[0023] Embodiment 1:

[0024] Reference Figure 1-5A multi-stage membrane separation technology is applied to an air nitrogen purification device, comprising: a frame 1, characterized in that a pretreatment box 2 is fixed on the upper side of the frame 1, an air storage tank 3 and a nitrogen recovery tank 4 are sequentially arranged on one side of the pretreatment box 2, a plurality of graded treatment tanks 5 are arranged between the air storage tank 3 and the nitrogen recovery tank 4, the output end of the pretreatment box 2 is connected with the bottom of the air storage tank 3 through a conduit 10, an air suction pump 11 is fixed on the conduit 10, the output end of the air storage tank 3 is connected with the bottom of the graded treatment tank 5 through a conduit 2 12, an air suction pump 2 13 is fixed on the conduit 2 12, the two graded treatment tanks 5 are connected through a conduit 3 14, a gas booster pump 15 is fixed on the conduit 3 14, the graded treatment tank 5 and the nitrogen recovery tank 4 are connected through a conduit 4 16, an air suction pump 4 17 is fixed on the conduit 4 16, and a constant temperature device 6 and a pressure gauge 7 are respectively installed and fixed on the inner and outer sides of the graded treatment tank 5.

[0025] like Figure 4 As shown, a box body 21 is provided on the pretreatment box 2, and the lower side of the box body 21 is fixedly connected to the top of the frame 1. An induced draft fan 22 is fixedly installed on one side of the input end of the box body 21. A filter plate 23 and a dehumidification plate 24 are sequentially arranged in the induced draft fan 22 along the air flow direction.

[0026] like Figure 4 As shown, the filter plate 23 and the dehumidification plate 24 are both embedded and fixed in the slots 25 in the box body 21. The filter plate 23 is used to filter dust and particulate matter in the air, and the dehumidification plate 24 is filled with calcium oxide.

[0027] Embodiment 2:

[0028] The difference between this embodiment and embodiment 1 is that:

[0029] like Figure 5 As shown, the classification treatment tank 5 includes an integrally formed outer shell 51 and an inner liner 52. The inner liner 52 is located in the outer shell 51. A separation membrane 53 is fixed to the inner side of the inner liner 52 in the horizontal direction. The pressure gauge 7 is connected to the inner side of the inner liner 52 through a connecting pipe.

[0030] like Figure 5 As shown, the pore sizes of the separation membranes 53 in the plurality of graded treatment tanks 5 between the pretreatment box 2 and the nitrogen recovery tank 4 are gradually reduced, so as to achieve step-by-step purification of the air.

[0031] like Figure 2 , Figure 5As shown, the constant temperature device 6 is provided with a liquid storage tank 61 and a coil 65. The upper side of the liquid storage tank 61 is connected to the input end of the coil 65 through an injection pipe 62, and the output end of the coil 65 is connected to the liquid storage tank 61 through a discharge pipe 64. A liquid pump 63 is fixedly installed on the injection pipe 62, and the coil 65 is spirally fixed in the closed area composed of the outer shell 51 and the inner tank 52.

[0032] like Figure 1 As shown, an external discharge port 8 is preset on the upper side of the inner liner 52 and the air storage tank 3 and the nitrogen recovery tank 4, and a sealing cover is fixed on the external discharge port 8.

[0033] Working principle: When the utility model is in working state, the induced draft fan 22 on the pretreatment box 2 is started to absorb external air into the box body 21, and the dust and particulate matter in the air can be filtered and removed through the filter plate 23. Then, when the filtered air passes through the dehumidification plate 24, the calcium oxide on the dehumidification plate 24 can react and absorb the water vapor in the air with part of the carbon dioxide gas. It should be noted that since the filter plate 23 and the dehumidification plate 24 are embedded in the preset card slot 25 in the box body 21, they are of detachable design, which facilitates the operator to clean and replace the filter plate 23 and the dehumidification plate 24 in time; starting the suction pump 11 can pump the filtered gas at the tail of the pretreatment box 2 into the air storage tank 3 through the conduit 10, and starting the suction pump 13 The air in the air storage tank 3 can be pumped into the classification treatment tank 5 through the conduit 2 12. When the air passes through the separation membrane 53 in the classification treatment tank 5, due to the different molecular diameters of different gases in the air, there are differences in solubility and diffusion coefficient in the separation membrane 53. Oxygen, carbon monoxide, carbon dioxide, water vapor and the like with smaller molecular diameters in the air quickly pass through the separation membrane 53 upward, while nitrogen with larger molecular diameters will be retained due to its low permeability, so that the nitrogen after extraction is retained at the bottom of the inner tank 52. Since the pore sizes of the separation membranes 53 in the multiple classification treatment tanks 5 are gradually reduced, the purification rate of nitrogen can be made higher and higher. Finally, the suction pump 4 17 is started to collect the finally purified nitrogen into the nitrogen recovery tank 4 through the conduit 4 16;

[0034] The gas booster pump 15 and the pressure gauge 7 provided between the multiple grading treatment tanks 5 can be used to adjust the working pressure between the grading treatment tanks 5 at each level during the nitrogen purification process. When the working pressure increases, the concentration difference of the gas molecules on both sides of the separation membrane 53 increases, so that the gas molecules have a higher driving force to pass through the membrane pores, which helps to increase the amount of nitrogen permeation in the membrane and improve the purification efficiency; on the contrary, reducing the working pressure can reduce the resistance of the gas molecules passing through the membrane pores, which is conducive to extending the service life of the separation membrane 53. At the same time, at a lower working pressure, the rate at which oxygen molecules pass through the membrane pores will also be reduced accordingly, thereby improving the purity of the nitrogen;

[0035] Starting the liquid pump 63 on the thermostatic device 6 can inject the thermostatic liquid in the liquid storage box 61 into the coil 65 through the injection pipe 62. The coil 65 has a spiral structure, which can ensure that the inner tank 52 is in a constant temperature state. Under a higher constant temperature state, the thermal motion speed of the gas molecules is accelerated, making it easier for the gas molecules to pass through the membrane pores, which helps to increase the penetration of nitrogen in the membrane and improve the purification efficiency. However, too high a temperature may cause thermal expansion or denaturation of the membrane material, affecting the separation performance of the membrane; on the contrary, at a lower temperature, the thermal motion speed of the gas molecules slows down, and the rate at which oxygen molecules pass through the membrane pores is reduced, which helps to improve the purity of the nitrogen. At the same time, low temperature can also reduce the physical and chemical changes of the membrane material and maintain the stability of the membrane; in summary, by precisely controlling the working pressure and temperature, the nitrogen purification efficiency and purity can be maximized while ensuring the stability and reliability of the device.
