Description

Technical Field

[0001] The present invention relates to the technical field of desulfurization wastewater treatment, and in particular to a steam wet self-condensing device and method for a desulfurization wastewater zero-discharge system. Background Art

[0002] In the process of flue gas desulfurization in thermal power plants, a limestone-gypsum wet desulfurization system is usually used. In order to maintain the chloride ion balance in the desulfurization system, desulfurization wastewater needs to be discharged from the desulfurization system regularly. Since this part of the wastewater contains a large amount of harmful pollutants such as dissolved salts, multi-effect evaporation technology is currently used to recycle this part of the wastewater to achieve zero discharge of desulfurization wastewater.

[0003] In the process of using multiple-effect flash evaporation technology, the tail negative pressure steam generated in the last flash evaporation process generally needs to be condensed using the existing circulating water in the power plant, so that condensate water can be produced for reuse. However, in most power plants, this part of circulating water cannot be provided due to difficulties in opening the pipeline or insufficient surplus circulating water, making it difficult to implement multiple-effect flash evaporation technology in the zero-discharge transformation project of desulfurization wastewater. Summary of the invention

[0004] According to one aspect of the present invention, a steam wet self-condensing device for a zero-discharge system for desulfurization wastewater is provided, comprising a wet air cooler, a condensate tank, a vacuum pump, a condensate discharge pump and a condensate water point outlet, the wet air cooler comprising a top spray layer, a lower water tank, a circulating pump and a system pump cooling water point, the wet air cooler is arranged upstream of the condensate tank, the wet air cooler is arranged at a position higher than the condensate tank, the condensate tank is arranged upstream of the vacuum pump and the condensate discharge pump, the downstream of the condensate discharge pump is connected to the wet air cooler, the condensate water point outlet is located at the most downstream, the condensate water point outlet is connected to each water point, the circulating pump outlet is connected to the system pump cooling water point and the spray layer, the system pump cooling water point return water is connected to the water tank, the pipe line from the wet air cooler to the condensate tank and the pipe line from the condensate tank to the suction port of the vacuum pump are a closed interconnected system.

[0005] The above-mentioned steam wet self-condensing device for the zero-discharge system of desulfurization wastewater has the beneficial effect that the tail negative pressure steam from the multi-effect flash separation device enters the tube side of the wet air cooler, and the wet air cooler uses self-circulating spray water and condensate discharged by the condensate pump to cool the heat exchange tube, and uses mechanical forced ventilation for heat exchange. After heat exchange, most of the temperature is reduced and refluxed to the water tank at the bottom of the equipment, and a small part is vaporized and volatilized and discharged with the air; the condensate is discharged from the outlet of the wet air cooler. Under the action of gravity and vacuum negative pressure, it flows downward into the condensate tank; and the wet air cooler realizes the self-circulation of water inside the wet air cooler through the circulating pump and the cooling water water points of the machine pump in the system, and uses the self-circulating spray water and the condensate discharged by the condensate pump to cool the heat exchange tube; when the condensate in the condensate tank is collected to a certain level, it can be discharged to the wet air cooler as supplementary water for heat exchange by the condensate discharge pump, or part of it can be discharged to various water points; the vacuum pump Air and water vapor that is not completely condensed are discharged to maintain negative pressure conditions in the condensate tank, thereby also providing negative pressure conditions for the wet air cooler and the multiple-effect flash separation system. Therefore, compared with the tail steam condensing device of the traditional desulfurization wastewater multiple-effect flash treatment system, the present invention does not need to introduce external circulating cooling water, which solves the problem that it is difficult for the power plant to provide this part of circulating water. There is no need for a circulating water interface between the desulfurization wastewater multiple-effect flash treatment system and the main device of the power plant, and there is no need to lay a circulating water pipeline. For the renovation project, the renovation content is small, and there is no impact on the circulating water system of the main device, which is easy to implement. The wet air cooler can be arranged on the roof of the desulfurization wastewater multiple-effect flash treatment system building, and there is no footprint. The water consumed by the wet air cooler is supplemented by the condensate generated in the device, and there is no need to supplement water from the outside. Since the condensate supplemented by the wet air cooler has a low salt content, the equipment is not prone to scaling, which is conducive to long-term stable operation. The wet air cooler has low equipment investment costs, small equipment size, and is easy to install and maintain.

[0006] In some embodiments, the steam wet self-condensing device for the zero-discharge system of desulfurization wastewater is characterized in that it also includes a recycled water discharge pump, which is connected to the bottom water tank of the wet air cooler, and the recycled water discharge pump discharges the condensed water in the steam condensing device to each water point. The beneficial effect is that the recycled water discharge pump can pump the condensed water in the bottom water tank of the wet air cooler to each water point.

[0009] In some embodiments, the condensate discharge pump is connected to each water point and the wet air cooler at the same time. The beneficial effect is that the condensate discharge pump can discharge part of the water in the condensate tank to the wet air cooler and the other part to each water point.

[0010] In some embodiments, the wet air cooler is provided with relatively arranged vents. The beneficial effect is that the vents enable the wet air cooler to adopt mechanical forced ventilation, and can operate stably with low energy consumption under different ambient temperatures; when the wet air cooler is used in areas with lower temperatures in winter, it is not necessary to use spray water.

[0011] In some embodiments, the vacuum pump is connected to the top of the condensate tank. The beneficial effect is that the vacuum pump suction port is connected from the top of the condensate tank, and the air and the water vapor that are not completely condensed in the condensate tank are discharged, so as to maintain the negative pressure condition in the condensate tank, thereby also providing a negative pressure condition for the wet air cooler and the multi-effect flash separation system.

[0012] According to another aspect of the present invention, a steam wet self-condensing method for a zero-discharge system for desulfurized wastewater is provided. The steam wet self-condensing device for a zero-discharge system for desulfurized wastewater is applied. The tail negative pressure steam from the multi-effect flash separation device enters the pipe side of the wet air cooler, exchanges heat with the spray water of the spray layer in the wet air cooler, and is gradually condensed into condensed water. After the spray water in the wet air cooler exchanges heat with the air, most of it is cooled and flows back to the water tank at the bottom of the equipment, and a small part is vaporized and volatilized and discharged with the air. The circulation power of the spray water in the wet air cooler Provided by the circulating water pump in the equipment; the condensed water is discharged from the outlet of the wet air cooler, and flows downward into the condensed water tank under the action of gravity and vacuum negative pressure; when the condensed water in the condensed water tank is collected to a certain liquid level, it is discharged to the wet air cooler by the condensed water discharge pump, and this part of water can be directly discharged into the top spray layer of the wet air cooler, and directly exchange heat with steam as spray water; it can also be discharged into the water tank at the bottom of the wet air cooler; the water discharged by the condensed water discharge pump can be discharged to the wet air cooler in its entirety, or part of it can be discharged to various water use points, and part of it can be discharged to the wet air cooler as supplementary water.
