Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of industrial waste gas treatment technology, and in particular to a self-filtering spray tower circulating water waste gas treatment system. Background Technology

[0002] The spray tower circulating water system is a crucial component in industrial waste gas treatment, and its structural design and technological maturity directly impact treatment efficiency and operational economy. Currently, this system typically consists of a waste gas inlet, packing layer, circulating water tank, water pumps and pipelines, spraying devices, and filters (such as high-efficiency filters, reverse osmosis membranes, or activated carbon filter units). Wastewater generated during the spraying process is initially filtered by the filters in the circulating water tank, then collected through guide plates and a recovery tank, and finally pumped back to the spray tower for reuse.

[0003] However, existing technologies require periodic shutdowns and water changes to maintain water quality, typically 2-3 times per month, increasing the operational and maintenance burden. Furthermore, the system generates considerable wastewater treatment costs and production downtime losses, driving up overall operating costs. In addition, pollutants transferred from the circulating water to the aqueous phase may cause secondary pollution, requiring further treatment. These problems severely restrict the widespread application and effectiveness of spray towers in waste gas treatment. Utility Model Content

[0026] Reference Figure 1 The present invention provides an embodiment of a self-filtering spray tower circulating water and waste gas treatment system:

[0027] A self-filtering circulating exhaust gas spray tower system is characterized by integrating a microbubble flotation unit with a circulating water tank 130 at the bottom of the spray tower, enabling internal self-purification and recycling of water. Daily operation requires no manual water replacement. Suspended solids and sediments separated by the air flotation system can be separated into mud and water by the deer press built into the microbubble flotation system, thus solving the problem of pollutant transfer in traditional spray tower systems.

[0028] The main body of the system is a vertical spray tower. The tower body 100 has an exhaust gas inlet at the bottom and an exhaust gas outlet 120 at the top. The tower body 100 has multiple detection ports 140, which are vertically spaced for observation and monitoring of the conditions inside the tower. Two layers of packing material 200 are arranged inside the tower from top to bottom. A spray structure is arranged above the packing layer 200, comprising multiple nozzles evenly distributed above the packing layer 200. The packing layer 200 uses large-diameter nozzles to prevent clogging, and the channel diameter of the spray heads 300 is no less than 15 mm to further prevent clogging; traditionally, the channel diameter is 8-10 mm. The bottom of the tower body 100 integrates a circulating water tank 130 that combines collection and treatment functions.

[0029] The circulating water tank 130 contains a microbubble flotation unit. The inlet pipe of a dissolved air pump 520 is connected to the purified water area in the lower part of the circulating water tank 130, and its outlet is connected to a microbubble releaser 510 located at the bottom of the tank. This releaser generates a large number of uniform micron-sized bubbles. The microbubble releaser 510 generates 20-50µm microbubbles under reduced pressure, carrying suspended solids to the surface. The purified water has a suspended solids concentration ≤30mg / L and a turbidity ≤15NTU. A surface scraper 600 is installed across the surface of the tank, smoothly scraping scum into a scum collection tank located at one end. The scum collection tank is connected to an automatic scum press, and the filtrate produced by the scum press is returned to the circulating water tank 130 through a pipe.

[0030] The system's workflow is as follows: Industrial waste gas enters from the bottom of the tower, and during its upward movement, it comes into countercurrent contact with the spray liquid. Pollutants are washed, absorbed, and transferred to the liquid phase, while the purified gas is discharged from the top of the tower. The wastewater, having absorbed pollutants, naturally flows back to the bottom circulating water tank 130 under gravity. The dissolved air pump 520 pressurizes the water in the tank, dissolves it in gas, and then delivers it to the microbubble releaser 510. The fine bubbles released under reduced pressure combine with suspended pollutants in the tank and carry them to the surface to form a scum layer. The scum scraper 600 works continuously to remove the scum and sends it to the scum press for dewatering, forming dry scum that is transported off-site, while the filtrate is returned to the system. The purified water, after flotation, remains in the lower part of the tank and is drawn by the circulating pump and transported to the top spray layer of the tower, completing the entire self-filtration cycle.

[0031] This system continuously purifies the circulating liquid through its built-in flotation unit, effectively solving the technical problems of traditional spray towers being prone to clogging and requiring frequent water changes, and achieving long-term, stable, and near-zero water consumption operation of the system.

[0032] The two packing layers 200 within the system employ a differentiated design. The upper packing layer 200 uses multi-faceted hollow spherical packing, which has a large porosity and is mainly used for the initial removal of larger particles in the exhaust gas and for uniform airflow distribution, effectively preventing clogging. The lower packing layer 200 uses structured honeycomb packing, which has a large specific surface area, designed to provide sufficient contact area for the gas and liquid phases, achieving efficient and deep absorption of pollutants such as acid mist and VOCs. This staged packing arrangement significantly improves the overall treatment efficiency and anti-clogging capability of the tower 100. Specifically, the packing layer 200 can be filled with quartz sand particles.

[0033] The slag scraper 600 is a chain-plate type. Its scraper is made of wear-resistant rubber, and the shape of its bottom edge perfectly matches the rectangular cross-section of the circulating water tank 130, ensuring that there are no dead angles in the slag scraping process. The operating speed of the slag scraper 600 can be frequency-controlled according to the amount of scum generated on the liquid surface, thus optimizing operating energy consumption while ensuring that the scum is removed in a timely manner.

[0034] The core of the automatic slag discharge device 700 is a disc filter press. The slag scraped into the collection trough by the slag scraper 600 is automatically fed into the feed inlet of the filter press via a screw conveyor. The filter press operates automatically under program control, using high-pressure extrusion to fully separate the water from the slag, ultimately producing a blocky filter cake with low moisture content. The filter cake falls into a storage bag below through the slag outlet for easy sealing and periodic removal. The filtrate produced by extrusion flows back to the circulating water tank 130 via pipeline, achieving fully closed-loop treatment and recycling of the material.

[0035] The inlet of the dissolved air pump 520 is directly connected to the purified water intake at the lower side wall of the circulating water tank 130 via a dedicated pipeline, thereby consistently drawing the cleanest water from the circulating water tank 130 to prepare dissolved air water. This ensures the high quality of the dissolved air water, avoids the potential wear and blockage risk to the microbubble generator 510 caused by residual microparticles in the water, and ensures the long-term stable operation of the microbubble generation system.

[0036] To further optimize the system's ability to treat acidic or alkaline waste gases and achieve refined control, a pH sensor is also installed in the circulating water tank 130.

[0037] The pH sensor uses corrosion-resistant electrodes, and its probe is directly immersed in the purified water layer in the lower part of the circulating water tank 130 to monitor the pH value of the circulating spray liquid in real time. The sensor's signal output is connected to the system's central control unit.

[0038] Based on real-time data from the pH sensor, the system achieves intelligent dosing control. When the pH value of the circulating liquid deviates from the preset optimal reaction range (for example, when the pH value rises during the treatment of acid mist exhaust gas), the control unit automatically starts the dosing pump to add a quantitative amount of acid or alkali solution to the circulating water tank, thereby automatically stabilizing the pH value of the circulating liquid within the required range.

[0039] This closed-loop control ensures that the spray liquid maintains a consistently high level of chemical absorption, which is particularly crucial for neutralizing acid or alkaline mist exhaust gases. It not only significantly improves pollutant removal efficiency but also effectively prevents equipment corrosion or packing scaling problems that may result from uncontrolled pH levels, further enhancing the automation level and operational reliability of the entire system.

[0040] The preferred embodiments of the present invention have been described in detail above. However, the present invention is not limited to the embodiments. Those skilled in the art can make various equivalent modifications or substitutions without departing from the spirit of the present invention. All such equivalent modifications or substitutions are included within the scope defined by the claims of this application.
