Description

Technical Field

[0001] The utility model relates to the technical field of chemical production, in particular to a tail gas breathing tank for a concentrated sulfuric acid storage tank. Background Art

[0002] Concentrated sulfuric acid is often used in fine chemical production. Concentrated sulfuric acid is highly acidic, highly oxidizing, hygroscopic, dehydrating, and non-volatile. Whether it is the concentrated sulfuric acid transfer tank in the workshop, the high-level tank or the concentrated sulfuric acid storage tank in the tank area, the material is usually carbon steel. The tail gas of the storage tank is generally directly connected to the atmosphere. Due to the hygroscopicity of concentrated sulfuric acid, it can absorb water molecules in gas and liquid and crystal water in solid. In this way, once the liquid level of the storage tank drops, the concentrated sulfuric acid remaining on the tank wall will absorb water molecules in the air and be diluted into dilute sulfuric acid. Dilute sulfuric acid will corrode the oxide film on the carbon steel and metal surface and thus corrode the equipment. Over time, it is easy to cause equipment leakage. Utility Model Content

Although exemplary embodiments of the present invention are shown in the accompanying drawings, it should be understood that the present invention can be implemented in various forms and should not be limited by the embodiments described herein. On the contrary, these embodiments are provided to enable a clearer and more thorough understanding of the present invention and to fully convey the scope of the present invention to those skilled in the art.

[0028] Embodiment 1

[0029] Please refer to Figure 1 The embodiment provides an exhaust gas breathing tank for a concentrated sulfuric acid storage tank, comprising a tank body 1 and an exhaust gas pipe 2, a feeding pipe 3, a gas phase pipe 4, a sight glass 13, a sampling tube 5, an overflow pipe 6 and a drain pipe 7 located on the outer wall of the tank body 1.

[0030] like Figure 1 As shown, the tank body 1 is arranged on a bottom plate 11, in which a steel plate is horizontally arranged, and the steel plate divides the tank body 1 into a lower liquid storage area A and an upper filler area B, and the filler area B is provided with an absorbent filler capable of adsorbing sulfuric acid gas and moisture, one side of the steel plate is a sealing steel plate 14 and the other side is a grid steel plate 15, and a vertical downward inner partition 16 is arranged at the connection point of the sealing steel plate 14 and the grid steel plate 15, and below the liquid storage area A is a solution cavity A3 for storing a water-absorbing solution, and the lowest point of the inner partition 16 is lower than the standard liquid level of the water-absorbing solution, so that the upper part of the liquid storage area A is divided into an atmosphere side cavity A2 and an exhaust gas side cavity A1;

[0031] In this embodiment, the top of the tank body 1 is a detachable cover plate 12, through which the adsorbent filler can be replaced to ensure the adsorption effect. In this embodiment, the adsorbent filler is a honeycomb activated carbon filler 17 with a thickness of 200 mm, and its optional thickness is 50-300 mm; in this embodiment, the water-absorbing solution is concentrated sulfuric acid. In this embodiment, the lower part of the inner partition 16 extends into the standard liquid level by 50 mm.

[0032] Among them, the sight glass 13 corresponds to the standard liquid level. In this embodiment, the area of ​​the sight glass 13 on the outer wall of the tank body 1 is such that the horizontal center axis of the sight glass 13 is flush with the standard liquid level. The sight glass 13 is used to observe the liquid level in the liquid storage tank.

[0033] Among them, one end of the tail gas pipe 2 is connected to the tail gas side cavity A1 between the sealing steel plate 14 and the standard liquid level and the other end is used to connect to the concentrated sulfuric acid storage tank, the feeding pipe 3 is connected to the bottom of the grid steel plate 15, the gas phase pipe 4 is connected to the top of the filling area B, the sampling tube 5 is connected to the solution cavity A3 below the standard liquid level, the overflow pipe 6 is connected to the position flush with the standard liquid level, and the drain pipe 7 is connected to the bottom of the storage area A. In this embodiment, the overflow pipe 6 is connected to the drain pipe 7, and their common outlet is used to dock with the movable collection tank body 1. The movable collection tank body 1 is placed on site, but is only used when drainage is needed.

[0034] At the same time, a feeding ball valve 31 is provided on the feeding pipe 3, a sampling ball valve 51 is provided on the sampling pipe 5, an overflow ball valve 61 is provided on the overflow pipe 6, and a drain ball valve 71 is provided on the drain pipe 7. The ball valves are used to control the opening and closing of the pipelines, thereby realizing feeding, sampling, overflow control and draining.

[0035] Reference Figure 1 The present embodiment provides a specific example of an exhaust breathing tank, which is a device with an overall size of 400*900mm, wherein the size of the liquid storage area A is 400*650mm, the size of the filling area B is 400*200mm, and the gas phase pipe 4 is a DN150 gas phase pipe 4.

[0036] Among them, concentrated sulfuric acid storage tanks include concentrated sulfuric acid transfer tanks in workshops, high-level tanks or concentrated sulfuric acid storage tanks in tank areas.

[0037] Therefore, the operation process of this embodiment is described as follows:

[0038] (1) Preparation stage: A honeycomb activated carbon filler 17 with a thickness of 200 mm is loaded into the filler box through the removable cover plate 12, and then the removable cover plate 12 is locked;

[0039] (2) Feeding stage: Ensure that the overflow ball valve 61, the drain ball valve 71, and the sampling ball valve 51 are in the closed state, then open the feeding ball valve 31, and add concentrated sulfuric acid with a mass content of 98% into the solution cavity A3 through the feeding pipe 3. Observe the liquid level inside the solution cavity A3 through the sight glass 13. When the liquid level exceeds the middle of the sight glass 13, close the feeding ball valve 31 to stop feeding, then open the overflow ball valve 61, and let the excess concentrated sulfuric acid be discharged into the movable collection tank through the overflow pipe 6 to ensure that the normal liquid level of the solution cavity A3 is exactly in the middle of the sight glass 13, and then close the overflow ball valve 61.

[0040] (3) Exhalation stage: When the concentrated sulfuric acid storage tank is charged, its exhaust gas enters the exhaust side cavity A1 through the exhaust pipe 2. When the concentrated sulfuric acid storage tank is charged too fast at a certain moment, causing the pressure to rise to more than 1803Pa, the exhaust gas in the exhaust side cavity A1 will break through the liquid seal and enter the atmosphere side cavity A2, and then pass through the grid steel plate 15, the honeycomb activated carbon filler 17, and the DN150 gas phase pipe 4 in sequence to be discharged into the atmosphere. During the exhaust process, trace amounts of sulfuric acid gas will be absorbed by the activated carbon to ensure that the exhaust gas discharged into the atmosphere meets environmental protection requirements.

[0041] (4) Inhalation stage: When the concentrated sulfuric acid storage tank is discharged, causing the pressure to drop by more than 1803Pa, the air in the atmosphere enters the packing area B through the DN150 gas phase pipe 4. In the process of passing through the activated carbon packing layer, part of the moisture in the air will be absorbed, and then enter the atmosphere side cavity A2. Under the action of the pressure difference, the air breaks through the liquid seal and enters the tail gas side cavity A1. In the process of the air breaking through the liquid seal, the remaining moisture in the air is absorbed by the concentrated sulfuric acid in the solution cavity A3, and finally enters the concentrated sulfuric acid storage tank through the tail gas pipe 2, ensuring that the air inhaled by the concentrated sulfuric acid storage tank does not contain moisture.

[0042] At the same time, during the production process, the staff regularly observes the sight glass 13. When the real-time liquid level is full of the sight glass 13, the sampling ball valve 51 is opened, and the liquid in the solution cavity A3 is collected through the sampling tube 5 for detection. When the detection result shows that the mass content of concentrated sulfuric acid is less than 90%, the drain ball valve 71 is opened, and the liquid in the solution cavity A3 is discharged into the movable collection tank through the drain pipe 7. After the liquid in the solution cavity A3 is emptied, the feeding is completed as described in the feeding stage. When the liquid detection result in the solution cavity A3 shows that the mass content of concentrated sulfuric acid is higher than 90%, the overflow ball valve 61 is opened to allow the excess concentrated sulfuric acid to be discharged into the movable collection tank through the overflow pipe 6, ensuring that the normal liquid level of the solution cavity A3 is exactly in the middle of the sight glass 13, and then the overflow ball valve 61 is closed.

[0043] At the same time, the adsorption of the honeycomb activated carbon filler 17 in the packing layer can be judged by observing the pressure of the concentrated sulfuric acid storage tank to determine whether it needs to be replaced. When the real-time liquid level is in the middle of the sight glass 13 and there is no inlet or outlet of the concentrated sulfuric acid storage tank, the honeycomb activated carbon filler 17 needs to be replaced when the pressure on the concentrated sulfuric acid storage tank is greater than 2100 Pa. At this time, open the detachable cover plate 12, take out the honeycomb activated carbon filler 17, fill the new honeycomb activated carbon filler 17 into the filler, and then lock the detachable cover plate 12 to complete the replacement of the filler.

[0044] In summary, this embodiment can ensure that the tail gas on the concentrated sulfuric acid storage tank meets environmental protection requirements when it is discharged into the atmosphere; and ensure that the air inhaled into the concentrated sulfuric acid storage tank does not contain moisture, thereby avoiding the problem of corrosion of the concentrated sulfuric acid storage tank. Moreover, the tail gas breathing tank of this embodiment occupies a small area, has low cost, does not need to modify the original concentrated sulfuric acid storage tank, has low operating loss, long maintenance cycle, convenient material replacement, and simple operation for operators.
