Description
Technical Field
[0001] This invention relates to the field of desulfurization technology, specifically to a disc dewatering machine system and its output adjustment method. Background Technology
[0002] Currently, limestone-gypsum wet flue gas desulfurization (FGD) is the mainstream desulfurization process for large-scale coal-fired power units in thermal power plants. Traditional vacuum belt dewatering machines are typically used in this process. The working principle of limestone-gypsum wet FGD is as follows: limestone powder is mixed with water to form a slurry, which reacts with sulfur dioxide to produce calcium sulfate. Once the calcium sulfate reaches a certain saturation level, it crystallizes to form calcium sulfate dihydrate. This calcium sulfate dihydrate is then desulfurized by a vacuum belt dewatering machine to produce calcium sulfate, i.e., gypsum filter cake. The vacuum belt dewatering machine mainly consists of a vacuum system, a belt conveyor system, and a filter cloth cleaning system. The working principle is as follows: under the action of a vacuum pump, a negative pressure environment is created inside the equipment. Sludge is evenly spread on the filter cloth. As the belt moves, the water in the sludge is rapidly extracted under negative pressure, forming a filter cake. The filter cake is peeled off by a scraper at the end of the belt, while the filter cloth is cleaned by the cleaning system and then re-enters the next dewatering process.
[0003] In existing limestone-gypsum wet flue gas desulfurization processes, disc dewatering machines are generally used. Compared with traditional vacuum belt dewatering machines, disc dewatering machines have advantages such as smaller footprint and faster filtration speed. For example, in terms of footprint, the disc dewatering machine occupies approximately 20% of the area of a vacuum belt dewatering machine. Therefore, disc dewatering machines are widely used in the wet desulfurization gypsum dewatering process of flue gas desulfurization in thermal power plants.
[0004] The existing disc dewatering machine mainly consists of a distribution head, filter discs, a tank, and a transmission device. The distribution head is the core structure of the disc dewatering machine, primarily composed of a moving disc and a stationary disc. One side of the moving disc is connected to the connecting branch pipe of the filter disc, and the other side is connected to a vacuum pump through the functional area of the stationary disc, thereby generating a vacuum that allows the desulfurized slurry in the adsorption tank of the filter disc to complete the gypsum dewatering process. The stationary disc consists of three functional areas: a slurry suction area, a drying area, and a discharge backflushing area. The moving and stationary discs of the distribution head remain tightly fitted under the elastic force of the compensation mechanism, sliding relative to each other as the main shaft rotates. This prevents leakage of the fluid medium between the slurry suction area, the drying area, the discharge backflushing area, and the atmosphere, forming relatively independent and sealed chambers. As the main shaft rotates, each hole on the moving disc and the groove on the stationary disc form a connecting channel, switching between the three processes of slurry suction, drying, and discharge backflushing.
[0005] Current disc dewatering machines have the following problems: they can only operate at the mains frequency. Under the new power system, deep peak shaving of coal-fired units has become the new normal, resulting in large load adjustments and long periods of low-load operation. The desulfurization facilities have poor flexibility; for example, disc dewatering machines can only operate at the mains frequency, and the vacuum level can only be maintained between -50 kPa and -70 kPa. Under low-load, low-sulfur conditions, the density of the desulfurization slurry remains low for extended periods. The density control range for the desulfurization slurry in the desulfurization absorption tower is 1080 kg / m³. 3 Up to 1130kg / m 3 When the density of the desulfurization slurry is not less than 1130 kg / m³ 3 At that time, the disc dewatering machine starts dewatering, and when the density of the desulfurization slurry is lower than 1080 kg / m³, the dewatering process continues. 3 At times, the disc dewatering machine is manually shut down. Therefore, under low load and low sulfur content conditions, the output of desulfurized gypsum is relatively small, and the disc dewatering machine can only be frequently started and stopped to adjust the output of the gypsum dewatering equipment. It is impossible to operate under varying conditions according to the unit load, resulting in high energy consumption of the equipment and seriously affecting the energy-saving operation of the desulfurization facility. Summary of the Invention
[0006] In view of this, the present invention provides an improved disc dewatering machine system and output adjustment method to solve the problem that under low load and low sulfur content operating conditions, the output of desulfurized gypsum is small, and the disc dewatering machine can only be frequently started and stopped to adjust the output of the gypsum dewatering equipment. It is impossible to operate under different operating conditions according to the unit load, resulting in high energy consumption of the equipment and seriously affecting the energy-saving operation of the desulfurization facility.

[0021] To make the objectives, technical solutions, and advantages of the embodiments of the present invention clearer, the technical solutions of the embodiments of the present invention will be clearly and completely described below with reference to the accompanying drawings. Obviously, the described embodiments are only some embodiments of the present invention, not all embodiments. Based on the embodiments of the present invention, all other embodiments obtained by those skilled in the art without creative effort are within the scope of protection of the present invention.
[0022] Regarding the problems mentioned in the background technology, the applicant, through in-depth analysis and consideration, discovered that: the motor driving the vacuum pump of the disc dewatering machine is an industrial frequency motor, which cannot adjust the power of the disc dewatering machine according to the unit load and the actual output of gypsum. The thickness of the gypsum filter cake in the disc dewatering machine is generally controlled between 1 cm and 2 cm; when the disc dewatering machine is put into operation, the output of each absorbent disc is almost constant and directly proportional to the thickness of the gypsum filter cake, thanks to output calibration. However, in actual operation, there is a lack of means to monitor the thickness of the gypsum filter cake in the disc dewatering machine, making it impossible to effectively measure its thickness. Therefore, this application adds an online filter cake thickness tester to continuously monitor the thickness of the gypsum filter cake online, and transmits the thickness signal of the gypsum filter cake to the desulfurization dispersion control system in real time. This establishes a functional relationship between the thickness of the gypsum filter cake and the output of the disc dewatering machine, thereby controlling the output frequency of the vacuum pump motor to control the output of the disc dewatering machine in a timely manner.

The distributed control system 27 is signal-connected to the thickness gauge 21 and the pressure transmitter 22. The distributed control system 27 is connected to the vacuum pump 26 through a variable frequency motor. The variable frequency motor is adapted to change the output frequency to adjust the output of the vacuum pump 26. The distributed control system 27 is adapted to acquire the thickness signal transmitted by the thickness gauge 21, the pressure signal transmitted by the pressure transmitter 22, the flue gas flow rate at the inlet of the desulfurization facility, and the SO2 concentration of the raw flue gas at the inlet of the desulfurization facility in real time, and change the output frequency of the variable frequency motor in a timely manner.
