Description

Technical Field

[0001] The utility model belongs to the field of environmental protection engineering, relates to a desulfurization treatment system, and in particular to a pH measuring device for a single-tower double-circulation desulfurization system. Background Art

[0002] The single-tower dual-circulation desulfurization system has two independent circulation loops, the absorption tower circulation and the AFT tower circulation, also known as the absorption tower external slurry pool circulation, which together achieve efficient flue gas desulfurization. In each circulation loop, the pH value of the slurry is a key factor affecting the desulfurization efficiency and product quality. Therefore, it is necessary to design and install a pH measuring device for real-time monitoring of the acidity and alkalinity of the slurry. In the prior art, the pH measuring device uses a large barrel-shaped circulation pool, which makes installation and maintenance inconvenient, and the fixed position of the pH meter probe will cause the slurry to enter without buffering and directly flush the pH meter probe, affecting the detection accuracy and resulting in inaccurate measurements. Summary of the Invention

[0003] The purpose of the utility model is to solve the above problems and provide a pH measuring device for a single-tower double-circulation desulfurization system, which can ensure detection accuracy.

[0004] In order to achieve the above-mentioned purpose, the utility model adopts the following technical solutions: A pH measuring device for a single-tower double-circulation desulfurization system, characterized in that it includes an AFT tower and an absorption tower, the AFT tower and the absorption tower are respectively connected to the ditch through a first slurry discharge pipeline and a second slurry discharge pipeline, the first slurry discharge pipeline is provided with a first circulation pool, the first slurry discharge pipeline between the first circulation pool and the AFT tower is connected to the first flushing and suction pipe through a three-way pipe one, the second slurry discharge pipeline is provided with a second circulation pool, the second slurry discharge pipeline between the second circulation pool and the absorption tower is connected to the second flushing and suction pipe through a three-way pipe two, and at least one inclined pH meter probe is provided on the first circulation pool and the second circulation pool.

[0005] The pH meter probes are installed at an angle on the first and second flow cells, respectively, to accurately measure the pH value of the desulfurization slurry in the AFT tower and the absorption tower. The design of the three-way pipe connected to the flushing and suction pipe allows for flexible flushing of the flow cells to maintain a clean measurement environment, reduce the impact of impurities on the pH meter probes, and improve measurement accuracy.

[0006] In the above-mentioned pH measuring device for the single-tower dual-circulation desulfurization system, a first slurry discharge gate is provided between the three-way pipe 1 and the AFT tower, and a first flushing water gate is provided between the three-way pipe 1 and the first flushing and suction water pipe; a second slurry discharge gate is provided between the three-way pipe 2 and the absorption tower, and a second flushing water gate is provided between the three-way pipe 2 and the second flushing and suction water pipe. The separate provision of the slurry discharge gate and the flushing water gate allows for flexible control of the slurry flow and flushing process. When the pH value of the slurry needs to be measured, the flushing water gate is closed and the slurry discharge gate is opened to allow the slurry to flow through the pH meter probe in the circulation pool; when the circulation pool or the pH meter probe needs to be cleaned, the slurry discharge gate is closed and the flushing water gate is opened, and the circulation pool is cleaned with flushing water, thereby maintaining the cleanliness and accuracy of the measurement environment. At the same time, the slurry can be prevented from flowing into the circulation pool when measurement or cleaning is not required, thereby reducing impact and damage to the equipment, protecting the pH meter probe from corrosion and wear, and extending its service life.

[0007] In the aforementioned single-tower dual-circulation desulfurization system pH measurement device, the first and second circulation cells comprise a cylindrical container body, each having an inlet and an outlet at the upper and lower ends, respectively. The inlet and outlet calibers are both smaller than the inner diameter of the container body. At least one inclined pH meter probe mounting hole is provided through the side wall of the container body, and the pH meter probe is sealed and fixed within the pH meter probe mounting hole. The angle α formed between the central axis of the pH meter probe and the central axis of the inlet is 45 degrees. The pH meter probe is connected to the pH meter probe mounting hole via a threaded structure, and a sealing ring is provided between the pH meter probe mounting hole and the pH meter probe. The cylindrical design of the container body makes it easier to place the container body in the designated position during installation. It also makes it easier to disassemble and inspect the equipment during replacement or maintenance. Furthermore, the smaller size results in a smaller capacity, which also helps increase the measurement frequency. The diameters of the inlet and outlet are both smaller than the inner diameter of the container body. This design helps to form a stable flow field inside the container, so that the slurry is more evenly distributed inside the container. Combined with the tilted pH meter probe, measurement errors can be reduced.

[0008] In the aforementioned single-tower dual-circulation desulfurization system pH measurement device, two pH meter probes are located axially along the vessel body. When the measurement results from the two probes are similar, the accuracy of the pH value can be further confirmed; if there is a discrepancy, it may indicate slurry stratification or uneven mixing, requiring appropriate adjustment measures. The dual-probe design also provides redundant backup. If one probe fails or measures inaccurately, the other probe will continue to operate, ensuring the system can continuously and stably monitor the slurry pH.

[0009] In the aforementioned pH measurement device for a single-tower, dual-circulation desulfurization system, the central axes of the inlet and outlet are aligned with the central axis of the container body, and the inner end of the pH meter probe is aligned with the central axis of the container body. This alignment of the inlet and outlet with the central axis of the container body helps maintain stable slurry flow within the container and reduces interference with pH measurement caused by uneven flow rates or eddy currents. The inner end of the pH meter probe is close to the central axis of the container body, and the pH value measured by the probe at this position is more representative, allowing the probe to more accurately reflect the overall pH value of the slurry within the container.

[0010] In the aforementioned single-tower dual-circulation desulfurization system pH measurement device, flanges for pipe connection are provided at both the inlet and outlet. These flange connections, using sealing materials such as gaskets or sealants, create a reliable seal at the joints, preventing leakage during slurry flow. Furthermore, appropriate piping and connectors can be easily selected based on actual needs, enhancing the system's adaptability and flexibility.

[0011] In the aforementioned single-tower dual-circulation desulfurization system pH measurement device, the inlet, outlet, and inner wall of the container body are all provided with an anti-corrosion coating. The slurry in the desulfurization system often contains corrosive substances such as sulfur dioxide and chlorides, which can cause corrosion to the equipment over time. The presence of the anti-corrosion coating effectively isolates these corrosive substances from direct contact with the equipment body, thereby slowing the corrosion rate and extending the equipment's service life.

[0012] In the aforementioned single-tower dual-circulation desulfurization system pH measurement device, the vertical distance between the first slurry outlet of the AFT tower and its bottom is 2-3 meters; the vertical distance between the second slurry outlet of the absorption tower and its bottom is also 2-3 meters. Sampling at this location better reflects the average condition of the slurry throughout the tower. Because the slurry has sufficient residence time and mixing within the tower, the sampled slurry is more uniform. The composition and properties of the slurry at this location are vertically consistent, thus enhancing the representativeness of the sample.

[0013] In the aforementioned pH measurement device for a single-tower, dual-circulation desulfurization system, the first slurry discharge gate, first flushing water gate, second flushing water gate, and second slurry discharge gate are each connected to their own electric actuator. All valves are connected to the electric actuators and integrated into the control system, enabling centralized control and unified management. This helps operators monitor and adjust the overall operating status of the desulfurization system in real time. Furthermore, remote control and automated operation are possible, improving work efficiency and safety.

[0014] Compared with existing technologies, the advantages of this single-tower dual-circulation desulfurization system pH measurement device are: 1. The circulation pool is small and modular in design, making it easy to install and maintain. 2. The sampling position is reasonable, and the measured slurry is uniform and highly representative. 3. The pH meter provides reliable measurement results and a long service life. BRIEF DESCRIPTION OF THE DRAWINGS

[0027] After the slurry enters the circulation pool, the pH value is detected by the pH probe 42 installed in the pH probe installation hole 45. After the detection is completed, the slurry is discharged into the trench 3 for recovery;

[0028] Afterwards, the first flushing water gate 16 and the second flushing water gate 26 are opened, and the cleaning solution flows into the first circulation pool 12 or the second circulation pool 22 through the first flushing water suction pipe 14 or the second flushing water suction pipe 24, flushing the container body 41 and the pH meter probe 42.
