J-% or more in 3 minutes without damage or erosion, the graph is shown in Figure 3. It can be confirmed from this table that if the flow rate and oxygen concentration of the heated gas to be supplied are controlled within the above-mentioned ranges, efficient regeneration can be performed without damage or melting loss of the breathable heat-resistant member. The combustion start temperature of carbon particles varies depending on whether or not a catalyst is used in the breathable heat-resistant member, but if there is no catalyst, it is usually around 70°C, so the heated gas temperature is approximately 5!0°C. It will be C or higher. However, so
If the flow rate and oxygen concentration exceed 'c, the control range for flow rate and oxygen concentration becomes small, which not only makes the control device complicated, but also makes it uneconomical to install such a device in a self-propelled engine. Furthermore, since it is not preferable from the viewpoint of energy consumption to heat the gas above 20°C, the humidity of the heated gas for carbon combustion is between 5!0°C and 20°C.
c is practical.

As is clear from the above description, the present invention is directed to limiting the flow and oxygen concentration of heated gas for carbon particulate combustion to a predetermined range when regenerating the breathable heat-resistant member in the exhaust gas passage where carbon particulates have been collected. Since rapid combustion is suppressed by lc<, sufficient regeneration efficiency can be ensured even with a breathable heat-resistant member that collects a large amount of carbon particles, and the heat-resistant breathable member will not be melted or damaged during regeneration. As a result, the combustion regeneration cycle can be significantly lengthened, which has an extremely large effect on the energy efficiency of combustion regeneration and the durability of breathable heat-resistant materials. This method is extremely useful in contributing to the development of industry as a method for recycling breathable heat-resistant members installed in exhaust gas passages, which has many advantages such as being able to expand its application.
