Description
Technical Field
[0001] This invention relates to the field of air pollution control, and in particular to an air pollution control device and a method for preparing lithium battery anode materials. Background Technology
[0002] With the continuous growth of industrialization and energy demand, air pollution control and the development of lithium battery anode materials have become two important issues in the current environmental and energy fields. In terms of air pollution control, the large amounts of flue gas emitted by key industries such as power and steel contain pollutants such as sulfur dioxide, nitrogen oxides, and particulate matter. In the field of lithium-ion batteries, the actual capacity of commercial graphite anode materials has approached their theoretical value, which is difficult to meet the urgent demand for high energy density in electric vehicles and other applications. Developing air pollution control equipment that can adapt to complex working conditions and achieve efficient and coordinated control, as well as exploring new anode materials with high capacity and long cycle life and their controllable preparation methods, are of great significance for promoting the coordinated development of environmental governance technologies and new energy technologies.
[0003] Existing air pollution control devices use an air intake assembly to discharge the gas to be treated into the treatment tank. The air is then treated through a filter hood and an adsorption assembly. The inside of the filter hood and the gas during the treatment process are sprayed to improve the filtration effect. The treatment assembly, in conjunction with a water source, removes the filter residue inside the filter pores, thus improving the self-cleaning effect of the equipment.
[0004] However, in the process of treating air pollution, the existing air pollution control devices are unstable in terms of air flow rate due to the front-end calcination reaction during the gas input into the treatment tank. When the air flow rate increases suddenly, the treatment effect is easily reduced.
[0005] Therefore, it is necessary to provide an air pollution control device and a method for preparing lithium battery anode materials to solve the above-mentioned technical problems. Summary of the Invention

[0042] The present invention will be further described below with reference to the accompanying drawings and embodiments.
[0043] First Embodiment
[0044] Please refer to the following: Figures 1-6 An air pollution control device includes: an inlet mechanism 1 disposed on the ground, the inlet mechanism 1 including support plates 101, two support plates 101 being disposed on the ground, an inlet pipe 102 being fixedly installed inside the two support plates 101, two lower baffles 103 being symmetrically fixedly installed at the bottom of the inner wall of the inlet pipe 102, and an upper baffle 104 being fixedly installed at the top of the inner wall of the inlet pipe 102;

[0047] A circulation mechanism 4 is connected to the bottom of the treatment mechanism 3;
[0048] Transparent windows 12, both of which are disposed on one side of the governance mechanism 3.
[0049] The adsorption mechanism 2 includes an adsorption port 202, one of which is connected to one end of the inlet pipe 102. An adsorption box 201 is fixedly installed between the two adsorption ports 202. The adsorption box 201 is set on the ground by a bracket. An activated carbon box 204 is fixedly installed inside the adsorption box 201. One end of one of the adsorption ports 202 is connected to a gas delivery pipe 203.
[0050] The treatment mechanism 3 is set on the ground. The treatment mechanism 3 includes a treatment tank 301. The treatment tank 301 is set on the ground through a bottom cover 303. One end of the gas supply pipe 203 passes through the outer wall of the treatment tank 301 and extends into the interior. A top cover 302 is fixedly installed on the top of the treatment tank 301. Two packing discs 304 are respectively set on the inner wall of the treatment tank 301 through two bearing rings. Several vent holes 305 are opened in the interior of the two packing discs 304. Two transparent windows 12 are set on one side of the treatment tank 301.
[0051] The circulation mechanism 4 includes a water suction pipe 401 and a water outlet column 405. The water suction pipe 401 is connected to the bottom of the bottom cover 303. The end of the water suction pipe 401 is connected to a circulation pump 403 through a three-way valve 402. The outlet end of the circulation pump 403 is connected to an outlet pipe 404. One end of the outlet pipe 404 penetrates the outer wall of the treatment tank 301 and extends into the interior. The surface of the water outlet column 405 is rotatably mounted on the inner wall of the treatment tank 301 through two support plates. A water spraying groove 407 is provided at the top of the water outlet column 405. The surface of the water outlet pipe 404 is rotatably mounted to the interior of the water spraying groove 407. Two water spraying pipes 406 are connected to both sides of the water spraying groove 407. Several water spraying holes 408 are provided at the bottom of each of the two water spraying pipes 406. The bottom end of the water outlet column 405 penetrates the top of the two packing discs 304 and extends to the top of the bottom cover 303.
[0052] In actual use, several porous packing balls are placed on the top of each of the two packing discs 304; the surface of the water outlet column 405 is slidably installed with the interior of the two packing discs 304; the alkaline solution inside the treatment tank 301 is a sodium hydroxide solution.
[0053] The working principle of the air pollution control device provided by this invention is as follows:
[0054] First, the exhaust gas channel generated during the tube furnace roasting process is connected to the inlet pipe 102. The exhaust gas is input into the interior of the inlet pipe 102. After the exhaust gas enters the inlet pipe 102, it first flows through the lower baffle 103, and then flows from below the upper baffle 104 to another lower baffle 103, which slows down and stabilizes the exhaust gas flow rate. At the same time, it can also settle the solid particulate impurities generated during the roasting process, and finally flow out from the end of the inlet pipe 102.
[0055] Then, after the exhaust gas flows out from the end of the inlet pipe 102, it enters the interior of the adsorption box 201 from the adsorption port 202 on the left. Inside the adsorption box 201, the exhaust gas removes odors and adsorbs fine particles through the activated carbon box 204, and then is discharged into the treatment tank 301 through the gas delivery pipe 203.
[0056] Finally, the exhaust gas enters the treatment tank 301 and flows from bottom to top through two packing discs 304. Porous packing balls are placed on each of the packing discs 304. The alkaline solution inside the treatment tank 301 is drawn by the circulation pump 403 and discharged from the outlet pipe 404 into the water spraying trough 407. Then, the two water spraying pipes 406 discharge downward through the water spraying holes 408 to spray the alkaline solution onto the packing balls. When the exhaust gas flows through the two packing discs 304, it passes through the vent holes 305 and adsorbs the hydrogen fluoride gas contained in the exhaust gas. The treated gas is finally discharged from the top cover 302.
[0057] Compared with related technologies, the air pollution control device provided by the present invention has the following beneficial effects:
[0058] By using the staggered lower baffles 103 and upper baffles 104 inside the inlet pipe 102, the exhaust gas velocity is effectively slowed down to stabilize the gas volume. Solid particulate impurities generated during the roasting process settle at the bottom of the pipe. The activated carbon box 204 removes odors and adsorbs small particles. The exhaust gas flows through the porous packing balls piled on the packing disc 304. The alkaline solution is lifted to the water spray pipe 406 by the circulation pump 403 and sprayed downwards evenly. This allows the alkaline solution to contact and neutralize the hydrogen fluoride gas in the rising exhaust gas on the surface of the packing balls, achieving efficient removal of hydrogen fluoride. The alkaline solution is recycled to reduce costs. This achieves graded and synergistic treatment of solid particles, odors, and hydrogen fluoride in the roasting exhaust gas, significantly improving the environmental protection level.
[0059] Second Embodiment
[0060] Please refer to the following: Figures 7-12 Based on the air pollution control device provided in the first embodiment of this application, the second embodiment of this application proposes another air pollution control device. The second embodiment is merely a preferred embodiment of the first embodiment, and the implementation of the second embodiment will not affect the separate implementation of the first embodiment.
[0061] Specifically, the difference in the air pollution control device provided in the second embodiment of this application is that a cooling mechanism 5 is fixedly installed on the surface of the inlet pipe 102. The cooling mechanism 5 includes a cooling cylinder 501 and a cooling water tank 505. The cooling cylinder 501 is fixedly installed on the surface of the inlet pipe 102. Three water flow baffles 502 are fixedly installed on the inner wall of the cooling cylinder 501. The cooling water tank 505 is set on the ground. A cooling water pump 503 is connected to one side of the cooling water tank 505 through a connecting pipe. The outlet of the cooling water pump 503 is connected to the bottom of the cooling cylinder 501 through a connecting pipe. The bottom of the cooling cylinder 501 is connected to one side of the cooling water tank 505 through a cooling water pipe 504.
[0062] Two drive mechanisms 6 are fixedly installed on the surface of the water outlet column 405. Each drive mechanism 6 includes a drive plate 601, which is fixedly installed on the surface of the water outlet column 405. Two drive balls 602 are symmetrically fixedly installed on the top of the drive plate 601.
[0063] Two packing balls 7 are symmetrically fixedly installed at the bottom of each of the two packing discs 304, and the four driving balls 602 are respectively adapted to and installed with the four packing balls 7.
[0064] Six scrapers 8 are fixedly installed at the bottom of the water outlet column 405, and six blades 9 are fixedly installed on the surface of the water outlet column 405. The six blades 9 are adapted to the air supply pipe 203. One side of the three-way valve 402 is connected to the clean water tank 10 through a connecting pipe.
[0065] The bottom of the bottom cover 303 is connected to an vent pipe 11, and the side of the treatment tank 301 is connected to a dosing pipe 13.
[0066] In actual use, the alkaline solution level inside the treatment tank 301 is lower than the height of the blade 9; a cooling component is installed inside the cooling water tank 505.
[0067] The working principle of the air pollution control device provided in this embodiment is as follows:
[0068] First, when the exhaust gas enters the inlet pipe 102, the cooling water pump 503 is activated to draw water from the cooling water tank 505. The cooling components inside the cooling water tank 505 cool the water, which is then pumped into the cooling cylinder 501 by the cooling water pump 503. After passing through three water flow baffles 502, the water circulates back into the cooling water tank 505 through the cooling water pipe 504, cools again, and is then reused. At this time, the cooled water comes into contact with the outer wall of the inlet pipe 102 to cool the roasting exhaust gas and prevent the temperature from being too high, which would affect subsequent adsorption and treatment.
[0069] Then, after the exhaust gas enters the treatment tank 301, the exhaust gas drives the blades 9 to rotate. The blades 9 drive the water column 405 to rotate. The water column 405 drives the scraper 8 to continuously stir the bottom circulating liquid to prevent sediment from forming at the bottom of the tank. At the same time, when the water column 405 rotates, it also drives the two drive plates 601 and the water spray pipe 406 to rotate. The rotation of the drive plate 601 drives the drive ball 602 to contact the packing ball 7, causing the two packing discs 304 to vibrate intermittently. At the same time, the water spray pipe 406 rotates and sprays. The vibration of the packing discs 304 causes the packing balls to rub against each other and dynamically loosen. Combined with the alkali flushing, the treatment capacity of the packing balls is continuously refreshed. At the same time, the vibration of the packing discs 304 can also prevent the packing balls from sticking together after long-term use.
[0070] Finally, after treatment is completed, the drain pipe 11 is manually opened to recover the circulating liquid. High-concentration alkaline solution is added through the dosing pipe 13 to improve the treatment capacity of the circulating liquid. The clean water inside the clean water tank 10 is switched through the three-way valve 402 to thoroughly clean the inside of the treatment tank 301 and then discharged through the drain pipe 11.
[0071] Compared with related technologies, the air pollution control device provided in this embodiment has the following beneficial effects:
[0072] Cooling water is drawn from the cooling water tank 505 by the cooling water pump 503 and sent to the cooling cylinder 501. After passing through three water flow baffles 502, the water undergoes sufficient heat exchange and is then recycled. This effectively reduces the temperature of the calcination exhaust gas, preventing high temperatures from adversely affecting subsequent activated carbon adsorption and alkali absorption processes. When the cooled exhaust gas enters the treatment tank 301, it drives the blades 9 to rotate, which in turn drives the water column 405, scraper 8, and sprinkler pipe 406 to rotate synchronously. The scraper 8 continuously agitates the circulating liquid at the bottom of the tank, effectively preventing solid particles from settling. The drive plate 601 intermittently touches the packing spheres 7, causing the two packing discs 304 to vibrate and promote the packing... The dynamic friction and loose arrangement between the balls, combined with the rotating spray of alkaline solution from the water pipe 406, ensures more comprehensive and efficient gas-liquid contact and reaction activity on the surface of the packing balls. This also prevents the packing balls from sticking together and caking due to long-term operation. After treatment, the circulating liquid is recovered through the drain pipe 11, and the high-concentration alkaline solution is conveniently replenished through the dosing pipe 13 to maintain the treatment capacity. The clean water tank 10 is switched to extract clean water through the three-way valve 402 to thoroughly clean the inside of the treatment tank 301. The cleaning wastewater is still discharged from the drain pipe 11. This achieves multiple functions of cooling, adsorption, reaction and self-cleaning in one integrated system, significantly improving treatment efficiency and long-term operational reliability.
