In addition, the terms "comprising" and "having" used herein and any variations thereof are intended to cover non-exclusive inclusion. For example, a process, method, system, product, or device that includes a series of steps or units is not limited to the listed steps or units, but optionally further includes steps or units not listed, or optionally further includes other steps or units inherent to these processes, methods, products, or devices.

[0023] In order to effectively monitor the material dissolution reaction and determine whether the dissolution reaction is completed, the present invention provides a method for monitoring the material dissolution reaction. By detecting the vacuum degree in real time and discharging the gas generated by the reaction, maintaining the same vacuum degree before and after the gas discharge, and calculating the mass of the discharged gas using the mass measured by a weighing sensor, the monitoring of the dissolution reaction process is realized. It not only improves the accuracy and real-time performance of the dissolution reaction detection, but also realizes automatic control, reduces manual intervention, and improves production efficiency and safety. Among them, the vacuum degree of the container refers to the degree to which the gas pressure in the container is lower than the atmospheric pressure, which is the difference between the absolute pressure in the container and the atmospheric pressure. If the atmospheric pressure is 100 KPa and the absolute pressure in the container is 10 KPa, the pressure difference is -90 KPa, and the vacuum degree is 90 KPa.

[0024] AsFigure 1 As shown, the specific steps include: Step S100: Based on the reaction equation, calculate the first gas mass of the gas generated by the dissolution reaction according to the masses of all materials. The reaction equation refers to the chemical reaction equation on which the material dissolution reaction is based. Different materials correspond to different reaction equations. Through the quantitative relationship of the chemical reaction equation, the theoretically generated gas mass can be calculated. Specifically: Using the quantitative conservation relationship of the chemical reaction, based on the balanced reaction equation, ensure that the number of atoms of each element is conserved, thereby determining the molar ratio of reactants to products (i.e., the equation coefficient ratio); then, according to the masses, concentrations, volumes, etc. of all materials, convert them to the amount of substance through the molar mass or molar concentration formula, and then determine the limiting reactant (i.e., the material that determines the theoretical gas yield); finally, according to the amount of substance of the limiting reactant and the coefficient ratio of the gas product in the equation, calculate the mass of the gas substance to obtain the first gas mass.

[0025] Step S200: Make the environment in the dissolution tank reach the target environment. The target environment means that the internal environment formed by air, water, etc. in the dissolution tank will not affect the dissolution reaction in the dissolution tank and the quality of the generated gas. The environment in the dissolution tank can be made to reach the target environment by evacuating the dissolution tank.

[0026] Step S300: During the dissolution reaction, when the preset conditions are met, make the vacuum degree in the dissolution tank the same as the vacuum degree in the dissolution tank before the dissolution reaction, calculate the difference between the first mass before the dissolution reaction and the second mass during the dissolution reaction to obtain the second gas mass. Among them, the first mass and the second mass are the sum of the masses of the dissolution tank, the first reaction material, and the second reaction material. When the difference between the first gas mass and the second gas mass is less than or equal to the preset threshold, it is determined that the dissolution reaction is completed; otherwise, it is determined that the dissolution reaction is not completed.

[0027] Before the dissolution reaction, weigh the dissolution tank, the first reaction material, and the second reaction material, and calculate the sum of the masses of the dissolution tank, the first reaction material, and the second reaction material to obtain the first mass.

[0028] During the dissolution reaction process, when the preset conditions are met, the dissolution reaction in the dissolution tank is detected, and based on the detection results, it is determined whether the dissolution reaction is completed. Among them, the preset conditions can be time limits. For example, the time interval between the current time and the last detection reaches 1 minute, or they can be state limits. For example, the vacuum degree in the dissolution tank reaches a certain value; it can also be a combination of the vacuum degree and the time interval to form the preset conditions; it can also be the change rate of the vacuum degree (such as the vacuum degree changes very little over a period of time). The specific process of obtaining the detection results is as follows: First, make the vacuum degree in the dissolution tank during detection the same as the vacuum degree in the dissolution tank before the dissolution reaction. Then, weigh the dissolution tank to obtain the sum of the masses of the dissolution tank, the first reaction material in the dissolution tank, and the second reaction material in the dissolution tank at the detection moment, that is, the second mass. Calculate the difference between the first mass and the second mass to obtain the second gas mass. Then, determine whether the dissolution reaction is completed based on whether the second gas mass is close to the theoretically calculated first gas mass. That is, when the difference between the first gas mass and the second gas mass is less than or equal to the preset threshold, it is determined that the dissolution reaction is completed; otherwise, it is determined that the dissolution reaction is not completed. Among them, the preset threshold can be set according to the materials and the types of generated gases, or it can be set according to empirical values.

[0029] Therefore, in the present invention, by maintaining the same vacuum degree in the dissolution tank before and after gas discharge, the mass difference of the dissolution tank before and after gas discharge can be equivalent to the mass of the gas generated by the dissolution reaction, so as to be compared with the theoretically generated gas mass, realize the monitoring of the dissolution reaction process, determine whether the dissolution reaction is completed, and improve production efficiency and safety.

[0030] The embodiment of the present invention runs on a battery production line. The material dissolution reaction monitoring method runs on the PLC (programmable logic controller) on the battery production line, and the slurry (i.e., the first reaction material) and the powder material (i.e., the second reaction material) need to undergo a dissolution reaction. The PLC can determine whether the dissolution reaction of the powder material and the slurry is completed. It should be noted that the material dissolution reaction monitoring method can also be deployed on other control devices, such as electronic devices, to carry out production control together with the PLC; the dissolution reaction can also occur between two or more materials; the materials that produce chemical reactions are not limited to liquid materials and powder materials, and can also be other types of materials, such as liquid materials and solid materials, etc.

[0031] In this embodiment, first, according to the chemical reaction equation of the slurry and the powder, the mass of the gas that can be theoretically generated is calculated by combining the mass of the slurry and the mass of the powder participating in the dissolution reaction, that is, the first gas mass. Then, the dissolution tank is evacuated by a vacuum pump, and inert gases such as helium, argon, and xenon are introduced into the dissolution tank to displace the moisture and air in the dissolution tank. A detector is installed on the gas output pipe of the dissolution tank. When it is detected by the detector that the moisture and air in the dissolution tank are completely displaced, it is determined that the environment in the dissolution tank reaches the target environment, and the displacement process is stopped. Compared with the conventional operation of only evacuating the air, the displacement operation in this embodiment can better ensure that there is no interference from other impurities during the dissolution reaction.

[0032] After the environment in the dissolution tank reaches the target environment, the slurry is pumped into the dissolution tank, and the powder is positively pressured and conveyed into the feed tank, where the feed tank is connected to the dissolution tank through a pipeline. Then, the dissolution tank is evacuated to make the vacuum degree in the dissolution tank reach the first preset value. Then, the dissolution tank is weighed to obtain the sum of the mass of the dissolution tank and the first reaction material. On this basis, the mass of the second reaction material is added to obtain the first mass. That is, the first mass is the sum of the mass of the dissolution tank, the first reaction material, and the second reaction material participating in the dissolution reaction. Preferably, as in this embodiment, the feed tank is installed on the dissolution tank, and the dissolution tank and the feed tank can be weighed together, and the first mass can be obtained by weighing once. Then, the second reaction material is put into the dissolution tank from the feed tank to start the dissolution reaction. By putting the first reaction material and the second reaction material into the dissolution tank step by step, the first preset value of the vacuum degree and the first mass will not be affected by the dissolution reaction, improving the detection accuracy. Moreover, since the feed tank is connected to the dissolution tank through a pipeline, the pressure in the feed tank is the same as that in the dissolution tank during evacuation, so that when the powder in the feed tank is put into the dissolution tank, the pressure in the dissolution tank will not change, achieving a pressure stabilizing effect and ensuring the accuracy of the first preset value.

[0033] During the dissolution reaction, the vacuum degree in the dissolution tank is detected to obtain the measured value. When the measured value is less than or equal to the second preset value, or the difference between the measured value and the first preset value is greater than the vacuum degree threshold, or the change rate of the vacuum degree in the dissolution tank is less than the preset threshold, it is determined that the preset conditions are met. At this time, it is necessary to detect the second gas mass of the gas generated by the dissolution, and determine whether the dissolution reaction is completed based on the second gas mass and the first gas mass. Specifically, during the detection, first, the dissolution tank is evacuated to make the vacuum degree in the dissolution tank reach the first preset value, and the dissolution tank is weighed to obtain the second mass. The difference between the first mass and the second mass is calculated to obtain the second gas mass. By evacuating the air during the detection, the vacuum degree in the dissolution tank at the detection moment reaches the vacuum degree before the dissolution reaction, so that it is possible to measure the mass of the generated gas by the difference between the first mass and the second mass before and after the dissolution reaction.

[0034] As described above, in this embodiment, by feeding materials step by step, the vacuum degree in the dissolution tank before the dissolution reaction is accurate. During the dissolution reaction, by making the vacuum degree in the dissolution tank the same as that before the dissolution reaction, it is ingeniously achieved that the mass difference between the first mass before the dissolution reaction and the second mass during detection can be used as the mass of the generated gas, so as to determine whether the dissolution reaction is completed by comparing with the mass of the theoretically generated gas.

[0035] Based on the above material dissolution reaction monitoring method, the present invention further provides a material dissolution reaction monitoring device, including a memory storing executable program codes and a processor coupled to the memory; the processor calls the executable program codes stored in the memory for executing the material dissolution reaction monitoring method.

[0036] This embodiment also provides a material dissolution reaction system deployed in a battery production line, as Figure 2 shown. The material dissolution reaction system mainly includes: a dissolution tank 10, a feed tank 11, and a control device 12. The dissolution tank 10 includes a tank body 101 and a cover body 102. The feed tank 11 is fixedly installed on the cover body 102. The feed tank 11 is used to store the powder for the dissolution reaction. A first electric ball valve 13 is provided between the dissolution tank 10 and the feed tank 11. When the first electric ball valve 13 is opened, the powder in the feed tank 11 falls into the dissolution tank 10 under the action of gravity. In order to ensure that the feeding of the feed tank 11 does not affect the vacuum degree in the dissolution tank 10 and ensure the accuracy of the vacuum degree before the dissolution reaction, a first connecting pipe 14 is also provided between the feed tank 11 and the dissolution tank 10. Through the first connecting pipe 14, the dissolution tank 10 and the feed tank 11 can be evacuated together so that the vacuum degrees of the dissolution tank 10 and the feed tank 11 are the same. If the powder is directly transported to the dissolution tank 10 under positive pressure, due to the difference between the transportation pressure and the pressure in the dissolution tank 10, it will inevitably affect the vacuum degree in the dissolution tank 10 and lead to inaccurate determination results.

[0037] The feed tank 11 is also connected to a sending bin 15 through a pipeline. A first pneumatic ball valve 16 is installed on the pipeline between the sending bin 15 and the feed tank 11. The sending bin 15 is also connected to a first gas cylinder 17 through a pipeline. A first pneumatic diaphragm valve 18 is installed on the pipeline between the sending bin 15 and the first gas cylinder 17. When the first pneumatic diaphragm valve 18 and the first pneumatic ball valve 16 are opened, the powder in the sending bin 15 is transported to the feed tank 11 under positive pressure through the pressure of the first gas cylinder 17.

[0038] The pipeline between the sending silo 15 and the first gas cylinder 17 is connected to the air outlet pipe 26 through a second connecting pipe 41. A pneumatic diaphragm valve is installed on the second connecting pipe 41. By setting the second connecting pipe 41, the vacuum pump 27 can evacuate the pipeline between the sending silo 15 and the first gas cylinder 17 and the sending silo 15, ensuring that there are no other impurities in the powder fed into the feeding tank 11 and improving the detection accuracy.

[0039] A liquid inlet 103 is provided on the cover body 102 of the dissolving tank 10. A liquid inlet pipe 19 is connected to the liquid inlet 103, and a second pneumatic ball valve 20 is installed on the liquid inlet pipe 19. After connecting the liquid inlet pipe 19 to a liquid silo (not shown in the figure) and opening the second pneumatic ball valve 20, the slurry can be pumped into the dissolving tank 10.

[0040] Since inert gas is used to displace the air and moisture in the dissolving tank 10 before the dissolving reaction, an air inlet 21 is provided on the cover body 102 of the dissolving tank 10. The air inlet 21 is connected to a second gas cylinder 23 through an air inlet pipe 22. The second gas cylinder 23 is filled with inert gas. A second pneumatic diaphragm valve 24 is installed on the air inlet pipe 22. When the second pneumatic diaphragm valve 24 is opened, the inert gas in the second gas cylinder 23 can enter the dissolving tank 10.

[0041] An air outlet 25 is also provided on the cover body 102 of the dissolving tank 10. An air outlet pipe 26 is connected to the air outlet 25. One end of the air outlet pipe 26 is equipped with a vacuum pump 27, and a third pneumatic diaphragm valve 28 is also installed on the air outlet pipe 26. When the third pneumatic diaphragm valve 28 is opened and the vacuum pump 27 works, the dissolving tank 10 can be evacuated to maintain the vacuum degree inside the dissolving tank 10. A detection pipe 29 is also connected to the vacuum pump 27. One end of the detection pipe 29 is connected to a three-way valve 30, and the three-way valve 30 is also connected to a detector 31 and a tail gas pipe 32. The detector 31 is used to detect the gas displaced from the inside of the dissolving tank 10 when using inert gas to displace the air and moisture in the dissolving tank 10 to determine whether the displacement is completed. The tail gas pipe 32 is connected to a tail gas treatment pipe 33, and the tail gas treatment pipe 33 is used to treat the gas displaced from the inside of the dissolving tank 10 and the gas extracted from the inside of the dissolving tank 10 during the dissolving reaction.

[0042] A plurality of weighing sensors 34 are installed at intervals on the tank body 101 of the dissolving tank 10. The weighing sensors 34 are used to weigh the dissolving tank 10 and the feeding tank 11 together. In this embodiment, using the feeding tank 11 not only does not affect the vacuum degree of the dissolving tank 10 during feeding, but also, compared with weighing the dissolving tank 10 and the powder separately, the total mass of the dissolving tank 10, the slurry and the powder can be obtained through one weighing, and the obtained first mass is more accurate.

[0043] A vacuum sensor 35 is installed on the cover 102 of the dissolution tank 10. In this embodiment, the vacuum sensor 35 is a digital pressure sensor. The vacuum sensor 35 is used to detect the vacuum degree inside the dissolution tank 10 during the dissolution reaction, obtain the measured value, and transmit the measured value to the control device 12.

[0044] The control device 12 is a PLC in the form of a control cabinet. The control device 12 is electrically connected to at least the vacuum pump 27 and the weighing sensor 34, and is used to control the entire system. A material dissolution reaction monitoring method is running on the control device 12.

[0045] As Figure 3 shown, there is a stirring shaft 104 inside the dissolution tank 10, and stirring through the stirring shaft 104 can accelerate the dissolution reaction. A motor 36 and a first gear 37 drivingly connected to the motor 36 are installed on the cover 102 of the dissolution tank 10. The motor 36 drives the first gear 37, and the first gear 37 drives the stirring shaft 104 to rotate. In order to make the vacuum degree inside the dissolution tank 10 accurate and reliable, in this embodiment, the first gear 37 and the stirring shaft 104 are connected through a first magnetic coupler 38, and the torque is transmitted through magnetic force, avoiding the risk of leakage at the shaft seal and ensuring the sealing performance of the dissolution tank 10.

[0046] During the reaction process, the generated gas may be wrapped in the material and cannot be discharged in time. In this embodiment, a plurality of defoaming screws 105 are also installed inside the dissolution tank 10. A second gear 39 is installed on the cover 102 of the dissolution tank 10. The second gear 39 is drivingly connected to the motor 36, and the second gear 39 and the defoaming screw 105 are connected through a second magnetic coupler 40. The second magnetic coupler 40 also avoids the risk of leakage at the shaft seal and ensures the sealing performance of the dissolution tank.

[0047] In this embodiment, the radial dimension of one end of the defoaming screw 105 adjacent to the bottom of the dissolution tank 10 is designed to be larger than the radial dimension of one end adjacent to the top of the dissolution tank 10. The defoaming screw 105 adopts a form with a larger bottom and a smaller top, which can turn up the bubbles generated below in time, increase the reaction rate; in addition, it can also be used for stirring, making the dissolution reaction more thorough.

[0048] In some embodiments, a jacket (not shown in the figure) can also be installed on the dissolution tank 10, and the dissolution tank 10 can be heated through the jacket according to the requirements of the material reaction, making the dissolution reaction rate faster.

[0049] The specific process of monitoring the material dissolution using the material dissolution reaction system of this embodiment is as follows: (1)First, turn on the vacuum pump 27 and the third pneumatic diaphragm valve 28 to evacuate the dissolving tank 10. Then, open the second pneumatic diaphragm valve 24 to introduce inert gas to completely displace the moisture and air in the dissolving tank 10 (check whether the displacement is complete through the detector 31). After that, close the vacuum pump 27, the third pneumatic diaphragm valve 28, and the second pneumatic diaphragm valve 24 to ensure that no other impurities interfere during the dissolving reaction process. (2)Open the second pneumatic ball valve 20 to pump the slurry participating in the reaction into the dissolving tank 10, and close the second pneumatic ball valve 20 after pumping is completed. (3)Open the first pneumatic ball valve 16 and the first pneumatic diaphragm valve 18 to send the powder material into the feeding tank 11 by positive pressure transmission. Close the first pneumatic ball valve 16 and the first pneumatic diaphragm valve 18 after the conveying is completed. (4)Turn on the vacuum pump 27 and the third pneumatic diaphragm valve 28 to evacuate the dissolving tank 10 and the feeding tank 11 (the feeding tank 11 and the dissolving tank 10 are connected by the first connecting pipe 14). For example, evacuate to a vacuum of 80 KPa. Then, close the vacuum pump 27 and the third pneumatic diaphragm valve 28. Then, weigh through the weighing sensor 34 to obtain the first mass. (5)Turn on the motor 36, and then open the first electric ball valve 13. The powder material will fall into the dissolving tank 10 by gravity to start the reaction, and jacket heating can be carried out according to the reaction requirements. (6)During the dissolving reaction, gas is generated, which will cause the vacuum degree in the dissolving tank 10 to decrease. The vacuum degree sensor 35 can detect the vacuum degree in the dissolving tank 10 in real time. When the vacuum degree drops to 75 KPa, through PLC control, start the vacuum pump 27 to extract the gas in the dissolving tank 10 until the vacuum degree in the dissolving tank 10 reaches 80 KPa and then stop. Weigh the total mass of the dissolving tank 10 through the weighing sensor 34 to obtain the second mass. Calculate the difference between the first mass and the second mass to obtain the second gas mass. Compare whether the second gas mass is close to the calculated theoretical gas mass (i.e., the first gas mass) (for example, the second gas mass is more than 95% of the theoretical gas mass). If it is not close, continue the reaction. Wait until the next time the vacuum degree drops to 75 KPa, then recalculate the second gas mass and continue to compare it with the first gas mass until the second gas mass is close to the first gas mass. At this time, it is determined that the dissolving reaction is completed.

[0050] In summary, the material dissolving reaction system of this embodiment combines vacuum control and real-time weighing technology, skillfully integrates the real-time detection of reaction gas production into the operation process of the dissolving tank, and can timely determine whether the dissolving reaction is complete through the data of the weighing sensor.
