Abstract
Description
Technical Field

[0002] In industrial production, the operation of rotary kilns produces waste gas with complex components, including harmful components such as sulfur dioxide, fluorides, sulfides, VOCs, as well as fine carbon particles, fly ash and other particulate matter. Currently, the traditional wet desulfurization process has some urgent problems in treating such waste gas, such as:
[0003] 1. Poor adaptability to high-temperature exhaust gas: The exhaust gas temperature of the rotary kiln is high (usually >150°C). Traditional wet desulfurization equipment is easily deformed by heat, and high temperature reduces the SO2 / fluoride absorption efficiency;
[0004] 2. Difficulty in synergistic removal of multiple pollutants: Waste gas contains multiple components such as SO2, fluoride, VOCs, tar, etc., which cannot be removed simultaneously and efficiently by a single process. In particular, fluoride is prone to co-crystallization with desulfurization products (CaSO3 / CaSO4), causing equipment blockage;
[0005] 3. High operating costs: Traditional spray towers require continuous replenishment of fresh desulfurizers (such as limestone), resulting in low slurry recycling rates and large amounts of solid waste.

Each stage of the circulation pool is divided into an oxidation pool, at least two sedimentation pools, and a pH adjustment pool by a partition. The oxidation pool and the sedimentation pool, the sedimentation pools, and the sedimentation pools and pH adjustment pools are connected. The oxidation pool of each stage of the circulation pool is connected to the liquid storage tank of the corresponding cyclone plate tower, and the pH adjustment pool provides spray liquid for the cyclone plate tower. The pH value of the primary circulation pool is 5.0-6.0, which allows the flue gas to remove 80-90% of SO2 in the primary cyclone plate tower.

To ensure the defluorination effect, the spray liquid of the tertiary circulation pool is a Ca(OH)2 solution with a concentration of 15±2%. The present invention adopts a three-stage circulation pool cascade pH control to achieve targeted separation of pollutants in the flue gas, avoid equipment clogging caused by co-crystallization of fluoride and desulfurization products (CaSO3 / CaSO4), and at the same time increase the fluoride removal rate from the conventional 70% to more than 95%.

The filter cake of the filter press of the primary circulating pool is partially mixed back to the inlet of the oxidation tank of the primary circulating pool, and the mixing ratio is 20-40%. The moisture content of the mixed filter cake is ≤30%, which can maintain the Ca(OH)2 activity in the primary circulating pool and reduce the amount of fresh desulfurizer. Overall, this design can save more than 35% of desulfurizer.
[0049] Preferably, as attached Figure 2 As shown, the oxidation tank, sedimentation tank and pH adjustment tank of each stage of the circulation pool are connected to the first-stage cyclone plate tower through pipelines to treat the exhaust gas generated by the circulation pool.
[0050] Preferably, as attached Figure 2 As shown, in this embodiment, the oxidation tank and pH adjustment tank of each stage of the circulation pool and the liquid storage tank of each stage of the cyclone plate tower are provided with an aeration pipe connected to the Roots blower unit 14 to prevent the slurry from settling in the liquid storage tank and the oxidation tank, and at the same time, the oxidation tank and the pH adjustment tank can also be aerated and mixed.

The present invention adopts a vertical or inclined design for the X-shaped duct, which can reduce the probability of clogging of the duct compared to horizontally laid ducts. At the same time, the design of the X-shaped structure can clean the duct through the ash pusher at the top of the duct, which can solve the problem of duct blockage simply and quickly. When cleaning the duct, the pusher plate can be pushed downward to push the accumulated ash in the duct into the air mixing box or dust collector. The semicircular ash pusher does not affect the air supply effect of the duct, and ash cleaning can also be performed during operation. The ash pusher is controlled by the push rod 3.3 and can rotate 360° to achieve ash cleaning without dead angles in the duct.
