Description

Technical Field

[0001] The utility model relates to a bromine extraction distillation column system for deep waste heat recovery, belonging to the technical fields of salt chemical industry and waste heat recovery. Background Art

[0002] Salt chemical plants based on seawater salt production can extract substances such as bromine and lithium from seawater or concentrated bitter brine after salt production. The basic principle of the commonly used "air blowing method for bromine production by chlorine oxidation" is as follows.

[0003] Under acidic conditions, using chlorine as an oxidant, bromide ions (Br-) are oxidized to bromine molecules (Br2), and the ionic reaction formula is as follows.

[0004] 2Br- + Cl2 = Br2 + 2Cl-.

[0005] The free bromine is blown out by air, so it is called the air blowing method.

[0006] For acidic bromine production, sulfur dioxide is used as an absorbent, and fresh water spray is used to assist in absorbing the mixture of air and bromine. The absorption completion liquid is called primary acid, and the chemical reaction formula is as follows.

[0007] Br2 + SO2 + 2H2O = 2HBr + H2SO4.

[0008] The primary acid is introduced into chlorine for oxidation to re-free bromine and generate hydrochloric acid. The chemical reaction formula is as follows.

[0009] 2HBr + Cl2 = 2HCl + Br2.

[0010] Finally, bromine is distilled out with steam, and after condensation and separation, the finished bromine is obtained.

[0011] The process flow is described as follows.

[0012] Seawater (brine) is pumped to the blowing tower. Dilute acid and chlorine are added to the outlet pipeline of the pump. The mixed acidified and chlorinated brine sprays down from the upper part of the blowing tower. The blower blows air into the tower from the bottom. When the brine contacts the air, the free bromine in the brine is desorbed and blown out. The blowing waste liquid is discharged from the bottom of the blowing tower and enters the salt field for salt drying. The mixed gas discharged from the top of the blowing tower is sent to the absorption tower and is mixed and absorbed by sulfur dioxide and water mist. The formed completion liquid is called primary acid and is collected in the acid storage tank. The air purified by the demister is blown by the blower and enters the bottom of the blowing tower for recycling in the system. The primary acid is added from the top of the distillation tower, and steam and chlorine are introduced from the bottom of the tower. When the primary acid flows down along the packing from top to bottom, it contacts the chlorine and steam flowing from bottom to top, and is continuously oxidized and distilled. The mixture of bromine vapor and steam is discharged from the top of the tower, and after condensation and separation, liquid bromine is produced, and the crude bromine water returns to the absorption tower for continuous circulation.

[0013] Among them, chlorine gas is usually produced by vaporizing liquid chlorine through a water bath tank. The process method is as follows: Feed the liquid chlorine into the water bath bottle, and its upper nozzle is tightly connected to the chlorine gas clamp. Fill the chlorine gas water bath tank with water and use steam to heat the water in the tank. Control the temperature at 75°C - 83°C through a solenoid valve. This temperature range can achieve the vaporization of liquid chlorine and avoid the generation of nitrogen trichloride explosives. The vaporized chlorine gas is supplied out.

[0014] The preparation process of SO2 gas is as follows: Sulfur enters the sulfur combustion furnace through a distributor and burns with oxygen in the blown-in air at high temperature to generate sulfur dioxide gas. After air cooling and cooling by circulating water washing, the temperature is controlled below 70°C, and then it enters the blowing and suction tower for reduction absorption to produce the completed liquid for bromine production.

[0015] The bromine extraction and distillation process is as follows: After the completed liquid is preheated by the recycled liquid, it enters the distillation tower and is oxidized by chlorine gas. At the same time, steam distillation is carried out, and bromine is distilled out. The temperature at the top of the tower is controlled at 80 - 90°C. After condensation, crude bromine is obtained. The bromine-distilled recycled liquid is cooled by heat exchange with brine and then enters the collection pool, and then is used for brine acidification.

[0016] There are obvious energy wastes in the above traditional seawater bromine extraction process. For example, although a special heat exchanger is usually set to recover a part of the waste heat from the bromine-distilled recycled liquid discharged from the bromine extraction distillation tower, due to the very poor heat transfer performance and high cost of the original special heat exchanger, the amount of waste heat recovered is relatively small, so that the discharge temperature of the bromine-distilled recycled liquid is usually still as high as above 50 - 60°C, and the waste heat in its low-temperature section is still wasted in vain. At the same time, it leads to relatively more steam added, higher energy consumption and operating costs. In short, due to the strong corrosiveness and small flow rate of the relevant flue gas and discharged process water, a large proportion of various waste heat resources are wasted in vain, and it is necessary to recover and utilize them to achieve energy conservation and consumption reduction.

[0017] The purpose and task of the present utility model are, in view of the inherent technical limitations existing in the above seawater bromine extraction process, to adopt a highly efficient low-temperature deep heat recovery device with extremely high anti-corrosion performance to greatly increase the temperature of the completed liquid, thereby greatly reducing the steam demand and achieving energy conservation and consumption reduction.

[0018] The specific description of the present utility model is as follows: A waste heat deep recovery type bromine extraction distillation tower system is composed of an original bromine extraction distillation subsystem, a waste heat deep recovery subsystem, and their connecting pipelines and components. The original bromine extraction distillation subsystem and the waste heat deep recovery subsystem include a bromine extraction distillation tower 1, a bromine vapor exhaust pipe 2, a bromine vapor condenser 3, a waste liquid pump 4, an original waste liquid heat recovery device 5, and their connecting pipelines and components.

[0019] The high-efficiency low-temperature deep heat recovery device 6 adopts a high-efficiency graphene plastic tube heat exchanger; the original waste liquid heat recovery device 5 adopts a silicon carbide heat exchanger, a glass heat exchanger, and / or a fluoroplastic heat exchanger.

[0021] The heat pump host of the high-temperature heat pump steam generation device 7 adopts a single-stage voltage compression type high-temperature heat pump type and generates steam in series with an electric heater.

[0022] The beneficial effects of the present utility model are as follows.

[0023] (1)In the bromine extraction distillation process, both the completed liquid and the bromine extraction waste liquid are highly corrosive, which makes it impossible to use common heat exchangers for deep waste heat recovery. Currently, only materials such as silicon carbide heat exchangers and glass heat exchangers are commonly used. Their heat transfer performance is very poor, they are expensive and prone to damage, resulting in limited waste heat recovery. The waste liquid outlet temperature is usually still 50 - 60 °C. This patent uses new high-efficiency heat exchangers such as high-efficiency graphene plastic tube heat exchangers. The temperature difference at the waste liquid outlet end can be reduced to about 5 °C. Therefore, the waste heat recovery amount can be significantly increased, and the long-term safe, reliable and stable operation of the equipment system can be ensured.

[0025] (3)Furthermore, this patent uses a high-temperature heat pump to recover the condensation heat release of the bromine vapor and water vapor mixture and produce saturated wet steam at the 0.1 - 0.2 MPa level, which can be used as part of the heating source for the bromine extraction distillation tower, thus further reducing the demand for external steam.
