Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This invention relates to the field of gas-liquid separation technology, and in particular to a gas-liquid separation device. Background Technology
[0002] As a key industrial piece of equipment, the rotary kiln plays an irreplaceable role in the production of quicklime (calcium oxide, chemical formula CaO). It belongs to the category of rotary kilns and produces high-quality quicklime products through a chemical reaction process of high-temperature calcination of limestone (whose main component is calcium carbonate, chemical formula CaCO3). However, during the operation of the rotary kiln, a certain amount of flue gas is generated. This flue gas contains a variety of components, such as coke oven gas, water vapor, carbon monoxide, sulfur dioxide, and nitrogen oxides. If these components are emitted directly without treatment, they will cause serious environmental pollution.
[0003] If flue gas with high moisture content is directly emitted into the atmosphere, it will not only increase the amount of pollutants carried in the atmosphere, but may also have more complex impacts on the surrounding environment. Therefore, gas-liquid separation must be carried out before flue gas is emitted in order to effectively remove the moisture.
[0004] However, due to the high temperature of the flue gas, the internal temperature of the gas-liquid separator gradually increases after prolonged use, leading to a decrease in cooling efficiency. This decline in cooling efficiency further affects the gas-liquid separation effect, resulting in the separated gas still containing a significant amount of moisture and other impurities, thus impacting the stability and environmental performance of the entire emission system. Furthermore, the water content in the flue gas is uneven, with some areas having high content and others low content, making it difficult for existing gas-liquid separators to efficiently separate such flue gas.
[0005] Chinese Utility Model Patent Publication No. CN209294781U discloses a steam-water separator, including a hollow separator main shell (1), with transversely distributed steam-liquid separation chambers (9) inside the separator main shell (1); a steam condensate inlet (2) is opened at the left end of the separator main shell (1); the steam condensate inlet (2) is connected to the left end of the steam-liquid separation chambers (9); a condensate outlet (5) is located at the bottom of the left end of the steam-liquid separation chambers (9); a drain ball valve (4) is connected to the right end of the steam-liquid separation chambers (9); a steam outlet (6) is located at the top of the separator main shell (1); the steam outlet (6) is connected to the steam-liquid separation chambers (9). This patent separates condensate using the principle of gravity sedimentation, but it still cannot solve the problem of inefficient condensate separation caused by uneven water content in the steam.
[0006] Therefore, it is necessary to provide a new gas-liquid separation device to solve the above-mentioned technical problems. Summary of the Invention

[0020] The present invention will be further described below with reference to the accompanying drawings and embodiments.
[0021] Please refer to the following: Figures 1-10The gas-liquid separation device includes: a cylindrical body 1; two conical cylinders 2 detachably installed at both ends of the cylindrical body 1, with the large ends of the two conical cylinders connected to the cylindrical body; an inlet pipe 3 and an exhaust pipe 4 respectively installed on the small ends of the two conical cylinders 2; two grid plates 5 detachably installed between the large end faces of the two conical cylinders 2 and the end faces of the cylindrical body 1, with stainless steel rectangular saddle ring packing filling between the two grid plates; each grid plate includes an annular cavity and a network of pipes 6 located within the annular cavity and communicating with the top and bottom of the annular cavity; a condensate pipe 28 installed at the bottom of the cylindrical body 1 for outputting condensate; a cooling structure located at the bottom of the cylindrical body 1 for injecting cooling water into the top of the grid plates; and a flow regulating mechanism located on opposite sides of the two grid plates. The flow regulation mechanism includes two flow regulation devices symmetrically distributed about the center of the grid plate. Each flow regulation device includes: a movable plate 30 slidably connected to an annular cavity; a fixed plate 37 fixedly connected to the annular cavity; an arc-shaped spring 38 fixedly connected between the movable plate and the fixed plate, wherein the annular cavity occupied by the arc-shaped spring is not connected to the pipe network under normal conditions; a sliding groove formed on the surface of the annular cavity; a movable block 39 fixedly connected to the movable plate and extending from the sliding groove to the outside of the annular cavity; a fixed block 40 fixedly connected to the fixed plate and extending beyond the annular cavity; and a flexible connector 41, whose two ends are fixedly connected to the movable block and the fixed block respectively, and the flexible connector forms a wavy pleated structure.
[0022] By filling the cylinder 1 with stainless steel rectangular saddle ring packing, the contact area between the flue gas and the packing is increased. This allows the water vapor and other liquid components in the flue gas to come into more thorough contact with and condense on the packing surface as it passes through the packing layer, effectively improving the efficiency of gas-liquid separation. This significantly reduces the moisture content in the separated gas, enhancing the quality of gas-liquid separation. The detachable conical cylinders 2 on both sides of the cylinder 1 facilitate installation, disassembly, and maintenance, making cleaning, repair, or replacement of internal components of the entire gas-liquid separation device more convenient and faster, reducing maintenance and time costs. Simultaneously, the conical cylindrical structure guides the airflow. By installing inlet pipes 3 and exhaust pipes 4 on two conical cylinders 2 respectively, the entry and exit paths of the flue gas are clearly defined, allowing the flue gas to enter the cylinder 1 in an orderly manner for gas-liquid separation and smoothly discharge the separated gas. The grid plate 5 prevents the stainless steel rectangular saddle ring packing from falling off, ensuring the packing remains stably within the cylinder 1 and guaranteeing the normal operation of the gas-liquid separation process. A cooling structure at the bottom of the cylinder 1 assists in heat dissipation of the packing, ensuring a good condensation effect. This maintains a good cooling effect even when the flue gas temperature is high, further ensuring the gas-liquid separation effect and reducing the impurity content in the separated gas. When cooling water is introduced to the top of the grid plate by the cooling structure, the flow adjustment mechanism pushes the movable plate downwards, which in turn moves the movable block downwards, changing the distance between the crests and troughs of the flexible connector. This adjusts the flow direction of the flue gas passing through the flexible connector, ensuring that the flue gas passes evenly through the stainless steel rectangular saddle ring packing located between the two grid plates. As cooling water enters from the top of the annular cavity, some of it pushes the movable plate downwards, while some flows from the pipes to the bottom of the cavity. When the movable plate descends to a point where the force of the arc spring exceeds the pressure from the cooling water, the spring pushes the plate back to its original position. This process repeats, causing the flexible connector to periodically expand or contract, altering the flow path of the passing flue gas and inducing localized small-scale secondary flows or vortices. The superposition effect of these vortices subtly adjusts or disturbs the direction of the main airflow. The periodic cross-sectional changes of the flexible connector structure cause these separation vortices to periodically generate and detach, significantly affecting the flow field structure and enhancing radial mixing of the flue gas. This improves the utilization rate of the stainless steel rectangular saddle ring packing, ensuring that all stainless steel rectangular saddle ring packings with the same longitudinal section can fully contact the moisture and impurities in the passing flue gas. Simultaneously, the driving force of the flow regulating mechanism is provided by the cooling water input from the cooling mechanism, eliminating the need for an additional power source and reducing energy consumption. The length of the chute is limited to allow the movable plate to move a certain distance before stopping. A movable sealing fit is preferred between the movable block and the sliding groove. The top central area of the annular cavity is connected to the pipeline, and the bottom central area of the annular cavity is also connected to the pipeline, so that cooling water can flow into the bottom of the annular cavity through the pipeline.The two flow control mechanisms are symmetrically distributed on the left and right sides of the annular cavity.
[0023] The condensate pipe 28 is equipped with an isolation net 29, and a regulating valve for adjusting the opening and closing of the pipe is provided on the condensate pipe 28. By installing the condensate pipe 28 at the bottom of the cylinder 1, the purpose of timely output of condensate is achieved. During the gas-liquid separation process, the water vapor in the flue gas condenses into liquid water and can be smoothly discharged from the cylinder 1 through the condensate pipe 28, avoiding the accumulation of condensate in the cylinder 1, thereby ensuring the stability of the gas-liquid separation environment in the cylinder 1. By setting the isolation net 29 in the condensate pipe 28, the leakage of stainless steel rectangular saddle ring packing is prevented. By setting the regulating valve on the condensate pipe 28, the opening and closing of the pipe can be flexibly adjusted. According to the actual operating conditions, the discharge speed and flow rate of condensate can be controlled by the regulating valve to meet the needs under different working conditions.
[0024] Support rings 10 are fixed to the inner circumferential surfaces of the two conical cylinders 2. A sealing gasket 11 for preventing air leakage is provided between the mating surfaces of the two support rings 10 and the cylinder body 1. The pipe network 6 is made of stainless steel. Firstly, stainless steel pipe network 6 has good corrosion resistance and is not easily corroded or damaged in long-term contact with flue gas containing acidic or alkaline components, ensuring the structural integrity and operational stability of pipe network 6, extending its service life, and reducing equipment failures and maintenance costs caused by damage to pipe network 6. Secondly, the installation of pipe network 6 can assist in heat exchange during the gas-liquid separation process. For example, when cooling is required, cooling water can be introduced through pipe network 6 to enhance the cooling effect on the flue gas inside the cylinder body 1, further improving the gas-liquid separation efficiency and resulting in higher quality separated gas. Support rings 10 are fixed inside both conical cylinders 2, which plays a role in stabilizing the structure. The support rings 10 can provide reliable support for components such as the grid plate 5, ensuring that they will not be displaced or deformed due to vibration or airflow impact during the operation of the device, thus ensuring the structural stability of the entire device. By setting a sealing gasket 11 on the side of the two support rings 10 that is close to each other and in contact with the outer wall of the cylinder 1, a good anti-leakage effect is achieved. The sealing gasket 11 can effectively fill the gap between the support ring 10 and the outer wall of the cylinder 1, preventing flue gas from leaking out from these gaps. This avoids the pollution caused by flue gas leakage to the environment and ensures the stability of the internal pressure of the device, so that the gas-liquid separation process can be carried out under normal pressure conditions.
[0025] The cooling structure includes a water tank 27 located below the cylinder 1 and connected to the condensate pipe 28. A turbine pump 13 is installed on the top of the water tank 27, with its inlet extending into the water tank 27. The outlet of the turbine pump 13 is connected to an upwardly extending drain pipe 14, the end of which is threaded to the top of the grid plate 5 via a threaded block 15. The drain pipe 14 and the threaded block 15 are connected to the pipe network 6. A connecting pipe 16 extending into the water tank 27 is connected to the bottom of the grid plate. By setting up the water tank 27, which is fixed to the bottom of the cylinder 1 and connected to the condensate pipe 28, the purpose of collecting and storing the cooling medium is achieved. The water tank 27 can collect some of the condensate or other cooling liquid that may be discharged from the condensate pipe 28, providing a sufficient source of cooling liquid for the entire cooling structure, ensuring a continuous and stable liquid supply during the cooling process, and thus maintaining the cooling effect. By installing a turbo pump 13 with its inlet extending into the water tank 27, the coolant in the water tank 27 is drawn and transported. The turbo pump 13 provides stable power, ensuring that the coolant circulates according to the set flow rate and pressure, thus guaranteeing subsequent cooling operations. This allows the coolant to quickly and effectively reach the parts that need cooling. By setting a drain pipe 14 and a threaded block 15 to introduce the coolant into the pipe network 6, an auxiliary cooling effect is achieved. After entering the pipe network 6 through the drain pipe 14 and the threaded block 15, the coolant can directly cool the cylinder 1 in the area near the grid plate 5, specifically reducing the temperature in this area and preventing the gas-liquid separation effect from being affected by excessive temperature. This improves the efficiency and quality of gas-liquid separation. Through the connecting pipe 16, the coolant can smoothly flow back to the water tank 27 after completing the cooling task, forming a complete coolant circulation system, improving the utilization rate of coolant and reducing resource consumption.
[0026] The water tank 27 is provided with a storage port 21 for accommodating dry ice packs. A baffle 22 for stabilizing the dry ice packs is fixed inside the storage port 21. A drain pipe 23 for discharging condensate from the air is provided on the baffle 22, and a plug is provided on the drain pipe 23. A protective plate 26 for sealing the storage port 21 is hinged to the water tank 27. A locking plate 12 for locking the protective plate 26 is rotatably installed on the side of the cylinder 1. By providing a storage port 21 for accommodating dry ice packs on the water tank 27, the cooling effect is enhanced. When it is necessary to quickly reduce the temperature of the coolant in the water tank 27 or to cope with high-temperature conditions, dry ice packs can be placed in the storage port 21. The sublimation of dry ice absorbs heat and rapidly reduces the temperature of the coolant, thereby enhancing the cooling capacity of the cylinder 1. This allows the gas-liquid separation process to take place at a more suitable temperature, improving separation efficiency and quality. The baffle 22 for stabilizing the dry ice packs, fixed inside the storage port 21, effectively secures the storage port. The baffle 22 serves to prevent the dry ice pack from shifting due to shaking in the water tank 27 or the impact of dry ice sublimation gas, ensuring that the dry ice can stably exert its cooling effect and avoiding the impact of dry ice pack position changes on the cooling effect. By setting a drain pipe 23 and a plug on the baffle 22 for discharging air condensate, the condensate can be discharged in a timely manner. Dry ice sublimation causes water vapor in the surrounding air to condense, and the condensate can be discharged through the drain pipe 23 to prevent water accumulation from affecting the dry ice sublimation and cooling effect. The plug can be set to close the pipe when drainage is not needed. The protective plate 26 hinged to the water tank 27 to close the storage port 21, and the locking plate 12 rotatably installed on the cylinder 1 to lock the protective plate 26, serve to protect the dry ice pack and facilitate operation. The protective plate 26 can prevent external debris from entering the storage port 21, and the locking plate 12 can lock the protective plate 26, making it easy to open and close the storage port 21 for placing and replacing the dry ice pack.
[0027] A connecting plate 7 is fixed to the conical cylinder 2, and a fixing plate 8 is installed on the outer wall of the cylinder 1, which contacts the connecting plate 7. A fixing bolt 9, which is threaded onto the connecting plate 7 and threadedly connected to the fixing plate 8, is installed on the connecting plate 7. By fixing the connecting plate 7 to the conical cylinder 2 and installing the fixing plate 8 on the outer wall of the cylinder 1, positioning and initial connection are achieved. The contact between the connecting plate 7 and the fixing plate 8 provides a clear mating position for the assembly of the conical cylinder 2 and the cylinder 1, enabling quick positioning during installation and avoiding installation difficulties caused by positional deviations. To address issues such as difficulty in sealing, a fixing bolt 9, which is threaded onto the connecting plate 7 and connected to the fixing plate 8, is installed. This achieves a stable connection between the conical cylinder 2 and the cylinder body 1. The fixing bolt 9 secures the connecting plate 7 and the fixing plate 8 together through a threaded connection, thus making the conical cylinder 2 and the cylinder body 1 a whole. This enhances the overall structural stability of the device and enables it to withstand various stresses caused by airflow impact, vibration, and other factors during operation. It also prevents loosening or separation between the conical cylinder 2 and the cylinder body 1, ensuring the normal operation of the device.
[0028] A turbine is rotatably installed inside the turbine pump 13, and a motor 20 for driving the turbine is installed on the turbine pump 13. An agitator 17 is rotatably installed inside the water tank 27. Two sprockets 18 located outside the water tank are installed on the agitator 17 and the turbine. The two sprockets 18 are fitted with chains 19 for transmission. By rotatably installing a turbine inside the turbine pump 13 and equipping it with a motor 20 for driving the turbine, a strong power is provided for the circulation of coolant. The motor 20, as a power source, can stably and continuously output power to drive the turbine to rotate at high speed. The rotation of the turbine generates strong suction and pressure in the coolant within the water tank 27, ensuring that the coolant is delivered to the cooling-requiring parts, such as the pipe network 6, according to the set flow rate and velocity through components like the drain pipe 14. A rotating stirring rod 17 is installed inside the water tank 27, with sprockets 18 mounted on both the stirring rod 17 and the turbine, and a chain 19 for transmission. This ensures uniform temperature and composition of the coolant. When the turbine rotates under the drive of the motor 20, the stirring rod 17 rotates synchronously through the sprockets 18 and chain 19. The rotation of the stirring rod 17 agitates the coolant within the water tank 27, ensuring thorough mixing and preventing cooling effects caused by localized temperature differences or uneven composition. Furthermore, no additional power source is needed to drive the stirring rod 17, reducing energy consumption and cost. There can be one or two turbine pumps; when there are two, they are symmetrically distributed about the center of the water tank, and there are also one or two corresponding stirring rods, also symmetrically distributed about the center of the water tank.
[0029] The conical cylinder 2 is fixed with a handle 25 for providing an operating grip point. The top of the cylinder 1 has an inspection port 24 for personnel maintenance of the stainless steel rectangular saddle ring packing. A protective cover for closing the inspection port 24 is threaded onto the inspection port 24. The protective cover has an observation window, and the observation window has a cleaning element 31 for assisting in cleaning condensate droplets. By fixing the handle 25 to the conical cylinder 2 to provide an operating grip point, the operation of the conical cylinder 2 is facilitated. During the installation, disassembly, or movement of the equipment, the operator can directly grasp the handle 25 and apply appropriate force to move the conical cylinder 2, avoiding the risk of slippage that may occur due to direct contact with the surface of the conical cylinder 2. This also reduces damage to the equipment caused by improper force. The inspection port 24 at the top of the cylinder 1 facilitates equipment maintenance. The stainless steel rectangular saddle ring packing serves a maintenance and repair function. When the packing becomes clogged, damaged, or needs replacement, operators can directly enter the cylinder 1 through the inspection port 24 to inspect, clean, or replace it without requiring large-scale disassembly of the entire equipment. This significantly shortens maintenance time and reduces maintenance costs. A protective cover threaded onto the inspection port 24 protects the internal structure and prevents foreign objects from entering. During normal operation, the cover tightly seals the inspection port 24, preventing external dust and debris from entering the cylinder 1 and affecting gas-liquid separation and normal equipment operation. Furthermore, an observation window on the cover allows operators to observe the internal condition without opening the cover, further facilitating equipment monitoring and maintenance. A cleaning component 31 promptly removes condensation droplets from the observation window, ensuring clear visibility.
[0030] The cleaning component 31 includes a support plate 32 fixed to the center of the outer side of the observation window. A rotating shaft 33 is rotatably mounted at the center of the support plate 32. An outwardly extending support rod 35 is fixed to the rotating shaft 33. A silicone scraper 36 in contact with the observation window is fixed to the support rod 35. An adjusting block 34 is sleeved on the rotating shaft 33. By setting the support plate 32 fixed on the observation window, a stable installation base is provided for the cleaning component 31. The rotating shaft 33, rotatably mounted on the support plate 32, serves to flexibly rotate and transmit power. The support rod 35 installed at the bottom of the rotating shaft 33 serves to connect and support the silicone scraper 36. The rotation of the rotating shaft 33 is converted into the movement of the silicone scraper 36, and a suitable installation position and angle are provided for the silicone scraper 36, so that the silicone scraper 36 can closely adhere to the surface of the observation window. By contacting the observation window with the silicone scraper 36, it effectively removes condensation droplets. The silicone material is soft and has a certain degree of elasticity, so it will not scratch the observation window when scraping water droplets. At the same time, it can closely adhere to the surface of the observation window to thoroughly remove condensation droplets and ensure the clarity of the observation window. The adjustment block 34 provides an operating grip point, allowing the operator to easily rotate the rotating shaft 33, thereby driving the silicone scraper 36 to clean the observation window, improving cleaning efficiency.
[0031] The motor 20 is encased in a protective shell for waterproofing and dustproofing. This protective shell is made of aluminum, and its inner wall contacts the outer wall of the motor 20 to aid in heat dissipation. A silicone pad, which contacts the outer wall of the water tank 27, is installed on the protective plate 26 for shock absorption and noise reduction. By encasing the motor 20 in this waterproof and dustproof protective shell, the motor 20 is protected from external environmental damage. The aluminum material of the protective shell, with its inner wall in contact with the outer wall of the motor 20, provides excellent heat dissipation. Aluminum has good thermal conductivity, allowing it to quickly conduct the heat generated by the motor 20 during operation, preventing heat loss and ensuring proper heat dissipation. The performance of motor 20 may degrade or be damaged due to overheating. At the same time, the inner wall of motor 20 is in direct contact with the outer wall of motor 20, which increases the heat conduction area and further improves the heat dissipation efficiency, allowing motor 20 to operate at a suitable temperature and extending its service life. By installing silicone pads on the protective plate 26 that can contact the outer wall of water tank 27 for shock absorption and noise reduction, the shock absorption and noise reduction functions are achieved. During equipment operation, vibration and noise may be generated. The silicone pads can absorb and buffer some of the vibration energy, reduce the impact of vibration on water tank 27 and the entire equipment, and reduce the risk of equipment failure caused by vibration. The silicone pads can also effectively block the transmission of noise.
[0032] The working principle of the gas-liquid separation device provided by this invention is as follows: This solution also includes an electrical control cabinet, which is installed on the equipment. During use, each piece of electrical equipment can be started and operated separately through the electrical control cabinet. The power connection method of each piece of electrical equipment is an existing mature technology and is well known to those in the field, so it will not be described in detail here. In use, the operator holds the handle 25 on the conical cylinder 2 and moves the device to a suitable position. The connecting plate 7 is connected to the fixing plate 8, and the conical cylinder 2 is securely installed on both sides of the cylinder body 1 using the fixing bolts 9. Ensure that the sealing gasket 11 on the support ring 10 is tightly fitted to the outer wall of the cylinder body 1. Install the air inlet pipe 3 and exhaust pipe 4 onto the two conical cylinders 2 respectively. Open the protective cover of the inspection port 24, fill the cylinder body 1 with stainless steel rectangular saddle ring packing, and then reseal the protective cover. Start the motor 20 of the turbine pump 13 (using a Siemens 1FT7 servo motor as an example) through the electrical control cabinet. The motor 20 drives the turbine to rotate, and the turbine drives the stirring rod 17 in the water tank 27 to rotate synchronously through the sprocket 18 and chain 19. The turbine pump 13 pumps the coolant in the water tank 27 through the drain pipe 14 and threaded block 1. The coolant is delivered to the grid plate 5 via the pipe network 6. After the coolant has cooled down, it flows back to the water tank 27 through the connecting pipe 16. When it is necessary to enhance the cooling effect, the protective plate 26 is opened and the dry ice bag is placed on the baffle 22 of the storage port 21. The condensate is discharged through the drain pipe 23 and then sealed with a plug. The flue gas enters the cylinder 1 from the inlet pipe 3 and comes into contact with the stainless steel rectangular saddle ring packing under the guidance of the guide plate 30. The flue gas condenses into liquid water and is discharged through the condensate pipe 28. The separated gas is output through the exhaust pipe 4. The operator can check the internal situation through the observation window. When condensate droplets appear in the observation window, the adjusting block 34 is rotated to drive the rotating shaft 33 to rotate. The rotating shaft 33 drives the silicone scraper 36 to scrape off the water droplets through the support rod 35. The stainless steel rectangular saddle ring packing is regularly maintained and repaired through the inspection port 24.
