[0015] The system also includes: a rapid heat exchange system and a temperature and pressure monitoring element.

[0016] The micro-mixing reactor is also provided with a tubular reactor or a time-delay pipeline.

[0017] In order to achieve the object of the present invention, a method for continuously preparing a homogeneous crystal reaction system of a functional powder material is also provided, characterized in that the method comprises the following steps: Step 1: preparing at least two reaction fluids for preparing powder functional materials, and adjusting the pH value of the reaction stock solution corresponding to the fluids with an acid or a base; Step 2: passing the fluid into a continuous flow homogeneous crystal mixing reactor to cut it into micron-sized droplets to achieve rapid contact, collision and reaction; Step 3: After the reaction is completed, the generated solid powder product is filtered and dried to obtain a functional material precursor.

[0018] The reaction fluid contains one or more metal salt solutions, alkaline solutions or reagents that can precipitate the reaction fluid, and undergoes a co-precipitation reaction in a micro-mixing reactor, followed by filtration and washing, and then pumped into a tubular reactor for aging or crystallization.

[0019] The reagent that can precipitate the reaction fluid is one or more combinations of ammonium sulfide, ammonia water, sodium hydroxide, and ammonium carbonate. The reaction fluid is gas-liquid or oil-water or liquid suspension.

[0020] Specifically, in a specific embodiment of the scheme of the present invention, the purpose of the present invention is to provide a continuous intelligent micro-reaction metallurgical equipment for preparing functional powder materials; the equipment includes the following parts: a micro-mixing reactor with intelligent temperature control for nucleation of powder materials; a pipeline continuous flow reactor with intelligent temperature control for aging of micro-nano materials; a digital pump system for conveying raw material liquids of each reaction that can intelligently control the liquid delivery rate and monitor the pipeline pressure; a detection system for intelligently detecting parameters such as reaction pressure, temperature, pH value or dielectric constant of the reaction liquid at the target point; and a product collection system, etc.

[0021] Also provided is an application method of a micro-reaction intelligent device for continuously preparing functional powder materials, the method comprising the following steps: Two or more reaction fluids are configured to prepare powder functional materials, and the pH value of the reaction stock solution is adjusted by using an acid or a base; The fluid is passed into a continuous flow micro-mixing reactor to be fully cut into micron-sized droplets to achieve rapid contact, collision and reaction; After the reaction is completed, the generated solid powder product is filtered and dried to obtain a functional material precursor. The microreactor system includes a rapid heat exchange system and a temperature and pressure monitoring element.

[0022] The micro-mixing reactor is equipped with a tubular reactor or a time-delay pipeline to extend the reaction time. The multiple streams of fluids contain one or more metal salt solutions, alkaline solutions or other reagents that can precipitate them, and undergo a co-precipitation reaction in the micro-mixing reactor, followed by filtration and washing, and then pumped to the tubular reactor for aging or crystallization.

[0023] The multiple fluids contain one or more metal salt solutions, alkaline solutions or other reagents that can cause precipitation, such as one or more of ammonium sulfide, ammonia water, sodium hydroxide, ammonium carbonate, etc., and undergo a co-precipitation reaction in a micro-mixing reactor, and then directly enter a tubular reactor for aging or crystallization.

[0024] The microreactor system includes an ultrasonic reactor to promote precipitation reaction or crystallization aging process. Multiple fluids including one or more metal salt solutions and alkaline solutions are co-precipitated in a micro-mixing reactor and then directly enter a tubular reactor for aging or crystallization. Microwave energy or ultrasonic energy is input during the aging and crystallization process.

[0025] The micro-mixing reactor in the system can be a static mixer, or composed of two moving disks or moving barrels, or composed of a fixed disk or fixed barrel and a moving disk or moving barrel; the multiple fluids therein can also be gas-liquid, oil-water, liquid and suspension, or any combination of the above three.

[0026] The present invention has the following technical effects: The microchannel structure or the moving disk, the moving barrel and the guide groove therein in the mixing chamber of the microreactor of the present invention can cut the fluid material into extremely small droplets, so that the specific surface area of ​​the fluid material is sharply increased, thereby greatly enhancing the mass transfer rate, playing a role in homogenizing the flow field and the nucleation environment, thereby ensuring the consistency of nucleation before crystallization and the uniformity of the concentrations of the precipitant and the target metal ion at various locations; the present invention can not only use the microreactor to deal with the continuous nucleation problem of liquid-liquid reaction, but also can continuously deal with the growth process of the solution after nucleation in the microreactor or pipeline reactor, and has the advantage of a wide range of applications in the synthesis of micro-nano powder functional materials; the present invention can be used for the microreactor nucleation process.

[0027] The details are shown in the following table: Traditional reactor: products and concentrations are constantly changing, and the conditions for nucleus formation are unstable; material concentration is unevenly distributed, resulting in different particle sizes; reaction packages are agglomerated, hard, and have large gaps; trace amounts of raw materials will be encapsulated, resulting in difficult post-processing and a large amount of washing water; intelligent continuous synthesis: material concentration and temperature distribution are uniform, the raw materials are gradually consumed, forming crystals with uniform particle size, small particle size, large surface energy, adsorption agglomeration, adsorption agglomeration: post-processing is easy, and impurities can be controlled.

[0028] Intermittent reactor type: ① Temperature distribution: The specific surface area of ​​the reactor is small, the heat transfer efficiency is low, the temperature gradient is large, the heating rate is slow, and the energy consumption is high. ② Difficult temperature control: The desorption of ions on the surface of iron phosphate particles needs to be carried out in different temperature zones, and different ions require different desorption times. It is difficult to achieve temperature control in the reactor, the process is cumbersome, and the energy consumption is high. ③ Product quality: The product obtained by the reactor is not completely decrystallized, and some impurity ions are still adsorbed on the surface of the crystals.

[0029] Intelligent continuous synthesis: ① Temperature distribution: large specific surface area, high heat transfer efficiency, small temperature gradient, fast reaction temperature rise, and low energy consumption; ② Precise segmented temperature control: According to the different desorption temperatures and desorption times required by different ions, the microchannel can accurately control the reaction temperature and the desorption residence time in different temperature zones, which is easy to operate and has low energy consumption.

[0030] ③ Product quality: The products prepared by microchannel are more completely decrystallized, and there is basically no ion adsorption on the crystal surface.

[0031] A continuous preparation method for high-quality iron phosphate comprises the following steps: Step (1): adding ferrous sulfate heptahydrate produced as a byproduct of titanium dioxide to pure water and stirring to dissolve, maintaining the temperature at 80-85° C., then slowly adding ammonia water or liquid alkali to adjust the pH to 4.0-4.8, and after precipitation and filtration, taking the filtrate and adding dilute acid to adjust the pH to 1.4-2.5 to obtain an iron source solution; Step (2): diluting hydrogen peroxide with pure water to obtain a hydrogen peroxide solution; Step (3): premixing ammonia water and monoammonium phosphate solution or premixing phosphoric acid and liquid caustic soda, and then adding pure water to dilute the premixed mixture to obtain a phosphorus source solution; Step (4): respectively inputting the iron source solution, the hydrogen peroxide solution and the phosphorus source solution into the continuous micro-dynamic reactor by means of a constant flow pump, controlling the reaction temperature at 40 to 60° C., the reaction time at 0.5 to 3 min, and the pH of the reaction solution at 2.1 to 2.5, to synthesize an amorphous iron phosphate slurry; Step (5): rinsing the amorphous ferric phosphate slurry with pure water until the first conductivity is reached; Step (6): adding pure water and phosphoric acid to the rinsed amorphous iron phosphate, stirring and slurrying, controlling the pH of the slurry to 1.3-1.8 and the solid content to 8-25%, and then using a constant flow pump to transport the slurry to a continuous micro-dynamic reactor for aging, controlling the aging temperature to 80-95° C., aging for 1.5-2 hours, to obtain a crystalline iron phosphate slurry; Step (7): rinsing the crystalline ferric phosphate slurry with pure water until the second conductivity is reached; Step (8): drying the rinsed crystalline ferric phosphate at a temperature of 120 to 150° C. for 2 to 4 hours to remove adsorbed water to obtain a dried material; Step (9): calcining the dried material at a temperature of 550-650° C. for 4-6 hours to dehydrate the dried material, thereby obtaining anhydrous ferric phosphate; Step (10): The anhydrous ferric phosphate powder is crushed to obtain high-quality ferric phosphate.

[0032] In step (1), the dilute acid is at least one of sulfuric acid and phosphoric acid.

[0033] In step (1), the iron content in the ferrous sulfate solution is 0.9 to 1.6 mol / L.

[0034] In step (2), the concentration of the hydrogen peroxide solution is 10 to 27.5%.

[0035] In step (3), the concentration of the aqueous ammonia is 10-25%, and the concentration of the monoammonium phosphate solution is 1.5-2.5 mol / L.

[0036] In step (3), the concentration of phosphoric acid is 10-80%, and the concentration of liquid alkali is 5-20%.

[0037] In step (3), the molar ratio of the aqueous ammonia to monoammonium phosphate is 0.3-0.4:1.

[0038] In step (3), the molar ratio of phosphoric acid to liquid alkali is 0.5-0.6:1.

[0039] In step (3), the phosphorus content in the phosphorus source solution is 1.0 to 2.2 mol / L.

[0040] In step (4), the molar ratio of the iron source solution, the hydrogen peroxide solution and the phosphorus source solution is 1:0.55-0.6:0.995-1.05.

[0041] In step (4) and step (6), the continuous micro-dynamic reactor has a special structure inside, as described in the authorized patent CN216573100U.

[0042] In step (5), the first conductivity is <5 mS / cm; in step (7), the second conductivity is <0.3 mS / cm.

[0043] Beneficial effects: The invention has a simple process, fewer steps, small equipment footprint, and low energy consumption, that is, it eliminates the Fe2+ pre-oxidation step, saves sulfuric acid and alkali, avoids the problem of colloid deterioration generated by pre-oxidation during storage, and does not require a special pre-oxidation mixer or storage tank. The invention realizes the synthesis of iron phosphate by three-phase feed control, and completes the oxidation of Fe2+ to Fe in one step. 3+ , Fe 3+ and PO4 3- Combined with the process of generating FePO4•2H2O precipitation, the ferric phosphate has high crystallinity and low water content after aging, which greatly saves the investment in flash evaporation equipment and energy consumption.

[0044] The iron phosphate produced by the present invention has a small particle size and meets industry standards. By controlling the feed ratio of the iron source solution, the hydrogen peroxide solution and the phosphorus source solution, the reaction temperature, the reaction time and the fluid mechanics conditions of the reaction solution, it is avoided that Fe3+ is hydrolyzed to generate Fe(OH)3 colloid due to excessively high temperature, thereby causing agglomeration, and further avoids the problem that the generated iron phosphate stays in the reaction solution for too long, resulting in an increase in particle size and uneven particle size distribution.

[0045] The continuous micro-dynamic reactor uses CN216573100U equipment, which has a specially designed stirring blade inside. It can well control the fluid in a fluid mechanics method similar to plug flow, greatly reducing the back mixing that leads to large iron phosphate particle size and irregular morphology.

[0046] The present invention realizes continuous production of synthesis and aging processes, saves overall production time, has low energy consumption, and has controllable product quality. Rapid production of various types of iron phosphate can be achieved by adjusting process parameters.

[0047] Example 1 A continuous preparation method for high-quality iron phosphate comprises the following steps: Step (1): adding ferrous sulfate produced as a byproduct of titanium dioxide into pure water and stirring to dissolve, maintaining the temperature at 80° C., then slowly adding ammonia water to adjust the pH to 4.2, after precipitation and filtration, adding dilute sulfuric acid to the filtrate to adjust the pH to 2.5, and adding pure water to dilute, to obtain a ferrous sulfate solution with an iron content of 1.5 mol / L; Step (2): preparing a 27.5% hydrogen peroxide solution; Step (3): neutralize 20% ammonia water and 2.5 mol / L monoammonium phosphate at a molar ratio of NH3•H2O:NH4H2PO4=0.35:1, and add pure water to dilute to obtain a phosphorus source solution with a phosphorus content of 2.2 mol / L; Step (4): inputting ferrous sulfate solution, hydrogen peroxide and phosphorus source solution into a continuous micro-dynamic reactor in a molar ratio of 1:0.55:1.02 by a constant flow pump for reaction, and controlling the reaction temperature to 50° C., the reaction time to 2 min, the pH value to 2.2 and kept constant, and obtaining amorphous iron phosphate slurry; Step (5): rinsing the amorphous iron phosphate slurry with pure water until the conductivity is 3.4 mS / cm; Step (6): adding pure water and an appropriate amount of phosphoric acid to the rinsed amorphous iron phosphate, stirring and slurrying, dispersing the slurry to a pH of 1.7 and a solid content of 12%, and then transporting the slurry to a continuous micro-dynamic reactor for aging using a constant flow pump, controlling the aging temperature to 92±1°C and the aging time to 2h, to obtain a crystalline iron phosphate slurry; Step (7): rinsing the crystalline iron phosphate slurry with pure water until the conductivity is 250 μs / cm; Step (8): drying the rinsed crystalline ferric phosphate at 120° C. for 4 h to obtain a dried material; Step (9): placing the dried material in a rotary kiln and calcining it at 550° C. for 5 h to obtain anhydrous ferric phosphate.

[0048] Example 2 Based on Example 1, the difference from Example 1 is that the ammonia water in step (1) is replaced with liquid alkali, and the preparation of the phosphorus source solution in step (3) is changed to neutralizing 10% liquid alkali and 20% phosphoric acid in a molar ratio of H3PO4:NaOH=0.55:1.

[0049] Example 3 Based on Example 1, the difference from Example 1 is that the ratio of NH3•H2O:NH4H2PO4 in step (3) is adjusted to 0.32:1.

[0050] Example 4 Based on Example 1, the difference from Example 1 is that the iron source solution in step (4) is first oxidized with hydrogen peroxide Fe2+:H2O2 at a ratio of 1:0.55 to generate iron sulfate and phosphorus source solution, which are then input into the continuous micro-dynamic reactor for reaction using a constant flow pump at a Fe3+:P molar ratio of 1:1.02.

[0051] Example 5 Based on Example 1, the difference from Example 1 is that the amount of phosphoric acid in step (6) is adjusted so that the pH of the slurry is adjusted to 1.5.

[0052] Example 6 Based on Example 1, the difference from Example 1 is that the aging time is 1.5 hours.

[0053] Comparative Example 1 On the basis of Example 1, the difference from Example 1 is that: the iron source solution, hydrogen peroxide and phosphorus source solution in step (4) are input into a reactor with a stirring speed of 200 r / min in a molar ratio of 1:0.56:1.02 by a constant flow pump for reaction, the reaction temperature is controlled at 50±2°C, and after the addition of the materials, the mixture is kept warm and stirred for 30 minutes; in step (6), an aging kettle is used for aging.

[0054] Comparative Example 2 Based on Example 1, the difference from Example 1 is that: the iron source solution in step (4) is first oxidized with hydrogen peroxide Fe2+:H2O2 at a ratio of 1:0.56, and then the phosphorus source solution is transported to the reactor at a Fe3+:P molar ratio of 1:1.02 by a constant flow pump for reaction; and in step (6), an aging kettle is used for aging.

[0055] Comparative Example 3 Based on Example 1, the difference from Example 1 is that the continuous micro-dynamic reactor in step (6) is replaced by an aging kettle for aging.
