Description

Technical Field

[0001] The utility model relates to a preheating device, and more specifically, to a preheating device for concentrating sodium sulfite solution. Background Art

[0002] Sodium metabisulfite belongs to a chemical product at the front end of the industrial chain with low added value. In the current market business environment, how to reduce costs and increase efficiency has become a key issue for sodium metabisulfite production enterprises. One of the main raw materials of current sodium metabisulfite, soda ash, accounts for about 75% of the total production cost in the production process. Our company found in the production process that using the recycled sodium sulfite solution as a substitute raw material can effectively reduce the soda ash consumption, thereby achieving the purpose of reducing production costs and at the same time broadening the selectivity of raw material use.

[0003] During production, 15% of the sodium sulfite solution recycled in the production process needs to be heated and concentrated first. When the concentration is concentrated to about 40%, it is added to the causticizing tank and mixed with the soda ash solution for use. In order to improve the concentration efficiency, the solution in the recovery tank needs to be preheated before concentrating and heating. During the heating process, a small amount of crystals will be produced on the surface of the heating coil in the sodium sulfite solution, affecting the heat exchange efficiency. Currently, the heating coil is usually fixedly installed in the recovery tank, and the cover plate needs to be opened to enter for cleaning. This method is not only difficult to clean the heating coil, but also there will be a small amount of toxic gas in the recovery tank when the sodium sulfite is heated, affecting the safety of workers.

Detailed Embodiments

[0019] Refer to Figures 1-5As shown in the figure, a sodium sulfite solution concentration and preheating device of the present utility model includes a tank body 1, a cover plate 2 is provided on the tank body 1, a liquid inlet pipe 3 is provided on the cover plate 2, and a liquid discharge pipe 4 is provided at the bottom of the tank body 1; a plurality of through holes 5 are provided on the cover plate 2, and a detachable heat exchange module 6 is provided in each through hole 5, and a sealing component 7 is provided between the heat exchange module 6 and the through hole 5; a heating component 8 connected to the heat exchange module 6 is provided on the tank body 1. The liquid inlet pipe is connected to the sodium sulfite solution recovery system, and the liquid discharge pipe is connected to the heating and concentration equipment. Corresponding valves are provided on both the liquid inlet pipe and the liquid discharge pipe, which is common knowledge for those skilled in the art and will not be elaborated here.

[0020] By detachably arranging the heat exchange module on the cover plate, when cleaning is required, the heat exchange module can be directly disassembled and taken out, which is convenient for cleaning crystals, can effectively ensure the heat exchange efficiency, and there is no need for personnel to enter the tank body, which can ensure the safety of the cleaning personnel.

[0021] A negative pressure device for extracting the volatile toxic gas in the tank body and devices such as a thermometer for detecting temperature are also connected to the cover plate, which is common knowledge for those skilled in the art and will not be elaborated here.

[0022] In this embodiment, the heat exchange module 6 includes a stepped seat body 6a, and two cavities 6b are provided in the seat body 6a through a partition; a heat exchange coil 6c communicated with the cavity 6b is provided at the bottom of the seat body 6a, and a liquid supply pipe 6d and a return pipe 6e connected to the heating component 8 are respectively provided on the two cavities 6b.

This sealing structure is convenient for disassembly and assembly.

[0025] In this embodiment, the heating assembly 8 includes a plurality of brackets 8a arranged at the upper end of the tank body 1, and two annular tubes 8b are vertically distributed on the brackets 8a. The annular tubes 8b are installed on the brackets 8a through pipe clamps 8c, and the two annular tubes 8b are respectively connected to the liquid supply end and the return end of the external fluid heat source; the two annular tubes 8b are provided with hoses 8d connected to each heat exchange module 6 in a one-to-one correspondence; the ends of the hoses 8d are provided with connecting nuts 8e through threads. The heat exchange module is provided with pipes that match the hoses, which are the liquid supply pipe and the return pipe in this embodiment. The liquid supply pipe and the return pipe are both provided with threads that match the connecting nuts. The hoses and the heat exchange module are connected through the connecting nuts, which is convenient for disassembly and assembly.

[0026] In this embodiment, preferably, the cover plate 2 is provided with an inspection port 9, and a sealing flap 10 is hinged at the inspection port 9. The inspection port is provided to facilitate inspection and maintenance of the inside of the tank body, and the specific structure of the sealing flap is prior art and will not be described in detail here.

[0027] Further preferably, a cross beam 11 is provided near the opening end of the tank body 1, and a protective net 12 is provided on the cross beam 11. The protective net is provided to ensure the personal safety of the staff and prevent the staff from accidentally falling when opening the inspection port for inspection.

[0028] During operation, the sodium sulfite solution generated in the production of sodium metabisulfite is recovered and input into the tank through the liquid inlet pipe for temporary storage. The external fluid heat source transmits hot water or hot air with a temperature of 60-80°C to the heat exchange coil, and the sodium sulfite solution in the tank is heated to 55-60°C. The sodium sulfite solution is then transported into the heating and concentrating equipment through the discharge pipe for concentration.

[0029] When cleaning is required, first drain the solution in the tank and the fluid in the ring tube, loosen the connecting nut, remove the hose, and then pull the heat exchange coil out of the through hole.
