[0031] like Figures 1 to 5A safe and reliable exhaust gas washing device is shown, comprising a shell body 1 and a fan. The shell body 1 is made of sheet metal, has a relatively flat surface, and its inner wall is coated with an anti-corrosion coating, or the shell body 1 is made of plastic.

[0032] The inner cavity of the shell body 1 forms an air flow channel 3, and the two ends of the air flow channel 3 are respectively connected to the air inlet 4 and the exhaust port 5 on the shell body 1. The fan is fixed and arranged close to the exhaust port 5. The volute and impeller of the fan are made of polymer plastic, which effectively improves the acid and corrosion resistance of the fan, reduces costs and increases service life. Under the action of the fan, the exhaust gas enters through the air inlet 4 and is discharged from the exhaust port 5.

[0033] The air flow channel 3 is provided with a spray head 6 and a rectifying plate 7. A plurality of spray heads 6 are connected to a water source for spraying and washing the tail gas. The air flow channel 3 is provided with a plurality of transversely extending water pipes 14. Figure 3 As shown, the plurality of spray heads 6 are disposed on a plurality of water pipes 14 and have different outlet directions to improve the uniformity of spraying.

[0034] like Figure 4 As shown, the rectifying plate 7 includes a plurality of through holes for the exhaust gas to pass through, and the exhaust gas is rectified after passing through the through holes, and the plurality of rectifying plates 7 divide the air flow channel into a plurality of relatively independent chambers, and the chambers are used to store fillers 13 or filter materials. Figure 1 As shown, a packing 13 is provided in a chamber, and the packing 13 is used to increase the contact time and contact area between water vapor and exhaust gas. The packing 13 is such as Raschig rings, Pall rings, step rings, Interlocks packing, etc. The packing 13 is existing technology, and those skilled in the art can select it according to needs, which will not be described here.

[0035] like Figure 1 As shown, the air flow channel 3 includes an upstream channel 31 and a downstream channel 32. Two first valves 8 are respectively provided at both ends of the upstream channel 31. The two first valves 8 can control the upstream channel 31 to communicate with the downstream channel 32 or the outside.

[0036] Specifically, there are multiple air inlets 4, all of which are arranged on the side wall of the upstream passage 31 between the two first valves 8. The two first valves 8 have the same structure and include a valve plate 81. The valve plate 81 includes a shaft 82. The shaft 82 passes through the shell body 1 and is rotatably connected to the shell body 1. A bearing is sleeved at the rotation connection. The shaft 82 is driven to rotate, so that the first valve 8 can open or close the upstream passage 31. The linkage operating rod (not shown) is also included. The linkage operating rod is respectively connected to the two shafts 32 to realize the linkage of the two valve plates 81. Under normal working conditions, such as Figure 1 As shown, the two valve plates 81 control the upstream channel 31 and the downstream channel 32 to communicate with each other and to isolate them from the outside. Figure 5As shown, the linkage operating lever is operated, and the two valve plates 81 control the upstream channel 31 to communicate with the outside and isolate it from the downstream channel 32. This operation is efficient and can respond quickly. In order to avoid exhaust gas leakage, the upstream channel 31 is connected to other water washing equipment through the exhaust gas pipeline 9, and a second valve is provided on the exhaust gas pipeline 9 to facilitate automatic control. The linkage operating lever is a prior art, and those skilled in the art can select it according to their needs. It will not be repeated here. In other embodiments of the present invention, the linkage operating lever can also be replaced by a manual operating lever and an electric actuator.

[0037] like Figure 2 As shown, the inner wall of the upstream channel 31 also includes a limit assembly 11 arranged near the first valve 8, and the limit assembly 11 includes two limit strips arranged opposite to each other, and the two limit strips extend along the inner wall surface of the upstream channel 31, and when the valve plate 81 cuts off the upstream channel 31, the two limit strips can respectively abut against the top surface and the bottom surface of the valve plate 81 at the corresponding positions to limit the rotation of the valve plate 81 and seal the upstream channel 31. In addition, in order to avoid damaging the valve plate 81 and improve the sealing performance, rubber pads are also provided at the end surfaces of the two limit strips facing the valve plate 81 to further protect the valve plate 81 from bumps and improve the sealing performance.

[0038] It also includes a first plate 15, and multiple air inlets 4 are evenly distributed on the side wall of the upstream channel 31, and the air inlet 4 has an inclination angle toward the direction of the air flow. The first plate 15 is arranged one-to-one with the air inlet 4 and has an inclination angle. In this embodiment, the inclination angle of the first plate 14 is consistent with the inclination angle of the air inlet 4 to guide the air flow entering through the air inlet 4 to flow along the set air flow direction. At the same time, the exhaust gas entering through the air inlet 4 also first collides with the inner wall of the upstream channel 31, which is beneficial to reduce the exhaust gas flow rate and cause large particles therein to settle.

[0039] like Figure 1 As shown, it also includes a second plate 16, which is fixed on the inner wall of the downstream channel 32 and is inclined to partially cover the exhaust port 5. The exhaust gas mixed with water vapor collides with the second plate 16 and is discharged from the exhaust port 5. In this way, the exhaust gas flowing to the exhaust port 5 will first collide with the second plate 16, causing the mixed water vapor therein to condense and drip, thereby reducing the amount of water vapor discharged.

[0040] It also includes a water pump (not shown). The shell body 1 is connected to a water tank 12 downward. The inner cavity of the water tank 12 is connected to the upstream channel 31 and the downstream channel 32 to store spray water. The water inlet of the water pump is connected to the inner cavity of the water tank 12 through a filter to supply water to the sprinkler head. The filter is a prior art, and those skilled in the art can select it according to their needs. In order to facilitate the implementation of monitoring the pH value of the spray water in the water tank 12 to determine whether the spray water needs to be replaced, a pH sensor is also provided in the water tank 12. The pH sensor is used to monitor the pH value of the spray water and is electrically connected to an external controller. In addition, a feeding port is also provided on the shell body 1. The feeding port is closed under normal working conditions. When it is necessary to add a reagent to adjust the pH value of the spray water, the reagent can be added into the water tank 12 through the feeding port.

[0041] like Figure 1 As shown, a plurality of viewing windows are provided on the side walls of the shell body 1 and the water tank 12 . In this embodiment, the viewing windows of the storage cabinet of the shell body 1 are arranged corresponding to the positions of the water pipes 14 , so that the staff can conveniently check the spraying conditions in the shell body 1 .

[0042] The present invention is described above by way of examples, but the present invention is not limited to the above specific embodiments, and any changes or modifications based on the present invention belong to the scope of protection required by the present invention.
