Description

Technical Field

[0001] This invention relates to the field of waste gas treatment technology, and specifically to an organic waste gas treatment device. Background Technology

[0002] Spray painting machines are important equipment in the comprehensive painting process of wood products. Generally, the following two types of pollutants are generated during the painting process:

[0003] Paint mist—When paint is under high pressure, it releases trace particles, which are dispersed by the airflow to form paint mist.

[0004] Organic waste gas—organic solvents are used to dilute paint to achieve a smooth and aesthetically pleasing surface. However, organic solvents do not adhere to the painted surface with the paint. During the painting process, all organic solvents are released, forming organic waste gas (mainly composed of VOCs). Organic waste gas is an irritating, colorless gas that, when released into the atmosphere, can cause significant harm to people through respiration or direct exposure, and also severely impacts the surrounding environment. Existing adsorption devices are inefficient at treating organic waste gas. Summary of the Invention

[0028] The present invention will now be described in further detail with reference to the accompanying drawings. These drawings are simplified schematic diagrams, illustrating only the basic structure of the invention, and therefore only show the components relevant to the invention.

Those skilled in the art can understand the specific meaning of the above terms in this invention based on the specific circumstances.

[0030] like Figure 1 As shown, the present invention provides an organic waste gas treatment device, including a primary treatment device 2, a spray tower 3, a UV curing oven 4, a multi-stage filter 5, an adsorption cylinder 7, and a regenerative thermal incinerator 11. The primary treatment device 2 receives paint mist generated by a paint sprayer 1 and performs preliminary treatment on the paint mist. The spray tower 3 further treats paint residue and paint mist in the waste gas. The UV curing oven 4 cures the paint mist in the waste gas. The multi-stage filter 5 intercepts and absorbs paint mist particles. The adsorption cylinder 7 absorbs organic matter in the waste gas and discharges the purified gas through a chimney. The regenerative thermal incinerator 11 treats the waste gas desorbed by the adsorption cylinder 7 and discharges the treated gas through a chimney. This invention utilizes a primary treatment device 2 to recycle paint, avoiding energy waste. A spray tower 3 removes organic components from the waste gas using a spraying method. A UV curing oven 4 solidifies and separates the paint molecules in the waste gas. Then, a multi-stage filter 5, an adsorption cylinder 7, and a regenerative thermal oxidizer 11 further intercept and absorb the mist particles, thereby achieving the purpose of purifying paint mist. At the same time, a combination process of zeolite adsorption concentration and RTO incineration is adopted. The entire system realizes a closed loop of purification and desorption processes. Compared with organic waste gas purification devices that rely on recycling, it does not require additional energy sources such as steam or additional equipment such as cooling towers. The operation process does not generate secondary pollution, and the adsorbent can be regenerated and reused after saturation by hot air desorption.

[0031] In some examples of the present invention, the primary processing device 2 includes a housing. Inside the housing, from bottom to top, are arranged a baffle mesh 201 and a sponge filter 202. The air inlet of the housing is located below the baffle mesh 201, and the air outlet is located above the sponge filter 202. A recycling box 203 is located at the bottom of the housing, below the baffle mesh 201. Using this design, when paint mist enters the housing through the air inlet, the baffle mesh 201 filters both solid and liquid paint mist, while the gaseous paint mist is initially filtered by the sponge filter 202. The filtered paint mist then flows into the recycling box 203 for recycling, saving energy and reducing costs.

[0032] In some examples of the present invention, the air inlet of the spray tower 3 is connected to the air outlet pipe of the housing. The spray tower 3 is equipped with a packing absorption module 301, and the air inlet of the spray tower 3 is located at the lower end of the packing absorption module 301. A spray gun 302 is arranged above the packing absorption module 301, and an absorbent tank 303 is arranged on the bottom side of the spray tower 3. A pump body is arranged on the absorbent tank 303 to transport the absorbent to the spray gun 302. The air outlet of the spray tower 3 is connected to the air inlet of the UV curing oven 4, and the air outlet of the UV curing oven 4 is connected to the air inlet of the multi-stage filter 5. A water curtain is used to wash the paint residue and paint mist in the exhaust gas to the bottom of the tower for discharge. Volatile organic compounds insoluble in water are discharged to the subsequent multi-stage filter 5 by a fan. The spraying method can remove more than 85% of the paint residue and paint mist components in the exhaust gas. Organic waste gas is introduced into the spray tower, where water forms a liquid film on the surface of the packing absorption module 301. The gas-liquid two-phase flow pattern inside the tower is usually countercurrent. The absorbent is added from the top of the tower and flows from top to bottom, contacting the gas flowing from bottom to top. Taking advantage of the large specific surface area of ​​the packing, the liquid film and gas are in more complete contact, which improves the absorption efficiency. The liquid that has absorbed the absorbent is discharged from the bottom of the tower, and the purified gas is discharged from the top of the tower, thereby separating paint residue and paint mist from the waste gas.

[0033] In some examples of this invention, the multi-stage filter 5 is internally arranged with a glass fiber pre-filter 501, an F5-grade medium-efficiency filter bag 502, and an F9-grade high-efficiency filter bag 503 sequentially along the air inlet to outlet direction. The dry filter uses a dedicated dry paint mist filtration material as its core component. Waste gas that was not properly treated in the preceding process passes through multiple layers of progressively denser flame-retardant glass fiber material. Paint mist particles are intercepted, collided with, and absorbed, accumulating within the material's surface area, thus achieving the purpose of purifying the paint mist. When the organic waste gas containing paint mist from the production workshop passes through the high-efficiency water curtain cabinet, approximately 85% of the paint residue and paint mist are washed and settled into the collection tank. Waste gas containing some paint residue, paint mist, and moisture enters the glass fiber pre-filter through the collection pipe. The paint mist and moisture are filtered by the stacked glass fiber, which agglomerates on the surface and inside the glass fiber. Waste gas with most of the paint residue and moisture removed then passes through the filter layer into the subsequent filters. When the gas enters the F5-grade bag filter, fine dust and other particles that were not handled in the previous process are filtered out by the non-woven F5-grade filter bag (95%), while the relatively clean exhaust gas passes through subsequent filters. The F9-grade filter bag filters out the very little dust that may have been caused by breakage or leakage of the filter media in the previous process (99%). The F9-grade filter bag ultimately and effectively protects the subsequent molecular sieve adsorbent from contamination by impurities.

[0034] In some examples of the present invention, the adsorption cylinder 7 is provided with a honeycomb zeolite molecular sieve rotating cylinder 701, which includes an adsorption zone and a desorption zone. The air inlet of the adsorption cylinder 7 is positioned towards the adsorption zone of the honeycomb zeolite molecular sieve rotating cylinder 701, and an air outlet channel is formed in the middle of the honeycomb zeolite molecular sieve rotating cylinder 701, which is connected to a chimney. A first fan 6 is provided between the multi-stage filter 5 and the adsorption cylinder 7. The adsorption cylinder 7 has an adsorption zone and a desorption zone. When a portion of the honeycomb zeolite molecular sieve 701 becomes saturated in the adsorption zone, this portion of the honeycomb zeolite molecular sieve 701 is rotated and slowly enters the desorption zone. After the desorbed honeycomb zeolite molecular sieve 701 cools naturally, it returns to the adsorption zone with rotation to continue adsorption.

[0035] In some examples of the present invention, the organic waste gas treatment device further includes a second fan 8, a heat exchanger 9, and a heater 10. The second fan 8 is used to transport part of the gas discharged from the air outlet channel in the middle of the honeycomb zeolite molecular sieve rotating cylinder 701 to the cold pipe of the heat exchanger 9 for heat exchange and heating. The gas is then further heated by the heater 10 and blown into the desorption zone of the honeycomb zeolite molecular sieve rotating cylinder 701 through the air outlet channel. The adsorption cylinder 7 is also provided with a desorption gas outlet. The desorbed gas outlet is configured to correspond to the desorption zone of the honeycomb zeolite molecular sieve rotating cylinder 701. The desorbed gas outlet is connected to the air inlet of the regenerative thermal incinerator 11, and the air outlet of the regenerative thermal incinerator 11 is connected to the chimney. A bypass valve is provided on the regenerative thermal incinerator 11, and the bypass valve is connected to the heat pipe of the heat exchanger 9. The air outlet of the heat pipe of the heat exchanger 9 is connected to the chimney. The heat pipe and cold pipe in the heat exchanger 9 achieve heat exchange.

[0036] The organic waste gas, after most of the moisture and paint residue (paint mist) have been removed, is then passed into the adsorption cylinder 7, where it comes into full contact with the honeycomb zeolite molecular sieve rotating cylinder 701. The strong adsorption capacity of the molecular sieve for organic matter is utilized to purify the gas, ensuring it meets emission standards. Once the molecular sieve is saturated, it slowly enters the desorption zone as it rotates. Inside the desorption zone, the honeycomb zeolite molecular sieve rotating cylinder 701 is rapidly heated to 180℃-210℃ by hot air, blowing the adsorbed volatile organic compounds away from the molecular sieve and sending them with the hot air to a regenerative thermal oxidizer (RTO) for combustion. After desorption, the molecular sieve cools naturally and returns to the adsorption zone as it rotates to continue adsorption. This cycle continues.

[0037] Utilizing the adsorption properties of the microporous structure of molecular sieves to adsorb organic waste gas is one of the most effective industrial treatment methods. Modified molecular sieves, after activation treatment, typically achieve a specific surface area of ​​600-700 m². 2 / g, possessing excellent and broad adsorption capacity. Adsorption can achieve a purification efficiency of up to 90-95% for organic waste gas. The modified molecular sieve is also a non-polar adsorbent, exhibiting hydrophobic and organic-loving properties. It can adsorb specific organic gases, such as benzenes, aldehydes, ketones, alcohols, hydrocarbons, and malodorous substances. After the molecular sieve becomes saturated, it can be regenerated by hot air desorption, allowing it to be reused. The zeolite rotary adsorption equipment is equipped with a rotation drive mechanism; by adjusting the rotation speed of the drive, the adsorption concentration factor of the waste gas can be effectively increased by 10-40 times.

[0038] The waste gas desorbed from the desorption zone is fed into the regenerator chamber of a regenerative thermal oxidizer (RTO). As the waste gas rises, it is heated by the preheated regenerator. During this ascent, organic molecules begin to undergo oxidation. The gas finally enters the combustion chamber, where it is completely decomposed into carbon dioxide (CO2) and water (H2O) at high temperatures, generating a large amount of heat. This hot gas then enters the regenerator chamber to heat the regenerator. The final treated gas is then discharged from the RTO outlet through the chimney. The regenerator in the regenerator chamber absorbs heat and is used to heat newly input low-temperature waste gas in the next cycle.

[0039] This invention provides a VOC waste gas treatment device that can operate continuously and reliably for a long time without affecting production and ensuring the health and hygiene needs of operators. After paint mist is collected, most of the paint mist is treated through recycling, light curing, high-efficiency spraying, and filtration pretreatment. Finally, a combination of zeolite adsorption concentration and RTO incineration is used. The entire system achieves a closed-loop cycle of purification and desorption processes. Compared with recycling-type organic waste gas purification devices, it does not require additional energy sources such as steam or additional equipment such as cooling towers. It does not generate secondary pollution during operation, and the adsorbent can be regenerated and reused after saturation through hot air desorption.
