[0043] The present invention also provides a method for removing sulfur dioxide from wine using the device described in the above technical solution, comprising the following steps:
[0044] Start the condenser heat exchange, the heating kettle heating and the heat exchanger heat exchange;
[0045] Passing the wine from the raw material inlet into the first condenser for first heat exchange to obtain a first heat-exchanged raw material;
[0046] Passing the heat-exchanged raw material into a heat exchanger for a second heat exchange with the distilled mash to obtain a second heat-exchanged raw material; passing the second heat-exchanged raw material into a heating kettle for heating treatment while nitrogen blowing to obtain wine with sulfur dioxide removed and sulfur dioxide;
[0047] Nitrogen carrying alcohol and sulfur dioxide is condensed in the first condenser and the second condenser, and then enters the gas-water separator for gas-liquid separation to obtain a mixed gas and liquid alcohol respectively; the mixed gas includes nitrogen and sulfur dioxide.
[0048] In the present invention, the method for removing sulfur dioxide from wine preferably further comprises heating the wine solely in a heating kettle and simultaneously nitrogen purging the wine before heat exchange in the condenser and heat exchanger (i.e., when the wine is first introduced), thereby obtaining the wine from which the sulfur dioxide has been removed. In the present invention, the wine from which the sulfur dioxide has been removed is subsequently distilled to obtain a mash; the mash can serve as the heat medium for the heat exchanger, and its use as a heat source can also save energy and improve economic efficiency.
[0049] The present invention starts the heat exchange of the condenser, the heating kettle and the heat exchanger; the wine enters the first condenser from the raw material inlet for the first heat exchange, and obtains the raw material after the first heat exchange.
[0050] As an embodiment of the present invention, the flow rate of the wine is preferably 2 to 4 kL / h. As an embodiment of the present invention, the condensation temperature of the first condenser is preferably 15 to 20°C; As an embodiment of the present invention, the temperature of the raw material after the first heat exchange is preferably 30 to 35°C.
[0051] After obtaining the first heat-exchanged raw material, the present invention passes the heat-exchanged raw material into the heat exchanger 3 for a second heat exchange with the mash to obtain a second heat-exchanged raw material; the second heat-exchanged raw material is passed into the heating kettle for heating treatment and nitrogen blowing at the same time, and after the heating treatment until the wine boils, the nitrogen blowing is continued for 15 to 30 minutes to obtain wine with sulfur dioxide removed and sulfur dioxide; the nitrogen carrying alcohol and sulfur dioxide is condensed through the first condenser and the second condenser, and then enters the gas-water separator for gas-liquid separation to obtain a mixed gas and liquid alcohol respectively; the mixed gas includes nitrogen and sulfur dioxide.
[0052] In the present invention, the first condenser can preliminarily cool the alcohol in the steam obtained after heating in the heating kettle, ensuring the maximum recovery of alcohol (reducing the alcohol content in the exhaust gas and improving economic efficiency), while preheating the raw materials, saving energy and reducing consumption. The second condenser can further condense the alcohol in the steam obtained after heating in the heating kettle (steam from bottom to top, cooling medium from top to bottom, reverse heat exchange), and prepare for subsequent gas-liquid separation.
[0053] As an embodiment of the present invention, the temperature of the raw material after the second heat exchange is 60°C.
[0054] In one embodiment of the present invention, nitrogen carrying trace amounts of alcohol and sulfur dioxide enters the gas-water separator and moves in a downward, swirling flow. Due to the reduced velocity of the swirling nitrogen, the alcohol is separated and accumulated on the inner wall of the gas-water separator under the action of the existing centrifugal force. The dry nitrogen, carrying sulfur dioxide, is then discharged through an automatic valve and discharged from the separator's gas outlet. The gas-water separator has a high alcohol recovery efficiency, and when the gas velocity drops below 13.8 m / s, over 99% of the liquid alcohol can be recovered.
[0055] This invention uses nitrogen blowing to remove sulfur dioxide from wine, preventing oxidation of flavor compounds. Furthermore, nitrogen is insoluble in wine, leaving no residue and introducing no new substances, complying with new national standards. Furthermore, nitrogen is safe and environmentally friendly. Nitrogen blowing requires no additional labor and allows for continuous desulfurization, significantly improving production efficiency. It also fully utilizes the heat of the mash after distillation, improving resource utilization and reducing energy consumption and emissions.
