[0026] In order to solve the conversion of industrial by-product gypsum raw materials into building gypsum powder, it is necessary to calcine the industrial by-product gypsum raw materials in a fluidized calcining furnace. The fluidized calcining furnace fluidizes the bed by blowing an appropriate amount of air from the bottom of the main body. The existing fluidized furnace usually has a slag discharge and discharge port. Therefore, when a failure occurs during the operation of the equipment, it is not convenient to discharge the material quickly. Secondly, the heat exchange tubes in the existing fluidized furnace are single, which is not convenient for stable control of the material quality. Therefore, after research, a fluidized calcining furnace for by-product gypsum is provided. When in use, multiple slag discharge and discharge ports are designed on the air distribution plate to ensure fault handling during equipment operation and rapid discharge during shutdown. The knocking wheel is driven by the rotating rod to knock on the slag discharge pipe, which accelerates the discharge. Secondly, the partition plate is set to extend the running trajectory of the material to prevent fine particle materials from short-circuiting and being discharged from the discharge port directly, thereby avoiding the situation where the quality cannot be controlled. The device uses steam as the heat source and is equipped with multiple independent heat exchange pipelines. By adjusting the different pressures and temperatures of steam in different pipelines, the quality of different moisture contents and different raw material feed amounts can be accurately controlled, thereby solving the above-mentioned defects.
[0027] In conjunction with the accompanying drawings, some embodiments of the present invention are described in detail below. In the absence of conflict, the following embodiments and features in the embodiments can be combined with each other.
[0028] Please refer to Figure 1-Figure 5 The embodiment of the utility model provides a fluidized calcining furnace for by-product gypsum, including a shell 7, wherein a feed port 1 and a discharge port 16 are respectively provided on both sides of the upper end of the shell 7, and a partition plate 14 and a vertical steam condensation heat exchange pipe 15 are provided in the shell 7. The partition plate 14 divides the shell 7 into two chambers along the direction of the feed port 1 and the discharge port 16. The by-product gypsum raw material with an attached water content of less than 5% enters from the feed port 1 provided at the upper part of the left chamber, and flows into the right chamber along the lower part of the partition plate 14. The calcined material is discharged from the discharge port 16 in the middle and upper part of the right chamber.
[0029] In order to achieve fluidization, a Roots blower interface 13 is opened on the lower side of the shell 7, and the Roots blower conveys high-pressure air to the isobaric air chamber 10 arranged at the bottom of the shell 7 through the Roots blower interface 13. Since an air distribution plate 9 is arranged on the upper part of the isobaric air chamber 10, and a wind cap 8 is installed on the upper side of the air distribution plate 9, the air in the isobaric air chamber 10 enters the shell 7 through the small holes on the wind cap 8 and mixes with the by-product gypsum raw materials, and completes the fluidization of the by-product gypsum solid particle powder material, so that the solid gypsum powder material has the properties of a fluid.
[0030] In addition, a steam collector 2 is installed at the upper end of the shell 7, and a steam interface 3 is provided on the steam collector 2. An air exhaust valve 4 is opened on the steam interface 3. During the calcination process, gypsum will release a large amount of water vapor after high-temperature treatment. If these steams are not collected and processed in time, they may have an adverse effect on the temperature and pressure in the furnace, thereby affecting the calcination effect and product quality. The steam collector 2 gathers these steams through an effective collection mechanism to prevent them from interfering with the environment in the furnace.
[0031] A condensate collector 5 is arranged inside the shell 7, and a condensate drainage interface 6 is arranged on the condensate collector 5. An air exhaust valve 4 is opened on the condensate drainage interface 6. In the gypsum calcining fluidized furnace, the steam will be converted into condensate after cooling. If the condensate is not discharged in time, it may accumulate in the furnace, affecting the heat transfer and airflow distribution in the furnace, and further affecting the calcination efficiency. The function of the condensate collector 5 is to effectively collect and discharge the condensate to ensure the stability of the furnace environment and smooth operation.
[0032] Two sets of independent heat exchange pipe networks are arranged on the left and right sides of the partition plate 14 for the vertical steam condensation heat exchange pipe 15. The fluidized material is fully in contact and rubbed with the heat exchange pipe network, so that the by-product gypsum raw material absorbs the heat released by the condensed steam in the pipe. The by-product gypsum raw material that absorbs the heat is dehydrated, and the internal phase structure changes from the original dihydrate gypsum raw material to semi-hydrated building gypsum powder.
[0033] Among them, the two independent sets of heat exchange pipe networks solve the different heat requirements of gypsum raw materials at different stages when entering the gypsum calcining furnace. By adjusting the different pressures and temperatures in the heat exchange pipe network during the gypsum calcining process, the complete conversion of dihydrate gypsum to hemihydrate gypsum is achieved, and precise control of the production process is realized. The water vapor calcined from the raw materials is mixed with the air delivered by the Roots blower and then sucked into the dust collector installed on the top of the gypsum calcining furnace, and the dust is filtered out and then discharged to the outside.
[0034] A plurality of slag discharge pipes 11 are arranged on the lower side of the air distribution plate 9, and the discharge ends of the plurality of slag discharge pipes 11 are connected to the slag discharge port 12 opened at the bottom of the shell 7. For a small amount of large-particle materials and high-density sand, iron filings and other impurities that enter the shell 7 together with the gypsum raw materials, these impurities cannot be completely fluidized by the Roots blower due to their large mass, and the impurities are deposited on the upper part of the air distribution plate 9. A fixed bed layer will be formed over a long period of time, and the bed resistance will be increased so that the upper material cannot be completely fluidized. In order to avoid this situation, the impurities need to be discharged through the slag discharge pipes 11 and the slag discharge port 12 arranged on the air distribution plate 9. Secondly, when the device is shut down, the impurities can also be discharged from the shell 7 through the slag discharge pipes 11 and the slag discharge port 12, which cannot be discharged from the discharge port 16, to ensure that there is no material accumulation in the fluidized calcining furnace.
[0035] Furthermore, a fixed sleeve 17 is provided at the bottom of the shell 7, and a pair of rotating rods 18 are rotatably provided in the fixed sleeve 17, and a knocking wheel 19 is connected to the rotating rod 18. The two rotating rods 18 both penetrate the shell 7 and are respectively connected to the meshing gears 20, wherein the knocking wheels 19 are respectively located between the slag discharge pipe 11 and the slag discharge port 12, wherein one of the gears 20 is driven by a motor, and when the two gears 20 rotate and mesh, the two rotating rods 18 are prompted to rotate with the two knocking wheels 19, and the knocking wheels 19 knock the slag discharge pipe 11, thereby accelerating the discharge of the slag discharge pipe 11 and avoiding impurities from being retained in the slag discharge pipe 11.
[0036] In summary, a fluidized calcining furnace for by-product gypsum in an embodiment of the utility model has the following working principle: first, a by-product gypsum raw material with an attached water content of less than 5% is allowed to enter the shell 7 through the feed port 1, and air is sent into the isobaric wind chamber 10 by a Roots blower. The air enters the shell 7 through a number of hoods 8 arranged on the air distribution plate 9, so that the by-product gypsum raw material in the furnace and the by-product gypsum raw material entering the furnace are mixed, and the air fluidizes the gypsum raw material, and the fluidized by-product gypsum raw material contacts and rubs against the heat exchange pipe network arranged in the calcining furnace, and saturated or superheated steam of about 1.0 MPa is introduced into the heat exchange pipe network, and the heat released after the steam in the pipe undergoes condensation phase change is absorbed by the by-product gypsum raw material in contact with it, and the internal structure of the by-product gypsum raw material undergoes a change after absorbing heat, and the calcination is completed. The calcined by-product gypsum is discharged through the discharge port 16, and the calcined by-product gypsum raw material is building gypsum powder, and the heated air and the water vapor calcinated from the gypsum raw material are extracted from the top of the shell 7 by the dust collector.
[0037] The above are only preferred embodiments of the present invention and are not intended to limit the present invention. For those skilled in the art, the present invention may be subject to various modifications and variations. Any modification, equivalent replacement, improvement, etc. made within the spirit and principle of the present invention shall be included in the protection scope of the present invention.
