Description
Technical Field
[0001] The utility model relates to the technical field of cathode carbon production, in particular to a cathode carbon waste heat recovery and utilization device. Background Art
[0002] Cathode carbon is also called carbon cathode. Carbon cathode refers to the inner lining of aluminum electrolytic cell composed of carbon material and its accessories. The parts that constitute the carbon cathode include the side of the electrolytic cell composed of the right carbon block and carbon paste, the artificial legs composed of rammed bottom paste or special-shaped carbon blocks, the bottom of the electrolytic cell composed of the bottom carbon block group and bottom paste, and a layer of carbon pad rammed with bottom paste under the bottom block. Cathode carbon needs to calcine the raw materials during production. A large amount of waste heat will be wasted in the calcination process. In order to reduce waste, it is necessary to use cathode carbon waste heat recovery and utilization device to recycle waste heat, which is conducive to resource utilization;
[0003] After searching, a Chinese patent with announcement number: CN216081029U discloses a cathode carbon waste heat recovery and utilization device. The utility model has the following beneficial technical effects: the cathode carbon generated in the calcining furnace generates excess heat, and the heat flows out from the outer wall of the calcining furnace and the heat sink. The heat sink is connected to the inside of the square ring tube, and the heat is transferred to the inside of the square ring tube. The water pump draws cold water from the cold water tank into the square ring tube, so that the water takes away the heat, and the hot water enters the hot water tank through the outlet pipe for storage. When the hot water temperature is not high, it can return to the cold water tank through the return pipe, and then be heated through the square ring tube. The blower can blow the cold air through the air inlet pipe to between the calcining furnace and the outer shell. The cold air is heated by the calcining furnace, the heat sink and the square ring tube, and becomes hot air. It enters the heat storage device through the outlet pipe to store the heat. This device stores heat through water and air to reduce heat waste.

[0028] When in use, valve 1 207, valve 2 209 and valve 3 305 are all electric valves controlled by the control panel. The return pipe 208 is on a section of the main water pipe 206 between valve 1 207 and the outer casing 201. Close valve 209, open valve 1 207, and supply water to the main water pipe 206 through the water supply device. The water flows through the main water pipe 206 and valve 1 207 into the outer casing 201. The outer casing 201 is in an inverted U shape, and the water flows to the bottom of both sides of the outer casing 201. The through pipe 202 can connect the two bottom ends of the outer sleeve 201, so that the hot water in a section of the outer sleeve 201 at the top of the filter box 301 can be recovered.
