Description

Technical Field

[0001] This application relates to the field of aquaculture technology, and more specifically, to a deodorization, temperature control, and dehumidification system for aquaculture workshops with high humidity air environments. Background Technology

[0002] Aquaculture projects that feed on organic waste, such as black soldier fly larvae, fly larvae, and American cockroaches, are gradually emerging. These projects not only process large amounts of waste but also bring certain economic benefits.

[0003] During the aquaculture process, the moisture in the high-moisture-content organic waste diffuses into the aquaculture workshop through the animals' respiration, metabolism, and evaporation. This, along with the metabolic processes and the action of microorganisms, produces large amounts of ammonia and other foul-smelling gases. If the air environment in the aquaculture workshop is not controlled in a timely manner, it will affect the activity of the animals, slowing their growth and even causing death. Direct discharge not only wastes energy but also harms the atmospheric environment.

[0004] Application number CN202221485918.6 describes a temperature control and dehumidification system for a black soldier fly breeding workshop. This system maintains the temperature and humidity balance in the breeding workshop through simple condensation and heating, but it does not recover energy from the exhaust gas, which increases the power consumption and thus affects the overall economic benefits.

[0005] Application number CN202111213117.4 describes a temperature control and dehumidification system for a black soldier fly breeding workshop. This system recovers energy through a fresh air exchanger, and then the temperature and humidity are regulated by the indoor unit of an air conditioner. According to the control logic, when the outside temperature is low, the fresh air undergoes a process of heating, condensing, dehumidifying, and reheating, resulting in significant energy waste.

[0006] Since aquaculture projects have relatively low profit margins, reducing operating costs is crucial for profitability. Furthermore, existing dehumidification and temperature control systems are not integrated with deodorization systems, further increasing operating costs and hindering the widespread adoption of these systems in the aquaculture industry.

[0007] Therefore, a deodorization, temperature control, and dehumidification system for aquaculture workshops with high humidity air environment is provided. Summary of the Invention

[0028] Reference Figure 1 A deodorization, temperature control, and dehumidification system for a high-humidity aquaculture workshop includes: an aquaculture workshop G, a deodorization system, an energy recovery system, a fresh air system, and a refrigeration unit B. The aquaculture workshop G includes an exhaust gas collection duct G1 and a fresh air duct G2. The deodorization system includes: an ammonia absorption tower A1, an odor oxidation tower A2, a deodorization fan F1, an exhaust stack D, and a first connecting duct H1. The ammonia absorption tower A1, the odor oxidation tower A2, the deodorization fan F1, and the exhaust stack D are sequentially connected via the first connecting duct H1.

[0029] The fresh air system includes: a fresh air filter C, a primary dehumidifier heat exchanger E2, a secondary dehumidifier heat exchanger E3, a fresh air fan F2, a first air valve V1, a second air valve V2, a third air valve V3, a fourth air valve V4, a fifth air valve V5, a sixth air valve V6, a seventh air valve V7, and a third connecting duct H3. The fresh air filter C, the primary dehumidifier heat exchanger E2, the secondary dehumidifier heat exchanger E3, and the fresh air fan F2 are connected via the third connecting duct H3. Both the primary and secondary dehumidifier heat exchangers E2 and E3 are dehumidifier heat exchangers; the distinction between primary and secondary dehumidifier heat exchangers lies solely in their designation.

[0030] The energy recovery system includes: a heat exchanger E1, a second connecting duct H2, and a condensate pump P. An atomizing nozzle is installed between the exhaust gas collection duct G1 and the second connecting duct H2. The inlet pipe of the condensate pump P is connected to the drain outlet of the secondary dehumidification heat exchanger E3, and the outlet pipe of the condensate pump P is connected to the atomizing nozzle. The heat exchanger and the ammonia absorption tower A1 are connected via the second connecting duct H2.

[0031] Refrigeration unit B includes a low-temperature water pipe B1. Refrigeration unit B is connected to the secondary dehumidification heat exchanger E3 via the low-temperature water pipe B1. Refrigeration unit B is used to transport low-temperature water to the secondary dehumidification heat exchanger E3; the temperature of the low-temperature water is 0-15℃. The outlet duct of the fresh air filter C and the outlet duct of the deodorizing fan F1 are connected via a third connecting duct H3. The third connecting duct H3 is equipped with a control valve, and its ventilation volume is 50% to 95% of the ventilation volume of the fresh air duct G2. The outlet duct of the fresh air fan F2 delivers air to the breeding workshop G via the fresh air duct G2.

[0032] The exhaust gas in the workshop is collected by the collection duct and then sequentially enters the heat exchanger E1, ammonia absorption tower A1, and odor oxidation tower A2. After treatment, it is sent to the exhaust stack D by the deodorization fan F1 for discharge. The deodorization system and the fresh air fan F2 operate continuously to maintain stable temperature, humidity, and odor concentration in the breeding workshop G.

[0033] 1) When the moisture content of the outside gas is greater than the moisture content of the gas at the outlet of the deodorizing fan F1, open the second air valve V2, the third air valve V3, the fifth air valve V5, and the seventh air valve V7, and close the first air valve V1, the fourth air valve V4, and the sixth air valve V6. Start the refrigeration unit B and the condensate pump P. A portion of the air treated by the deodorizing system is mixed with fresh air and enters the heat exchanger E1 for cooling. Then it enters the first-stage dehumidifying heat exchanger E2 for pre-cooling and dehumidification, and the second-stage dehumidifying heat exchanger E3 for condensation and dehumidification. The dehumidified low-temperature gas is then heated by the first-stage dehumidifying heat exchanger E2 and sent to the breeding workshop. The condensate pump P sends the low-temperature water generated by the second-stage dehumidifying heat exchanger E3 into the inlet air duct of the heat exchanger E1 to humidify and cool the air in the duct, thereby increasing the heat transfer power of the heat exchanger E3.

[0034] 2) When the moisture content of the outside gas is less than or equal to the moisture content of the gas exiting the deodorizing fan F1, and the difference in moisture content is no more than 5-20 g / m³, and the outside temperature is greater than the dew point temperature of the exhaust gas discharged from the workshop, open the second air valve V2, the third air valve V3, and the fifth air valve V5, close the first air valve V1, the fourth air valve V4, the sixth air valve V6, and the seventh air valve V7, and start the refrigeration unit B and the condensate pump P; after the fresh air enters the heat exchanger E1 to cool down, it enters the first-stage dehumidifying heat exchanger E2 and the second-stage dehumidifying heat exchanger E3 for condensation and dehumidification. The dehumidified low-temperature gas (the specific temperature of the low-temperature air is 5-20℃) is then heated by the first-stage dehumidifying heat exchanger E2 and sent into the breeding workshop G.

[0035] 3) When the moisture content of the outside gas is less than or equal to the moisture content of the gas exiting the deodorizing fan F1, and the difference in moisture content is no greater than 5 to 20 grams per cubic meter, and the outside temperature is less than or equal to the dew point temperature of the exhaust gas discharged from the workshop, and the temperature difference is no greater than 3 to 10°C, open the third air valve V3 and the sixth air valve V6, close the first air valve V1, the second air valve V2, the fourth air valve V4, the fifth air valve V5, and the seventh air valve V7, start the refrigeration unit B, and stop the condensate pump P; the fresh air directly enters the first-stage dehumidification heat exchanger E2 and the second-stage dehumidification heat exchanger E3 for condensation and dehumidification, and the dehumidified low-temperature gas is then heated by the first-stage dehumidification heat exchanger E2 before being sent to the breeding workshop G.

[0036] 4) When the moisture content of the outside gas is less than or equal to the moisture content of the gas exiting the deodorizing fan F1, and the difference in moisture content is no greater than 5-20 g / m³, and the outside temperature is less than or equal to the dew point temperature of the exhaust gas discharged from the workshop, and the temperature difference is greater than 3-10℃, open the first air valve V1, the fourth air valve V4, and the sixth air valve V6, close the second air valve V2, the third air valve V3, the fifth air valve V5, and the seventh air valve V7, start the refrigeration unit B, and stop the condensate pump P; the fresh air directly enters the first-stage dehumidification heat exchanger E2 and the second-stage dehumidification heat exchanger E3 for condensation and dehumidification, and the dehumidified low-temperature gas is then heated by the first-stage dehumidification heat exchanger E2 and the heat exchanger E1 before being sent into the breeding workshop.

[0037] 5) When the moisture content of the outside gas is less than or equal to the moisture content of the gas exiting the deodorizing fan F1, and the difference in moisture content is greater than 5 to 20 grams per cubic meter, and the outside temperature is less than or equal to the dew point temperature of the exhaust gas discharged from the workshop, and the temperature difference is not greater than 3 to 10°C, open the first air valve V1, the second air valve V2, and the sixth air valve V6, close the third air valve V3, the fourth air valve V4, the fifth air valve V5, and the seventh air valve V7, and stop the refrigeration unit B and the condensate pump P; fresh air directly enters the breeding workshop G.

[0038] 6) When the moisture content of the outside gas is less than or equal to the moisture content of the gas exiting the deodorizing fan F1, and the difference in moisture content is greater than 5 to 20 grams per cubic meter, and the outside temperature is less than or equal to the dew point temperature of the exhaust gas discharged from the workshop, and the temperature difference is greater than 3 to 10°C, open the first air valve V1 and the fifth air valve V5, close the second air valve V2, the third air valve V3, the fourth air valve V4, the sixth air valve V6, and the seventh air valve V7, and stop the refrigeration unit B and the condensate pump P; after the fresh air is heated by the heat exchanger E1, it is sent into the breeding workshop G.

[0039] An existing black soldier fly larvae farm uses kitchen waste slurry with a moisture content of 75% to maintain a temperature of 30-33℃ and a relative humidity of 65%-80% in the breeding workshop. The average annual power consumption for deodorization, temperature control, and dehumidification is 76 kWh / kg of slurry, which is 37%-50% more energy-efficient than conventional deodorization, temperature control, and dehumidification systems that consume 120-150 kWh / kg of slurry. The effect is significant.

[0040] The above description is merely a selection of preferred embodiments of this disclosure and an explanation of the technical principles employed. Those skilled in the art should understand that the scope of the invention involved in the embodiments of this disclosure is not limited to technical solutions formed by specific combinations of the above-described technical features, but should also cover other technical solutions formed by arbitrary combinations of the above-described technical features or their equivalents without departing from the above-described inventive concept.
