Technical Field
[0001] The utility model belongs to the technical field of chemical equipment, in particular to an activated carbon device for efficiently treating high-emission VOCs. Background Art
[0002] As an excellent adsorption material, activated carbon has always occupied an important position in the field of adsorption treatment. It shows extremely excellent adsorption capacity for organic substances in sewage and VOCs in waste gas, and can effectively purify sewage and waste gas, playing a key role in the protection of the ecological environment.
[0003] In many industries, activated carbon has been widely used. However, the existing activated carbon adsorption devices have exposed some problems when treating high-emission VOCs. Currently, one device usually performs adsorption work, while the other simultaneously performs desorption and drying and cooling operations. Since the adsorption time is equal to the desorption plus drying and cooling time, this makes the regeneration cycle very long. Correspondingly, the adsorption cycle is also lengthened. When facing VOCs with high emission concentration and large emission volume, the processing capacity of the same specification equipment is significantly insufficient, greatly restricting the full use of activated carbon in this field.
[0004] Therefore, there is an urgent need for an activated carbon device for efficiently treating high-emission VOCs that can reduce the adsorption cycle and reduce the input cost. Content of the Utility Model
[0005] The purpose of the utility model is to overcome the deficiencies of the prior art and provide an activated carbon device for efficiently treating high-emission VOCs that can improve the adsorption efficiency, reduce the adsorption time, and reduce the input cost.

[0031] Working principle:
[0032] In the embodiment of the present utility model, three activated carbon adsorbers are provided. The tail gas is adsorbed and discharged through the activated carbon adsorbers respectively. After adsorption saturation, steam regeneration is adopted, and then air is introduced by the drying fan 4 for drying and cooling.
[0033] First, the adsorption process is carried out. The first activated carbon adsorber 1 adsorbs first. The valve 7 and the valve 16 are opened, and other valves are closed. The tail gas is filtered by the filter and enters the first activated carbon adsorber 1 through the first pipeline for adsorption treatment. The purified gas is discharged into the atmosphere through the fourth pipeline and the chimney 25. When the first activated carbon adsorber 1 is saturated with adsorption, it stops working, the valve 7 and the valve 16 are closed, and the first activated carbon adsorber 1 is subjected to steam desorption; switch to the second activated carbon adsorber 2 for adsorption. The valve 10 and the valve 18 are opened, and the tail gas enters the second activated carbon adsorber 2 through the sixth pipeline for adsorption treatment. The purified gas is discharged into the atmosphere through the ninth pipeline and the chimney 25. When the second activated carbon adsorber 2 is saturated with adsorption, it stops working, the valve 10 and the valve 18 are closed, the second activated carbon adsorber 2 is subjected to steam desorption, and the first activated carbon adsorber 1 is dried and cooled; switch to the third activated carbon adsorber 3 for adsorption. When the third activated carbon adsorber 3 adsorbs, the valve 13 and the valve 20 are opened, and the tail gas enters the third activated carbon adsorber 3 through the eleventh pipeline for adsorption treatment. The purified gas is discharged into the atmosphere through the fourteenth pipeline and the chimney 25. When the third activated carbon adsorber 3 is saturated with adsorption, it stops working, the valve 13 and the valve 20 are closed, the third activated carbon adsorber 3 is subjected to steam desorption, the second activated carbon adsorber 2 is dried and cooled, and switch to the first activated carbon adsorber 1 for adsorption.
[0034] Next is the steam desorption process: When the first activated carbon adsorber 1 undergoes steam desorption, valves 8 and 15 are opened, and other valves are closed. Steam is transported through the fifth pipeline to the first activated carbon adsorber 1, heating the first activated carbon adsorber 1 to 100°C. Subsequently, the steam exits from the third pipeline and enters the condenser 5 for solvent recovery. The recovered solvent is sent to a designated location. After the steam desorption is completed, valves 8 and 15 are closed, and drying and cooling are carried out. Switch to the second activated carbon adsorber 2 for steam desorption. Valves 11 and 17 are opened, and other valves are closed. Steam is transported through the tenth pipeline to the second activated carbon adsorber 2, heating the second activated carbon adsorber 2 to 100°C. Subsequently, the steam exits from the eighth pipeline and enters the condenser 5 for solvent recovery. The recovered solvent is sent to a designated location. After the steam desorption is completed, valves 11 and 17 are closed, and the second activated carbon adsorber 2 undergoes drying and cooling. Switch to the third activated carbon adsorber 3 for steam desorption. Valves 15 and 13 are opened, and other valves are closed. Steam is transported through the fifteenth pipeline to the third activated carbon adsorber 3, heating the third activated carbon adsorber 3 to 100°C. Subsequently, the steam exits from the thirteenth pipeline and enters the condenser 5 for solvent recovery. The recovered solvent is sent to a designated location. After the steam desorption is completed, valves 15 and 13 are closed, and the third activated carbon adsorber 3 undergoes drying and cooling.
[0035] Finally is the drying and cooling process: When the first activated carbon adsorber 1 undergoes drying and cooling, valves 6 and 16 are opened. Air is transported by the drying fan 4 to the first activated carbon adsorber 1 to cool the first activated carbon adsorber 1. The hot air that comes out is discharged through the chimney 25 via the fourth pipeline until the first activated carbon adsorber 1 cools down to 40°C. When the drying and cooling of the first activated carbon adsorber 1 is completed, valves 6 and 16 are closed, and the first activated carbon adsorber 1 enters the adsorption process again. Switch to the second activated carbon adsorber 2 for drying and cooling. Valves 9 and 18 are opened. Air is transported by the drying fan 4 from the seventh pipeline to the second activated carbon adsorber 2 to cool the second activated carbon adsorber 2. The hot air that comes out is discharged through the chimney 25 via the ninth pipeline until the second activated carbon adsorber 2 cools down to 40°C. When the drying and cooling of the second activated carbon adsorber 2 is completed, valves 9 and 18 are closed, and the second activated carbon adsorber 2 enters the adsorption process again. Switch to the third activated carbon adsorber 3 for drying and cooling. Valves 12 and 20 are opened. Air is transported by the drying fan 4 from the twelfth pipeline to the third activated carbon adsorber 3 to cool the third activated carbon adsorber 3. The hot air that comes out is discharged through the chimney 25 via the fourteenth pipeline until the third activated carbon adsorber 3 cools down to 40°C. When the drying and cooling of the third activated carbon adsorber 3 is completed, valves 12 and 20 are closed, and the third activated carbon adsorber 3 enters the adsorption process again.
[0036] They work in sequence in a cycle. The three activated carbon adsorbers respectively perform adsorption, steam desorption, and drying and cooling, so that the adsorption time is equal to the desorption time and equal to the drying and cooling time, greatly improving the treatment capacity for VOCs.

Therefore, the scope of the present invention is not limited to the content disclosed in the embodiments and drawings.
