DETAILED DESCRIPTION
[0020] like Figure 1-3As shown, the present invention is a desulfurization absorption tower self-oxidation device, comprising a plurality of inclined desulfurizer collecting tanks 1 installed in the absorption tower 1', a circle of desulfurizer overflow tanks 2 installed on the inner wall of the absorption tower 1', a plurality of gas-liquid mixing pipes 3 connected to the bottom of the desulfurizer overflow tank 2 at the upper part, a plurality of air inlet pipes 4 connected to the plurality of gas-liquid mixing pipes 3 through gas-liquid connecting pipes 5, and a plurality of desulfurizer aeration pipes 9. The desulfurizer collecting tank 1 is arranged above the desulfurizer overflow tank 2, and the desulfurizer in the desulfurizer collecting tank 1 is discharged. The desulfurizer can flow into the desulfurizer overflow trough 2, which is located above the absorber flue gas inlet 10 and below the absorber spray layer 7. There is a height difference between the overflow liquid level of the desulfurizer overflow trough 2 and the liquid level in the absorber 1'. The upper end of the air inlet pipe 4 is open and the lower end is sealed. The upper air inlet of the air inlet pipe 4 extends outside the absorber 1'. The lower end of each gas-liquid mixing pipe 3 is connected to the desulfurizer aeration pipe 9. The number of gas-liquid mixing pipes 3, air inlet pipes 4, and desulfurizer aeration pipes 9 is equal. The spray pipe of the absorber spray layer 7 is connected to the desulfurizer upper tower pipeline 8.
[0021] like Figure 1 、 2 As shown, each gas-liquid mixing tube 3 is connected to the air inlet pipe 4 via two gas-liquid connecting tubes 5. The upper ends of each of the two gas-liquid connecting tubes 5 are connected to the bottom of the air inlet pipe 4, and the lower ends of each of the two gas-liquid connecting tubes 5 are connected to the upper portion of the gas-liquid mixing tube 3. Each gas-liquid connecting tube 5 includes a vertically arranged middle section, which is integrally formed or connected in sections, a head section connected to the upper end of the middle section, and a tail section connected to the lower end of the middle section. The connection between the head section and the air inlet pipe is higher than the connection between the head section and the middle section, and the connection between the tail section and the gas-liquid mixing tube 3 is lower than the connection between the tail section and the middle section.
[0022] The cross section of the desulfurizing agent collecting tank 1 is semi-circular, and the desulfurizing agent collecting tank 1 adopts an arc-shaped groove. Figure 2 There is a semicircular groove in the middle. A plurality of desulfurizing agent collecting tanks 1 are installed on the inner wall of the absorption tower 1'. The plurality of desulfurizing agent collecting tanks 1 are arranged from the inner wall of the absorption tower to the center of the absorption tower and tilted upward (that is, the connection between the desulfurizing agent collecting tank 1 and the inner wall of the absorption tower is lower than the free end of the desulfurizing agent collecting tank 1, see Figure 2 , the root of the desulfurizer collecting tank 1 is lower than the end), and holes 11 are formed in the desulfurizer collecting tank 1 near its fixed end (the root of the desulfurizer collecting tank 1). Multiple holes 11 are located directly above the desulfurizer overflow tank 2. The desulfurizer flowing out of the spray holes 71 of the spray pipe of the desulfurizer spray layer 7 falls into the desulfurizer collecting tank 1 and flows into the desulfurizer overflow tank 2 through the holes 11 in the desulfurizer collecting tank 1.
[0023] The desulfurization absorption tower auto-oxidation device of the present invention further includes a desulfurizer branch pipe 6, one end of which is connected to a desulfurizer upper tower pipeline 8, and the other end of which is connected to a desulfurizer overflow tank 2 to ensure overflow of the desulfurizer in the desulfurizer overflow tank 2. The inner diameter of the desulfurizer branch pipe 6 is smaller than the inner diameter of the spray pipe of the absorption tower spray layer 7.
[0024] The desulfurization absorption tower auto-oxidation device of the present invention further includes a desulfurizer circulation pump, which transports desulfurizer to the desulfurizer overflow tank 2 via a pipeline. The desulfurizer circulation pump can independently supply desulfurizer to the desulfurizer overflow tank 2. Alternatively, the desulfurizer circulation pump can simultaneously supply desulfurizer to the absorption tower spray layer 7 and the desulfurizer overflow tank 2 via the desulfurizer upper tower pipeline 8 and the desulfurizer branch pipe 6.
[0025] In the present invention, multiple desulfurizer collecting tanks 1 can also be installed on the overflow weir of the desulfurizer overflow tank 2, with the connection end of the desulfurizer collecting tank 1 and the overflow weir lower than the other end of the desulfurizer collecting tank 1. The installation position and tilt direction of the desulfurizer collecting tank 1 can be any as long as it can ensure that the desulfurizer flows into the desulfurizer overflow tank 2.
[0026] In a desulfurization absorption tower auto-oxidation device of the present invention, a desulfurizer overflow trough 2 is installed on the absorption tower wall, located above the absorption tower flue gas inlet 10, and located at an appropriate height below the first layer of the desulfurizer spray layer 7 to ensure that the overflow liquid level of the desulfurizer overflow trough 2 has the maximum height difference with the liquid level in the absorption tower 1'.
[0027] In the present invention, the gas-liquid mixing pipe 3 is connected to the bottom of the desulfurizer overflow tank 2 to ensure that the desulfurizer in the desulfurizer overflow tank 2 can flow into the gas-liquid mixing pipe 3 by itself.
[0028] In the present invention, the upper end opening of the air inlet pipe 4 is the air inlet, which extends out of the absorption tower 1' and communicates with the atmosphere. The bottom of the air inlet pipe 4 is connected to the gas-liquid connecting pipe 5 to ensure that the air outside the tower can be smoothly inhaled.
[0029] The present invention provides a desulfurization absorption tower self-oxidation device, which is installed on the absorption tower 1' when in use. The working principle is the siphon principle. Since the liquid level of the desulfurizer overflow tank is higher than the liquid level in the absorption tower, the liquid will naturally flow from high potential energy to low potential energy. During this process, negative pressure will be formed in the gas-liquid connecting pipe arranged on the gas-liquid mixing pipe. Since the upper part of the gas-liquid connecting pipe is connected to the air inlet pipe, and the air inlet pipe is connected to the atmosphere, air will naturally be sucked in. As the liquid continues to move downward, gas is also continuously sucked in. The movement of the liquid in the pipeline plays the role of a "piston". Air is continuously introduced into the position where aeration and oxidation are required through the gas-liquid connecting pipe, the gas-liquid mixing pipe, and the desulfurizer aeration pipe, thereby realizing aeration and oxidation. The entire working process proceeds spontaneously and has no effect on the desulfurization of the absorption tower. The entire device has no moving parts. As long as the absorption tower is working, the process proceeds automatically.
[0030] The present invention provides a desulfurization absorption tower self-oxidation device, which can replace the desulfurizer oxidation system of the limestone-gypsum wet desulfurization absorption tower for the limestone-gypsum wet desulfurization process; for the seawater desulfurization system, arranging the present invention on the absorption tower can help reduce the energy consumption of the seawater recovery system.
[0031] For the limestone-gypsum wet desulfurization system, when the desulfurization system is started, the desulfurizer provides slurry to the absorption tower through the upper tower pipeline 8. Part of the slurry can be controlled by the valve through the desulfurizer branch pipe 6 to enter the desulfurizer overflow tank 2, so that the self-oxidation device establishes a siphon phenomenon. When the siphon is established, outdoor air will be naturally sucked in and then sent to the slurry pool at the bottom of the absorption tower to achieve aeration oxidation. At the same time, the desulfurizer collection tank 1 can also collect part of the slurry to ensure that the desulfurizer overflow tank 2 overflows. During implementation, the number of desulfurizer collection tanks 1 can be calculated as needed. When there are a sufficient number of desulfurizer collection tanks 1, the desulfurizer branch pipe 6 can be cut off to reduce the load on the desulfurizer circulation pump. When in use, the number of this device required can be selected according to actual working conditions, and a better oxidation effect can be achieved through reasonable layout. After the absorption tower is installed with this device, the oxidation air system can be eliminated, thereby saving the initial project equipment investment and the subsequent operation and maintenance costs. It also saves project space and avoids the noise problem caused by the fan.
[0032] For the seawater desulfurization process, this device can be set between the lower part of the absorption tower packing layer and the absorption tower flue gas inlet. By setting a reasonable number, pre-aeration of seawater in the lower tower of the absorption tower can be achieved, thereby saving energy consumption of the seawater recovery system.
[0033] The present invention provides a desulfurization absorption tower auto-oxidation device, which has the following characteristics:
[0034] 1. Replace the oxidation aeration system of the limestone-gypsum wet desulfurization system, thereby achieving energy saving in the desulfurization system and reducing investment costs and operation and maintenance expenses.
[0035] 2. It can save part of the energy consumption of the seawater recovery system, that is, it reduces energy consumption.
[0036] 3. The structure is simple, the construction or renovation work is small, there are no moving parts, and no special maintenance is required, which reduces the operation and maintenance costs.
[0037] 4. After the siphon is established, the system will run automatically without the need for special monitoring means and will not affect the desulfurization effect.
[0038] 5. In order to achieve better oxidation effect, multiple groups can be set up without worrying about system energy consumption.
[0039] The present invention provides a desulfurization absorption tower self-oxidation device, which utilizes the siphon principle and reasonably arranges the air inlet pipeline to achieve self-oxidation of the desulfurizer in the absorption tower. It can replace the deoxidation air system of the existing limestone-gypsum wet desulfurization process and reduce the energy consumption of the seawater recovery system of the seawater desulfurization process, making the desulfurization system more energy-efficient while saving equipment space and operation and maintenance costs.
[0040] Those skilled in the art should know that the protection scheme of the present invention is not limited to the above-mentioned embodiments, and various arrangements, combinations and transformations can be made on the basis of the above-mentioned embodiments. Without violating the spirit of the present invention, various transformations of the present invention fall within the protection scope of the present invention.
