Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] The utility model relates to the technical field of material discharging in the chemical industry, and particularly relates to a safe material discharging system. Background Art
[0002] In the current chemical production field, a large number of various materials are generated during both the normal operation stage of equipment and large-scale overhaul and maintenance periods. A large part of these materials is highly volatile and often contains toxic components. When these highly volatile and toxic materials are not properly treated and directly volatilize into the air, it poses a serious threat to the health of operators, and long-term exposure may lead to serious health problems. At the same time, when these volatile organic compounds (VOCs) escape into the atmosphere in the form of gas, it will also cause irreversible damage to the natural environment, affect air quality, and exacerbate environmental problems such as global warming. Therefore, how to achieve safe and environmentally friendly material discharging in the chemical production process has become an important issue that needs to be solved urgently.
[0003] In the existing technical practice, the material discharging process is usually achieved by connecting the discharging port to a closed discharge system. The discharging port is sealed with one or two valves to ensure minimizing material leakage during the discharging process. These valves are connected to an underground dirty oil tank through pipelines, and the underground dirty oil tank is further sealed with nitrogen and connected to a flare system to handle the possible harmful gases. However, although this design improves the safety of the material discharging process to a certain extent, there are still many potential safety hazards and deficiencies in actual operation.
[0004] Firstly, when the operator opens the valve of the discharging port for material discharging, due to the high pressure or fluidity of the material, it is extremely easy to occur a spraying accident, causing material splashing and environmental pollution. Secondly, once the valve of the discharging port is opened, the pipeline connecting to the underground dirty oil tank will be directly exposed to the atmosphere, which not only increases the risk of an explosive environment but may also cause a fire or explosion accident due to electrostatic discharge and other reasons. Thirdly, if the operator forgets to close the valve after the material discharging is completed and the pump continues to work, it will cause the material to spray out at the discharging port, further exacerbating the potential safety hazard.

[0020] Second, the electrostatic eliminator and the static grounding wire of the pump body are provided in the present utility model, which effectively eliminates the static electricity generated during the operation of the operator and the pneumatic pump, and reduces the risk of fire or explosion caused by static electricity discharge.

[0029] The working process of a safety material return system of the present utility model is as follows:
[0030] Push the mobile cart 6 near the material bucket 3 to be unloaded, and use the braking device to lock the universal wheels 7 and directional wheels 8 to ensure the stability of the cart during the unloading process.
[0031] Check whether the nitrogen source is sufficient, and ensure that the connection between the nitrogen interface 4 and the pneumatic pump 5 is leak-free. Touch the static eliminator 1 to eliminate the static electricity of the operator and ensure the operation safety.

If any abnormal situations are found, such as abnormal pressure increase, material leakage, etc., the unloading should be stopped immediately, the cause should be checked, and the operation can be continued after troubleshooting.
[0037] When the material is completely unloaded into the underground waste oil tank 18, close the nitrogen source valve and stop the operation of the pneumatic pump. Close the root valve 16 at the unloading port to ensure the sealing between the dense row pipeline 9 and the underground waste oil tank 18. Disconnect each connecting component, clean the site, and ensure that there is no material residue and safety hazard. Further process or recycle the material in the underground waste oil tank 18 as needed.
[0038] Regularly discharge the combustible gas in the underground waste oil tank 18 for combustion treatment, and regularly introduce protective gases such as nitrogen into the underground waste oil tank 18. Regularly maintain and service the system, check the wear condition and connection tightness of each component, and ensure the long-term stable operation of the system.
