Abstract

See full text

A fluidized bed combustion system in which a separator receives a mixture of flue gases and entrained particulate separated material from a fluidized bed in a furnace. A pressure seal valve connects an outlet of the separator to the furnace or a fluidized bed heat exchanger disposed adjacent the furnace for recycling the separated particulate separated material back to the furnace. The pressure seal valve includes a downflow leg, and upflow leg and a horizontal leg connecting the downflow leg to the upflow leg. A horizontal overflow leg is connected to the upflow leg and at least two return legs connect the overflow leg to the furnace. The separated material from the separator passes through the legs of the pressure seal valve and sometimes through a heat exchanger (if included) before reentering the furnace.
