Description

Technical Field

[0001] The utility model relates to the technical field of granulation, in particular to a rotary disc for sodium nitrate high-tower granulation. Background Art

[0002] At present, the granulation of sodium nitrate is generally carried out using a granulation tower. The principle is that the sodium nitrate raw material is heated to melt, and the liquid sodium nitrate is pumped to the injection device at the top of the granulation tower. The injection device sprays the liquid sodium nitrate to form droplets or mist droplets. The sprayed droplets fall from the inside of the high tower, and the external air enters from the bottom of the high tower and rises, and is discharged from the top of the tower. In this way, the sodium nitrate droplets will perform countercurrent heat exchange with the rising air during the falling process, and the droplets condense to form particles and fall to the bottom of the tower, and then are collected and packaged;

[0003] In the above process, some sodium nitrate droplets may be thrown onto the inner wall of the granulation tower before the outer layer solidifies. Therefore, our company has designed a granulation tower that can scrape off the attachments on the inner wall. However, the attachments after scraping are also sodium nitrate. Therefore, it is necessary to design a rotating disk arranged at the bottom of the granulation tower, which can conveniently recover the scraped sodium nitrate and discharge the scraped material and the prepared sodium nitrate particles separately.

[0047] A feeding pipe 433 is provided at the bottom of the second feeding port 432. The bottom opening of the feeding pipe 433 is located above the sieve plate 44.

[0049] A vibration motor 45 is disposed on the bottom surface of the sieve plate 44 , and a collection box is disposed below the sieve plate 44 .

[0050] The principle of the rotary disk for sodium nitrate high tower granulation provided by the present application is explained below in combination with the overall process of sodium nitrate granulation:

[0051] 1. The sodium nitrate crystals are transported to the molten salt tank 2 through the first hoist 1. The molten salt tank 2 heats the crystals to melt and remove moisture through electric heating. The heating temperature is 310°C. The molten salt tank 2 is equipped with an electric heater and a circulation pump 21. The function of the circulation pump 21 is to circulate the sodium nitrate liquid in the molten salt tank 2, so as to avoid local overheating of the sodium nitrate molten salt.

[0052] 2. The molten salt pump in the molten salt tank 2 transports the melted sodium nitrate liquid to the intermediate tank 33;

[0053] The melted sodium nitrate liquid in the middle tank flows by gravity into the rotating spray cup 331;

[0054] 3. Use the spray cup 311 to spray the molten sodium nitrate liquid into the granulation tower 3, and the exhaust fan 302 continues to work, so that the external air enters the tower through the air inlet pipe 32 and rises, forming a cooling airflow;

[0055] The high-temperature molten sodium nitrate liquid flows out through the numerous small holes on the wall of the high-speed rotating spray cup 311 to form numerous droplets. The particle size can be adjusted by controlling the rotation speed of the spray cup. The higher the speed, the smaller the particle size; the lower the speed, the larger the particle size.

[0056] As the droplets fall, they cool from bottom to top and exchange heat with the high-temperature liquid, first cooling the surface of the droplets into a hard shell;

[0057] The high-temperature air after heat exchange is returned to the upper part of the granulation tower 3 by the return fan 34, and mixed with the rising air from the lower part, so as to avoid the droplets from cooling down too fast, and effectively control the formation speed of the hard shell and avoid the occurrence of cracking.

[0058] As the particles fall in the tower, they are constantly in contact with the strong cold air at the bottom for heat exchange. The liquid phase inside the small particles gradually cools and shrinks, solidifying into a solid phase. The droplets and the cold air are in reverse heat exchange. The cold air goes from bottom to top, and the temperature is rising. The droplets go from top to bottom, and the temperature is falling.

[0059] The hot air after heat exchange enters the air filter 301 through the vent 36 at the narrow section of the tower top, and is extracted from the tower top by the exhaust fan 302 after being filtered.

[0060] 4. Since some of the droplets thrown out of the spray cup 311 may be thrown to the upper part of the inner wall of the granulation tower 3 before forming a sufficiently thick shell, if not treated, this part of the liquid will slowly cool down on the upper part of the inner wall of the granulation tower 3 to form a relatively dense film layer, which is not easy to recover the raw materials. Therefore, during the granulation process, a cold source is introduced into the interlayer 31 to cool down the inner wall of the granulation tower 3 corresponding to the interlayer 31, so that the sodium nitrate particles hanging on the wall are quickly cooled and cracked, which is easy to remove;

[0061] The scraping ring 35 is driven by the cylinder 351 to scrape it;

[0062] 5. Most of the cooled solid particles fall onto the disk 41 and the annular plate 434 of the high tower, the scraped material and a small amount of particles fall into the annular groove 43, and the particles falling onto the conical cap 48 are also guided to the disk 41;

[0063] The output shaft of the rotary motor drives the rotating rod 42, the inclined rod 49 and the scraper 431 to rotate;

[0064] The particles on the tray 41 are pushed and dropped onto the belt conveyor 47 through the first discharge port 411;

[0065] The scraped material in the scraper 431 falls onto the screen plate 44 through the second discharge port 432 and the discharge pipe 433, and the vibration motor 45 performs screening by vibration, and the sodium nitrate powder falls into the collection box, while the particles are transported to the belt conveyor 7;

[0066] 6. The belt conveyor 7 conveys the particles to the second elevator 5, and then to the cooling heat exchanger 6 for cooling. The cooled particles are screened by the screening machine 7, and the screened particles are conveyed to the silo 9 by the third elevator 8 and wait for packaging.
