[0002] Oil refining generally refers to petroleum refining. Originally, oil was separated by distillation to produce kerosene, gasoline, diesel and other fuel oils suitable for use in internal combustion engines, with petroleum gas and residual oil as by-products; components heavier than fuel oil were chemically converted into fuel oils through processes such as thermal cracking and catalytic cracking, and some of these fuel oils were refined by processes such as hydrogenation. The heaviest vacuum residue oil is produced by solvent deasphalting to produce deasphalted oil and petroleum asphalt, or heavy oil is cracked into fuel oil components through delayed coking, and petroleum coke is produced as a by-product. However, the wastewater remaining in the oil refining process contains a large amount of sulfur and other elements. The sulfur-containing wastewater produced by oil refining is difficult to directly reuse in the next oil refining. The sulfur-containing wastewater needs to be distilled. In the laboratory, it is difficult to control the temperature and pressure during the distillation of sulfur-containing wastewater, which is not convenient for accurate control of the data of the distillation experiment of sulfur-containing wastewater. At the same time, the water vapor condensation efficiency is low, which easily causes the problem of waste caused by water vapor discharge. Summary of the invention

Both the temperature sensor 6 and the pressure sensor 7 are installed on the distillation flask 3 to detect the temperature and pressure in the distillation flask 3 in real time.
[0021] The lower end of the capillary pressure reducing tube 9 extends into the bottom of the distillation flask 3. When distillation is performed, the lower end of the capillary pressure reducing tube 9 is located below the liquid level.
[0022] An air guide tube 8 is provided on one side of the distillation flask 3, the lower end of which is bent toward the distillation flask 3 and connected to the upper part of the distillation flask 3, and a thermometer 11 is provided on the top of the distillation flask 3 for real-time detection of the temperature of the steam in the air guide tube 8. An electromagnetic valve 10 is provided between the air guide tube 8 and the distillation flask 3 for controlling the speed and on-off of the steam discharge.
[0023] A second support rod 15 is also provided on the upper side of the conditioning and power generation base plate 1. The second support rod 15 is vertically arranged. Two second support rods 15 are arranged at intervals. A clamp 16 is provided on each second support rod 15. The condenser 12 is arranged between the two second support rods 15. The two clamps 16 clamp the two sides of the condenser 12 respectively to achieve the fastening of the condenser 12. The condenser 12 is gradually inclined downward along the side away from the distillation flask 3. A water storage tank 17 is provided on the upper side of the solar power generation base plate 1 on the side of the condenser 12 away from the distillation flask 3 for storing condensed water.
[0024] The condenser 12 includes a shell, a condenser tube 21 and a connecting tube 22. The connecting tube 22 has two connecting tubes 22 arranged at both ends, and each connecting tube 22 seals both ends of the shell. The condenser tube 21 is arranged in the shell, and the condenser tube 21 is located between the two connecting tubes 22. The two ends of the condenser tube 21 are respectively connected to the connecting tube 22 on the corresponding side. The connecting tube 22 near the distillation flask 3 is connected to the air inlet pipe 13, and the air inlet pipe 13 is connected to the side of the air guide pipe 8. The connecting tube 22 near the water storage tank 17 is connected to the liquid outlet pipe 14, and the liquid outlet pipe 14 is connected to the water storage tank 17.
[0025] A water outlet pipe 20 is connected to the upper side of the housing near the distillation flask 3, and a water inlet pipe 19 is connected to the lower side of the housing near the water storage tank 17, so that the housing is filled with cooling water. An exhaust pipe 18 is connected to the top of the water storage tank 17.
[0026] The temperature sensor 6 and the pressure sensor 7 installed on the surface of the distillation flask 3 make it convenient for the temperature sensor 6 to detect the temperature of the liquid inside the distillation flask 3, and the pressure sensor 7 to detect the pressure inside the distillation flask 3, thereby increasing the purpose of controlling the temperature and pressure during the experiment. The solar power generation base plate 1 is used as the support plate, which is convenient for the solar power generation base plate 1 to store electric energy after being exposed to the sun, thereby reducing the loss of electric energy. The solenoid valve 10 installed on the air duct 8 is convenient for adjusting the opening and closing degree of the solenoid valve 10 and adjusting the pressure inside the distillation flask 3. The connecting pipe 22 and the condensing pipe 21 installed in the condenser 12 make it convenient for the water vapor inside the connecting pipe 22 to contact and liquefy with the condensed water inside the condenser 12, thereby achieving the purpose of low-temperature and low-pressure distillation of sulfur-containing wastewater. At the same time, depending on whether the capillary pressure reducing tube 9 is installed, it is possible to choose to distill under normal pressure or low pressure conditions.
[0027] The condenser tube 21 is a zigzag tubular component, and the bending angle of the condenser tube 21 is 30 degrees. Fifteen condenser tubes 21 are installed between the two connecting tubes 22 at equal intervals.
[0028] The solar power generation bottom plate 1 is a rectangular plate-shaped member. The angle between the condenser 12 and the solar power generation bottom plate 1 is 40°.
[0029] A atmospheric and vacuum distillation process comprises the following steps: Step S1, heating the sulfur-containing wastewater in the distillation flask 3 and adding an inert liquid.
[0030] The distillation preparation includes exposing the solar power generation base plate 1 to the sun to store electric energy, selecting an appropriate amount of sulfur-containing waste water from refinery gas for standby use, and an appropriate amount of condensed water for standby use.
[0031] The parameters are set as follows: the temperature of the liquid inside the distillation flask 3 is 10-30°C, and the pressure inside the distillation flask 3 is 0.4-0.8kPa. When the temperature sensor 6 detects that the temperature of the liquid inside the distillation flask 3 is lower than 10°C, the electric furnace 2 increases the power; when the temperature of the liquid inside the distillation flask 3 is higher than 30°C, the electric furnace 2 reduces the power; when the pressure sensor 7 detects that the pressure inside the distillation flask 3 is higher than 0.8kPa, the opening degree of the solenoid valve 10 is increased; when the pressure inside the distillation flask 3 is lower than 0.4kPa, the opening degree of the solenoid valve 10 is reduced.
[0032] Step S2, heating the distillation flask 3, detecting the temperature of the distillation flask 3 in real time through the temperature sensor 6, detecting the pressure inside the distillation flask 3 in real time through the pressure sensor 7, and maintaining a negative pressure in the distillation flask 3 through the capillary pressure reducing tube 9 extending into the distillation flask 3.
[0033] In the distillation operation, a proper amount of sulfur-containing wastewater is injected into the distillation flask 3, and the electric furnace 2 is powered by the solar power generation bottom plate 1 to heat the distillation flask 3. The liquid inside the distillation flask 3 rises under the action of the capillary pressure reducing tube 9, so that a negative pressure is formed in the distillation flask 3. After the liquid inside the distillation flask 3 evaporates, it enters the air inlet pipe 13 through the air guide pipe 8. The solenoid valve 10 adjusts the flow rate of the gas by adjusting the opening and closing degree. The thermometer 11 is used to detect the temperature of the gas. The condensed water is injected into the condenser 12 through the water inlet pipe 19 and then discharged from the water outlet pipe 20, while the steam inside the air inlet pipe 13 enters the condenser 12 and liquefies. The liquefied water is gathered into the water storage tank 17 through the liquid outlet pipe 14, and part of the gas is discharged through the exhaust pipe 18; Step S3, condensing the steam distilled from the distillation flask 3 through the condenser 12, and collecting the condensate.
[0034] After the distillation is finished, the power supply of the electric furnace 2 and the solar power generation base plate 1 is disconnected, and the electric furnace 2 is moved away. The air duct 8 on the upper end of the distillation flask 3 is removed, and the air duct 8 is separated from the air inlet pipe 13, and the liquid outlet pipe 14 is separated from the water storage tank 17, and the distillation flask 3 is cleaned.
[0035] Specifically, the distillation operation adopts the staged distillation method, in which the liquid is first heated at a low temperature to produce a small amount of vapor, and then the temperature is increased in stages to produce more vapor, and finally the separated substances are obtained, thereby effectively controlling the liquid mixing ratio and improving the separation effect.
[0036] Specifically, an inert liquid is added during the distillation operation. The inert liquid is a fluorine-containing special reagent fluorocarbon inert liquid. The molecule does not contain chlorine or hydrogen atoms. It is a saturated organic fluorine compound containing 1-15 carbon atoms composed of fluorine, carbon or oxygen and nitrogen atoms. It has unique properties such as chemical inertness, thermal conductivity, low toxicity, non-flammability, high electrical resistance, low surface tension and low thermal conductivity.

However, any simple modification, equivalent change and modification made to the above embodiment according to the technical essence of the present invention without departing from the technical solution of the present invention still belongs to the protection scope of the technical solution of the present invention.
