[0019] The technical solutions in the embodiments of the present utility model will be clearly and completely described below with reference to the accompanying drawings in the embodiments of the present utility model. Obviously, the described embodiments are only a part of the embodiments of the present utility model, rather than all of the embodiments. Based on the embodiments of the present utility model, all other embodiments obtained by those of ordinary skill in the art without creative efforts shall fall within the protection scope of the present utility model.

[0020] Embodiment 1

[0021] Reference Figure 1, this embodiment provides a waste sulfur recovery device, including a recovery body 1 and a sulfur melting tank 2. Among them, the recovery body 1 is sleeved outside the sulfur melting tank 2. The sulfur melting tank 2 is used to hold waste sulfur. The inside of the recovery body 1 is filled with high-temperature steam. By sleeving the recovery body 1 outside the sulfur melting tank 2, the waste sulfur in the sulfur melting tank 2 can be heated to melt it into a liquid state, and then the obtained liquid waste sulfur can be filtered to achieve the recovery of sulfur.

[0022] A device support is arranged at the bottom of the recovery body 1 to support the recovery body 1.

[0023] Specifically, a feed inlet is opened at the top of the sulfur melting tank 2 for adding waste sulfur into the sulfur melting tank 2. The feed inlet of the sulfur melting tank 2 is located at the top of the recovery body 1. To ensure the sealing of the steam inside the recovery body 1 and avoid steam leakage, the sulfur melting tank 2 is selected to be hermetically connected to the top of the recovery body 1, thereby improving the heating efficiency.

[0024] At the same time, the feed inlet of the sulfur melting tank 2 needs to be closed when heating and melting the waste sulfur. It is selected to set a feed cover at the top of the sulfur melting tank 2. The feed cover is connected to the feed inlet to avoid heat exchange with the outside and reduce the heating efficiency.

[0025] Further explanation, a steam inlet 3 and a steam outlet 4 are opened on the recovery body 1. The steam inlet 3 and the steam outlet 4 are located outside the sulfur melting tank 2. The steam can be selected as water vapor. Saturated steam of 0.5 MPa or 1.0 MPa is introduced into the recovery body 1 to heat the solid waste sulfur in the sulfur melting tank 2, and the temperature exceeds the melting point of sulfur. For example, a temperature of 120 °C or higher can be selected. The water vapor generated during the factory operation can be used to improve the energy utilization rate and avoid energy waste.

[0026] During actual use, the steam flows in from the steam inlet 3, and after passing through the sulfur melting tank 2, heat transfer occurs with the waste sulfur inside the sulfur melting tank 2, so that the waste sulfur inside the sulfur melting tank 2 melts. The steam that has completed heat transfer finally exits through the steam outlet 4.

[0027] Since the steam will condense into a liquid after completing heat exchange, the steam inlet 3 is selected to be installed at the upper end of the recovery body 1, and the steam outlet 4 is installed at the lower end of the recovery body 1, which is convenient for recovering the condensed steam. At the same time, due to the low density of the steam, the steam continuously enters the recovery body 1 from the upper steam inlet 3, and then the steam is slowly pushed downward, thereby improving the full heating of the waste sulfur, increasing the heating efficiency of the waste sulfur, reducing the melting time, and improving the work efficiency.

[0028] At this time, a condensate control valve 8 can be selected to be installed on the steam outlet 4, and the discharge of the steam condensate is controlled through the condensate control valve 8 during use.

[0029] Furthermore, after all the waste sulfur in the sulfur melting tank 2 is melted, it is necessary to discharge the liquid sulfur containing impurities to facilitate subsequent processing. Therefore, a sulfur liquid pipe 5 is provided at the bottom of the sulfur melting tank 2. One end of the sulfur liquid pipe 5 is connected to the bottom end of the sulfur melting tank 2, and the other end of the sulfur liquid pipe 5 passes through the side wall of the recovery body 1 and extends to the outside of the recovery body 1. At the same time, a sulfur liquid switch valve 7 is installed on the sulfur liquid pipe 5 to facilitate the discharge of the melted waste sulfur and prevent the incomplete melting of the waste sulfur from flowing out.

[0030] Working process:

[0031] In actual use, first, high-temperature steam is introduced into the recovery body 1 through the steam inlet 3 to preheat the sulfur melting tank 2, and at the same time, the steam outlet 4 is kept open; then the sulfur liquid switch valve 7 is closed, and the feeding port of the sulfur melting tank 2 is opened, and waste sulfur is added to the sulfur melting tank 2 and the feeding port is sealed, waiting for the waste sulfur to melt.

[0032] After the waste sulfur is melted, the sulfur liquid switch valve 7 is opened again to discharge the melted waste sulfur, which is convenient for subsequent impurity filtration treatment, thereby reducing the cost of waste sulfur recovery and meeting the actual recovery requirements.

[0033] Embodiment 2

[0034] Different from Embodiment 1, the waste sulfur recovery device provided in this embodiment further includes a filter screen 6, and the filter screen 6 is arranged inside the sulfur melting tank 2, that is, the sulfur melting tank 2 is sleeved outside the filter screen 6.

[0035] The filter screen 6 can be selected to be arranged in a plate-like structure at the lower end of the sulfur melting tank 2. At this time, the filter screen 6 and the bottom of the sulfur melting tank 2 can be selected to be detachably connected. The cross-sectional shapes of the filter screen 6 and the sulfur melting tank 2 are the same, and the filter screen 6 is located above the sulfur liquid pipe 5.

[0036] The filter screen 6 can also be selected to be in a cylindrical structure. The top opening of the filter screen 6 is connected to the feeding port, so that the loaded waste sulfur can first be accommodated in the filter screen 6. The bottom of the filter screen 6 is located above the sulfur liquid pipe 5, so that the impurities contained in the melted waste sulfur can be filtered by the filter screen 6, thereby realizing the recovery of waste sulfur.

[0037] Among them, the filter screen 6 is preferably coaxially arranged with the sulfur melting tank 2 and the recovery body 1 respectively, and at the same time, the sulfur melting tank 2 and the recovery body 1 are also coaxially arranged.

[0038] The material of the filter screen 6 can be selected as S316L stainless steel, and the pore diameter can be selected as 0.075 mm, about 200 meshes, for filtering impurities such as carbon slag, aluminosilicate insulation cotton and stones in waste sulfur.

[0039] During actual operation, it is possible to choose to keep the sulfur liquid switch valve 7 open. After heating the waste sulfur in the filter screen 6, the melted sulfur passes through the filter screen 6 and falls to the bottom of the sulfur melting tank 2 and is discharged through the sulfur liquid pipe 5. After the waste sulfur is completely melted, the impurities on the filter screen 6 are cleaned to facilitate subsequent recycling operations and further improve the recycling efficiency of waste sulfur.
