[0051] The present application provides a soda roaster capable of recovering waste heat and a soda co-production calcium carbonate process thereof.

[0052] First embodiment:

[0056] The waste heat box 3 is internally provided with the heat exchange pipe 12, and the water inlet pipe 13 and the water outlet pipe 14 are integrally arranged at the left and right ends of the heat exchange pipe 12.

[0057] Please refer to Figure 5 : the user starts the adjusting electric cylinder 74 to control the forward and backward movement of the push rod 75;

[0058] Please refer to 4 and Figure 6 : in the initial state, the orientation directions of the middle plate 71 and the side plates 72 about the air inlet frame 5 are consistent, and in this state, the high-temperature flue gas entering from the air inlet frame 5 will wash the heat exchange of the middle section position of the heat exchange pipe 12 through the gap between the middle plate 71 and the side plates 72;

[0059] Please refer to Figure 4 and Figure 7 : the user controls the adjusting electric cylinder 74 to control the push rod 75 to drive the sliding frame 77 to move forward, and in the movement process of the sliding frame 77, the guide wheels 79 in the three limiting grooves 78 are limited by force, at this time, the guide wheels 79 move in the limiting grooves 78 to control the middle plate 71 and the side plates 72 on both sides to form a turning motion to the right side, and at this time, the flue gas in the air inlet frame 5 is blocked and will wash the heat exchange of the side of the heat exchange pipe 12;

[0060] Please refer to Figure 4 and Figure 8 : if the user controls the adjusting electric cylinder 74 to control the push rod 75 to drive the sliding frame 77 to move backward, and in the movement process of the sliding frame 77, the guide wheels 79 in the three limiting grooves 78 are controlled by force to control the middle plate 71 and the side plates 72 on both sides to form a turning motion to the left side, and at this time, the flue gas in the air inlet frame 5 is blocked and will wash the heat exchange of the other side of the heat exchange pipe 12.

[0061] The lengths of the middle plate 71 and the side plates 72 are consistent, and the intervals of the middle plate 71 and the side plates 72 about the inside of the air inlet frame 5 are consistent.

[0062] The push rod 75 is in sliding connection with the sealing installation pipe 10 and the waste heat box 3, and the output end of the push rod 75 is fixedly installed with the side wall of the sliding frame 77.

[0063] The guide wheel 79 is embedded in the three limiting grooves 78, and the sliding frame 77 can slide along the guide direction of the slide rod 76.

[0064] The heat exchange pipe 12 is in a continuous "S" shape structure, the water inlet pipe 13 and the water outlet pipe 14 are respectively sealingly installed with the waste heat box 3, and the outlet end of the flue gas pipe 4 is connected with the outer wall of the air inlet frame 5.

[0065] It can be understood that: please refer to Figures 3 to 5 The sealing installation pipe 10 is sealingly installed on the entire adjusting electric cylinder 74, so that the working sealing property and stability of the adjusting electric cylinder 74 can be ensured, the stability of the sliding frame 77 in the sliding process is ensured by arranging the slide rod 76, and the service life of the guide wheel 79 can be improved by reducing the friction between the guide wheel 79 and the limiting groove 78 during the movement.

[0066] In this embodiment

[0067] Compared with the traditional air inlet frame 5, the flue gas is concentrated in the middle part of the heat exchange surface (the flow rate is too high), and the low-speed "dead zone" is formed on both sides due to the problems of the inlet structure or the arrangement of the pipe bundle;

[0068] By adjusting the angle of the middle plate 71 and the side plate 72 in the left-right direction, the flue gas concentrated in the middle part can be forced to flow to the two side regions, so that the flue gas can fully contact in the entire heat exchange section, the heat exchange area of the low-temperature region on both sides is fully activated, the dust in the flue gas is easy to form "erosion" in the middle pipe bundle when flowing at high speed, and the dust is easy to deposit in the low-speed region on both sides. By forming the flow guide by the middle plate 71 and the side plate 72, the flue gas is divided to the two sides, the flow rate in the middle region is reduced, the erosion of the middle pipe bundle is reduced, the flow rate in the two side regions is increased, the dust deposition is reduced by using the air flow disturbance, the frequency of dust removal is reduced, and the service life of the heat exchange pipe 12 is effectively improved.

[0069] Second embodiment:

[0070] Please refer to Figures 9 to 11 It also includes a flow guide mechanism 8.

[0071] The flow guide mechanism 8 comprises a first flow guide plate 81 and a second flow guide plate 82, both of which are rotatably installed inside the waste heat tank 3 and located on both sides of the heat exchange pipe 12, the side wall of the first flow guide plate 81 is fixedly provided with a first connecting plate 83, the bottom of the first connecting plate 83 and on one side of the first flow guide plate 81 is rotatably connected with a first guide roller 84, the side wall of the second flow guide plate 82 is fixedly provided with a second connecting plate 85, and the bottom of the second connecting plate 85 and on one side of the second flow guide plate 82 is rotatably connected with a second guide roller 86.

[0072] It can be understood that: please refer to Figure 9 , the first flow guide plate 81 and the second flow guide plate 82 are initially in an inclined state, so when the flue gas is concentrated in the middle segment position, the first flow guide plate 81 and the second flow guide plate 82 can also play a role in flow guiding.

[0073] Please refer to 10: when the side plate 72 moves to the right side, the side plate 72 will resist the force of the first guide roller 84 to control the first connecting plate 83 to control the first flow guide plate 81 to form a clockwise overturning to increase the inclined surface, so that the flue gas passing through the right side will be guided by the first flow guide plate 81;

[0074] Please refer to Figure 11 : when the side plate 72 moves to the left side, the side plate 72 will resist the force of the second guide roller 86 to control the second connecting plate 85 to control the second flow guide plate 82 to form a counterclockwise overturning to increase the inclined surface, so that the flue gas passing through the left side will be guided by the second flow guide plate 82;

[0075] Please refer to Figure 10 and Figure 11 : no matter whether the side plate 72 overturns to the left side or the right side, the middle plate 71 will synchronously overturn, when the middle plate 71 overturns to the left side, the back plate 73 will reduce the space on the right side of the air inlet frame 5, ensuring that a large amount of flue gas enters the left side, and when the middle plate 71 overturns to the right side, the back plate 73 will reduce the space on the left side of the air inlet frame 5, ensuring that a large amount of flue gas enters the right side.

[0076] In this embodiment

[0077] In the flow process of flue gas, the boundary layer is formed on the inner wall of the waste heat tank 3 due to the influence of the wall surface viscous force, the thermal resistance of low-speed flue gas in the boundary layer is extremely large, the heat exchange efficiency between the flue gas and the wall surface is extremely low, the first flow guide plate 81 and the second flow guide plate 82 arranged in an inclined manner can directly cut the low-speed boundary layer adhering to the wall, forcing the flue gas to change the flow direction from “parallel flow along the wall” to “oblique impact on the main flow area”, breaking the stable state of the low-speed layer, so that the high-temperature main flow flue gas can more directly contact the heat exchange pipe 12;

[0078] The wall-attached flue gas is stirred into the main high-temperature flue gas by the guide flow, the mixing of the cold and hot flue gas is promoted, the temperature stratification near the wall is eliminated, and the flue gas temperature distribution in the waste heat box 3 is more uniform. In addition, the inclination angle of the first guide plate 81 and the second guide plate 82 is determined according to the overturning angle of the side plate 72, so the greater the guide flue gas amount, the greater the inclination angle. In this way, the degree of flue gas stirring and reversing can be greater.

[0079] Third embodiment:

[0080] Please refer to Figure 3 、 Figures 12 to 13 , also includes an auxiliary mechanism 9;

[0081] The top of the waste heat box 3 is sealingly installed with a mounting cover 11 by bolts, the auxiliary mechanism 9 includes a switching seat 91 and a switching electric cylinder 97, the switching seat 91 is installed on the top of the waste heat box 3 and located inside the mounting cover 11, the switching electric cylinder 97 is installed on one side of the switching seat 91 and located inside the mounting cover 11, the left and right sides of the switching seat 91 are sealingly installed with an air outlet pipe 94, a liquid outlet pipe 95 and an air inlet pipe 92, a liquid inlet pipe 93 respectively, the inside of the switching seat 91 is throughly provided with a first through hole 911 and a second through hole 912 respectively, the output end of the switching electric cylinder 97 and located inside the switching seat 91 is installed with a telescopic rod 98, the outer wall of the telescopic rod 98 is fixedly provided with a first block plug 99 and a second block plug 910 respectively.

[0082] Please refer to Figure 12 and Figure 13 : In the initial state, the second block plug 910 blocks the first through hole 911, cutting off the air inlet pipe 92 and the air outlet pipe 94. At this time, the cleaning liquid entering through the liquid inlet pipe 93 will enter into the liquid outlet pipe 95 through the second through hole 912;

[0083] The user can start the switching electric cylinder 97 to control the telescopic rod 98 to drive the first block plug 99 and the second block plug 910 to move backward, then the first block plug 99 blocks the second through hole 912, cutting off the liquid inlet pipe 93 and the liquid outlet pipe 95. At this time, the gas entering into the switching seat 91 through the air inlet pipe 92 will be discharged through the air outlet pipe 94.

[0084] Please refer to Figure 3 and Figure 12 : Whether it is the air outlet pipe 94 or the liquid outlet pipe 95 will enter into the inside of the waste heat box 3, and be sprayed on the surface of the heat exchange pipe 12 by the fan-shaped spray head 96.

[0085] The gas outlet pipe 94 and the liquid outlet pipe 95 extend into the waste heat box 3 and are located above the heat exchange pipe 12, the lower surfaces of the gas outlet pipe 94 and the liquid outlet pipe 95 are equidistantly provided with spray heads 96, the first through hole 911 forms a communication between the gas outlet pipe 94 and the gas inlet pipe 92, the second through hole 912 forms a communication between the liquid outlet pipe 95 and the liquid inlet pipe 93, and the outer walls of the first and second blocking plugs 99 and 910 are tightly attached to the inner wall of the switching seat 91.

[0086] The present embodiment

[0087] Impurities (such as sodium salt crystals generated by calcination of sodium bicarbonate, unreacted raw material powder, dust, etc.) are usually carried in the waste heat flue gas, which gradually deposits on the surface of the heat exchange pipe 12 to form a dust layer or a scale layer, and in severe cases, the machine needs to be stopped for cleaning, interrupting the waste heat recovery process;

[0088] By providing the liquid outlet pipe 95, online or semi-online cleaning can be achieved (without completely stopping, only reducing the flue gas flow), the fan-shaped water flow can directly flush the dust and scale on the surface of the heat exchange pipe 12, and the cleaning effect of the gap dust of the "S"-shaped heat exchange pipe 12 is remarkable. After cleaning the liquid outlet pipe 95, water will remain on the surface of the heat exchange pipe 12, and the gas outlet pipe 94 can dry the heat exchange element by introducing dry compressed air (or preheated inert gas), which can eliminate "vapor resistance", avoid sudden increase of flow resistance, avoid vaporization vapor resistance, maintain the flow resistance in the normal range, and also avoid corrosion of the heat exchange pipe 12.

[0096] This embodiment: This invention introduces inexpensive and stable Ca(OH)2 and employs a novel two-stage causticization process to achieve efficient ammonia recycling in the alkali production process, successfully producing high-purity ultrafine calcium carbonate, solid sodium sulfate, and calcium-based building material raw materials. In the Ca(OH)2 two-stage causticization process, due to the high ammonia recycling rate of CaCO3 (2.80 × 10⁻⁶), the ammonia is recycled to form CaCO3. −9 ) and CaSO4·2H2O (3.14×10 −5 The solubility product constants of the two differ significantly at standard temperatures, therefore, staged causticization can be achieved by adjusting the amount of Ca(OH)2 added: Casticization stage I mainly involves HCO3- − The reaction yields a causticizing slag with a high CaCO3 content. Subsequent wet sieving yields high-purity ultrafine calcium carbonate and a mixed product of CaSO4·2H2O and CaCO3 (the particle size difference between calcium carbonate and calcium sulfate dihydrate is significant). Causticizing stage II mainly involves SO4... 2− The reaction occurs, but the added Ca(OH)2 cannot react completely. Therefore, the second-stage causticizing slag mainly consists of CaSO4·2H2O, Ca(OH)2, and a small amount of CaCO3, which can be used as a calcium-based raw material for building materials. The causticizing filtrate mainly consists of sodium sulfate and ammonia water, which can be processed by evaporation and crystallization to obtain high-purity sodium sulfate solid. In addition, there are three ammonia production steps in the process, which can remove NH4+ from the solution. + All of it is converted into NH3, achieving efficient recovery and utilization of ammonia at the front end of the ammonia-soda process for producing soda ash.

[0097] Please refer to the reference again. Figures 1 to 1 4. The working principle of the soda ash roasting furnace with waste heat recovery and the soda ash co-production calcium carbonate process provided by the present invention is as follows:

[0098] Step S1, in the fourth embodiment, the obtained bicarbonate is placed in the calcination furnace main body 1 to obtain soda ash, and high-temperature flue gas is discharged from the flue gas pipe 4 during calcination. Users need to match an external bag dust collector to filter and process large particles, only leaving high-temperature flue gas into the air inlet frame 5, and then through the heat exchange pipe 12 in the air inlet frame 5 and the waste heat tank 3 to form waste heat recovery heat exchange. Users pass cold water into the heat exchange pipe 12 through the water inlet pipe 13, and finally the heat heats the cold water in the heat exchange pipe 12, which is discharged through the water outlet pipe 14. The steam formed during the heat exchange process can be used for soda ash drying;

[0099] Step S2, air inlet frame 5 adjustment;

[0100] The user controls the adjusting electric cylinder 74 to control the push rod 75 to drive the sliding frame 77 to move forward. In the process of moving the sliding frame 77, the three limiting grooves 78 are stressed, and the corresponding guide wheels 79 in the limiting grooves 78 are moved, thereby affecting the control of the middle plate 71 and the side plates 72 on both sides to form a turning motion to the right. At this time, the flue gas in the air inlet frame 5 is blocked and will wash the heat exchange of the side of the heat exchange pipe 12.

[0101] The user controls the adjusting electric cylinder 74 to control the push rod 75 to drive the sliding frame 77 to move backward. In the process of moving the sliding frame 77, the three limiting grooves 78 are stressed, and the guide wheels 79 control the middle plate 71 and the side plates 72 on both sides to form a turning motion to the left. At this time, the flue gas in the air inlet frame 5 is blocked and will wash the heat exchange of the other side of the heat exchange pipe 12.

[0102] Step S3, cleaning the heat exchange pipe 12 after heat exchange;

[0103] The cleaning liquid entering through the liquid inlet pipe 93 will enter the liquid outlet pipe 95 through the second through hole 912 and be sprayed on the surface of the heat exchange pipe 12 through the fan-shaped spray head 96;

[0104] After a period of spraying, the switching cylinder 97 is started to control the extension rod 98 to drive the first block plug 99 and the second block plug 910 to move backward, so that the first block plug 99 blocks the second through hole 912, cutting off the liquid inlet pipe 93 and the liquid outlet pipe 95. At this time, the gas entering the switching seat 91 through the air inlet pipe 92 will be discharged through the air outlet pipe 94, and the gas will be sprayed on the surface of the heat exchange pipe 12 through the fan-shaped spray head 96.

[0105] The above only describes the preferred embodiments of the present application, and does not limit the patent scope of the present application. Any equivalent structural transformation made in the concept of the present application, or direct / indirect application in other related technical fields is included in the patent protection scope of the present application.
