Description

Technical Field

[0001] The invention relates to the technical field of solid catalyst feeding, in particular to a feeder suitable for solid catalyst and a feeding method thereof. Background Art

[0002] At present, the main gas phase polyethylene processes in China are divided into three processes: UCC's Unipol gas phase fluidized bed, BP's innovene gas phase fluidized bed, and Sinopec's GPE gas phase fluidized bed. The three processes use four different solid catalyst feeders. The four feeders all use a dry method to inject the solid catalyst into the reactor, and there are different problems in the production and application process. In the production process, the catalyst is the core of the entire polymerization reaction, and the catalyst feeder is the core patented equipment in the entire polyethylene process. The operation status of the feeder has a direct impact on the reactor of the device. The performance of the feeder determines whether the polyethylene device can operate for a long period of time.

[0003] At present, the solid feeders used in domestic devices have the disadvantages of unstable feeding (forced feeding), inaccurate metering, and pipeline blockage. The devices cannot operate for a long period of time, causing great economic losses to the devices.

[0004] For example, CN218590472U discloses a catalyst automatic delivery system, in which a conveying shell is fixedly connected to the top of the support leg, and a delivery assembly is arranged inside the conveying shell; the delivery assembly includes a motor, and the left outer surface of the conveying shell is fixedly connected to a mounting box, and the motor is fixedly connected to the outer surface of the conveying shell through the mounting box, and one end of the motor output shaft is fixedly connected to the transmission shaft, and the outer surface of the transmission shaft is fixedly connected to a spiral blade, and the inner wall of the conveying shell is fixedly connected to a fixed block, and the internal rotation of the fixed block is connected to a rotating block, and the end of the transmission shaft away from the motor is fixedly connected to the rotating block. The catalyst automatic delivery system, when the solid catalyst enters the interior of the storage barrel, drives the adjustment plate to move to the left by starting the electric push rod, and adjusts the amount of material to be discharged according to the needs, and then starts the motor to drive the transmission shaft to rotate inside the fixed block, so that the spiral blades deliver the solid catalyst to the discharge port for subsequent use.

[0005] Therefore, there is an urgent need for a feeder suitable for solid catalysts and a feeding method thereof that has stable feeding, accurate metering, and can avoid pipeline blockage problems. Summary of the invention

[0006] The purpose of the present invention is to overcome the defects of the above-mentioned prior art and provide a feeder suitable for solid catalysts and a feeding method thereof.

This design prevents the catalyst from remaining in the pipeline and prevents the catalyst from clogging the pipeline.

[0060] The flow rate of high-pressure nitrogen blowing is 20-50kg / h.

[0061] Example 2

[0062] This embodiment provides a feeder suitable for a solid catalyst, comprising:

[0063] The first unloading system from catalyst cylinder 1 to catalyst slurry tank 301 (D-3050) is mainly used to increase the pressure of solid catalyst cylinder 1 to 0.3-0.6MPa, release the pressure of slurry tank 301, and control the pressure at 30KPa. The solid catalyst is pressed from catalyst cylinder 1 to catalyst slurry tank 301 (D-3050) by nitrogen.

[0064] A certain amount of mineral oil is first added into the pulping tank 301, and the first agitator 302 is started, and the agitation is performed for at least 1 hour.

[0065] The second unloading system of the catalyst from the slurry tank 301 to the feed tank 401. When the material level of the catalyst feed tank 401 (D-3051) is low, the pressure of D-3050 is increased to 0.2-0.4MPa, and the pressure of D-3051 is set to 30Kpa to automatically open the process from D-3050 to D-3051, and the slurry catalyst after slurrying is pressed into D-3050.

[0066] The catalyst is transported into the reactor 5 by the delivery system. The catalyst is injected from the feed tank 401 into the reactor 5 through the feed pump by the control program. The catalyst passes through two parallel-connected slurry feed screw pumps 6 (one on and one on standby). The slurry feed screw pump 6 is frequency-controlled. The speed of the slurry feed screw pump 6 is controlled by the outlet flow meter. The speed of the slurry feed screw pump 6 can be set as needed to achieve the required flow rate.

[0067] The catalyst enters the injection valve group 7 after passing through the flow meter. When the pressure of the catalyst is greater than the pressure of the reactor 5, the injection valve group 7 is opened, and then the catalyst is purged by high-pressure nitrogen or flushed by high-pressure solvent into the reactor 5. The nitrogen or solvent flow must meet the design requirements. If the catalyst does not need to be injected into the reactor 5, the catalyst is returned to the D-3051 feeding tank 401 through the three-way valve for circulation.

[0068] The catalyst slurry tank 301 (D-3050) and catalyst feeding tank 401 (D-3051) are operated by returning the remaining material to the catalyst cylinder 1. The catalyst slurry tank 301 (D-3050) and catalyst feeding tank 401 (D-3051) are equipped with a three-way hand valve at the root. When the feeding system needs to be repaired or other circumstances require the cleaning of the catalyst inside the D-3050 and D-3051 tanks, the three-way hand valve at the root is rotated 90° to open the catalyst return process and return the remaining material to the catalyst cylinder 1.
