Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] The utility model relates to the technical field of boron chemical industry, in particular to a device for improving recovery rate. Background Art
[0002] The wet boron concentrate from the boron filtration workshop is conveyed by a belt and enters the calcining furnace in the calcining workshop. The wet boron concentrate is re-burned and heated by the gas generated by the gas furnace at 1400°C. The flue gas at about 300°C after re-burning and desulfurization is directly discharged without effective utilization of the heat. The calcined cooked boron powder is transported to the batching room to add soda ash and mother liquor for batching. After the batching is completed, the slurry can be transported to the carbonization reactor for carbonization reaction. The lime kiln workshop calcines coal particles and limestone to produce white ash and kiln gas. The kiln gas is compressed by the washing and filtering air compressor to make the CO2 concentration reach 37% for carbonization reaction. The boiler workshop uses bituminous coal to heat the return water of the tailings pond to produce saturated steam for heating the carbonization reaction. The slurry is introduced into the kiln gas at a certain temperature and pressure to carry out carbonization reaction in the high-pressure reactor. After the carbonization reaction is completed, the slurry is filtered through a plate and frame filter press in a slurry tank. This process uses two steps of washing. First, the filter cake is rinsed with low-grade water for the first time, and then the 85°C hot water generated by directly heating the 20°C return water with saturated steam from the boiler is used for the second rinse to fully recover the boron components in the slag. After filtration, the slag is directly transported to the boron mud tailings pond, and the mixed stock liquid is then controlled and filtered by a small plate and frame filter press to form a clear stock liquid. At this time, the temperature of the clear stock liquid is about 80°C. The clear stock liquid is pumped into the crystallization tank for cooling and crystallization. The crystallization tank is cooled by coil water. The coil water is the return water from the tailings pond. The incoming water temperature is 18°C and the flow rate is 300m 3 / h. The maximum temperature of the tailings pond return water after heat exchange with the crystallization liquid is 45℃, and it is directly discharged to the ore dressing plant. The temperature of the crystallization liquid after cooling is 20℃, and then it enters the centrifuge and the mother liquor produced by centrifugation is re-transported to the batching room for batching, and finally produces 95% pure borax decahydrate. The defects of this scheme are as follows:
[0003] 1. The slag after the first filtration still contains soluble boron, and the existing technology directly transports it to the boron mud tailings pond, so the recovery rate of boron is low;
[0004] 2. The heat of the flue gas at about 300°C after calcination and desulfurization is not fully utilized and is directly discharged, resulting in energy loss;
[0005] 3. The 85°C hot water required for washing the plate and frame filter press is obtained by directly heating the 20°C tailings pond return water with boiler steam. This solution results in a large steam consumption, increased coal consumption, and increased costs;
[0006] 4. The temperature of the slurry after the carbonization reaction reaches 120°C. The heat in the slurry is not recovered again, and the slurry is directly filtered through a plate and frame filter press, resulting in heat loss. Utility Model Content
[0007] In order to solve the above technical problems, the purpose of the utility model is to provide a device for cascade utilization of energy and improving borax yield in boron chemical production, wherein a carbon decomposition tank is connected to a material paddle tank, an output pipeline of the material paddle tank is connected in parallel with a secondary re-slurry pipeline after secondary heat exchange and then connected to a polypropylene diaphragm plate frame for primary filtration; a filter residue output end of the polypropylene diaphragm plate frame is connected to a re-slurry tank, a filtrate output end of the polypropylene diaphragm plate frame is connected to a control filter tank, a re-slurry tank is connected to a primary re-slurry tank, a primary re-slurry tank is connected to a secondary re-slurry tank, and a re-slurry tank is connected to a return water pipe of a tailings pond;

[0009] The carbon decomposition tank is connected with a batching tank, a steam delivery pipeline, a carbon dioxide delivery pipeline and a gas recovery device.
