Abstract
Description

[0001] The present invention relates to the technical field of seawater desalination, in particular to an evaporation device for seawater desalination. Background Art
[0002] In the seawater desalination process, distillation is the earliest desalination technology to be put into industrial application.

[0025] In order to make the technical means, creative features, objectives and effects achieved by the present invention easier to understand, the present invention is further described below in conjunction with specific implementation methods.
[0026] See also Figures 1 to 5 The present invention provides a technical solution: an evaporation device for seawater desalination, comprising an evaporation device body, the evaporation device body comprising an evaporation tank 1, a heating module 3, a steam pipeline assembly 4, a seawater pipeline assembly 5 and a cooling assembly 6, the inner bottom of the evaporation tank 1 is provided with a heating module 3, the top of the heating module 3 is provided with a preheating plate 11, the surface of the preheating plate 11 is connected to the steam pipeline assembly 4, the top of the evaporation tank 1 is provided with a guide rod 2, the bottom of the guide rod 2 passes through the surface of the preheating plate 11, the top of the evaporation tank 1 is connected with the seawater pipeline assembly 5, the seawater pipeline assembly 5 and the steam pipeline assembly 4 are connected. A cooling assembly 6 is provided at the connection point. A slag removal port 23 is provided at the bottom of the evaporation tank 1, and the top and bottom of the evaporation tank 1 are both tapered structures. The evaporation device for seawater desalination injects the seawater raw material into the inner side of the evaporation tank 1 along the seawater pipeline assembly 5. After the seawater raw material is heated by the heating module 3 at the bottom of the evaporation tank 1, a large amount of steam is generated. The steam is then introduced into the steam pipeline assembly 4, flows along the steam pipeline assembly 4, and utilizes the heat of the steam inside the steam pipeline assembly 4 through the preheating plate 11 inside the evaporation tank 1. Finally, the steam is discharged to the outside and enters the cooling assembly 6 for cooling treatment, thereby completing the entire evaporation process of producing fresh water.
[0027] In this embodiment, the steam pipeline assembly 4 includes a steam guide pipe 8 and a lifting sleeve 9. A steam inlet 7 is provided on the top of the evaporation tank 1. A lifting pipe 10 is inserted into the inner side of the lifting sleeve 9. The bottom of the lifting pipe 10 is connected to the surface of the preheating plate 11. The top of the steam inlet 7 is connected to one end of the steam guide pipe 8. The other side of the surface of the preheating plate 11 is connected to an exhaust pipe 15. The exhaust pipe 15 is connected to the cooling assembly 6 to introduce the generated steam back into the inner side of the evaporation tank 1 to preheat the injected seawater, thereby achieving The dual effects of cooling the steam and assisting in heating the injected seawater raw material improve the utilization rate of heat and reduce the overall power demand. This solution improves the desalination efficiency. Specifically, after the external seawater is injected into the inner side of the evaporation tank 1, the steam generated by the heating will enter the inner side of the steam pipeline assembly 4 through the steam inlet 7 at the top, and then flow back into the lifting sleeve 9 inside the evaporation tank 1 through the steam guide pipe 8. In conjunction with the lifting pipe 10 at the bottom, the steam can be injected into the preheating plate 11 at the bottom to preheat the low-temperature seawater injected subsequently.
[0028] In this embodiment, the seawater pipeline assembly 5 includes a nozzle 16 and a seawater delivery pipe 17. The top of the seawater delivery pipe 17 penetrates from the top of the evaporation tank 1 to the inside, and the top of the nozzle 16 is connected to the inside of the seawater delivery pipe 17. The cooling assembly 6 includes a cooling pipe 20 and a sandwich pipe 19. A heat exchange channel 22 is provided inside the sandwich pipe 19. The top of one end of the sandwich pipe 19 is connected to the seawater delivery pipe 17. The cooling pipe 20 is connected to the discharge pipe 15, and a plurality of heat conduction plates 21 are provided on the surface of the cooling pipe 20. The surface of each of the heat conduction plates 21 is provided with a hole structure. The cooling pipe 20 is in direct contact with the seawater flowing inside the heat exchange channel 22 through the heat conduction plate 21 on the surface. The bottom of the sandwich pipe 19 is connected to the seawater injection port 18, and the sandwich pipe 19 is connected to the seawater injection port 18. Both ends of the layer pipe 19 are welded to the surface of the cooling pipe 20 as a whole. When the steam is discharged toward the outside, this part of the steam pipe is surrounded by the injected seawater pipe through the cooling component 6, so that the temperature on the steam pipe is quickly and efficiently transferred to the seawater pipe, achieving a cooling effect, thereby reducing the working pressure of the subsequent condensation equipment. Specifically, after the steam is discharged outward from the exhaust pipe 15 on the other side that can also be raised and lowered through the preheating plate 11, it can enter the cooling component 6. In this area, the steam moves from the cooling pipe 20 in the interlayer pipe 19, and the steam heat inside the cooling pipe 20 can be quickly flowed outward through the surface of the cooling pipe 20 and the heat conduction plate 21. With the help of the reverse flowing seawater inside the interlayer pipe 19, efficient cooling treatment is achieved, thereby reducing the cooling pressure of the subsequent condensation equipment.
[0029] In this embodiment, a floating plate 13 is provided on the top side of the preheating plate 11, and a fitting vertebral plate 14 is provided on the bottom of the floating plate 13. A through hole 12 is provided on the inner side of the preheating plate 11, and a plurality of through holes 12 are provided. A heating cavity 28 is provided on the inner side of the preheating plate 11. The lifting pipe 10 and the discharge pipe 15 are both connected to the interior of the heating cavity 28. The guide rod 2 passes through two of the through holes 12. The preheating plate 11 is provided on the inner side of the evaporation tank 1. By controlling the floating plate 13 with seawater, the preheating plate 11 can be passed through after the distillation is completed. By the sinking of the floating plate 13 and the preheating plate 11, the crystals and precipitates adhering to the surface of the heating tube 25 are automatically scraped off, thereby achieving the effect of automatic cleaning and reducing the difficulty and workload of subsequent manual cleaning. Since the top guide rod 2 passes through two of the through holes 12 on the preheating plate 11, the entire preheating plate 11 can only be lifted and lowered vertically along the guide rod 2. When seawater is injected into the interior, the entire preheating plate 11 can be floated. When the distillation is completed, as the internal seawater is discharged, the preheating plate 11 can automatically sink by its own gravity.
[0030] In this embodiment, the heating module 3 is composed of a plurality of heating tubes 25. A collecting tank 24 is provided at the bottom of the inner side of the evaporator 1. The bottom of the heating tube 25 is fixed to the surface of the collecting tank 24 as a whole. A supporting base 26 is provided at the bottom of the evaporator 1. The fitting vertebral plate 14 and the collecting tank 24 have the same size specifications. Each heating tube 25 passes through the inside of the through hole 12, and an inner scraping strip 27 is provided at the bottom end of the inner wall of the through hole 12. The inner side of the inner scraping strip 27 fits with the surface of the heating tube 25. Specifically, after the distillation is completed, a large amount of precipitation and crystallization generated during the distillation process adheres to the surface of the heating tube 25. As the pre-heating plate 11 sinks, the inner scraping strip 27 inside the through hole 12 can contact the surface of the heating tube 25, thereby scraping off the crystals on the heating tube 25 and finally accumulating them in the collecting tank 24. The subsequent rinsing and cleaning process is achieved through the slag removal port 23 at the bottom of the collecting tank 24.
