[0021] As shown in Figure 1 A method for adjusting the moisture control of a spray granulation powder, comprising the following steps: Step 1: Set the initial operating parameters of the main fan frequency conversion, natural gas pressure, natural gas flow and slurry plunger pump pressure, and run the spray drying chamber; In detail, start the main fan. The main fan frequency conversion is set to (38-47) Hz, so that the relative pressure in the spray drying chamber is maintained at (-42-32) Pa. Press the burner ignition button, and after the natural gas in the burner is normally burned, the natural gas pressure is controlled at (8-10) kPa, and the flow is controlled at (98-110) m 3 / h. Increase the inlet temperature of the hot air into the chamber, and within 30 min, the inlet temperature in the drying chamber is increased to (400-460) ℃, and the outlet temperature is increased to (220-240) ℃.

[0022] Start the slurry plunger pump, adjust the slurry pipeline pressure to (1.6-1.9) MPa, open the valve at the front end of the centrifugal atomizer pipeline, start spray granulation, and the outlet temperature in the drying chamber gradually decreases to (120-140) ℃.

[0023] Step 2: Determine the moisture value of the powder at the discharge port of the spray drying chamber by using an infrared moisture meter, and send the powder moisture value measured by the infrared moisture meter to the industrial computer. Sample the powder at the discharge port of the spray drying chamber, and determine the powder moisture value by using a general moisture meter The probe part of the online infrared moisture meter measures the moisture of the powder flowing on the belt every 5 min, and transmits the signal to the industrial computer connected to the main machine.

[0024] The sample is taken manually from the discharge port, stirred uniformly, weighed (6-8) g, and placed in a normal moisture meter for heating.

[0025] Step three, comparing the powder moisture value measured by the normal moisture meter, the powder moisture value measured by the infrared moisture meter, and the powder moisture process range requirement; Step four, adjusting the inlet temperature of the spray drying chamber or the pressure of the slurry piston pump until the powder moisture value measured by the normal moisture meter meets the process range requirement, and adjusting the translation amount in the industrial computer until the difference between the powder moisture display value on the industrial computer and the powder moisture value measured by the normal moisture meter is within the error range; Among them, adjusting the inlet temperature of the spray drying chamber or the pressure of the slurry piston pump until the powder moisture value measured by the normal moisture meter meets the process range requirement includes: When the powder moisture value measured by the normal moisture meter exceeds the upper limit of the process range requirement, increasing the inlet temperature of the spray drying chamber or reducing the pressure of the slurry piston pump; When the powder moisture value measured by the normal moisture meter is lower than the lower limit of the process range requirement, reducing the inlet temperature of the spray drying chamber or increasing the pressure of the slurry piston pump.

[0026] Specifically, the powder moisture value range required by the process is 0.6%-1.0%, the increased inlet temperature of the spray drying chamber is maintained at (425-485) ℃, and the reduced inlet temperature of the spray drying chamber is maintained at (385-425) ℃. There are multiple ways to adjust the inlet temperature, at least including adjusting the natural gas flow.

[0028] Optionally, the error range is set to -0.1%-0.1%, the powder moisture value measured by the normal moisture meter is 0.1% higher than the powder moisture display value on the industrial computer, the "control parameter" translation amount in the program of the industrial computer needs to be translated, and based on the translation amount, 0.05 is added. The powder moisture value measured by the normal moisture meter is 0.1% lower than the powder moisture display value on the industrial computer, and the translation amount needs to be reduced by 0.05. The difference between the normal value and the control value is within 0.1%, and the industrial computer can be put into the automatic state from the manual state without adjustment.

[0029] This invention monitors moving powders, introduces an online infrared moisture meter, and implements upgrades tailored to specific circumstances. Through a series of environmental and energy-saving measures, it reduces adverse environmental impacts, improves resource utilization efficiency, and achieves sustainable development. Specifically, these measures include improving production processes, strengthening pollution control, reducing waste gas and wastewater emissions, improving environmental quality, and protecting ecological balance. This has positive implications for alleviating environmental issues such as air and water pollution, and contributes to building a green, low-carbon ecosystem.

[0030] The present invention mainly controls the opening size of the natural gas valve, the pressure flow of natural gas, the inlet temperature, the plunger pump pressure, the fan frequency conversion size and other parameters to form solid powder or hollow spherical granular powder. The distribution of powder moisture and particle size meets the requirements of process regulations.

[0031] Example 1 For better explanation, let's take a spray granulation drying room as an example. The powder moisture control range is (0.6-1.0)%. The baseline value of the industrial computer is 2.0; The working principle of a spray drying chamber is to introduce hot air from natural gas combustion into the drying chamber from the top. A centrifugal atomizer in the center of the drying chamber, driven by a high-pressure pump, sprays liquid droplets upward from the bottom. These droplets come into contact with the hot air, instantly evaporating most of the droplets' moisture. The droplets gradually dry and solidify into a powder or granular product (hereinafter referred to as powder). Within the drying chamber, the airflow also gradually transforms the particles into fine, hollow spherical particles.

[0032] An online infrared moisture meter is installed vertically on the conveyor belt below the spray chamber discharge port. The probe of the online infrared moisture meter accurately measures the moisture content of the powder flowing on the belt and transmits the signal to the host computer, which is connected to the industrial computer. The industrial computer is installed with conditional system software to set the median value and upper and lower limits of the powder moisture control. An electric actuator is installed at the front end of the natural gas burner, and its adjustment is controlled by an industrial computer. Based on the moisture signal transmitted by the main engine, the industrial computer analyzes and determines whether the moisture content is within the upper and lower limits of the powder's median moisture content. If it is outside these limits, the industrial computer sends a signal to the electric actuator to adjust the opening of the natural gas valve, that is, the natural gas flow rate, to control the temperature of the hot air entering the room, thereby controlling the instantaneous evaporation rate of the majority of the water droplets in the atomized mud.

[0033] In the first stage, start the main fan. Adjust the frequency of the main fan to (38-40) Hz to keep the relative pressure in the spray drying chamber at (-35--32) Pa. Press the burner ignition button. After the natural gas in the burner burns normally, the natural gas pressure is controlled at (8-10) kPa and the flow rate is controlled at (105-110) m 3 / h; The temperature of the hot air into the drying chamber is increased by increasing the flow of natural gas, and the temperature of the inlet of the drying chamber is increased to (450-460) °C and the temperature of the outlet is increased to (220-240) °C within 30 minutes. The slurry plunger pump is started, the pressure of the slurry pipeline is adjusted to (1.6-1.7) MPa, the valve at the front end of the centrifugal atomizer pipeline is opened, the spray granulation is started, and the temperature of the outlet of the drying chamber is gradually decreased to (120-140) °C. The moisture of the powder flowing on the belt is measured every 5 minutes by the on-line infrared moisture meter probe, and the signal is transmitted to the industrial computer connected to the main machine. Specifically, during the starting stage, the parameter adjustment changes are shown in Table 1: Table 1, adjustment table during the starting stage

[0034] In the second stage, the sample is taken from the discharge port by hand, stirred evenly, weighed (6-8) g, placed in a general moisture meter for heating, and after completion, the data displayed on the instrument (referred to as the general value) are compared with the process range. The process range requires that the moisture value of the powder is in the range of 0.6%-1.0%: If the general value is higher than the upper limit (1.0%), the following method is used for adjustment: The flow of natural gas is controlled at (110-112) m 3 / h. The temperature of the hot air into the drying chamber is adjusted so that the temperature of the inlet of the drying chamber is (465-485) °C; or the inlet temperature remains unchanged, and the pressure of the slurry plunger pump is reduced to (1.3-1.5) MPa. Table 2 shows the adjustment table when the general value is higher than the upper limit of the process range: Table 2, adjustment table when the general value is higher than the upper limit of the process range

[0035] If the general value is lower than the lower limit (0.6%), the following method is used for adjustment: the flow of natural gas is controlled at (102-105) m 3 / h. The temperature of the hot air into the drying chamber is adjusted so that the temperature of the inlet of the drying chamber is (425-445) °C. Or the inlet temperature remains unchanged, and the pump pressure is increased to (1.7-1.8) MPa. Table 3 shows the adjustment table when the general value is lower than the lower limit of the process range: Table 3, adjustment table when the general value is lower than the lower limit of the process range

[0036] In the third stage, the value displayed on the industrial computer (referred to as the control value) is compared with the general value: If the process value is higher than the control value by 0.1%, the "control parameter" in the program of the industrial computer is translated by 0.05 based on the reference value; if the process value is lower than the control value by 0.1%, the translation is reduced by 0.05. If the process value is within 0.1% of the control value, no adjustment is needed. The industrial computer is switched from manual to automatic state, and the translation changes are shown in Table 4: Table 4, translation changes

[0037] Through the adjustment of the above-mentioned parameters, the difference between the measured value of the infrared moisture meter and the reference value measured by the ordinary moisture meter is reduced, and the deviation between the reference value and the infrared measured value is corrected by adjusting the translation. After the present embodiment, the moisture measurement results and effects of the powder are as shown in Table 5: Table 5, deviation of two measured values and effect evaluation

[0038] Effect evaluation criteria: within 0.03 deviation, excellent; within 0.06 deviation, good; within 0.1 deviation, better. As can be seen from Table 5, the deviation between the adjusted powder moisture and the reference value and the infrared measured value meets the requirements.

[0039] Example 2 For better illustration, an example of a spray granulation drying chamber is given, and the powder moisture control range is (0.6-1.0)%. The reference value of the industrial computer is 2.0; An online infrared moisture meter is installed in the vertical direction of the transport belt below the discharge port of the spray chamber. The probe part of the online infrared moisture meter accurately measures the moisture of the powder flowing on the belt and transmits the signal to the main machine. The main machine is connected to the industrial computer, and the industrial computer is installed with conditional system software to set the powder moisture control median value and upper and lower limits; An electric actuator is installed at the front end of the natural gas burner, and the adjustment of the actuator is controlled by the industrial computer. The industrial computer analyzes and judges whether the powder moisture is within the upper and lower limit range of the median value based on the moisture signal from the main machine. If it exceeds this range, the industrial computer sends a signal instruction to the electric actuator to adjust the opening size of the natural gas valve, i.e. the flow rate of the natural gas, to control the temperature of the hot air entering the chamber, thereby controlling the instantaneous evaporation rate of most of the liquid droplets in the atomized slurry.

[0040] In the first stage, the main fan is started. The main fan is frequency-adjusted to (41-43) Hz to keep the relative pressure in the spray drying chamber at (-36- -38) Pa. The burner ignition button is pressed, and after the natural gas in the burner burns normally, the natural gas pressure is controlled at (8-10) kPa, and the flow rate is controlled at (102-105) m 3 / h.

[0041] The temperature of the hot air into the drying chamber is increased by increasing the flow of natural gas, and the temperature of the inlet of the drying chamber is increased to (420-430) °C and the temperature of the outlet is increased to (220-240) °C within 30 minutes.

[0042] The slurry plunger pump is started, the pressure of the slurry pipeline is adjusted to (1.7-1.8) MPa, the valve at the front end of the centrifugal atomizer pipeline is opened, and the spray granulation is started. The temperature of the outlet of the drying chamber is gradually decreased to (120-140) °C. The moisture of the powder flowing on the belt is measured every 5 minutes by the on-line infrared moisture meter probe, and the signal is transmitted to the industrial computer connected to the main machine. The first stage adjustment changes are shown in Table 6: Table 6, first stage adjustment table

[0043] In the second stage, the sample is taken from the discharge port manually, and after being stirred evenly, (6-8) g is weighed and placed in a general moisture meter for heating. After completion, the data displayed on the instrument (hereinafter referred to as the general value) are compared with the values displayed on the industrial computer (hereinafter referred to as the control value). The process range requires that the moisture value of the powder be in the range of 0.6%-1.0%: If the general value is higher than the upper limit (1.0%), the following method is used for adjustment: The flow of natural gas is controlled at (106-110) m 3 / h. The temperature of the hot air into the drying chamber is adjusted so that the temperature of the inlet of the drying chamber is (435-455) °C; or the inlet temperature remains unchanged, and the pump pressure is adjusted to (1.4-1.6) MPa. Table 7 is the adjustment table when the general value is higher than the upper limit (1.0%): Table 7, adjustment table when the general value is higher than the upper limit (1.0%)

[0044] If the general value is lower than the lower limit (0.6%), the following method is used for adjustment: the flow of natural gas is controlled at (96-100) m 3 / h. The temperature of the hot air into the drying chamber is adjusted so that the temperature of the inlet of the drying chamber is (400-420) °C. Or the inlet temperature remains unchanged, and the pump pressure is adjusted to (1.8-1.9) MPa. Table 8 is the adjustment table when the general value is lower than the lower limit (0.6%): Table 8, adjustment table when the general value is lower than the lower limit (0.6%)

[0045] In the third stage, the value displayed on the industrial computer (hereinafter referred to as the control value) is compared with the general value: If the process value is higher than the control value by 0.1%, the "control parameter" in the program of the industrial computer is translated by 0.05 based on the reference value; if the process value is lower than the control value by 0.1%, the translation is reduced by 0.05. If the process value is within 0.1% of the control value, no adjustment is needed. The industrial computer is switched from manual to automatic state, and the translation adjustment is shown in Table 9: Table 9, translation adjustment table

[0046] By adjusting the above parameters, the difference between the measured value of the infrared moisture meter and the reference value measured by the ordinary moisture meter is reduced, and the deviation between the reference value and the infrared measured value is corrected by adjusting the translation. After the present embodiment, the moisture measurement results and effects of the powder are shown in Table 10: Table 10, deviation of two measured values and effect evaluation

[0047] Effect evaluation standard: within 0.03 deviation, excellent; within 0.06 deviation, good; within 0.1 deviation, better. As can be seen from Table 10, the deviation between the adjusted powder moisture and the reference value and the infrared measured value meets the requirements.

[0048] Example 3 In order to better illustrate, now take a spray granulation drying chamber as an example, the powder moisture control range is (0.6-1.0)%. The reference value of the industrial computer is 2.0; A online infrared moisture meter is installed in the vertical direction of the transport belt below the discharge port of the spray chamber. The probe part of the online infrared moisture meter accurately measures the moisture of the powder flowing on the belt and transmits the signal to the main machine. The main machine is connected with the industrial computer, and the industrial computer is installed with conditional system software to set the middle value and upper and lower limits of the powder moisture control; An electric actuator is installed at the front end of the natural gas burner, and the adjustment of the actuator is controlled by the industrial computer. According to the moisture signal transmitted by the main machine, the industrial computer analyzes and judges whether it is within the upper and lower limits of the middle value of the powder moisture. If it exceeds this range, the industrial computer sends a signal instruction to the electric actuator to adjust the opening size of the natural gas valve, i.e. the flow of natural gas, to control the temperature of the hot air entering the room, so as to control the instantaneous evaporation rate of most of the liquid droplets in the atomized slurry.

[0049] In the first stage, the main fan is started. The main fan is frequency converted to (45-47) Hz to keep the relative pressure in the spray drying chamber at (-40- -42) Pa. Press the burner ignition button, and after the natural gas in the burner is normally burned, the natural gas pressure is controlled at (8-10) kPa, and the flow is controlled at (98-101) m 3 / h.

[0050] By increasing the opening of the front end electric actuator of the natural gas burner, the natural gas flow is increased to increase the hot air inlet temperature, and the inlet temperature of the drying chamber is increased to (400-415) °C within 30 min, and the outlet temperature is increased to (220-240) °C.

[0051] The slurry plunger pump is started, the mud pipeline pressure is adjusted to (1.8-1.9) MPa, the valve at the front end of the centrifugal atomizer pipeline is opened, the spray granulation is started, and the outlet temperature of the drying chamber is gradually decreased to (120-140) °C. The moisture content of the powder flowing on the belt is measured every 5 min by the on-line infrared moisture meter probe, and the signal is transmitted to the industrial computer connected with the main machine. The adjustment process table in the starting stage is shown in Table 11: Table 11, adjustment process table in the starting stage

[0052] In the second stage, the sample is taken from the discharge port manually, and after being stirred uniformly, (6-8) g is weighed and placed in a general moisture meter for heating. After completion, the data displayed on the instrument (hereinafter referred to as the general value) are compared with the values displayed on the industrial computer (hereinafter referred to as the control value).

[0053] When the general value is higher than the upper limit (1.0%), the natural gas flow is controlled at (102-105) m 3 / h. The hot air inlet temperature of the drying chamber is adjusted so that the inlet temperature of the drying chamber is (425-435) °C; or the inlet temperature remains unchanged, and the pump pressure is adjusted to (1.7-1.8) MPa. The adjustment when the powder moisture content measured by the general moisture meter is higher than the upper limit of the process range is shown in Table 12: Table 12, adjustment table when the powder moisture content measured by the general moisture meter is higher than the upper limit of the process range

[0054] When the general value is lower than the lower limit (0.6%), the natural gas flow is controlled at (92-95) m 3 / h. The hot air inlet temperature of the drying chamber is adjusted so that the inlet temperature of the drying chamber is (385-395) °C. Or the inlet temperature remains unchanged, and the pump pressure is adjusted to (1.9-2.0) MPa. The adjustment when the powder moisture content measured by the general moisture meter is lower than the lower limit of the process range is shown in Table 13: Table 13, adjustment table when the powder moisture content measured by the general moisture meter is lower than the lower limit of the process range

[0055] In the third stage, the value displayed on the industrial computer (hereinafter referred to as the control value) is compared with the general value: If the general value is higher than the control value by 0.1%, the control parameter in the program of the industrial computer is translated by 0.05 based on the reference value; if the general value is lower than the control value by 0.1%, the translation is reduced by 0.05. If the difference between the general value and the control value is within 0.1%, no adjustment is needed. The industrial computer is put into the automatic state from the manual state, and the translation of the industrial computer is shown in Table 14: Table 14, translation adjustment table of the industrial computer

[0056] Through the adjustment of the above parameters, the difference between the measured value of the infrared moisture meter and the reference value measured by the ordinary moisture meter is reduced, and the deviation between the reference value and the infrared measured value is corrected by adjusting the translation. After the present embodiment, the moisture measurement results and effects of the powder are shown in Table 15: Table 15, deviation of the two measured values and effect evaluation

[0057] Effect evaluation standard: within 0.03, excellent; within 0.06, good; within 0.1, better. As shown in Table 15, the deviation between the reference value and the infrared measured value of the adjusted powder moisture meets the requirements.
