Description

Technical Field

[0001] The invention relates to the technical field of high-pressure slurry solid-liquid separation, and in particular to a continuous high-strength gypsum slurry separation and drying system. Background Art

[0002] Desulfurization gypsum is a by-product of the flue gas desulfurization process in power plants and is widely used in mud products, fertilizers, ceramics and glass products, construction and soil improvement.

[0003] At present, the main way to recycle desulfurized gypsum is to prepare calcium sulfate hemihydrate. Calcium sulfate hemihydrate mainly includes α-type calcium sulfate hemihydrate and β-type calcium sulfate hemihydrate. Since β-type calcium sulfate hemihydrate has a higher porosity and a lower strength value, the economic benefits are poor. Therefore, the current resource utilization of desulfurized gypsum in this field is mainly to convert it into α-type calcium sulfate hemihydrate.

[0004] In the prior art, the subcritical hydrothermal method is mainly used to upgrade the desulfurized gypsum into high-value α-type hemihydrate calcium sulfate. However, since the product obtained by the subcritical hydrothermal method is a high-pressure slurry, the high-value α-type hemihydrate calcium sulfate needs to be subjected to solid-liquid separation treatment, resulting in the need to use subcritical hydrothermal equipment and separation devices for hydrothermal treatment and solid-liquid separation treatment, respectively, resulting in inconvenience in operation. Moreover, the centrifugal separation devices used in the solid-liquid separation treatment in the prior art mainly include static separation tanks and centrifuges, etc., but since the α-type hemihydrate gypsum must be operated at high temperature during the separation process, in order to avoid vaporization, it is necessary to maintain high-pressure operation. Some of the existing separation devices cannot maintain high-temperature and high-pressure operation, and the α-type hemihydrate gypsum is prone to sedimentation and hardening. The static separation device is also not suitable for the separation of α-type hemihydrate gypsum and cannot be operated continuously. The main separation technologies include sedimentation, filtration, ion exchange, etc., and the temperature of 60℃~90℃ needs to be maintained during the drying process to prevent the product from deteriorating. However, the existing equipment and methods cannot solve the problems of α-type hemihydrate gypsum deposition and deterioration, and cannot continuously achieve high-pressure and high-temperature separation of high-pressure slurry. Summary of the invention

[0005] In order to solve the above technical problems, the α-type hemihydrate gypsum slurry can be continuously separated under high temperature and high pressure conditions, so the present invention provides a continuous high-strength gypsum slurry separation and drying system. The continuous high-strength gypsum slurry separation and drying system of the present invention comprises a material preparation unit, a hydrothermal reaction unit, a solid-liquid separation unit, a pressure reduction feeding unit, a flash unit and a drying unit connected in series in sequence; the homogeneous reaction raw materials prepared by the material preparation unit produce high-pressure slurry after hydrothermal reaction in the hydrothermal reaction unit; the high-pressure slurry enters the solid-liquid separation unit, the pressure reduction feeding unit and the flash unit in sequence for step-by-step solid-liquid separation and then is dried in the drying unit to obtain α-type hemihydrate calcium sulfate; the liquid phase discharge ends of the solid-liquid separation unit, the flash unit and the drying unit are all connected to the material preparation unit, thereby avoiding the phase transition of the α-type hemihydrate calcium sulfate in the high-pressure slurry during the separation process, while improving the quality of the α-type hemihydrate calcium sulfate, it also realizes the recycling of the liquid phase components and reduces energy consumption.

[0006] A continuous high-strength gypsum slurry separation and drying system of the present invention is realized by the following technical scheme:

[0009] In the present invention, the feed end of the hydrothermal reaction unit is connected to the discharge end of the material preparation unit to receive the homogeneous reaction raw materials output from the material preparation unit, and the homogeneous reaction raw materials are subjected to a hydrothermal reaction in the hydrothermal reaction unit to achieve the hydrothermal dechlorination and quality improvement of the desulfurized gypsum to form α-type hemihydrate gypsum.

[0010] In the present invention, the feed end of the solid-liquid separation unit is connected to the discharge end of the hydrothermal reaction unit, so that the solid-liquid separation unit receives the high-pressure slurry output from the hydrothermal reaction unit, and then the solid-liquid separation unit performs preliminary separation of the high-pressure slurry to obtain preliminary separated dense phase slurry and liquid phase components. A pressure detection unit is provided on the solid-liquid separation unit to monitor the pressure change in the solid-liquid separation unit in real time through the pressure detection unit.

[0011] In the present invention, the power unit is used to provide separation power for the high-pressure slurry in the solid-liquid separation unit.

[0012] In the present invention, the feed end of the pressure reduction and feeding unit is connected to the thick phase slurry discharge end of the solid-liquid separation unit, and the pressure reduction and feeding unit is drivingly connected to the power unit, so that the pressure reduction and feeding unit receives the thick phase slurry after solid-liquid separation in the solid-liquid separation unit, and under the drive of the power unit, the thick phase slurry is transported and pressure-reduced, while maintaining the pressure in the solid-liquid separation unit.

[0013] In the present invention, the feed end of the flash evaporation unit is connected with the discharge end of the pressure reducing and feeding unit to receive the dense phase slurry output by the pressure reducing and feeding unit. On the basis of solid-liquid separation, the dense phase slurry is further subjected to flash evaporation separation treatment by the flash evaporation unit to further separate the liquid phase and the solid phase in the dense phase slurry, thereby improving the effect of solid-liquid separation.

[0014] In the present invention, the feed end of the drying unit is connected to the solid material discharge end of the flash unit to receive and dry the solid phase component output by the flash unit, and dry the solid phase component so that the free water content in the solid phase component is less than 3%.

[0015] In the present invention, the liquid phase discharge end of the solid-liquid separation unit, the liquid phase discharge end of the flash unit and the liquid phase discharge end of the drying unit are all connected to the liquid phase feed end of the material preparation unit through a liquid phase conveying pipeline to achieve the recycling of the liquid phase, thereby reducing the energy loss during the operation process.

In addition, the pressure detection unit is interlocked with the telescopic module to control the pressure in the solid-liquid separation unit. When the pressure in the solid-liquid separation unit detected by the pressure detection unit is too high, the telescopic module is controlled to contract through the drive motor to reduce the length of the pressure reduction and feeding unit used for pressure reduction, thereby slowing down the pressure reduction effect; when the pressure in the solid-liquid separation unit detected by the pressure detection unit is too low, the telescopic module is controlled to extend through the drive motor to increase the length of the pressure reduction and feeding unit to enhance the sealing.

And the feeding blade of the present invention is arranged inside the solid-liquid separation unit, which can prevent the material from being deposited and hardened in the tank body and causing blockage. And. The upper end of the feeding blade of the present invention is drivingly connected to the rotating shaft, and the pressure-reducing blade is coaxially arranged at the lower end of the feeding blade and is located in the pressure-reducing feeding pipeline, so that the feeding blade and the pressure-reducing blade can rotate with the rotation of the rotating shaft, so that the feeding blade can continuously discharge the material, and the pressure-reducing blade can control the output rate of the material, and can play a certain sealing role, so that the pressure reduction effect can be achieved by controlling the discharge speed, thereby improving the safety and reliability of the system operation.
