Abstract
Description
Technical field:
[0001] The utility model relates to the technical field of waste heat recovery and utilization, in particular to a waste heat recovery system for producing steam. Background technology:
[0002] The purified water in the purified water tank is heated by a steam boiler to produce steam. The produced steam is separated by gas distribution cylinders and then distributed to subsequent drug production systems that need to use steam. After a certain period of use, the steam boiler will discharge the wastewater generated therein into the sewage treatment system. In addition, when the gas distribution cylinder distributes steam, condensed water will be generated, and the condensed water will also be sent to the sewage treatment system. At that time, the above-mentioned wastewater and condensed water both contain a large amount of heat and are directly sent to the sewage treatment system for wastewater treatment, resulting in heat waste.

[0005] Furthermore, a liquid level sensor is arranged on the side wall of the gas sub-cylinder, the liquid outlet is opened at the bottom of the gas sub-cylinder, and a solenoid valve is arranged on the pipe at the liquid outlet; a control valve is arranged on the pipe at the wastewater outlet of the steam boiler; the signal output end of the liquid level sensor is connected to the signal input end of the controller through a signal, and the signal output end of the controller is respectively connected to the signal input ends of the circulation pump, the solenoid valve and the control valve through a signal.
[0006] Advantages of the utility model: 1. The connection structure of the utility model is simple and easy to implement. By setting a plate heat exchanger, the condensed water of the cylinder and the waste water discharged from the steam boiler are exchanged with the purified water, thereby preheating the purified water, increasing the temperature of the purified water, reducing the fuel consumption of the subsequent steam boiler, realizing the recovery of the heat of the condensed water and waste water, and saving the cost of preparing steam for the enterprise.
[0007] 2. The utility model realizes automatic control of heat exchange. When the condensed water level is lower than the lower limit and the steam boiler is not discharging wastewater, the controller controls the circulation pump to stop, avoiding long-term operation of the circulation pump and increasing its service life.

[0011] Example: Figure 1 As shown, a waste heat recovery system for producing steam comprises a purified water tank 1, a circulating pump 2, a steam boiler 3, a plate heat exchanger 4 and a gas cylinder 5; the water outlet of the purified water tank 1 is connected with the water inlets of the circulating pump 2 and the steam boiler 3 through pipelines respectively, the water outlet of the circulating pump 2 is connected with the cold medium inlet of the plate heat exchanger 4 through a pipeline, the cold medium outlet of the plate heat exchanger 4 is connected with the water inlet of the purified water tank 1 through a pipeline, the air outlet of the steam boiler 3 is connected with the air inlet of the gas cylinder 5 through a pipeline, the liquid outlet of the gas cylinder 5 and the wastewater outlet of the steam boiler 3 are both connected with the hot medium inlet of the plate heat exchanger 4 through a pipeline, and the hot medium outlet of the plate heat exchanger 4 is connected with the water inlet of the sewage treatment system 6.
[0012] A liquid level sensor 7 is arranged on the side wall of the gas sub-cylinder 5, the liquid outlet is opened at the bottom of the gas sub-cylinder 5, and a solenoid valve 8 is arranged on the pipeline at the liquid outlet; a control valve 9 is arranged on the pipeline at the waste water outlet of the steam boiler 3; the signal output end of the liquid level sensor 7 is connected to the signal input end of the controller 10 through a signal, and the signal output end of the controller 10 is respectively connected to the signal input ends of the circulation pump 2, the solenoid valve 8 and the control valve 9 through a signal.
[0013] Working principle:
[0014] The liquid level sensor 7 constantly detects the condensed water level in the cylinder 5 and transmits the signal to the controller 10. When the liquid level is higher than the upper limit, the circulation pump 2 is started first, and the solenoid valve 8 is controlled to open after a delay of 5 seconds. The condensed water exchanges heat with the purified water in the plate heat exchanger 4. After the heat exchange, the purified water returns to the purified water tank 1, and the condensed water is sent to the subsequent sewage treatment system 6 for treatment as waste water.
[0015] When the steam boiler 3 needs to discharge wastewater, the controller 10 controls the circulation pump 2 to start first, delays 5s to control the control valve 9 to open, and the wastewater exchanges heat with purified water in the plate heat exchanger 4. After the heat exchange, the purified water returns to the purified water tank 1, and the wastewater is sent to the subsequent sewage treatment system 6 for wastewater treatment.
[0016] When the liquid level sensor 7 detects that the condensed water level in the gas cylinder 5 is lower than the lower limit value, the controller 10 controls the solenoid valve 8 to close; when the steam boiler 3 does not need to discharge waste water, the controller 10 controls the control valve 9 to close; when the solenoid valve 8 and the control valve 9 are both in the closed state, the controller 10 controls the circulation pump 2 to stop, so as to avoid the long-term operation of the circulation pump 2 and increase its service life.
[0017] The utility model has a simple connection structure, which is easy to implement and realizes automatic control of heat exchange. By setting a plate heat exchanger 4, the condensed water of the cylinder 5 and the waste water discharged from the steam boiler 3 are exchanged with the purified water, and then the purified water is preheated, the temperature of the purified water is increased, the fuel consumption of the subsequent steam boiler 3 is reduced, the heat recovery of the condensed water and the waste water is realized, and the cost of preparing steam for the enterprise is saved.
