[0002] Currently, selective catalytic reduction (SCR) denitrification technology is commonly used in cement industry kiln tail gas treatment to control nitrogen oxides and ammonia escape. SCR denitrification technology is the most efficient and promising denitrification technology, and has become a widely adopted method for efficient NOx control across various industries both domestically and internationally. X The primary choice for emissions control. As a core component of the denitrification system, protecting the catalyst and extending its service life has become an important issue in the cement SCR denitrification industry.

This involves a heavy workload and high labor costs, and can only clean dust from the catalyst surface, failing to remove accumulated ash from the catalyst channels, resulting in a short catalyst lifespan and low denitrification efficiency. Therefore, it is necessary to research a dust removal system for denitrification of cement kiln tail gas. Summary of the Invention

[0024] The present invention will now be described in detail with reference to the accompanying drawings and specific embodiments.
[0025] See Figure 1The present invention discloses a dust removal system for denitrification of cement kiln flue gas, comprising a kiln body 1 and a dust removal system. Multiple catalyst modules are installed inside the kiln body 1 from top to bottom. Each catalyst module includes multiple catalyst units 2, and each catalyst unit 2 includes multiple channels 2.1 for gas to pass through. The dust removal system includes multiple dust removal units, each dust removal unit including a soot blowing mechanism and a cleaning mechanism.
[0026] See Figure 2 The cleaning mechanism includes a fixed plate 3, multiple cleaning rods 4, and a lifting assembly that drives the cleaning rods 4 to move up and down. Cleaning brushes 4.5 are provided on the outer wall and bottom of the cleaning rods 4. A first lifting rod 11 is vertically connected to one side of the top of the cleaning rod 4 via a vertical rod. A first driving cylinder 12 is connected to both sides of the top of the first lifting rod 11 via a first telescopic rod. The first driving cylinder 12 drives the cleaning rods 4 to move up and down to clean the channels 2.1 of the catalyst unit 2. Connecting blocks 16 are fixed to both sides of the upper part of the catalyst unit 2. The two connecting blocks 16 are connected to the two ends of the fixed plate 3 by bolts. The first driving cylinder 12 is slidably connected to the bottom of the fixed plate 3 to drive the cleaning rods 4 to move left and right, thus cleaning the surface of the catalyst unit 2. The sliding connection method uses a slider, slide rail, and sliding motor technology, which is a commonly used technical means in the prior art and will not be described in detail.
[0027] See Figures 3-6 The cleaning rod 4 has a storage cavity 4.1 inside and a moving channel 4.2 connecting the storage cavity 4.1 and the top of the cleaning rod 4. The storage cavity 4.1 is equipped with a sludge scraping assembly, which includes a traction rod 5 and scrapers 7 connected to both sides of the traction rod 5 by a first spring 6. The first spring 6 is fixedly connected to the traction rod 5 at a downward tilt angle of 20~45° to facilitate the ejection and retraction of the scrapers 7. The bottom end of the traction rod 5 is connected to the bottom wall of the storage cavity 4.1 by a second spring 8, and the top end of the traction rod 5 is fixedly connected to a pull rod 9.
[0028] Both sides of the lower part of the cleaning rod 4 are provided with openings 4.3 that communicate with the storage cavity 4.1. When the second spring 8 is in a compressed state, the scraper 7 moves downward, the first spring 6 extends, and the scraper 7 pops out through the openings 4.3. The front end of the scraper 7 is provided with multiple sharp teeth 7.1, which can clean the accumulated dust in the channel 2.1. The top of the pull rod 9 extends out of the top of the moving channel 4.2 and is fixedly connected to the second lifting rod 13. Both sides of the top of the second lifting rod 13 are connected to the second drive cylinder 14 fixed to the bottom of the first lifting rod 11 through the second telescopic rod. The second drive cylinder 14 drives the pull rod 9 to move up and down, so as to realize the pop-out and retraction of the scraper 7. After cleaning, the second drive cylinder 14 drives the pull rod 9 to move upward, the pull rod 9 drives the traction rod 5 to move upward, and then the first spring 6 retracts the scraper 7 into the storage cavity 4.1. Because the outer diameter of the cleaning rod 4 corresponds to the inner diameter of the channel 2.1, if the scraper 7 pops out first, it will affect the cleaning rod 4 entering the channel 2.1. During operation, the scraper 7 should be popped out after the cleaning rod 4 has entered the channel 2.1.
[0029] The soot blowing mechanism includes multiple soot blowing components positioned above the catalyst unit 2, each including a soot blowing pipe 10. The second lifting rod 13 has a first airflow channel inside, and the pull rod 9 has a second airflow channel communicating with the first airflow channel. Multiple first air holes are located on the side wall of the pull rod 9. The cleaning rod 4 has second air holes 4.4 on both sides communicating with the moving channel 4.2. The bottom of the soot blowing pipe 10 is connected to the first airflow channel of the second lifting rod 13 via a flexible hose 17. Air enters the first airflow channel through the hose 17, then passes through the second airflow channel, the first air holes, and the second air holes 4.4, blowing air towards the side wall of the orifice 2.1 to clean the accumulated ash in the orifice 2.1. Using the flexible hose 17 avoids affecting the movement of the first lifting rod 11 and the second lifting rod 12. Multiple spray guns 15 are located on the side of the soot blowing pipe 10 closest to the catalyst unit 2. One side of the soot blowing pipe 10 is connected to an air supply pipe, allowing for the cleaning of the surface of the catalyst unit 2.
[0030] The kiln body 1 is also equipped with a feed inlet, an air outlet, and an operating door, through which workers can enter and exit to install and disassemble the cleaning mechanism. There are multiple catalyst units 2 in the kiln body 1, each capable of housing a corresponding cleaning mechanism. The diameter of the cleaning rod 4 corresponds to the diameter of the channel 2.1 of the catalyst unit 2, facilitating its better entry into the channel 2.1.
[0031] To better illustrate the present invention, its working process is described in detail below:
[0032] When cleaning the catalyst unit 2 is required, the cement kiln operation is first suspended. The worker installs the cleaning mechanism in the kiln body 1. After preparation, the cleaning rod 4 is moved left and right by the sliding component to clean the ash on the surface of the catalyst unit 2. Then, the first drive cylinder 12 is turned on to send the cleaning rod 4 into the corresponding channel 2.1 of the catalyst unit 2, and the cleaning rod 4 is moved up and down to clean the inner wall of the channel 2.1. At the same time, the second drive cylinder 14 is turned on to move the pull rod 9 downward. The pull rod 9 drives the traction rod 5 downward to compress the second spring 8. During the downward movement, the scraper 7 pops out through the opening 4.3 and moves up and down with the cleaning rod 4 to scrape off the ash on the inner wall of the channel 2.1. The air source enters the kiln body 1 through the ash blowing pipe 10 to blow the catalyst unit 2. At the same time, the air source enters the first airflow channel through the hose 17, and then blows through the second airflow channel, the first air hole and the second air hole 4.4 to the side wall of the channel 2.1 to blow away the ash in the channel 2.1.
[0033] The foregoing has shown and described the basic principles, main features, and advantages of the present invention. Those skilled in the art should understand that the above embodiments do not limit the present invention in any way, and all technical solutions obtained by equivalent substitution or equivalent transformation fall within the protection scope of the present invention.
