Abstract

The present invention pertains to the field of carbon-graphite materials and essentially relates to the production of thermally expanded graphite which is mainly used as a sorbant as well as in the production of graphite foils, heat- and fire-resistant coatings, gaskets, etc. The method for producing thermally expanded graphite involves dosing a powder of oxidised graphite, forming a dual-phase flow of powder particles in a gas, feeding said flow into the thermal-shock area of a tubular heater at a temperature of between 950 and 1400 ° C, removing the expanded graphite from the heater and cooling the same. The tubular heater is arranged vertically, while the dual-phase flow is supplied into said tubular heater from the bottom at a speed at least equal to the airborne speed of the particles of oxidised graphite. The expanded graphite is cooled as it is removed from the heater through an inclined or horizontal tube. The volumetric ratio between the powder and the gas, during the dosage and the formation of the dual-phase flow, ranges preferably from 1: 750 to 1: 1400. The minimal residence time of the particles in the tubular heater varies between 0.1 and 0.4 seconds.

BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION The known methods for the generation of gas are based on the impact of thermal shock

(900 - 1400 ° С) on a freshly oxidized group (ΟГ). One of the possible ways of organizing an enterprise is to dispose of an acidic charge and, in turn, to dispense nitrogen, which results from the use of a two-phase gas. Then, a two-phase flow sends into the zone of the thermal shock generated at the internal wall of the main electric heater (patent δ 1991), 1657473.

However, at the same time, neither the temperature nor the duration of the oxidized load in the zone of thermal shock is not optimized. This does not result in an underestimation of the particles of acidified particles with local or general underheating, or with partial oxidation of the disease. In general, this worsens the performance of the VHF, especially those that are important for its further use in the production of the medium.

Such a ring mode of flow is known for gas-liquid sources in the pipes (Kamaev Β. For mixtures of gases with dry solid materials in pipes, a ring mode of flow may also be organized. It depends on the type of gas and the free-flowing material, gas consumption and the volumetric content of the discrete phase, as well as the internal diameter of the pipe, which is connected to it 2 heating temperatures.

The process can be optimized at the indicated specifications, but most often it regulates only gas waste, because of the pressure

In the two-way flow of the dispersed phase, the independent forces are activated by the speed of the system, which is called the speed system. Well, if the speed of the living stream is sufficiently high, the particles must be kept in balance. The high speed of the flow is called the speed of the particles. With a further increase in the velocity of the gas flow, the particles will move along the pipe wall during the gas movement.

If a pipe is used in a heater from a black glass, it is not possible to observe an inconsequential discharge through the pipe. More accurate data on access to the circuits may be possible with a scan of the device, such as a unit.

25 When moving inside the heater, the main flow of gas (as it is, air) is not affected by the hot walls. Due to its low heat content and significantly higher dispersion phase, it does not accelerate in practice to heat up during the time of heating. Due to this process, the expansion of the oxidized load results in negative energy costs, since it avoids the cost of doing so.

In addition, the proposed method allows you to cool the product with unheated gas (fuel) that is not connected to the heating circuit. For this part of NG, moving at the front of the stream, mix with gas moving in the center of the pipe.

35 This is achieved by changing the direction of the flow from the main to the outside, 4 dormant or descending, due to which the ring structure of the two-way flow and hot particles are discharged, when mixed with more gas
