Description

Technical Field

[0001] This invention relates to the field of industrial wastewater treatment technology, and more specifically, to a device for evaporating and concentrating desulfurized wastewater using low-temperature flue gas. Background Technology

[0002] Traditional treatment methods ("three-stage treatment") for desulfurization wastewater generated after treating flue gas from coal-fired power plants primarily rely on chemical treatment, mainly consisting of neutralization, sedimentation, flocculation, and concentration / clarification processes. However, even after this simple chemical treatment involving chemical dosing, coagulation, and sedimentation, the desulfurization wastewater still exhibits high salt content and high corrosivity, negatively impacting the environment whether directly discharged or incorporated into municipal wastewater treatment plants. Therefore, it is necessary to concentrate the desulfurization wastewater, followed by pressure filtration or evaporation to achieve zero discharge.

[0003] Conventional desulfurization wastewater treatment processes utilize the waste heat of flue gas to completely evaporate the desulfurization wastewater. The concentrated wastewater is then sprayed into the flue or bypass flue through atomizing nozzles or rotary atomizers. After atomization, the wastewater is heated and evaporated by the flue gas, causing dissolved salts to crystallize and precipitate. These crystals are then collected by the dust collector along with the dust in the flue gas. The demister inside the tower is mainly composed of corrugated blades, plates, and clamping strips, and is currently an important component inside the desulfurization tower used to remove mist from the purified gas. Although the demister's structure is adjusted to prevent clogging, it is still prone to clogging after prolonged use, reducing its demisting effect.

[0004] No effective solutions have yet been proposed to address the problems in the relevant technologies. Summary of the Invention

[0011] Preferably, the sleeve is provided with a vertically arranged demister II, which is connected to the sleeve through the switching assembly, and both sides of the sleeve are provided with matching cover plates.

[0012] Preferably, the buffer box is provided with a plurality of evenly distributed filter plates, the filter plates are connected to the buffer box by a quick-release assembly, and a sealing plate is provided on one side of the buffer box.

[0013] Preferably, the quick-release assembly includes a side plate one and a side plate two located inside the buffer box. The side plates one and the side plates two are respectively provided with slots that match a plurality of filter plates on their adjacent sides. The inner wall of each slot is provided with a toothed groove, and the filter plates are provided with locking rods that match the toothed grooves on both sides.

[0014] Preferably, the quick-release assembly further includes a cavity located within the filter plate, wherein a slider one and a slider two are symmetrically arranged within the cavity, and a locking rod is provided on the side of the slider one and the slider two that are far apart from each other.

This facilitates cleaning and replacement, and minimizes the impact of demister blockage on the efficiency of the desulfurization tower. Attached Figure Description

[0032] like Figure 1-6 As shown, the sleeve 6 is equipped with a vertically arranged demister II, which is connected to the sleeve 6 via the switching assembly. Both sides of the sleeve 6 are provided with matching cover plates 25. The buffer box 2 is provided with a plurality of evenly distributed filter plates 26, which are connected to the buffer box 2 via a quick-release assembly.

One end of the rotating shaft 36 has a knob extending outside the filter plate 26.

[0034] To facilitate understanding of the above technical solutions of the present invention, the working principle or operation method of the present invention in actual process will be described in detail below.

[0035] In practical applications, the atomizing spray assembly 5 ensures uniform atomization of the desulfurization wastewater, increasing evaporation efficiency. After heating, the desulfurization wastewater is evenly sprayed into the evaporation tower through the atomizing spray assembly and falls back to the bottom. Low-temperature saturated humid air enters the evaporation tower and mixes uniformly with it in the opposite direction. At the same time, some of the evaporated water is carried by the air, which becomes high-temperature saturated. The high-temperature saturated humid air enters the air condenser and is recooled by circulating cooling water to low-temperature saturated humid air. The condensate can be used for desulfurization and other power plant process water. After the demister 4 has been used for a period of time, the waterproof motor 24 is started to drive the fixed shaft 11 to rotate. The fixed shaft 11 drives the arc rod 21 to move clockwise through the connecting rod 22. At the same time, the arc rod 21 drives the connecting frame 16 to rotate clockwise through the fixed plate 15. The connecting rod 13 and the L-shaped connecting rod 14 guide the fixed plate 15, so that the demister 4... 4. Enter the sleeve 6, then start another waterproof motor 24, which drives the fixed shaft 11 of another switching component to rotate counterclockwise. This allows the second demister to extend from the sleeve 6 into the evaporation tower 1, enabling a rapid change in the position of the two demisters. This helps to prevent clogging of the demisters inside the evaporation tower after prolonged use, facilitating cleaning and replacement. When the filter plate 26 needs cleaning after prolonged use, open the sealing plate and turn the knob. The knob drives the tightening wheel 35 to rotate via the rotating shaft 36. This causes the tightening wheel 35 to pull the rope 37, moving the slider 1 32 and slider 2 33 towards the center. This causes the slider 1 32 and slider 2 33 to retract the locking rod 30 and separate it from the groove in the slot 29, thus removing the filter plate 26. Then, each filter plate 26 can be pulled out for cleaning and replacement. This is used to filter impurities in the water, preventing impurities from clogging the pipes.

[0036] In summary, by utilizing the above-mentioned technical solution of the present invention, the atomizing spray assembly 5 ensures that the desulfurization wastewater is uniformly atomized, increasing evaporation efficiency. After heating, the desulfurization wastewater is uniformly sprayed into the evaporation tower through the atomizing spray assembly and falls back to the bottom. Low-temperature saturated humid air enters the evaporation tower and mixes uniformly with it in the opposite direction. At the same time, some of the evaporated water is carried by the air, and the air becomes high-temperature saturated. The high-temperature saturated humid air enters the air condenser and is recooled by the circulating cooling water into low-temperature saturated humid air. The condensate can be used for desulfurization and other power plant process water. The design of the cooperation between the demister 1 4 and the demister 2 and the switching assembly enables the rapid change of the position of the two demisters, thereby minimizing the risk of clogging of the demisters inside the evaporation tower after prolonged use. This facilitates cleaning and replacement, and minimizes the impact of demister clogging on the efficiency of the desulfurization tower.

[0037] The above description is only a preferred embodiment of the present invention and is not intended to limit the present invention. Any modifications, equivalent substitutions, improvements, etc., made within the spirit and principles of the present invention should be included within the protection scope of the present invention.
