In order to achieve uninterrupted gas supply to downstream gas-consuming equipment, almost all adsorption drying devices are designed as a double-tower structure. When one tower is performing adsorption operation, the other tower is regenerating the adsorbent at the same time. After a certain period of time, the double-tower working conditions are automatically switched. The interval from the start of adsorption operation of a tower, through regeneration, pressure equalization and other processes, to the start of the next adsorption operation is called the working cycle of the drying device.

[0008] The compressed air outlet pipe is connected to one end of the heat exchange pipeline, and the other end of the heat exchange pipeline is connected to the first inlet end of the regeneration gas-compressed hot air heat exchanger. The first outlet end of the regeneration gas-compressed hot air heat exchanger is connected to the inlet end of the electric heater through the tenth pipeline, and the second inlet end of the regeneration gas-compressed hot air heat exchanger is connected to the hot air output pipeline generated by the air compressor.
[0009] Preferably, the eighth pipeline is connected to one end of the eleventh pipeline and one end of the twelfth pipeline respectively, the eleventh pipeline is located between the seventh valve and the ninth pipeline, the twelfth pipeline is located between the eighth valve and the ninth pipeline, the other end of the eleventh pipeline is connected to the middle position of Tower A, the other end of the twelfth pipeline is connected to the middle position of Tower B, and the eleventh valve and the twelfth valve are installed on the eleventh pipeline and the twelfth pipeline respectively.
[0010] Preferably, the refrigerant inlet and refrigerant outlet of the cold dryer heat exchanger are respectively connected to the outlet and inlet of the first refrigeration device; the refrigerant inlet and refrigerant outlet of the regeneration gas cooling heat exchanger are respectively connected to the outlet and inlet of the second refrigeration device.

Thus, the temperature of the adsorbent at the bottom of tower A and / or tower B can be quickly increased, which is conducive to more effectively regenerating the moisture adsorbed in the desorbent adsorbent and reducing the presence of residual moisture in the adsorbent in the lower part of the drying tower.
[0015] By using the regeneration gas-compressed hot air heat exchanger as the regeneration airflow preheating device, when equipped with an oil-injected screw air compressor, the low-temperature compressed hot air at the air compressor outlet can be effectively used as a heat source to preheat the regeneration airflow, and the insufficient heat is provided by the electric heater, which can effectively reduce the regeneration heating energy consumption. When equipped with a centrifugal air compressor or an oil-free screw air compressor, the electric heater can be turned off, so that the regeneration gas-compressed hot air heat exchanger is directly used as a regeneration airflow heating device, so as to effectively use the high-temperature compressed hot air at the air compressor outlet as a heat source to directly heat the regeneration airflow, completely saving the energy consumption of the electric heater.

[0030] Working principle:
[0031] Working condition 1: in the adsorption state; at this time, the first valve 10, the fourth valve 14, the fifth valve 18, the seventh valve 22 and the eighth valve 23 are closed, and the second valve 11 and the sixth valve 19 are opened;
[0032] The working process is as follows: compressed air is first input into the cold dryer heat exchanger 3 from the compressed air inlet pipe 6, and the compressed air is cooled by the cold dryer heat exchanger 3. The cooled air then flows through the first pipeline 7, the second valve 11 and the third pipeline 9, and enters the B tower 2 from the bottom of the B tower 2 for adsorption drying. The dried air flows out after passing through the seventh pipeline 17, the sixth valve 19 and the compressed air outlet pipe 20 in sequence, thereby completing the operation of the adsorption airflow.
[0033] Condition 2: If Figure 2As shown, the regeneration preheating state; at this time, the first valve 10, the fourth valve 14, the fifth valve 18, the seventh valve 22, the eighth valve 23 and the twelfth valve 38 are closed; the second valve 11, the third valve 13, the sixth valve 19 and the eleventh valve 37 are opened, and the booster pump 33 is started;
[0034] The working process is as follows: the compressed air input from the compressed air inlet pipe 6 is first adsorbed and dried according to the process described in working condition 1, and then a part of the outlet air is separated from the compressed air outlet pipe 20 as the regeneration air flow. After the separated regeneration air flow is pressurized by the booster pump 33, it flows through the heat exchange pipeline 26 and enters the regeneration air-compressed hot air heat exchanger 5 from the first inlet end of the regeneration air-compressed hot air heat exchanger 5, so that the separated air is first pre-heated by the hot air generated by the operation of the air compressor in the regeneration air-compressed hot air heat exchanger 5, and then flows from the first outlet end of the regeneration air-compressed hot air heat exchanger 5 through the tenth pipeline 27, and then flows into the electric heater 25 for further heating. After the heated regeneration heating air flow flows out from the outlet end of the electric heater 25, it flows through the ninth pipeline 24, the eleventh pipeline 29 and the eleventh valve 37 in sequence, and then enters the A tower 1 from the middle of the A tower 1, so that the adsorbent in the lower half of the A tower 1 can be heated and desorbed by the regeneration heating air flow. Afterwards, the regenerated heating air flow carries the desorbed moisture and flows out from the bottom of tower A 1, and flows through the second pipeline 8, the fourth pipeline 12, the third valve 13 and the fifth pipeline 15 in sequence, and then enters the regenerated gas cooling heat exchanger 4 from the air inlet of the regenerated gas cooling heat exchanger 4, so that the regenerated heating air flow is cooled by the cooling capacity provided by the refrigerant circulating in the regenerated gas cooling heat exchanger 4 to condense the desorbed moisture carried and flow out; and the cooled regenerated air flow flows into the first pipeline 7 from the air outlet of the regenerated gas cooling heat exchanger 4, and then mixes with the compressed air flowing out from the air outlet of the cold dryer heat exchanger 3, thereby completing the internal circulation of the regenerated air flow.
[0035] Condition 3: If Figure 3 As shown, the regeneration heating state; at this time, the first valve 10, the fourth valve 14, the fifth valve 18, the eighth valve 23, the eleventh valve 37 and the twelfth valve 38 are closed; the second valve 11, the third valve 13, the sixth valve 19 and the seventh valve 22 are opened, and the booster pump 33 is started;
[0036] The working process is as follows: the compressed air input from the compressed air inlet pipe 6 is first adsorbed and dried according to the process described in working condition 1, and then a part of the outlet air is separated from the compressed air outlet pipe 20 as the regeneration air flow. After the separated regeneration air flow is pressurized by the booster pump 33, it flows through the heat exchange pipeline 26 and enters the regeneration air-compressed hot air heat exchanger 5 from the first inlet end of the regeneration air-compressed hot air heat exchanger 5, so that the separated air is pre-heated by the hot air generated by the operation of the air compressor in the regeneration air-compressed hot air heat exchanger 5, and then flows from the first outlet end of the regeneration air-compressed hot air heat exchanger 5 through the tenth pipeline 27, and then flows into the electric heater 25 for further heating. After the heated regeneration heating air flow flows out from the outlet end of the electric heater 25, it flows through the ninth pipeline 24, the eighth pipeline 21, the seventh valve 22 and the sixth pipeline 16 in sequence, and then enters the A tower 1 from the upper part of the A tower 1, so that all the adsorbents in the A tower 1 can be heated and desorbed by the regeneration heating air flow. Afterwards, the regenerated heating air flow carries the desorbed moisture and flows out from the bottom of tower A 1, and flows through the second pipeline 8, the fourth pipeline 12, the third valve 13 and the fifth pipeline 15 in sequence, and then enters the regenerated gas cooling heat exchanger 4 from the air inlet of the regenerated gas cooling heat exchanger 4, so that the regenerated heating air flow is cooled by the cooling capacity provided by the refrigerant circulating in the regenerated gas cooling heat exchanger 4 to condense the desorbed moisture carried and flow out; and the cooled regenerated air flow flows into the first pipeline 7 from the air outlet of the regenerated gas cooling heat exchanger 4, and then mixes with the compressed air flowing out from the air outlet of the cold dryer heat exchanger 3, thereby completing the internal circulation of the regenerated air flow.
[0037] Condition 4: If Figure 4 As shown, it is in a waiting state; at this time, the adsorption gas flow operates in the operating mode of operating condition 1. In this state, the first valve 10, the third valve 13, the fourth valve 14, the seventh valve 22, the eighth valve 23, the eleventh valve 37 and the twelfth valve 38 are closed; the second valve 11, the fifth valve 18 and the sixth valve 19 are opened; the booster pump 33 is turned off and running; at this time, tower A 1 is in a waiting state.
[0038] The above working conditions 1 to 4 are single-tower processes for compressed air. When the working states of tower A 1 and tower B 2 need to be switched, it is only necessary to switch the opening and closing states of the first valve 10, the second valve 11, the third valve 13, the fourth valve 14, the fifth valve 18, the sixth valve 19, the seventh valve 22, the eighth valve 23, the eleventh valve 37 and the twelfth valve 38 in the initial state; tower A 1 can be converted into an adsorption tower operation. Its operating principle is the same as the above operating process, so it will not be repeated.
[0039] Condition 5: If Figure 5As shown, the double towers are in parallel state; at this time, the third valve 13, the fourth valve 14, the seventh valve 22, the eighth valve 23, the eleventh valve 37 and the twelfth valve 38 are closed; the first valve 10, the second valve 11, the fifth valve 18 and the sixth valve 19 are opened, and the booster pump 33 is closed; at this time, the compressed air input from the compressed air inlet pipe 6 is cooled by the cold dryer heat exchanger 3, and then flows through the first pipeline 7, and then flows through the second pipeline 8 and the third pipeline 9, so that the cooled compressed air flows into the A tower 1 and the B tower 2 from the bottom of the A tower 1 and the B tower 2 at the same time, so as to adsorb and dry the A tower 1 and the B tower 2 at the same time, and the dried air flows to the compressed air outlet pipe 20 through the sixth pipeline 16 and the seventh pipeline 17 respectively, and then flows out after passing through the compressed air outlet pipe 20, thereby completing the operation of the simultaneous adsorption of the airflow by the A tower 1 and the B tower 2.
[0040] The present invention uses a booster pump 33 as a reflux device for the regeneration airflow, so that part of the outlet air can be used as a regeneration airflow to desorb the adsorbent in the drying tower; and the regeneration airflow circulates inside the entire combined dryer and is not discharged to the outside, thereby achieving zero emission of regeneration gas. In addition, by using a regeneration air cooling heat exchanger 4 to cool the regeneration airflow, the water content in the regeneration airflow can be effectively reduced, so that it can be mixed with the adsorption airflow and flow into the drying tower for adsorption, which can effectively reduce the heat demand for adsorbent desorption regeneration, reduce the energy consumption of electric heating, and achieve the purpose of energy saving.
[0041] In addition, the present invention provides a regeneration airflow interface at the middle position of the A tower 1 and the B tower 2 to connect to the eleventh pipeline 29 and the twelfth pipeline 30 respectively, so that in the working condition 2, the regeneration heating airflow can pass through the eleventh pipeline 29, the eleventh valve 37, the twelfth pipeline 30 and the twelfth valve 38 to bypass the upper part of the drying tower. The regeneration heating airflow can preheat the adsorbent in the lower part of the drying tower. Thereby, the temperature of the adsorbent at the bottom of the A tower 1 and / or the B tower 2 can be quickly increased, which is conducive to more effectively regenerating the moisture adsorbed in the desorption adsorbent and reducing the presence of residual moisture in the adsorbent in the lower part of the drying tower.
[0042] In addition, the present invention adopts the regeneration gas-compressed hot air heat exchanger 5 as the regeneration airflow preheating device, so that when it is equipped with an oil-injected screw air compressor, the low-temperature compressed hot air (65-80°C) at the outlet of the air compressor can be effectively used as a heat source to preheat the regeneration airflow, and the insufficient heat is provided by the electric heater 25, which can effectively reduce the regeneration heating energy consumption. When it is equipped with a centrifugal air compressor or an oil-free screw air compressor, the electric heater 25 can be turned off, so that the regeneration gas-compressed hot air heat exchanger 5 is directly used as the regeneration airflow heating device, so as to effectively use the high-temperature compressed hot air (110-150°C) at the outlet of the air compressor as a heat source to directly heat the regeneration airflow, completely saving the energy consumption of the electric heater 25.
[0043] Embodiment 2, as a further preferred embodiment of embodiment 1, the refrigerant inlet and refrigerant outlet of the cold dryer heat exchanger 3 are respectively connected to the outlet and inlet of the first refrigeration device 31; the refrigerant inlet and refrigerant outlet of the regeneration gas cooling heat exchanger 4 are respectively connected to the outlet and inlet of the second refrigeration device 32. The refrigerant can be output to the cold dryer heat exchanger 3 through the first refrigeration device 31, so that the input compressed air can be cooled by the cold capacity provided by the cold dryer heat exchanger 3, and the refrigerant after heat exchange can enter the first refrigeration device 31 again through the pipeline for recycling; the refrigerant can be output to the regeneration gas cooling heat exchanger 4 through the second refrigeration device 32, so that the regeneration heating airflow can be cooled by the cold capacity provided by the regeneration gas cooling heat exchanger 4, and the refrigerant after heat exchange can enter the second refrigeration device 32 again through the pipeline for recycling.
[0044] Embodiment 3, as a further preferred embodiment of embodiment 1, a thirteenth pipeline 34 is connected between the heat exchange pipeline 26 and the tenth pipeline 27, a ninth valve 35 is installed on the thirteenth pipeline 34, and a tenth valve 36 is installed at the first inlet end of the regeneration gas-compressed hot air heat exchanger 5.
[0045] like Figure 6 As shown, working condition 6 may also be included: cooling state; at this time, the first valve 10, the fourth valve 14, the fifth valve 18, the eighth valve 23, the tenth valve 36, the eleventh valve 37 and the twelfth valve 38 are closed; the second valve 11, the third valve 13, the sixth valve 19, the seventh valve 22 and the ninth valve 35 are opened, the booster pump 33 is started, and the electric heater 25 is turned off;
[0046] At this time, the compressed air input from the compressed air inlet pipe 6 is first adsorbed and dried according to the process described in working condition 1, and then a part of the outlet air is separated in the compressed air outlet pipe 20 as the regeneration air flow. After the separated regeneration air flow is pressurized by the booster pump 33, it flows through the heat exchange pipeline 26 and directly flows from the thirteenth pipeline 34 to the electric heater 25. At this time, the electric heater 25 is turned off and no longer heats. Therefore, after the regeneration air flow flows through the electric heater 25, it flows through the ninth pipeline 24, the eighth pipeline 21, the seventh valve 22 and the sixth pipeline 16 in sequence, and then enters the A tower 1 from the upper part of the A tower 1 to perform cold blowing on the regenerated A tower 1. Afterwards, the regeneration gas flow carries the desorbed moisture and flows out from the bottom of tower A 1, and flows through the second pipeline 8, the fourth pipeline 12, the third valve 13 and the fifth pipeline 15 in sequence, and then enters the regeneration gas cooling heat exchanger 4 from the air inlet of the regeneration gas cooling heat exchanger 4, so that the regeneration gas flow is cooled by the cooling capacity provided by the refrigerant circulating in the regeneration gas cooling heat exchanger 4 to condense the desorbed moisture carried and flow out; and the cooled regeneration gas flow flows into the first pipeline 7 from the air outlet of the regeneration gas cooling heat exchanger 4, and then mixes with the compressed air flowing out from the air outlet of the cold dryer heat exchanger 3, thereby completing the internal circulation of the regeneration gas flow.
