[0001]
BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION
The present invention relates to a novel combustion apparatus capable of burning water and air (ozone) using a microwave and a special metal material.
[0002]
[Prior art and problems to be solved by the invention]
Currently, most of the energy situation in Japan currently depends on nuclear power such as uranium and plutonium, or fossil fuels such as oil, coal and natural gas.
[0003]
However, since nuclear energy generates radioactive substances that are harmful to the human body and the environment, there are drawbacks in that high safety is required and high costs are required for handling. In addition, there are many problems that must be solved politically and technically in order to construct new nuclear facilities such as nuclear power plants, and it will take many years to become the mainstream of energy in Japan.
[0004]
On the other hand, as is well known, fossil fuels such as petroleum, coal and natural gas generate a large amount of air pollutants such as carbon dioxide, dust, nitrogen oxides and sulfur oxides and harmful substances such as dioxins upon combustion. There is a risk of causing global warming and environmental destruction, and a lot of time and cost are spent on countermeasures.
[0005]
Furthermore, Japan is scarce of these energy resources, and all must depend on foreign countries, but there is no guarantee that these resources will be supplied stably in the future.
[0006]
Therefore, the present invention has been devised in order to effectively solve such problems, and its purpose is inexhaustible on the earth in place of nuclear resources and fossil fuels having such various problems. The present invention provides a novel and useful water combustion apparatus that can use water and air (ozone) as fuel.
[0007]
[Means for Solving the Problems]
In order to solve the above-mentioned problems, the first invention is that an inner tube is coaxially installed in a microwave radiation main tube attached so that an end portion thereof faces the combustion furnace, and a steam jet nozzle is provided in the inner tube. A combustion nozzle section, a microwave generation section that feeds microwaves into the combustion nozzle section, an ozone generation section that supplies ozone to the combustion nozzle section, and a water fuel containing water as a main component is supplied to the steam jet nozzle and a fuel supply unit for, and, together with the forms in water pipes and high parametric indium and platinum with the potentials of the nozzle member of the water supply pipe end of the steam nozzle, lower nozzle member tip potentials iron (Fe ).
[0008]
In other words, the present inventors have studied over many years to use infinitely existing water and air as fuels on the earth. As a result, by combining microwaves, ozone and special metal materials, water and air (ozone) are combined. The present inventors have found that it can be used as a fuel and have arrived at the present invention.
[0009]
Although this principle is currently under intensive research, the present inventors speculate that the ozone supplied into the combustion nozzle part is due to the catalytic action and microwave energy of the water vapor jet nozzle made of palladium and platinum. After being destroyed by heating and reduced to active oxygen (singlet oxygen) and ejected into the furnace, this active oxygen is chemically bonded to hydrogen in high-temperature and high-pressure steam that is also ejected from the steam ejection nozzle into the furnace. It is presumed that this is so-called shared reduction wave combustion using the energy generated at the time. Here, the hydrogen in the water vapor is because part of the hydrogen occluded in the noble metal is released into the furnace for the following reason.
[0010]
That is, a high potential such parametric indium and platinum precious metals, by combining a base metal such as iron (Fe), resulting difference in contact potential by contact with the lower base metal having high noble metal and potential of the potential. This is considered to be because hydrogen having a negative potential occluded in the noble metal is extracted to the tip of the nozzle and released into the furnace together with water vapor due to this potential difference.
[0011]
In addition to this shared reduction wave combustion, it is presumed that so-called stimulated emission oher combustion as shown below also occurs.
[0012]
First, the oxygen ratio and energy (koal / mol) required for combustion are ground state oxygen (Sigma 3 ³ Σ _g → 0), singlet oxygen (Delta G ^{one 1} Δ _g → 22.5 → basal oxygen). 22.5 koal / mol higher energy, especially in the hole body, the photochemical reaction is the highest and the lifetime is the longest), singlet oxygen (Sigma _g ^{one 1} Σ _g → 37.5 → this is the delta _g ^one with photochemical reaction There are four types ^: superoxide (O ₂ ⁻ → −9.9).
[0013]
Then, when an electromagnetic wave (microwave) is applied to the air, only oxygen becomes active oxygen, and when the active oxygen is blown into water vapor, the water vapor and the active oxygen chemically react to form a hydroxy radical (OH). This hydroxy. Radicals deprive water vapor of hydrogen (H), and just oher combustion such as HOH → H ₂ O occurs. When this HOH binds to H ₂ O, enormous energy is released. In short, this is stimulated emission ohmic combustion using microwaves of active oxygen.
[0014]
Therefore, since only high-temperature heat, water vapor, and very little carbon dioxide are generated by this combustion, as well as black smoke and soot when burning fossil fuel, nitrogen oxide, sulfur oxide, etc. A clean exhaust gas containing almost no harmful substances is generated.
[0015]
Next, the second invention electrically connects the nozzle member of the steam jet nozzle and the inner tube tip with a contact fitting, and connects the inner tube together with the steam jet nozzle from the tip of the microwave radiation main tube into the furnace. This allows the microwave output to be freely controlled even manually.
[0016]
In other words, this is like a control rod that is a kind of nuclear reactor operation control, and acts as an isolator that absorbs or extinguishes output when the output suddenly exceeds the tuning criticality or some accident occurs during operation. It is to be made. For example, if this is slid in the furnace direction, the output will increase, and if it is pulled in the opposite direction, the output will decrease. In other words, those that form an important role when entering the wavelength level of the microwave emitted from such microwave radiation main into the furnace to the highest tuning the critical speed. The isolator is one type of nonreciprocal transmission circuit element having two openings, and is an element that has a small transmission loss in one direction but a large loss in the reverse direction. And when connecting and using two electric power transmission elements, when the mutual interference by reflection of each element exists, it inserts between both and is used in order to remove interference.
[0017]
According to a third aspect of the present invention, if a photocatalyst layer made of a mixture of alumina, titanium N-type, and strontium oxide is formed on the inner surface of the furnace wall to which the combustion nozzle portion is attached, Waves are decomposed into various wavelength components by the photocatalytic action of the photocatalyst layer, so that ozone, which is required for the present invention, as well as harmful substances such as dioxin in the exhaust gas should be generated by this composite wavelength. After being decomposed into harmless components, it is released into the atmosphere.
[0018]
Such a phenomenon is under intensive research, but when the photocatalyst layer is irradiated with microwaves when the furnace temperature is 400 ° C. or higher, the photocatalytic layer undergoes a photochemical reaction. This generates an electron hole pair, and after the electron moves to the inside of the photocatalyst layer and the hole moves to the surface, this hole photoreacts with fine particles on the surface and a small amount of moisture, and has a strong oxidizing power. Is generated, and it is decomposed into various wavelengths (medium wave, short wave, ultra short wave, ultra high frequency wave, microwave, millimeter wave), and these combined wavelengths generate intense oxidizing power in the furnace, and single ozone It is presumed to decompose oxygen into harmful oxygen and harmful substances.
[0019]
This phenomenon will be described in more detail as follows.
[0020]
When the furnace temperature is set to 400 ° C., the titanium oxide N-type and strontium oxide are heated, and the surface generates the same oxidizing power as when the surface is heated to 70,000 ° C. to 100,000 ° C. . In general, the titanium oxide N type exhibits the same oxidizing power when the surface is heated to 30,000 ° C. or more when ultraviolet rays or heat is applied, and oxidatively decomposes environmental pollutants in water and air. For example, the organic matter is decomposed into CO ₂ and H ₂ O. That is, when titanium oxide is irradiated with light having an energy higher than that of an N-type semiconductor (band gap = anatase 3.2 eV, rutile 3.0 eV) (anatase is 387 nm or less, rutile is 413 nm or less), a photochemical reaction occurs.
[0021]
When microwaves and ozone are injected when various wavelengths fly into the furnace and reach a critical state due to the phenomenon as described above, ozone is singlet due to high temperature and strong oxidizing power in the furnace. Decomposed into oxygen (active oxygen). At this time, if a fossil fuel is added as a catalyst to the water fuel, carbon in the fossil fuel is combined to generate a small amount of carbon dioxide (CO ₂ ). When this is illustrated, a phenomenon of one ratio and two ratios as shown in FIG. 6 occurs.
[0022]
The component of the water fuel used in the present invention is 100% water (H ₂ O) in principle. For example, as shown below, fossil fuel or the like may be appropriately added at a ratio.
[0023]
(1) 5% fossil fuel and 5% saccharol for 90% water
(2) 10% fossil fuel and 10% saccharol for 80% water
(3) 10% alcohol and 10% saccharol for 80% water
(4) 25% mixture of alcohol, acetone and saccharol with 75% water

The main pipe 11 is branched and supplied. The microwave radiation main tube 11 and the inner tube 12 are made of a base metal excellent in corrosion resistance and heat resistance, such as stainless steel.
[0029]
Further, a microwave ozone supply pipe 19 is connected to the inner pipe 12 so that microwaves having a wavelength of 1 m or less generated by the above-described microwave generator 2 are supplied. .
[0030]
Further, the steam jetting nozzle 13 includes a nozzle member 20 facing the furnace interior, is composed of a water pipe 21 for being connected to the nozzle member 2 0, via the water fuel supply line 22 connected to the water supply pipe 21 Thus, the water fuel supplied from the water fuel supply unit 4 is heated and vaporized and is jetted from the steam jet nozzle 13 into the furnace. Further, the water supply pipe 21 constituting the water vapor jet nozzle 13 is formed of palladium (Pd), which is a hydrogen storage metal that stores hydrogen gas of about 900 times its own volume under conditions of 400 to 500 ° C. or higher. The nozzle member 20 is made of platinum (Pt), which is an oxygen storage metal that stores oxygen gas of about 100 times its own volume at about 100 ° C. In addition, this platinum (platinum) has the property to discharge | release this again at 300-400 degreeC, or to absorb hydrogen gas 100 to 200 times with oxygen gas. As shown in FIG. 3, the tip portion 31 of the nozzle member 20 is formed of a base metal such as iron (Fe) and is supported on the shaft core portion of the inner tube 12 by a ring-shaped metal spacer 30. . Further, as shown in FIG. 1, the inner pipe 12 and the water vapor jet nozzle 13 are slidable in the furnace 24 from the end of the microwave radiation main pipe 11 , and the microscopic amount can be adjusted by adjusting the protruding amount. Wave output can be adjusted freely.
[0031]
As shown in FIG. 5, a combustion furnace 24 to which the combustion nozzle portion 1 is attached has alumina (Al ₂ O ₃ ), titanium oxide (Ti ₂ O ₃ ) N on the inner wall of a furnace body 25 made of refractory brick or the like. A photocatalytic layer 26 made of a mixture of strontium oxide (Sr ₂ O ₃ ) is formed, and by this photocatalytic action, the microwave irradiated from the combustion nozzle portion 1 into the furnace 24 is demultiplexed into a plurality of wavelength components. It is supposed to be. In the figure, 27 is an exhaust pipe for exhausting combustion exhaust gas, and 28 is a baffle plate.
[0032]
The embodiment of the combustion method by the apparatus of the present invention will be described above.
[0033]
First, after the interior of the combustion furnace 24 is preheated to 400 ° C. or higher using an electric heater or a preheating burner (not shown), the combustion nozzle portion 1 of the water combustion apparatus is attached to the furnace wall 15 of the combustion furnace 24 as shown in FIG. Immediately after the attachment, water fuel is supplied from the water fuel supply unit 4 to the steam jet nozzle 13 of the combustion nozzle unit 1 at a high pressure (several to several tens of kg / cm ² ), and a high concentration obtained by plasma discharge or the like. Ozone (O ₃ ) is supplied from the ozone supply unit 3 into the inner tube 12 and the microwave radiation main tube 11. Then, the water fuel flowing in the steam jet nozzle 13 is heated by the heat in the furnace 24, and at the same time, a part of the water fuel is decomposed into oxygen and hydrogen by the catalytic action and once absorbed by platinum and palladium. The oxygen gas is drawn to the nozzle tip side, and is released into the furnace 24 together with water vapor in an unstable gas state together with the carbon in the fuel.
[0034]
Next, when such a state is reached, when an ultra-short wave (electromagnetic wave) having a wavelength of 1 m or less is supplied from the microwave generator 2 into the inner tube 12, the microwave is generated as shown in FIGS. Flows to the tip of the microwave radiation main tube 11 while being reflected, and is radiated into the furnace 24. Then , it is decomposed into various wavelengths by the photocatalyst layer 26 to form composite wavelengths. Collides with ozone. As a result, as shown in FIG. 3, FIG. 4 and FIG. 6, after ozone is destroyed to singlet oxygen (active oxygen) by this composite wavelength, it is shared with hydrogen and trace carbon in the steam by the heat in the furnace 24. Reduced wave combustion and stimulated emission oher combustion occur, and it burns with high energy and high heat. Thereafter, the flue gas generated along with this combustion is passed through a heat exchanger or the like, so that the generated high heat can be taken out and used effectively. In addition to adjusting the supply amounts of ozone and water fuel, the combustion amount can be easily adjusted by controlling the protruding amounts of the inner pipe 12 and the water vapor jet nozzle 13 as described above.
[0035]
Since the combustion exhaust gas generated by this combustion is generated using water and air (ozone) as fuel, clean exhaust gas containing almost no nitrogen oxides or sulfur oxides as well as black smoke and dust. Therefore, the surrounding environment is not deteriorated without using a smoke treatment facility.
[0036]
In addition, as shown in FIG. 5, the composite wavelength generated by the photocatalyst layer 26 on the inner wall of the furnace 24 is harmless due to strong oxidizing power even if harmful substances such as dioxin are generated during the combustion, for example, carbonic acid. Since it decomposes into gas, water vapor, etc., it is not released into the atmosphere as it is.
[0037]
【The invention's effect】
In short, according to the present invention, the following excellent effects can be exhibited.
[0038]
(1) Since water and air (ozone) that exist infinitely on the earth can be used as fuel, an epoch-making energy revolution can be caused.
[0039]
(2) Since a fuel mainly composed of water is used, no harmful substances such as black smoke, soot, nitrogen oxides and sulfur oxides, and toxic substances such as dioxins are generated.
[0040]
(3) Since only a small amount of electric power is required to generate microwaves and ozone, the operating cost is greatly reduced.
[0041]
(4) Since the structure is relatively simple, an existing combustion furnace or the like can be installed as it is with a slight improvement.
