Abstract:With the implementation of the policies ‘relocation of industrial enterprises in the old city to the suburbs’ and ‘re-planning of residential land for residential use’ in our country, the possible environmental heath problems resulting from the organic pollution sites left during the relocation of high pollution chemical enterprises need to be resolved, it is urgent to carry out the contaminated soil remediation. Ex-situ direct thermal desorption is one of the main techniques for contaminated soil remediation. Based on the principles, application scope, process flow, advantages and disadvantages of the ex-situ direct thermal desorption technology, the input and output energy balance equations were established and the heat transfer balance was calculated. Aiming at the high energy consumption, the energy consumption of each part was analyzed and the energy saving plan was raised. The flue gas reusing device was used to transfer the waste heat energy from the high-temperature flue gas after the second combustion chamber to the soil pre-drying device through the circulating pipeline. The moisture content of the organic polluted soil decreased, and the total energy consumption of the system was significantly reduced. According to the thermodynamic calculation, the more moisture of the soil decreased, the more energy could be saved. Flue gas waste heat was enough to reduce soil moisture by about 17% for soil pre-drying. According to the analysis, due to the limited continuous drying capacity of soil, the reduction of soil moisture from 20% to 15% with the soil pre-drying device could reduce the energy consumption by more than 20% for the direct thermal desorption device. The feasibility, advantages and disadvantages, and application scope of the disc continuous dryer and the rotary kiln dryer as the soil pre-drying device were compared. This study provides the reference for the selection of direct thermal desorption and energy-saving devices. Key words:soil remediation/ thermal desorption technique/ waste heat reuse/ heat balance calculation.
