Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This utility model relates to distillation columns, specifically an intelligent multi-effect extraction distillation column. Background Technology
[0002] Extractive distillation is similar to azeotropic distillation in that a third component (called an extractant or solvent) is added to the feed solution to change the relative volatility of the original components, thereby achieving separation. However, extractive distillation requires that the boiling point of the extractant be much higher than that of the components in the feed solution, and that it does not form an azeotrope with the components. Extractive distillation is often used to separate solutions in which the boiling points (volatility) of the components are very similar. The amount, quality, and temperature of the extractant have a significant impact on the separation effect and economy of extractive distillation. With in-depth research on extractive distillation technology, the effect of extractive distillation is better when several extractants are used in combination. However, existing extractive distillation columns do not have accurate control over the amount and temperature of the extractant, and multiple extractants cannot be well mixed.
[0003] To address this, an extractive distillation column with application number 201921339582.0 was developed, which can better solve the above-mentioned technical problems. However, when multiple extractants are mixed in existing multi-stage extractive distillation columns, the extractants are added only in one area, which results in poor uniformity of extractant mixing or long mixing time, which is not conducive to use. Utility Model Content
[0004] In order to overcome the shortcomings of the prior art, this utility model provides an intelligent multi-effect extraction distillation column, which effectively solves the problem that when multiple extractants are mixed in the existing multi-stage extraction distillation column, the extractant is added only in one area, which results in poor uniformity of the extractant mixing or long mixing time, which is not conducive to use.
[0005] To achieve the above objectives, the present invention provides the following technical solution: The present invention includes a distillation column body for use, a support mounted on the top of the distillation column body and an mounting plate provided at one end of the support, and also includes a mixing assembly, wherein the mixing assembly is mounted on the top of the mounting plate;
[0006] The mixing assembly includes a mixing tank, a first rotating shaft, a second rotating shaft, stirring blades, a stirring motor, a feeding tank, a feeding hopper, a diverter column, a booster pump, a feeding pipe, a feeding pump, an arc-shaped section, and nozzles. The mixing tank is fixed on a mounting plate. The first rotating shaft is horizontally mounted on the top of the inner side of the mixing tank, and the second rotating shaft is horizontally mounted on the bottom of the inner side of the mixing tank. A stirring motor is mounted on one end of the first and second rotating shafts. The feeding tank is mounted on one side of the top of the mixing tank, and a feeding hopper is mounted on the top of the feeding tank. A diverter column is mounted in the middle of the inner side of the mixing tank, and the top of the diverter column is connected to the feeding tank. A booster pump is mounted on the top of the diverter column. A feeding pipe communicating with the distillation column body is provided at the bottom of one side of the mixing tank, and a feeding pump is mounted on the feeding pipe. Several nozzles are opened on the surface of the diverter column.
[0007] Preferably, both the surface of the first rotating shaft and the second rotating shaft are equipped with a plurality of stirring blades.
[0008] Preferably, the first and second rotating shafts are connected to the mixing tank via bearings.
[0009] Preferably, a filter screen is installed inside the feeding hopper.
[0010] Preferably, the diversion column is provided with an arc-shaped portion at the positions corresponding to the first and second rotating shafts.
[0011] Preferably, a disc-shaped heating tube is installed at the bottom of the inner side of the mixing box.
[0012] Beneficial Effects: In use, the extractant to be used is added to the inside of the feeding tank through the feeding hopper. After addition, the booster pump operates, pressurizing the extractant in the feeding tank and sending it into the distribution column. It is then sprayed out through the nozzles on the distribution column, allowing for relatively uniform spraying from the center of the mixing tank to the surrounding areas. This ensures the extractant is evenly added to the mixing tank for mixing. Simultaneously, the stirring motor operates, driving the first and second rotating shafts and stirring blades to rotate, thus stirring the materials in the mixing tank and improving mixing efficiency. After mixing, the feed pump operates, feeding the mixed extractant through the feed pipe into the distillation column for distillation. This invention has a novel structure and ingenious design, facilitating the mixing of multiple extractants, resulting in good mixing uniformity and high mixing efficiency, which is beneficial for distillation.
