DETAILED DESCRIPTION

[0024] The present invention is further described below in conjunction with the accompanying drawings and embodiments. It should be understood that these embodiments are only used to illustrate the present invention and are not used to limit the scope of the present invention.

[0025] It should be noted that all directional indications in the embodiments of the present invention (such as up, down, left, right, front, back...) are only used to explain the relative position relationship, movement status, etc. between the components under a certain specific posture (as shown in the accompanying drawings). If the specific posture changes, the directional indication will also change accordingly.

[0026] It should also be noted that when an element is referred to as being "fixed on" or "disposed on" another element, it may be directly on the other element or there may be an intermediate element at the same time. When an element is referred to as being "connected to" another element, it may be directly connected to the other element or there may be an intermediate element at the same time.

[0027] Example 1

[0028] like Figure 1-Figure 3 As shown, a potassium sulfate production device includes a connected batching reaction tank 1, a filter 2, a crystal growing device 3, a settling tank 4, a centrifuge 5, and a dryer 6. The feed port of the batching reaction tank 1 is connected to a first metering tank 7 and a second metering tank 8 through a pipeline and a valve, respectively. The gas outlet of the batching reaction tank 1 is connected to an alkali solution spray tower 10 and a water spray tower 11 through a condenser 9. The overflow port of the settling tank 4 and the liquid outlet of the centrifuge 5 are both connected to the first metering tank 7.

[0029] Sulfuric acid solution and potassium chloride are added to the batching reaction tank 1 through the first metering tank 7 and the second metering tank 8 respectively, and the reaction is carried out under certain conditions. The harmful waste gas generated in the reaction process is condensed by the condenser 9 and then enters the alkali solution spray tower 10 and the water spray tower 11 for absorption treatment respectively; the potassium sulfate solution after the reaction enters the crystal growing device 3 for cooling and crystallization treatment, and the crystallized liquid enters the settling tank 4 for sedimentation. The precipitate at the bottom of the settling tank 4 is deliquescence treated again by the centrifuge 5. Since the sulfuric acid solution is generally excessive, the supernatant in the settling tank 4 and the liquid after centrifugation by the centrifuge 5 contain sulfuric acid solution. This part of the solution enters the first metering tank 7 and is reused for preparing sulfuric acid solution to reduce the production cost of the product.

[0030] Furthermore, in this embodiment, a first stirring mechanism is provided in the batching reaction tank 1, and the first stirring mechanism includes a first stirring shaft 12 provided in the batching reaction tank 1 and a plurality of first stirring blades 13 provided on the first stirring shaft 12, and one end of the first stirring shaft 12 is connected to a first stirring motor 14 provided on the top of the batching reaction tank 1.

[0031] Furthermore, in this embodiment, a filter plate 15 is provided in the filter 2, the filter plate 15 is tilted, and the lower end of the filter plate 15 extends to the slag discharge port of the filter 2; further, a vibration motor 16 is provided at the bottom of the filter plate 15, and a protective cover 17 is provided outside the vibration motor 16. Under the action of the vibration motor 16, the filter residue can be discharged through the slag discharge port in time to prevent it from accumulating on the surface of the filter plate 15 and affecting the filtering efficiency.

[0032] Furthermore, in this embodiment, the alkali solution spray tower 10 and the water spray tower 11 are provided with multiple layers of porous plates 18, and spray mechanisms 19 are provided between the multiple layers of porous plates 18. The above arrangement greatly improves the exhaust gas absorption efficiency.

[0033] Further, in this embodiment, the inner wall of the settling tank 4 is provided with staggered and downwardly inclined baffle plates 20. Under the action of the baffle plates 20, the crystals and liquid in the crystallization liquid are separated, and the settling efficiency is improved.

[0034] Furthermore, in this embodiment, a second stirring mechanism is provided in the crystal growing vessel 3, and the second stirring mechanism includes a second stirring motor 21 arranged on the top of the crystal growing vessel 3 and a second stirring shaft 22 connected to the second stirring motor 21, and a plurality of second stirring blades 23 are provided on the second stirring shaft 22.

[0035] Furthermore, a third stirring mechanism is provided at the bottom of the crystal-growing vessel 3, and the third stirring mechanism includes a third stirring shaft 25 vertically arranged with the second stirring shaft 22 and a plurality of third stirring blades 26 obliquely arranged on the third stirring shaft 25, and the third stirring shaft 25 is connected to a third stirring motor 24 arranged on the side wall of the crystal-growing vessel 3; a pit 27 is provided at the end of the third stirring blade 26.
