Problems solved by technology

Due to the complexity of intertwined processes such as turbulent flow, nucleation, and crystal nucleus growth in the reactor, it is very difficult to study the theory of oxidation reactors
At present, the problems existing in the application of titanium dioxide oxidation furnace reactors in our country are mainly as follows: (1) The operating cycle of the oxidation furnace is short, and the longest is less than 17 days (foreign advanced level, such as DuPont in the United States, mostly 30 to 60 days )
[0005] 1. There are unreasonable problems in the structure design of the oxidation furnace
[0006] 2. Scar prevention and scar removal measures are not reasonable enough
[0007] 3. Problems with the material of the oxidation furnace: the material

Embodiment 1

[0027] Example 1: Preventing Scarring

[0028] First, use a special preheater to heat the oxygen to about 1000°C. The design principle of the preheater is to increase the temperature of the oxygen entering the oxidation reactor as much as possible. Then use the combustion of toluene to heat the oxygen to the reaction temperature of about 1800°C; the hot TiCl 4 After the gas comes out of the preheater, it enters the AlCl 3 generator, the AlCl 3 It is the product of the reaction between aluminum powder and chlorine gas entering from the upper part of the generator, and the reaction product AlCl 3 Exothermic, the TiCl 4 and AlCl 3 The mixing temperature rises to 550°C, and the mixed fluid enters the TiCl 4 oxidation reactor.

[0029] Using secondary oxygen in TiCl 4 After the feeding ring, the high-speed tangentially enters the reactor, and the rectified high-speed secondary oxygen forms an air curtain cooling layer on the inner wall of the mixing zone of the reactor and t...

Embodiment 2

[0030] Example 2: Preventing Scarring

[0031] First, preheat the oxygen to 800°C, and then use the combustion of toluene to heat the oxygen to the reaction temperature of 1600°C; heat TiCl 4 After the gas comes out of the preheater, it enters the AlCl 3 Generator, TiCl 4 and AlCl 3 The mixing temperature rises to 500°C, and the mixed fluid enters the TiCl 4 oxidation reactor. Using secondary oxygen in TiCl 4 After the feeding ring, the high-speed tangentially enters the reactor, and the rectified high-speed secondary oxygen forms an air curtain cooling layer on the inner wall of the mixing zone of the reactor and the subsequent reaction zone (cylindrical cooling zone), and there is no sintering scar layer in the reactor .

Embodiment 3

[0032] Embodiment 3: titanium dioxide quality control

[0033] The average particle size of the particles depends on the number of crystal nuclei formed in the reaction. The number of crystal nuclei depends on the activity and quantity of the nucleating species at the reaction temperature. In order to control the number of crystal nuclei, on the one hand, the degree of gas mixing is controlled, and on the other hand, the reaction temperature is controlled. A high reaction temperature will form too many crystal nuclei, resulting in a thinner average particle; a low reaction temperature will form too few crystal nuclei, resulting in a coarser average particle. In this process, the jet feeding of titanium tetrachloride is very critical, because it involves the realization of oxygen and TiCl 4 Quick, even mixing. If the two reactants are not mixed uniformly, the resulting particles may be of different sizes. Even if the average particle size meets the requirements, the particle...

Description

technical field [0001] The invention belongs to the technical field of preparing titanium dioxide by a chlorination method, and in particular provides a method and a device for preparing titanium dioxide in a novel oxidation reactor, which are suitable for industrialized production of titanium dioxide. technical background [0002] Titanium dioxide is an important fine chemical product, widely used in coatings (60%), plastics (16%), papermaking (14%), ink (3%), chemical fiber, rubber, etc. (7%) industrial sectors. People's annual consumption is greater than 1.0kg, the world average is 0.45kg, while our country is only 0.04kg. Titanium dioxide production methods include sulfuric acid method and chlorination method. The sulfuric acid method is currently being gradually reduced and forced to close due to problems such as excessive waste, high energy consumption and low product quality. The general development trend of the world's titanium dioxide industry is to change from the...
