Description

Technical Field

[0001] This invention relates to the field of humic acid production technology, and in particular to a process for producing mineral-derived nitrohumic acid. Background Technology

[0002] Mineral-derived nitrohumic acid is produced by the oxidation and nitration of lignite with nitric acid. This process introduces nitro groups and increases the number of active functional groups, particularly the tautomerism of the p-nitrophenol structure, which leads to the formation of quinone structures. This significantly enhances the chemical and biological activity of humic acid. The activity of nitrohumic acid is far superior to that of ordinary humic acid.

[0003] The humic acid production equipment disclosed in announcement number CN113145055A provides a device for producing humic acid, which further includes a flue gas treatment system, a hot water circulation system, a cold water circulation system, and a dust removal system, all connected to a nitric acid preparation system. The nitric acid preparation system includes a pusher, an acid storage tank, a mixing tank, and an activation reactor. The mixing tank is also connected to a waste acid tank. There are two pushers, two acid storage tanks, two mixing tanks, and two activation reactors. The humic acid production equipment described in this invention not only fulfills the basic function of humic acid production but also increases the stirring range and mixing volume, ensuring constant reaction conditions, improving the recovery rate of nitric acid, and solving problems such as insufficient humic acid activity or decomposition of effective components, high acid content in the product, fluctuating water content, and low overall quality.

[0004] However, the above solution has the following drawbacks:

[0005] 1. The raw materials entering the reactor cannot be accurately measured, and the ratio of coal acid to nitric acid is not constant, resulting in unstable product quality.

[0006] 2. The reaction process is a single reaction, and it cannot be determined whether all raw materials react with nitric acid, so the product quality is uncontrollable;

[0007] 3. The reactor is horizontal, and dead corners can easily exist in the corners during the stirring process, resulting in incomplete product reaction. Summary of the Invention

[0045] like Figure 1-7 As shown, an embodiment of the present invention provides a process for producing mineral-derived nitrohumic acid, including a raw material silo 1, an acid mixing tank 2, a quantitative conveyor 3, a vertical reactor 4, a vibrating screen 5, a temporary storage silo 6, a Raymond mill 7, and a collector 8. The production process includes the following steps.

[0046] Step 1: The quantitative conveyor 3 transports the raw coal in the raw material silo 1 to the vertical reactor 4. At the same time, the acid pump 9 sprays the prepared nitric acid in the acid tank 2 onto the raw material in the vertical reactor 4 to react with it, so that the material rolls and stirs up and down in the vertical reactor 4 to ensure that a large amount of raw material is mixed evenly and activated in a short time.

[0047] Step 2: The activated product enters the vibrating screen 5 through the connecting pipe from the lower outlet of the vertical reactor 4 for screening. The activated material enters the material storage bin 6 through the oversize outlet 10 of the vibrating screen 5, while the unactivated material returns to the raw material bin 1 through the undersize outlet 11 of the vibrating screen 5.

[0048] Step 3: Next, the activated material enters Raymond mill 7, where physical grinding further activates the product and grinds it to the required mesh size. The qualified product enters the collector 8 and is finally packaged through material outlet 12.

[0049] In this embodiment, in step one, the amount and speed of nitric acid sprayed are adjustable by the acid mixing pump 9, depending on the source of the raw materials and the product quality requirements.

[0050] In this embodiment, the acid mixing tank 2 and the vertical reactor 4 are connected to the waste gas treatment system 13. A small amount of flue gas is generated during the reaction process in the vertical reactor 4. The flue gas and a small amount of nitric acid volatiles in the acid mixing tank 2 are treated by the waste gas treatment system 13.

[0051] In this embodiment, the waste gas treatment system 13 is selected from the waste gas absorption system in the dry production of mineral-derived nitrohumic acid.

[0052] In this embodiment, a dust collector 14 is connected to the Raymond mill 7 and the material collector 8. A conveying pump 15 is installed between the dust collector 14 and the material collector 8. A dust outlet 16 is provided on the dust collector 14.

[0053] like Figure 1 and Figure 3 As shown, in this embodiment, the vertical reactor 4 includes a stirring tank 17. A hollow shaft 18 is provided inside the stirring tank 17. A mounting plate 19 is fixedly connected to the bottom end of the hollow shaft 18. Rotating rods 20 parallel to the inner wall of the stirring tank 17 are rotatably connected to the left and right sides of the mounting plate 19 via bearings. Rollers 21 are fixedly connected to the top end of the rotating rods 20 and contact the inner wall of the stirring tank 17. A scraping assembly 22 is provided at the bottom end of the rotating rods 20. The top end of the hollow shaft 18 penetrates the upper surface of the stirring tank 17. The hollow shaft 18 is rotatably connected to the stirring tank 17 via bearings. A rotating shaft 23 is rotatably connected inside the hollow shaft 18 via bearings. A spiral stirrer 24 is fixedly connected to the outer surface of the bottom end of the rotating shaft 23. A drive assembly 25 is provided at the top end of the hollow shaft 18 and the rotating shaft 23. A nitric acid spraying assembly 26 is installed at the top inner part of the stirring tank 17.

[0054] This configuration allows the acid pump 9 to spray the prepared nitric acid from the acid tank 2 onto the raw materials in the vertical reactor 4 for reaction. Simultaneously, the drive assembly 25 drives the rotating shaft 23 and the hollow shaft 18 to rotate. During the rotation of the rotating shaft 23, the spiral stirrer 24 can be rotated. The raw materials and nitric acid are lifted from the bottom and center to the top of the vertical reactor 4 by the rotation speed of the spiral stirrer 24, and then the material is scattered, allowing the material to tumble and mix up and down in the mixing tank 17. During the rotation of the hollow shaft 18, the scraping assembly 22 can scrape off the mixture adhering to the inner wall of the mixing tank 17, making it fully mixed and improving the mixing efficiency of the vertical reactor 4.

[0055] like Figure 2 and Figure 3 As shown, in this embodiment, the mixing tank 17 has a conical structure. The bottom end of the mixing tank 17 is fixedly connected to the discharge pipe 1701, and the left and right sides of the upper surface of the mixing tank 17 are respectively fixedly connected to the feed pipe 1702 and the exhaust pipe 1703.

[0056] In this configuration, the quantitative conveyor 3 transports the raw coal in the raw material silo 1 to the vertical reactor 4 through the feed pipe 1702. The activated product then enters the vibrating screen 5 through the discharge pipe 1701 of the vertical reactor 4 and the connecting pipe for screening.

[0057] like Figure 3 , Figure 6 and Figure 7 As shown, in this embodiment, the scraping assembly 22 includes a fixed box 2201 fixedly connected to the bottom of the rotating rod 20. A rectangular slider 2202 is slidably connected inside the fixed box 2201. Fixed rods 2203 are fixedly connected to both sides of the rectangular slider 2202. One end of the fixed rod 2203 away from the rectangular slider 2202 passes through the fixed box 2201 and is fixedly connected to a fixed plate 2204. The fixed rod 2203 is slidably connected to the fixed box 2201. A spring 2205 is sleeved on the outer surface of the fixed rod 2203 inside the fixed box 2201. A scraper 2206 is fixedly connected to one side of the fixed plate 2204. The scraper 2206 is in contact with the inner wall of the mixing tank 17.

[0058] The spring 2205 is set in such a way that the scraper 2206 is pressed tightly against the inner wall of the mixing tank 17. During the rolling process, the roller 21 can drive the rotating rod 20, the fixed box 2201, the fixed rod 2203, the fixed plate 2204 and the scraper 2206 to rotate. During the rotation, the scraper 2206 scrapes off the material thrown against the inner wall of the mixing tank 17.

[0059] like Figure 3 and Figure 5 As shown, in this embodiment, the drive assembly 25 includes a housing 2501 fixedly connected to the upper surface of the mixing tank 17. A geared motor 2502 is fixedly connected to the upper surface of the housing 2501. The output end of the geared motor 2502 is located inside the mixing tank 17 and is fixedly connected to a first gear 2503 and a second gear 2504. The diameter of the first gear 2503 is larger than that of the second gear 2504. The top ends of the rotating shaft 23 and the hollow shaft 18 are both located inside the housing 2501 and are fixedly connected to a third gear 2505 and a fourth gear 2506, respectively. The third gear 2505 and the fourth gear 2506 are respectively meshed with the first gear 2503 and the second gear 2504.

[0060] This configuration allows the starting gear motor 2502 to drive the first gear 2503 and the second gear 2504 to rotate. During rotation, the first gear 2503 and the second gear 2504 cooperate with the third gear 2505 and the fourth gear 2506 respectively to drive the rotating shaft 23 and the hollow shaft 18 to rotate.

[0061] like Figure 3 and Figure 4 As shown, in this embodiment, the nitric acid spraying assembly 26 includes a fixed pipe 2601 fixedly connected to the inside of the top of the mixing tank 17. Multiple spray nozzles 2602 are installed on the lower surface of the right end of the fixed pipe 2601. The left end of the fixed pipe 2601 is connected to the acid pump 9. A control box 2603 is installed on the fixed pipe 2601. A partition 2604 is fixedly connected inside the control box 2603. A through hole 2605 is opened on the partition 2604. A sealing block 2606 is provided on the left side of the through hole 2605. A sliding rod 2607 is fixedly connected to the right side of the sealing block 2606. The right end of the sliding rod 2607 passes through the control box 2603 and is fixedly connected to an arc-shaped block 2608. A second spring 2609 is sleeved on the outer surface of the sliding rod 2607. The sliding rod 2607 is slidably connected to the control box 2603.

[0062] This setup involves installing a nitric acid spraying assembly 26 above the vertical reactor 4, which sprays the prepared nitric acid from the acid mixing tank 2 onto the raw materials in the vertical reactor 4 via the acid mixing pump 9 to react with them.

[0063] The technical solution provided by this invention involves placing raw coal in a raw material silo 1 during production. A quantitative conveyor 3 transports the raw coal from the silo 1 to a vertical reactor 4. A nitric acid spraying assembly 26 is installed above the vertical reactor 4. Acid pump 9 sprays the prepared nitric acid from the acid mixing tank 2 onto the raw materials in the vertical reactor 4 to react with the nitric acid. Simultaneously, a reduction motor 2502 drives the first gear 2503 and the second gear 2504 to rotate. During rotation, the first gear 2503 and the second gear 2504 engage with the third gear 2505 and the fourth gear 2506 respectively, driving the rotating shaft 23 and the hollow shaft 18 to rotate. The rotating shaft 23, in turn, drives the spiral stirrer 24 to rotate. The raw materials and nitric acid are then stirred in the vertical reactor 4 by the rotational speed of the spiral stirrer 24, which lifts the raw materials from the bottom to the center. At the top, the material is then thrown out, causing it to tumble and mix inside the mixing tank 17. Since the material sprayed at the beginning of the mixing process is not fully wetted, the mixture will be continuously thrown against the inner wall of the mixing tank 17 and accumulate. At this time, the hollow shaft 18 can drive the mounting plate 19, the rotating rod 20 and the roller 21 to rotate during the rotation. The roller 21 rolls along the inner wall of the mixing tank 17 during the rotation. During the rolling process, the roller 21 can drive the rotating rod 20, the fixed box 2201, the fixed rod 2203, the fixed plate 2204 and the scraper 2206 to rotate. During the rotation, the scraper 2206 scrapes off the material thrown against the inner wall of the mixing tank 17. Thus, by setting up the scraper assembly 22 with revolution and rotation, the mixture adhering to the inner wall of the mixing tank 17 is scraped off, making it fully mixed and uniform, thus improving the mixing efficiency of the vertical reactor 4.

[0064] At the same time, the roller 21 rotates to the left and squeezes the arc block 2608. After being squeezed, the arc block 2608 drives the slide rod 2607 and the sealing block 2606 to move to the left and compress the second spring 1609. At this time, the through hole 2605 is exposed, making the left and right sides of the fixed tube 2601 connected. The nitric acid prepared in the acid tank 2 is sprayed out from the spray nozzle 2602 along the fixed tube 2601. After the stirring stops, the sealing block 2606 blocks the through hole 2605 by the restoring force of the second spring 1609, thereby preventing the nitric acid from spraying out and realizing the automatic spraying of nitric acid to avoid waste.

[0065] The uniformly mixed materials are activated in the vertical reactor 4. The activated product enters the vibrating screen 5 through the discharge pipe 1701 of the vertical reactor 4 and the connecting pipe for screening. Because the raw materials form agglomerates after the activation reaction with nitric acid, the activated material enters the material storage bin 6 through the oversize outlet 10 of the vibrating screen 5. The unactivated material returns to the raw material bin 1 through the undersize outlet 11 of the vibrating screen 5. Then, the fully activated material enters the Raymond mill 7, where physical grinding further activates the product and grinds it to the required mesh size. The qualified product enters the collector 8 and is finally packaged through the material outlet 12 on the collector 8.

[0066] During the reaction process in the vertical reactor 4, a small amount of flue gas is generated. The flue gas is treated by the waste gas treatment system 13. A small amount of nitric acid volatiles in the acid mixing tank 2 also enter the waste gas treatment system 13 for treatment. The waste gas treatment system 13 can be selected from the waste gas absorption system for the dry production of mineral-derived nitrohumic acid, which is announced in CN216457986U. Dust is generated during the use of Raymond mill 7 and collector 8. The dust is treated by dust collector 14. The collected dust is discharged from dust outlet 16 for further treatment.

The production process includes the following steps. Step 1: The quantitative conveyor transports the raw coal from the raw material silo to the vertical reactor. At the same time, the acid pump sprays the prepared nitric acid from the acid mixing tank onto the raw material in the vertical reactor to react with it. The material is tumbled and stirred inside the vertical reactor to ensure that a large amount of raw material is mixed evenly and activated in a short time. Step 2: The activated product enters the vibrating screen through the connecting pipe from the lower outlet of the vertical reactor for screening. The activated material enters the material storage bin through the oversize outlet of the vibrating screen, and the unactivated material is returned to the raw material bin through the undersize outlet of the vibrating screen. Step 3: Next, the activated material enters the Raymond mill, where physical grinding further activates the product and grinds it to the required mesh size. The finished product then enters the collector and is finally packaged from the material outlet. The vertical reactor includes a stirring tank, inside which is a hollow shaft.
