Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] The utility model relates to the technical field of ethylene glycol recovery, in particular to an ethylene glycol tail gas recovery device. Background Art
[0002] At present, the slurry preparation tanks in the polyester system are equipped with vent pipes, which continuously discharge tail gas containing ethylene glycol, and there is no relevant treatment and recovery device. Direct discharge of tail gas containing ethylene glycol will pollute the air and bring a lot of odor to the production area. In addition, the tail gas containing ethylene glycol condenses into liquid wastewater and enters the sewer and even the river around the factory, which will further pollute the ecological environment; at the same time, a large amount of ethylene glycol is wasted.
[0003] In this regard, a Chinese patent with publication number CN202983274U discloses an ethylene glycol recovery device, including a waste gas inlet pipe, a condenser, an ethylene glycol filter tank, and an outlet, wherein the waste gas inlet pipe is surrounded by a condenser; the waste gas inlet pipe is connected to the ethylene glycol filter tank, and the ethylene glycol filter tank is connected to the outlet.
[0004] The device recovers ethylene glycol by condensing ethylene glycol through a condenser. The exhaust gas inlet pipe is directly connected to the ethylene glycol filter tank in a straight line. When the exhaust gas condenses, the air pressure will decrease, and the liquid in the ethylene glycol filter tank will flow back into the inlet pipe. At the same time, other impurities in the exhaust gas cannot be removed. For this reason, we propose an ethylene glycol exhaust gas recovery device to solve the above problems. Utility Model Content

Based on the embodiments in the utility model, all other embodiments obtained by ordinary technicians in this field without creative work are within the scope of protection of the utility model.
[0016] Example 1
[0017] Reference Figure 1 , 2, is the first embodiment of the utility model, which provides an ethylene glycol tail gas recovery device, including a base 1, the top of the base 1 is fixedly connected to a shell and tube heat exchanger 2, the top of the shell and tube heat exchanger 2 is fixedly connected to one end of a connecting pipe 3, the middle of the connecting pipe 3 is fixedly connected to a pretreatment box 4, the other end of the connecting pipe 3 is fixedly connected to one end of a U-shaped tube 5, the other end of the U-shaped tube 5 is fixedly connected to a fan 6, and the fan 6 is fixedly connected to an air intake pipe 7.
[0018] The exhaust gas is drawn by the fan 6 and flows into the air inlet pipe 7. The exhaust gas passes through the U-shaped tube 5 and enters the pretreatment box 4 for treatment. The impurities in the exhaust gas are cleaned, and then the exhaust gas enters the shell and tube heat exchanger 2 for condensation. The ethylene glycol is collected after condensation, which reduces the waste of ethylene glycol. The U-shaped tube 5 is set to avoid reflux of ethylene glycol during condensation.
[0019] Example 2
[0020] Reference Figure 1-3 , which is the second embodiment of the utility model, and this embodiment is based on the previous embodiment.

The setting of the flange 31 makes it convenient to use bolts to fix the connecting pipe 3 to the U-tube and the shell-and-tube heat exchanger 2.
[0021] Specifically, the pretreatment box 4 includes a cylinder 41, a filter plate 42, a cleaning strip 43, a connecting ring 44, a transmission shaft 45, a worm wheel blade 46, and a support frame 47. The two ends of the cylinder 41 are coaxially fixedly connected to the connecting pipe 3. The filter plate 42 is fixedly installed on the inner wall of the cylinder 41 on one side close to the U-shaped tube 5.

When in use, the fan 6 draws exhaust gas from the intake pipe 7, and the exhaust gas passes through the U-shaped tube 5 into the pretreatment box 4 for treatment. The filter plate 42 filters the impurities in the exhaust gas. At the same time, the flow force of the exhaust gas after passing through the filter plate 42 drives the worm wheel blades 46 to rotate, and the worm wheel blades 46 drive the fixed transmission shaft 45 to rotate, and the transmission shaft 45 drives the fixed connecting ring 44 to rotate in a circle. The connecting ring 44 drives the fixed cleaning bar 43 to rotate in a circle. The bottom end of the cleaning bar 43 is fixed with a cleaning brush, and the cleaning brush slides and contacts the filter plate 42, and then scrapes and cleans the filter plate 42 when the cleaning bar 43 rotates in a circle to avoid the filtered impurities from clogging the filter plate 42. Then the exhaust gas enters the shell and tube heat exchanger 2 for condensation, and the ethylene glycol is collected after condensation, which reduces the waste of ethylene glycol. The U-shaped tube 5 is set to avoid reflux of ethylene glycol during condensation.
