Description

TECHNICAL FIELD

[0001] The present application relates to the technical field of air water production, in particular to a water production process using carbon crystal temperature difference. BACKGROUND

[0002] The atmosphere contains a large amount of water vapor, which can be condensed into liquid water under certain conditions. Producing water from air can make full use of this abundant water resource and provide a new way to solve the problem of water shortage. It can provide clean drinking water for local residents in arid areas, remote mountainous areas and islands lacking fresh water resources, guarantee basic water demand and improve people's quality of life.

[0003] Chinese patent (publication number: CN116201204B), the scheme specifically includes: a shell having an air passage inside, the air passage is divided into space one and space two by respectively arranging an air inlet fan and an air outlet fan at both ends of the air passage; a condenser and an evaporator, the evaporator is arranged in the space one, the condenser is connected with the evaporator through a heat exchange assembly, which is used for improving the enthalpy difference of the inhaled humid air and condensing water after heat exchange; a water collecting assembly is arranged below the evaporator and is used for collecting condensed water, a drain port is arranged in the air passage below the evaporator and communicates with the water collecting assembly; in the present application, the air passage is divided into a temperature rising space and a water production space, so that the introduced air is fully heated before water production, the two steps are independent and carried out in sequence without affecting each other, which not only improves the water production efficiency, but also makes the residence time of the air more sufficient and the water in the introduced air is collected as much as possible.

[0004] In the existing air water production equipment, the space size of the cooling area is usually fixed, and the flow path of the natural air in the cooling area is difficult to be effectively adjusted, which leads to the fact that the equipment cannot flexibly optimize the water vapor collection efficiency according to the change of the external air humidity during the operation process.

[0005] Most of the existing air water production devices rely on multiple air outlet fans to realize forced convection of air, as shown in the above patent, this design not only makes it difficult to realize natural flow of air according to air humidity, but also increases energy consumption while being difficult to further improve the collection efficiency of water vapor. Specifically, when the air humidity is high, the flow rate of the natural air in the cooling area is too fast, which may cause the water vapor to escape from the cooling area before being fully condensed; when the air humidity is low, the flow rate of the natural air in the cooling area is too slow, which may cause the residence time of the air in the cooling area to be too long, thereby reducing the collection efficiency of the water vapor, and further making the existing air water production equipment difficult to realize efficient and energy-saving water vapor collection process under different humidity conditions.

[0049] The technical solutions in the embodiments of the present application will be clearly and completely described with reference to the drawings in the embodiments of the present application. Obviously, the described embodiments are only part of the embodiments of the present application, rather than all the embodiments of the present application. Based on the embodiments in the present application, all other embodiments obtained by a person of ordinary skill in the art without creative effort belong to the scope of protection of the present application.

[0050] Please refer to Figures 1 to 11 The present application provides a technical solution: a water production process using carbon crystal temperature difference, comprising the following steps:

[0051] S1, condensation and temperature difference convection: external natural air enters the cooling area 101 through the air inlet duct 3, and the surface temperature of the carbon crystal moisture production sheet 8 in the cooling area 101 is reduced through the refrigeration system, so as to promote the condensation of water vapor in the air in the cooling area 101, and the temperature of the condensed gas in the return area 102 is increased through the heat exchange system, so as to enhance the air convection and make the air carrying water vapor enter the cooling area 101;

[0052] S2, air convection parameter optimization: according to the humidity value of the external air, the effective operation area of the cooling area 101 and the return area 102 is adjusted, and the flow path of the natural air in the cooling area 101 is optimized synchronously;

[0053] S3, water droplet collection and preliminary storage: under the action of air convection and gravity, the water droplets in the cooling area 101 gradually increase and gather into water droplets, and then flow downward and gather into the storage tank below through the water outlet 2;

[0054] S4, preliminary purification: the water source gathered in the storage tank is treated to ensure that the water meeting the requirements enters the subsequent treatment link, and the preliminarily treated water source is introduced into the sedimentation tank;

[0055] S5, deep purification and water quality improvement:

[0056] S51, multi-stage sedimentation: the sedimentation tank is designed with multi-stage sedimentation, which further removes suspended solids and impurities in the water by gravity sedimentation, and a inclined plate sedimentation device is arranged in the sedimentation tank to improve the sedimentation efficiency;

[0057] S52, purification treatment: a multi-stage purification process is adopted, including sand filtration, activated carbon adsorption and ultraviolet disinfection, a mineralization treatment process is adopted, natural minerals are added to make the water body rich in minerals beneficial to human body, improve the health of water quality, a magnetization treatment process is adopted, so that the water body has better solubility and permeability, and the quality of the water is improved;

[0058] S53, water quality classification: according to different water demand, the treated water is divided into drinking water, domestic water and agricultural water, drinking water meets the national drinking water standard, domestic water meets the domestic water standard, and agricultural water meets the irrigation water standard;

[0059] S6, water source storage and distribution: the treated water source is transported to the reservoir through the pipeline for storage, the reservoir is provided with a liquid level sensor and a water quality monitoring device for real-time monitoring of the water level and water quality, and the reservoir outputs water to different use scenarios through a distribution system and adjusts the water supply according to the water demand to ensure the reasonable distribution of water resources.

[0060] As shown in Figure 1 , the high-efficiency refrigeration system is started to cool the refrigerant to a set low temperature through the action of the compressor and the condenser, and the low-temperature-resistant pipeline is used to transport the refrigerant to the internal circulation system of the carbon crystal moisture control sheet 8. The moisture control sheet is made of a metal material with high thermal conductivity to ensure that the cold energy of the refrigerant can be quickly transferred to the surface. In the cooling area 101, the surface temperature of the water tower 1 is significantly lower than the ambient air temperature, forming a cold-hot temperature difference. According to the principle of thermodynamics, when the water vapor in the air encounters a low-temperature surface, it will quickly condense into water droplets. The surface of the carbon crystal moisture control sheet 8 is coated with a hydrophilic nano material that can attract water vapor in the air and guide it to move to the surface of the carbon crystal moisture control sheet 8.

[0061] At the same time, according to the real-time humidity value of the external air, the effective operation area of the cooling area 101 and the backflow area 102 is dynamically changed to change the flow path of the gas in the cooling area 101. When the air humidity is high, the area of the cooling area 101 is appropriately increased, and the flow rate of the air in the cooling area 101 is slowed down to ensure that the water vapor in the air can be captured, thereby performing a "slow capture and slow flow" water collection method for high-humidity air. At the same time, when the air humidity decreases, the area of the cooling area 101 is appropriately reduced, and the flow rate of the air in the cooling area 101 is increased to increase the air convection intensity, thereby performing a "fast capture and fast flow" water collection method for low-humidity air, so that the air humidity can be collected in different degrees according to the different air humidity, thereby improving the collection efficiency of the air moisture.

[0062] At the same time, the air passing through the cooling area 101 will flow downward due to the decrease in temperature and the collection of moisture, and the water vapor captured in the cooling area 101 will gradually gather into water droplets and flow downward, eventually flowing into the storage tank below through the water outlet 2. In the storage tank, the water source is preliminarily treated by an external treatment device, and after treatment, the water source is introduced into the next treatment process.

[0063] The process employs a multi-stage purification system, including sand filtration, activated carbon adsorption, and ultraviolet disinfection. Sand filtration removes suspended solids and particulate matter from the water; activated carbon adsorption removes organic matter and odors; ultraviolet disinfection kills bacteria and viruses; the addition of natural minerals enriches the water with beneficial minerals, thus improving its healthiness; and a magnetization device magnetizes the water, giving it better solubility and permeability, further enhancing its quality and making it suitable for agricultural irrigation and domestic use. Subsequently, the deeply treated water is classified according to water demand, ensuring it meets the required treatment standards.

[0064] Meanwhile, the treated water is transported to a reservoir for storage through pipelines. The reservoir is designed to prevent leakage, ensuring the safe storage of water resources. The reservoir is equipped with level sensors and water quality monitoring devices to monitor water level and quality in real time. The reservoir distributes water to different usage scenarios through a distribution system. The distribution system adopts an intelligent control system that automatically adjusts the water supply according to water demand, ensuring the rational allocation of water resources.

[0065] The preliminary water purification in step S4 includes the following steps:

[0066] S41. Automatic sewage discharge: An automatic sewage discharge device is installed at the bottom of the storage tank. It uses a timed or level-controlled method to periodically discharge the sediment and impurities at the bottom of the storage tank. The sewage discharge device achieves the purpose of discharging sediment through electric valves and sewage pipes.

[0067] S42. Wastewater separation: A wastewater separation device is installed inside the storage tank. Using the principles of gravity sedimentation and filtration, impurities and pollutants in the water are separated. The separated wastewater is discharged through an independent pipe to ensure that the water in the storage tank is relatively clean.

[0068] S43. Water quality monitoring: Install water quality sensors in the storage tank to monitor the content of pollutants in the water in real time.

[0069] like Figure 1 As shown, a high-efficiency automatic sewage discharge device is installed at the bottom of the storage tank. Its core function is to periodically remove the sediment and impurities accumulated at the bottom of the storage tank. Using timed or level control technology, it can automatically trigger the sewage discharge operation according to the preset time interval or the height of the liquid level in the storage tank. During the sewage discharge process, the electric valve will open precisely, allowing the sediment at the bottom of the storage tank to be smoothly discharged through a specially designed sewage discharge pipe. The sewage discharge pipe is made of corrosion-resistant materials to ensure good performance and reliability during long-term operation.

[0070] The sewage separation and purification device is arranged in the storage pool, and its working principle is based on gravity sedimentation and filtration principle. When water flows into the storage pool, heavier impurities and pollutants will naturally settle to the bottom of the pool under the action of gravity to form a sediment layer. Meanwhile, the filtration unit in the sewage separation and purification device adopts multi-layer filtration medium such as sand, activated carbon and the like, which can effectively intercept and adsorb suspended solids, organic matter and odor substances in water. The separated sewage is discharged through an independent pipeline, so that the water in the storage pool is always kept relatively clean, thereby providing a good basis for subsequent deep treatment.

[0071] In order to grasp the change of water quality in the storage pool in real time and ensure that the water entering the subsequent treatment link meets the requirements, high-precision water quality sensors are installed in the storage pool. These sensors can continuously monitor the content of various pollutants in water, including but not limited to turbidity, chemical oxygen demand, ammonia nitrogen and other key indicators.

[0072] In one preferred embodiment, a water production process using carbon crystal temperature difference includes a water production tower 1 and a water outlet 2 and an air inlet duct 3 arranged thereon. The water production tower 1 is provided with a refrigeration system and a heat exchange device. The water production tower 1 is provided with an adjustable cooling area 101 and a backflow area 102, and a variable resistance flow mechanism for effectively adjusting the flow area and gas flow path.

[0073] The variable resistance flow mechanism includes a claw disc 4 fixedly connected to the inner wall of the water production tower 1. A top sealing ring 9 freely rotates in the horizontal direction is rotationally fixed to the top of the water production tower 1. A plurality of conical seats 5 are arranged between the top sealing ring 9 and the claw disc 4. The plurality of conical seats 5 divide the internal space of the water production tower 1 into the cooling area 101 and the backflow area 102.

[0074] The water production tower 1 is provided with a shaft shifting assembly for synchronously deflecting the plurality of conical seats 5. The side of the plurality of conical seats 5 facing the backflow area 102 is fixedly connected with a circulating pipeline 6. The circulating pipeline 6 is fixedly penetrated between the heat exchanger. The side of the plurality of conical seats 5 facing the cooling area 101 is fixedly connected with a carbon crystal humidity piece 8. The carbon crystal humidity piece 8 circulates with a cooling liquid.

[0075] The carbon crystal humidity piece 8 is fixedly connected with a plurality of central fin plates 17 inclined downward. The cooling area 101 is provided with a plurality of side guide plates 19 staggered with the plurality of central fin plates 17 and inclined downward. The water production tower 1 is provided with a swing radius assembly for adjusting the horizontal inclination angle of the side guide plates 19.

[0076] The plurality of conical seats 5 form the backflow area 102, and adjacent two conical seats 5 slide with each other. The claw disc 4 is provided with a backflow gas hole 12 for the gas in the cooling area 101 to enter the backflow area 102. The top sealing ring 9 is provided with a flow discharge gas hole 13 for the gas in the backflow area 102 to be discharged.

[0077] AsFigure 2 、 Figure 3 、 Figure 5 、 Figure 8 and Figure 11 As shown in the drawings, a plurality of conical seats 5 are arranged inside the water making tower 1, and adjacent conical seats 5 are in sliding contact with each other to divide the interior space of the water making tower 1 into relatively closed cooling area 101 and backflow area 102. The cooling area 101 and the backflow area 102 are in gas communication through the backflow air holes 12 on the claw disc 4. The air entering the cooling area 101 through the air inlet duct 3 can drive the low-temperature cooling liquid to circulate at the carbon crystal humidifying sheet 8 under the action of the refrigeration system, thereby reducing the surface temperature of the carbon crystal humidifying sheet 8, and achieving the purpose of capturing water vapor in the air in the cooling area 101.

[0078] At the same time, the side of the plurality of conical seats 5 facing the backflow area 102 is provided with a circulating pipeline 6, and water source circulates in the circulating pipeline 6. The circulating pipeline 6 is in communication with the heat exchange equipment, which can replace the evaporator temperature in the refrigeration equipment into the water source in the circulating pipeline 6, and then raise the gas temperature in the backflow area 102 through the circulating pipeline 6. The gas in the backflow area 102 moves upward after the temperature rises, and escapes out of the backflow area 102 through the exhaust air hole 13.

[0079] At the same time, the air passing through the cooling area 101 is cooled and moves to the bottom space of the water making tower 1. The backflow area 102 is in communication with the cooling area 101. After the gas in the backflow area 102 escapes due to heating, the low-temperature air in the bottom space of the water making tower 1 enters the backflow area 102 through the backflow air hole 12, thereby realizing the convection of air. After the low-temperature air in the bottom space of the water making tower 1 enters the backflow area 102, external air can enter the cooling area 101 through a plurality of air inlet ducts 3, thereby capturing water vapor in the air entering the cooling area 101 subsequently, so that the water vapor is captured on the plurality of carbon crystal humidifying sheets 8 and the center fin 17 arranged thereon, and the forced convection of air is realized without external exhaust fan.

[0080] It should be noted that during actual use, when the humidity of external air is different, the plurality of conical seats 5 are driven by the shaft shifting assembly to freely deflect in the horizontal direction, thereby changing the space size of the backflow area 102 and the cooling area 101, and the space size of the two changes in opposite directions. When the air humidity is high, the shaft shifting assembly appropriately increases the area of the cooling area 101, and increases the space size of the backflow area 102 at the same time, and cooperates with the swing radius assembly to slow down the flow rate of air in the cooling area 101, so as to ensure that the water vapor in the air can be captured, thereby realizing the water collection mode of "slow capture and slow flow rate" for high-humidity air.

[0081] Further, the shaft shifting assembly comprises equidistant multi-edge grooves 7 provided on the claw disc 4 and slidably connected with the plurality of sets of conical seats 5, and a plurality of sets of positioning pins 10 are fixedly connected to the side of the plurality of sets of conical seats 5 towards the top sealing ring 9, and the top sealing ring 9 is provided with axial positioning grooves 11 slidably connected with the plurality of sets of positioning pins 10;

[0082] The outer circumferential surface of the top sealing ring 9 is fixedly sleeved with a tooth ring 14, the water making tower 1 is fixedly connected with a motor for driving the tooth ring 14 to rotate horizontally, the tooth ring 14 is fixedly connected with a scale pointer 15, and the water making tower 1 is fixedly connected with a scale table 16 corresponding to the position of the scale pointer 15.

[0083] As shown in Figure 3 , Figure 5 , Figure 8 , Figure 10 and Figure 11 , the tooth ring 14 driven by the motor and in transmission connection therewith is rotated in the horizontal direction, thereby synchronously rotating the top sealing ring 9 fixedly coaxial with the tooth ring 14, wherein the positioning pins 10 fixedly arranged on the plurality of sets of conical seats 5 are slidably connected on the top sealing ring 9 through the axial positioning grooves 11, and the bottom of the conical seat 5 is slidably connected on the claw disc 4 through the equidistant multi-edge grooves 7, and through the arrangement of the equidistant multi-edge grooves 7, the conical seat 5 can be prevented from being separated from the claw disc 4, and through the rotation of the top sealing ring 9, the plurality of sets of conical seats 5 can be slid on the equidistant multi-edge grooves 7 to drive the plurality of sets of conical seats 5 to synchronously deflect in the horizontal direction.

[0084] Meanwhile, the plurality of sets of conical seats 5 are provided with the circulation pipes 6 to form a backflow area 102, and after the plurality of sets of conical seats 5 are deflected, the overlapping area of the plurality of sets of circulation pipes 6 can be changed, thereby changing the spatial size of the backflow area 102, so as to dynamically change the effective area of the cooling area 101 and the backflow area 102 during movement according to the humidity parameter of the outside air temperature, thereby changing the air flow rate in the cooling area 101.

[0085] Meanwhile, when the tooth ring 14 rotates, the scale pointer 15 fixedly arranged thereon can be driven to synchronously rotate, thereby changing the relative position of the scale pointer 15 and the scale table 16, so as to facilitate the staff to know the change of the spatial size of the cooling area 101 and the backflow area 102 according to the pointing position of the scale pointer 15 on the scale table 16.

[0086] On the basis of the embodiment of the shaft shifting assembly, the swing radius assembly comprises a plurality of sets of shaft ring seats 18 arranged in the cooling area 101, the plurality of sets of shaft ring seats 18 are fixedly connected to the inner wall of the water making tower 1, and the plurality of sets of shaft ring seats 18 are equidistantly arranged in the vertical direction, and the side of the plurality of sets of shaft ring seats 18 towards the central fin plate 17 is fixedly connected with the side position flow guide plate 19.

[0087] The cooling zone 101 is provided with a vertically movable upright rod 20. A matching pin 21 is fixedly connected to the side of the side guide plate 19 facing the upright rod 20. An oblique matching groove 22 is provided on the side guide plate 19 for the matching pin 21 to slide. A notch is provided on the collar seat 18 for the upright rod 20 to slide.

[0088] An I-shaped ring 23 is fixedly sleeved on the top sealing ring 9. An adjusting pin 24 is fixedly connected to the side of the upright rod 20 facing the I-shaped ring 23. A spiral adjusting groove 25 is opened on the I-shaped ring 23 for the adjusting pin 24 to slide through.

[0089] like Figures 3-7 As shown, when the toothed ring 14 and the top sealing ring 9 rotate horizontally, they can drive the I-shaped ring 23 to rotate synchronously. The upright rod 20 set in the cooling zone 101 can only move up and down due to the notch slots opened on the multiple sets of shaft ring seats 18. The adjusting pins 24 fixedly set on the multiple sets of upright rods 20 are slidably connected to the I-shaped ring 23 through the spiral adjusting groove 25. Therefore, when the I-shaped ring 23 rotates horizontally, the horizontal height of the upright rod 20 can be changed through the spiral adjusting groove 25 opened on it.

[0090] Meanwhile, the side guide plate 19 rotates on the collar seat 18 with a fixed axis, and the corresponding pin 21 fixed on the side guide plate 19 is slidably connected to the upright rod 20 through the inclined corresponding groove 22. When the horizontal height of the upright rod 20 changes, the horizontal tilt angle of the side guide plate 19 can be changed through the inclined corresponding groove 22 and the corresponding pin 21. Specifically, when the humidity of the outside air is high, the spatial size of the cooling zone 101 is increased and the spatial size of the return zone 102 is decreased at the same time. At this time, since the spatial size of the return zone 102 is smaller and the amount of gas in it is less, the amount of gas that escapes from the return zone 102 due to heat is less, which in turn causes the flow rate in the cooling zone 101 to decrease. At the same time, the horizontal tilt angle of the collar seat 18 is smaller, that is, the slope of the collar seat 18 is gentler, which slows down the flow rate of the gas in the cooling zone 101, thereby increasing the residence time of the high humidity gas in the cooling zone 101 and improving the capture efficiency of water vapor in it.

[0091] Although embodiments of the invention have been shown and described, it will be understood by those skilled in the art that various changes, modifications, substitutions and alterations can be made to these embodiments without departing from the principles and spirit of the invention, the scope of which is defined by the appended claims and their equivalents.
