The vents 52 are all located on the side of the lower tower plate 42 away from the upper tower plate 41 of the same layer and are higher than the upper end of the upper drop pipe 44 of the lower tower plate 4; such a design can effectively collect and discharge the steam generated during the pre-condensation process, and at the same time use the waste heat of the steam to further heat the material, thereby improving the energy utilization efficiency.
[0051] Reference Figure 1 and Figure 2 In this embodiment, the upper cylinder 11 and the outer wall of the upper cylinder 11 are also provided with multiple temperature detectors 8 and pressure detectors 9 for detecting the temperature, air pressure and hydraulic pressure in the preheating chamber 14 and / or the precondensation chamber 13; the multiple temperature detectors 8 and pressure detectors 9 are all arranged at different heights. Such a design can detect the material temperature or gas temperature at different positions and stages through multiple temperature detectors 8, and detect the air pressure or hydraulic pressure at different positions through multiple pressure detectors 9, so that the reaction state of the material can be monitored more intuitively and in real time.
[0052] Preferably, the upper tray 41 and the lower tray 42 are provided with a plurality of bubble caps on one side for receiving the material, and these bubble caps can enhance the turbulence of the material and promote the mass transfer and heat transfer process. Specifically, the bubble caps can be made of stainless steel or ceramic. In addition, microporous nozzles can be added under the bubble caps to further stir the material by spraying gas or liquid to improve the reaction efficiency.
[0053] The implementation principle of Example 1 is: through reasonable design and efficient heat transfer methods, energy consumption is significantly reduced, heat transfer efficiency is improved, and good economic and environmental benefits are achieved. Specifically, the material first enters the preheating chamber 14 through the first feed pipe 115, and is heated by the coil heating device 3 in the preheating chamber 14; the heating medium in the first heating chamber 113 is evenly distributed through the spiral first guide plate 114, ensuring sufficient heat exchange between the heating medium and the first inner cylinder 111, thereby improving the preheating efficiency; the preheated material enters the precondensation chamber 13 through the first discharge pipe 116; in order to reduce heat loss during transmission, the first discharge pipe 116 adopts a double-layer structure, and the internal heating medium is effectively insulated by the first insulation chamber 1163; at the same time, the setting of the control valve 2 allows precise adjustment of the speed at which the material enters the precondensation chamber 13, ensuring the stable operation of the system. After the material enters the precondensation chamber 13, it descends step by step through the multi-layer tower tray 4; the material on each layer of the tower tray 4 first falls into the next layer of the tower tray 4 through the drop pipe 44, and then is redistributed through the first drop channel 43; this process not only ensures the uniform distribution of the material, but also promotes the mixing and reaction between the materials; during the entire precondensation process, the gas collecting pipe 5 not only collects the steam generated during the precondensation process, but also recycles this part of the steam through the coil heating device 3, further heating the material, and significantly improving the energy utilization rate; in addition, multiple temperature detectors 8 and pressure detectors 9 are distributed at different heights in the preheating chamber 14 and the precondensation chamber 13, which can monitor the status of the material in real time to ensure the efficiency and stability of the production process. Example 2
[0054] Reference Figure 3 The difference between the present embodiment 2 and the embodiment 1 is that: the blanking pipe 44 is provided with a spiral third guide plate 6 along its inner wall, and the third guide plate 6 divides the second blanking channel 51 into a spiral shape.
[0055] Preferably, an anti-scaling coating may be coated on the surface of the first guide plate 114 to reduce the occurrence of scaling and extend the service life.
[0056] The advantages of this embodiment 2 over embodiment 1 are that the material can flow downward along the spiral path under the action of the third guide plate 6, thereby increasing the residence time and heat exchange area of the material in the second material delivery channel 51 and improving the heating efficiency and uniformity of the material.
[0057] The above are all preferred embodiments of the present application, and the protection scope of the present application is not limited thereto. Therefore, any equivalent changes made according to the structure, shape, and principle of the present application should be included in the protection scope of the present application.
