Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] The utility model relates to a filtering device for fine particles of polyether polyol. Background Art
[0002] Polyether polyol is an organic polymer, which is obtained by polyaddition reaction of initiator (compound containing active hydrogen group) with ethylene oxide (EO), propylene oxide (PO) and the like in the presence of catalyst. Polyether polyol has a series of excellent physical and chemical properties, including good elasticity, wear resistance and chemical resistance, which make polyether polyol widely used in many fields. In the preparation process of polyether polyol produced by using diethylene glycol as initiator, a large number of fine particles will inevitably appear, which will affect the performance of the product. In order to ensure that there are no large number of fine particles in the polyether polyol product, a polyether polyol fine particle filtration device is required.
[0003] The conventional filtering method is to use a plate and frame filter. In order to ensure the filtering speed, filter aids need to be added. Due to the characteristics of the product, the material is easy to solidify at room temperature. After the filtration, it is necessary to use pure water to clean and blow the pipeline, which may easily cause residual moisture in the pipeline and cause the moisture content of the lower kettle to be unqualified. On the other hand, the filter cake formed by the product on the plate and frame is uneven, which may easily cause filter penetration. The filter mesh number of the plate and frame filter is 120 mesh, which is too low. It may easily cause repeated treatment due to unqualified potassium ion indicators and the presence of a large number of fine particles in the refined ether. These problems not only reduce product quality, but also increase the energy consumption of single-kettle production, reduce the output of a single line, and increase the extra workload of employees.
[0004] Chinese patent CN204447475U discloses a liquid pharmaceutical polyethylene glycol filtering device, which includes a filter bag, a tank body, a pressure gauge, a pressure reducing valve, and a quick-opening mechanism; the device is installed on a material pipeline, a filter bag is vertically installed inside the device, the space position in the tank above the filter bag is connected to the material inlet, and the material inlet is led out of the device body, a head is connected to the upper part of the tank body of the device, a pressure gauge and a pressure reducing valve are installed on the head, a discharge port is provided at the lower part of the tank body of the device, and the material outlet is connected to the material pipeline; however, the device is small, not suitable for large-scale industrial production, and has a low production capacity. Utility Model Content
[0005] The technical problem to be solved by the utility model is that, in the prior art, a plate-and-frame filter is used to filter polyether polyols, which will produce a large amount of fine particles, resulting in a decrease in product quality, an increase in energy consumption for single-pot production, a decrease in single-line output and an increase in employee workload. A filtering device for fine particles of polyether polyols is provided, which has the advantages of improving product quality, reducing production energy consumption, increasing single-line output and reducing manual operation load.

[0007] Furthermore, the candle filter 2 is provided with 17 to 20 evenly distributed filter bags 2-3; an overflow pipeline 2-5 and an overflow valve 2-4 are provided at the top of the candle filter 2, and the material fills the entire candle filter 2 before filtering; a material pulling pipeline 3-6 and a material pulling valve 3-7 are provided at the bottom of the candle filter 2, and the remaining small amount of material can be pulled back to the neutralization kettle 1 through the material pulling pipeline 3-6 and the material pulling valve 3-7.
[0008] Furthermore, the mesh size of the filter bag 2-3 is 800 to 1200 meshes.
[0009] The filtering process is as follows:
[0010] 1. Pure water is introduced into the neutralization kettle through the pure water valve. After the feeding is completed, the crude ether (the main components are diethylene glycol, catalyst and ethylene oxide) in the reaction kettle is received through the neutralization kettle liquid receiving valve. After receiving the liquid transfer, it is stirred for 1 hour. After the stirring is completed, phosphoric acid is introduced through the phosphoric acid valve for neutralization reaction. After the reaction for 1 hour, the vacuum pump is turned on, and the negative pressure is started by adjusting the vacuum regulating valve. At the same time, the adsorbent is poured into the adsorbent feeding tank. The negative pressure puts the adsorbent into the neutralization kettle. After the feeding is completed, it is stirred for 0.5 hour.
[0011] 2. After refining is completed, turn on the material circulation pump, and the control panel starts the liquid inlet program.

[0012] 3. Start the normal filtering procedure, close the filter circulation valve, and filter the material through the filter element valve and filter valve to the tank of the day.
[0013] 4.

[0014] 5. Start the drying program, open the purge filter bag valve to fill with nitrogen, purge the filter element valve and the filter circulation valve, purge the filter circulation pipeline and the material in the filter bag back to the neutralization kettle. After the drying program is completed for 10 minutes, unload the filter pressure to 0.01Mpa, and then open the slag discharge bottom valve to discharge the slag.
[0015] The utility model provides a filtering device for fine particles of polyether polyols. Crude ether is pumped into a neutralization kettle from a reaction kettle, reacts with pure water, phosphoric acid and an adsorbent in the neutralization kettle, a discharge pipeline of the neutralization kettle is connected to the bottom of a candle filter, and the polyether polyols are filtered and discharged in the candle filter.
