Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] The invention relates to the technical field of wire mesh demisters, in particular to a wire mesh demister for gas-liquid separation. Background Art
[0002] The wire mesh demister is mainly composed of a wire mesh, a wire mesh grid, a wire mesh block, and a support device for fixing the wire mesh block. The wire mesh is a gas-liquid filter mesh made of various materials. The gas-liquid filter mesh is composed of metal wire or non-metal wire. The non-metal wire of the gas-liquid filter mesh is twisted from multiple strands of non-metallic fibers, or it can be a single strand of non-metallic wire.
[0003] In the actual production process, the airflow with water droplets and steam generated depends on its natural volatilization or evaporation, and it is difficult to accurately control its wind speed and flow rate. Therefore, its adhesion efficiency on the wire mesh is low and the water droplets gather slowly. The filtering effect of the wire mesh depends on the gravity dripping formed by the gathering of water droplets to achieve the purpose of automatically cleaning the wire mesh.
[0004] Therefore, the common demister with grid wire mesh has the following problems:
[0005] 1. It can only play the role of defoaming and gas-liquid separation. However, in the actual filtration and separation process, due to the slow flow rate of the airflow, the water droplets adhere to the gaps in the screen, and their aggregation speed is slow. Therefore, the water droplets adhere and gather but will not quickly form water droplets and fall down, resulting in the water droplets being blocked in the gaps, affecting the subsequent airflow, thereby reducing the filtration efficiency;
[0006] 2. When the filtration efficiency is affected, the internal pressure of the tank will increase, affecting the stability of the equipment and increasing the risk of safety accidents. It will also cause the airflow to overflow in the opposite direction along the air inlet. Summary of the invention

After the water droplets gather into drops, they impact the inner wall of the separation tank 1 and fall along the inner wall of the separation tank 1, thereby achieving the purpose of improving the filtering efficiency.
[0046] While descending, the driving force during the descent process drives the gear sets in the linkage assembly to engage with each other, thereby driving the rotating tube 17 to rotate between the upper tube 9 and the lower tube 7, so that the airflow in the open tube cleans the inner side of the wire mesh layer 4 at a circular angle along the open groove 18 under the action of pressure.
