Detailed Implementation
[0019] like Figs. 1-4 As shown, a separation device for petroleum-mixed xylene includes a separation tower 1. The separation tower 1 includes a lower cylindrical separation cylinder 101, an upper conical shrink cylinder 102, and an upper cylindrical stilling water cylinder 103. The lower part of the separation cylinder 101 is provided with a water inlet pipe 2, which is connected to a water inlet pump 3. The outlet of the water inlet pump 3 is connected to a water inlet distributor 4. The separation cylinder 101 is provided with a vibration component 6 and a water collection distributor 5 in sequence above the water inlet distributor 4. The upper part of the stilling water cylinder 103 is provided with an oil collection weir 106. The stilling water cylinder 103 is provided with a water level control weir 104 outside the oil collection weir 106. The water collection weir 105 is provided outside the water level control weir 104. The water collection distributor 5 is connected to the bottom of the water level control weir 104 by a pipe. The lower part of the water collection weir 105 is provided with a water outlet pipe 7.
[0020] The mixed xylene (hereinafter referred to as oil) enters the separation cylinder 101 from the bottom. The water distributor 4 causes the sewage to rise evenly on the cross section of the separation cylinder 101. The water flow velocity is low. The rising water flow passes through the ultrasonic component 6 and is subjected to ultrasonic vibration. Under the cavitation effect of the ultrasonic waves, the fine oil droplets gather to form large oil droplets. Since the water collection speed of the water distributor 5 is lower than the rising speed of the oil droplets, the oil droplets and sewage continue to rise and enter the still water cylinder 103. The separated sewage enters the water level control weir 104. The liquid level in the still water cylinder 103 is determined by the water level control weir 104. The sewage is in a static state in the still water cylinder 103. The oil in the still water cylinder 103 has sufficient time to rise and separate from the sewage.
[0021] The bottom of the oil collection weir 106 is provided with a reflux pipe 19 connected to the lower part of the distillation tank 10. The bottom of the distillation tank 10 is provided with a xylene recovery pipe 8. Electric valves are installed on both the reflux pipe 19 and the xylene recovery pipe 8. The oil collection weir 106 is provided with two liquid level switches 9. The top of the distillation tank 10 is provided with a steam outlet pipe 12. The distillation tank 10 is provided with a heat transfer oil circulation pipe 11.
[0022] When the liquid level in the oil collection cofferdam 106 is high, the electric valve of the reflux pipe 19 is opened by the liquid level switch 9, and the oil flowing out of the oil collection cofferdam 106 enters the distillation tank 10. Heat-conducting oil at 120°C is introduced into the distillation tank 10 to distill the oil. At this time, the water in the oil is distilled out. After the distillation is completed, the electric valve of the xylene recovery pipe 8 is opened to obtain qualified xylene.
[0023] A capillary plate 17 is provided at the top of the static water cylinder 103. The siphon plate 17 is made of a capillary material that is hydrophobic and oleophilic. The top of the water level control cofferdam 104 is flush with the bottom surface of the siphon plate 17, that is, the interface between the sewage and the oil in the static water cylinder 103 is located at the bottom of the siphon plate 17. Since the hydrophobic and oleophilic material is a wetting material for oil rather than sewage, the siphon plate 17 will cause a siphon phenomenon for oil and will not cause a siphon phenomenon for water. The oil rises to the top of the siphon plate 17 and flows out under the siphon action.
[0024] The ultrasonic component 6 consists of an outer cylinder 601 and an inner cylinder 602. The outer cylinder 601 has the same diameter as the separation cylinder 101. The inner cylinder 602 is a ring-shaped cavity structure. Ultrasonic vibrators 16 are uniformly arranged on the outer circumference of the outer cylinder 601. Ultrasonic vibrators 16 are uniformly arranged on both the outer side inner wall and the inner side inner wall of the inner cylinder 602. The inner cylinder 602 is connected to the outer cylinder 601 through a support member 603. The outer cylinder 601 is hermetically connected to the separation cylinder 101 through a flange.
[0025] The heat-conducting oil circulation pipe 11 enters from the top of the distillation tank 10 and flows out from the bottom of the distillation tank 10, then enters the static water cylinder 103 for internal circulation, and then flows out of the static water cylinder 103. The diameter of the static water cylinder 103 is designed to be smaller than that of the separation cylinder 101, which can reduce the load of the heat-conducting oil and at the same time increase the liquid temperature in the static water cylinder 103, making the oil activity in the static water cylinder 103 increase and being beneficial to the separation from sewage.
[0026] The water inlet distributor 4 and the water collection distributor 5 have the same structure. The water collection distributor 5 includes a water distribution main pipe 501. A blind plate A504 is welded on one side of the water distribution main pipe 501. Two rows of water distribution branch pipes 502 are connected beside the water distribution main pipe 501 to form a "rich" character structure. A blind plate B505 is welded at the end of the water collection branch pipe 502. Water collection pipes 503 are uniformly arranged on the water distribution branch pipe 502. The water collection pipes 503 open upwards, and the top of the water collection pipes 503 is an enlarged flared structure. The water flow velocity in the water collection pipes 503 is not greater than 0.005 m / s.
[0027] An aeration distributor 14 is provided between the water inlet distributor 4 and the vibration component 6 in the separation cylinder 101. The aeration distributor 14 is connected to an air compressor 15. An exhaust pipe 18 is provided on the siphon plate 17. Through aeration, the oil adheres to the surface of the bubbles and quickly rises to separate from the sewage.
[0028] A steam outlet pipe 12 is provided with a series-connected adsorption tank 13 filled with high-efficiency activated carbon to adsorb the harmful gas distilled out, so as to avoid atmospheric pollution by the harmful gas.
[0029] The effective volume of the oil collection cofferdam 106 is two-thirds of the distillation tank 10.
