The lower ends of the supports 2 are higher than the bottom heights of the purification cylinder 1, the air cooling tower 4, the first water cooling tower 7, and the second water cooling tower 10;
[0024] A first solenoid valve 5 is arranged inside the first water supply pipe 6, and a second solenoid valve 14 is arranged inside the second water supply pipe 15;
[0025] An ash hopper 19 is arranged at the lower end of the purification cylinder 1, and the ash hopper 19 is located below the air guide pipe 18;
[0026] A discharge pipe 20 is arranged at the lower end of the ash hopper 19, and a control valve 21 is arranged inside the discharge pipe 20;
[0027] The opening of the air guide pipe 18 at the end inside the purification cylinder 1 faces upward. A top cover 22 is arranged above the air guide pipe 18, and the top cover 22 is connected to the inner wall of the purification cylinder 1 through a support rod;

[0029] A sealing cover 12 is provided at the inner opening of the upper end of the purification cylinder 1;
[0030] Based on the implementation steps of Embodiment 1: The air guide pipe 18 conveys air into the purification cylinder 1. When the air flows, it passes through the filter screen 16 and activated carbon. The filter screen 16 intercepts impurities in the air, and the activated carbon adsorbs harmful substances in the air to reduce the concentration of carbon dioxide, sulfides, and other gas impurities. The gas enters the air-cooled tower 4 through the first air supply pipe 3 and exchanges heat with the cooling water through the heat exchange pipes inside the air-cooled tower 4. The water after heat exchange flows back to the inner wall of the first water-cooled tower 7, and the first water supply pipe 6 conveys cooling water into the air-cooled tower 4 to realize the circulation of the cooling water. The high-temperature air conveyed after compression is cooled by the cooling water, and the cooled air is transported out through the second air supply pipe 8;
[0031] The liquid level sensors 9 detect the liquid level heights of the air-cooled tower 4, the first water-cooled tower 7, and the second water-cooled tower 10. When the liquid level height inside the air-cooled tower 4 is low, the signal of the liquid level sensor 9 is transmitted to the DCS control system 13. The DCS control system 13 controls the second water-cooled tower 10 to convey cooling water to supplement the air-cooled tower 4 with insufficient water level, playing a role of redundant compensation. Moreover, the opening degree of the first water supply pipe 6 is controlled by the solenoid valve 5 to adjust the water supply flow rate, so as to realize stable pre-cooling treatment when purifying the high-temperature air.
