Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] The invention belongs to the technical field of wet phosphoric acid extraction, and relates to a defoaming device and a defoaming method, in particular to a wet phosphoric acid extraction vacuum defoaming device and a defoaming method. Background Art
[0002] At present, the wet phosphoric acid extract used in the wet phosphoric acid extraction process has high viscosity and high temperature, which is very easy to produce a large amount of foam. In addition, existing phosphorus chemical enterprises generally have problems such as complex mineral sources and large differences in mineral content, which leads to large changes in the state of the foam, making it more difficult to select the dosage and model of the defoamer, reducing the effect and adaptability of the defoamer. In addition, the addition of defoamers in the wet phosphoric acid extraction process not only reduces the purity of the phosphoric acid extraction and the quality of the product, but also affects the continuity of the entire production process. A large amount of harmful gases containing fluorosilicic acid will be generated during the wet phosphoric acid extraction process, and the addition of defoamers will accelerate the release of harmful gases. In addition, defoamers are consumable products that need to be purchased repeatedly, increasing production and operation costs. If the defoaming is not timely and ideal, it will cause the weather tank of the device to be blocked, overflowing the tank and other phenomena, which will bring huge hidden dangers to production safety. Summary of the invention
[0003] The purpose of the present invention is to provide a vacuum defoaming device and a defoaming method for wet phosphoric acid extraction, which can eliminate bubbles without adding a defoaming agent, thereby improving the safety of the phosphoric acid extraction process and the purity of the phosphoric acid extraction.

[0006] As a limitation: a suction pipe is provided at the feed inlet of the defoaming barrel, and the suction pipe forms a 10° angle downward with the inner wall of the defoaming barrel.
[0007] As a further limitation: the lower part of the defoaming barrel is a conical structure, and the bottom of the conical structure is a discharge port; the lower part of the interior of the defoaming barrel is provided with a conical downflow port.

[0009] The present invention also provides a defoaming method for the above-mentioned wet phosphoric acid extraction vacuum defoaming device, which comprises: turning on the switch of the high-pressure fan, the air intake port of the high-pressure fan is connected with the air exhaust port of the defoaming barrel, a negative pressure is generated inside the defoaming barrel, and the feed port of the defoaming barrel sucks the foam and gas on the surface of the slurry in the extraction tank into the defoaming barrel through the adjustable porous bubble suction head assembly, and the foam generates a downward rotating force with the help of the negative pressure to hit the resistance shear plate and the anti-corrosion wire mesh grid in the defoaming barrel, thereby forming a mechanical shear force, destroying the foam structure, releasing the gas in the foam, and reducing the foam to slurry. The gas enters the phosphoric acid extraction device through the suction port, the high-pressure fan air inlet, and the high-pressure fan outlet in turn, and the slurry flows into the bottom of the defoaming barrel. When the slurry level rises to the rising height preset by the automatic control unit, the automatic control unit controls the solenoid valve at the discharge port to open, and at the same time, controls the high-pressure fan to close, and the slurry is discharged back to the extraction tank through the discharge port.
