[0001] The utility model relates to the technical field of steam seal drain recovery of units, and specifically relates to a steam seal drain recovery system for units. Background Technique
[0002] In modern industrial production, the operating efficiency and energy utilization efficiency of steam turbines are crucial. During the operation of steam turbines, a large amount of steam seal drain and drain from the drain expansion tank are generated. Traditional treatment methods have many deficiencies. For example, on the one hand, these drains cannot be effectively recovered and utilized, resulting in waste of energy and loss of resources. On the other hand, due to the lack of a reasonable collection and treatment system, the discharge of drains will have a certain impact on the environment, which does not conform to the current development concept of green environmental protection.
[0003] In the existing technology, the function of the condenser water pipe pit is usually relatively single, and its potential value cannot be fully utilized. At the same time, the treatment of the steam seal drain of the unit and the water coming from the drain expansion tank lacks systematicness and integration, increasing the operating cost and maintenance difficulty. With the continuous progress of industrial technology and the increasing requirements of energy management, a new solution is needed to optimize the treatment and utilization of drains. This patent realizes the effective recovery and reuse of the steam seal drain of the unit and the water coming from the drain expansion tank by installing a drain collection box in the condenser water pipe pit, which not only improves the energy utilization efficiency, reduces the production cost, but also reduces the impact on the environment.

[0006] Further, a submersible pump is arranged between the drain collection box and the drain tank.
[0007] Further, a drain pump is arranged between the drain tank and the deaerator.
[0008] Further, stop valves are arranged between the submersible pump and the drain tank and between the drain tank and the drain pump.
