Description

Technical Field

[0001] The utility model relates to the technical field of sludge drying machines, in particular to a medium-temperature zone type sludge drying machine. Background Art

[0002] During the sewage treatment process in the chemical, papermaking, municipal and mineral processing industries, a large amount of sludge will be generated, which needs to be further disposed harmlessly. In the process of disposal, in order to reduce the amount of sludge, reduce energy consumption and reduce secondary pollution, the sludge needs to be dried, which requires sludge drying equipment. There are many types of sludge drying equipment, the most common ones are paddle type, disc type, belt type, and various derivative styles; each type of drying equipment has its own advantages and disadvantages, and has its own applicable materials and working conditions. Among them, the belt dryer is widely used in the food, pharmaceutical, grain, wood, fruit and vegetable, and flower quick-drying industries because there is no direct contact wear during the material drying process, high efficiency, the material remains granular after drying, and the material cells remain intact.

[0003] The belt dryer is divided into low temperature and high temperature modes. The drying temperature of the low temperature mode is below 80℃. The advantages of the equipment are low operating cost and few mechanical failures. The disadvantage is that the equipment is expensive, which is twice the price of the high temperature dryer. Due to the high requirements of the condenser for environmental cleanliness, the low temperature dryer needs to be equipped with a bag filter dust removal device, which is easy to clog and requires frequent and regular replacement and treatment by manual labor. The working condition is poor; the operating principle of the equipment is that the drying air is circulated internally without external discharge, and no odor treatment device is required. It is only suitable for media that do not produce harmful gases, and is not suitable for sludge drying in the water treatment industry containing hydrogen sulfide. The drying temperature of the high temperature belt dryer is below 140℃. The overall structure is relatively simple, the structural strength is large, and it is resistant to high temperature. Theoretically, the failure rate is low and it is not easy to damage. It is suitable for heavier and large particles and block drying, and is applicable to the grain, wood, and mineral sand industries. The disadvantage is that its matching mud strip extruder cannot handle sludge containing longer fibers and plastic sheets, and is very easy to clog; due to high temperature working conditions, if the cleaning of the machine is not timely, the high temperature dried floc debris will catch fire, which will cause a serious fire and burn the equipment. Utility Model Content

[0011] Beneficial effects of the utility model:

[0012] The main body of the utility model dryer includes a low-temperature heating unit, a medium-temperature drying unit and a high-temperature evaporation unit.

Finally, it passes through the air waste heat recovery heat exchanger, and the temperature drops to about 50°C before being discharged to the subsequent waste gas treatment unit.

[0030] Specific implementation of the utility model:

[0031] The sludge is cut into strips by a sludge strip cutter, and the strip sludge is evenly spread on the mesh belt 2 from the material inlet 4, with a thickness of about 7-10 cm, without gaps, so as not to short-circuit the circulating air; after the mesh belt 2 is fully spread, it is divided into three units for drying, a low-temperature heating unit 11 (water content 70%, temperature about 30°C), a medium-temperature drying unit 12 (water content 70-50%, temperature about 100°C), and a high-temperature evaporation unit 13 (water content 50-35%, temperature about 120°C).

The hot air temperature drops to about 50°C, and the humidity also increases to the maximum. Finally, it is further cooled by the gas replacement device and discharged to the exhaust gas treatment device.
