[0016] This section will describe in detail the specific embodiments of the present invention. The preferred embodiments of the present invention are shown in the accompanying drawings. The purpose of the accompanying drawings is to supplement the description of the text part of the specification with graphics, so that people can intuitively and vividly understand each technical feature and overall technical solution of the present invention, but it cannot be understood as a limitation on the scope of protection of the present invention.

[0017] Reference Figure 1The embodiment of the present invention is a drying system for terephthalic acid production, which includes: a crystallizer 1, a filter 3, a dryer 6, a condensate tank 7, and a beating tank 9. Two conduits are provided on the surface of the crystallizer 1, and the two conduits of the crystallizer 1 are respectively connected to the steam tubes of the filter 3 and the dryer 6. A dryer chimney 4 and a dryer feeding screw 5 are provided between the filter 3 and the dryer 6. The filter 3 and the dryer 6 are interconnected through the dryer chimney 4 and the dryer feeding screw 5. A conduit is provided between the dryer 6, the condensate tank 7, and the beating tank 9. The dryer 6, the condensate tank 7, and the beating tank 9 are interconnected through the conduit. The above devices cooperate with each other to form the basic structure of the drying system.

[0018] The conduit between the crystallizer 1 and the dryer 6 is a steam conveying passage, and the conduit between the crystallizer 1 and the dryer 6 is provided with a pneumatic valve. The steam conveying passage is used to control the dryer 6 to discharge the material to provide moisture, ensuring that the moisture content of the discharge of the dryer 6 is less than 0.2%. The crystallizer 1, filter 3, dryer 6, condensate tank 7, and beating tank 9 are interconnected through the conduit, dryer chimney 4, and dryer feed screw 5 to form a main conveying passage. The main conveying passage is the processing order of material processing. The conduit between the crystallizer 1 and the filter 3, and the conduit between the condensate tank 7 and the beating tank 9 are respectively provided with a filter feed conveying pump 2 and a condensate conveying pump 8. The filter feed conveying pump 2 and the condensate conveying pump 8 are used to provide sufficient feeding power for the material in the main conveying passage, thereby improving the working smoothness of the drying system.

[0019] The dryer 6 is a rotary steam arrangement type refining dryer, and the surface of the dryer 6 is provided with multiple concentric rows of tubes. Two dryers 6 are provided, and the two dryers 6 form a refining section. When the two dryers 6 are in operation, the steam consumption of each dryer 6 is about 15-20 tons / hour. The dryer 6 dries the PTA filter cake with a moisture content of 7.5% (w / w) from the filter 3 to make it into PTA powder with a moisture content of ≤0.2% (w / w), and then sends it to the product silo for storage.

[0020] Working principle: The crystallizer 1 is heated by introducing 0.45MPa process flash steam into the steam tubes of the dryer 6 through the steam transmission path to maintain the moisture content of the dryer 6 discharge material less than 0.2%, and the condensed condensate is recovered to the condensate tank 7, and then the condensate is transported to the pulping tank 9 by the condensate delivery pump 8, and the process water supply flow of the pulping tank 9 is reduced to maintain the water balance of the system. At the same time, the oxidation device reduces the output of the process water system, reduces the supply of desalted water, and reduces the external drainage of the device. The 0.35MPa steam saved by the dryer 6 can be used for power generation of the air compressor and supply of high-pressure steam.

[0021] The embodiments of the present invention are described in detail above with reference to the accompanying drawings. However, the present invention is not limited to the above embodiments. 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 invention.
