Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This invention relates to the field of water separation technology, and in particular to an industrial continuous production method and system for deuterium-poor water. Background Technology
[0002] Water is the source of life, and its chemical composition has a profound impact on life activities and many industrial processes. In addition to ordinary water molecules (H2O), natural water also contains a small amount of water molecules composed of the stable isotope of hydrogen, deuterium (D) (D2O, commonly known as heavy water) and its associated molecules (HDO), collectively referred to as deuterated water.
[0003] For a long time, heavy water has been valued for its important role as a neutron moderator in the nuclear industry, while the impact of trace amounts of deuterated water in ordinary water on organisms and specific chemical processes has been overlooked. In recent years, increasing scientific research has shown that trace amounts of deuterium in the environment are not harmless to organisms. Deuterated water can interfere with key life processes such as enzymatic reactions, cell division, and DNA synthesis. When the deuterium concentration in an organism is below the natural background level—that is, when drinking "low-deuterium water" or "low-deuterium water" with very low deuterated water content—it shows certain positive biological effects, such as potential in inhibiting tumor cell growth, improving immunity, and delaying aging. Furthermore, in the semiconductor industry, using low-deuterium water to clean wafers can significantly reduce device leakage current, improving product performance and yield; reducing the deuterium content in the primary loop water of nuclear power plants also helps reduce radiation decomposition products and lower the risk of system corrosion.
[0004] However, transforming deuterated water from laboratory samples into a large-scale industrial product faces enormous technological challenges, with the core bottleneck lying in separation technology. Since light water (H₂O) and deuterated water (HDO, D₂O) are isotopic molecules, their physicochemical properties are extremely similar, especially their molecular weights, resulting in relative volatility (α) approaching 1 (typically around 1.05-1.06). This characteristic means that achieving effective isotopic separation requires extremely high separation stages and very high reflux ratios, leading to staggering energy consumption and equipment investment in traditional distillation methods, making them economically infeasible.
[0005] Currently, there is no technically feasible and cost-controllable deuterium-reduced water production process in the industry. Related deuterium-reduced water products lack unified industry standards, resulting in inconsistent quality, making it impossible to achieve large-scale production, let alone conduct large-scale double-blind experiments on deuterium-reduced water. Summary of the Invention
[0006] The purpose of this invention is to provide an industrial continuous production method and system for deuterated water, using natural water as raw material and employing a vapor compression heat pump distillation process to produce deuterated water products with a deuterated water content that is 1-2 orders of magnitude lower than that of natural water (the deuterated water content in seawater is about 30 ppm, and in freshwater).
[0007] The technical solution adopted in this invention is:
[0008] An industrial continuous production method for deuterium-poor water includes the following steps:
[0009] Distillation separation steps: The preheated feed water is introduced into a distillation column device for distillation. The distillation column device has at least one distillation column packed with structured packing. Deuterated water liquid is enriched at the bottom of the distillation column device, and deuterated water vapor is enriched at the top of the distillation column device.
[0010] Vapor compression step: Deuterium-rich water vapor is drawn from the top deuterium-rich water vapor outlet of the end distillation column and compressed to 1.5 to 2.5 bar by a vapor compressor;
[0011] Condensation heating and product collection steps: The compressed deuterated water vapor is introduced into a condenser to condense and release heat, providing rising steam as a heat source for the distillation column unit; part of the deuterated water obtained from condensation is collected as deuterated water product, and the deuterated water content in the deuterated water product is not higher than 0.3 ppm; the other part is returned to the top of the designated distillation column of the distillation column unit as reflux liquid.
[0012] Furthermore, it includes a raw material supply and preheating step: the raw water is pressurized and then preheated by exchanging heat with the hot fluid drawn from the distillation column unit.
[0013] Furthermore, in the steam compression step, the steam is compressed to 2 bar.
[0014] Furthermore, the content of deuterated water in deuterated aquatic products is more than one order of magnitude lower than that in the raw natural water.
[0015] Furthermore, when the number of distillation columns is greater than 2, a low-deuterium water product is produced with a deuterated water content that is 2 to 3 orders of magnitude lower than that of the raw material natural water.
[0016] Furthermore, the distillation separation step is carried out in a single distillation column; compressed steam is introduced into a condenser located at the bottom of the distillation column to condense into deuterium-rich water, a portion of which is collected as deuterium-rich water product, and the other portion is led to the top of the distillation column as reflux liquid; the heat released by condensation is used to evaporate the liquid at the bottom of the distillation column to generate rising steam; the liquid drawn from the bottom of the distillation column is output as ordinary water or deuterium-rich water byproduct after exchanging heat with the feed water.
[0017] Furthermore, the distillation column apparatus includes a zero-water distillation column and at least one deuteration column, wherein the at least one deuteration column is connected in series from the zero-water distillation column to one side of the zero-water distillation column; the distillation separation steps include: sequentially leading the top vapor of the zero-water distillation column or the deuteration column to the bottom of the next deuteration column as rising vapor, and leading the top vapor of the last deuteration column to a steam compressor to compress it to 1.5 to 2.5 bar to obtain compressed steam; and sequentially recirculating the bottom liquid of each deuteration column back to the top of the previous deuteration column in the opposite direction of the steam flow after passing through a hot water pump, and connecting the bottom liquid of the first deuteration column to the top of the zero-water distillation column via a hot water pump as reflux liquid;
[0018] Condensation heating and product collection steps: Compressed steam is introduced into the condenser located at the bottom of the No. 0 water distillation column to condense the deuterium-rich water. Part of the deuterium-rich water is collected as deuterium-rich water product, and the other part is led to the top of the last deuterium removal column as reflux liquid. The liquid drawn from the bottom of the No. 0 water distillation column is heat-exchanged with the feed water and output as ordinary water or deuterium-rich water by-product.
[0019] Specifically, as a feasible implementation, the distillation column device includes a No. 0 water distillation column and a No. 1 deuterium removal column. The distillation separation step also includes inter-column vapor-liquid exchange: the vapor at the top of the No. 0 water distillation column is introduced into the bottom of the No. 1 deuterium removal column as rising vapor; at the same time, the liquid at the bottom of the No. 1 deuterium removal column is transported to the top of the No. 0 water distillation column as reflux liquid.
[0020] Steam is drawn from the top of the No. 1 deuterium removal tower and compressed. The compressed steam is then introduced into a condenser located at the bottom of the No. 0 water distillation tower. The liquid drawn from the bottom of the No. 0 water distillation tower is then heat-exchanged with the raw water and output as ordinary water or deuterium-rich water as a byproduct.
[0021] Specifically, as a feasible implementation, the distillation column apparatus includes a zero water distillation column and at least two deuteration columns. The distillation separation step further includes multi-stage distillation: steam is passed through the bottom of each column in the direction of zero water distillation column → first deuteration column → second deuteration column → ... → nth deuteration column, while liquid is returned in the opposite direction from the bottom of the nth deuteration column to the top of each preceding column.
[0022] Steam is drawn from the top of the nth deuterium removal column at the end and compressed to 1.5 to 2.5 bar by a steam compressor; the compressed steam is introduced into a condenser located at the bottom of the zero water distillation column; the liquid drawn from the bottom of the zero water distillation column is discharged as ordinary water or deuterium-rich water byproduct after heat exchange with the feed water.
[0023] Furthermore, the distillation column apparatus comprises at least a zero-water distillation column, one or more deuterium removal columns, and one or more deuterium enrichment columns, wherein at least one deuterium removal column is connected in series from the zero-water distillation column to one side of the zero-water distillation column; at least one deuterium enrichment column is connected in series from the zero-water distillation column to the other side of the zero-water distillation column; the distillation separation steps include:
[0024] The top steam from each deuterium enrichment tower is sequentially drawn in reverse order from the nth deuterium removal tower to the bottom of the previous deuterium enrichment tower as rising steam; the top steam from the first deuterium enrichment tower is drawn to the bottom of the zero water distillation tower as rising steam; the top steam from the zero water distillation tower or deuterium removal tower is sequentially drawn to the bottom of the next deuterium removal tower as rising steam, and the top steam from the last deuterium removal tower is drawn to the steam compressor and compressed to 1.5 to 2.5 bar to obtain compressed steam;
[0025] The bottom liquid of each deuteration tower is pumped through a hot water pump and then refluxed in the opposite direction of the steam flow from the bottom of the nth deuteration tower to the top of the previous deuteration tower as reflux liquid. The bottom liquid of the first deuteration tower is connected to the top of the zero water distillation tower via a hot water pump as reflux liquid. The bottom liquid of the zero water distillation tower or the deuterium enrichment tower is refluxed sequentially to the top of the next deuterium enrichment tower as reflux liquid.
[0026] The condensation heating and product extraction steps are as follows: compressed steam is introduced into the condenser located at the bottom of the last deuterium enrichment tower to condense the deuterium-reduced water. Part of the deuterium-reduced water is extracted as deuterium-reduced water product, and the other part of the deuterium-reduced water is led to the top of the last deuterium removal tower as reflux liquid after heat exchange with the raw water in the heat exchange device; liquid is drawn from the bottom of the last deuterium enrichment tower as deuterium-reduced water by-product output.
[0027] Furthermore, as a feasible implementation, the number of deuterium removal towers is the same as the number of deuterium enrichment towers, and the deuterium removal towers and deuterium enrichment towers are arranged symmetrically around the No. 0 water distillation tower.
[0028] Furthermore, it also includes a desalination step: a portion of the liquid is drawn from the deuterated water liquid enrichment end of the distillation column group for desalination treatment to prevent salt accumulation.
[0029] And / or by-product treatment steps: Deuterium-rich water is drawn from the bottom of the distillation column at the end of the distillation column unit as a by-product.
[0030] Furthermore, in the vapor compression cycle step, the outlet pressure of the vapor compressor is determined based on the number of distillation columns and the fluid resistance, so that the operating pressure of the deuterium-containing water vapor is close to atmospheric pressure, and a stable vapor flow closed loop is formed.
[0031] Specifically, the outlet pressure of the steam compressor is determined based on the number of deuterium removal towers and deuterium enrichment towers and the tower resistance. The principle is that the pressure of the last deuterium removal tower should be as close to atmospheric pressure as possible, and the pressure of the last deuterium enrichment tower should be the highest.

[0107] The specific working principle of the present invention will be described below with reference to several embodiments:
[0108] Example 1
[0109] like Figure 2As shown, the ambient temperature raw water (flow rate approximately 10,000 kg / h) pumped by the original freshwater pump is pressurized and then exchanged with distilled water drawn from the bottom of the water distillation column (deuterium removal column). The water is then fed into the middle section of the distillation column (60-70 theoretical plates from the bottom) to participate in the distillation process. The distilled water, with a lower temperature after heat exchange (flow rate approximately 9,400-9,500 kg / h), is drawn off as ordinary distilled water product.
[0110] The distillation column is approximately 60-70 meters high and filled with structured packing. Deuterium-containing water vapor (approximately 0.3 ppm deuterium, flow rate approximately 10,000 kg / h) drawn from the top of the column is compressed to 1.5-2 bar by a steam compressor and then condensed in a pressure-type deuterium-containing water vapor condenser located at the bottom of the column. The heat released during condensation causes the distilled water at the bottom of the column to evaporate, forming rising stripping vapor. The heat exchange temperature difference in the condenser is controlled at 0.5-2℃. The unevaporated distillate (distilled water) is drawn off and exchanges heat with the raw water in a heat exchanger, ultimately being output as ordinary distilled water. The deuterium-containing water condensed in the deuterium-containing water vapor condenser is pressurized by a hot water pump; 400-500 kg / h is drawn off as deuterium-containing water product, and the remaining 9500-9600 kg / h is sent to the top of the water distillation column as reflux liquid.
[0111] Example 2
[0112] like Figure 3 As shown, the raw water (flow rate 10000 kg / h) pumped under pressure by the raw water pump exchanges heat with the distilled water (rectified liquid, flow rate 9400-9500 kg / h) drawn from the bottom of the No. 0 water distillation column in a heat exchanger. The distilled water then enters the middle section of the No. 0 water distillation column (60 theoretical plates from the bottom upwards) to participate in distillation. The distilled water (rectified liquid) whose temperature drops to near room temperature after heat exchange is then drawn off as ordinary distilled water product.
[0113] Both the No. 0 water distillation column and the No. 1 deuteration column are structured packed columns with a height of 60-70 meters and a theoretical number of 200 trays each. Steam from the top of the No. 0 water distillation column is piped to the bottom of the No. 1 deuteration column as rising gas. The distillate (distilled water) from the bottom of the No. 1 deuteration column is pressurized by a hot water pump and sent to the top of the No. 0 water distillation column as reflux. The deuterated water vapor (0.3 ppm deuterated water content) drawn from the top of the No. 1 deuteration column is compressed to 1.5-2 bar by a steam compressor and condensed in a pressure-type deuterated water condenser located at the bottom of the No. 0 water distillation column. The released heat causes the distilled water (distillate) at the bottom of the No. 0 water distillation column to evaporate and vaporize, forming rising gas. The deuterium-rich water condensed in the condenser is pressurized by a hot water pump. Of this, 9400-9500 kg / h is sent to the top of the No. 1 deuterium removal tower as reflux liquid, and the remaining 500-600 kg / h is drawn out as deuterium-rich water product.
[0114] Example 3
[0115] like Figure 4 As shown, the raw water (flow rate 10000 kg / h) pressurized by the raw water pump exchanges heat with the hot distilled water drawn from the bottom of the No. 0 water distillation column, and then is sent to the middle of the No. 0 water distillation column to participate in distillation. The distilled water with a lower temperature after heat exchange is drawn out as ordinary distilled water product.
[0116] The No. 0 water distillation column, No. 1 deuteration column, and No. 2 deuteration column all have the same specifications: a height of 60-70 meters, internally filled with structured packing material, and approximately 200 theoretical trays. Steam from the top of the No. 0 water distillation column is piped to the bottom of the No. 1 deuteration column as rising gas; the hot distillate (distilled water) from the bottom of the No. 1 deuteration column is pressurized by a hot water pump and sent to the top of the No. 0 water distillation column as reflux. Similarly, steam from the top of the No. 1 deuteration column is piped to the bottom of the No. 2 deuteration column as rising gas; the distillate (distilled water) from the bottom of the No. 2 deuteration column is pressurized by a hot water pump and sent to the top of the No. 1 deuteration column as reflux.
[0117] The deuterated water vapor (flow rate 10000 kg / h, deuterated water content approximately 0.3 ppm) drawn from the top of Deuteration Tower No. 2 is compressed to 1.5-2 bar by a steam compressor and then condensed in the deuterated water vapor condenser located at the bottom of Water Distillation Tower No. 0. The released heat causes the distillate (distilled water) at the bottom of Water Distillation Tower No. 0 to vaporize, forming rising gas. The deuterated water condensed in the condenser is pressurized by a hot water pump, with 9300-9400 kg / h sent to the top of Deuteration Tower No. 2 as reflux liquid, and the remaining 600-700 kg / h drawn out as deuterated water product.
[0118] Example 4
[0119] like Figure 5 As shown, the fresh water (flow rate of about 10,000 kg / h) delivered by the original fresh water booster pump exchanges heat with the deuterium-rich water condensate (flow rate of about 9,300-9,400 kg / h) drawn from the deuterium-rich water vapor condenser located at the bottom of the No. 0 water distillation column, and then is added to the middle of the No. 0 water distillation column to participate in the distillation.
[0120] The specifications of the No. 0 water distillation column, No. 1 deuterium removal column, No. 2 deuterium removal column, No. 3 deuterium removal column, No. 1 deuterium enrichment column, No. 2 deuterium enrichment column, and No. 3 deuterium enrichment column are uniform: the height is 60-70 meters, the interior is filled with structured packing, and the theoretical number of trays is approximately 200. The gas-liquid flow direction of each column is designed as follows: the top vapor of the No. 3 deuterium enrichment column is introduced into the bottom of the No. 2 deuterium enrichment column as rising gas through a pipeline; the top vapor of the No. 2 deuterium enrichment column is introduced into the bottom of the No. 1 deuterium enrichment column as rising gas through a pipeline; the top vapor of the No. 1 deuterium enrichment column is introduced into the bottom of the No. 0 water distillation column as rising gas through a pipeline; the top vapor of the No. 1 deuterium removal column is introduced into the bottom of the No. 2 deuterium removal column as rising gas through a pipeline; the top vapor of the No. 2 deuterium removal column is introduced into the bottom of the No. 3 deuterium removal column as rising gas through a pipeline.
[0121] The reflux liquid delivery paths are as follows: the bottom distillate (distilled water) of the No. 3 deuterium removal tower is pressurized by a hot water pump and sent to the top of the No. 2 deuterium removal tower as reflux liquid; the bottom distillate (distilled water) of the No. 2 deuterium removal tower is pressurized by a hot water pump and sent to the top of the No. 1 deuterium removal tower as reflux liquid; the bottom distillate (distilled water) of the No. 1 deuterium removal tower is pressurized by a hot water pump and sent to the top of the No. 0 water distillation tower as reflux liquid; the bottom distillate (distilled water) of the No. 0 water distillation tower is pressurized by a hot water pump and sent to the top of the No. 1 deuterium enrichment tower as reflux liquid; the bottom distillate (distilled water) of the No. 1 deuterium enrichment tower is pressurized by a hot water pump and sent to the top of the No. 2 deuterium enrichment tower as reflux liquid; the bottom distillate (distilled water) of the No. 2 deuterium enrichment tower is pressurized by a hot water pump and sent to the top of the No. 3 deuterium enrichment tower as reflux liquid.
[0122] The deuterium-rich steam (flow rate 150,000 kg / h) drawn from the top of the No. 3 deuterium removal tower is compressed to 2-2.5 bar by a steam compressor and then fed into a deuterium-rich water steam condenser located at the bottom of the No. 3 deuterium enrichment tower. This condensation releases heat, causing the distillate (deuterium-rich water) at the bottom of the No. 3 deuterium enrichment tower to vaporize and form rising gas. The 150,000 kg of deuterium-rich water condensed in the condenser is pressurized by a hot water pump and first exchanges heat with the raw water. 600-700 kg / h of this water is drawn off as deuterium-rich water product, while the remaining 143,000-144,000 kg / h is sent to the top of the No. 3 deuterium removal tower as reflux. The deuterium-rich water (flow rate approximately 600-700 kg / h) drawn from the bottom of the No. 3 deuterium enrichment tower can be further processed through distillation to produce qualified heavy water product.
[0123] The present invention, employing the above technical solution, has the following beneficial effects: 1. The raw material is natural water, which is widely available and has a stable supply, eliminating the need for special procurement costs. 2. The production process utilizes a full heat pump distillation process, resulting in a simple equipment structure, controllable engineering costs, and ease of industrialization. 3. The innovative application of a vapor compression heat pump distillation scheme addresses the minimal difference in boiling points between light water and deuterated water, solving the technical pain points of traditional distillation requiring extremely high reflux ratios and theoretical plate numbers, thus significantly reducing distillation energy consumption. 4. Through the coordinated delivery of the rising gas pipeline at the top of the distillation column and the hot water pump for the distillate liquid at the bottom, the parallel distillation columns are integrated into a unified distillation system with a more sufficient number of theoretical plates at a specific height, further optimizing energy consumption performance.
