Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This invention belongs to the field of nitrogen recovery technology, specifically a pressure-controlled nitrogen recovery and circulation device and its process. Background Technology
[0002] In the production processes of industries such as petrochemicals and fine chemicals, product storage tanks serve as core storage equipment for raw materials, intermediates, and finished products. The stability of their internal pressure directly impacts storage safety and product quality. During the material receiving process, the increased volume of materials compresses the gas inside the tank, and fluctuations in ambient temperature cause the gas to expand due to heat, both of which lead to a gradual increase in internal pressure. To balance the internal pressure and avoid the risk of overpressure, traditional product storage tanks are typically equipped with breather valves. When the internal pressure reaches the valve's release pressure, excess gas is either directly released into the atmosphere through the valve or released after only simple treatment.
[0003] Currently, the industry mainly uses two methods to handle exhaust gas from storage tanks: one is direct discharge without recovery treatment. This method not only wastes inert gas resources such as nitrogen, but also releases volatile organic gases from the tank into the atmosphere, causing air pollution and failing to meet the strict requirements of environmental regulations for exhaust gas emissions. At the same time, the loss of organic gases also causes certain economic losses. The other method is to treat the exhaust gas with simple oil and gas recovery equipment before discharge. Although this can reduce some pollutant emissions, the treated gas is often directly discharged, which cannot realize the recycling of gas resources. Moreover, some treatment equipment has low purification efficiency for organic gases, making it difficult to meet the stringent emission concentration standards, and still poses environmental risks. Furthermore, when treating the exhaust gas before discharge, sudden situations such as overpressure of the gas storage equipment are prone to occur, making it impossible to quickly treat the gas in compliance with regulations and achieve emission standards. This can easily lead to safety hazards, reduce the stability and reliability of the oil and gas recovery equipment, and fail to meet people's needs. Summary of the Invention
[0004] The present invention aims to solve the technical problems existing in the prior art; to this end, the present invention proposes a pressure-controlled nitrogen recovery and circulation device and its process.
[0005] A pressure-controlled nitrogen recovery and circulation device includes a nitrogen storage tank and a product storage tank connected to the nitrogen storage tank. A purification mechanism for purifying the gas in the product storage tank is located on the other side of the product storage tank. Pipe assemblies connect the nitrogen storage tank, the product storage tank, and the purification mechanism. The purification mechanism includes a purification chamber, a vertically positioned partition plate in the middle of the purification chamber, and a horizontally positioned air inlet plate on the lower inner side of the purification chamber. The bottom end of the partition plate is aligned with the middle of the upper surface of the air inlet plate. The air inlet plate divides the internal space of the purification chamber into an upper purification chamber and a lower filtration chamber. The partition plate evenly divides the upper purification chamber. The purification mechanism also includes components arranged from bottom to top... The upper purification chamber contains a fine filter element and an adsorption element that works in conjunction with the fine filter element. The lower filtration chamber contains a filter assembly for preliminary filtration of the gas. The filter assembly includes a support base vertically arranged in the lower filtration chamber and filter seats symmetrically and inclinedly arranged in the lower filtration chamber. One end of the filter seat is connected to the support base, and the upper end of the support base is vertically connected to the middle of the lower end face of the air inlet plate. A filter mesh belt for preliminary filtration of the gas is movably arranged in the filter seat. The bottom of the purification chamber has a drain port communicating with the lower filtration chamber. The filter seats are inclined downwards towards the side closer to the support base, and the support base has a connecting groove that matches the filter seat.
[0006] As a further aspect of the present invention: the nitrogen storage tank is provided with a first adapter, and the product storage tank is provided with a second adapter. Both the first and second adapters are provided with gas valves. The gas valves on the nitrogen storage tank are capable of pressure regulation. The pipeline assembly includes a first air inlet pipe connected to the first and second adapters and a second air inlet pipe disposed on the second adapter and connected to the purification box. The purification box is symmetrically provided with a first exhaust hood and a second exhaust hood. The first exhaust hood is provided with a return air pipe communicating with the first adapter. The upper end of the second exhaust hood is provided with an exhaust pipe. The second adapter is provided with a third air inlet pipe connected to the purification box. The third air inlet pipe is connected to the purification box and the exhaust pipe. The third air inlet pipe is provided with an emergency discharge pipeline valve. One-way valves are provided on the first air inlet pipe, the second air inlet pipe, the return air pipe, the exhaust pipe, and the third air inlet pipe. Pressure gauges are provided on both the first and second adapters. The pressure gauges are provided with pressure sensors and controllers used in conjunction with the pressure sensors. Recovery start thresholds and replenishment start thresholds are set on the pressure gauges.
[0007] As a further aspect of the present invention: due to the entry of receiving materials and the increase in ambient temperature, the gas in the gas phase space inside the product storage tank expands and the pressure gradually rises. When the pressure reaches the recovery start threshold, the pressure sensor sends a signal to the controller, causing the mixed gas in the product storage tank to enter the purification box through the second air inlet pipe. After being purified by the purification mechanism, the purified gas must meet the following indicators: organic gas concentration <0.05%, N2 purity >99.5%. At this time, because the system operating pressure is stable at 0.8-1.5MPa, the purified high-pressure nitrogen does not need to be pressurized by a compressor. After being adjusted to the appropriate pressure for the nitrogen storage tank by the pressure regulating valve, it is directly sent into the tank for storage. When the pressure of the product storage tank drops to the recovery stop threshold, the controller closes the pipeline assembly, and the recovery process ends. As the output of feed materials and the decrease in ambient temperature cause the gas phase space inside the product storage tank to shrink, the pressure gradually decreases. When the pressure reaches the replenishment start threshold, the pressure sensor sends a signal to the controller, causing the nitrogen storage tank to adjust the high-purity nitrogen to a pressure that matches the product storage tank through the gas valve and the first inlet pipe, and deliver it to the product storage tank. When the pressure in the product storage tank rises to the replenishment stop threshold, the controller closes the pipeline assembly, and the replenishment process ends. When the pressure in the nitrogen storage tank exceeds the safety threshold, or when other malfunctions occur in the product storage tank and pipeline components that prevent the normal recovery / replenishment process from running, the controller will introduce the excess gas into the purification chamber through the third air inlet pipe for purification treatment, and then discharge the purified gas directly to the outside. After the system pressure returns to the safe range, the third air inlet pipe and the air outlet pipe will be closed.

[0020] Compared with the prior art, the beneficial effects of the present invention are: (1) The pressure-controlled nitrogen recovery and circulation process adopted in this invention uses nitrogen storage tank, product storage tank, purification box, fine filter element, adsorption component, support base, filter base, filter mesh belt and pipeline assembly in combination. When the product storage tank receives material and the temperature rises, causing the pressure to rise, the gas in the tank is actively drawn out. There is no need to rely on the breather valve to passively release pressure, which avoids the impact of drastic pressure fluctuations in the tank on the storage tank and related equipment. It ensures that the pressure in the storage tank is always within the safe threshold range. When the storage tank is discharged or the temperature drops and nitrogen needs to be replenished, it is replenished as needed. When an emergency such as overpressure of the nitrogen storage tank occurs, the gas can directly enter the adsorption unit for efficient adsorption treatment, ensuring that the tail gas quickly meets the emission standards. It avoids the safety hazards of equipment damage and gas leakage caused by overpressure, improves the adaptability and operational reliability of the device under complex working conditions, reduces operation and maintenance costs and human risks, and improves the use effect of nitrogen recovery and circulation process.
[0021] (2) The present invention, through the setting of cleaning components and collection components, and the cooperation of support base, filter base, filter screen belt, first synchronous belt structure and connecting belt, can filter particulate impurities in mixed gas, extend the service life of fine filter element and adsorption element, and clean impurities adhering to the outer surface of filter screen belt through the cooperation of first scraper, knocking roller, knocking strip and second synchronous belt structure, and clean impurities adhering to the inner surface of filter screen belt through the cooperation of cleaning roller, cleaning brush sleeve, drive motor and first rotating rod, thus extending the service life of filter screen belt, and collecting the cleaned impurities through the cooperation of second scraper, connecting strip, connecting rod, support spring and collection box, thus avoiding secondary pollution of filter screen belt, improving the filtration effect of purification mechanism and improving the use effect of nitrogen recovery and circulation device.
[0022] (3) The present invention, through the setting of the collection component and the feeding component, the collection box, the spiral conveyor and the third synchronous belt structure are used in combination to transport the collected impurities to the discharge pipe. The first transmission rod, the rotating roller, the auxiliary ring, the first striking block, the first protective box, the first main gear, the first transmission gear and the first rotating gear are used to assist in the conveying of impurities in the collection box. The rotating block, the second striking block, the first bevel gear structure, the second bevel gear structure and the second transmission rod are used to strike the discharge pipe to prevent impurities from adhering to the inner wall of the discharge pipe. The feeding scraper, the feeding spiral, the second rotating rod, the second rotating gear, the second main gear, the third transmission rod and the second transmission gear are used to feed the discharge pipe to prevent impurities from clogging the discharge pipe. Thus, the collection component and the feeding component work together to clean the impurities inside the filter seat to the drain port, improve the collection and feeding effect of the collection component and the feeding component, and improve the use effect of the nitrogen recovery and circulation device.

[0036] The technical solution of the present invention will be clearly and completely described below with reference to the embodiments. Obviously, the described embodiments are only some embodiments of the present invention, and not all embodiments. Based on the embodiments of the present invention, all other embodiments obtained by those of ordinary skill in the art without creative effort are within the scope of protection of the present invention.
[0037] Example 1 Please see Figures 1-4This application provides a pressure-controlled nitrogen recovery and circulation device, comprising a nitrogen storage tank 1 and a product storage tank 2 connected to the nitrogen storage tank 1. A purification mechanism for purifying the gas in the product storage tank 2 is provided on the other side of the product storage tank 2.

The air inlet plate 5 divides the internal space of the purification chamber 3 into an upper purification chamber and a lower filtration chamber. The partition plate 4 evenly divides the upper purification chamber. The purification mechanism also includes a fine filter element 6 disposed from bottom to top in the upper purification chamber and an adsorption device used in conjunction with the fine filter element 6. Component 7, the adsorption component 7 can adsorb oil and moisture in the mixed gas, and the lower filter chamber is provided with a filter assembly for preliminary filtration of the gas; the filter assembly includes a support base 8 vertically arranged in the lower filter chamber and a filter seat 9 symmetrically inclined in the lower filter chamber. One end of the filter seat 9 is connected to the support base 8, and the upper end of the support base 8 is vertically connected to the middle of the lower end face of the air inlet plate 5. A filter screen belt 10 for preliminary filtration of the gas is movably arranged in the filter seat 9, and a conveyor roller that matches the filter screen belt 10 is provided in the filter seat 9. The outer surface of the conveyor roller is provided with an anti-stick coating; the bottom end of the purification box 3 is provided with a drain port 11 that communicates with the lower filter chamber, and the purification box 3 is provided with a drain pipe that communicates with the drain port 11. The filter seat 9 is inclined downward towards the side closer to the support base 8, and the support base 8 is provided with a connecting groove that matches the filter seat 9.
[0038] In this embodiment, the nitrogen storage tank 1, the product storage tank 2, and the purification box 3 are connected by a pipeline assembly. When the mixed gas in the product storage tank 2 enters the purification box 3, the particulate impurities in the filter screen belt 10 on the filter seat 9 are filtered. The filtered mixed gas enters the fine filter element 6 to filter fine impurities again, and the adsorption element 7 adsorbs other impurities in the mixed gas, so that the organic gas concentration is <0.05% and the N2 purity is >99.5%.
[0039] In this invention, a nitrogen storage tank 1 is provided with a first adapter 12, and a product storage tank 2 is provided with a second adapter 13. Both the first adapter 12 and the second adapter 13 are equipped with gas valves. The gas valves on the nitrogen storage tank 1 are capable of pressure regulation. The piping assembly includes a first air inlet pipe 14 connected to the first adapter 12 and the second adapter 13, and a second air inlet pipe 15 disposed on the second adapter 13 and connected to the purification chamber 3. The purification chamber 3 is symmetrically provided with a first exhaust hood 16 and a second exhaust hood 17. The first exhaust hood 16 is provided with a return air pipe 18 communicating with the first adapter 12, and the second exhaust hood 17 is provided with a return air pipe 18 communicating with the first adapter 12. The first air inlet pipe 14, the second air inlet pipe 15, the return air pipe 18, the air outlet pipe 19 and the third air inlet pipe 20 are connected to the purification box 3. The third air inlet pipe 20 is connected to the purification box 3 and the air outlet pipe 19. An emergency discharge pipeline valve is provided on the third air inlet pipe 20. One-way valves 21 are provided on the first air inlet pipe 14, the second air inlet pipe 15, the return air pipe 18, the air outlet pipe 19 and the third air inlet pipe 20. Pressure gauges 64 are provided on the first adapter 12 and the second adapter 13. Pressure gauges 64 are equipped with pressure sensors and controllers that work with the pressure sensors. The pressure gauges 64 are set with recovery start threshold and replenishment start threshold.
[0040] In this invention, due to the entry of receiving materials and the increase in ambient temperature, the gas in the gas phase space of product storage tank 2 expands, and the pressure gradually rises. When the pressure reaches the recovery start threshold, the pressure sensor sends a signal to the controller, causing the mixed gas in product storage tank 2 to enter the purification tank 3 through the second air inlet pipe 15. After purification by the purification mechanism, the treated gas must meet the following indicators: organic gas concentration <0.05%, N2 purity >99.5%. At this time, because the system operating pressure is stable at 0.8-1.5MPa, the purified high-pressure nitrogen does not need to be pressurized by a compressor. After being adjusted to the appropriate pressure in nitrogen storage tank 1 by the pressure regulating valve, it is directly sent into the tank for storage. When the pressure in product storage tank 2 drops to the recovery stop threshold, the controller closes the pipeline assembly, and the recovery process ends. As the output and ambient temperature decrease, the gas phase space inside the tank shrinks, and the pressure gradually decreases. When the pressure reaches the replenishment start threshold, the pressure sensor sends a signal to the controller, causing the nitrogen storage tank 1 to adjust the high-purity nitrogen to a pressure matching that of the product storage tank 2 through the gas valve and the first inlet pipe 14, and deliver it to the product storage tank 2. When the pressure of the product storage tank 2 rises to the replenishment stop threshold, the controller closes the pipeline assembly, and the replenishment process ends. When the pressure of the nitrogen storage tank exceeds the safety threshold, or when the product storage tank 2 and the pipeline assembly malfunction, causing the normal recovery / replenishment process to fail, the controller introduces the excess gas into the purification box 3 through the third inlet pipe 20 for purification treatment, and then directly discharges the purified gas to the outside. After the system pressure returns to the safe range, the third inlet pipe 20 and the outlet pipe 19 are closed.
[0041] The filter assembly of the present invention further includes a first synchronous belt structure 22 disposed in the filter seat 9 and controlling the movement of the filter screen belt 10, and a connecting belt 23 aligning and connecting the first synchronous belt structure 22 with the filter screen belt 10. The filter seat 9 is provided with a movable groove that fits with the connecting belt 23. Both the upper and lower sides of the connecting belt 23 are provided with sealing strips that seal with the movable groove. The filter screen belt 10, the first synchronous belt structure 22 and the connecting belt 23 are all configured as conveyor belts. The filter seat 9 is provided with a cleaning assembly for cleaning the filter screen belt 10.
[0042] In this embodiment, the first synchronous belt structure 22 is activated, which drives the connecting belt 23 to move, which in turn drives the filter belt 10 to move, so that the filter belt 10 filters the mixed gas and adjusts the filter surface of the filter belt 10 to extend the working cycle of the filter belt 10.
[0043] Example 2 Based on Example 1, referring to Figures 4-7 This is the second embodiment of the present invention. In this embodiment, the cleaning component includes a plurality of first scraper strips 24 vertically disposed on the lower inner side of the filter seat 9 for cleaning the filter belt 10 and a striking roller 25 rotatably disposed on the inner side of the filter seat 9 for knocking and cleaning the filter belt 10.

The cleaning component also includes a second synchronous belt structure 27 coaxially connected to the striking roller 25. One end of the second synchronous belt structure 27 is coaxially connected to one end of the first synchronous belt structure 22.
[0044] In this embodiment, when the first synchronous belt structure 22 is working, it drives the second synchronous belt structure 27 to work, which in turn drives the tapping roller 25 to rotate. The tapping roller 25 then drives the tapping strip 26 to rotate, causing the tapping strip 26 to tap and clean the lower side of the filter belt 10. Additionally, several first scraper strips 24 work together to clean impurities from the filter belt 10. The combined action of the tapping strip 26 and the first scraper strips 24 improves the cleaning effect of the filter belt 10.
[0045] The cleaning assembly of the present invention further includes a cleaning roller 28 rotatably disposed on the upper inner side of the filter seat 9 and attached to the upper side of the filter belt 10. The cleaning roller 28 can tension the filter belt 10. The cleaning roller 28 is fitted with a cleaning brush sleeve 29 for cleaning the inner side of the filter belt 10.

In this invention, the filter seat 9 is provided with a collection assembly for collecting and processing the impurities cleaned by the second scraper 32. The collection assembly includes a collection box 36 disposed inside the filter seat 9 and spiral conveyors 37 symmetrically and movably disposed in the collection box 36. The inner side of the collection box 36 is provided with a collection groove that cooperates with the two spiral conveyors 37. The upper end of the collection box 36 is provided with a collection port that cooperates with the second scraper 32. A connecting strip 33 is disposed in the collection port, so that the second scraper 32 cleans the impurities on the second scraper 32 into the collection box 36. The side of the collection box 36 near the first synchronous belt structure 22 is fixed to the inner wall of the filter seat 9. The other end of the collection box 36 extends into the interior of the filter seat 9. A discharge pipe 65 is vertically disposed on the lower side of the other end of the collection box 36. The collection box 36 is provided with a discharge groove that connects the collection groove and the discharge pipe 65. The discharge pipe 65 can guide the discharged impurities into the drain port 11.
[0050] In this embodiment, when the second scraper 32 cleans the impurities on the cleaning brush sleeve 29 and guides the cleaned impurities into the collection box 36, the collection groove in the collection box 36 collects the impurities, and controls the spiral conveyor 37 to rotate, so that the spiral conveyor 37 transports the impurities to the discharge trough and guides them into the discharge pipe 65, thereby guiding the impurities inside the filter seat 9 into the drain outlet 11 through the discharge pipe 65.
[0051] In this invention, a third synchronous belt structure 38 is coaxially provided on the first rotating rod 31. The vertical cross section of the third synchronous belt structure 38 is triangular. One end of the third synchronous belt structure 38 is provided with a first transmission rod 39 coaxially connected to the screw conveyor 37, so that the drive motor 30 and the first rotating rod 31 cooperate to control the two screw conveyors 37 to perform conveying work through the third synchronous belt structure 38 and the first transmission rod 39.
[0052] In this embodiment, when the drive motor 30 is started and the first rotating rod 31 is driven to rotate, the first rotating rod 31 drives the third synchronous belt structure 38 to work, and the third synchronous belt structure 38 drives the two first transmission rods 39 to rotate, and the first transmission rods 39 drive the spiral conveyor 37 to rotate.
[0053] In this invention, the collection box 36 is provided with an auxiliary component for assisting in the conveying of impurities.

[0054] In this embodiment, when the rotating roller 40 rotates, it causes the auxiliary ring 41 to rotate, which in turn causes the protrusion to rotate. The protrusion controls the first striking block 42 to move upward, and causes the first striking block 42 to strike the inner top surface of the auxiliary cavity, thereby preventing impurities in the collection box 36 from adhering and accumulating. When the first striking block 42 moves up and down, the connecting block causes the guide block 43 to move on the guide rod 44, which in turn causes the guide block 43 to extend and retract the buffer spring 45.
[0055] The auxiliary components of this invention also include a first protective box 46 disposed in the filter seat 9 and aligned with the first transmission rod 39, and a first main gear 47 disposed in the first protective box 46 and sleeved on the first transmission rod 39.

[0058] In this embodiment, when the screw conveyor 37 is working, it drives the second transmission rod 55 to rotate, the second transmission rod 55 drives the second bevel gear structure 54 to rotate, the second bevel gear structure 54 drives the first bevel gear structure 53 to rotate through the second connecting rod, the first bevel gear structure 53 drives the rotating block 51 to rotate through the first connecting rod, and the rotating block 51 drives the second striking block 52 to strike the discharge pipe 65 to assist the discharge pipe 65 in discharging materials.
[0059] The feeding assembly of the present invention further includes a feeding scraper 56 rotatably disposed in the feeding trough and a feeding auger 57 disposed in the discharge pipe 65. The feeding scraper 56 cleans the inner wall of the feeding trough, and the bottom end of the feeding scraper 56 is coaxially connected to the top end of the feeding auger 57. The feeding scraper 56 includes a rotating frame disposed in the middle of the feeding trough and a scraper connected to the rotating frame.
[0060] In this embodiment, when the discharge pipe 65 discharges material, the discharge scraper 56 rotates to clean the impurities on the inner wall of the discharge trough. The rotation of the discharge scraper 56 drives the discharge auger 57 to rotate, thereby cleaning the impurities in the discharge pipe 65.
[0061] The feeding assembly of this invention further includes a second protective box 58 disposed on the upper inner side of the collection box 36 and a second rotating rod 59 rotatably disposed on the second protective box 58 and coaxially connected to the feeding scraper 56; the feeding assembly also includes a second rotating gear 60 rotatably disposed in the second protective box 58 and coaxially connected to the second rotating rod 59 and a second main gear 61 rotatably disposed on the other side of the second protective box 58.

[0062] In this embodiment, when the screw conveyor 37 is working, it drives the second transmission rod 55 to rotate, which in turn drives the second bevel gear structure 54 to rotate. The second bevel gear structure 54 then drives the third transmission rod 62 to rotate, which in turn drives the second main gear 61 to rotate. This causes the second main gear 61 to drive the second transmission gear 63 to rotate, which in turn drives the second rotating gear 60 to rotate. This causes the second rotating gear 60 to drive the second rotating rod 59 to rotate, which in turn drives the feeding scraper 56 and the feeding screw 57 to rotate.
