Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] The invention belongs to the field of gypsum rain prevention and control, and specifically relates to a device and a system for intercepting liquid water entrained in chimney flue gas by utilizing the mechanical condensation principle. Background Art
[0002] "Gypsum rain" / "chimney rain" is a common associated flue gas "pollution" problem in the wet flue gas desulfurization process. It refers to the fact that under special circumstances, when the flue gas after wet flue gas desulfurization is discharged through the chimney, "rainfall" will occur near the chimney. Some rainfall mixed with wet flue gas desulfurization slurry is called "gypsum rain", and some rainfall without slurry is called "chimney rain". It contains two meanings: "gypsum" and "rain". "Gypsum" refers to gypsum slurry; "rainfall" refers to condensate droplets formed by saturated water in clean flue gas.
[0003] "Gypsum" is formed by the gypsum slurry entrained in the flue gas falling to the ground with the flue gas discharge. The gypsum slurry in the clean flue gas of the desulfurization device mainly comes from the fine droplets atomized by the nozzle of the spray layer of the absorption tower. The diameter of the droplets of gypsum slurry after atomization by the nozzle is generally 920 μm, and a small amount of about 15 μm will be produced after collision. After passing through the demister, 99.99% of the droplets not less than 22 μm will generally be removed, and 50% of the droplets of 15-22 μm can also be removed. The droplets below 15 μm cannot be intercepted, so it is inevitable that there is a certain amount of gypsum slurry in the clean flue gas. However, if the flow rate of the flue gas at the demister exceeds the design value, the effect of the demister will be greatly reduced or even fail. The demister will also have a secondary carryover phenomenon under high-speed flue gas, and a large amount of gypsum slurry will be brought into the chimney with the flue gas, forming a clean flue gas slurry phenomenon. The formation of "gypsum" is related to many factors, mainly including the demisting effect of the demister, the design of the absorption tower, and its operation.
[0004] "Rain" is the condensate in the clean flue gas. The direct reason for its formation is that in addition to saturated water vapor, the flue gas also carries droplets that have not been removed by the demister. The moisture in the flue gas is mainly composed of droplets escaping from the demister. The indirect reason for its formation is the adiabatic expansion of saturated flue gas and the condensate formed by contact with the flue and chimney inner wall. When saturated wet flue gas rises in the chimney, the flue gas pressure decreases. After adiabatic expansion, the flue gas is cooled and forms very fine droplets (diameter <1 μm). Adiabatic expansion produces the largest number of droplets in the chimney. Inside the chimney, due to the effect of inertia, the larger water droplets entrained by the flue gas hit the flue and chimney walls, combine with the condensate on the wall, and are brought back into the flue gas under the influence of airflow. The diameter of these re-entrained droplets is usually 100-500 μm, and their number depends on the characteristics of the wall and the flue gas flow rate. Rough walls and higher flue gas flow rates will increase the amount of entrained droplets [3]. Another reason for the formation of "rain" is the influence of environmental factors. Usually, low ambient temperature and low air pressure will cause the appearance of "rain". The temperature of flue gas after desulfurization is usually around 50 ℃. Compared with the direct discharge of the original flue gas without desulfurization, the clean flue gas after desulfurization is relatively poor in lifting height and diffusion capacity. Therefore, when the flue gas after desulfurization is discharged from the chimney, due to the large difference between the flue gas temperature and the ambient temperature, the flue gas has no time to diffuse, and the saturated water in the flue gas becomes supersaturated when it is cooled, and finally becomes condensed liquid and falls to the ground to form "rain". The greater the difference between the flue gas discharge temperature and the ambient temperature, the easier it is to form "rain".
[0005] Whether it is "gypsum" or "rain", it will fall to the ground in the low temperature environment in winter and the low pressure and high humidity environment in the coastal area, bringing adverse effects to the production and life near the chimney. The treatment of gypsum rain and chimney rain is an issue that the environmental protection industry should pay attention to and properly solve. Summary of the invention
[0006] In order to solve the gypsum rain / chimney rain problem caused by the wet flue gas desulfurization system, and solve and reduce the impact of the "water falling" phenomenon associated with the chimney on the surrounding production and life, the present invention provides a chimney water removal device installed inside the chimney. Through the principle of multi-layer mechanical diversion, the flue gas in the chimney is layered and guided to collide, so that the droplets in the chimney that cannot fall naturally are condensed and agglomerated to form larger droplets, which fall from the inside of the chimney under the action of their own weight. In addition, the present invention also specially designs a hydrophobic device, which can collect the liquid intercepted by the water removal device and remove it from the outside of the chimney.
[0007] The present invention provides a gypsum rain prevention and control device and system, which is characterized in that it includes a primary wheel rim, a secondary wheel rim, a tertiary wheel rim, a fourth wheel rim, a fifth wheel rim, a primary inward rotating blade, a primary outward rotating blade, a secondary inward rotating blade, a secondary outward rotating blade, and a center blind plate. The above structures together constitute a water removal device unit.
[0008] Furthermore, the water removal device is installed in the wet desulfurization absorption tower and the chimney at the rear of the clean flue.
[0009] Furthermore, the water removal device is installed at the upper part of the chimney inner tube, and the lower part of the chimney inner tube is equipped with an arc bottom plate, a drain port, and a water pipe to discharge the intercepted gypsum rain out of the system.
[0010] Furthermore, the dewatering device is a multi-layer circular fixed impeller structure with a central blind plate, wherein the diameters of the first-stage rim, the second-stage rim, the third-stage rim, the fourth-stage rim and the fifth-stage rim are gradually reduced.
[0011] Further, the first-stage inner rotating blade is a clockwise, circumferentially uniform, centrally symmetrical n-stage blade with an α° inclination angle, wherein 1°<α<90°, n≥3. It is installed between the first-stage rim and the second-stage rim, and the inner and outer sides of the blade are fully welded to the rim.
[0012] Furthermore, the first-stage outward rotating blade is a counterclockwise, circumferentially evenly distributed, centrally symmetrical N-stage blade with a β° inclination angle, wherein 1°<β<90°, N≥3. It is installed between the second-stage rim and the third-stage rim, and the inner and outer sides of the blade are fully welded to the rim.
[0013] Furthermore, the secondary inward rotating blade is a clockwise, circumferentially evenly distributed, centrally symmetrical n-stage blade with an α° inclination angle, wherein 1°<α<90°, n≥3. It is installed between the third-stage rim and the fourth-stage rim, and the inner and outer sides of the blade are fully welded to the rim.
[0014] Further, the secondary external rotating blade is a counterclockwise, circumferentially evenly distributed, centrally symmetrical N-stage blade with a β° inclination angle, wherein 1°<β<90°, N≥3. It is installed between the fourth-stage rim and the fifth-stage rim, and the inner and outer sides of the blade are fully welded to the rim.
[0015] The beneficial effects of the present invention are: 1. Droplet graded diversion, collision and coagulation. The specially designed multi-stage impeller structure of the present invention gradedly diverts the flue gas at the chimney outlet, and the directions of the two adjacent stages of flue gas diversion are different, resulting in mechanical collision when the subsequent flue gas converges. During the collision process, the droplets mixed in the flue gas will break through the surface tension of the liquid film and coagulate into large droplets with larger particle size and mass. The large droplets will fall naturally under the action of their own weight to avoid the phenomenon that after the small droplets are discharged from the chimney with the flue gas, they will continue to coagulate and grow due to insufficient supporting force due to the sudden drop in flow velocity and the decrease in temperature, and then fall to the vicinity of the chimney.
[0016] 2. The impeller wall intercepts condensation and crushing. In the process of guiding the flue gas, the porosity of the present invention is greater than 95% for each spatial section of the flue gas passing through the dehydration device, and the sacrificed porosity is only the sum of the impeller thickness and the rim thickness in each section. However, in the top view, the equipment covers the flue gas comprehensively, that is, all flue gases will be diverted when passing through the dehydration device. The advantage is that when passing through the impeller, the droplets mixed in the flue gas are more likely to contact and collide with the blades due to their higher density than the flue gas and greater inertial force. In addition, because the flue gas flow rate in the chimney design is very fast, usually exceeding 15m / s, at such a flow rate, the droplets contact and collide with the impeller, which can easily break through the surface tension of the droplet film, and the droplets are broken and condensed, and are forcibly gathered into a flow by the impeller. The other part of the broken droplets are more easily carried away by the wind or evaporated naturally after the flue gas is discharged from the chimney, and will not fall into chimney rain.
[0017] 3. Simple design, easy installation and maintenance-free. In terms of core structure, this gypsum rain prevention device is only composed of rough circular wheels and blades. In order to control the resistance, the gaps between different structural blocks are large, which is not easy to hide dirt. In addition, the relative humidity of the flue gas after wet desulfurization is 100%, and it is rich in liquid water. In addition, the chimney flue gas has a fast flow rate, and the flue gas rich in liquid water flushes the structure for a long time, and there is no flushing maintenance work.

[0019] DETAILED DESCRIPTION
[0020] In order to make the objectives, technical solutions and advantages of the present invention more clear, the embodiments of the present invention will be described in further detail below.
[0021] like Figure 1As shown, an embodiment of the present invention provides a gypsum rain prevention and control device and system, including a primary rim 1, a secondary rim 2, a tertiary rim 3, a quaternary rim 4, a quintuple rim 5, a primary inward rotating blade 6, a primary outward rotating blade 7, a secondary inward rotating blade 8, a secondary outward rotating blade 9, and a center blind plate 10, and the above structures together constitute a dewatering device 11 unit. The dewatering device 11 is a multi-layer circular fixed impeller-shaped structure, and a center blind plate 10 is provided. Among them, the primary rim 1, the secondary rim 2, the tertiary rim 3, the quaternary rim 4, and the quintuple rim 5 are of the same height, all of which are 500mm~1000mm, and the diameter is gradually reduced. The primary inward rotating blade 6 is a clockwise, circumferentially evenly distributed, centrally symmetrical multi-stage blade with a certain inclination angle (usually designed to be 45°~60°) (the number of blades is usually designed to be 12~30). It is installed between the primary rim 1 and the secondary rim 2, and the inner and outer sides of the blades are fully welded to the rim. The first-stage external rotating blade 7 is a counterclockwise, circumferentially evenly distributed, centrally symmetrical multi-stage blade with a certain tilt angle (usually designed to be 45°~60°) (the number of blades is usually designed to be 12~30). It is installed between the second-stage rim 2 and the third-stage rim 3, and the inner and outer sides of the blades are fully welded to the rim. The second-stage internal rotating blade 8 is a clockwise, circumferentially evenly distributed, centrally symmetrical multi-stage blade with a certain tilt angle (usually designed to be 45°~60°) (the number of blades is usually designed to be 12~30). It is installed between the third-stage rim 3 and the fourth-stage rim 4, and the inner and outer sides of the blades are fully welded to the rim. The second-stage external rotating blade 9 is a counterclockwise, circumferentially evenly distributed, centrally symmetrical multi-stage blade with a certain tilt angle (usually designed to be 45°~60°) (the number of blades is usually designed to be 12~30). It is installed between the fourth-stage rim 4 and the fifth-stage rim 5, and the inner and outer sides of the blades are fully welded to the rim.
[0022] like Figure 2 As shown, the water removal device 11 is installed in the chimney 14 at the rear of the wet flue gas absorption tower 12 and the clean flue 13. The water removal device 11 is installed on the upper part of the chimney inner tube 15, and the distance from the chimney outlet is generally designed to be 10m~15m, because the flue gas in the chimney has been fully cooled and is closer to the temperature of the chimney outlet, and the condensed water droplets in the flue gas are more abundant. At the same time, the lower part of the chimney inner tube 15 is equipped with an arc bottom plate 16, a drain port 17, and a water pipe 18. The water-containing part of the flue gas intercepted by the water removal device 11 naturally falls into the arc bottom plate 16, and a part flows along the wall of the chimney inner tube 15 to the arc bottom plate, and finally discharged from the system from the drain port 17 and the drain pipe 18. Example
[0023] The gypsum rain prevention and control device is installed in the chimney inner tube 15 behind the limestone-gypsum wet desulfurization absorption tower 12 of the 300MW coal-fired power plant, wherein the water removal device 11 has the same diameter as the chimney inner tube, both of which are 5m. The water removal device is 10m high from the top of the chimney inner tube, and the water removal device 11 body is 500mm high. It is divided into five rims, and the diameter of each rim gradually decreases, wherein the first-level rim 1 has a diameter of 5m, the second-level rim 2 has a diameter of 4m, the third-level rim has a diameter of 3m, the fourth-level rim has a diameter of 2m, and the fifth-level rim has a diameter of 1m. There are 24 first-level inward rotating blades 6, first-level outward rotating blades 7, second-level inward rotating blades 8, and second-level outward rotating blades 9 between the five-level rims, and the angles with the vertical direction are all 45°, and they are evenly fixed between the rims in a central symmetric manner. Among them, the first-level inward rotating blades 6 and the second-level inward rotating blades 8 are arranged clockwise, and the first-level outward rotating blades 7 and the second-level outward rotating blades 9 are arranged counterclockwise.
[0024] In this embodiment, the flue gas at the outlet of the wet flue gas absorption tower 12 is saturated flue gas and is sandwiched with a small amount of gypsum slurry. The flue gas enters the chimney 14 through the clean flue 13. It flows upward in the chimney inner tube 15 and passes through the dewatering device 11. When passing through the dewatering device 11, the flue gas is cut into four flue gas flow layers with diameters from large to small by the first-level wheel rim 1, the second-level wheel rim 2, the third-level wheel rim 3, the fourth-level wheel rim 4, and the fifth-level wheel rim 5 in annular layers. These four flue gas flow layers pass through four impeller groups composed of 24 first-level inner rotating blades 6, 24 first-level outer rotating blades 7, 24 second-level inner rotating blades 8, and 24 second-level outer rotating blades 9. At the same time, some of the droplets entrained in the flue gas will directly collide with the blades, be condensed and intercepted, converge and become larger, and then flow into the arc bottom plate 16 under the action of gravity. The flue gas that is not intercepted by the blades continues to ascend, and the flue gas rotates clockwise and counterclockwise at intervals when passing through the impeller group. The flue gas containing liquid droplets rotating in different directions will diffuse naturally after passing through the main structure of the water removal device 11. During diffusion, the two adjacent layers of flue gas will collide due to the inconsistent rotation directions. The collision process causes the droplets contained in the flue gas to break through the surface tension and condense and agglomerate, and finally fall to the arc bottom plate 16 and discharge from the system through the drain port 17 and the drain pipe 18.
