Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This invention relates to industrial ventilation, environmental protection, metallurgical flue gas treatment equipment, and safety production management, specifically to an integrated method for the inlet pipe, bypass, and manhole passage of a metallurgical flue gas dust collector. Background Technology
[0002] The metallurgical industry, such as iron and steel metallurgy, non-ferrous metal metallurgy, and building materials, generates a large amount of pollutants during production processes. Environmental protection measures such as dust removal, purification, and waste gas recycling are required. Ventilation equipment and dust collectors are commonly used equipment.
[0003] In the metallurgical industry, when a metallurgical furnace or production line is first put into operation or resumes production, the process of drying the production line and heating it before feeding materials will generate a large amount of flue gas that is dust-free or does not require dust removal by a dust collector. In the past, this was directly discharged into the atmosphere, causing environmental pollution. The current practice is to build a special flue gas treatment system to treat it, which increases the investment in the treatment system.
[0004] Metallurgical industrial production lines are generally designed with emergency valves. When the pressure on the production line exceeds the rated pressure, the emergency valve will automatically open to release pressure in order to avoid safety accidents. The traditional practice is to connect the emergency valve to the exhaust chimney for venting, which can also cause environmental pollution accidents. If a special pressure relief flue gas treatment facility is built, a large amount of capital investment is required.
[0005] When a metallurgical production line is shut down or ceases production, it is necessary to maintain and repair machinery and equipment. Generally, the machinery and equipment require specially designed manholes and passageways as pedestrian access for inspection, maintenance, and repair.
[0006] The aforementioned metallurgical production line requires separate design and construction of bypass pipelines and flue gas treatment facilities for drying and heating. It also necessitates the construction of specialized emergency valves and pressure relief flue gas emission and treatment facilities, as well as dedicated manholes and passageways on the machinery. This results in a complex structure, cumbersome operation, high operating costs, and substantial investment, exhibiting significant drawbacks. Summary of the Invention
[0007] The purpose of this invention is to provide an integrated method for the air inlet pipe, bypass and manhole passage of a metallurgical flue gas dust collector. This method has obvious advantages: simple and compact structure, multiple functions integrated, convenient and practical operation, low operating cost, and investment savings.
[0008] This invention provides the following technical solution:
[0009] An integrated method for an inlet duct, bypass, and manhole passage of a metallurgical flue gas dust collector includes the following four processes:
[0010] (1) When a metallurgical furnace or production line is first put into operation or resumes production, the process of drying the production line and heating the production line before feeding will generate a large amount of flue gas that is dust-free or does not need to be removed by a dust collector. Start the flue gas conveying equipment fan, close the cold air valve and the inlet valve; open the bypass valve, and the flue gas will directly enter the clean gas collection chamber under the action of the conveying equipment fan and be discharged into the desulfurization tower from the clean gas outlet pipe; after the drying and heating meet the specified requirements, open the inlet valve, close the bypass valve, and enter the next stage of the production process.
[0011] (2) When putting into normal production, open the inlet valve and close the bypass valve. When the temperature is high, open the cooling air valve. The flue gas enters the pulse dust collector for dust removal. The clean gas is collected in the clean gas collection chamber and discharged into the desulfurization tower for treatment through the clean gas outlet pipe.
[0012] (3) When the pressure in the metallurgical production line exceeds the rated pressure, the bypass valve automatically opens as an emergency valve to relieve pressure, and the flue gas is discharged into the clean gas collection chamber and treated by the desulfurization tower through the clean gas outlet pipe.
[0013] (4) When shutting down or stopping production for inspection and maintenance, close the cooling air valve and the inlet valve, and open the bypass valve; maintenance personnel climb up the bypass and manhole access ladder to the top cover of the bypass and manhole access, open the top cover of the bypass and manhole access, and enter the bypass and manhole access through the inner ladder; check the flue gas inlet pipe, cooling air valve, inlet valve and flue gas distribution chamber from the connecting flange A, and make an inspection and maintenance plan; enter the clean gas conversion chamber and clean gas concentration chamber to inspect, inspect and maintain the internal facilities; maintenance personnel climb out of the bypass and manhole access through the inner ladder, close the top cover of the bypass and manhole access, and climb down the bypass and manhole access through the outer ladder to complete the inspection and maintenance process.
[0014] In step (4) above, opening the bypass and manhole cover: unscrew the bypass and manhole cover bolts; rotate the bypass and manhole cover, and the cover opening shaft rotates along the cover opening shaft seat to complete opening the bypass and manhole cover.
[0015] In step (4) above, closing the bypass and manhole cover: rotate the bypass and manhole cover, rotate the cover opening shaft along the cover opening shaft seat, tighten the screws, and close the bypass and manhole cover.
[0016] The overall equipment of the above-mentioned integrated method for the inlet duct, bypass and manhole passage of the metallurgical flue gas dust collector.
[0017] The system includes a flue gas inlet duct, a flue gas distribution chamber, a bypass and manhole passage, an external ladder and an internal ladder for the bypass and manhole passage, a top cover for the bypass and manhole passage, a clean gas conversion chamber, a clean gas concentration chamber, a pulse dust collector, and a bag filter chamber. The flue gas inlet duct is connected to the flue gas distribution chamber via an inlet valve. A cooling air mixing valve is installed at the left end of the flue gas inlet duct. The right end of the flue gas inlet duct is connected to the bypass and manhole passage via connecting flange A, a bypass valve, and connecting flange B. The bypass and manhole passage has an internal ladder and an external ladder. The top cover of the bypass and manhole passage is connected to the top of the bypass and manhole passage via connecting flange C. The pulse dust collector consists of a flue gas distribution chamber, a clean gas conversion chamber, a clean gas concentration chamber, and a bag filter chamber. The clean gas concentration chamber is equipped with a clean gas outlet pipe.
[0018] Furthermore, the flue gas inlet pipe, the cooling air valve, the inlet valve, the flue gas distribution chamber, the connecting flange A, the bypass valve, the connecting flange B, the bypass and manhole passage, the inner ladder, the top cover of the bypass and manhole passage, and the outer ladder of the bypass and manhole passage are integrated into a part of the pulse dust collector. The clean gas concentration chamber, a part of the pulse dust collector structure, serves as the bypass conveying channel, which is connected to the bypass and manhole passage at the front and to the clean gas outlet pipe and the desulfurization tower at the rear.
[0019] Furthermore, the bypass and manhole passage top cover is mounted on the side seat of the bypass and manhole passage via a cover opening pivot and a cover opening pivot seat.
[0020] Furthermore, the pulse dust collector is equipped with a lifting valve.
[0021] This invention has the following characteristics:
[0022] 1. The clean air collection chamber, part of the pulse dust collector structure, is used as a bypass conveying channel. It is connected to the bypass and manhole channels at the front and to the clean air outlet pipe and desulfurization tower at the rear. There is no need to design and construct special bypass pipelines and treatment facilities.
[0023] 2. The bypass and manhole passages serve as both bypass connection pipes and manhole passages. The inner ladder, the top cover of the bypass and manhole passages, and the outer ladder of the bypass and manhole passages are auxiliary components that complete this function.
[0024] 3. Opening the bypass valve can serve as an observation port, allowing you to view the interior of the flue gas inlet pipe, the cooling air mixing valve, the inlet valve, and the flue gas distribution chamber through the connecting flange A.
[0025] 4. The bypass valve acts as an emergency valve. When the pressure on the production line exceeds the rated pressure, it will automatically open through the control system and discharge the gas into the desulfurization tower for treatment. This will relieve the pressure on the production line system and prevent safety accidents. It will also allow the depressurized flue gas to enter the desulfurization tower for treatment and meet emission standards, thus avoiding environmental accidents caused by pressure relief.
[0026] 5. The flue gas inlet duct, cold air mixing valve, inlet valve, flue gas distribution chamber and connecting flange A, bypass valve, connecting flange B, bypass and manhole passage, inner ladder, bypass and manhole passage top cover, bypass and manhole passage outer ladder, connecting flange C, opening shaft, and opening shaft seat are integrated into one part of the pulse dust collector. It has a compact structure, strong practicality, and simple operation.
[0027] 6. The bypass and manhole passage serves as both a manhole and a ladder, acting as a manhole and access ladder for inspection, maintenance, and repair. It also acts as a passage connecting the flue gas inlet pipe and the clean gas outlet pipe. At the same time, the connecting flange A5 is the observation port for the flue gas inlet pipe's cooling air valve, inlet valve, and flue gas distribution chamber.
[0028] 7. The connection between the flue gas inlet pipe and the clean gas outlet pipe is through the clean gas central chamber, avoiding the need for a bypass pipe that would otherwise be added to connect the inlet and outlet pipes using long pipes and components. Attached Figure Description
