[0002] During the magnesium alloy production and melting process, solvents are added to the crucible. The solvent's primary functions are to remove impurities, protect the melt from oxidation, and promote grain refinement. The solvent typically contains chlorides, which decompose at high temperatures into hydrogen chloride gas, an irritating, acidic gas. This acidic gas can spread into the melting shop, corroding the building and equipment, reducing their service life and creating numerous safety hazards.
[0003] Currently, smelting workshops are equipped with ventilation devices on the roof to improve air circulation within the smelting workshop and reduce the corrosion of internal buildings and equipment. However, this method directly releases acidic gases into the outside air, which has an impact on the environment. Utility Model Content

[0035] The accompanying drawings are a preferred embodiment of the air post-treatment system for a smelting workshop. The present application will be further described in detail below with reference to the accompanying drawings.
[0036] Depend on Figures 1 to 7 As shown, a smelting shop air post-treatment system includes a spray assembly, a brine storage tank 18, and an alkaline solution supply tank 19. The spray assembly includes a spray tower 1, which is connected to a buffer tank 8 via an overflow pipe 7. The buffer tank 8 is equipped with a pH sensor 16 and a liquid pump 9 outside the buffer tank 8.
[0037] The liquid inlet of the liquid pump 9 is connected to the inner cavity of the buffer tank 8 through the liquid inlet pipe 10, and the liquid discharge port of the liquid pump 9 is connected to the spray device 5 inside the spray tower 1 through the liquid discharge pipe 11.
[0038] The drainage pipe 11 is connected in series with a first three-way valve 12 , and one outlet of the first three-way valve 12 is connected through a shunt pipe 13 , which is connected through a brine storage tank 18 .
[0039] The drainage pipe 11 is connected in series with a second three-way valve 14 , an inlet of the second three-way valve 14 is connected to a refill pipe 15 , the refill pipe 15 is connected to an alkaline solution supply tank 19 , and a supply pump 20 is connected in series with the refill pipe 15 .
[0040] The first three-way valve 12 and the second three-way valve 14 are both electrically controlled valves. An electrical control box is provided outside the spray tower 1, and a PLC electrical control unit is provided inside the electrical control box. The first three-way valve 12, the second three-way valve 14, the liquid pump 9, and the pH sensor 16 are all electrically connected to the PLC electrical control unit.
[0041] Exhaust gas extracted from the smelting workshop enters spray tower 1. Spray device 5 sprays an alkaline solution downward, reacting with and neutralizing the acid gases contained in the exhaust gas. The treated exhaust gas is free of acid gases and can be discharged directly into the atmosphere. The alkaline solution, after reacting with the acid gases, accumulates as a liquid at the bottom of spray tower 1. Once the liquid level rises above overflow pipe 7, it is discharged through drainage pipe 7 into buffer tank 8.
[0042] A pH sensor 16 installed in the buffer tank 8 monitors the pH of the solution. Based on the test results, the PLC electronic control unit adjusts the opening path of the first three-way valve 12 and the second three-way valve 14. If the pH value is greater than 7, the liquid pump 9 re-pumps the solution in the buffer tank 8 into the spray device 5 for reuse. If the pH value is 7 or less, the solution in the buffer tank 8 is discharged through the shunt pipe 13, and a new alkaline solution is pumped into the spray device 5 through the refill pipe 15.
[0043] Because the acidic gas in the waste gas is primarily composed of hydrogen chloride, in this embodiment, a sodium hydroxide solution is used as the alkaline solution, which reacts to produce sodium chloride and water. Therefore, the solution discharged from the diversion pipe 13 is a sodium chloride solution, which can be sold as an industrial by-product, reducing the cost of waste gas treatment and improving economic benefits.
[0044] The spray tower 1 comprises a tower body 101 with an open top. A cover 102 covers the top of the tower body 101. An air inlet pipe 2 is mounted on the tower body 101. An exhaust pipe 4 extends through the top of the cover 102. An induced draft fan 17 is connected in series to the exhaust pipe 4. The inlet end of the air inlet pipe 2 is mounted directly on the roof of the smelting workshop, where forced air is extracted by the induced draft fan 17. Alternatively, the air inlet pipe 2 can be connected to multiple exhaust pipes mounted above the smelting furnace.
[0045] In order to prolong the reaction time of hydrogen chloride gas and sodium hydroxide solution, in this embodiment, the exhaust gas inlet pipe 2 is lower than the overflow pipe 7, so that the incoming exhaust gas is located below the liquid level and is directly injected into the sodium hydroxide solution.
[0046] To improve reaction efficiency, a nozzle 3 is provided inside the tower body 101. A plurality of nozzle holes 301 are provided on the circular axial surface of the nozzle head 3. The nozzle head 3 is connected to the air inlet pipe 2. The nozzle holes 301 are arc-shaped and are distributed in a circular array around the axis of the nozzle head 3.
[0047] In this way, the gas ejected through the nozzle hole 301 is in a spiral shape, which has a stirring effect on the sodium hydroxide solution, thereby optimizing the reaction efficiency of the sodium hydroxide and hydrogen chloride.
[0048] To increase the spray coverage, the spray device 5 includes an outer annular tube 501 and several straight tubes 502 spaced apart in the middle of the annular tube 501. Spray holes are located at the bottom of the annular tube 501 and the straight tubes 502. Both ends of the straight tubes 502 are connected to the annular tube 501. A distribution tube 503 is located above the straight tubes 502. The end of the distribution tube 503 is connected to the end of the drain pipe 11. The distribution tube 503 is connected to each straight tube 502 via branch pipes.
[0049] A supporting device 6 is provided inside the spray tower 1 , and the spray device 5 is fixedly connected to the spray tower 1 via the supporting device 6 .
[0050] The support device 6 includes a support ring 601 and a clamping frame 602 fixedly connected to the inner side of the support ring 601. The support ring 601 is connected to the tower body 101. In this embodiment, the top surface of the tower body 101 is concavely provided with an annular groove, and the support ring 601 is clamped inside the annular groove. The annular tube 501 is clamped to the clamping frame 602.
[0051] The above describes the implementation methods of the present application in detail in conjunction with the accompanying drawings, but the present application is not limited to the above implementation methods. Various changes can be made within the scope of knowledge possessed by ordinary technicians in the relevant technical field without departing from the purpose of the present application.
