[0002] The composition of air pollutants is very complex and the sources are very extensive. Transportation, industrial production processes, domestic pollution sources, agricultural activities, and natural pollution sources, etc. will all generate air pollutants and greenhouse gases with different compositions, such as particulate matter (PM), volatile organic compounds (VOC), and carbon dioxide (CO2), etc. Among them, both VOC and CO2 are common pollutants in industrial processes and vehicle exhaust.

[0003] However, for the exhaust gas containing both volatile organic compounds and carbon dioxide, there is currently no device or equipment on the market that can separate VOC and CO2. This is because the condensation temperature of volatile organic compounds is relatively low and the required pressure is relatively low, while the liquefaction temperature of carbon dioxide is relatively high and the required pressure is relatively high.

[0004] Therefore, how to treat volatile organic compounds and carbon dioxide simultaneously is a technical problem that needs to be solved urgently. Summary of the Utility Model

[0011] Further, the primary condensation device includes: a first condensation chamber and a first condenser;

[0012] A first condensation pipe is arranged in the first condensation chamber; and

[0019] The second condenser is connected to the second condensation chamber through a pipeline to transport the refrigerant in the second condenser to the second condensation chamber.

[0020] Furthermore, the lower end of the second condensation pipe is communicated with the pressurizing device; and

[0021] An interface communicated with the recovery pipeline is further opened at the lower end of the second condensation pipe.

[0022] Furthermore, the gas treatment system further includes: a heat exchange device;

Since the pressure of CO2 is not enough, it still remains in a gaseous state, so as to separate and recover CO2 gas. By utilizing the characteristics that the condensation temperature of volatile organic compounds is relatively low and the required pressure is relatively low, while the liquefaction temperature of carbon dioxide is relatively high and the required pressure is relatively high, the functions of separating and recovering VOC and CO2 are realized.

Detailed Embodiments

[0035] To make the objectives, technical solutions, and advantages of the embodiments of the present utility model clearer, the technical solutions of the present utility model will be clearly and completely described below in conjunction with the accompanying drawings. Apparently, the described embodiments are some, but not all, of the embodiments of the present utility model. All other embodiments obtained by those of ordinary skill in the art based on the embodiments of the present utility model without creative efforts shall fall within the protection scope of the present utility model.

[0036] As Figure 1 shown, at least one embodiment provides a gas treatment system having the functions of condensing VOC and separating CO2, including: a primary condensation device 1, a secondary condensation device 2, and a recovery device 3;

[0037] The primary condensation device 1 and the secondary condensation device 2 are both connected to the recovery device 3 through a recovery pipeline 30; and a pressurizing device 4 is further provided between the primary condensation device 1 and the secondary condensation device 2; wherein the primary condensation device 1 is adapted to perform primary condensation on the waste gas, so that the liquefied VOC gas flows to the recovery device 3 through the recovery pipeline 30; and the uncondensed VOC gas and CO2 gas flow into the pressurizing device 4 through corresponding pipelines, and after being pressurized in the pressurizing device 4, flow into the secondary condensation device 2 for secondary condensation.

[0038] In some embodiments, by setting two-stage condensation devices and a pressurizing device 4, the VOC gas in the waste gas is condensed and pressurized and condensed into a liquid by a two-stage separation method, so as to be separated and recovered, while CO2 remains in a gaseous state due to insufficient pressure, so as to separate and recover the CO2 gas. By utilizing the characteristics that the condensation temperature of volatile organic compounds is relatively low and the required pressure is relatively low, while the liquefaction temperature of carbon dioxide is relatively high and the required pressure is relatively high, the functions of separating and recovering VOC and CO2 are realized.

[0039] In some embodiments, the primary condensation device 1 includes: a first condensation chamber 10 and a first condenser 11; a first condensation pipe 101 is arranged in the first condensation chamber 10; and the first condenser 11 is connected to the first condensation chamber 10 through a pipeline to convey the refrigerant in the first condenser 11 into the first condensation chamber 10.

[0040] Specifically, the first condensation pipe 101 arranged in the first condensation chamber 10 is used to provide a flow channel for the waste gas. When the waste gas enters the first condensation pipe 101, due to the refrigeration effect of the first condenser 11, most of the VOC gas in the waste gas is liquefied and flows out from the lower end inlet of the first condensation pipe 101 and flows into the recovery pipeline 30 to be collected by the recovery device 3, while the uncondensed VOC gas and the CO2 gas flow from the upper end outlet of the first condensation pipe 101 to the downstream pressurizing device 4.

[0041] Preferably as an embodiment, the temperature of the first condensation chamber 10 is controlled below -30°C, and the refrigerant flows through the corresponding pipelines in the first condensation chamber 10 and the first condenser 11.

[0042] In some embodiments, the upper end of the first condensation pipe 101 is connected to the pressurizing device 4, so that the gas is compressed under the action of the pressurizing device 4.

[0044] Specifically, the gas pressurized by the pressurizing device 4 enters the second condensation chamber 20 through the second condensation pipe, and thus is further condensed and liquefied under the condensation action of the second condenser 21. Similarly, the temperature of the second condensation chamber 20 is controlled below -30°C. The condensed and liquefied VOC gas flows into the recovery device 3 from the recovery pipeline 30.

[0045] In some embodiments, the gas treatment system further includes: a heat exchange device 6; the heat exchange device 6 is connected to the secondary condensation device 2; wherein the heat exchange device 6 is adapted to heat the gas flowing out of the secondary condensation device 2; and a gas collection chamber 7 is arranged downstream of the heat exchange device 6 to collect the heated gas.

[0047] In some embodiments, the gas treatment system further includes: a pretreatment device 5; the pretreatment device 5 is arranged upstream of the primary condensation device 1 to filter and adsorb water vapor from the gas before it enters the primary condensation device 1.

[0048] In summary, the gas treatment system of the present utility model with the functions of condensing VOC and separating CO2 sets two-stage condensation devices to perform two-stage condensation treatment on VOC and CO2 waste gases. By using the two-stage separation method, the VOC gas in the waste gas is condensed and pressurized and condensed into a liquid through condensation, so as to be separated and recovered, while CO2 remains in a gaseous state due to insufficient pressure, so as to separate and recover CO2 gas. By utilizing the characteristics that the condensation temperature of volatile organic compounds is relatively low and the required pressure is relatively low, while the liquefaction temperature of carbon dioxide is relatively high and the required pressure is relatively high, the functions of separating and recovering VOC and CO2 are realized.
