Description
Technical Field
[0001] The utility model belongs to the technical field of tar-ammonia clarifying tanks, and particularly relates to an automatic tar discharging system for a clarifying tank. Background Art
[0002] A clarifying tank is a kind of primary cooler equipment for coke oven gas that separates coal tar, ammonia water and tar residue by using the principle of gravity sedimentation. The clarifying tank is equipment used by gas companies or coking plants to purify tar.

Inside the clarifying tank, it is divided into four layers: from top to bottom, they are ammonia water layer, ammonia water-tar mixed layer, tar layer and tar residue layer.
[0003] The deficiencies of the currently used clarifying tanks are as follows:
[0004] 1. There is no detection of the tar level in the clarifying tank, and it is impossible to know the height of the tar level in the clarifying tank. When the tar in the clarifying tank reaches a certain amount and cannot be discharged in time, the ammonia water-tar mixing surface will move up, and the tar content in the overflowing ammonia water in the upper part will exceed the standard, thus affecting the subsequent use of ammonia water.
[0005] 2. There is no detection of the water content in the discharged tar. According to the coking industry standard, the water content in tar should not be higher than 4%. Since there is no detection, the true situation of the water content in the discharged tar cannot be known, and it is easy to cause the water content in tar to exceed the standard.
[0006] 3. There is no detection of the flow rate when discharging tar. Whether the tar in the clarifying tank is completely discharged or not is operated depending on personal experience, which has uncertainty.
[0007] 4. It is necessary to manually drain oil regularly according to the production situation, which occupies labor costs and has low work efficiency. Content of the Utility Model

DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE EMBODIMENTS
[0030] It should be noted that the following detailed description is exemplary and is intended to provide further explanation of the present utility model. Unless otherwise specified, all technical and scientific terms used in the present utility model have the same meaning as commonly understood by those of ordinary skill in the technical field to which the present utility model belongs.
[0031] Embodiment 1
[0032] In a typical implementation manner of the present utility model, as Figure 1As shown in the figure, a tar automatic drainage system for a clarification tank is provided, including a tar pipeline 1, a thermometer 2, a moisture analyzer 3, and a pipeline flowmeter 6; the inlet of the tar pipeline 1 extends into the clarification tank 10, and the moisture analyzer 3 and the pipeline flowmeter 6 are installed on the tar pipeline 1; the thermometer 2 extends into the clarification tank 10, and multiple temperature measurement points are arranged on the thermometer 2; an electric valve 4 is also arranged on the tar pipeline 1, and the electric valve 4, the thermometer 2, the moisture analyzer 3, and the pipeline flowmeter 6 are all electrically connected to a controller; the temperature signal detected by the thermometer 2, the moisture signal detected by the moisture analyzer 3, and the flow signal detected by the pipeline flowmeter 6 are all transmitted to the controller, and the controller controls the opening and closing of the electric valve 4 according to the above signals to achieve the automatic discharge of tar.
[0033] In this embodiment, the height at which the tar pipeline 1 extends into the clarification tank 10 is the same as the height at which the thermometer 2 extends into the clarification tank 10, and multiple temperature measurement points on the thermometer 2 are evenly distributed in the vertical direction, with a distance of 10 - 30 cm between adjacent two temperature measurement points. Since the temperatures of the separated tar layer, the ammonia-tar mixed layer, and the ammonia layer are different, through the multiple temperature measurement points arranged by the thermometer 10, the temperature distribution of the tar pipeline 1 in the vertical direction in the clarification tank 10 can be measured, and the interfaces of the tar layer, the mixed layer, and the ammonia layer can be accurately grasped through temperature measurement, so as to accurately discharge the tar.
[0034] In this embodiment, the inlet of the tar pipeline 1 is separated from the bottom surface of the clarification tank 10 by a set distance, so that the inlet 101 of the tar pipeline 1 is located in the tar layer to ensure the discharge of tar. Specifically, the position of the inlet 101 of the tar pipeline 1 can be set according to experience, and the tar in the tar pipeline 1 is discharged through the outlet 102.
[0035] In this embodiment, a first manual valve 5 is arranged on the front side of the pipeline flowmeter 6, and a second manual valve 7 is arranged on the rear side of the pipeline flowmeter 6. Further, at the positions of the first manual valve 5, the pipeline flowmeter 6, and the second manual valve 7 of the tar pipeline 1, a bypass pipeline 8 is connected, and a third manual valve 9 is arranged on the bypass pipeline 8. By setting the bypass pipeline 8, the maintenance of the pipeline flowmeter 6 can be realized. During maintenance, only the first manual valve 5 and the second manual valve 7 need to be closed, and the third manual valve 9 is opened to enable the tar to be discharged from the bypass pipeline 8 without affecting the normal use of the tar pipeline.
[0036] Further, the electric valve 4 is located between the moisture analyzer 3 and the second manual valve 7, and the opening and closing of the electric valve 4 are controlled by the controller.
[0037] Furthermore, a U-shaped pipe 103 is provided on the tar pipeline 1, and the moisture analyzer 3 is installed at the outlet of the U-shaped pipe 103. The U-shaped pipe 103 provides an installation space for the moisture analyzer, improving the installation accuracy of the moisture analyzer.
[0038] In this embodiment, the clarification tank 10 is a container with a regular shape. An ammonia-tar mixture inlet 12 is provided at the top of the clarification tank 10, and an ammonia overflow port is provided at the ammonia layer of the clarification tank. The ammonia overflow port is connected to the ammonia pipeline 11. A slag discharge port is provided at the bottom of the clarification tank 10. The ammonia-tar mixture enters the clarification tank 10 from the ammonia-tar mixture inlet 12 and is divided into an ammonia layer, an ammonia-tar mixture layer, a tar layer, and a tar slag layer from top to bottom during the static settling process. Among them, the ammonia layer is discharged from the ammonia pipeline 11.
[0039] The working process of the automatic tar discharging system for the clarification tank provided in this embodiment is as follows:
[0040] The ammonia-tar mixture enters the clarification tank 10. Due to the different densities of ammonia and tar, after entering the clarification tank 10, the tar will settle to the bottom under the action of gravity, and the ammonia will float on the top under the action of buoyancy. The middle is the ammonia-tar mixture layer. Over time, the middle mixture layer continuously separates ammonia upward and tar downward.
[0041] Since the temperatures of the separated tar layer, ammonia-tar mixture layer, and ammonia layer are different, the interfaces of the tar layer, ammonia-tar mixture layer, and ammonia layer can be accurately grasped by measuring the temperature, so as to accurately discharge the tar.
[0042] During operation, the thermometer measures the temperature in real time. When it detects that the tar layer reaches the set height, the controller opens the electric valve to discharge the tar. At the same time, the moisture analyzer on the tar pipeline detects the moisture content of the tar in the pipeline. When the moisture content of the tar reaches 4%, the controller closes the electric valve and stops discharging the tar.
[0043] While discharging the tar, the pipeline flowmeter detects the flow rate. When the set flow rate is reached, the controller closes the electric valve and stops discharging the tar.
[0044] Among them, the moisture detection signal takes precedence over the flow detection signal to close the electric valve.
[0045] When the bottom tar is discharged in time, enough separation space and time are reserved for the ammonia-tar mixture layer, and the tar content in the ammonia will be controlled within the qualified range.
[0046] In this embodiment, the thermometer, moisture analyzer, pipeline flowmeter, and controller all directly adopt existing structures. Among them, the control methods of the controller are all realized by using existing technologies and do not involve improvements in computer programs.
[0047] The above are only the preferred embodiments of the present utility model and are not intended to limit the present utility model. For those skilled in the art, the present utility model can have various modifications and changes. Any modification, equivalent replacement, improvement, etc. made within the spirit and principle of the present utility model shall be included within the protection scope of the present utility model.
