Description
Technical Field
[0001] The utility model relates to the technical field of ammonia condensation recovery, in particular to a liquid level control device for an ammonia condensation recovery process. Background Art
[0002] Saturated vapor pressure is the static gas pressure formed when a gas evaporates under a certain pressure at a certain temperature. Gases have different saturated vapor pressures at different temperatures. When the gas reaches the set temperature, their vaporization will change, and the degree of evaporation of the gas will also change greatly. The temperature of ammonia affects its saturated vapor pressure, which can be used to measure the evaporation of the gas. In most cases, the lower the saturated vapor pressure of ammonia, the lower the degree of evaporation of the gas. Therefore, if the temperature of ammonia is increased, the saturated vapor pressure will also increase.
[0003] The prior art discloses a kind of alkaline etching ammonia condensation recycling device of CN213172592U, including a recovery tower, an air inlet pipe is provided in the middle part of the left end of the recovery tower, a fan is provided at the inner top of the recovery tower, a driving pump is provided at the bottom of the recovery tower, an output pipe is provided at the output end of the driving pump, a circulation channel is provided at the inner upper part of the recovery tower, a plurality of atomizing nozzles are evenly provided along the circumference of the inner side of the circulation channel, a U-shaped tube is provided at the top of the recovery tower, and a drying filter element is detachably connected in the U-shaped tube. By providing a circulation channel and an atomizing nozzle, ammonia-containing waste gas flows upward through the action of a fan after entering the recovery tower from the air inlet pipe, and the atomizing nozzle sprays high-pressure atomized water, and the atomized water contacts the ammonia-containing waste gas, and the atomized water filters and adsorbs other impurities in the ammonia-containing waste gas, and cooperates with the cotton drying filter element in the U-shaped tube to absorb and filter the water vapor in the gas, so that the ammonia reaches the use standard.
[0004] The ammonia refrigeration system of Anyang Zhongying Fertilizer Co., Ltd. is one of the most important processes in the synthetic ammonia production process. Its function is to further reduce the temperature of the synthesis gas coming out of the ammonia synthesis tower by exchanging the liquid ammonia from the ammonia compressor storage tank through the shell side of the first and second ammonia coolers and the synthesis gas in the tube side. When the ammonia refrigeration system is operating normally, the liquid level of the first and second ammonia coolers should be strictly controlled to avoid the phenomenon of gas carrying liquid in the gas phase system of the ammonia cooler due to excessive liquid level. As a device for compressing gas, once the ammonia compressor carries liquid, it will cause damage to the compressor impeller and cause the ammonia compressor to jump. Utility Model Content
