Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] The utility model relates to the technical field of safe unloading of highly corrosive materials, in particular to a safe unloading device for acidic highly corrosive materials. Background Art
[0002] Concentrated sulfuric acid is highly corrosive: Under normal pressure, boiling concentrated sulfuric acid can corrode all metals except iridium and ruthenium, and has a strong irritating and corrosive effect on skin, mucous membranes and other tissues. Steam or mist can cause conjunctivitis, conjunctival edema, corneal opacity, and even blindness; cause respiratory irritation, and in severe cases, dyspnea and pulmonary edema; high concentrations can cause laryngeal spasm or glottal edema and suffocation and death. Oral administration causes digestive tract burns and ulcers; severe cases may have gastric perforation, peritonitis, kidney damage, shock, etc. Skin burns can cause erythema in mild cases and ulcers in severe cases. After healing, the scars shrink and affect function. Splashing into the eyes can cause burns, even corneal perforation, panophthalmitis and even blindness.
[0003] In chemical production, highly corrosive materials such as concentrated sulfuric acid are used. How to ensure the safety of unloading during the transportation process is crucial. The traditional unloading method is to build a sulfuric acid storage tank underground, and then directly put the tank truck into the storage tank through a hose by the position difference after it arrives, or to build a sulfuric acid storage tank on the ground and build a transfer pit next to it. After the tank truck arrives, it is directly put into the pit through a hose by the position difference, and then the sulfuric acid is sent to the storage tank by a pump. This method requires a large investment and involves problems such as the treatment of sulfuric acid exhaust gas. Utility Model Content
