[0002] Hydroxypropyl methylcellulose (HPMC) is a water-soluble polymer commonly used in the preparation of various coatings, building materials, medicines and foods. The production of HPMC is usually carried out through the following steps:

[0003] Methylation: react the cellulose raw material with a methylating agent such as methyl iodide so that the hydroxyl groups on the cellulose are replaced by methyl groups to obtain methyl cellulose; hydroxypropylation: react methyl cellulose with a hydroxypropylating agent such as chloropropanol so that the hydroxyl groups on the methyl cellulose are replaced by hydroxypropyl groups to obtain hydroxypropyl methyl cellulose; refine and dry, package and store.

In this utility model, the feed pipe is connected with the filter pipe, and the wastewater enters the device from the feed pipe. The two filter flanges are fixed by six bolts. The filter nets in the two filter flanges filter the wastewater and leave the filtered residue inside the filter pipe, thereby achieving filtration.

[0040] The following will be combined with the drawings in the embodiments of the utility model to clearly and completely describe the technical solutions in the embodiments of the utility model. Obviously, the described embodiments are only part of the embodiments of the utility model, not all of the embodiments. Based on the embodiments of the utility model, all other embodiments obtained by those skilled in the art without creative work are within the scope of protection of the utility model.

[0041] See also Figures 1 to 6 , the utility model provides embodiments:

[0042] like Figure 1 As shown, an organic solvent recovery device for hydroxypropyl methylcellulose production includes a recovery box 1 for recovering the organic solvent, and a liquid inlet connecting pipe 2 is fixedly connected to the top surface of the recovery box 1.

[0043] Among them, the liquid inlet connecting pipe 2 can be directly installed with a container for collecting organic solvents through the connecting pipe, or a funnel 3 can be fixed on the top of the liquid inlet connecting pipe 2 by screws, and the organic solvent to be filtered and treated can be directly poured into it through the funnel 3 for filtering and treatment through the recovery box 1.

[0044] like Figures 2-3 As shown, a guide assembly 7 is fixedly connected to the top surface of the liquid inlet connecting pipe 2 inside the recovery box 1, and the guide assembly 7 includes a guide pipe 71 and a guide bin 72. The top of the guide pipe 71 is connected to the liquid inlet connecting pipe 2, and the bottom end of the guide pipe 71 is integrally formed with the top surface of the guide bin 72, and the insides are connected;

[0045] The interior of the guide bin 72 is integrally formed with a first partition 73 and a second partition 76. The first partition 73 is arranged along the edge of the inner cavity of the guide bin 72, and a first guide groove 74 for the flow of organic solvent is formed between the guide bin 72 and the first partition 73. A plurality of second partitions 76 are provided, and the top ends of the plurality of second partitions 76 are fixedly connected to the bottom surface of the first partition 73. A plurality of second guide grooves 77 are formed between the first partition 73 and the plurality of second partitions 76. The first partition 73 located above the plurality of second guide grooves 77 is provided with a guide hole 75.

[0046] The guide tube 71 has a circular ring structure at the top and a flat mouth at the bottom, and the guide chamber 72 has a trapezoidal structure, through which the organic solvent can be guided and processed to adjust the flow rate of the organic solvent to prevent incomplete filtration due to excessive flow rate.

[0047] In order to be able to uniformly guide the organic solvent to be filtered to prevent concentrated filtration on the filter component 8, the organic solvent enters the guide bin 72 through the guide pipe 71, flows to both sides along the first guide groove 74 on both sides of the first partition 73, and in the process of flowing, enters the second guide groove 77 through the guide hole 75, so that the organic solvent can be diverted to avoid concentration on the filter component 8.

[0048] like Figures 4-5 As shown, a filter assembly 8 is installed on the inner middle side wall of the recovery box 1, and the filter assembly 8 is arranged in a transversely inclined manner inside the recovery box 1;

[0049] like Figure 5As shown, the filter assembly 8 includes a fixed frame 81, a filter screen 82, a first mounting block 83, a collecting groove 84 and a limiting plate 85. The filter screen 82 is installed inside the fixed frame 81. The first mounting blocks 83 are respectively welded to the side walls on both sides of the fixed frame 81. The inner side walls of the recovery box 1 are respectively welded with second mounting blocks 10. The first mounting blocks 83 are fixedly installed on the second mounting blocks 10 by screws. The fixed frame 81 is arranged in a transversely inclined manner in the inner middle layer of the recovery box 1. A collecting groove 84 for collecting waste is provided on the surface of the lower side of the fixed frame 81, and a limiting plate 85 is fixedly connected to one side of the collecting groove 84.

[0050] In order to filter, collect and process the waste in the organic solvent, the fixed frame 81 is arranged in a horizontally inclined manner in the inner middle layer of the recovery box 1, so that the organic solvent flows and is filtered while diagonally downward along the inclined direction of the fixed frame 81 on the surface of the filter 82. In this process, the waste filtered by the filter 82 is accumulated and affected by gravity, and slides into the collection tank 84 to be collected, so that the filtered waste can be collected and processed.

[0051] In order to facilitate the removal of the waste in the collecting tank 84 from the interior of the recycling box 1, Figure 5 As shown, one side of the filter assembly 8 is slidably connected to the collection assembly 5, and the side wall of the recovery box 1 is provided with a waste outlet 4, and the interior of the waste outlet 4 is slidably connected to the collection assembly 5:

[0052] The collecting assembly 5 includes a collecting bin 51, a side panel 52 and a pull rod 53. The collecting trough 84 and the collecting bin 51 are both semi-tubular. The side panels 52 are respectively welded to the side walls on both sides of the collecting bin 51. The collecting bin 51 is slidably connected in the collecting trough 84. The side wall of one of the side panels 52 is fixedly connected to one end of the pull rod 53. The pull rod 53 passes through the waste outlet 4 and extends to the outside of the recycling box 1.

[0053] The waste entering the collecting trough 84 falls into the collecting bin 51. When the waste in the collecting bin 51 needs to be taken out from the inside of the recycling box 1, the pulling rod 53 is pulled to slide the collecting bin 51 in the collecting trough 84 and pulled out from the waste outlet 4. After the waste in the collecting bin 51 is cleaned, it is inserted into the collecting trough 84 again so that it can be reused.

[0054] like Figure 6 As shown, a recovery component 9 for discharging the filtered organic solvent is fixedly connected to the lower layer of the recovery box 1 .

[0055] The recovery assembly 9 includes a converging plate 91 and a drainage groove 92. The converging plate 91 is fixedly connected to the inner lower layer of the recovery box 1 in a "V" shape. The drainage groove 92 is provided at the bottom of the converging plate 91. The side wall of the recovery box 1 is provided with a liquid outlet hopper 6. One end of the liquid outlet hopper 6 extends to the bottom of the drainage groove 92. The converging plate 91 is arranged in a longitudinally inclined manner in the inner lower layer of the recovery box 1.

[0056] Since one side of the converging plate 91 is higher than the other side, the organic solvent filtered by the filter assembly 8 can be gathered into the drainage groove 92 along the converging plate 91, flow from the high side to the low side of the drainage groove 92, and finally discharged from the recovery box 1 through the liquid outlet hopper 6.

[0057] In this way, the organic solvent containing waste is subjected to waste filtration treatment, thereby providing convenience for subsequent distillation.

[0058] Although the embodiments of the present invention have been shown and described, it will be appreciated by those skilled in the art that various changes, modifications, substitutions and variations may be made to the embodiments without departing from the principles and spirit of the present invention, and that the scope of the present invention is defined by the appended claims and their equivalents.
