Description
Technical Field
[0001] The present invention relates to the technical field of polyol production processes, and particularly to an oxidation disposal device for cobalt-containing materials in a polyol production process. Background Art
[0002] In the polyol production process, the oxidation disposal device for cobalt-containing materials is not a specific device dedicated to polyol production, but a general device or process link related to cobalt material treatment.

[0008] Preferably, a gap is left between the bottom of the condenser tube and the inner bottom of the separation tube.
[0009] Preferably, the adsorption assembly includes an adsorption box fixedly installed between the treatment tube and the separation tube, and a connecting tube fixedly installed on one side of the bottom of the separation tube. An adsorption tube is arranged on one side of the connecting tube and is communicated with the inside of the separation tube.

[0010] Preferably, a fixing rod is fixedly installed at the inner top of the adsorption box. A telescopic sleeve is slidably installed at the bottom of the fixing rod.

[0014] Advantages of the present invention: 1. The cobalt-containing material oxidation disposal equipment in this polyol production process is equipped with a processing component. The horn-shaped processing tube design effectively promotes the initial dispersion and deceleration of gas, providing favorable conditions for the subsequent condensation process and enhancing the condensation efficiency. Secondly, through the combined application of the U-shaped connecting tube and the spiral condensation tube, not only is the contact time between the gas and the condensation tube extended, but the contact area is also increased, enabling easily condensable components such as ethylene oxide to be more fully condensed and liquefied, thus achieving efficient gas-liquid separation. In addition, the setting of the guiding hopper skillfully guides the flow direction of the condensed liquid, avoiding liquid backflow or accumulation, ensuring the smooth collection and discharge of the condensate. At the same time, the gap design between the bottom of the condensation tube and the inner bottom of the separation tube ensures the smooth flow of the uncondensed gas and realizes the complete separation between gas and liquid, improving the overall treatment effect.
[0015] 2. The cobalt-containing material oxidation disposal equipment in this polyol production process is equipped with an adsorption component. During the heating process, the steam rising force serves as the driving force, and the moving plate can be pushed to rise without additional energy, thereby triggering the entire adsorption mechanism. The rising of the moving plate not only maintains the sealing inside the processing tube but also drives the telescopic sleeve and the piston to move inside the connecting tube through the connecting rod and the gear transmission system, achieving the precise suction of harmful gases at the bottom of the separation tube. This automated operation not only improves production efficiency but also significantly reduces the need for manual intervention, enhancing the safety and reliability of the operation. In addition, the opposite setting of the adsorption tube and the ejection tube optimizes the gas flow path, reduces gas mixing and resistance, and improves the processing efficiency. At the same time, the application of the multi-stage telescopic plate ensures the sealing of the processing tube during movement, preventing gas leakage and guaranteeing the continuity and effectiveness of the adsorption process. More importantly, through a series of precise gear transmissions, this adsorption component realizes the precise control of the adsorption and purification processes. The interaction between the incomplete gear and the meshing tooth grooves on the telescopic sleeve enables the adsorption process to be carried out as needed and automatically reset after completion, preparing for the next adsorption process. This intelligent control not only improves the processing efficiency but also ensures the stability and consistency of the processing effect. BRIEF DESCRIPTION OF THE DRAWINGS

[0019] In order to make the objectives, technical solutions and advantages of the present invention clearer and more understandable, the present invention will be further described in detail below in conjunction with specific embodiments.
[0020] It should be noted that, unless otherwise defined, the technical terms or scientific terms used in the present invention shall have the ordinary meanings understood by those of ordinary skill in the field to which the present invention pertains. The "first", "second" and similar terms used in the present invention do not denote any order, quantity or importance, but are only used to distinguish different components.

Words such as "connected" or "coupled" are not limited to physical or mechanical connections, but may include electrical connections, whether direct or indirect. "Upper", "lower", "left", "right", etc. are only used to represent relative positional relationships, and when the absolute position of the object being described changes, the relative positional relationship may also change accordingly.
[0021] As Figures 1 to 10 shown, the oxidation treatment equipment for cobalt-containing materials in the polyol production process includes a fixed box 1, a reaction box 2 is arranged inside the fixed box 1, a heating pipe 3 is arranged inside the reaction box 2, a feed inlet 4 is arranged at one end of the reaction box 2, and an air outlet 5 is opened at the top of the reaction box 2; a processing component, the processing component is fixedly installed at the upper end of the fixed box 1, and the processing component is used to process the excess gas after the reaction; an adsorption component, the adsorption component is arranged on one side of the processing component, and the adsorption component is used to adsorb the gas still present after condensation inside the processing component; In the polyol production process, the cobalt-containing material undergoes an oxidation reaction through the heating pipe 3 inside the reaction box 2. To ensure the safety of the reaction, nitrogen is first filled into the reaction box 2. After the reaction is completed, the generated gas (mainly including ethylene oxide and the remaining nitrogen) enters the processing component through the air outlet 5. In the processing component, the gas is first subjected to condensation treatment, and most of the ethylene oxide is condensed and recovered. Subsequently, the gas remaining after condensation enters the adsorption component, and the residual ethylene oxide and other harmful gases are further adsorbed through the adsorption material to ensure the cleanliness and safety of the discharged gas. Throughout the process, each component works together to achieve the efficient recovery and safe discharge of ethylene oxide.
[0022] As Figure 4 、 Figure 7As shown in the figure, the processing component includes a gas processing tank 6 fixedly installed at the upper end of a fixed box 1. An air inlet net is provided at the bottom of the processing box. The air outlet 5 is communicated with the air inlet net. A sealing door 7 is also provided on one side above the processing box. In the middle of the top end of the processing box, a processing pipe 8 is fixedly installed. The processing pipe 8 is arranged in a horn shape with a diameter gradually increasing from bottom to top. The top end of the processing pipe 8 is fixedly connected to a communicating pipe 9. The communicating pipe 9 is arranged in a U shape. The other end of the communicating pipe 9 is fixedly connected to a separation pipe 10. A spiral condensing pipe 11 is arranged inside the separation pipe 10. One end of the condensing pipe 11 is provided with a guiding hopper 12 which is attached to the inner top of the separation pipe 10. A liquid outlet pipe 13 is provided at the bottom end of the separation pipe 10. A gap is left between the bottom of the condensing pipe 11 and the inner bottom of the separation pipe 10. After the reaction is completed, the mixed gas containing ethylene oxide and nitrogen enters the gas processing tank 6 of the processing component through the air outlet 5. The gas first enters the processing box through the air inlet net and flows upward to the processing pipe 8. In the processing pipe 8, the gas decelerates and is preliminarily dispersed due to the gradually expanding pipe diameter. Subsequently, the gas enters the communicating pipe 9 and flows along a U-shaped path. During this process, some easily condensable components such as ethylene oxide in the gas start to cool and condense. When the gas enters the separation pipe 10, it passes through the spiral condensing pipe 11. Due to the cooling effect of the condensing pipe 11, the ethylene oxide and other components in the gas are further condensed into liquid. The condensed liquid flows downward along the inner wall of the condensing pipe 11 under the action of gravity and is finally collected at the bottom of the separation pipe 10 through the guiding hopper 12. At the same time, the gas that is not completely condensed continues to flow upward and passes through the gap between the bottom of the condensing pipe 11 and the inner bottom of the separation pipe 10 to achieve complete gas-liquid separation. Finally, the condensed ethylene oxide and other liquids are discharged and collected through the liquid outlet pipe 13.
[0023] As Figures 5 to 10As shown in the figure, the adsorption assembly includes an adsorption box 14 fixedly installed between the treatment pipe 8 and the separation pipe 10, and a connecting pipe 27 fixedly installed on one side of the bottom of the separation pipe 10. An adsorption pipe 28 is arranged on one side of the connecting pipe 27 and is connected to the inside of the separation pipe 10. A spray pipe 29 is arranged on the other side of the connecting pipe 27. The other side of the spray pipe 29 is fixedly connected to a purification box 32. A fixed rod 23 is fixedly installed at the top end inside the adsorption box 14. A telescopic sleeve 24 is slidably installed at the bottom of the fixed rod 23. A first return spring 25 is sleeved between the telescopic sleeve 24 and the fixed rod 23. The bottom end of the telescopic sleeve 24 is fixedly connected to a moving rod 30. The bottom end of the moving rod 30 is fixedly connected to a piston 31. The piston 31 is slidably arranged inside the connecting pipe 27. A chute is opened on one side of the treatment pipe 8. A moving plate 15 is also slidably installed inside the treatment pipe 8. A connecting rod 16 is fixedly installed on one side of the moving plate 15. The connecting rod 16 is arranged in an L shape. The side of the connecting rod 16 close to the moving plate 15 is slidably installed on the chute on one side of the treatment pipe 8. Multistage telescopic plates 33 are arranged on both the upper and lower sides of the chute. The telescopic ends of the two multistage telescopic plates 33 are respectively fixedly connected to the upper and lower ends of the connecting rod 16. A number of teeth are also arranged on the side of the connecting rod 16 away from the moving plate 15. A first rotating rod 17 and a second rotating rod 20 are respectively rotatably installed on one side inside the adsorption box 14. A rotating gear 18 and a first meshing gear 19 are coaxially sleeved above the second rotating rod 20. A second meshing gear 21 and an incomplete gear 22 are coaxially sleeved above the second rotating rod 20. The rotating gear 18 meshes with a number of teeth. The first meshing gear 19 meshes with the second meshing gear 21. A number of meshing tooth grooves 26 are opened on one side of the telescopic sleeve 24. The number of meshing tooth grooves 26 meshes with the incomplete gear 22. The adsorption pipe 28 and the spray pipe 29 are arranged in opposite directions; During the heating process, the force generated by the rising steam pushes the moving plate 15 inside the processing tube 8 upward. During the upward movement of the moving plate 15, the multi-stage telescopic plates 33 on both sides of the chute are driven to move synchronously through the connecting rod 16, maintaining the sealed state inside the processing tube 8. At the same time, the upward movement of the connecting rod 16 drives the rotation of the rotating gear 18, and then through a series of gear transmissions (including the first meshing gear 19, the second meshing gear 21, and the incomplete gear 22), the telescopic sleeve 24 is driven to slide on the fixed rod 23. The movement of the telescopic sleeve 24 drives the movement of the moving rod 30 and the piston 31 inside the connecting tube 27, so as to suck the harmful gas at the bottom of the separation tube 10 through the adsorption tube 28. When the incomplete gear 22 rotates to disengage from the telescopic sleeve 24, the first return spring 25 pushes the telescopic sleeve 24 to reset downward, and then pushes the piston 31 to spray the adsorbed gas into the purification tank 32 through the ejection tube 29 for further treatment. As the moving plate 15 continues to rise, the air pressure inside the processing tube 8 gradually decreases. When the air pressure decreases to a certain extent, the moving plate 15 loses the upward lifting force and begins to fall. The falling of the moving plate 15 drives the gear transmission system to reset in the reverse direction through the connecting rod 16, preparing for the next adsorption process. During the whole process, the adsorption component realizes the automatic adsorption and purification treatment of harmful gases through mechanical transmission, improving the production efficiency and safety.
