Description
Technical Field
[0001] This invention belongs to the field of waste gas de-powdering technology, specifically relating to a waste gas de-powdering device for polyethylene production and its usage method. Background Technology
[0002] Polyethylene, or PE for short, is a thermoplastic resin produced by the polymerization of ethylene. The production of polyethylene generates waste gas, which needs to be discharged. However, this waste gas contains dust containing polyethylene powder or other additives, and direct emission would pollute the air. Therefore, dust removal treatment is necessary to ensure the waste gas meets emission standards. Existing dust removal devices generally use pulse dust collectors, which use filter bags to intercept dust in the waste gas. As dust accumulates on the surface of the filter bags, the dust collection resistance of the dust collector increases, and the pressure inside the dust removal chamber increases. When the pressure reaches a certain value, it is detected by a pressure sensor, which then transmits a signal to the pulse valve. When the pulse valve opens, high-pressure gas pulses through the filter bags, causing the dust on the bags to fall into the dust hopper of the pulse dust collector. However, when the dust-laden exhaust gas enters the dust collector, some of it adheres to the partition separating the clean air chamber and the dust removal chamber. Over time, as the dust thickness increases, the space in the dust removal chamber becomes smaller, leading to increased suction resistance of the fan, frequent opening of the pulse valve, excessive consumption of pulse gas, and waste of resources. Therefore, existing technology involves opening manholes in the outer shell of the dust collector, requiring workers to periodically enter and clean it. This is labor-intensive and requires shutting down the dust collector, affecting production efficiency. Summary of the Invention
[0003] To address the shortcomings of the existing technology, this invention provides a polyethylene production waste gas de-powdering device, the technical solution of which includes:
[0004] The casing has a dust hopper at its bottom, into which dust falling from the casing via pulse jets collects. An exhaust pipe with an electric valve on one side controls its operation. A fan with an exhaust duct at the top draws out exhaust gas, which is monitored by an electronic pressure gauge. The casing is internally divided into a clean air chamber and a dust removal chamber by a partition. The exhaust duct connects to the clean air chamber. A pulse jet device on one side of the casing opens or closes when it receives a signal from the electronic pressure gauge. One end of the pulse device passes through the clean air chamber, and several bag assemblies are arranged in the powder removal chamber. The bag assemblies are connected to the partition plate, and the port of the pulse device is directly opposite the bag assembly. The characteristic is that an air-inflating pipe is arranged inside the bag assembly, and an air-inflating chamber is arranged at the bottom of the air-inflating pipe. A sealing element is arranged in the air-inflating chamber. The gas of the pulse device first enters the air-inflating pipe, pushes open the sealing element, and then enters the air-inflating chamber. The bag assembly and the air-inflating chamber are connected by a fixed pipe. A movable element is arranged inside the fixed pipe and is movably connected to the sealing element. A knocking element is arranged outside the bag assembly, and one end of the knocking element is movably connected to the movable element.
[0005] Furthermore, the pulse device includes a gas tank, a pulse valve is provided on the gas tank, a pulse tube is provided on the pulse valve, the pulse tube extends into the clean air chamber, and a nozzle is provided at the bottom of the pulse tube. When the pulse valve is opened, the high-pressure gas in the gas tank enters the pulse tube. A support plate is provided on one side of the housing, and the gas tank is provided on the support plate.
[0006] Furthermore, the bag assembly includes a frame and a bag mounted on the frame. The frame is connected to a partition and is used to internally support and fix the bag. The upper part of the frame is open and the bottom is closed.
[0007] Furthermore, the upper end of the keel frame is provided with an external thread, and the partition plate is provided with an internal threaded opening. The keel frame is threadedly connected to the internal threaded opening, which facilitates the disassembly of the keel frame from the partition plate.
[0008] Furthermore, the keel frame is provided with a hoop groove, and the cloth bag is fixed to the hoop groove by the hoop ring. Opening the hoop groove makes it easy to remove the cloth bag from the keel frame.
[0009] Furthermore, the sealing element includes a sealing plate disposed inside the air inlet pipe, a lifting rod disposed at the bottom of the sealing plate, a set of fixed rods disposed along the circumferential direction on the lifting rod, an upper inclined block disposed on the fixed rod, a disc disposed inside the air inlet pipe, the disc being connected to the air inlet pipe by the fixed plate, the lifting rod passing through the disc, and a first spring disposed outside the lifting rod located between the fixed rod and the disc. When there is no pulse, the sealing plate seals the inside of the air inlet pipe, and the lifting rod moves up and down on the disc.
[0010] Furthermore, the movable component includes a piston plate disposed inside a fixed tube. A first push rod is disposed on one side of the piston plate and a second push rod is disposed on the other side. When the first push rod moves, it drives the piston plate and the second push rod to move. A lower inclined block is disposed on the second push rod, and the lower inclined block is connected to the upper inclined block. A second spring is disposed on the first push rod, and one end of the first push rod extends to the outside of the bag assembly. A ramp is disposed on the first push rod.
[0011] Furthermore, the striking element includes a flat plate disposed on the bag assembly, a striking rod passing through the flat plate, a striking ball disposed on the striking rod, a limiting plate disposed on the striking rod, a third spring disposed on the outside of the striking rod between the flat plate and the limiting plate, a roller disposed at the end of the striking rod, the roller being movably connected to the ramp, the movement of the ramp pushing the roller to move up or down, the rolling causing the striking rod and the striking ball to move up and down.
[0012] Furthermore, a dust discharge pipe is provided at the bottom of the ash hopper, and an electric valve is installed on the dust discharge pipe. When the electric valve is opened, the dust in the ash hopper is discharged through the dust discharge pipe.
[0013] The usage method includes the following steps:
[0014] Step 1: Open the electric valve and the fan. Under negative pressure, the dust-laden exhaust gas in the exhaust pipe enters the dust removal chamber.
[0015] Step 2: The dust-laden exhaust gas in the dust removal chamber passes through each bag filter assembly. The dust is trapped on the outer surface of the bag filter assembly, and the clean exhaust gas enters the inside of the bag filter assembly.
[0016] Step 3: The clean exhaust gas inside the bag filter assembly enters the clean air chamber through the upper part of the bag filter assembly, and the clean gas in the clean air chamber is drawn out and discharged by the fan through the exhaust pipe.
[0017] Step 4: When the dust on the outer surface of the bag assembly thickens and blocks the bag assembly, the suction resistance of the fan increases and the pressure difference changes to the set value, which is measured by the electronic pressure gauge. The electronic pressure gauge transmits the signal to the fan, electric valve 1 and pulse device. The fan and electric valve 1 close, and the pulse device opens.
[0018] Step 5: The pulse device releases high-pressure gas into the air-filling pipe. Under the high-pressure impact, the seal opens and moves downward, allowing gas to enter the air-filling chamber. The seal pushes the moving part to move outward, and the moving part then pushes the striking part upward, causing the striking part to strike the partition, causing the dust on the partition to fall off.
[0019] Compared with the prior art, the present invention has the following advantages: by using the high-pressure gas during each pulse, the sealing component pushes the moving component, the moving component pushes the striking component, and the striking component moves upward to strike the partition, causing the dust on the partition to be shaken off. The present invention does not require manual periodic cleaning and can realize the automatic cleaning of dust on the partition. By shaking off the dust with each strike, the accumulation of dust on the partition is avoided. Attached Figure Description
