Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This invention belongs to the field of sludge drying technology, specifically relating to a low-temperature sludge drying device and its usage method. Background Technology
[0002] The sludge discharged from urban wastewater treatment plants, after gravity thickening and mechanical dewatering, has a moisture content of around 80%, is bulky, and has a low calorific value. It is unsuitable for aerobic composting, incineration, building material utilization, or even landfilling. It must be further dewatered and dried. Sludge drying, also known as sludge dewatering, refers to the process of removing most of the water content from sludge through processes such as filtration or evaporation. It generally refers to the use of self-evaporation facilities such as sludge drying beds. After sludge thickening, physical methods are used to further reduce the moisture content of the sludge, making it easier for the sludge to be transported, stored, utilized, or further treated. There are two types of dewatering (drying): natural evaporation and mechanical dewatering. Both are measures to further reduce the moisture content of sludge. After sludge thickening, physical methods are used to further reduce the moisture content of the sludge, making it easier for the sludge to be transported, stored, utilized, or further treated.

[0015] Includes the following steps:
[0016] S1. When the equipment program sets the speed of the second motor to V1, the second motor drives the two sets of sludge stirring rods to rotate slowly, stirring and crushing the input sludge. At this time, the equipment program detects whether the speed of the two speed sensors is V1. If it is ≤V1, the equipment program determines that the batch of sludge has a high water content and good fluidity. The equipment program controls the speed of the fourth motor to be adjusted to X1, and the running time is Y3. The fourth motor drives the two sets of sludge pressing rollers to rotate slowly, pressing the sludge flat and letting it fall downwards onto the first conveyor belt for conveying. At this time, the equipment program starts timing. When the running time of the fourth motor reaches Y3, the equipment program controls the fourth motor to stop. The stopping time is Y0. At this time, the two sets of sludge stirring rods continue to rotate slowly to avoid the sludge from accumulating in the feed box due to a long period of stopping, resulting in mud-water separation, avoiding damage to the equipment, and reducing the maintenance cost of the factory. When the stopping time is up, the equipment program controls the above operation to be repeated.
[0017] S2. If V1 ≤ the rotation speed of the two sets of speed sensors ≤ V2, the equipment program determines that the sludge in this batch has normal moisture content and good fluidity. The equipment program controls the rotation speed of the second motor to V2, increases the stirring speed of the two sets of sludge stirring rods, and speeds up the crushing of the sludge. The rotation speed of the fourth motor is adjusted to X2, and the running time is Y2, which increases the stirring speed of the two sets of sludge pressing rollers. After the sludge is pressed flat, it falls downward onto the first conveyor belt for conveying. At this time, the equipment program starts timing. When the running time of the fourth motor reaches Y2, the equipment program controls the fourth motor to stop. The stopping time is Y0. At this time, the two sets of sludge stirring rods continue to rotate to prevent the sludge from accumulating in the feed box and drying and clumping due to a long period of stopping, thus avoiding damage to the equipment and reducing the maintenance cost of the factory. When the stopping time is up, the equipment program controls the above operation to be repeated.
[0018] S3. If V2 ≤ the rotation speed of the two sets of speed sensors ≤ V3, the equipment program determines that the sludge in this batch has low water content and poor fluidity. The equipment program controls the rotation speed of the second motor to V3, increases the stirring speed of the two sets of sludge stirring rods, and speeds up the crushing speed of the sludge. The rotation speed of the fourth motor is adjusted to X3, and the running time is Y1. The fourth motor drives the two sets of sludge pressing rollers to rotate quickly, pressing the sludge flat and then letting it fall downwards onto the first conveyor belt for conveying. At this time, the equipment program starts timing. When the running time of the fourth motor reaches Y1, the equipment program controls the fourth motor to stop. The stopping time is Y0. At this time, the two sets of sludge stirring rods continue to rotate to prevent the sludge from accumulating in the feed box and drying and clumping due to a long period of stopping, thus avoiding damage to the equipment and reducing the maintenance cost of the factory. When the stopping time is up, the equipment program controls the above operation to repeat.
[0019] Includes the following steps:
[0020] S1. When the equipment program detects that the speed of the second motor is V1, the equipment program determines that the sludge has a high water content. The equipment program controls the speed of the third motor to be adjusted to M1. The third motor drives the first conveyor belt to rotate slowly, so that the flattened sludge is conveyed backward. At the same time, the equipment program controls the first electric valve to open. The heating fan diverts hot air to the first ventilation pipe and sprays it downward to perform secondary drying on the sludge conveyed on the first conveyor belt, improves the drying efficiency, and ensures that the sludge can be completely dried. During the drying process, the heat conduction rod conducts heat to the sludge shovel to heat it, so that it can quickly shovel off the sludge blocks and turn them over to improve the sludge drying efficiency. Then the equipment program controls the refrigeration unit to start. The fan blows air into the refrigeration box, and the cold air blows out from the second ventilation pipe and the third ventilation pipe to perform low-temperature drying operation on the sludge conveyed on the first conveyor belt.
[0021] S2. When the equipment program detects that the speed of the second motor is V2, the equipment program determines that the sludge moisture content is normal. The equipment program controls the speed of the third motor to be adjusted to M2. The third motor drives the first conveyor belt to rotate, so that the flattened sludge is conveyed backward. At the same time, the equipment program controls the first electric valve to close, and the heating fan sprays hot air downward to dry the sludge conveyed on the first conveyor belt, improves the drying efficiency, and ensures that the sludge can be completely dried. Then the equipment program controls the refrigeration unit to start. After the fan blows air into the refrigeration box, the cold air blows out from the second ventilation pipe and the third ventilation pipe to perform low-temperature drying operation on the sludge conveyed on the first conveyor belt.
[0022] S3. When the equipment program detects that the speed of the second motor is V3, the equipment program determines that the sludge has low moisture content. The equipment program controls the speed of the third motor to be adjusted to M3. The third motor drives the first conveyor belt to rotate quickly, so that the flattened sludge is conveyed backward. At the same time, the equipment program controls the first electric valve to open, and the heating fan diverts hot air to the first ventilation pipe and sprays it downward to perform secondary drying on the sludge conveyed on the first conveyor belt, improves the drying efficiency, and ensures that the sludge can be completely dried. During the drying process, the heat conduction rod conducts heat to the sludge shovel to heat it, so that it can quickly shovel off the sludge blocks and turn them over, improving the sludge drying efficiency. Then the equipment program controls the refrigeration unit to start. The fan blows air into the refrigeration box, and the cold air blows out from the second and third ventilation pipes to perform low-temperature drying operation on the sludge conveyed on the first conveyor belt.
[0023] Compared with the prior art, the beneficial effects achieved by the present invention are as follows: The present invention, through the coordinated use of two sets of sludge stirring rods, two sets of sludge pressing rollers, two sets of speed sensors and equipment programs, can determine the moisture content of a batch of sludge based on the different sludge stirring speeds, and adjust the pressing speed and feeding time according to the different sludge moisture content. When the sludge moisture content is high, it is stirred slowly to avoid mud and water splashing everywhere in the production workshop and affecting the workshop environment. At the same time, the sludge is pressed slowly and the running time is increased to increase the amount of sludge fed. While increasing the output, it can avoid the sludge flowing everywhere due to continuous feeding. When the sludge moisture content is low, it is stirred quickly to prevent the sludge from accumulating in the feeding box and drying and clumping due to long periods of inactivity. At the same time, the sludge is pressed quickly and the running time is reduced to reduce the amount of sludge fed, ensuring that the sludge can be completely dried and reducing the rework cost of the factory.
[0024] By using the third motor, the first electric valve, the refrigeration unit, and the equipment program in coordination, the feeding speed can be adjusted according to the different moisture contents of the sludge. When the sludge has a high moisture content, the feeding speed is reduced to prevent the mud and water from flowing everywhere due to excessive speed. When the sludge has a low moisture content, the feeding speed is increased to improve production efficiency. When the sludge has a high moisture content, the hot air is diverted and then used for secondary drying to improve the sludge drying efficiency. At the same time, the heat is used again to heat the sludge shovel blades, enabling them to quickly shovel off the sludge and turn it over to prevent the sludge from drying on the surface while remaining moist inside. Low-temperature drying is also performed to make the sludge dry more thoroughly and reduce the factory's rework costs. Attached Figure Description

[0046] The four sets of motors, three sets of electric valves, heating fan 25, fan 343, and cooler 36 are all connected to the equipment program signal.
[0047] Sludge conveying operation:
[0048] When workers need to perform low-temperature drying of sludge, they first use tools to move the sludge conveying pipe to the feed box 11, then turn on the workshop power. At this time, the sludge drying box 1 starts, the equipment program starts, and the equipment program controls the start of four sets of motors. The second motor 131 drives the two sets of sludge stirring rods 23 to rotate, the fourth motor 151 drives the two sets of sludge pressing rollers 24 to rotate, the third motor 141 starts rotating forward and drives the first conveyor belt 31 to rotate, and the first motor 121 starts rotating in reverse and drives the second conveyor belt 32 to rotate. After the sludge is fed into the feed box 11, it moves downward to the two sets of sludge stirring rods 23 for stirring and conveying. The clumps of sludge are fully broken up and then conveyed downward to the two sets of sludge pressing rollers 24 for flattening. After being flattened, the sludge falls downward onto the first conveyor belt 31. Then the equipment program controls the fan 343 and the heating... When the blower 25 is turned on, the second electric valve 3411 and the third electric valve 3421 are opened, and the first electric valve 252 is closed. The blower 343 blows air into the refrigeration box 34 and then blows it out from the second ventilation pipe 341 and the third ventilation pipe 342. At this time, the refrigeration unit 36 is closed, and the conveyed sludge is dried at room temperature. The heating blower 25 blows hot air downwards onto the sludge conveyed by the first conveyor belt 31 to dry the sludge. After drying, the sludge is conveyed to the top of the second conveyor belt 32. At this time, the sludge shovel 351 shovels the sludge off the first conveyor belt 31 and makes it fall onto the second conveyor belt 32 for subsequent secondary drying and conveying. At the same time, it can turn the sludge over to improve the drying efficiency. The dried sludge will fall from the discharge pipe 33 into the subsequent collection device for easy collection by the staff.
[0049] During the above operations, the equipment program detects the rotational speeds of the two sets of sludge agitator bars 23 using two sets of speed detectors 22 and compares them with the set values. The equipment program sets the rotational speed of the second motor 131 to V1, V2, and V3, where V1 is the minimum and V3 is the maximum, and can be adjusted according to specific needs. The rotational speed of the fourth motor 151 is set to X1, X2, and X3, where X1 is the minimum and X2 is the maximum, and can be adjusted according to specific needs. The running time of the fourth motor 151 is set to Y1, Y2, and Y3, and the stopping time is set to Y0, where Y1 is the minimum and Y3 is the maximum, and can be adjusted according to specific needs. When the equipment program sets the rotational speed of the second motor 131 to V1, the second motor 131 drives the two sets of sludge agitator bars 23 to rotate slowly, performing agitation and crushing operations on the input sludge. At this time, the equipment... The program detects whether the rotation speed of the two sets of speed sensors 22 is V1. If it is ≤V1, the program determines that the sludge in this batch has a high water content and good fluidity. The program controls the speed of the fourth motor 151 to be adjusted to X1 and the running time is Y3. The fourth motor 151 drives the two sets of sludge pressing rollers 24 to rotate slowly, pressing the sludge flat and then letting it fall downwards onto the first conveyor belt 31 for conveying. At this time, the program starts timing. When the running time of the fourth motor 151 reaches Y3, the program controls the fourth motor 151 to stop. The stopping time is Y0. At this time, the two sets of sludge stirring rods 23 continue to rotate slowly to avoid the sludge from accumulating in the feed box 11 due to a long period of stopping, which would cause mud-water separation, avoid damage to the device, and reduce the maintenance cost of the factory. When the stopping time is up, the program controls the above operation to be repeated.
[0050] If V1 ≤ the rotation speed of the two sets of speed sensors 22 ≤ V2, the equipment program determines that the sludge in this batch has normal moisture content and good fluidity. The equipment program controls the rotation speed of the second motor 131 to V2, increases the stirring speed of the two sets of sludge stirring rods 23, and speeds up the crushing of the sludge. The rotation speed of the fourth motor 151 is adjusted to X2, and the running time is Y2, which increases the stirring speed of the two sets of sludge pressing rollers 24. After the sludge is pressed flat, it falls downward onto the first conveyor belt 31 for conveying. At this time, the equipment program starts timing. When the running time of the fourth motor 151 reaches Y2, the equipment program controls the fourth motor 151 to stop. The stopping time is Y0. At this time, the two sets of sludge stirring rods 23 continue to rotate to prevent the sludge from accumulating in the feed box 11 and drying and clumping due to a long period of stopping, thus avoiding damage to the equipment and reducing the maintenance cost of the factory. When the stopping time is up, the equipment program controls the above operation to be repeated.
[0051] If V2 ≤ the rotation speed of the two sets of speed sensors 22 ≤ V3, the equipment program determines that the sludge in this batch has low water content and poor fluidity. The equipment program controls the rotation speed of the second motor 131 to V3, increases the stirring speed of the two sets of sludge stirring rods 23, and speeds up the crushing speed of the sludge. The rotation speed of the fourth motor 151 is adjusted to X3, and the running time is Y1. The fourth motor 151 drives the two sets of sludge pressing rollers 24 to rotate quickly, pressing the sludge flat and then letting it fall downwards onto the first conveyor belt 31 for conveying. At this time, the equipment program starts timing. When the running time of the fourth motor 151 reaches Y1, the equipment program controls the fourth motor 151 to stop, and the stopping time is Y0. At this time, the two sets of sludge stirring rods 23 continue to rotate to prevent the sludge from accumulating in the feed box 11 and drying and clumping due to a long period of stopping, thus avoiding damage to the device and reducing the maintenance cost of the factory. When the stopping time is up, the equipment program controls the above operation to repeat.
[0052] By using two sets of sludge stirring rods 23, two sets of sludge pressing rollers 24, two sets of speed sensors 22, and the equipment program in conjunction with these components, the moisture content of the batch of sludge can be determined based on the different stirring speeds. The pressing speed and feeding time can be adjusted according to the moisture content. When the sludge has a high moisture content, stirring is slow to prevent mud and water from splashing into the production workshop and affecting the workshop environment. Simultaneously, the sludge is slowly pressed and the running time is increased to increase the sludge feeding amount. This increases output while preventing continuous feeding that could cause sludge to flow everywhere. When the sludge has a low moisture content, stirring is rapid to prevent the sludge from accumulating in the feed box 11 and drying and clumping due to prolonged inactivity. Simultaneously, the sludge is quickly pressed and the running time is reduced to decrease the sludge feeding amount, ensuring the sludge is completely dried and preventing surface drying and internal dampness, thus reducing rework costs for the factory.
[0053] Sludge drying process:
[0054] During the above operations, the equipment program controls the sludge drying process. The program sets the rotation speed of the third motor 141 to M1, M2, and M3, with M1 being the minimum and M3 the maximum. This can be adjusted according to specific needs. When the program detects that the rotation speed of the second motor 131 is V1, it determines that the sludge has a high water content. The program then adjusts the rotation speed of the third motor 141 to M1. The third motor 141 drives the first conveyor belt 31 to rotate slowly, conveying the flattened sludge backward. Simultaneously, the program controls the first electric valve 252 to open, and the heating fan 25 distributes hot air. After flowing into the first ventilation pipe 251, it is sprayed downward to perform secondary drying on the sludge conveyed on the first conveyor belt 31, thereby improving the drying efficiency and ensuring that the sludge can be completely dried. During the drying process, the heat-conducting rod 35 conducts heat to the sludge shovel 351 to heat it, so that it can quickly shovel off the sludge blocks and turn them over, thereby improving the sludge drying efficiency. Then, the equipment program controls the start of the cooler 36, and the fan 343 blows air into the cooler box 34. The cold air is then blown out from the second ventilation pipe 341 and the third ventilation pipe 342 to perform low-temperature drying on the sludge conveyed on the first conveyor belt 31.
[0055] When the equipment program detects that the speed of the second motor 131 is V2, the equipment program determines that the sludge moisture content is normal. The equipment program controls the speed of the third motor 141 to be adjusted to M2. The third motor 141 drives the first conveyor belt 31 to rotate, so that the flattened sludge is conveyed backward. At the same time, the equipment program controls the first electric valve 252 to close, and the heating fan 25 sprays hot air downward to dry the sludge conveyed on the first conveyor belt 31, improves the drying efficiency, and ensures that the sludge can be completely dried. Then, the equipment program controls the refrigerator 36 to start. After the fan 343 blows air into the refrigeration box 34, the cold air blows out from the second ventilation pipe 341 and the third ventilation pipe 342 to perform low-temperature drying operation on the sludge conveyed on the first conveyor belt 31.
[0056] When the equipment program detects that the speed of the second motor 131 is V3, the equipment program determines that the sludge has low water content. The equipment program controls the speed of the third motor 141 to be adjusted to M3. The third motor 141 drives the first conveyor belt 31 to rotate quickly, so that the flattened sludge is conveyed backward. At the same time, the equipment program controls the first electric valve 252 to open. The heating fan 25 diverts hot air to the first ventilation pipe 251 and sprays it downward to perform secondary drying on the sludge conveyed on the first conveyor belt 31, improves the drying efficiency, and ensures that the sludge can be completely dried. During the drying process, the heat-conducting rod 35 conducts heat to the sludge shovel 351 to heat it, so that it can quickly shovel off the sludge blocks and turn them over, improving the sludge drying efficiency. Then the equipment program controls the refrigerator 36 to start. The fan 343 blows air into the refrigeration box 34, and the cold air blows out from the second ventilation pipe 341 and the third ventilation pipe 342 to perform low-temperature drying operation on the sludge conveyed on the first conveyor belt 31.
[0057] By coordinating the use of the third motor 141, the first electric valve 252, the cooler 36, and the equipment program, the feeding speed can be adjusted according to the different moisture contents of the sludge. When the sludge has a high moisture content, the feeding speed is reduced to prevent the mud and water from flowing everywhere due to excessive speed. When the sludge has a low moisture content, the feeding speed is increased to improve production efficiency. When the sludge has a high moisture content, the hot air is diverted and then used for secondary drying to improve the sludge drying efficiency. At the same time, the heat is used again to heat the sludge shovel blade 351, which can quickly shovel off the sludge and turn it over to avoid the phenomenon of the sludge surface drying while the inside is moist. In conjunction with low-temperature drying operation, the sludge is dried more thoroughly, reducing the factory's rework costs.
