[0031] The disclosure below provides many different embodiments or examples to implement different structures of the embodiments of the present invention. In order to simplify the disclosure of the embodiments of the present invention, the parts and settings of specific examples are described below. Of course, they are only examples, and the purpose is not to limit the embodiments of the present invention. In addition, the embodiments of the present invention can repeat reference numbers and / or reference letters in different examples, and this repetition is for the purpose of simplification and clarity, which itself does not indicate the relationship between the various embodiments and / or settings discussed.

[0032] See also Figure 1 As shown, this embodiment provides a fluidized bed reactor, comprising a vertical cylinder 1, a tube group 2 vertically arranged in the cylinder 1, and a material distributor 3 arranged in the cylinder 1 and located below the tube group 2. The tube group 2 adopts a multi-return heat extraction tube bundle structure composed of a plurality of parallel finger-shaped tubes 21, each of which comprises an inner tube 211 with openings at both ends, and an outer tube 212 sleeved on the outer side of the inner tube 211, wherein the upper end of the outer tube 212 is open and lower than the upper end of the inner tube 211, and the lower end of the outer tube 212 is closed and is a downward pointed cone.

[0033] See also Figure 2 As shown, an upper tube plate 9 for the upper end of the inner tube 211 to pass through is provided on the upper portion of the cylinder 1, and a supporting tube plate 10 is provided below the upper tube plate 9 and for the upper end of the outer tube 212 to pass through. The heat transfer oil inlet 7 and the heat transfer oil outlet 8 are respectively located above the upper tube plate 9, and a partition plate 11 is provided between the two.

[0034] This setup has the following advantages:

[0035] The sharp corners at the bottom of the finger-shaped tube 21 can avoid damage caused by repeated scouring of the material transmitted upward during the reaction process, and the service life is relatively long, which is conducive to large-scale production;

[0036] The multiple finger-shaped tubes 21 in the tube group 2 are connected in sequence through the upper tube sheet 9 and the supporting tube sheet 10 to form a multi-return heat extraction tube bundle structure, which ensures the overall heat transfer amount and heat exchange efficiency and is conducive to large-scale production.

[0037] In this embodiment, a plurality of tube groups 2 are provided in the cylinder 1, and a plurality of finger-shaped tubes 21 in each tube group 2 are evenly arranged in the cylinder 1, which is beneficial to uniform heat transfer to the material.

[0038] See also Figure 3 As shown, adjacent finger-shaped tubes 21 are arranged in the cylinder 1 in a square arrangement with four vertices. During the reaction process, the material is not only transported upward, but also has a tendency to move from the center of the circle to the circumference. The traditional triangular arrangement structure will make it difficult to establish a fluidized state, forming a channel flow, which will make the fluidized bed state unstable. In this structure, the square flow channel is interconnected, making it easier to establish a fluidized state. In particular, when the reactant silicon powder is not dry enough, the traditional triangular arrangement structure is more likely to cause adhesion and coking problems. In this embodiment, the pipe spacing is 1.8-2.2 times the outer diameter of the finger-shaped tube 21, which is more conducive to establishing a fluidized state. When the outer diameter and spacing of the finger-shaped tube 21 are the same, the critical fluidization velocity of this structure is 10-15% smaller than that of the triangular arrangement structure.

[0039] See also Figure 1 As shown, the cylinder 1 is composed of a feeding section 101, a reaction section 102, an expansion section 103 and a heat transfer oil tank section 104 from bottom to top. The material inlet 4 and the catalyst inlet 5 are arranged on the cylinder 1 corresponding to the feeding section 101; the product outlet 6 and the return material inlet 12 are arranged on the cylinder 1 corresponding to the expansion section 103; the heat transfer oil inlet 7, the heat transfer oil outlet 8, the upper tube sheet 9 and the supporting tube sheet 10 are arranged on the cylinder 1 corresponding to the heat transfer oil tank section 104; the finger-shaped tube 21 extends downward from the heat transfer oil tank section 104 to the reaction section 102; the return material inlet 12 is located below the product outlet 6, and a separator (not shown in the figure) located outside the cylinder 1 is arranged between the return material inlet 12 and the product outlet 6.

[0040] The barrel 1 corresponding to the reaction section 102 includes a first tapered portion that gradually widens upward from the feeding section 101 and a first straight barrel portion that connects the first tapered portion and the barrel 1 corresponding to the expansion section 103. The barrel 1 corresponding to the expansion section 103 includes a second tapered portion that gradually widens upward from the reaction section 102, a second straight barrel portion, and a third tapered portion that gradually narrows upward, which are connected in sequence, and the third tapered portion is used to connect the thermal oil tank section 104. By setting the expansion section 103, it is possible to avoid excessive discharge per unit time resulting in excessive load on the separator, and by setting the second tapered portion, it is also beneficial to the sedimentation of the reactant silicon powder. In this embodiment, the taper of the second tapered portion is 9-11 degrees.

[0041] See also Figure 4-5 As shown, the fluidized bed reactor further includes a sleeve 13 which is sleeved on the finger-shaped tube 21 and has conical upper and lower ends, and a connecting rib plate 14 connected between adjacent sleeves 13. The upper end of the connecting rib plate 14 is conical or wedge-shaped, and the lower end of the connecting rib plate 14 is conical or wedge-shaped.

[0042] This structural setting can not only reduce the area and resistance of the windward surface at the lower end, thus avoiding blocking the reaction materials being transported upward, but also avoid the accumulation of silicon powder at the upper end, greatly improving the permeability of the fluidized bed reactor, thereby improving the uniformity of the temperature field of the fluidized bed reactor.

[0043] The working principle of the present invention is as follows:

[0044] Since the reaction is an endothermic reaction at the beginning, at the start-up, the heat transfer oil with a certain amount of heat is first introduced into the heat transfer oil tank section 104 from the heat transfer oil inlet 7, enters the inner tube 211 located on the upper tube plate 9, and reaches the end of the inner tube 211, enters the outer tube 212 at the end, flows upward along the outer tube 212 to the position between the upper tube plate 9 and the supporting tube plate 10, and then enters the outer tube 212 of the second finger-shaped tube 21, reaches the end of the outer tube 212, enters the inner tube 211 at the end, flows upward along the inner tube 211 to the upper tube plate 9, and then enters the inner tube 211 of the third finger-shaped tube 21, and the cycle continues, and finally flows upward from the inner tube 211 of the fourth finger-shaped tube 21 through the heat transfer oil outlet 8 to the outside of the fluidized bed. Through this process, the heat transfer oil carrying heat can fully heat the materials in the bed to reach and maintain the reaction temperature in the fluidized bed.

[0045] The reactant raw materials enter the feeding section 101 through the material inlet 4, and enter the bed uniformly through the material distributor 3 for circulating fluidization, and are heated to the reaction temperature by the heat transfer oil. The preheated catalyst and related intermediates enter the fluidized bed through the catalyst inlet 5 through the material distributor 3 and the cone part to realize the reaction. The reactants flow from bottom to top in the fluidized bed, and form a dense phase area at the bottom of the fluidized bed and a dilute phase area in the middle. They pass through the expansion section 103 and enter the separator through the product outlet 6. The separated reactants enter the expansion section 103 again through the return material inlet 12.

[0046] Since the reaction process is an exothermic reaction, when the reaction starts, the temperature in the fluidized bed rises rapidly. In order to maintain the required temperature for the reaction, the heat transfer oil in the tube stops heating and starts to absorb the reaction heat. The heat is carried out of the reactor by the heat transfer oil to achieve a uniform reaction temperature field in the bed.

[0047] The above embodiments are only for illustrating the technical concept and features of the present invention, and their purpose is to enable people familiar with this technology to understand the content of the present invention and implement it. They cannot be used to limit the protection scope of the present invention. Any equivalent changes or modifications made according to the spirit of the present invention should be included in the protection scope of the present invention.
