[0018] The present embodiment provides a device for producing sodium bisulfite by limestone desulfurization of flue gas, comprising a desulfurization tower 2, a limestone slurry tank 5, and a sodium sulfate dissolution tank 3. The desulfurization tower 2 comprises two upper and lower desulfurization sections, namely a primary desulfurization section 2-1 and a secondary desulfurization section 2-2. Three layers of desulfurization sieve plates 23 and a demister 27 are provided in each desulfurization section. An air cap 24 is provided between the two desulfurization sections. A process water pipe is connected to the same side of the primary desulfurization section 2-1 and the secondary desulfurization section 2-2, both of which are located above the demister 27. A primary desulfurization pipe 19 and a secondary desulfurization pipe 18 are provided on the primary desulfurization section 2-1 and the secondary desulfurization section 2-2, respectively. A primary desulfurization circulation pump 9 and a secondary desulfurization circulation pump 10 are provided on the primary desulfurization pipe and the secondary desulfurization pipe, respectively. The primary desulfurization pipe 19 and the secondary desulfurization pipe 18 are both connected to the limestone slurry tank 5 via a liquid inlet pipe 20, and a limestone slurry delivery pump 6 is provided on the liquid inlet pipe 20.
[0019] The sodium sulfate dissolution tank 3 is connected to the liquid inlet of the first-level desulfurization section 2-1 in the desulfurization tower through the liquid inlet pipe 21. The liquid inlet pipe 2 is provided with a sodium sulfate solution delivery pump 4. The first-level desulfurization section 2-1 is connected to the industrial flue gas pipeline 17. The industrial flue gas pipeline 17 is equipped with an induced draft fan 1. At the same time, the bottom of the first-level desulfurization section 2-1 in the desulfurization tower is connected to the inlet of the liquid-solid separator 11 through the liquid outlet pipe 22. The liquid outlet of the liquid-solid separator 11 is connected to the liquid inlet of the heat exchanger 12 through a pipeline. The liquid outlet of the heat exchanger 12 is connected to the sodium bisulfite crystallization tank 13 through a pipeline. One side of the sodium bisulfite crystallization tank 13 is connected to the cooling water system through a circulating cooling water pipeline, and the other side is connected to the second feed port of the liquid-solid separator 16 through a separation pipeline. The liquid outlet of the liquid-solid separator 16 delivers the saturated solution to the first-level desulfurization section 2-1 in the desulfurization tower through a pipeline. One side of the secondary desulfurization section is connected to the air inlet pipe, and the air inlet pipe is equipped with an oxidation fan 7.
[0020] The principle of the utility model is as follows: after being pressurized by the induced draft fan, the flue gas enters the primary desulfurization section at the bottom of the desulfurization tower, and contacts the sodium sulfate solution, a desulfurization liquid pumped out by the primary desulfurization circulating pump. Most of the sulfur dioxide dissolves and reacts with the desulfurization liquid. After the preliminary desulfurization, the flue gas passes through the demister and the air cap, enters the primary desulfurization section at the top, and further contacts the desulfurization liquid pumped out by the secondary desulfurization circulating pump. The sulfur dioxide dissolves and reacts with the desulfurization liquid. Finally, the flue gas is defogged by the demister and discharged in compliance with the emission standards.
[0021] Primary wet flue gas desulfurization:
[0022] The removal principle of SO2 is as follows:
[0023] SO2+H2O→H2SO3
[0024] CaCO3+H2SO3→CaSO3·½H2O↓+½H2O+CO2 ↑
[0025] CaSO3·½H2O+H2SO3→Ca(HSO3)2+½H2O
[0026] Ca(HSO3)2+Na2SO4+2H2O→2NaHSO3+CaSO4·2H2O↓
[0027] Secondary wet flue gas desulfurization:
[0028] SO2+H2O→H2SO3
[0029] CaCO3+H2SO3→CaSO3·½H2O↓+½H2O+CO2 ↑
[0030] CaSO3+½O2+2H2O→CaSO4·2H2O↓
[0031] In the limestone slurry tank, limestone powder is mixed with process water and delivered to the primary and secondary desulfurization sections via limestone slurry pumps. In the primary desulfurization section, limestone reacts with sulfurous acid to form calcium sulfite, which then reacts with sulfurous acid to form calcium bisulfite. Calcium bisulfite reacts with sodium sulfate to form gypsum and sodium bisulfite. In the secondary desulfurization section, limestone reacts with sulfurous acid to form calcium sulfite, which then reacts with oxygen to form gypsum. The gypsum slurry is then drained to the primary desulfurization section, mixed with the primary desulfurization slurry, and discharged together. The discharged slurry passes through Liquid-Solid Separator 1 to separate the gypsum and sodium bisulfite solution. The filtrate is cooled to 5-20°C in a heat exchanger, allowing the sodium bisulfite to crystallize. The sodium bisulfite slurry passes through Liquid-Solid Separator 2 to separate the sodium bisulfite crystals and a saturated sodium bisulfite solution. The saturated solution is returned to the primary desulfurization section, where the sodium bisulfite crystals are dried and packaged.
[0032] In the sodium sulfate solution tank, sodium sulfate is mixed with process water and sent to the primary desulfurization section through the sodium sulfate solution delivery pump to react with calcium bisulfite to produce gypsum and sodium bisulfite.
[0033] In addition to the above embodiments, the present invention may also have other implementation methods. Any technical solutions formed by equivalent replacement or equivalent transformation fall within the scope of protection required by the present invention.
