Background Art
[0002] Potassium chloride is an important industrial raw material, which can be used to make potassium carbonate, potassium hydroxide, potassium sulfate, potassium chlorate, etc. Potassium chloride itself can be used as a flame extinguisher to extinguish the flames of gun muzzles and cannons at night. When electrolyzing magnesium chloride to make metallic magnesium, potassium chloride is often used as one of the components of the electrolyte. It is used as a diuretic and potassium deficiency agent in medicine.

The two-stage evaporation tank, the two-stage heating chamber and the two-stage circulation pump are connected through a two-stage circulation pipeline to form a circulation loop. The two-stage condensed water tank is connected to the two-stage heating chamber.
[0007] In the above technical solution, the outlet of the first stage evaporation tank is connected to the first stage salt discharge tank, and the outlet of the second stage evaporation tank is connected to the heat preservation settler.
[0008] In the above technical solution, the first-stage evaporation device and the second-stage evaporation device share a scrubbing tower, and the first-stage evaporation device and the second-stage evaporation device each correspond to an evaporation compressor, namely a first-stage evaporation compressor and a second-stage evaporation compressor, wherein: The input end of the scrubbing tower is connected to the secondary steam outlets of the first-stage evaporation tank and the second-stage evaporation tank, the output section is connected to the first-stage evaporation compressor and the second-stage evaporation compressor, the output end of the first-stage evaporation compressor is connected to the steam inlet of the first-stage heating chamber, and the output end of the second-stage evaporation compressor is connected to the steam inlet of the second-stage heating chamber.

[0012] The second invention object of the present invention is to provide a process for producing potassium chloride by two-stage negative pressure evaporation using MVR technology, which is completed by continuous production through the following steps, including: 1) Raw material brine mixing process The concentrated brine is preheated to 60-90℃ according to a certain proportion of the bittern feed amount and then enters the first evaporation tank. The byproduct brine is mixed and preheated to 60-90℃ and then enters the first evaporation tank evenly and stably. 2) One-stage evaporation and two-stage evaporation process The bittern is preheated to 60-90℃ and enters the first stage evaporator for evaporation.

The evaporated liquid undergoes heat preservation sedimentation, cooling crystallization and decomposition washing in the traditional potassium chloride production process to prepare potassium chloride.

[0015] Combining all the above technical solutions, the advantages and positive effects of the present invention are as follows: 1. The present invention utilizes heat pump technology to optimize and upgrade the existing bittern-based potassium chloride production process, and replaces steam with electricity, which can reduce production costs and achieve loss reduction or even loss-making in the bittern-based potassium chloride production process.
[0016] 2. Compared with the traditional potassium chloride multi-effect evaporation, the present invention can flexibly adjust the amount of evaporated water between the first and second stages according to the quality change of the raw bittern, control the amount of salt discharged in the first stage, and improve the evaporation efficiency.
[0017] 3. The two stages of the present invention both adopt negative pressure evaporation, which reduces the temperature of the boiling point of the material and slows down the scaling of the heating chamber, thereby extending the tank cleaning cycle and improving production efficiency.

[0031] A process for preparing potassium chloride using the device described in Example 1, comprising: 1) Adding brine to raw materials The concentrated brine is preheated to 60-90℃ according to a certain proportion of the bitter brine feed and then enters the first evaporation tank. The by-product brine is mixed and preheated to 60-90℃ and then enters the first evaporation tank evenly and stably.
[0032] 2) One-stage evaporation and two-stage evaporation The bittern is preheated to 60-90℃ and enters the first evaporator for evaporation. The boiling point temperature of the first evaporation is controlled at 101-106℃. The mother liquor of the first evaporation is transferred to the second evaporator through a transfer pump for further evaporation and concentration. The boiling point temperature of the second evaporation is controlled at 108-113℃. The evaporated liquid is subjected to the traditional potassium chloride production process of heat preservation sedimentation, cooling crystallization and decomposition washing to prepare potassium chloride.
[0033] 3) Compressor temperature rise The secondary steam evaporated from the first and second stages is collected together, containing a small amount of hydrochloric acid gas and foam. After being neutralized and washed with alkali solution in the steam washing tower, it enters the first and second stage steam compressors. The clean secondary steam enters the compressor for compression and pressure increase, and after the temperature is increased, it passes through the steam superheat elimination device on the steam pipeline to make the secondary steam saturated steam and then enters the first and second stage heating chambers respectively. The saturated temperature rise of the first stage compressor is 28-30℃, and the saturated temperature rise of the second stage compressor is 35-37℃.
[0034] 4) Negative pressure process At the beginning of production, the non-condensable gas in the evaporation system is pumped out by the water ring vacuum pump to form a vacuum, so that the absolute pressure in the first and second evaporation tanks is controlled at 47-58kPa. During normal production, the vacuum in the first and second evaporation tanks is maintained by the negative pressure of the suction port of the first and second evaporation compressors.

After the liquid water is separated by the vacuum buffer tank, it is pumped out by the water ring vacuum pump.
[0035] 5) Gas replenishment process Because the calorific value required for material evaporation is greater than the calorific value released by the secondary steam generated by evaporation and condensed into water in the heating chamber after recompression, raw steam needs to be supplemented to maintain the thermal balance of the production system.
