Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] The present application relates to the technical field of fluid oil removal, and in particular to a high-efficiency oil removal device. Background Art
[0002] Extraction is widely used in the extraction, purification, and impurity removal processes of hydrometallurgical production. It separates the target element from the impurity elements by exploiting the difference in their distribution coefficients in the extractant. However, this process places strict demands on the oil content of the aqueous phase, which not only affects product quality but also results in loss and waste of the extractant, leading to increased production costs.
[0003] Currently, the most widely used deoiling technology for aqueous materials in China is ultrasonic flotation for primary oil removal of entrained organic phases, followed by deep oil removal using adsorption columns (filled with activated carbon, resin, fiber balls, etc.). This direct deoiling method using ultrasonic flotation has the following drawbacks: Because the extractant and aqueous materials have relatively high viscosities at room temperature, the extractant often disperses in the aqueous material as fine oil droplets. During the aeration deoiling process, the oil droplets rise slowly under the action of microbubbles and are easily entrained in the aqueous material, resulting in poor oil-water separation and low oil removal efficiency.
[0004] The Chinese patent (publication number CN 220723699 U) describes an oil removal device that is divided into a feed zone and an oil removal zone along a front-to-back axis. A multi-stage baffle plate is provided in the oil removal zone, combined with aeration, to separate oil and water. However, this device does not accelerate the floating and aggregation of oil droplets in the aqueous phase. Furthermore, the oil layer in the oil collection area above the device is too thick and easily entrained by the aqueous phase under the dynamic action of the water flow, resulting in poor oil-water separation and low oil removal efficiency. Analysis shows that this patent does not constitute a high-efficiency oil removal device.
[0005] Therefore, the research purpose of this utility model is to design an oil removal device that can effectively reduce the entrainment of oil phase materials by water phase materials, thereby improving the separation effect of oil phase and water phase, and realizing efficient separation of oil and water.

[0037] It should be noted that, in the absence of conflict, the embodiments and features in the embodiments of the present disclosure can be combined with each other.
[0038] like Figure 1 As shown, an embodiment of the present disclosure provides a high-efficiency oil removal device, comprising a reaction shell 1, a heating and aeration zone 2, an oil scraping zone 3 and a membrane filtration zone 4. The reaction shell 1 comprises a first side wall 11 and a second side wall 12 arranged opposite to each other, the first side wall 11 being provided with a feed port 111, and the second side wall 12 being provided with a discharge port 121. The heating and aeration zone 2 is located on the side of the feed port 111, and is used to heat the feed liquid and provide micro-nano bubbles to accelerate the floating of oil droplets in the feed liquid. The oil scraping zone 3 is located at the upper part of the entire oil removal device, and is used to scrape off the oil layer on the fluid. The membrane filtration zone 4 is located at the lower part of the entire oil removal device, and is used to filter the residual tiny oil droplets from the scraped fluid. The fluid enters from the feed port 111 and passes through the heating and aeration zone 2, the oil scraping zone 3 and the membrane filtration zone 4 in sequence, and flows out from the discharge port 121 to complete the oil removal in the fluid.
[0039] Specifically, the reaction shell 1 is sealed except for the feed port 111 and the discharge port 121. A fluid, such as a solution of an aqueous phase material mixed with an oil phase material, enters the interior of the reaction shell 1 from the feed port 111. It then flows through the heated aeration zone 2, wherein the heated aeration zone 2 has the function of heating and accelerating. It first heats the fluid flowing through it, and at the same time provides micro-nano bubbles to accelerate the floating of oil droplets. The fluid then flows to the oil scraping zone 3, where the scraping action can be started for a long time or at a set time period, thereby scraping off the oil layer in the aqueous phase. The fluid then flows to the membrane filtration zone 4, where the residual tiny oil droplets in the aqueous phase are further separated. After two separations, the oil droplets in the fluid are separated, and the separation effect is good.
[0040] like Figure 1As shown, in the preferred technical solution of the present application, the reaction shell 1 further includes a third side wall 13 and a fourth side wall 14, first, third, and fifth blocking components 15, 17, and 19, and second, fourth, and sixth blocking components 16, 18, and 20, respectively. The first, third, and fifth blocking components 15, 17, and 19 are arranged on the fourth side wall 14 and do not contact the third side wall 13, and the second, fourth, and sixth blocking components 16, 18, and 20 are arranged on the third side wall 13 and do not contact the fourth side wall 14, so as to form a fluid channel from the feed port 111 to the discharge port 121. Figure 1 The direction of the zigzag arrow is the direction of fluid flow, that is, the location of the fluid channel.
[0041] Specifically, the reaction housing 1 is surrounded by four sidewalls: a first sidewall 11, a second sidewall 12, a third sidewall 13, and a fourth sidewall 14. The first, third, and fifth blocking members 15, 17, and 19, as well as the second, fourth, and sixth blocking members 16, 18, and 20, are all elongated. Preferably, the first, third, and fifth blocking members 15, 17, and 19, as well as the second, fourth, and sixth blocking members 16, 18, and 20, are of the same size. Both blocking members maintain a certain distance from the opposing sidewall to form a zigzag fluid channel, increasing the length of the fluid channel and thereby better achieving oil-water separation.
[0042] like Figure 1 As shown, in the preferred technical solution of the present application, the heated aeration zone 2 includes a heating device 21 and an aeration device 22. The heating device 21 is disposed on the third sidewall 13 between the feed inlet 111 and the first blocking member 15, and is used to heat the fluid entering from the feed inlet 111. The aeration device 22 is disposed on the fourth sidewall 14, and is used to generate bubbles that are adsorbed on the surface of oil droplets in the fluid to accelerate the floating and aggregation of the oil droplets.
[0043] Specifically, the heating device 21 can be elongated to increase the contact area with the fluid, thereby achieving rapid heating. The heating device 21 and the first barrier member 15 form the initial portion of the fluid flow channel. The aeration device 22 can preferably be located adjacent to the feed inlet 111 to aerate the fluid directly, facilitating the adsorption of generated bubbles on the surface of the fluid droplets. Preferably, the distance between the first, third, and fifth barrier members 15, 17, and 19 and the fourth sidewall 14 can be significantly less than the length of the first, third, and fifth barrier members 15, 17, and 19.
[0044] like Figure 1 As shown, in the preferred technical solution of the present application, the aeration device 22 is a micro-nano bubble generator, which generates bubbles with a diameter of 20-40 μm.
[0045] Specifically, the aeration device 22 includes a micro-nano bubble generator that can generate micro-nano bubbles to accelerate the floating of oil droplets. Bubbles with a diameter of 20-40 μm are preferred because they are more likely to adsorb on the surface of oil droplets, accelerating their floating and aggregation, and further improving oil removal efficiency.
[0046] like Figure 1 As shown, in the preferred technical solution of the present application, the heating device 21 is an electric heating device, which heats the temperature of the fluid to 40-60°C.
[0047] Specifically, the electric heating device is configured in an elongated strip shape, extending downward from the third side wall 13 to near the feed port 111, and being some distance away from the fourth side wall 14. Thus, a narrow fluid passage is formed between the electric heating device and the first blocking member 15, increasing the heating distance of the incoming fluid and achieving a good heating effect.
[0048] like Figure 1 As shown, in the preferred technical solution of the present application, the oil scraping area 3 includes: an oil scraping device 31, the oil scraping device 31 includes an oil scraping plate 311 and a motor electrically connected to the oil scraping plate 311, and the oil scraping plate 311 is arranged on the third side wall 13 on the opposite side of the first, third and fifth blocking components 15, 17 and 19 to scrape off the oil layer on the fluid when the fluid flows through.
[0049] Specifically, the oil scraper 311 can be positioned directly opposite the first, third, and fifth blocking members 15, 17, and 19. Furthermore, the oil scraper 311 can be designed to be wider than the first, third, and fifth blocking members 15, 17, and 19. The motor can constantly power the oil scraper 311, which can be used to regularly remove the oil layer on the surface of the aqueous material to prevent the oil layer from becoming too thick and being carried over into the aqueous phase, thereby deteriorating the oil removal effect.
[0050] like Figure 1 As shown, in the preferred technical solution of the present application, the membrane filtration area 4 includes a hydrophilic oleophobic membrane 41, which is arranged between the second, fourth, and sixth blocking components 16, 18, 20 and the fourth side wall 14, and is used to further filter residual tiny oil droplets when the fluid flows through.
[0051] Specifically, the hydrophilic oleophobic membrane 41 blocks and separates the residual oil droplets in the water phase, further reducing the oil content in the water phase material. The effect is more obvious after the oil scraper 311 scrapes off the oil layer on the surface of the water phase material.
[0052] like Figure 1 As shown, in the preferred technical solution of the present application, the hydrophilic oleophobic membrane 41 has a pore size of 60-80 μm, a thickness of 1.0 mm, and an air flux of 1700 L / (m 2 ·s) non-woven fabric.
[0053] Specifically, the material of the hydrophilic oleophobic membrane 41 is relatively flexible, as long as it can achieve the effect of hydrophilic oil filtration. And its size is also the same. In this application, the pore size is 60~80μm, the thickness is 1.0mm, and the air flow rate is 1700L / (m 2 The hydrophilic and oleophobic membrane 41 made of non-woven fabric of s) is the preferred size with the best hydrophilic and oil-filtering effect as proved by a large number of experiments.
[0054] like Figure 1 As shown, in the preferred technical solution of the present application, the rear sides of the second blocking components 16 can be arranged in pairs, respectively on the third side wall 13 and the fourth side wall 14 to increase the length of the fluid channel.
[0055] Specifically, in order to increase the length of the fluid channel, blocking components can be added in pairs. At the same time, in order to form a zigzag channel, the blocking components in pairs can be preferably arranged on the third side wall 13 and the fourth side wall 14 respectively.
[0056] Preferably, two pairs of blocking components are used on the rear side of the second blocking component 16, namely, the third blocking component 17, the fourth blocking component 18, the fifth blocking component 19 and the sixth blocking component 20. Corresponding oil scraping devices 31, that is, two pairs of oil scraping plates 311 and motors electrically connected to the oil scraping plates 311 are provided. Similarly, five more aeration devices 22 are added. Moreover, a hydrophilic and oleophobic membrane 41 is also provided on the fourth blocking component 18 and the sixth blocking component 20, respectively. The area where each aeration device 22 is located is an aeration area. The area where each oil scraper 311 is located is an oil scraping area 3. The area where each hydrophilic and oleophobic membrane 41 is located is also a membrane filtration area 4.
[0057] like Figure 1 As shown, in the preferred technical solution of the present application, the high-efficiency oil removal device further includes a post-oil removal collection area 5 , which is located in an area close to the discharge port 121 .
[0058] Specifically, the post-oil removal collection area 5 can temporarily store the filtered aqueous phase material, and the clarified solution can flow out through the discharge port 121 after precipitation.
