Abstract

To include a boiler 11 that burns fuel F, an air heater 13 that recovers heat of flue gas 18 from the boiler 11 , a first precipitator 14 that reduces dust in the flue gas 18 after heat recovery, a desulfurizer 15 that reduces sulfur oxides in the flue gas 18 after dust reduction by an absorbent, a dewaterer 32 that reduces gypsum 31 from desulfurization discharged water 30 discharged from the desulfurizer 15 , a spray drying device 34 including an atomizer that atomizes a dewatering filtration fluid 33 discharged from the dewaterer 32 , and a flue-gas introducing line L 11 that introduces a part of the flue gas 18 into the spray drying device 34.

First claim

The invention claimed is:

1. A spray drying method of a dewatering filtration fluid from desulfurization discharged water comprising:
atomizing a dewatering filtration fluid into a spray drying device body with a spray nozzle;
introducing flue gas so as to dry the dewatering filtration fluid;
confirming an atomization state of the spray nozzle and determining whether atomization of the dewatering filtration fluid is appropriate;
cleaning the spray nozzle and removing ash deposit attached around the spray nozzle when the atomization state is inappropriate;
measuring a plurality of temperatures inside the spray drying device body with a plurality of thermometers, the plurality of thermometers being provided in the spray drying device body at predetermined intervals in a direction of a gas flow of the flue gas;
obtaining a temperature distribution of the plurality of temperatures as a function of positions of the plurality of thermometers;
monitoring a dried state of the dewatering filtration fluid with the temperature distribution; and
adjusting supply amounts of the flue gas and of the dewatering filtration fluid, when the temperature distribution has a substantially flat portion and thus drying of the dewatering filtration fluid is not sufficient.

2. The spray drying method according to claim 1 , wherein
said confirming the atomization state of the spray nozzle comprises, with a deposit monitor, irradiating microwaves toward the spray nozzle so as to measure a distance to a position where the ash deposit is generated in a space at a tip section of the spray nozzle.

3. The spray dying method according to claim 1 , wherein
said cleaning the spray nozzle and said removing the ash deposit attached around the spray nozzle are performed by a scraper provided on the spray nozzle.

4. The spray drying method according to claim 1 , further comprising:
supplying a barrier gas from space between the spray nozzle and an outer cylinder provided around the spray nozzle into a spray drying device body.
