Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] The utility model relates to a recycling system, in particular to a condensed water recycling system for a tobacco sheet redrying machine, belonging to the technical field of tobacco equipment. Background Art
[0002] Generally speaking, in the tobacco leaf threshing and redrying production line used in the tobacco industry, the steam in the drying area forms a large amount of high-temperature condensed water after heat exchange through the heater. The redrying plant sends the condensed water back to the boiler room for heating and vaporization into steam for reuse. During the recycling and transportation of condensed water, due to the high temperature and long distance, the amount of heat energy lost along the way is large, resulting in a huge waste of energy. The original tobacco leaf redrying machine rehumidification area direct injection steam pipeline only has high-pressure steam pipeline to supply steam, and the energy consumption is relatively high.
[0003] After searching for novelties, it is found that there are currently two patents for the recovery and utilization of condensed water from tobacco slice redrying machines: one of which is a Chinese utility model patent with application number CN201320140633.3, which discloses a "waste heat recovery device for high-temperature condensed water from tobacco slice redrying machines". The patent describes the recovery of high-temperature condensed water produced by the steam heat exchanger in the front box of the drying area for use in the first heat exchanger in the rear box of the drying area, which can replace part of the steam to provide a heat source for heating the circulating air, thereby achieving the purpose of reducing steam energy consumption.
[0004] However, the above patents still have technical defects and shortcomings: the heat contained in the high-temperature condensate generated by the steam heat exchanger in the drying area box is not fully utilized, and the condensate is easily generated due to pressure changes during the recycling process. The secondary steam and condensate are mixed in the pipeline and are prone to water hammer phenomenon, noise, vibration, shock waves, etc., which cause serious damage to the pipeline and lead to pipeline leakage and other problems.
[0005] Another Chinese utility model patent with application number CN202222781064.2 discloses "a tobacco leaf redrying and rehumidification energy-saving system based on condensate water recycling". The patent describes the recovery of high-temperature condensate produced by the steam heat exchanger in the drying area and sending it to a constant temperature water tank. The outlet pipe of the constant temperature water tank is sent to the rehumidification area and the compressed air pipe through the atomizing nozzle to form atomized water to humidify the material in the rehumidification area, thereby achieving the purpose of reducing energy consumption.
[0006] However, the above patents still have technical defects and shortcomings: the heat contained in the high-temperature condensed water generated by the steam heat exchanger in the drying area box is not fully utilized. Since the amount of high-temperature condensed water generated in the drying area is large, the high-temperature condensed water is sent to the constant temperature water tank in the rehumidification area, and then mixed with cold water to form constant temperature water. The amount of constant temperature water is limited. In this case, the reuse amount of high-temperature condensed water is low, and a large amount of high-temperature condensed water heat energy has not been effectively reused, and the utilization rate is low.
[0007] Here, a condensate recycling system for a tobacco slice redrying machine is proposed. The high-temperature condensate in the drying area of the tobacco slice redrying machine is recycled to a water storage tank. High-pressure steam is used for extraction to extract the low-pressure secondary steam generated by the high-temperature condensate in the water storage tank. The two are mixed to form medium-pressure steam, which is reused in the direct injection steam pipeline in the rehumidification area to increase the temperature and humidify the materials, thereby achieving the purpose of reducing the steam energy consumption of the equipment.
[0008] Therefore, the key to solving the above technical problems is to develop a reasonably designed, stable and reliable condensate recovery and utilization system for tobacco slice redrying machines. Summary of the invention

[0069] In summary, a more specific implementation method of the present invention is:
[0070] Before using the condensate recovery system for a tobacco sheet redrying machine of the above-mentioned design structure, the already manufactured system needs to be installed as a backup.
[0071] The specific usage steps are: as the equipment startup time goes by, the high-pressure steam pipeline 1 provides high-pressure steam. After the high-pressure steam enters the several heat exchangers 3 in the drying area 2 through the first connecting main pipe 15, the high-temperature condensed water generated gradually converges into the condensed water collecting pipe 4, and enters the water storage tank 5 through the condensed water collecting pipe 4. When the high-temperature condensed water in the water storage tank 5 reaches the use water level, the high-pressure steam pipeline 1 provides high-pressure steam. The high-pressure steam passes through the second connecting main pipe 16 and is regulated by the second control valve 18. The low-pressure secondary steam generated by the high-temperature condensed water in the water storage tank 5 is drawn out through the low-pressure steam pipe 8 by the ejector 10. After being mixed into medium-pressure steam, it is supplied to the direct injection steam pipeline 14 in the rehumidification area 13 through the medium-pressure steam pipe 11 for use.
[0072] More specifically, during the above-mentioned use, since a water level sensor is also provided, when the high-temperature condensed water in the water storage tank 5 reaches the use water level, that is, reaches the middle water level sensor 20, under the control of the control device, the water pump 6 is closed, the first control valve 9 is opened, the ejector 10 is opened, the first switch valve 12 is opened, the second switch valve 17 is closed, and the second control valve 18 is opened; a single rehumidification zone 13 with a direct injection steam pipeline 14 regulated by the first control valve 9 can supply steam to the rehumidification zone 13 through the control device through the high-pressure steam pipeline 1, the water storage tank 5, the second connecting main pipe 16, the second control valve 18, the low-pressure steam pipe 8, the ejector 10, the medium-pressure steam pipe 11, and the first switch valve 12.
[0073] When the water level in the water storage tank 5 reaches the low water level sensor 19, under the control of the control device, the water pump 6 is closed, the first control valve 9 is opened, the ejector 10 is closed, the first switch valve 12 is closed, the second switch valve 17 is opened, and the second control valve 18 is closed, and the high-pressure steam pipeline 1 directly supplies steam to the direct injection steam pipeline 14 in the rehumidification zone 13 through the second switch valve 17.
[0074] When the water level in the water storage tank 5 reaches the high water level sensor 21, under the control of the control device, the water pump 6 is turned on to remove excess condensed water.
[0075] When the equipment is shut down, the water pump 6 is turned on to discharge the condensed water in the water storage tank 5 to the low water level sensor 19, and then the water pump 6 is turned off.
[0076] During the above use process, the equipment can automatically switch the steam supply pipeline for use according to the situation; however, the low-pressure steam pipe 8 cannot be directly connected to the high-pressure steam pipeline 1 to prevent the low-pressure steam pipe 8 from being blocked by the high-pressure steam of the high-pressure steam pipeline 1, resulting in fluctuations in the pressure of the direct injection steam pipeline;
[0077] In addition, the condensed water generated at the initial startup of the equipment is less, which is insufficient to generate sufficient secondary steam for the direct injection steam pipeline 14 in the rehumidification zone 13, and the high-pressure steam pipeline 1 has to be used to supply steam, so the second switch valve 17 is set at the input end of the direct injection steam pipeline 14 in each rehumidification zone in the system for switching the steam pipeline. It can also be configured in the direct injection steam pipelines of the rehumidification zone 1, rehumidification zone 2, rehumidification zone 3, and rehumidification zone 4 according to needs.
[0078] During use, when the high-temperature condensed water in the water storage tank 5 reaches the position of the high water level sensor 21, the high water level sensor 21 will send water level information to the control device, and then the control device will send an instruction to the water pump 6 to drain water. The water pump 6 starts to work to drain water until the predetermined control water level is reached; the water pump 6 can discharge excess condensed water into the condensed water recovery pipeline through the outlet pipe, thereby realizing the recovery and reuse of the condensed water.
[0079] Finally, it should be noted that the above is only a preferred embodiment of the utility model, and does not limit the utility model in other forms. Any technician familiar with the profession may use the technical content disclosed above to change or modify it into an equivalent embodiment with equivalent changes. However, any simple modification, equivalent change and modification made to the above embodiment based on the technical essence of the utility model without departing from the content of the technical solution of the utility model still belongs to the protection scope of the technical solution of the utility model.
