Description

Technical Field

[0001] The present invention relates to the technical field of waste paint barrel treatment, and in particular to a waste paint barrel recycling and treatment system and method. Background Art

[0002] With the rapid development of industrialization, the amount of waste paint cans generated has increased year by year. These paint cans are usually made of metal materials, but due to the paint coating on their surface, direct recycling is quite difficult. Traditional disposal methods mainly include incineration, landfill, chemical treatment, and mechanical treatment. However, these methods have the following problems in practical application:

[0003] 1. Incineration. Incineration is a common method for removing paint coatings, breaking down the paint into gas or ash at high temperatures. However, the incineration process produces a large amount of harmful gases (such as dioxins and volatile organic compounds), causing serious environmental pollution. In addition, incineration equipment has high investment costs and energy consumption, and metal materials may oxidize or deform at high temperatures, affecting their recycling quality. Therefore, incineration is not suitable for large-scale promotion.

[0004] 2. Landfill disposal: Landfilling is a simple but unsustainable method of disposal. Directly landfilling used paint cans not only wastes precious metal resources, but may also pollute the soil and groundwater due to the leakage of harmful substances in the paint coating. Especially in the context of increasingly stringent environmental protection regulations, landfill disposal has been gradually eliminated.

[0005] 3. Chemical treatment: Chemical treatment involves removing the paint coating using strong acids, strong bases, or other chemical reagents. For example, hot alkaline reactions using sodium hydroxide solution can effectively dissolve organic components in the paint coating. However, existing chemical treatment processes often suffer from low efficiency, high cost, complex operations, and environmental pressures.

[0006] 4. Mechanical processing. Mechanical processing methods (such as crushing and grinding) can crush waste paint cans into small particles, but they cannot effectively remove the paint coating. The residual paint will affect the quality of the metal fragments and limit their reuse value. In addition, the mechanical processing process may generate a lot of dust and noise, which will have an adverse impact on the working environment.

[0007] In summary, the existing waste paint barrel treatment technology generally has the following problems:

[0008] Serious environmental pollution: Whether it is the harmful gases produced by incineration or the waste liquid produced by chemical treatment, it will cause varying degrees of pollution to the environment.

[0009] Low resource utilization: Landfill and mechanical processing cannot achieve efficient recovery of metal resources, wasting precious raw materials.

[0010] Complex process and high cost: Although chemical treatment can partially remove the paint coating, it is inefficient, costly, and complex to operate, making it difficult to meet the needs of industrial production.

[0011] Moreover, existing technologies mostly focus on a single link (such as paint removal or metal recovery) and lack an optimized design for the entire process from crushing to post-processing.

[0049] The purpose of the present invention is to provide a waste paint can recycling and processing system and method to solve the problems existing in the above-mentioned prior art, which can achieve the complete removal of paint coating and efficient recovery of metal fragments, while reducing wastewater discharge and environmental pollution.

[0050] In order to make the above-mentioned objects, features and advantages of the present invention more obvious and easy to understand, the present invention is further described in detail below with reference to the accompanying drawings and specific embodiments.

[0051] Example 1

[0052] like Figure 1-Figure 5 As shown, this embodiment provides a waste paint barrel recycling and processing system, which mainly includes:

[0053] A crushing unit, which is used to crush the waste paint cans to obtain paint can fragments;

[0054] The reaction unit is a tank-type reactor including a reaction tank body 6. A reaction liquid can be placed in the reaction tank body 6. The reaction liquid can remove the paint coating on the paint bucket fragments. The reaction liquid can be selected according to specific work needs, and is preferably a sodium hydroxide solution. When the broken paint bucket fragments are placed in the reaction tank body 6 and fully mixed with the sodium hydroxide solution, the paint coating can be removed.

[0055] A cleaning unit, which is used to clean the paint bucket fragments after the reaction is completed;

[0056] A post-processing unit is provided, wherein the post-processing unit is capable of processing the mixed liquid generated after the reaction of the reaction unit and the cleaning wastewater generated by the cleaning unit.

[0057] In this embodiment, the crushing unit can crush the waste paint can to obtain paint can fragments, the reaction unit can remove the paint coating on the paint can fragments, the cleaning unit can clean the paint can fragments after the reaction is completed, and the post-processing unit can process the waste alkali solution and cleaning wastewater. The crushing, chemical reaction, cleaning and post-processing are integrated into one, thereby achieving the complete removal of the paint coating and the efficient recovery of metal fragments, while reducing wastewater discharge and environmental pollution.

[0058] In this embodiment, the crushing unit is a dual-shaft crusher, which includes a crushing shell 14 mounted on a machine tool 20. A feed hopper 13 is connected to the top of the crushing shell 14 for feeding the waste paint cans. A rotating cutter shaft 18 is rotatably mounted within the crushing shell 14.

Through the hot alkali reaction, the paint coating on the surface of the waste paint barrel can be completely removed, and the paint removal rate reaches more than 99%, ensuring that the quality of the metal fragments meets the recycling requirements; wherein, the heating device can be selected according to specific work needs. As a preferred embodiment, the heating device is a heating jacket 11, which is wrapped around the outside of the reaction tank body 6, and an electric heating tube is provided in the heating jacket 11.

The insulation layer is used to reduce heat loss and improve energy utilization efficiency.

[0067] Furthermore, the reaction unit also includes a temperature control system for real-time monitoring and adjusting the temperature of the reaction liquid; wherein the temperature control system includes a temperature sensor and a controller, the temperature sensor is provided on the reaction tank body 6, for real-time monitoring of the temperature of the reaction liquid, and the temperature sensor is connected to the controller signal, capable of transmitting the monitored temperature data to the controller, the controller is also connected to the electric heating tube signal, and can adjust the heating temperature of the electric heating tube in real time according to the temperature data monitored by the temperature sensor. Wherein, the reaction tank body 6 is also provided with a monitoring port 7 for connecting a temperature sensor for monitoring.

[0068] In this embodiment, the exhaust port 5 of the reaction tank body 6 is also connected to a waste gas treatment device through an exhaust pipe, and the waste gas treatment device is used to treat volatile organic compounds (VOCs) and alkaline gases generated during the reaction process; wherein, the waste gas treatment device can be selected according to specific work needs.

[0070] In this embodiment, the reaction unit is combined with the design of the exhaust gas treatment device, which can not only effectively remove the paint coating, but also avoid the pollution of volatile organic compounds (VOCs) to the environment; the temperature control system monitors and adjusts the reaction temperature in real time to ensure stable reaction conditions and improve the removal efficiency of the paint coating.

[0071] In this embodiment, the cleaning unit mainly includes a vibrating screening machine and a spray system 25. The vibrating screening machine includes a screen 21, a vibration motor 22 and a fixed frame 23. The screen 21 is arranged on the fixed frame 23. The vibration motor 22 is used to drive the screen 21 to vibrate. The screen 21 is made of corrosion-resistant material (stainless steel 304) and the aperture of the screen 21 is 2-5 mm; the spray system 25 is installed on the upper part of the vibrating screening machine, including multiple high-pressure fan-shaped nozzles, and adopts a fan-shaped spray design to ensure that the cleaning water covers the entire surface of the screen 21. A wastewater collection tank is also provided at the bottom of the vibrating screening machine for collecting alkaline wastewater generated during the cleaning process and transporting it to the post-processing unit for precipitation and recycling, ensuring that there is no residual sodium hydroxide on the surface of the cleaned fragments to meet the requirements of subsequent metal recovery or reuse.

[0072] The operating parameters of the cleaning unit in this embodiment are: vibration frequency of the screen 21: 50-60 Hz; amplitude: 2-5 mm; spray water pressure: 0.2-0.5 MPa; spray water flow rate: 5-10 L / min; cleaning time: 5-10 minutes.

The recovered metal fragments can be used for reuse, thereby achieving efficient recycling of resources. At the same time, wastewater can be collected and recycled, and the wastewater collection tank is connected to the post-processing unit, thereby achieving resource utilization of wastewater.

[0074] In this embodiment, the post-processing unit mainly includes a sedimentation tank and a dehydration device. The sedimentation tank is made of corrosion-resistant material and is provided with a diversion device inside. The diversion device can be selected according to specific work needs.

The height is 80% of the pool depth and the bottom is suspended 30-50 cm, forcing the wastewater to flow back and forth multiple times, extending the residence time to more than 24 hours; the bottom of the sedimentation tank is designed to be a conical or inclined structure to extend the liquid residence time and improve the sedimentation efficiency, so as to facilitate the centralized collection of the sediment. A supernatant outlet is provided at the top of the sedimentation tank, and the supernatant outlet is connected to the reaction unit through a return pipe, and a return pump is provided on the return pipe; the reacted mixed liquid and the cleaning wastewater are left to stand in the sedimentation tank for 24 hours, and the supernatant is returned to the reaction unit for reuse, reducing the consumption of chemical reagents, and the sediment is dehydrated and then transported for treatment.

The return pipe is connected to a filter device to remove tiny suspended solids before returning to ensure the quality of the recycled liquid.

[0075] In this embodiment, the dehydration device uses a belt filter press, and the moisture content of the solids after dehydration is reduced to ≤30%.

[0078] This embodiment also provides a method for recycling and utilizing waste paint cans, which is implemented using the waste paint can recycling and utilizing system described above and mainly includes the following steps:

[0081] S3, cleaning the paint bucket fragments after the reaction is completed by the cleaning unit;

[0082] S4. Treating the mixed liquid generated after the reaction in the reaction unit and the cleaning wastewater generated by the cleaning unit through the post-treatment unit.

[0084] The waste paint barrel recycling and processing system and method in this embodiment are applicable to various types of waste paint barrels (such as iron barrels, aluminum barrels, etc.), and have strong versatility and industrial application prospects.

[0085] Example 2

[0086] In this embodiment, the method for recycling and treating waste paint barrels is described in detail as follows:

[0087] Waste paint cans are fed into a dual-shaft crusher, shredded at a rotary blade speed of 100 rpm and a feed rate of 800 kg / h. The average crushing time for a single waste paint can is 15 seconds, yielding uniform fragments measuring 5 cm x 10 cm. The fragments are then mixed with a 5% sodium hydroxide solution and subjected to a hot alkaline reaction in a tank reactor. The reaction temperature is controlled at 80°C, the stirring speed is 100 rpm, and the reaction time is 1.5 hours. Exhaust gases generated during the reaction are purified through an activated carbon adsorption tower before being discharged. After the reaction, the fragments are transferred to a vibrating screening machine and cleaned through a spray system with a water pressure of 0.3 MPa, a water flow rate of 8 L / min, and a cleaning time of 8 minutes. The cleaned wastewater is then transferred to a wastewater collection tank. The cleaned wastewater is then transferred to a sedimentation tank for 24 hours. The supernatant is then returned to the reaction unit for reuse. The precipitate is dehydrated through a belt filter press, reducing the moisture content of the solid residue to 30%, making it easier to transport and dispose of. After testing, the paint coating removal rate reached more than 99%, the cleaned fragments can be used for metal recovery, and the supernatant reflux ratio is 85%, which significantly improves the utilization rate of water resources and chemical reagents.

[0088] In addition, the costing is as follows:

[0089] 1,000 waste paint cans are processed daily, with a recycling price of approximately 6 yuan per can. The average energy consumption per can is approximately 1.5 kWh, and each can consume approximately 0.2 kg of sodium hydroxide. Therefore, this process has considerable economic value and can effectively alleviate the environmental pollution caused by waste paint cans.

[0090] The present invention uses specific examples to illustrate the principles and implementation methods of the present invention. The above examples are only intended to help understand the method and core concept of the present invention. At the same time, those skilled in the art will find that the specific implementation methods and application scopes may vary based on the concept of the present invention. In summary, the contents of this specification should not be construed as limiting the present invention.
