AI Technical Summary

Technical Problem

In the existing evaporator thicker, the amount of crystals overflowing from the overflow port is large, resulting in the failure of the crystal to settle completely, affecting the efficiency of the equipment, and affecting the purity of the separated substances.

Method used

A new type of evaporating thickener is designed. By adding an overflow tube at the overflow port on the right side of the thickener body, the overflow tube extends into the center of the thickener body. When stirring, the crystal is brought close to the side wall by centrifugal force. The overflow tube introduces the central clear liquid into the next process to reduce the crystallization content in the overflow liquid.

Benefits of technology

The amount of crystals overflowing from the overflow port in the thickener is effectively reduced, ensuring that the crystals settle in the thickener, improving equipment efficiency, and improving the purity of the separated substances by reducing the presence of crystals in the overflow liquid.

Abstract

According to the novel evaporation thickener provided by the utility model, the overflow pipe is additionally arranged at the overflow port on the right side surface of the thickener body and extends into the center of the thickener body, so that during stirring, crystals approach to the inner side wall of the thickener body under the influence of centrifugal force because the density of the crystals is greater than that of feed liquid; the overflow pipe enables the clear liquid in the central position of the thickener body to pass through the overflow port to flow into the next process, so that the position of the overflow port of the thickener is adjusted to the central position of the thickener body, and the liquid crystal content of the overflowed material is reduced; in addition, the stirring speed in the thickener is low, so that the disturbance influence on the feed liquid by adding the overflow pipe can be ignored.

Description

Technical Field

[0001] The utility model belongs to the technical field of evaporation and crystallization, and in particular relates to a novel evaporation thickener. Background Art

[0002] The thickener is an important part of the evaporator. During the evaporation and concentration of the feed liquid, crystals will gradually form. The feed liquid containing crystalline particles will be discharged into the thickener. Through sedimentation, most of the crystalline particles will be precipitated in the thickener, and the liquid part will overflow from the overflow port on the side wall of the thickener to the next stage. When the accumulation of crystals in the thickener reaches a certain amount, they will be released from the bottom, and the relatively dry crystals will pass through the centrifuge. In order to prevent the crystals in the thickener from agglomerating, a stirrer is generally added to the thickener to stir the precipitated crystals to prevent agglomeration after long-term standing. Because of the existence of stirring, some crystals are stirred and turned over and float up, flowing out of the overflow port, resulting in the presence of some crystals in the overflow clear liquid. Utility Model Content

[0003] The purpose of the utility model is to reduce the amount of crystals overflowing from the overflow port of the thickener during the production process, to ensure that the crystals produced by the evaporator can settle out in the thickener, thereby improving the efficiency of the equipment; in addition, since some evaporation equipment needs to separate related substances, if the amount of crystals overflowing from the overflow port of the thickener during the production process is reduced, the separated substances can be made purer and the product quality can be improved.

[0004] In order to achieve the above purpose, the technical solution adopted in this application is:

[0005] A novel evaporative thickener comprises a thickener body and an overflow pipe. The overflow pipe passes through an overflow port arranged on the right side of the thickener body and extends into the center of the thickener body. The overflow pipe is arranged horizontally, and one end of the overflow pipe close to the thickener body is an oblique opening.

[0006] Preferably, a top cover is detachably mounted on the top surface of the thickener body; a rotating motor is fixedly mounted on the top surface of the top cover, the output end of the rotating motor is arranged vertically downward, a stirring shaft is fixedly connected to the ground at the output end of the rotating motor, and a paddle is fixedly mounted on the bottom of the stirring shaft.

[0007] Preferably, a discharge valve is provided on the bottom surface of the thickener body; a thickener feed pipe is provided through the left side of the top surface of the top cover, the feed pipe passes through the top cover and extends into the thickener body, and the bottom of the feed pipe is connected to a guide cylinder.

[0008] Compared with the prior art, the advantages and positive effects of the utility model are:

[0009] The utility model designs a novel evaporative thickener, by adding an overflow pipe at the overflow port on the right side of the thickener body, the overflow pipe extends into the center of the thickener body, during stirring, since the crystal density is greater than the material liquid density, the crystal will approach the inner wall of the thickener body under the influence of centrifugal force, and the overflow pipe will flow the clear liquid in the center of the thickener body through the overflow port into the next process, so that the overflow port position of the thickener is adjusted to the center of the thickener body, and the crystal content of the overflowed material is reduced; in addition, since the stirring rate in the thickener is low, the influence of the addition of the overflow pipe on the disturbance of the material liquid can be ignored.
