Technical Field
[0001] The utility model relates to the technical field of petrochemical equipment, in particular to an anti-coking waste lubricating oil pretreatment dehydration tower. Background Art
[0002] Lubricating oil is a liquid or semi-solid lubricant used on various mechanical equipment to reduce friction and protect machinery and processed parts. During use, its composition, structure and performance will change due to external conditions. As a result, waste lubricating oil will contain a large number of other impurities, mainly including water and light oil. Waste lubricating oil regeneration has become the mainstream process for waste lubricating oil recycling due to the economic, environmental and product advantages of hydrogenation process. However, metals and chlorides in waste oil can cause coking and blockage of regeneration equipment and poisoning of hydrogenation catalysts, making it impossible to achieve continuous long-term operation of equipment, seriously affecting production efficiency. Therefore, metals and chlorides in waste lubricating oil are removed by pretreatment to make their content meet the requirements of hydrogenation process. Reducing or avoiding the problems of hydrogenation catalyst poisoning, equipment blockage and equipment corrosion caused by HCl during hydrogenation is the core of the industrialization of waste lubricating oil hydrogenation process.
[0003] Among them, in the pretreatment process of waste lubricating oil, the dehydration tower is the first step of the pretreatment process. The waste lubricating oil first passes through the dehydration tower to remove most of the water in the waste oil. The upper and lower sections of the dehydration tower are both provided with packing sections, and the raw oil is fed from the middle of the dehydration tower. In the continuous pretreatment process, there is a problem of coking and clogging of the packing in the upper and lower sections of the dehydration tower, which seriously affects the long-term production of the device. How to design an internal structure of the dehydration tower to extend the coking and clogging of the dehydration tower becomes a necessity. Summary of the invention

[0006] Furthermore, a wire mesh demister 13 is provided at the top of the inner cavity of the tower body, and the wire mesh demister 13 uses 250Y stainless steel corrugated plate filler.
[0007] Furthermore, the herringbone baffles 6 are arranged alternately up and down, and are provided with three layers in total.
[0008] Furthermore, the filler 10 installed on the top of the supporting grid 9 is Dg38 stainless steel random stacked saddle ring filler.

[0012] Compared with the prior art, the utility model has the following advantages:
[0013] 1. The filler in the lower section of the dehydration tower is cancelled, and the feed port is set in the lower middle part of the dehydration tower. The coke at the bottom of the dehydration tower is directly settled at the bottom of the dehydration tower, eliminating the problem of difficulty in feeding caused by blockage of the filler in the lower section of the dehydration tower.
[0014] 2. A filter cover is installed at the bottom outlet of the dehydration tower to allow the coking materials to coke at the bottom of the tower as much as possible, thus prolonging the blockage period of the outlet pipe, filter and subsequent stage pump.
[0015] 3. The herringbone baffle can intercept most of the coking materials entrained in the gas phase, prolonging the clogging period of the upper packing of the dehydration tower. The packing in the dehydration tower adopts excellent Dg38 polysaddle ring packing, which has the advantages of reducing the overall gas phase resistance and not easy to coke, thereby prolonging the coking period.
[0016] 4. The direct cooling ring tube injection method is adopted to reduce the risk of top gas phase coking. BRIEF DESCRIPTION OF THE DRAWINGS
