Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] The utility model relates to the technical field of acid regeneration, in particular to a waste heat energy-saving device for an acid regeneration unit. Background Art
[0002] In an acid regeneration unit, when the hot air generated by a burner heats the central area of a roasting furnace to 500 - 800 °C, the pre-concentrated acid sprayed from the top of the furnace is decomposed to generate substances such as hydrochloric acid and iron(III) oxide. The flue gas flows along a pipeline at the top of the roasting furnace, enters a separator and then a pre-concentrator. The flue gas of the pre-concentrator directly enters an absorption tower through a pipeline. This part of the flue gas at a relatively high temperature passes through the absorption tower and a scrubbing tower and is finally discharged into the atmosphere.
