The jackets of the above four sections are separated by a separator ring, which may be an O-ring.

[0020] A low-pressure steam pipeline is provided on the top of the low-pressure steam flash tank 10, and a steam ejector 9 for converting the low-pressure steam pressure into medium-pressure steam is connected to the low-pressure steam pipeline. The inlet of the steam ejector 9 is connected to the high-pressure steam pipeline 1, and the steam at the outlet of the steam ejector 9 is used for production needs. A first hot water delivery pipeline 11 communicating with the jacket of the hydrogen chloride synthesis section 16 is provided at the bottom of the low-pressure steam flash tank 10, and a first forced circulation pump 14 is installed on the first hot water delivery pipeline 11. A hot water reflux pipeline 6 communicating with the jacket of the sensible heat recovery section 20 is provided on one side of the low-pressure steam flash tank 10.
[0021] A medium-pressure steam pipeline for production needs is provided at the top of the medium-pressure steam flash tank 12, and a second hot water delivery pipeline 13 communicating with the jacket of the by-product medium-pressure steam section 19 is provided at the bottom of the medium-pressure steam flash tank 12. A second forced circulation pump 15 is installed on the second hot water delivery pipeline 13.
[0022] The air inlet at the bottom of the hydrogen chloride synthesis furnace is respectively connected to a hydrogen pipeline 3 and a chlorine pipeline 4 through a tee.
[0023] Graphite blocks 21 are installed in the upper section of the by-product medium-pressure steam section 19 , the sensible heat recovery section 20 , and the cooling section 22 .
[0024] A water supply pipeline 2 is connected to one side of the low-pressure steam flash tank 10 and the medium-pressure steam flash tank 12 .
[0025] The working process of the heat energy and steam recovery system of the hydrogen chloride synthesis furnace of the utility model is as follows:
[0026] Hydrogen 3 and chlorine 4 are burned in the synthesis section 16 of the hydrogen chloride synthesis furnace to produce hydrogen chloride gas. Since the heat here is mainly the heat radiation generated by the combustion, the hot water in the low-pressure flash tank 10 is transported to the jacket of the hydrogen chloride synthesis section 16 through the first forced circulation pump 14 through the first hot water delivery pipeline 11 to take away the heat radiated during the combustion. At the same time, the hot water is further transported to the sensible heat recovery section 20 through the connecting pipeline 17 to recover the sensible heat of the high-temperature hydrogen chloride after the by-product medium-pressure steam. At this time, the superheated water is transported to the low-pressure steam flash tank 10 through the hot water reflux pipeline for flash evaporation to recover the low-pressure steam. Since the low-pressure steam is rarely used in the production process, the negative pressure is generated by the high-pressure steam 1 after passing through the steam ejector 9, which is more conducive to the low-pressure flash tank flashing out more steam. At the same time, the low-pressure steam and the high-pressure steam are mixed to obtain medium-pressure steam. The medium-pressure steam has the same steam pressure as the by-product medium-pressure steam 19, and is combined for production needs.
[0027] The large amount of heat released by the byproduct medium-pressure steam section 19 during the combustion of hydrogen chloride is transported to the jacket of the combustion section 19 by the high-temperature hot water in the medium-pressure steam flash tank 12 through the second hot water delivery pipeline 13 and the second forced circulation pump 15 to take away the heat generated by the combustion. At the same time, the high-temperature hot water is heated to superheated high-temperature water and flashes in the medium-pressure steam flash tank 12 to obtain medium-pressure steam;
[0028] The heat generated by combustion is taken away by the high-temperature hot water on the furnace wall. Since the temperature of the hydrogen chloride gas at this time is as high as about 2000°C, after the high-temperature hydrogen chloride gas flows through the heat transfer enhancement turbulator 18, the high-temperature hydrogen chloride is compressed and flows upward along the furnace wall. Since the hydrogen chloride gas is compressed, its flow rate increases, so that the flow mode of hydrogen chloride in the furnace changes from laminar flow to turbulent flow, which greatly enhances the heat transfer efficiency;
[0029] After passing through the heat transfer enhanced turbulent device, the hydrogen chloride flows through the byproduct medium-pressure steam section graphite block 21. After the high-temperature hot water enters the graphite block 21, it is further heated to become high-temperature superheated water, and the hydrogen chloride gas is further cooled and enters the hydrogen chloride sensible heat recovery section 20. The hot water is further heated to obtain superheated water, and the hydrogen chloride gas is further cooled, thereby taking away more sensible heat of the hydrogen chloride gas and reducing the amount of circulating cooling water. At this time, the heat of the hydrogen chloride gas is relatively low, and the circulating water 5 and the circulating water return water 7 are cooled in the cooling section 22. The temperature of the hydrogen chloride gas after cooling is lower than 65°C.
[0030] The heat energy and steam recovery system of the hydrogen chloride synthesis furnace of the utility model effectively recovers heat by developing a four-stage synthesis furnace with a heat transfer enhanced turbulent device, and innovatively adopts a steam jet mixing method to mix steam of different pressures and transport it to downstream users together with the by-product medium-pressure steam. While greatly recovering heat energy, it reduces the temperature of hydrogen chloride gas in the cooling section of the synthesis furnace and saves circulating cooling water. Therefore, the heat energy and steam recovery system of the utility model not only greatly improves the recovery of heat energy, but also effectively reduces the temperature of HCL gas in the cooling section of the synthesis furnace, saving the amount of circulating cooling water.
[0031] The above description is only a preferred specific implementation manner of the present invention, but the protection scope of the present invention is not limited thereto. Any technician familiar with the technical field can make equivalent replacements or changes within the technical scope disclosed by the present invention according to the technical scheme and the utility model concept of the present invention, which should be covered by the protection scope of the present invention.
