For those of ordinary skill in the art, the specific meanings of the above terms can be understood according to specific circumstances.

[0028] Please refer to Figures 1 to 3 Figures 1 to 3 , a device for separating sodium acetate trihydrate from by - product sodium acetate, comprising a first tower body 100, wherein a first sieve plate 110 is arranged inside the first tower body 100, and a first mother liquor pipe 120, a first extraction feed pipe 130, a first extraction liquid outlet pipe 140 and a first mother liquor outlet pipe 150 are arranged on the first tower body 100. The first extraction feed pipe 130 is located below the first mother liquor pipe 120, the first extraction liquid outlet pipe 140 is located at the top of the first tower body 100, and the first mother liquor outlet pipe 150 is located at the bottom of the first tower body 100;

[0029] A second tower body 200, wherein a second sieve plate 210 is arranged inside the second tower body 200, and a second mother liquor pipe 220, a second extraction feed pipe 230, a second extraction liquid outlet pipe 240 and a second mother liquor outlet pipe 250 are arranged on the second tower body 200. The second mother liquor pipe 220 is communicated with the first mother liquor outlet pipe 150. The second extraction feed pipe 230 is located below the second mother liquor pipe 220, the second extraction liquid outlet pipe 240 is located at the top of the second tower body 200, and the second mother liquor outlet pipe 250 is located at the bottom of the second tower body 200;

[0030] An extraction liquid reflux tank 300, which is communicated with the first extraction liquid outlet pipe 140 and the second extraction liquid outlet pipe 240; and

[0031] A finished product tank 400, which is communicated with the second mother liquor outlet pipe 250.

[0032] The specific working process is as follows:

[0033] The by-product sodium acetate mixed solution is introduced into the first tower body 100 through the first mother liquor pipe 120, and the extractant (used to extract and separate impurities in the by-product sodium acetate mixed solution) is introduced into the first tower body 100 through the first extraction feed pipe 130. The by-product sodium acetate mixed solution and the extractant are mixed with each other. Since the density of the extractant is less than that of the by-product sodium acetate mixed solution, and the first extraction feed pipe 130 is located below the first mother liquor pipe 120, the extractant and the by-product sodium acetate mixed solution enter the first tower body 100 at the same time. When the extractant enters the first tower body 100, it will first fall to the bottom of the first tower body 100. As the by-product sodium acetate mixed solution enters, the by-product sodium acetate mixed solution with a heavier mass fraction will precipitate to the bottom of the first tower body 100, and the extractant will be exchanged to the top of the first tower body 100. Therefore, the extractant will make countercurrent contact with the by-product sodium acetate mixed solution in the first tower body 100. The organic matter in the by-product sodium acetate mixed solution and the extractant are dissolved in the extractant through similar solubility. The primary trisodium acetate solution produced after extraction is insoluble in the extractant. The primary trisodium acetate solution produced after extraction sinks to the bottom of the first tower body 100, and the extractant mixed with impurities formed again after extraction floats above the primary trisodium acetate solution. The primary trisodium acetate solution and the extractant are clearly stratified. Generally, after extraction, a stratified solution is formed. The bottom layer is the primary trisodium acetate solution layer, and the upper two layers are the extractant layers. As the by-product sodium acetate mixed solution and the extractant are continuously added until the entire first tower body 100 is filled, the lighter extractant layer at the top of the tower will flow out from the upper first extraction liquid outlet pipe 140 and enter the extraction liquid reflux tank 300, and the primary trisodium acetate solution in the tower kettle will flow out from the second mother liquor outlet pipe 250.

[0034] Through the pumping of the pump body, the primary trisodium acetate solution enters the second tower body 200 through the second mother liquor pipe 220, and a new unextracted extractant is added and enters the second tower body 200 through the second extraction feed pipe 230. The primary trisodium acetate solution undergoes secondary extraction in the second tower body 200 and forms a secondary trisodium acetate solution. The extraction effect is the same as the extraction method of the first tower body 100, and through extraction, a trisodium acetate solution with better purity and fewer impurities can be obtained. The extractant after extraction flows out from the second extraction liquid outlet pipe 240 at the top of the tower, and the trisodium acetate solution flows out from the second mother liquor outlet pipe 250 and enters the product forming tank 400.

[0035] The extraction solution in the extraction liquid reflux tank 300 is rectified to obtain the original extractant again for reuse in the next extraction. The trisodium acetate solution in the product forming tank 400 undergoes processes such as concentration and crystallization to obtain trisodium acetate.

[0036] Achieved effects:

[0037] By means of extraction, impurities in by-product sodium acetate are separated. Compared with traditional processes such as evaporation and crystallization for separating impurities in by-product sodium acetate, there is less sodium acetate trihydrate in the impurities of by-product sodium acetate, and the obtained sodium acetate trihydrate has higher purity, greatly improving the purification efficiency of purifying sodium acetate trihydrate from by-product sodium acetate.

[0038] In a possible embodiment, refer to Figure 2 , one end of the first extraction inlet pipe 130 is provided with a first extraction mixing tank 131. A number of first extraction branch pipes 132 are provided on the first extraction mixing tank 131, and a first flow limiting valve 133 is provided on the first extraction branch pipe 132. In Method 1, if a single extraction agent is used, one of the first extraction branch pipes 132 is used to introduce the extraction agent. The extraction agent enters the first extraction mixing tank 131, and the single type of extraction agent is sent into the first extraction inlet pipe 130 through a pump body and flows to the first tower body 100. In Method 2, if it is necessary to improve the extraction efficiency of by-product sodium acetate, two or more extraction agents are mixed and added into the first tower body 100. Therefore, by introducing different types of extraction agents from different first extraction branch pipes 132, mixing in the first extraction mixing tank 131, and sending the mixed extraction liquid into the first extraction inlet pipe 130 through a pump body and flowing to the first tower body 100, the extraction efficiency and the removal effect of impurities in by-product sodium acetate can be improved.

[0039] Specifically, the first flow limiting valve 133 is used to control the flow rate of the extraction agent in the first extraction branch pipe 132, and when the extraction agent in the first extraction branch pipe 132 reaches the standard amount, stop adding the extraction agent into the first extraction mixing tank 131.

[0040] In a possible embodiment, refer to Figure 3 , one end of the second extraction inlet pipe 230 is provided with a second extraction mixing tank 231. A number of second extraction branch pipes 232 are provided on the second extraction mixing tank 231, and a second flow limiting valve 233 is provided on the second extraction branch pipe 232. Uncontaminated extraction agent (i.e., unused extraction agent) is introduced into the second extraction branch pipe 232. The extraction agent added by the second extraction branch pipe 232 can be the same as the extraction agent added by the first extraction branch pipe 132 for secondary extraction to improve the impurity removal efficiency of by-product sodium acetate.

[0041] Specifically, the second flow limiting valve 233 is used to control the flow rate of the extraction agent in the second extraction branch pipe 232, and when the extraction agent in the second extraction branch pipe 232 reaches the standard amount, stop adding the extraction agent into the second extraction mixing tank 231.

[0042] In a possible embodiment, refer to Figure 1and Figure 3 , in order to improve the extraction efficiency, the by - product sodium acetate has better extraction efficiency under the heated state, and can further improve the impurity removal efficiency of the by - product sodium acetate.

A hot solution inlet is arranged at the bottom of the first heat exchange sleeve 160 near the tower kettle, and a hot solution outlet is arranged at the top of the first heat exchange sleeve 160 near the tower top. Hot solution, such as water with a higher temperature, is introduced into the hot solution inlet. The hot solution enters the heating cavity and fills the heating cavity, and then flows out from the hot solution outlet. A hot solution circulation can be formed by a pump body, and the hot solution is continuously heated, so that the temperature of the by - product sodium acetate in the first tower body 100 rises, thereby improving the extraction efficiency and purifying more sodium acetate trihydrate.

[0043] In a possible embodiment, a first heat preservation sleeve 161 is sleeved on the first heat exchange sleeve 160, and heat preservation cotton is filled in the first heat preservation sleeve 161. By arranging the first heat preservation sleeve 161, the heat preservation cotton wraps the outer surface of the first heat exchange sleeve 160 to prevent the heat of the hot solution in the first heat exchange sleeve 160 from being lost.

[0044] In a possible embodiment, refer to Figure 1 and Figure 3 , a second heat exchange sleeve 260 is arranged on the side wall of the second tower body 200. A heating cavity is formed between the second heat exchange sleeve 260 and the second tower body 200. The effect of the second heat exchange sleeve 260 is the same as that of the first heat exchange sleeve 160, which is to improve the extraction efficiency and purify more sodium acetate trihydrate.

[0045] In a possible embodiment, a second heat preservation sleeve 261 is sleeved on the second heat exchange sleeve 260, and heat preservation cotton is filled in the second heat preservation sleeve 261. The effect of the second heat exchange sleeve 260 is the same as that of the first heat preservation sleeve 161, which is to prevent the heat of the hot solution in the second heat exchange sleeve 260 from being lost.

[0046] In a possible embodiment, refer to Figure 2 and Figure 3 , a first pressure detection member 170 is arranged on the top of the first tower body 100, and a second pressure detection member 270 is arranged on the top of the second tower body 200. To prevent the pressure in the first tower body 100 from being too high, timely detection is carried out to improve safety.

[0047] In a possible embodiment, refer to Figure 2 and Figure 3 , a first manhole 180 is opened on the side wall of the first tower body 100, and a second manhole 280 is opened on the side wall of the second tower body 200.
