Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This invention relates to the fields of environmental protection and resource recycling technology, and in particular to a physical field-enhanced waste oil pretreatment device and method. Background Technology
[0002] Waste oil is one of the main raw materials for biofuels, but it has high acid value, many impurities, and complex composition. In particular, waste oil usually contains water, salt, and solid impurities. High phosphorus and high chlorine content can be toxic to hydrogenation catalysts, necessitating pretreatment to meet the feed conditions for hydrogenation and ensure long-term stable operation of the unit. Chinese patent CN 103571630 A discloses a pretreatment process for biodiesel production. This process involves adding acid and water, heating and mixing, allowing it to stand, precipitate, and separate the liquids, extracting the upper layer of oil, filtering to remove residue, adding concentrated acid and heating to carbonize and polymerize impurities, which then precipitate and separate. The acidified oil is then washed, dehydrated, and decolorized to obtain refined waste oil. While this method produces waste oil with low water and impurity content and uniform quality, it has poor metal ion removal efficiency, significantly shortening the catalyst life in the subsequent hydrogenation reaction. Furthermore, due to the complexity of the waste oil, precise control of the three-phase separation during the acidification, sedimentation, and separation steps is difficult, affecting subsequent extraction and processing efficiency. Chinese patent CN116355690 A discloses a pretreatment process for biodiesel feedstock. This process involves mixing acidified oil and waste animal and vegetable oils from the catering industry in different proportions according to pre-tested indicators. The mixture then undergoes preheating, a first water wash, a first centrifugation, a second water wash, a second centrifugation, alkali refining, a third centrifugation, a third water wash, a fourth centrifugation, a fourth water wash, a fifth centrifugation, drying, decolorization, filtration, deodorization, and cooling to obtain the finished oil. This method can effectively reduce the nitrogen, phosphorus, sulfur, and heavy metal content in waste oils (by removing impurities). However, the process requires four water washes and five centrifugations, making the process cumbersome, complex, and energy-intensive, increasing production costs and the difficulty of equipment maintenance and management. Furthermore, the centrifugation process generates a significant amount of wastewater, increasing the burden on wastewater treatment.
[0003] Therefore, in order to improve the removal rate and efficiency of impurities such as metal ions in waste oils, and to pretreat oils economically and efficiently so that they meet the requirements for subsequent hydrogenation reactions to produce biodiesel, there is an urgent need for an efficient and convenient waste oil pretreatment method.

[0081] Example 2
[0082] Embodiment 2 of the present invention provides a physical field-enhanced waste oil pretreatment method, comprising using any of the physical field-enhanced waste oil pretreatment devices described in Embodiment 1 to pretreat the input waste oil. For details, see... Figure 2 As shown, it includes the following steps:
[0083] Step S21: Input waste oil into the solid-liquid separator through the waste oil input device, so that the organic phase separated by the solid-liquid separator enters the ultragravity dynamic membrane reactor.
[0084] Waste oil enters the solid-liquid separator 3 from the waste oil input device 1 through the first flow control valve 2 at a flow rate of 50-100 g / min for filtration. The filtered solid impurities are discharged to the solid collection device 4 through the solid outlet, and the filtered organic phase flows into the ultragravity dynamic membrane reactor 11.
[0085] Step S22: Input demulsifier into the hypergravity dynamic membrane reactor through the demulsifier input device, input purified water into the hypergravity dynamic membrane reactor through the purified water input device, and input demetallizer into the hypergravity dynamic membrane reactor through the demetallizer input device.
[0086] Demulsifier is introduced into the hypergravity dynamic membrane reactor 11 through demulsifier input device 5 and second flow control valve 6 at a flow rate of 0.5-1 g / min; purified water is introduced into the hypergravity dynamic membrane reactor 11 through purified water input device 7 and third flow control valve 8 at a flow rate of 0.5-1 g / min; and demetallizing agent is introduced into the hypergravity dynamic membrane reactor 11 through demetallizing agent input device 9 and fourth flow control valve 10 at a flow rate of 0.8-5 g / min.
[0087] Furthermore, the demetallizing agent can be a mixture of phosphoric acid, citric acid, and oxalic acid. The concentration of phosphoric acid is 65%–90%, the concentration of citric acid is 30%–60%, and the concentration of oxalic acid is 40%–60%.
[0088] The material reacts fully in the hypergravity dynamic membrane reactor 11. The heat exchange liquid enters the jacket of the hypergravity dynamic membrane reactor 11 through the first heat exchange liquid inlet 12 and exchanges heat with the material entering the hypergravity dynamic membrane reactor 11. After heat exchange, the heat exchange liquid is discharged from the first heat exchange liquid outlet 13. The first temperature gauge 14 and the first pressure gauge 15 monitor the temperature and pressure in the hypergravity dynamic membrane reactor 11, respectively. The reaction products enter the coupling reactor 18.
[0089] Step S23: Sodium hydroxide solution is introduced into the coupling reactor through the sodium hydroxide solution input device, so that the organic phase in the coupling reactor reacts under the coupling effect of sodium hydroxide solution and physical field.
[0090] A physical field, specifically an electric field, is applied outside the coupling reactor 18. The removal of metal ions is enhanced by the physical field coupling using a demetallizing agent. Simultaneously, sodium hydroxide solution is introduced into the coupling reactor 18 via the sodium hydroxide solution inlet device 16 and the seventh flow control valve 17. A pH transmitter 19 transmits the pH value within the coupling reactor 18 to the seventh flow control valve 17.

[0093] Hydrogen peroxide is introduced into the dynamic tubular reactor 25 through the hydrogen peroxide input device 22 and the sixth flow control valve 23 at a flow rate of 0.2 to 0.8 g / min. Alternatively, 50% hydrogen peroxide can be introduced.
[0094] Simultaneously, through the demetallizing agent input device 9 and the fifth flow control valve 24, a demetallizing agent is input into the dynamic tubular reactor 25 at a flow rate of 2-5 g / min to enhance the removal of metal ions.
[0095] The material reacts fully in the dynamic tubular reactor 25. The heat exchange liquid enters the jacket of the dynamic tubular reactor 25 through the second heat exchange liquid inlet 31 and exchanges heat with the material entering the dynamic tubular reactor 25. After heat exchange, the heat exchange liquid is discharged from the second heat exchange liquid outlet 32. The second temperature gauge 26 and the second pressure gauge 27 monitor the temperature and pressure in the dynamic tubular reactor 25, respectively. The reaction product enters the second centrifugal separator 28.
[0096] Step S25: Obtain the pretreated organic phase through a second centrifuge.

[0110] 100 g / min of raw oil, 1 g / min of demulsifier, 1 g / min of purified water, and 10 g / min of demetallizing agent (a mixture of 90% phosphoric acid, 60% citric acid, and 60% oxalic acid) were introduced into a high-gravity dynamic membrane reactor for mixing and reaction. The temperature was maintained at 85℃, and the residence time was 10 minutes. The product flowing out of the reactor outlet was then placed in a coupled reactor where the pH was adjusted to 5-6, and the residence time was 15 minutes. Under the enhancement of the physical field, further removal of metal ions was achieved. Subsequently, centrifugation was performed at 10,000 rpm for 5 minutes. After centrifugation, the product was introduced into a dynamic tubular reactor, and the above demetallizing agent was introduced at 8 g / min, and 50% hydrogen peroxide was introduced at 1 g / min. After a residence time of 10 minutes at 85℃, the reactor was centrifuged at 10,000 rpm for 5 minutes. The organic phase was collected for analysis, and the metal ion removal rate was 91.2%.
