Description

Technical Field

[0001] This invention relates to a liquid static emulsification and stirring device, which can push liquids requiring homogenization and emulsification, such as fuel oil, chemicals, and liquid food, to a pre-mixing pipe and a homogenization and emulsification pipe under a predetermined pressure for stirring and homogenization. For example, it can be used to optimize marine fuel oil, emulsify heavy oil, diesel, tank bottom oil, and fuel oil in oil storage tanks, etc. After homogenization and emulsification, it can meet the current COP26 agreement, achieving energy saving, carbon reduction, and carbon neutrality. Background Technology

[0002] Since its adoption, the United Nations Framework Convention on Climate Change (UNFCCC) has set specific reduction targets for six greenhouse gases, including carbon dioxide and chlorofluorocarbons. From the Kyoto Protocol in the early years to the Paris Agreement in recent years, the United Nations has continued to discuss and respond to the climate situation, hoping to jointly curb the trend of global warming.

[0003] As the international community increasingly emphasizes carbon emissions, governments around the world have successively adopted various measures to reduce carbon emissions, such as planning carbon trading markets, developing clean / green energy sources that do not emit pollutants, levying ship fuel taxes, and implementing European carbon border taxes. The private sector is also actively promoting the Renewable Energy Initiative (RE100) and efforts to reduce the carbon footprint of products to zero to achieve carbon neutrality. Related Verified Carbon Standards (VCS) and Clean Development Mechanisms (CDM) have also emerged to manage corporate carbon emissions and formulate carbon reduction regulations, thereby reducing greenhouse gas emissions, controlling environmental risks in operations, and enhancing corporate competitiveness.

[0004] Among the aforementioned measures, the application of the carbon trading market involves setting a cap on greenhouse gas emissions for each market participant, and then allocating these emissions quotas through a market trading mechanism. A carbon credit refers to any tradable quota or license for emitting one ton of carbon dioxide equivalent (CO2e) of greenhouse gases. CO2e is the standard unit for measuring carbon footprint, thereby expressing the impact of different greenhouse gases on warming in a single unit for ease of measurement. Taiwan plans to establish a carbon tax and trading platform in 2023.

[0005] Among various activities that generate greenhouse gases, large boilers or large ships that operate by burning fuel oil are common sources of pollution. Fuel oil has a large molecular weight, high viscosity, and many impurities. After prolonged storage, the water and impurities will relatively separate and settle, resulting in oil-water separation. This makes the composition of the fuel oil uneven and incomplete combustion, which may even damage the boiler. Therefore, fuel oil with uneven composition affects combustion efficiency, thereby producing excessive greenhouse gases, causing air pollution and increased fuel consumption, thus influencing and exacerbating the greenhouse effect.

[0006] Therefore, the homogenization and emulsification of fuel oil before use has been scientifically proven to help complete combustion. For example, UNFCCC method number AM0054 (China Voluntary Emission Reduction Methodology CM-078-V01) explains that emulsified oil technology can improve boiler energy efficiency, achieve carbon emission reduction, and mitigate the global greenhouse effect.

[0007] The inventor's previously invented automatic oil-water mixing device, disclosed in Publication No. TW039506 (same as US4560284 or US4352572, etc.), has proven in actual manufacturing and implementation that the heavy oil is uniformly emulsified after stirring, which can burn impurities evenly. It has advantages such as reducing combustion pollution emissions, saving fuel oil, and extending furnace life. It also eliminates the need to add emulsifiers, avoiding the corrosion damage to rubber parts and furnace body that may be caused by emulsifiers in the oil delivery system, nozzles, solenoid valves, etc.

[0008] In view of the environmental impact of the greenhouse effect, the inventors have developed a liquid static emulsification and stirring device. This device is not only suitable for fuel oil, but also for liquids used in the preparation of plastics such as epoxy resins in the chemical industry, or for liquid food. It enables the liquid to be uniformly stirred and homogenized, reducing the dosage of additional additives that may cause environmental pollution or be harmful to human health, such as food emulsifiers, surfactants, chemical bromides, sulfides, high-temperature resistant and acid and alkali resistant additives, thereby reducing environmental hazards. Summary of the Invention

[0009] The purpose of this invention is to provide a liquid static emulsification and stirring device, which can be applied to various liquids requiring homogenization and emulsification, such as fuel oil, liquids used in the production of plastics from chemicals, or liquid foods. This device reduces the dosage of additives when mixing liquid raw materials with additives. It is particularly useful in optimizing marine fuel oil, emulsified heavy oil, diesel oil, tank bottom oil, and fuel oil in storage tanks. When used as fuel oil, this homogenized emulsified liquid effectively meets the requirements for ship operation safety, emulsified fuel quality, and tank maintenance. It also reduces incomplete combustion, lowers air pollution, and not only complies with the COP26 agreement but can also be converted into measurable carbon emission reduction credits, contributing to the implementation of carbon reduction plans.

[0010] To achieve the above objectives, the present invention provides a liquid static emulsification and stirring device, comprising a premixing tube and a homogenizing emulsification tube. The upstream end of the premixing tube is provided with a liquid inlet and an additive inlet, and the other end is a discharge outlet. The homogenizing emulsification tube has an inlet end connected to the discharge outlet of the premixing tube, and the other end is a downstream outlet end. This device allows liquid raw materials and additives, propelled by a predetermined pressure, to enter the premixing tube and be stirred evenly before entering the homogenizing emulsification tube for homogenization and emulsification, and then being discharged from the downstream outlet end. Its features are as follows:

[0011] The premixing pipe includes an outer pipe with a liquid inlet and an outlet, and an inner pipe that is isolated inside the outer pipe and has an additive inlet at its top.

[0012] The outer pipe fitting has a fixed distance between its inner periphery and the inner pipe fitting's outer periphery, and is provided with a spiral blade to form a spiral turbulence channel.

[0013] The inner tube is hollow and has a plurality of additive through holes that connect from the inside to the outside of the spiral turbulence channel. When the liquid raw material passes through the spiral turbulence channel, the additive can enter the liquid raw material through the plurality of additive through holes and be uniformly stirred to form a mixed liquid, which is then output from the outlet.

[0014] The homogenizing emulsification tube includes an outer cylinder with the aforementioned inlet end and downstream outlet end, and a plurality of emulsifying inner cylinders stacked on the inner edge of the outer cylinder.

[0015] Each emulsifying inner cylinder has a bottom plate and an upper plate spaced apart above the bottom plate, dividing the interior of the emulsifying inner cylinder into an upper cavity and a lower cavity. The bottom plate and the upper plate are each provided with a plurality of finely arranged homogeneous through holes, allowing the mixed liquid to enter the upper cavity and the lower cavity in sequence. After being output through the plurality of homogeneous through holes in the upper plate and the bottom plate to another emulsifying inner cylinder stacked below, it can be further broken down into finer particles by the plurality of stacked emulsifying inner cylinders to form a homogeneous emulsion liquid, which is finally output from the downstream outlet end of the outer cylinder.

[0016] With the above-described structure, this invention allows liquid raw materials and additives to be stirred in a spiral channel within a premixing tube to form a mixed liquid. The mixed liquid is then homogenized and emulsified by multiple layers of emulsifying inner cylinders in a homogenizing emulsification tube before being output. When this invention is used for fuel emulsification, it can reduce incomplete combustion of fuel, decrease pollution, and increase flame temperature, thereby translating into measurable carbon emission reduction credits and contributing to carbon reduction programs.

[0017] The following further describes the implementation schemes of each component, but the implementation schemes of the present invention are not limited thereto:

[0018] In one embodiment of the present invention, a longitudinal inner ring is provided between the bottom plate and the upper plate of the emulsified inner cylinder, so that the lower cavity is divided into a lower outer cavity and a lower inner cavity by the inner ring, and the inner ring is provided with a plurality of finely arranged emulsified through holes so that the lower outer cavity and the lower inner cavity are connected.

[0019] In a further embodiment of the present invention, the plurality of homogeneous through holes of the upper plate are disposed at a position relative to the outer periphery of the inner ring in the lower outer cavity, so that the mixed liquid entering the upper cavity can enter the lower outer cavity from top to bottom through the corresponding homogeneous through holes.

[0020] The multiple emulsification orifices on the inner ring are evenly arranged around it, so that the mixed liquid entering the lower outer cavity can enter the lower inner cavity from the outside to the inside through the multiple emulsification orifices;

[0021] The bottom plate has multiple homogeneous through holes positioned relative to the inner circumference of the inner ring, allowing the mixed liquid entering the lower inner cavity to pass through the corresponding homogeneous through holes into the upper cavity of another emulsified inner cylinder stacked below.

[0022] In one embodiment of the present invention, at least one layer of turbulence plate is provided between the end of the turbulence channel of the premixing pipe and the discharge port, the turbulence plate having a plurality of turbulence holes for the mixed liquid to pass through.

[0023] In one embodiment of the present invention, the plurality of additive through holes of the inner pipe of the premixed pipe are respectively provided at the top, bottom and middle sections of the pipe wall of the inner pipe.

[0024] In the aforementioned embodiments of the present invention, the liquid inlet of the premixed pipe is connected to a liquid raw material storage tank storing liquid raw materials or an emulsion liquid storage tank storing homogenized emulsion liquid, and a control valve controls the switching of the connection between the liquid raw material storage tank and the liquid inlet, or controls the switching of the connection between the emulsion liquid storage tank and the liquid inlet.

[0025] In a further embodiment of the present invention, the downstream outlet end of the homogenizing emulsification pipe is connected to the emulsion storage tank, and the emulsion storage tank is connected to the liquid inlet of the premixing pipe, thereby forming a circulation system that can continuously stir and emulsify the homogenized emulsion, thereby avoiding the sludge deposition or oil-water separation caused by the homogenized emulsion standing.

[0026] In a further embodiment of the invention, the liquid inlet of the premixed pipe is connected to a pump to pump liquid raw materials or homogenized emulsions at a predetermined pressure.

[0027] In a further embodiment of the present invention, the liquid raw material or homogenized emulsion is heated by a heater and then pumped to the liquid inlet.

[0028] In a further embodiment of the invention, the additive is water, water vapor, or bromide.

[0029] Compared to prior art, this invention involves mixing liquid raw materials and additives in a premixing tube via a spiral channel to form a mixed liquid. The mixed liquid is then homogenized and emulsified by multiple layers of emulsifying inner cylinders in a homogenizing emulsifying tube. The number of these inner cylinders, the size and distribution of the homogenizing and emulsifying orifices, can be adjusted by the user based on the liquid composition and state. This invention can be applied to fuel oil, liquids used in the production of plastics from chemicals, or liquid foods to achieve homogenized emulsification or reduce the dosage of additives. For example, it can be used to optimize marine fuel oil, emulsified heavy oil, diesel oil, tank bottom oil, and storage tank fuel oil. When used as boiler fuel oil, this homogenized emulsion effectively meets the requirements for ship operation safety, emulsified fuel quality, and tank maintenance, while reducing incomplete combustion and air pollution. It not only complies with the COP26 agreement but can also be converted into measurable carbon emission reduction credits, aiding in the implementation of carbon reduction plans.

[0030] The improvements of this invention are summarized as follows:

[0031] 1. When used for fuel homogenization and emulsification, this invention can replace the existing technology that only uses a spiral blade in a tank for rotational stirring. The rotational stirring method has drawbacks such as dead zones, high power consumption, and the inability to automate the production line. More importantly, the product quality is unstable.

[0032] 2. The homogenization emulsification of oil products using the present invention can replace the addition of emulsifiers or surfactants in known technologies, avoiding the impact of acidic oil emulsifiers on oil quality and corrosion of pipeline systems and furnaces.

[0033] 3. The system architecture of this invention can be programmed to work with different products to ensure operational safety and consistent quality. When used for fuel oil storage, it prevents the stored oil from stratifying or separating.

[0034] 4. This invention has a wide range of applications and can be applied to various liquids that require homogenization and emulsification, such as fuel oil, liquids used in the preparation of plastics from chemicals, or liquid foods. By simply adjusting the temperature, pressure, or pore size / number, it can meet different product requirements and complete the homogenization and emulsification of various liquids.

[0035] 5. Experiments have shown that the homogeneous emulsified fuel produced by the present invention has excellent energy-saving and carbon-reduction effects, which not only contribute to environmental protection, but also enable the application for CDM carbon neutrality based on the United Nations IPCC methodology.

[0074] The following describes embodiments suitable for this invention, based on the technical means of this invention, in conjunction with the accompanying drawings:

[0075] like Figure 1 As shown, the present invention provides a liquid static emulsification and stirring device for various liquids that require homogenization and emulsification. The device includes a premixing tube 1 that can be driven by a predetermined pressure to stir liquid raw materials and additives to form a mixed liquid, and a homogenization and emulsification tube 2 connected to the premixing tube 1, thereby enabling the mixed liquid to be homogenized and emulsified before being output.

[0076] like Figure 2 , Figure 3 As shown, the premixing pipe 1 includes an outer pipe fitting 10 and an inner pipe fitting 20 isolated inside the outer pipe fitting 10; the outer pipe fitting 10 has a liquid inlet 11 at the upstream end relative to the premixing pipe 1 and an outlet 12 at the other end.

[0077] The inner tube 20 is hollow, with an additive inlet 21 at its top relative to the upstream end of the premixing pipe 1. A fixed distance exists between the outer periphery of the inner tube 20 and the inner periphery of the outer tube 10, and a spiraling blade forms a spiral turbulence channel 13. At least one layer of turbulence discs 14 is provided between the end of the turbulence channel 13 and the outlet 12 of the outer tube 10. Each turbulence disc 14 has a plurality of turbulence holes 15, such as… Figure 3 As shown, the plurality of flow-through holes 15 are inclined.

[0078] The inner tube 20 is surrounded by a plurality of additive through holes 22, which are connected from the inside to the outside to the spiral turbulence channel 13. This allows the additives to enter the liquid raw material through the plurality of additive through holes 22 and be uniformly stirred. After passing through the turbulence holes 15 of the plurality of turbulence plates 14, the mixed liquid is formed and output from the outlet 12.

[0079] During implementation, the additive is water, water vapor, or bromide, but the addition of an emulsifier is also possible. The dosage can be automatically controlled by a solenoid valve, flow sensor, or similar means. Furthermore, the plurality of additive through-holes 22 can cover the entire wall of the inner pipe fitting 20, or... Figure 2 , Figure 3 As shown, they are respectively installed at the top, bottom and middle sections of the inner pipe fitting 20.

[0080] like Figure 1 , Figure 4-6 As shown, the homogenizing emulsification tube 2 includes an outer cylinder 30 and a plurality of emulsifying inner cylinders 40 stacked on the inner edge of the outer cylinder 30. The outer cylinder 30 has an inlet end 31 connected to the outlet 12 of the premixing tube 1, and the other end is a downstream outlet end 32.

[0081] Each emulsifying inner cylinder 40 has a bottom plate 41 and an upper plate 42 arranged at intervals above the bottom plate 41, so that the interior of the emulsifying inner cylinder 40 is divided into an upper cavity 43 and a lower cavity 44. A longitudinal inner ring 45 is provided between the bottom plate 41 and the upper plate 42, so that the lower cavity 44 is divided into a lower outer cavity 441 and a lower inner cavity 442 by the inner ring 45.

[0082] The bottom plate 41 and the upper plate 42 are respectively provided with a plurality of closely arranged homogeneous through holes 46. The plurality of homogeneous through holes 46 of the upper plate 42 are located at the lower outer cavity 441 relative to the outer periphery of the inner ring 45, so that the mixed liquid entering the upper cavity 43 can enter the lower outer cavity 441 from top to bottom through the corresponding homogeneous through holes 46.

[0083] The inner ring 45 is surrounded by a plurality of uniformly and densely arranged emulsifying through holes 47, which connect the lower outer cavity 441 and the lower inner cavity 442, so that the mixed liquid entering the lower outer cavity 441 can enter the lower inner cavity 442 from the outside to the inside through the plurality of emulsifying through holes 47.

[0084] The base plate 41 has a plurality of homogeneous through holes 46 disposed relative to the inner circumference of the inner ring 45, allowing the mixed liquid entering the lower inner cavity 442 to enter the upper cavity 43 of another emulsified inner cylinder 40 stacked below through the corresponding homogeneous through holes 46. In practice, a waterproof gasket is provided between two adjacent emulsified inner cylinders 40 to prevent liquid leakage.

[0085] By means of the stacked emulsifying inner cylinder 40 structure, the mixed liquid enters the emulsifying inner cylinder 40 from the inlet end 31 of the outer cylinder 30, and then sequentially enters the upper cavity 43, the lower outer cavity 441 and the lower inner cavity 442 from top to bottom and from outside to inside. It is then output to another emulsifying inner cylinder 40 stacked below through the plurality of homogenizing through holes 46 of the upper plate 42 and the bottom plate 41 and the plurality of emulsifying through holes 47 of the inner ring 45, and is gradually decomposed into finer particles to form a homogenized emulsion liquid. Finally, it is output from the downstream outlet end 32 of the outer cylinder 30, thus achieving the purpose of homogenization emulsification.

[0086] Specifically, the number of layers in the emulsifying inner cylinder 40, the size and distribution of the plurality of homogenizing through-holes 46 and emulsifying through-holes 47 can be adjusted according to the specific gravity, viscosity, and product requirements of different liquid components. This allows for the production of a product with uniform quality simply by adjusting the temperature, pressure, and pore size / number, ensuring uniform mixing and homogeneous emulsification when additives or multiple liquids are added. For example, assuming a 366mm... 2 Based on the base area A, when the liquid static emulsification stirring device emulsifies liquids such as fuel oil, heavy oil, and diesel, the number of layers, pore size, and distribution quantity of its emulsification inner cylinder 40 are shown in Tables 1, 2, and 3, respectively:

[0087] [Table 1] Emulsified fuel oil

[0088]

[0089] [Table 2] Emulsified Heavy Oil

[0090]

[0091]

[0092] [Table 3] Emulsified Diesel

[0093]

[0094] In the above structure, the pore sizes of the homogenizing through-holes 46 and 47 in the emulsifying inner cylinder 40 gradually decrease from top to bottom, causing the mixed liquid to gradually decompose into finer particles. For example, the particle size of the homogenized emulsified heavy oil is 2-8 μm, and the particle size of the homogenized emulsified diesel is 0.2-0.9 μm. This increases the contact area between the particles in various liquids and air, enabling them to approach a state of complete combustion in a short time, achieving the best combustion effect and reducing fuel consumption, carbon deposits, and sludge deposition, thus reducing pollution emissions. For example, reducing the fuel consumption of 1 ton of heavy oil results in a relative reduction of 3.1 tons of carbon dioxide equivalent (CO2e), which can be converted into a measurable carbon emission reduction credit, helping to implement carbon emission reduction plans.

[0095] This invention can uniformly mix various liquid raw materials, or uniformly mix additives and liquid raw materials, and maintain a homogeneous emulsion state after mixing. For example, when epoxy resin for PCB needs to be mixed with bromide as a flame retardant, or when liquid raw materials for plastic preparation need to be mixed with acid and alkali resistant and high temperature resistant additives, homogeneous emulsification can be achieved by using a liquid static emulsification stirring device, avoiding uneven composition and increased raw material consumption, and also enabling additives to achieve their original effects with the minimum dosage, thus reducing the amount of additives used.

[0096] In addition, such as Figure 1 As shown, the liquid inlet 11 of the premixing pipe 1 is connected to a liquid raw material storage tank 100 that stores liquid raw materials or an emulsion liquid storage tank 200 that stores homogenized emulsion liquid, and a control valve 300 controls the switching of the connection between the liquid raw material storage tank 100 and the liquid inlet 11, or controls the switching of the connection between the emulsion liquid storage tank 200 and the liquid inlet 11.

[0097] When the downstream outlet 32 ​​of the homogenizing emulsification pipe 2 is connected to the emulsion storage tank 200, the emulsion storage tank 200 and the liquid inlet 11 are connected to form a circulation system, thereby continuously stirring and emulsifying the homogenized emulsion, thus avoiding sludge deposition or oil-water separation caused by prolonged standing of the homogenized emulsion, which is particularly suitable for fuel oil of ocean-going vessels.

[0098] For example, when the present invention is installed inside a ship, the emulsion storage tank 200 can be a boiler auxiliary oil tank, so that the homogeneous emulsion can be transported to the boiler for combustion, or transported to a liquid static emulsion stirring device for further stirring and emulsification. This avoids the formation of sludge or oil-water separation after the homogeneous emulsion has been stored for a long time, resulting in uneven liquid composition. It also prevents the stored fuel oil from stratifying and separating, thus improving the problems of uneven stirring, dead zones, high power consumption, and unsuitability for automation in ship fuel oil tanks.

[0099] In addition, bottom oil in ship storage tanks, bottom oil in fuel oil tanks, waste engine oil, etc., contain water, non-combustible sludge, or oil containing saturated water. These bottom oils can be homogenized and emulsified by adding an appropriate proportion of fuel oil, and can be completely burned as another clean energy source, thus obtaining measurable carbon emission reduction credits.

[0100] In addition, the liquid inlet 11 of the premixed pipe 1 is connected to a pump 400 and a heater 500, so that the liquid raw material or homogenized emulsion can be heated by the heater 500, usually heated to above 70°C, and then pumped to the liquid inlet 11 by the pump 400.

[0101] Figure 1In this process, the additive inlet 21 is connected to a pump 400B and a heater 500B, so that the additive can be heated by the heater 500B and then pumped to the additive inlet 21 by the pump 400B. In practice, when the additive is water or bromide, it is usually heated to above 50°C; while when the additive is water vapor, heating is not required, and the pressure pumped to the homogenizing emulsification tube 2 can be reduced. The multiple emulsification inner cylinders 40 of the homogenizing emulsification tube 2 (see also...) Figure 4 The number of ( ) can also be reduced relatively.

[0102] It is worth mentioning that this invention can be applied to various liquids requiring homogeneous emulsification, such as fuel oil, liquids used in the production of plastics from chemicals, or liquid foods, enabling a reduction in the dosage of additives when mixing liquid raw materials with additives. In particular, it is applicable to optimizing marine fuel oil, emulsified heavy oil, diesel oil, tank bottom oil, and storage tank fuel oil, ensuring that these homogeneous emulsified liquids, when used as fuel oil, effectively meet the requirements of ship operation safety, emulsified fuel quality, and tank maintenance. It also reduces incomplete combustion, lowers air pollution, and not only complies with the COP26 agreement but can also be further converted into measurable carbon emission reduction credits, contributing to the implementation of carbon reduction plans.

[0103] The above descriptions and accompanying drawings are merely illustrative examples of preferred embodiments of the present invention and are not intended to limit the scope of protection of the present invention; that is, anything similar or identical to the purpose, structure, device, or features of the present invention should fall within the scope of protection of the present invention.
