Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] The utility model belongs to the technical field of chemical production, and particularly relates to a cleaning device for a heater. Background Art
[0002] Polyferric sulfate is an inorganic polymer flocculant with excellent performance, and is widely used in the fields of water purification treatment such as drinking water, industrial water, various industrial wastewaters and urban sewage.
[0003] The process flow of concentrating low-concentration polyferric sulfate is as follows: the initial product liquid of low-concentration polyferric sulfate is pumped into the first-stage circulation loop by a feeding pump, after evaporation and concentration in the first-stage circulation loop, it is pumped into the second-stage circulation loop by a series pump, after being concentrated by the second-stage evaporator, the liquid overflows to the third-stage evaporator, after further concentration by the third-stage evaporation, the qualified liquid overflows to the transfer tank, and finally is pumped into the finished product tank by the transfer tank.
[0004] The existing polyferric sulfate production process uses artificial rutile mother liquor and concentrated sulfuric acid as the main raw materials. After the raw materials are mixed in a certain proportion, hydrolysis and polymerization reactions are carried out in a reaction kettle to produce the initial product liquid of polyferric sulfate. The initial product liquid of polyferric sulfate is then concentrated by a multi-effect concentration device to produce qualified polyferric sulfate liquid. This process can maximize the utilization of artificial rutile mother liquor, reduce the external discharge amount and the neutralization slag output. However, the total iron content of the initial product liquid of polyferric sulfate is relatively low and cannot meet the production index requirements, and qualified polyferric sulfate liquid can only be produced after concentration by a multi-effect concentration device.
[0005] However, the current multi-effect concentration device has the following defects in the actual production process: 1) Since the polyferric sulfate liquid has unstable properties, solid precipitates are easily precipitated during the concentration process, blocking the graphite holes of the first-stage and second-stage heaters and affecting the normal operation of the system; 2) During the concentration process, the first-stage heater uses the secondary steam from the second-stage evaporator as the heat source, and a small amount of liquid-phase polyferric sulfate in the secondary steam is easily precipitated as solid precipitates, blocking the shell side of the first-stage heater and affecting the concentration heat exchange effect; 3) In order to ensure the normal operation of production, it is necessary to frequently stop the machine, disassemble and clean the first-stage and second-stage heaters as a whole, resulting in a large amount of maintenance work, low equipment utilization rate, high operation cost, high labor intensity and very troublesome operation.
[0006] Therefore, there is an urgent need for a cleaning device for a heater to solve the above problems. Summary of the Utility Model
