Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] The utility model belongs to the technical field of solid-liquid separation equipment for preparing precious metal powder materials, and particularly relates to a liquid-sealed protective solid-liquid separator. Background Art
[0002] Raney nickel is a solid heterogeneous catalyst composed of fine grains of nickel-aluminum alloy with a porous structure. It was first used as a catalyst by American engineer Maury Raney in the hydrogenation process of vegetable oil. The high catalytic activity of Raney nickel comes from the catalytic properties of nickel itself and its porous structure, which is derived from the removal of aluminum from the nickel-aluminum alloy with a concentrated sodium hydroxide solution. This process is called leaching. Since the leaching reaction brings about the activity of the catalyst, and the hydrogen produced is stored in the catalyst, it is also called activation. During the activation process, due to the gradual increase in its surface area and the continuous adsorption of hydrogen produced by the leaching reaction, the Raney nickel formed after activation has moderate flammability. Therefore, the reaction in which Raney nickel participates should be handled in an inert gas or an oxygen-free environment under liquid. After activation, the resulting catalyst should be washed with distilled water at room temperature in order to remove any residual sodium aluminate. Deoxygenated water is the first choice for storing Raney nickel because it can prevent the oxidation of Raney nickel and reduce its combustion risk. Therefore, the Raney nickel usually supplied is a 50% muddy substance mixed in water, which cannot be exposed to the air. The muddy substance is put into a reagent bottle and then put into a packaging box, which is filled with chemically stable vermiculite for transportation. Therefore, how to achieve solid-liquid separation in an anaerobic environment during the chemical synthesis of Raney nickel is an urgent problem to be solved in industrial production. Summary of the invention
[0003] In order to overcome the above problems, the utility model provides a liquid-sealed protective solid-liquid separator to ensure that Raney nickel can be safely and efficiently cleaned with deionized water while achieving solid-liquid separation and valuable material recovery, thereby ensuring its anaerobic safety.

[0037] Working process of this utility model:
[0038] A certain level of liquid is contained in the aggregate cone 7 to ensure that the solids entering the aggregate cone 7 after filtration are always in the liquid;
[0039] The negative pressure liquid extraction valve 321 on the liquid outlet pipeline 32 of the stepped material storage body 3 is opened, and the negative pressure starts to work, so that the basket filter body 4 is in a negative pressure state to achieve negative pressure filtration; the feed switch valve 313 is opened, and the liquid extraction head 311 of the feed pipeline 31 extracts the reaction liquid in the leaching device, and the fluid containing the easily oxidized catalyst enters the stepped material storage body 3 through the flow sensor 312 and the feed switch valve 313, and then passes through the upper sealing flange 41, the guide body 42, the filter body 43, and the lower sealing flange 44 of the basket filter body 4 in sequence. This process is a solid-liquid separation process. A part of the filtered liquid is discharged through the negative pressure liquid extraction valve 321 on the liquid outlet pipeline 32 through the action of the guide body 42. After the entire fluid enters, the solid materials such as Raney nickel and other easily oxidized catalyst solids contained are intercepted and continuously fall into the aggregate cone 7. Another part of the filtered liquid passes through the filter body 43 and enters the aggregate cone 7, and then enters the negative pressure storage barrel 8 through the aggregate cone 7;
[0040] When the flow rate of the flow sensor 312 on the feed pipeline 31 drops sharply to near zero, the feed switch valve 313 is closed; since the liquid outlet pipeline 32 is placed at the height of the guide body 42 of the basket filter body 4, the liquid level control can be effectively achieved to prevent the easily oxidized catalyst from being exposed to the air.
[0041] Open the negative pressure valve 812 of the negative pressure storage barrel 8 to start pumping negative pressure, then open the discharge valve 71 at the bottom of the aggregate cone 7 and the storage valve 811 of the negative pressure storage barrel 8, so that the easily oxidized catalyst containing a certain amount of liquid in the aggregate cone 7 enters the negative pressure storage barrel 8, close the negative pressure liquid extraction valve 321 after the discharge, open the positive pressure flushing valve 322 connected to the deionized water source, and flush the basket filter 4 with deionized water, so that the residual material in the filter 43 is flushed into the aggregate cone 7 for recovery, and the flushing liquid enters the negative pressure storage barrel 8 through the aggregate cone 7 for collection; close the positive pressure flushing valve 322, the storage valve 811 and the negative pressure valve 812, and replace the negative pressure storage barrel 8. During the solid-liquid separation process, if the pressure sensor 11 shows that the pressure rises from negative pressure to zero pressure, consider replacing the filter 43 of the basket filter 4.
