Description

Technical Field

[0001] The utility model relates to the technical field of chemical equipment, in particular to a device for preventing liquid alkali from flowing back. Background Art

[0002] In the product refining unit of the refinery, for the regeneration of alkali liquid, there is sodium mercaptide in the alkali liquid, and non-purified wind (air) needs to be introduced into the alkali liquid to reduce it to sodium hydroxide. The non-purified air in the factory air pipeline flows into the liquid alkali pipeline through the pipeline, but due to the medium characteristics of the liquid alkali and other factors, the factory air check valve will fail. During the liquid alkali regeneration operation, the factory air check valve fails, causing the liquid alkali to flow back into the factory air pipeline, affecting and damaging the factory air system. Utility Model Content

[0003] In order to solve the above technical problems, the utility model provides a device for preventing liquid alkali from flowing back, which is arranged between the factory air main pipeline and the catalyst alkali liquid pipeline, and comprises:

[0004] Buffer tank;

[0005] The first pipeline is arranged between the main pipeline and the buffer tank, and a first valve is arranged near the end of the buffer tank.

[0006] The second pipeline is arranged between the buffer tank and the catalyst alkali liquid pipeline, a third valve is arranged near the buffer tank, and a first check valve is arranged near the end of the catalyst alkali liquid pipeline;

[0007] Furthermore, it also includes a second one-way valve, which is arranged on the second pipeline and is located between the third valve and the first one-way valve; it also includes a third pipeline, which is arranged between the first pipeline and the second pipeline, and one end of the third pipeline is connected to the pipe section between the second one-way valve and the third valve; the third pipeline is provided with a second valve.

[0008] Furthermore, it also includes a fourth pipeline, which is arranged beside the buffer tank. An on-site liquid level meter is arranged on the fourth pipeline for observing the back alkali liquid level in the buffer tank.

[0009] Furthermore, it also includes a pressure gauge and a safety valve.

[0010] Furthermore, it also includes a heating pipeline, which is arranged on the outer periphery of the buffer tank.

[0011] The advantage of the utility model is that by arranging the device between the factory air main line and the alkali liquid pipeline, a factory air buffer tank is added before the first one-way valve of the factory air pipeline entering the liquid alkali system. Therefore, during the liquid alkali regeneration operation, if the first one-way valve does not work, the liquid alkali that flows back into the buffer tank will not affect or damage the factory air pipeline, thereby achieving the purpose of protecting the factory air system.
