[0022] In order to make the purpose, technical solutions and advantages of the present invention more clearly understood, the present invention is further described in detail below in conjunction with the accompanying drawings and embodiments.

[0023] In one embodiment, Figure 1-Figure 3 As shown, a drying device for natural gas liquefaction pretreatment includes a drying box 1, a plurality of supporting legs 2 are arranged at the bottom of the drying box 1, a first baffle 3 is arranged in the drying box 1, a second baffle 4 is arranged above the first baffle 3, a separation mechanism is arranged between the first baffle 3 and the second baffle 4, an air inlet pipe 7 is arranged on the surface of the drying box 1 outside the separation mechanism, a dust removal mechanism is arranged above the second baffle 4 in the drying box 1, and a cleaning mechanism is arranged on the dust removal mechanism. Natural gas is transported into the separation mechanism in the drying box 1 through the air inlet pipe 7, the separation mechanism can separate dust and a large amount of water from the natural gas, the dust removal mechanism can cool the wet natural gas to below the dew point, so that the water in the wet gas condenses into water droplets, and the water and other impurities and dust condense into liquid, thereby improving the drying efficiency of the natural gas, and the water on the condenser is scraped off by the cleaning mechanism to improve the recycling efficiency.

[0024] In one embodiment, Figure 3 As shown, the separation mechanism includes a first partition 5, and a plurality of first partitions 5 are evenly distributed at the bottom end of the second baffle 4. A plurality of evenly distributed second partitions 6 are arranged at the top end of the first baffle 3, and the first partition 5 and the second partition 6 are cross-arranged. The bottom end of the first partition 5 does not contact the surface of the first baffle 3, and the top end of the second partition 6 does not contact the bottom surface of the second baffle 4. The natural gas flows between the first partition 5 and the second partition 6. During the flow of wet natural gas, the relative positions between the partitions cause the natural gas flow to change its flow direction. At this time, the flowing natural gas has a large inertia to drive the dust and moisture, which will collide with the partition, so that the dust and a large amount of moisture are separated from the natural gas.

[0025] In one embodiment, Figure 2As shown, the impurity removal mechanism includes a plurality of condensing tubes 9, which are evenly distributed between the upper portion of the second baffle plate 4 and the inner wall of the drying box 1. The wet natural gas contacts the condensing tubes 9, and the wet gas is cooled to below the dew point, so that the moisture in the wet gas condenses into water droplets, and the moisture and other impurities and dust condense into liquid.

[0026] In one embodiment, Figure 3 As shown, an air inlet groove 22 is provided on the end of the second baffle plate 4 away from the air inlet pipe 7 , and the separated natural gas enters the upper part of the second baffle plate 6 through the air inlet groove 22 .

[0027] In one embodiment, Figure 2 As shown, the cleaning mechanism includes a scraper 10, which is slidably connected to the condenser 9. A screw rod 11 is arranged above the scraper 10, one end of the screw rod 11 is rotatably connected to the inner wall of the drying box 1, and the other end of the screw rod 11 is fixedly connected to the output end of the motor 12 outside the drying box 1. A connecting block 13 is arranged on the top of the scraper 10, and the connecting block 13 is rotatably connected to the screw rod thread. Starting the motor 12 can drive the screw rod 11 to rotate, thereby driving the scraper 10 to move laterally to scrape off the dust and moisture remaining on the condenser 9.

[0028] In one embodiment, Figure 3 As shown, the surface of the second baffle plate 4 is an inclined surface inclined toward the air inlet groove 22 , and the scraped water and dust slide down to the air inlet groove 22 through the inclined surface of the second baffle plate 4 , and flow into the water outlet 8 through the air inlet groove 22 and the water permeable hole 8 .

[0029] In one embodiment, Figure 2 As shown, a plurality of water permeable holes 8 are provided on the first baffle plate 3, a symmetrical guide plate 14 is provided on the bottom surface of the drying box 1 below the first baffle plate 3, and a water outlet 15 is provided between the guide plates 14 at the bottom of the drying box 1. The dust and water droplets on the first partition plate 5 and the second partition plate 6 will fall onto the guide plate 14 from the water permeable holes, and be discharged from the water outlet 15 along the guide plate 14, thereby separating a large amount of liquid and large-diameter dust in the natural gas.

[0030] In one embodiment, Figure 2 and Figure 3 As shown, an air outlet pipe 20 is provided on one side of the top of the drying box 1, a support plate 16 is provided on one side outside the drying box 1, a support seat 17 is provided at the bottom of the support plate 16, a cooling column 18 is provided on the support plate 16, a connecting pipe 19 is wound around the cooling column 18, one end of the connecting pipe 19 is connected to the air outlet pipe 20, and the other end of the connecting pipe 19 is located at one side of the bottom of the cooling column 18 and a mounting plate 21 is provided, and the cooling column 20 realizes effective cooling treatment of natural gas.

[0031] The above embodiment discloses a drying device for natural gas liquefaction pretreatment. When in use, natural gas is transported into the separation mechanism in the drying box 1 through the air inlet pipe 7. The natural gas flows between the first partition plate 5 and the second partition plate 6. During the flow of wet natural gas, the relative positions between the partition plates change the flow direction of the natural gas flow. At this time, the flowing natural gas has a large inertia to drive the dust and water, which will collide with the partition plate, so that the dust and a large amount of water are separated from the natural gas. The separated natural gas enters the upper part of the second partition plate 6 through the air inlet groove 22. The wet natural gas contacts the condenser 9, and the wet gas is cooled to below the dew point, so that the water in the wet gas condenses into water droplets. The moisture and other impurities and dust are condensed into liquid. The starting motor 12 can drive the screw 11 to rotate, thereby driving the scraper 10 to move horizontally to scrape off the dust and moisture remaining on the condenser 9. The scraped moisture and dust slide through the inclined surface of the second baffle 4 to the air inlet groove 22, and flow into the water outlet 15 through the air inlet groove 22 and the water permeable hole 8. The dust and water droplets on the first partition 5 and the second partition 6 will also fall from the water permeable hole onto the guide plate 14, and be discharged from the water outlet 15 along the guide plate 14, thereby separating a large amount of liquid and large-diameter dust in the natural gas, improving the drying efficiency of the natural gas, and the natural gas after drying is discharged from the outlet pipe 20.
