Description

TECHNICAL FIELD

[0001] The application belongs to the technical field of titanium concentrate drying, and particularly relates to a drying and dust collecting system suitable for superfine particle grade titanium concentrate. BACKGROUND

[0002] At present, in order to increase the yield of titanium concentrate in the beneficiation process, a large amount of fine particle grade and superfine particle grade titanium concentrate powder exists in the titanium concentrate product. The titanium concentrate powder after the beneficiation process does not have the condition of being directly sold as a product, and needs to be reduced to below 0.5% in water content to be used as a finished product.

[0003] The current forms of drying titanium concentrate powder mainly include indirect drying and direct drying. The indirect drying process has low heat exchange efficiency, which greatly increases the energy consumption of the drying system. Generally, the direct drying process is adopted to dry the titanium concentrate powder, but the fine particle grade and superfine particle grade titanium concentrate powder in the titanium concentrate powder will enter the dust collecting system with the drying waste gas. The titanium concentrate powder has high hardness and causes great wear of the bag dust collector. Generally, the titanium concentrate powder dust is recovered through a multi-stage cyclone dust collecting process combined with a wet dust collecting method. The cyclone dust collecting process has weak capturing ability for fine particle grade and superfine particle grade dust, and is mainly responsible for removing large particle dust in the waste gas. The fine particle grade and superfine particle grade titanium concentrate is captured in large amounts in the wet dust collecting stage, enters the dust collecting waste water and sludge, and cannot be directly formed into a product, and needs to be returned to the drying system again for drying. The fine particle grade and superfine particle grade titanium concentrate is easy to form enrichment in the system, and has a negative effect on the efficiency of the titanium concentrate drying system.

[0004] A typical existing drying and dust collecting process flow is as follows: 1. The fuel enters the fluidized bed furnace, and starts to burn under the condition of combustion air provided by the combustion air fan to provide heat; 2. The wet titanium concentrate enters the single-cylinder dryer through the titanium concentrate feeding equipment, is heated by the hot air provided by the fluidized bed furnace, and the moisture is dried; 3. After the drying process is completed, the dry titanium concentrate is discharged from the outlet of the dryer, and the waste gas containing titanium concentrate powder enters the dust collecting system; 4. After being powered by the dust collecting fan, the titanium concentrate powder collected by the cyclone dust collector is directly recycled as a product after being passed through the multi-stage cyclone dust collecting process, entering the spray tower and wet electrostatic precipitator; 5. The fine particle grade titanium concentrate dust is captured in the spray tower and wet electrostatic precipitator, and the spray tower also removes harmful substances such as S in the flotation reagent. The fine particle grade titanium concentrate and the desulfurization waste water are returned to the drying system together, and the flue gas is discharged.

[0005] Although this process can realize the drying and pollution control of the titanium concentrate, it still has obvious deficiencies in the aspects of fine particle material recovery, system anti-enrichment, equipment anti-wear and operation energy consumption, and urgently needs a more efficient, stable and economical drying and dust collecting system.
