Description

Technical Field

[0001] The utility model belongs to the technical field of high-salt wastewater treatment, in particular to a forced circulation evaporation device for treating high-salt wastewater. Background Art

[0002] Common salts in high-salt wastewater include sodium chloride, potassium chloride, ammonium sulfate, etc., and usually contain a certain amount of COD and other impurities. They are basically treated by evaporation crystallization and salt precipitation. High-salt wastewater is gradually evaporated in the evaporation crystallizer, and the COD and other impurity contents in the wastewater gradually increase, resulting in smaller and smaller salt crystals, lower salt quality, and higher boiling points. Regardless of the particle size, once the salt crystals in the evaporation crystallizer fall into the salt legs, they can no longer return to the crystallization area and can no longer continue to grow. They can only go to the thickener for centrifugal separation, which leads to increased thermal resistance of the heat exchanger fouling and decreased evaporation efficiency, which is manifested as steaming failure. In severe cases, the salt crystals are too small to be separated by the centrifuge, causing production to stop. A more effective way is to continuously extract COD and other impurities to achieve stable operation of the system and normal growth of crystals. However, the discharge of a large amount of mother liquor undoubtedly increases the disposal cost and risk. Utility Model Content

[0019] The utility model is a forced circulation evaporation device for treating high-salt wastewater when in use. The saturated materials such as evaporation feed or reflux mother liquor are pumped into the salt leg 4 through the circulation pump 3. The saturated materials are heated by the first heater 2 during the pumping process. The salt crystals in the salt leg 4 are subjected to countercurrent flotation by the heated saturated superheated materials.

At this time, the salt crystals that meet the target particle size can be transported out through the salt discharge port at the bottom of the salt leg 4; the mother liquor washing flow is controlled by the valve to adjust the liquid level and the concentration difference of the salt leg 4, thereby increasing the circulating concentration of COD in the large system and reducing the amount of mother liquor discharged, so as to achieve an increase in the system concentration multiple; during production, the discharge valve 10 on the mother liquor discharge pipe 9 can be opened intermittently or continuously according to actual conditions, and a small amount of high-concentration COD and other impurities can be discharged in combination with flow control, thereby greatly shortening the cleaning cycle of the crystallizer 1.

[0020] In one embodiment, the forced circulation evaporation device for treating high-salinity wastewater of the present invention further includes a second heater 13, which is disposed on the fourth delivery pipe 8 between the second feed pipe 12 and the circulation pump 3. This dual heater arrangement improves the superheat of the single pipe, enhances the fine crystal elimination function, and maximizes evaporation efficiency through clear liquid circulation.

[0021] In one embodiment, a first sight glass 14 and a second sight glass 15 are provided on the side wall of the salt leg 4. The height of the second sight glass 15 is higher than that of the first sight glass 14. The interior of the salt leg 4 can be observed through the first sight glass 14 and the second sight glass 15, so as to facilitate adjustment of the upward flow rate of the material in the salt leg 4.

[0022] In one embodiment, a feed elutriation valve 16 is provided on the first feed pipe 11, and an anti-sedimentation elutriation valve 17 is provided on the third delivery pipe 7.
