Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of energy recovery, specifically to a low-pressure exhaust steam recovery and utilization system and a whitening elimination system. Background Technology

[0002] Because power plant boilers and industrial waste heat boilers generate unnecessary steam due to adjustments in operating parameters, the direct emission of excess steam into the air not only wastes energy but also produces a large amount of "white smoke," which can corrode surrounding equipment and pose certain safety hazards to operators.

[0003] CN222069339U discloses a low-pressure waste steam recovery heat exchange device, including a heat exchange shell connected to a waste steam nozzle and a power nozzle. The power nozzle has a tapered structure, with the tapered end serving as the outlet. The outlet extends into the heat exchange shell and connects to one end of a power chamber, the other end of which is connected to the inlet of a heat exchange chamber. The heat exchange chamber also has a tapered structure, with the inlet at the tapered end. The other end of the heat exchange chamber, away from its inlet, is connected to a buffer oxygen deaerator. Several through holes are provided on the wall of the power chamber, and several through holes are also provided on the wall at the inlet end of the heat exchange chamber. This device can recover waste steam without backflow. However, the structure of this device is relatively complex, and the waste steam recovery efficiency needs improvement. Utility Model Content

The other inlet of the waste steam ejector is connected to the external demineralized water network through a demineralized water inlet pipe.

[0021] The following description, in conjunction with the embodiments shown in the accompanying drawings, provides further details.

[0022] Figure 1 The low-pressure waste steam recovery and whitening system shown includes a condensate tank 1, a water tank 2, a waste steam ejector 4, a waste steam inlet pipe 5, a demineralized water inlet pipe 13, a return pipe 12, and an outlet pipe 14. Specifically: the condensate tank is equipped with an inlet pipe 19, through which condensate containing waste steam from external equipment (such as a boiler condenser) is input into the condensate tank; the condensate tank is also equipped with a waste steam outlet and a return water inlet. The waste steam outlet is connected to the waste steam inlet pipe 5 to discharge steam generated during overpressure operation of the condensate tank; the return water inlet is connected to the return pipe 12. The two inlets of the waste steam ejector are connected to the demineralized water inlet pipe 13 and the waste steam inlet pipe 5, respectively; the outlet of the waste steam ejector is connected to the water tank 2 (preferably a float-type water tank) via the outlet pipe 14, and this outlet is also connected to the condensate tank via the return pipe 12.

[0023] The exhaust steam inlet pipeline includes a bypass pipeline, a shut-off valve 7, and an exhaust steam device 18 that are sequentially connected between the exhaust steam ejector inlet and the condensate tank exhaust steam outlet. The bypass pipeline is formed by the parallel connection of a water-side self-regulating valve and a bypass valve 8.

[0024] The demineralized water inlet pipeline 13 includes a pressure measuring device 15 and a regulating valve 17 connected between another inlet of the exhaust steam ejector and the demineralized water pipeline network 20 via a pipeline.

[0025] The return pipeline 12 includes a steam-side self-regulating valve 9, a throttle valve 10, and a check valve 11, which are connected in sequence between the outlet of the exhaust steam ejector and the exhaust steam return port of the condensate tank.

[0026] The water outlet pipe 14 is connected between the outlet of the exhaust steam ejector and the inlet of the water tank 3.

[0027] Obviously, since the outlet of the exhaust steam ejector is connected to both the return pipe 12 and the outlet water pipe 14, only one T-joint is needed to connect the outlet of the exhaust steam ejector, the return pipe 12 and the outlet water pipe. In addition, a pressure measuring device 15 and a regulating valve temperature measuring device 16 are installed on the pipe between the outlet of the exhaust steam ejector and the T-joint.

[0028] As a preferred option, the exhaust steam ejector should be placed as close as possible to the condensate tank and at the same height as the condensate tank.

[0029] The exhaust steam inlet pipeline is arranged horizontally, with the pipeline length as short as possible, and the valves are centrally located.

[0030] The water tank is preferably a float-type water tank, and the liquid level is controlled by a float level gauge 3.

[0031] The working principle of this invention is as follows: When excessive condensate enters through the inlet pipe, causing overpressure in the condensate tank and generating waste steam, the steam-side self-regulating valve opens, introducing the waste steam into the ejector for secondary recovery and reuse. The waste steam then flows into the float-type water tank. As the waste steam is recovered, the pressure in the condensate tank gradually decreases and stabilizes, and the steam-side self-regulating valve closes. When the float-type water tank is full and cannot absorb the waste steam and ejector outlet water, the steam-side self-regulating valve cannot open due to high back pressure. The pressure before the water-side self-regulating valve gradually increases to the opening pressure, directly drawing demineralized water back to the condensate tank for cooling and pressure stabilization, thereby preventing the generation of waste steam.
