[0005] The purpose of the present invention is to provide an ammonia production device by catalytic hydrolysis of urea that is applicable to different application scenarios, can add solid agents online, and has a stable system operation in view of the deficiencies of the existing technology.
[0006] In order to achieve the above technical objectives, the technical solution adopted by the ammonia production device by catalytic hydrolysis of urea of the present invention is as follows: An ammonia production device by catalytic hydrolysis of urea includes a reaction kettle. A feed inlet is provided in the middle of the reaction kettle. A heating coil is provided at the lower part of one end of the reaction kettle, and the heating coil penetrates into the inner side of the reaction kettle. Steam flows through the heating coil.

[0018] The present invention will be further described below in conjunction with the drawings and specific embodiments: As Figure 1 — Figure 3 shown, a urea catalytic hydrolysis ammonia production device includes a reactor 1. A feed inlet 11 is arranged in the middle of the reactor 1. A heating coil 12 is arranged at the lower part of one end of the reactor 1. The heating coil 12 penetrates into the inner side of the reactor 1, and water vapor circulates in the heating coil 12. A catalyst adding mechanism 2 is arranged on the outer wall of the reactor 1; the catalyst adding mechanism 2 includes a U-shaped medicine adding tube 21 and a cylinder 22. The bent part of the medicine adding tube 21 is located inside the reactor 1. A plurality of perforations 211 are arranged on the outer wall of the medicine adding tube 21. Both ends of the medicine adding tube 21 are located outside the reactor 1. A plurality of medicine shells 23 are filled in the medicine adding tube 21, and a catalyst is contained in the medicine shell 23; the cylinder 22 is located outside the end of the medicine adding tube 21, and the cylinder 22 is used to push the medicine shell 23 to move in the medicine adding tube 21.
[0019] The dosing pipe 21 is filled with a number of medicine shells 23, and the medicine shells 23 are filled with catalysts. Since the dosing pipe 21 is provided with perforations 211, the catalysts can come into contact with the materials in the reaction kettle 1 and play a catalytic role. When the materials in the reaction kettle 1 are in a reaction state, the dosing pipe 21 can be closed to isolate the dosing pipe 21 from the outside world and prevent gas from leaking out through the dosing pipe 21. When it is necessary to replace the catalysts in the dosing pipe 21, a medicine shell 23 filled with new catalysts can be inserted into the dosing pipe 21. As a new medicine shell 23 is added from one end of the dosing pipe 21, an old medicine shell 23 will be extruded from the other end of the dosing pipe 21. In this way, the on-line replacement of the solid catalysts can be realized, effectively improving the A stirring shaft 14 driven by a motor 13 is arranged inside the shell. The stirring shaft 14 extends along the height direction of the shell. A number of stirring blades 15 are arranged on the outer wall of the stirring shaft 14, and the heating coil 12 extends along the length direction of the shell. Under the driving action of the motor 13, the stirring shaft 14 and the stirring blades 15 can rotate reliably, realizing the promotion of the mixing of the materials and improving the contact effect between the materials and the catalysts. Water vapor flows in the heating coil 12, realizing the heating effect on the materials and ensuring that the hydrolysis effect can be carried out reliably.
[0020] The stirring blades 15 and the heating coil 12 are arranged in a staggered manner in the length direction of the shell. In this way, there will be no collision between the stirring blades 15 and the heating coil 12, ensuring that the stirring effect and the heating effect can be carried out synchronously. Further, since the heating coil 12 is arranged at the lower part of the reaction kettle 1, the heated materials will flow upward. Under the stirring action of the stirring blades 15, the materials close to the stirring shaft 14 will rotate circumferentially. In this way, while the heating coil 12 plays a heating role, it can also play a role in promoting the flow of the materials, improving the stirring effect of the stirring blades 15 on the materials.
[0021] A flexible part 212 is arranged at the position where the dosing pipe 21 is close to the inner wall of the reaction kettle 1. The flexible part 212 is communicated with and integrally formed with the dosing pipe 21. An electric valve 213 is arranged on the flexible part 212, and the electric valve 213 is used to contract the flexible part 212. When the flexible part 212 is in a contracted state, the part of the dosing pipe 21 located inside the reaction kettle 1 is not communicated with the part of the dosing pipe 21 located outside the reaction kettle 1. That is to say, when the electric valve 213 is in a closed state, the flexible part 212 will be in a tightened state, thereby preventing the gas in the reaction kettle 1 from discharging outward through the dosing pipe 21. When it is necessary to add catalysts, the electric valve 213 and the flexible part 212 can be briefly opened, and then the catalysts can be added quickly, minimizing the loss of gas.
[0022] The perforations 211 are located inside the reaction kettle 1, and the inner diameter of the perforations 211 is smaller than the outer diameter of the medicine shell 23. In this way, it is ensured that the materials inside the reaction kettle 1 can enter the inside of the medicine adding pipe 21 through the perforations 211, and then penetrate into the inside of the medicine shell 23 to contact the catalyst, ensuring that the catalyst can reliably carry out the catalytic action. The outer diameter of the medicine shell 23 is relatively large and cannot enter the interior of the reaction kettle 1 through the perforations 211, and several medicine shells 23 can reliably move in sequence inside the medicine adding pipe 21, thereby realizing the addition of the catalyst.
[0023] One end of the medicine adding pipe 21 is the medicine inlet end 214 and the other end is the medicine outlet end 215. The height of the medicine inlet end 214 gradually decreases towards the direction of the medicine adding pipe 21, and the medicine outlet end 215 gradually increases towards the direction of the medicine adding pipe 21; several medicine shells 23 include an upper shell 231 and a lower shell 232, and the upper shell 231 and the lower shell 232 are screwed together. Both the upper shell 231 and the lower shell 232 are porous. Both the medicine inlet end 214 and the medicine outlet end 215 are inclined, ensuring that the medicine shell 23 filled with new catalyst can automatically roll into the medicine adding pipe 21, and the medicine shell 23 filled with old catalyst can automatically roll out of the medicine adding pipe 21, improving the fluency of replacement. The upper shell 231 and the lower shell 232 are detachably connected by threads, facilitating the replacement of the catalyst after opening.
[0024] The air cylinder 22 is arranged above the medicine inlet end 214. The push rod of the air cylinder 22 is coaxially arranged with the push rod of the flexible part 212. A push head 24 is arranged on the push rod of the air cylinder 22. An inner concave surface 241 is arranged at the bottom of the push head 24, and the outer wall of the medicine shell 23 fits with the inner concave surface 241. An outer convex surface 242 is arranged at the top of the push head 24, and the push rod of the air cylinder is connected to the outer convex surface 242. When the new medicine shell 23 is placed in the medicine adding pipe 21 and rolls to the vertical part of the medicine adding pipe 21, the push rod of the air cylinder 22 extends and presses this medicine shell 23 towards the bent part of the medicine adding pipe 21, thereby realizing the sequential movement of all the medicine shells 23 and ejecting the medicine shell 23 closest to the medicine outlet end 215 to complete the replacement of the medicine shell 23. The design of the inner concave surface 241 ensures that the push head 24 and the medicine shell 23 can fit tightly. When the push head 24 pushes the medicine shell 23 to move downward, if a new medicine shell 23 enters the medicine inlet end 214, it will contact the outer wall of the push rod of the air cylinder. When the push rod of the air cylinder retracts, the outer convex surface 242 on the push head 24 will push this medicine shell 23 to the outside of the push head 24, ensuring that the push head 24 can move to a high position and be ready to push the next medicine shell 23.
[0025] A through hole 2140 is arranged on the medicine inlet end 214, and the push rod of the air cylinder 22 passes through the through hole 2140. The inner diameter of the through hole 2140 is smaller than the outer diameter of the medicine shell 23. In this way, it effectively prevents the medicine shell 23 from slipping out of the medicine adding pipe 21 through the through hole 2140.
[0026] In summary, the above are only the preferred embodiments of the present invention, and are not used to limit the scope of implementation of the present invention. All equivalent changes and modifications made according to the shape, structure, features and spirit of the scope of the claims of the present invention shall be included within the scope of the claims of the present invention.
