Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] The present invention relates to the technical field of sodium-based desulfurizing agents, and particularly relates to a device for preventing sodium-based desulfurizing agents from caking and a using method thereof. Background Art
[0002] Sodium-based desulfurization is an important desulfurization process for flue gas. The desulfurizing agent used is baking soda. After baking soda is ground and sieved, the part that meets the particle size requirements is pneumatically conveyed and sprayed into the flue gas containing sulfur dioxide through a nozzle. After baking soda is heated, it decomposes to produce sodium carbonate. Sodium carbonate reacts with sulfur dioxide in the flue gas to produce sodium sulfite. Sodium sulfite is further oxidized and finally forms stable sodium sulfate, thereby achieving the effect of reducing sulfur dioxide in the flue gas.
[0003] The main component of the currently used sodium-based desulfurizing agent is baking soda (sodium bicarbonate), and the content of sodium bicarbonate exceeds 95%. Baking soda has obvious water absorption. When baking soda is exposed to the air, it is extremely easy to absorb water and cake, which easily causes blockage of the desulfurization system equipment and affects the operation stability of the equipment. After baking soda is ground, the surface area increases, the water absorption is even stronger, and it is easy to adhere to the inner wall of the conveying pipeline. After long-term operation, the pipe diameter becomes smaller or even blocked, resulting in an increase in conveying pressure and energy consumption. At the same time, the inside of the pipeline is a closed space, and it is difficult to clean, resulting in long-term shutdown and seriously affecting production efficiency.
[0004] Aiming at the problem that the sodium-based desulfurizing agent is prone to absorb moisture in the air and caking during use, there is an urgent need for a device for preventing sodium-based desulfurizing agents from caking and a using method thereof. Summary of the Invention
[0005] Aiming at the problem that the currently used sodium-based desulfurizing agent is prone to absorb moisture in the air and caking during use, the present invention proposes a device for preventing sodium-based desulfurizing agents from caking and a using method thereof, which reduces the moisture in the air and avoids the phenomenon of the sodium-based desulfurizing agent absorbing water and caking.
[0006] To achieve the above object, on the one hand, the present invention proposes a device for preventing sodium-based desulfurizing agents from caking, including a hopper. A sealed feed port is installed at the top of the hopper, a discharge pipe is installed at the bottom of the hopper, a valve body three is installed on the discharge pipe, an intake pipe is installed on the left side of the hopper, a dryer and a valve body one are sequentially installed on the intake pipe from left to right, an outlet pipe is installed on the right side of the hopper, a valve body two is installed on the outlet pipe, and the end of the outlet pipe where the gas exits is connected to a vacuum pump.
[0007] Further, the valve body one, the valve body two and the valve body three are all ball valves.
[0008] Further, the outlet pipe and the vacuum pump are connected by a quick-release joint, and through the quick-release joint, it is convenient to disassemble the outlet pipe and the vacuum pump.
[0009] Further, an air filter is installed at the air intake end of the intake pipe. Through the air filter, impurities in the air can be filtered out.
[0010] Further, the dryer uses a medium-replaceable dryer. Through the medium-replaceable dryer, the drying medium can be replaced when the drying effect of the drying medium is not good, ensuring the use effect of the dryer.
[0011] On the other hand, the present invention also proposes a method for using a device for preventing sodium-based desulfurizer caking, including the above-mentioned device for preventing sodium-based desulfurizer caking, and further including the following steps: Step 1, when feeding, first open the sealed feed port, then add materials and close the sealed feed port; Step 2, close valve body 1, valve body 2 and valve body 3 in sequence; Step 3, turn on the vacuum pump. When the pressure in the hopper is negative, close valve body 2 and then turn off the vacuum pump. At this time, the air content in the hopper decreases, thereby reducing the caking property of the sodium-based desulfurizer.
[0012] Further, during production operation, open valve body 1, close valve body 2, close the sealed feed port, and open valve body 3. At this time, the air entering the hopper will be dried by the dryer, reducing the caking property of the sodium-based desulfurizer.
[0013] Further, during system maintenance or shutdown of production, close the sealed feed port, close valve body 1, valve body 2 and valve body 3. In this way, no new air will enter the hopper, ensuring the dryness of the air inside the hopper, enabling the sodium-based desulfurizer inside the hopper to be stored for a long time, and maintaining the reliability of production after restarting production.
[0014] The beneficial effects of the present invention are: By sealing the hopper and then sucking the inside of the hopper through a vacuum pump, the air inside the hopper is reduced, the air in contact with the sodium-based desulfurizer is reduced, and thus the phenomenon of caking of the sodium-based desulfurizer due to water absorption is reduced. The overall use effect is good and the practicability is strong. BRIEF DESCRIPTION OF THE DRAWINGS
