Description

Technical Field

[0001] The invention relates to the technical field of coking, in particular to a high-performance spray-type saturator. Background Art

[0002] When the coke oven processes coal, a large amount of gas will be generated. Since the gas contains a large amount of harmful gases, it cannot be directly discharged into the air, so the gas needs to be processed. Bubble saturators and spray saturators are usually used for gas processing. Bubble saturators need to regularly add a large amount of acid and water to the inside, which destroys the conditions for crystallization. In addition, the crystals stay at the bottom of the saturator for a short time, resulting in small crystal particles, which cannot meet normal needs; while the spray saturator is made of stainless steel, has a long service life, integrates pickling absorption, crystallization, acid removal, and evaporation, and has the advantages of small gas system resistance and large crystal particles.

[0003] At present, the process of ammonia recovery by spray saturator is the preferred process for large and medium-sized steel enterprises or independent coking plants in China. This process has the advantages of high equipment integration, high automation level, simple and convenient operation, etc. However, some enterprises have reported that the saturator has encountered problems such as increased gas resistance, large amount of liquid entrained at the gas outlet, and unqualified gas ammonia content index during production, which has affected the normal production of the enterprise.

[0017] 1. The present invention is provided with a spiral deacidifier, the lower part of which is in the absorption chamber, and the upper part is higher than the absorption chamber. The spiral deacidifier is coaxially arranged with the absorption chamber and the crystallization chamber. The coke oven gas enters the saturator absorption chamber from the gas inlet, and fully contacts with the sprayed mother liquor in the absorption chamber in countercurrent to remove ammonia in the gas. Then the gas enters the spiral deacidifier. Under the action of the spiral structure, most of the droplets in the gas are removed. The present invention enables better separation of gas and liquid, while reducing airflow resistance.

[0018] 2. The crystal extraction tubes of the present invention are arranged in a high and low manner so as to extract crystal particles at different positions. A crystal extraction tube cleaning port is provided on each crystal extraction tube to prevent crystals from being blocked in the extraction tube.

[0019] 3.

At the same time, the airflow rotates directly to the bottom of the tangential inlet of the deacidifier, avoiding the collision of the airflow after one rotation with the initial airflow, thereby reducing the airflow resistance.

[0023] 7. The spiral deacidifier of the present invention is provided with a gas outlet pipe at the top and a cross rib plate at the bottom to prevent the airflow from sucking liquid into the gas outlet when rotating to the liquid surface.

[0039] like Figure 1-6 As shown, a high-performance spray-type saturator has a main structure of a vertical container, the lower part of the container is a crystallization chamber 2, and the upper part is an absorption chamber 3. The absorption chamber 3 is connected to the crystallization chamber 2 through an inner cone section 5 and a downcomer 6.

[0040] The invention also includes a skirt seat 1, on which the container is fixed, and the skirt seat 1 is used to support the container. The civil engineering ring beam required for the original saturator ring seat may cause the pipeline to collide with the ring beam. The present invention adopts a skirt seat support structure, eliminates the civil engineering ring beam required for the original saturator ring seat, and saves investment.

[0041] It also includes a spiral deacidifier 4 , the lower part of which is located in the absorption chamber 3 , and the upper part of which is higher than the absorption chamber 3 . The spiral deacidifier 4 is coaxially arranged with the absorption chamber 3 and the crystallization chamber 2 .

[0042] A plurality of crystal extraction pipes 7 are arranged at the bottom of the crystallization chamber 2. The crystal extraction pipes 7 are arranged in a high and a low manner so as to extract crystal particles at different positions.

[0043] like Figure 5 As shown, the crystal extraction pipe 7 is L-shaped, consisting of a horizontal pipe and a vertical pipe. The horizontal pipe is fixed to the side wall of the bottom of the crystallization chamber, and the end of the horizontal pipe extends out of the container. The cleaning port 20 of the crystal extraction pipe is fixed to the end of the horizontal pipe and is located outside the container. Liquid is injected through the cleaning port 20 of the crystal extraction pipe to rinse the crystal extraction pipe 7 to prevent crystal blockage in the extraction pipe. A crystal extraction cage 8 is provided at the bottom of the vertical pipe. The crystal extraction cage 8 is provided with a plurality of circular openings and arranged in a staggered manner to prevent blockage of the crystal extraction port and extraction of slender particles.

[0044] The inner cone section 5 is provided with a small hole 21, which connects the crystallization chamber 2 and the absorption chamber 3, and is used to discharge the gas in the crystallization chamber 2. The outer cone section 9 of the crystallization chamber is provided with a cone cleaning port 10 connected to the inner cone section small hole 21, and the small hole 21 is cleaned regularly to prevent the small hole 21 from being blocked by crystals.

[0045] The absorption chamber 3 is divided into a front chamber, a rear chamber and an annular spraying chamber. Each chamber is equipped with a number of mother liquid spraying devices 11 for spraying the circulating mother liquid to absorb the ammonia in the coal gas. The lower part of the absorption chamber 3 is also provided with a full flow port 12 to allow the mother liquid to flow to the full flow tank. The full flow port 12 is arranged in an inclined downward manner to facilitate the discharge of crystals. The full flow port 12 adopts a square-to-circular structure to meet the full flow requirements and facilitate the connection of process pipes. Figure 6 As shown, a full flow mouth water flushing port 13 is arranged above the full flow mouth square outlet to regularly clean the crystals in the full flow mouth.

[0046] The rear chamber of the absorption chamber is also provided with a rear chamber water flushing port 14 for cleaning the crystals on the wall of the rear chamber.

[0047] like Figure 1 , 4 As shown, the spiral deacidifier 4 adopts a spiral ring plate 15 structure, and the spiral ring plate 15 rotates at a height equal to the length of the deacidifier air inlet 22 (the deacidifier gas inlet). Starting from the deacidifier tangential air inlet 22, the airflow is forced to rotate downward along the spiral ring plate, generating a greater centrifugal force and better separating the liquid. At the same time, the airflow rotates directly to the bottom of the deacidifier tangential air inlet 22, avoiding the collision of the airflow after one rotation with the initial airflow, thereby reducing the airflow resistance.

[0048] The spiral deacidifier 4 is provided with a gas outlet pipe 16 at the top and a cross rib plate 17 at the bottom to prevent the gas flow from sucking liquid into the gas outlet when the gas flow rotates to the liquid surface. The gas outlet pipe 16 is provided with a gas outlet pipe cleaning device 18 for cleaning the crystals in the gas outlet pipe.

[0049] The working principle and working process of the present invention are as follows:

[0050] During operation, the coke oven gas enters the absorption chamber 3 from the gas inlet pipe 19, and fully contacts the sprayed mother liquid in the annular absorption chamber in countercurrent, removing most of the ammonia in the gas. The gas enters the rear of the absorption chamber, and further removes the ammonia in the gas under the spraying of the mother liquid in the rear chamber, and then enters the spiral deacidifier 4. The gas is divided into two streams in the front chamber of the absorption chamber 3 and enters the annular chamber for spraying with the circulating mother liquid. The ammonia in the gas is absorbed by the sulfuric acid in the mother liquid to generate ammonium sulfate. The deammonified gas is combined into one stream and enters the rear chamber, and is sprayed with the mother liquid for the last time and enters the spiral deacidifier 4 to separate the acid mist entrained by the gas.

[0051] Most of the liquid droplets in the coal gas are removed by the spiral structure of the spiral deacidifier 4. When the coal gas enters the bottom of the deacidifier, the cross ribs 17 prevent the coal gas from entraining the mother liquid and entering the coal gas outlet.

[0052] The circulating mother liquor that has absorbed ammonia flows from the central downcomer 6 to the bottom of the lower section of the saturator, where the crystal nuclei move upward through the saturated mother liquor, causing the crystals to grow and causing particle classification. The crystals at the bottom are extracted through the crystal extraction pipe 7 and sent to the crystallization tank. The mother liquor overflowing from the full flow port 12 of the saturator flows into the full flow tank, and then is sent to the back chamber of the absorption chamber 3 of the saturator for spraying by a small mother liquor circulation pump.

[0053] The mother liquor outlet of the lower section of the saturator is continuously pumped out by the mother liquor circulation pump and sent to the annular chamber for circulation spraying after being heated by the mother liquor heater. Spraying and cleaning are performed regularly through the cone cleaning port 10, the full flow water flushing port 13, the rear chamber water flushing port 14, the gas outlet pipe cleaning device 18 and the crystal extraction pipe cleaning port 20 to eliminate the crystals attached to the wall and prevent crystal blockage.

[0054] The present invention can effectively solve the problems encountered by the saturator during production, such as increased gas resistance, large amount of entrained liquid at the gas outlet, and unqualified gas ammonia content index, thereby ensuring the normal production of the enterprise.

[0055] The above descriptions are only some specific implementation methods of the present invention, and the protection scope of the present invention is not limited thereto. Any technician familiar with the technical field can make equivalent replacements or changes according to the technical solutions and inventive concepts of the present invention within the technical scope disclosed by the present invention, and they should be covered by the protection scope of the present invention.
