[0025] The three-phase separator 3 is connected to the air outlet 9 and the inlet of the heat pump system 4; the outlet of the heat pump system 4 is connected to the inlet of the fan 2; the outlet of the fan 2 is connected to the air inlet 6; the spiral body 12 is provided with air holes; the spiral body 12 is also wrapped with a hydrophobic breathable semipermeable membrane to cover the air holes; the three-phase separator 3 and the heat pump system 4 are used to realize the circulation of the dry heat source, and the hydrophobic breathable semipermeable membrane is used to realize the micro-nano-level uniform distribution of hot air. After the hot air and the saline wastewater are fully in contact on the surface of the semipermeable membrane, the saline wastewater is instantly crystallized and dried. At the same time, the heat pump system 4 is used to realize the latent heat recovery of the condensation of the moist hot air. There is no need to separately equip the cooling circulating water and steam heat source, which saves energy and avoids secondary pollution to the external environment of the system, so as to achieve the purpose of low-energy consumption and efficient crystallization and drying of the saline wastewater.

[0026] The specific material and preparation method of the hydrophobic breathable semipermeable membrane can refer to the prior art. As an option, the hydrophobic breathable semipermeable membrane is made of a composite of one or more polymer materials such as polytetrafluoroethylene, polyethylene or polypropylene; the material of the hydrophobic breathable semipermeable membrane has low surface energy and does not allow water to wet the surface, and can also resist organic pollution and operate at a high temperature of 150°C; the membrane pore size of the hydrophobic breathable semipermeable membrane is Φ10~Φ50nm; the pore size of the air pores is Φ1.5~Φ3mm; after the saline wastewater enters the spiral airflow crystallization dryer 1, the heat source air is evenly distributed in a micro-nano manner through the hydrophobic breathable semipermeable membrane, and the heat source air is fully in contact with the saline wastewater on the surface of the semipermeable membrane, thereby increasing the heat exchange efficiency and the liquid vaporization rate.

[0028] After the hot and humid air discharged after three-phase separation is processed by the heat pump system 4, the hot and humid air is cooled, and the water vapor is condensed into water droplets and discharged from the air. The heat pump refrigerant recovers heat energy to achieve evaporation during the dehumidification process of the hot and humid air, and the redundant energy is dissipated to the outside of the system through heat exchange of the cooling circulating water system, ensuring the continuous and stable operation of the compressor; the refrigerant converted into steam after evaporation is converted into high-temperature refrigerant by compression of the compressor; the dry air after cooling is converted into higher temperature dry air through the recovered condensation heat to achieve energy recycling; the refrigerant of the heat pump is a refrigerant such as R134a or R142b, and the heat pump is also connected to a condensed water collector 11. The whole system is closed in design, hot air is recycled, no secondary pollution is caused to the outside, and the energy utilization rate is high. The outlet temperature of the heat pump system 4 is 45-80°C, so that the circulating hot air of 45-80°C is used as the drying heat source.

[0029] Furthermore, a liquid distribution spray pipe 7 is provided at the end of the feed port 5 inserted into the outer shell 13 ; and the discharge port 8 is connected to a crusher 10 .

After crystallization and drying, the solid is discharged from the system through the discharge port 8 at the bottom of the spiral airflow crystallization dryer 1, and the saturated wet air enters the three-phase separator 3;

[0031] After the saturated wet air passes through the three-phase separator 3 to remove particulate impurities and liquid foam, it enters the heat pump system 4 to separate the air and moisture in the wet and hot exhaust gas, and at the same time the heat pump system 4 recovers part of the condensation heat; the condensed hot air recovered by the heat pump system 4 reaches the dry air temperature and is sent back into the spiral airflow crystallization dryer 1 through the fan 2 as a dry heat source. The utility model adopts a fully enclosed design, and uses 45-80°C micro-nano-level dry hot air to achieve thorough crystallization and drying of water-containing and salt-containing wastewater. At the same time, a heat pump is used to realize partial condensation heat recovery, and there is no need to separately equip cooling circulating water and steam heat sources, which saves 30% energy compared with traditional drying equipment.
