Description
Technical Field
[0001] This invention relates to the field of formaldehyde waste gas treatment technology, specifically to a tail gas absorption tower for formaldehyde waste gas treatment. Background Technology
[0002] In the patent application with publication number CN217163802U, there is an absorption tower body. A water tank is installed on one side of the absorption tower body. A conveying pipe is installed between the water tank and the absorption tower body. A sprayer with an atomizing nozzle is installed on the lower surface of one end of the conveying pipe. An exhaust pipe is installed at the top of the absorption tower body. An air inlet pipe is installed on one side of the absorption tower body. A drain outlet is opened on the lower side of the absorption tower body. When the device is in use, the droplets flow from top to bottom along the surface of multiple sets of fan-shaped plates, so that a water curtain is formed in the gap between two adjacent sets of fan-shaped plates. This allows the exhaust gas to pass through the water curtain before it can continue to rise, thereby slowing down the rising speed of the exhaust gas and purifying the gas again.
[0003] In the aforementioned patent, some of the waste gas treatment equipment has insufficient gas-liquid contact and low absorption efficiency, resulting in incomplete purification of formaldehyde waste gas, causing secondary pollution and failing to meet environmental emission requirements.

Multiple exhaust holes are provided below the multiple long rods.
[0009] Preferably, the mounting tube has through holes on its lower outer side corresponding to the long rod and the short rod. The long rod and the short rod are fixedly connected to the mounting tube through the through holes on its lower outer side. The long rod and the short rod inside the mounting tube have annular grooves corresponding to the inside of the mounting tube. The mounting tube is connected to the ventilation groove through the annular grooves.
[0010] Preferably, the mounting assembly includes a fixing ring fixedly connected to the lower end of the long rod, the fixing ring having an annular groove on its outer side, and the position of the fixing ring corresponding to the position of the vent hole.
[0011] Preferably, the rotating assembly includes a rotating ring rotatably connected to the outside of the fixed ring, a connecting ring fixedly connected inside the rotating ring, the connecting ring corresponding to the annular groove, the connecting ring being rotatably disposed in the annular groove, a mounting ring fixedly connected to the lower end of the rotating ring, and a plurality of oblique grooves provided on the mounting ring, each of the plurality of oblique grooves being fixedly connected to an exhaust pipe.

[0013] Preferably, two spraying assemblies are provided on one side of the inlet pipe, and the spraying assemblies are located inside the tower body, respectively above the two packing materials above.
[0014] Compared with the prior art, the technical solution of the present invention has the following advantages:
[0015] (1) The tower is equipped with connecting components, fixing components, mounting components and rotating components. Under the power of the conveying equipment, the waste gas is accelerated through the conical tube and then forced into the absorbent liquid at the bottom of the U-shaped tube through the connecting bend, forming large bubbles. Subsequently, these large bubbles are cut by the connecting disc with screen holes above as they rise due to buoyancy. This design breaks the single large bubble into countless small bubbles, which increases the total surface area of the gas. According to the mass transfer theory, the contact surface area between the gas and liquid phases directly determines the mass transfer rate. The smaller the bubble, the larger the surface area, and the more formaldehyde molecules can contact and react with the absorbent liquid in a short time. Thus, efficient and rapid primary absorption and dust washing are completed in the U-shaped tube stage. The design of the rotating components further enhances the mass transfer process and solves the absorption problem. The issue of uniform liquid collection arises because the gas discharged from the fixed components enters the rotating device consisting of the exhaust pipe. When the gas is ejected from the obliquely set exhaust pipe, the resulting reaction force drives the entire mounting ring to rotate continuously. This makes the exhaust pipe act like a high-speed rotating agitator, creating strong turbulence and mixing in the liquid layer at the bottom of the tower. Compared with static rising bubble groups, the dynamic, rotating small bubble groups can more effectively tear and renew the stagnant liquid film at the gas-liquid interface, reducing mass transfer resistance and allowing formaldehyde molecules to diffuse more quickly into the liquid phase. The stirring effect prevents the absorption liquid from forming concentration stratification or local saturation at the bottom of the tower, ensuring that the concentration of the absorption liquid at the bottom of the entire tower tends to be uniform, thereby maintaining the high efficiency of the bottom area for the absorption of waste gas and preventing the overall efficiency decline due to local failure.
[0016] (2) The U-shaped tube, as a liquid seal and primary purification component, has trapped most of the dust in the exhaust gas in the absorbent liquid at its bottom, preventing the dust from directly entering the main body of the tower and the packing layer. This is the first purification process. A cleaning pipe and a switch valve are installed on one side of the U-shaped tube. As the operating time accumulates, dust and impurities will accumulate at the bottom of the bend of the U-shaped tube, and some may even block the screen holes on the connecting plate. When traditional equipment encounters such problems, it often needs to stop the machine and disassemble some pipelines or components for cleaning, which is time-consuming and labor-intensive. However, this device only needs to shut down the system. By opening the valve on the cleaning pipe, the waste liquid containing deposited dirt can be discharged first. Then, the operator can easily connect the high-pressure water gun or cleaning fluid pipeline to the cleaning pipe and inject high-pressure fluid into the U-shaped pipe in the reverse direction. The powerful flushing of the high-pressure water flow can effectively clean the inner wall of the U-shaped pipe, the bends, and every sieve hole on the connecting plate, loosening and suspending stubborn deposits and carrying them out with the subsequent drainage. Through several cycles of "flushing-draining", the U-shaped pipe can be completely restored to unobstructed flow. The whole process is quick, safe, and simplifies the maintenance process.

[0038] Two spraying components 31 are provided on one side of the inlet pipe 3. The spraying components 31 are located inside the tower body 1 and are respectively located above the two packings 111. The inlet pipe 3 is connected to the liquid supply pump.
[0039] The working principle of this invention: Formaldehyde waste gas, transported by an external gas conveying device, first enters the connecting pipe 511 located below the tower body 1. When the waste gas flows through the conical pipe 516 inside the connecting pipe 511, it is accelerated due to the change in pipe diameter. The accelerated waste gas enters the bent section of the U-shaped pipe 512 through the connecting bend pipe 517. The U-shaped pipe cavity is filled with absorbent liquid, and the liquid level submerges the outlet of the connecting bend pipe 517 and the connecting plate 518 above it. The waste gas is forced to enter the liquid from the outlet of the connecting bend pipe 517, forming large bubbles. Under the action of buoyancy, the large bubbles move upward and collide with the connecting plate 518 which is covered with sieve holes 519. The connecting plate 518 acts as a sieve plate, cutting and breaking the rising large bubbles into countless small bubbles. This process increases the gas-liquid contact surface area, allowing the formaldehyde waste gas to fully contact the absorbent liquid. During this process, the dust in the waste gas settles into the absorbent liquid, and the dust in the formaldehyde waste gas is treated. The structure of the U-shaped pipe 512 forms a reliable liquid seal to prevent gas backflow.
[0040] After the first absorption and crushing, the gas passes through the sieve holes of the connecting plate 518 in the form of small bubbles. After collection, it passes through the inverted J-shaped bend 513 and enters the installation pipe 514 with the help of the exhaust fan 53. The gas then enters the fixed assembly 52, which is composed of a long rod 521 and a short rod 522, through the installation pipe 514. The fixed assembly 52 is submerged below the bottom liquid level of the tower. The purified gas in the U-shaped tube 512 is discharged through the exhaust hole 524 below the long rod 521 and enters the fixed ring 541. From the fixed ring 541, it enters the installation ring 553 and then is discharged from the exhaust pipe 555. Because the exhaust pipe 555 and the inclined groove 554 are both inclined, the reaction force of the discharged gas will push the installation ring 553 to rotate continuously. The rotating exhaust pipe 555 agitates the liquid layer at the bottom of the tower, making the concentration of the absorbent liquid at the bottom of the tower uniform and avoiding local saturation. The agitation breaks the stagnant liquid film at the gas-liquid interface, allowing fresh absorbent liquid to be continuously exposed to the incoming waste gas, so that the waste gas and absorbent liquid can have better contact.
[0041] The ventilation slots 523 inside the fixed component 52 are interconnected to form a gas distribution plate, which evenly distributes the gas to the bottom cross section of the tower. The evenly distributed gas flows upward and passes through the multiple layers of packing 111 in the tower. At the same time, fresh absorbent liquid is pumped to the top of the tower through the inlet pipe 3 and the spraying component 31 and sprayed downward to contact the rising gas in the countercurrent. On the surface of the packing, the liquid film is constantly formed and renewed, and a second deep mass transfer and absorption with the formaldehyde in the gas is carried out, which improves the purification efficiency. The gas purified by the packing layer continues to rise and is discharged from the gas outlet pipe 2.
[0042] After long-term operation, dust and other solids may accumulate at the bottom of the U-tube 512. In this case, the system can be shut down, the switch valve on the cleaning pipe 515 at the bottom of the U-tube can be opened, the sewage containing the sediment can be discharged first, and high-pressure water or cleaning fluid can be injected into the U-tube 512 from the cleaning pipe 515 in reverse to forcefully flush the inside of the U-tube 512 and the sieve holes 519 on the connecting plate 518 to suspend the sediment. Then the turbid water can be discharged. Repeating this process several times can effectively clean the blockage without disassembling the equipment.

The scope of protection of the present invention is defined by the claims. Those skilled in the art can make various modifications or equivalent substitutions to the present invention within its spirit and scope of protection, and such modifications or equivalent substitutions should also be considered to fall within the scope of protection of the present invention.
