Description

Technical Field

[0001] The utility model relates to the technical field of waste heat utilization of synthetic ammonia and urea, and specifically relates to a waste heat utilization device for synthetic ammonia and urea. Background Technique

[0002] Synthetic ammonia is a colorless gas produced by reacting synthesis gas (a mixture of hydrogen and nitrogen) with a catalyst. The currently widely used synthetic ammonia process is the Haber-Bosch Process, which mainly includes four steps: purification of nitrogen, preparation of synthesis gas, synthesis of ammonia, and separation of ammonia. Urea is an important nitrogen fertilizer and chemical raw material, and is also one of the main applications of synthetic ammonia. The production process of urea mainly includes three steps: synthetic ammonia, urea synthesis, and urea refining. Synthetic ammonia: The production process of synthetic ammonia is the same as that described above. Urea synthesis: Urea synthesis is obtained by reacting synthetic ammonia and carbon dioxide. The reaction is usually carried out under high temperature and high pressure, and the catalyst generally uses ammonium carbonate. The synthesis reaction is relatively complex, mainly including two stages: dynamic reaction and equilibrium reaction. The urea solution produced after the reaction is evaporated, concentrated, and crystallized to obtain urea crystals. Urea refining: Urea crystals need to be refined to improve purity. Commonly used refining methods include steps such as washing, drying, and pulverizing. The particle size and purity of urea powder can be adjusted according to different needs.

[0003] In the process of synthetic ammonia production, it is usually made from oxygen and nitrogen under high temperature and high pressure, and its temperature is usually 300 - 500 °C. After production, it requires condensate for refrigeration, and the refrigerated condensate contains relatively high heat. In the process of urea production, it also needs to maintain a high temperature and high pressure state, and its temperature is usually 180 - 200 °C. After production, it also requires condensate for refrigeration, that is, both the ammonia synthesis and urea processes will produce condensate. This part of the condensate carries a large amount of heat, and this waste heat needs to be recovered for use by other heat users in the production system. In the traditional recovery process, most directly mix the high-temperature condensates of the two and conduct heat exchange with heat users to recover waste heat. This method has low efficiency, insufficient recovery of waste heat, and high waste of thermal energy. Therefore, there is an urgent need for a waste heat utilization device for synthetic ammonia and urea to solve the above problems. Content of the Utility Model

Detailed implementation manners

[0024] The technical solutions in the embodiments of the present invention will be clearly and completely described below with reference to the accompanying drawings in the embodiments of the present invention. Obviously, the described embodiments are only a part of the embodiments of the present invention, rather than all the embodiments. Embodiment 1

[0025] The technical solution provided by the present invention: A device for utilizing the waste heat of ammonia synthesis and urea includes an ammonia synthesis condensate storage tank 1, a urea synthesis condensate tank 2, a first heat exchange tank 3, an evaporation crystallization tank 6 and a third heat exchange tank 9. The first heat exchange tank 3 includes a tank body 301, a baffle 306, heat exchange copper pipes 307 and a partition board 308. A condensate feed inlet 302 and a condensate outlet 303 are respectively arranged on the upper surface of the tank body 301. An exchange medium inlet 304 and an exchange medium outlet 305 are respectively arranged at both ends of the tank body 301. The baffle 306 is fixedly connected to the inner side wall of the tank body 301. The heat exchange copper pipes 307 are fixedly connected to one side surface of the baffle 306. There are several heat exchange copper pipes 307 and they are evenly distributed in a circular array. The heat exchange copper pipes 307 are spirally distributed.

By setting the first heat exchange tank 3, the synthetic ammonia and urea waste heat utilization device has the effect of improving the heat exchange efficiency and effect. Through the combined setting of the baffle 306, the heat exchange copper pipe 307 and the partition plate 308, during use, the condensate whose temperature has risen during the synthetic ammonia preparation process is discharged into the interior of the first heat exchange tank 3 from the condensate inlet 302 and is located between the two baffles 306, and then discharged from the condensate outlet 303. During this process, after the condensate enters from the condensate inlet 302, through the setting of a number of partition plates 308 with notches 309, when the condensate flows inside the tank body 301, it flows in an S shape, greatly extending the residence time of the high-temperature condensate inside the tank body 301. Through the setting of the baffle 306 and the heat exchange copper pipe 307, a first fan 5 is installed at the end of the exchange medium inlet 304. After the first fan 5 pumps in air, at this time, the air will pass through a number of heat exchange copper pipes 307 to the other side. During this process, heat exchange can occur inside the heat exchange copper pipes 307, and the spiral heat exchange copper pipes 307 improve the residence time of the air inside the tank body 301, thereby effectively improving the heat exchange efficiency and effect. This device can better improve the heat exchange efficiency and effect between the high-temperature condensate and other media, thus achieving the purpose of facilitating the improvement of heat exchange efficiency and effect; Embodiment 2

[0028] In order to facilitate the full utilization of waste heat, as shown in the appendix Figures 1 to 5 As shown, the present application adopts the following structure. Through the setting of the synthetic ammonia condensate storage tank 1, the urea synthesis condensate tank 2, the first heat exchange tank 3, the second heat exchange tank 4, the first fan 5, the evaporation crystallization tank 6 and the drying tank 13, the synthetic ammonia and urea waste heat utilization device has the effect of facilitating the full utilization of waste heat. Through the setting of the first heat exchange tank 3 and the second heat exchange tank 4, during use, the high-temperature condensate flowing out of the synthetic ammonia condensate storage tank 1 first enters the interior of the tank body 301 through the condensate feed port 302, and the high-temperature condensate discharged from the urea synthesis condensate tank 2 also enters the interior of the second heat exchange tank 4. With the setting of the first fan 5, air is introduced from the left end of the second heat exchange tank 4, which can exchange the heat of the high-temperature condensate flowing out of the synthetic ammonia condensate storage tank 1 and the urea synthesis condensate tank 2 with the air, heat up the air and supply it to the drying tank 13 to provide energy for the drying process in the urea refining process. When the drying tank 13 is not working, the first fan 5 is also turned off. At this time, the high-temperature condensate discharged from the synthetic ammonia condensate storage tank 1 directly enters the interior of the urea synthesis condensate tank 2 to directly provide heat energy for the urea synthesis step in the urea synthesis condensate tank 2, and the waste heat that has been utilized can be directly discharged into the interior of the evaporation crystallization tank 6 through the high-temperature condensate discharge pipe 202, or the high-temperature condensate that has been heat-exchanged inside the second heat exchange tank 4 can also be directly discharged into the interior of the evaporation crystallization tank 6, which can be directly supplied to the evaporation crystallization tank 6 to provide energy for the urea evaporation crystallization process inside the evaporation crystallization tank 6. And the condensate after being utilized by the evaporation crystallization tank 6 still has a certain temperature. Similarly, the high-temperature condensate can exchange heat with the air pumped by the second fan 10 in the third heat exchange tank 9 and be supplied to the heat user for reuse through the heat user supply pipe 12. Other media can also be directly introduced at the second fan 10 and supplied to the heat user. That is, the waste heat discharged from the synthetic ammonia condensate storage tank 1 can directly provide heat energy for the urea synthesis condensate tank 2 and can also directly provide energy for the drying process of urea refining. The waste heat discharged from the urea synthesis condensate tank 2 can also directly provide energy for the drying process of urea refining and directly supply heat for the evaporation crystallization process, thereby achieving the purpose of facilitating the full utilization of waste heat.
