Description

Technical Field

[0001] The present application relates to the technical field of recovery of waste heat from smoke from a roasting furnace, and in particular to a system for utilizing waste heat from smoke from an alumina roasting furnace. Background Art

[0002] Alumina roasting is the last step in alumina production. Roasting refers to the process of removing the attached water and crystal water of aluminum hydroxide under high temperature conditions and completing the partial γ-Al 2 O 3 To α-Al 2 O 3 The process of converting aluminum oxide into aluminum oxide suitable for electrolytic aluminum. Alumina roasting is a strong endothermic reaction, and the energy consumption accounts for 13% to 16% of the total energy consumption of the entire alumina production. The main heat expenditure of the roasting furnace is as follows: the proportion of sensible heat taken away by the product alumina is about 10.53%, the proportion of heat taken away by wet flue gas is about 59.79%, of which the proportion of heat taken away by dry flue gas is 10.76%, and the proportion of heat taken away by water vapor in the flue gas is as high as 47.03%. The temperature of the exhausted wet flue gas is about 150~180℃, the water content of the flue gas is about 40%, and the waste heat of the flue gas has great utilization value.

[0003] At present, most of the waste heat utilization of flue gas from alumina roasting furnaces only utilizes the sensible heat of flue gas, which is used to heat the seed liquor, provide heating or domestic water. The total amount of latent heat in flue gas is about 4.5 times the sensible heat (calculation conditions: flue gas temperature 150℃, moisture content 40%), which is much larger than the sensible heat. Considering that the water vapor in the flue gas needs to be reduced to below the dew point when condensing, but H is easily precipitated in the low temperature section. 2 SO 4 , HCl and other acidic condensates, causing corrosion and perforation of the heat exchanger.

[0004] In summary, there is an urgent need for a flue gas waste heat recovery system that is efficient, reliable and economical. Summary of the invention

[0005] In order to solve the above problems, the present application provides an alumina roasting furnace flue gas waste heat utilization system.

[0006] The present application provides a system for utilizing waste heat from flue gas of an alumina roasting furnace, which adopts the following technical solution: A system for utilizing waste heat from flue gas of an alumina roasting furnace, comprising: A total heat exchanger, comprising a heat exchange tank body, a spray assembly and a sedimentation chamber arranged in the heat exchange tank body, wherein the inner wall of the heat exchange tank body is coated with glass flakes; the spray assembly comprises a spray head and a water spray plate arranged below the spray head, wherein a plurality of water spray holes are provided on the water spray plate, and a plurality of water spray plates are arranged at intervals in the vertical direction, wherein the bottom of the heat exchange tank body is connected to a smoke inlet channel, and the top of the heat exchange tank body is connected to a smoke exhaust channel; The plate heat exchanger comprises a heat exchanger body, a heat recovery pipe and a heat recovery inlet pipe connected to one side of the heat exchanger body, and a heat utilization pipe and a heat utilization inlet pipe connected to the other side of the heat exchanger body; The circulating water supply system is connected between the plate heat exchanger and the heat exchange tank body, and is used to drive the circulating water in the heat exchange tank body to flow through the plate heat exchanger and then flow to the spray head.

[0007] By adopting the above technical solutions, the full heat heat exchanger can effectively absorb the sensible heat and latent heat in the flue gas, significantly improving the waste heat recovery efficiency. Coating the inner wall of the heat exchange tank with glass flakes can prevent dew point corrosion and extend the service life of the equipment. Among them, the high-efficiency nozzles in the full heat heat exchanger can evenly spray water into fine droplets, significantly increase the contact area with the flue gas, and improve the efficiency of the initial heat and mass transfer; the design of the water spray plate further promotes the deep interaction between the circulating water and the flue gas, and enhances the secondary heat and mass transfer effect. The high-temperature circulating water obtained after absorbing the heat of the flue gas exchanges the heat to the outside through the plate heat exchanger for reasonable utilization, reducing the overall energy consumption. Greatly reduce the heat loss of flue gas emissions, while avoiding the waste of water resources, and improve the environmental protection and economy of the alumina roasting process.

[0009] By adopting the above technical solution, the outlet pipe guides the high-temperature circulating water at the bottom of the heat exchange tank to the heat recovery inlet pipe of the plate heat exchanger. The circulating water after heat exchange in the plate heat exchanger returns to the sprinkler head through the return pipe and finally flows back into the heat exchange tank. This process not only ensures the effective transfer and utilization of flue gas waste heat, but also improves the energy efficiency of the system. The role of the circulation pump further ensures the circulation fluidity of the circulating water, ensures the stability and continuity of the heat exchange, and thus significantly improves the heat recovery effect of the entire system.

The multiple heat absorption channels in the heat absorption tube increase the contact area between the flue gas and the heat exchange medium, and cooperate with the heat absorption fins in the heat absorption channel to make the heat transfer more sufficient. This design not only improves the absorption capacity of the sensible heat of the flue gas, but also effectively captures the latent heat of water vapor in the flue gas; when the water moves along the water spray plate and falls toward the bottom of the heat exchange tank, the water will pass through the heat absorption channel and absorb the heat on the heat exchange fins to achieve further heat absorption, thereby significantly improving the overall thermal energy utilization rate of the system.

On the other hand, it is convenient for the backwashing component to align each heat absorption channel in turn. The flushing head and cleaning nozzle in the backwashing component can effectively clean each heat absorption channel one by one, preventing blockage caused by dust accumulation after long-term use, thereby extending the service life of the equipment and maintaining stable waste heat recovery performance.

The bottom of the heat exchange tank body 11 is connected to a smoke inlet channel 13 to introduce the flue gas to be treated; the top of the heat exchange tank body 11 is connected to a smoke exhaust channel 14 to ensure smooth discharge of the flue gas after heat exchange. The smoke inlet channel 13 is connected to a smoke exhaust branch pipe 15, and one end of the smoke exhaust branch pipe 15 is connected to the smoke exhaust channel 14. A first opening and closing valve 151 is installed on the pipe section of the smoke exhaust branch pipe 15, a second opening and closing valve 141 is installed on the pipe section of the smoke exhaust channel 14, and a third opening and closing valve 131 is installed on the pipe section of the smoke inlet channel 13. In this embodiment, the first on-off valve 151 , the second on-off valve 141 , and the third on-off valve 131 are all electric blind plate valves.

[0031] Reference Figure 2 The inner wall of the heat exchange tank body 11 is also coated with a glass flake coating to prevent the acidic substances generated during the heat exchange process from penetrating into the surface of the metal substrate, thereby preventing the occurrence of electrochemical corrosion caused by long-term exposure to a corrosive environment. The spray assembly 12 specifically includes a spray head 121 located at the top of the heat exchange tank body 11 and a water spray plate 122 arranged below the spray head 121, and a plurality of water spray plates 122 are arranged at intervals below the spray head 121. In the present embodiment, each water spray plate 122 is made of a material with heat-resistant and wear-resistant properties, such as engineering plastics or alloy steel. In the present embodiment, the water spray plate 122 is specifically selected to be a semi-circular disc structure. A plurality of water spray holes 1221 are provided on each layer of the water spray plate 122, and the water spray holes 1221 on the water spray plate 122 are concentrated in the area of ​​the water spray plate 122 away from the arc-shaped side.

The recovery pump 6 is connected to the pipe section of the recovery liquid pipe 51, and the recovery pump 6 can drive the circulating water in the sedimentation chamber 111 to move toward the water recovery device 5. After the condensed water enters the water recovery device 5, it is filtered and precipitated again. Because the water vapor in the flue gas condenses and reacts with sulfur trioxide in the flue gas, sulfuric acid is produced, which is acidic. Alkaline substances such as sodium carbonate are added to the water recovery device 5 to neutralize the acidity in the water. The pH value is detected online to reach the neutral water standard, so that the moisture in the flue gas is recovered and the waste of water resources is avoided.
