Description
Technical Field
[0001] The utility model relates to the technical field of coal gas primary coolers, in particular to an anti-clogging coal gas primary cooler. Background Art
[0002] After cooling through the gas collecting pipe, coke oven gas remains at a high temperature and contains significant amounts of harmful substances such as ammonia and naphthalene. A cooler is required for initial purification and to further reduce the gas dew point, facilitating stable operation of subsequent gas purification equipment. The 80-82°C coke oven gas is separated along the gas intake pipeline by a gas-liquid separator before entering the top of a horizontal tube primary gas cooler. After cooling to 21-22°C, the gas enters an electrostatic precipitator to remove tar mist and undergo further gas purification.
[0003] Existing pre-coolers use a cleaning fluid to flush impurities such as tar and naphthalene from the outer walls of the heat exchange tubes at the top of the pre-cooler, effectively cooling the gas within the pre-cooler. However, with the increasing size of coke ovens and changes in coal loading methods, the uneven distribution of gas inlets caused by the larger pre-cooler has reduced heat exchange efficiency and increased pulverized coal in the gas, leading to severe blockage in the pre-cooler and affecting its operation.

[0033] like Figure 1-3 As shown, an anti-clogging gas primary cooler is a vertical structure, which includes a gas washing section 1, a low-temperature water section 2, a circulating water section 3 and a gas equalization section 4 fixedly connected from bottom to top, and also includes an ammonia water tank 5 connected to the gas washing section pipeline.

Ammonia spray pipes 17 are located between the baffles 16. These pipes are equipped with nozzles 110, which are anti-clogging nozzles and ensure stable operation of the ammonia spray system. In this embodiment, four ammonia spray pipes 17 are provided. These nozzles 110 evenly spray the ammonia onto the coal gas, removing impurities such as coal dust entrained in the gas.
[0038] Insulation material 19 is installed beneath horizontal partition 14 to prevent the ammonia temperature from affecting the cleaning fluid and gas temperatures. Gas entering through gas inlet 15 is deflected by baffle 16 at the bottom of the precooler, where it continuously comes into contact with the sprayed ammonia. After some impurities are removed, the gas enters gas connection pipe 6 through gas outlet 18.
[0039] The gas evenly distributing section 4 is located at the top of the primary cooler. The main body of the gas evenly distributing section 4 comprises a rectangular cylinder. The front side plate of the rectangular cylinder is provided with a spray liquid inlet 41. The cover plate is fixed to the top of the rectangular cylinder.
[0040] The gas distribution section 4 includes a horizontal main pipe 42 located at the center above the cover plate. In this embodiment, two branch pipes 43 are provided on each side of the main pipe 42. The top of the main pipe 42 is aligned with the top of the branch pipes 43.

[0044] The axis of the cylinder 52 is horizontal, the left head 54 and the right head 55 are fixedly connected to the left and right ends of the cylinder 52, and the support is fixedly connected to the bottom of the cylinder 52 to support the cylinder.
[0045] The first ammonia inlet 51 is fixed to the left end cap 54 and is connected to the ammonia outlet 113 via a pipeline. The first ammonia inlet 51 is lower than the ammonia outlet 113. The second ammonia inlet 53 is connected to the ammonia pipeline and is supplied with supplementary ammonia from the tank area.
[0046] Ammonia outlet 56 is fixed to the lower portion of right end cap 55 and is connected to ammonia spray pipe 17. Ammonia pump 58 is mounted on the pipe connecting ammonia outlet 56 and ammonia spray pipe 17. A vertical partition 57 is fixed to the inner wall of cylinder 52, located in the middle. Vents 59 are provided on either side of vertical partition 57 and are fixed to the bottom of the outer wall of cylinder 52.
[0047] The first ammonia inlet 51 is connected to the ammonia outlet 113. Ammonia, carrying impurities such as pulverized coal, enters the ammonia tank 5 from the precooler and is deposited on the left side of the vertical partition 57. After the impurities are deposited at the bottom, they are sent to the tar-ammonia separation section via the left vent 59. Ammonia at the top flows to the right side of the vertical partition 57 and is pumped by the ammonia pump 58 to the ammonia spray pipe 17 for recycling. The sediment at the bottom is sent to the tar-ammonia separation section via the right vent 59. The second ammonia inlet 5 receives supplemental ammonia from the tank area to meet the required circulating spraying volume.
[0048] The working principle and working process of this utility model are as follows:
[0049] The coal gas passing through the coal gas inlet 15 is diverted through the baffle 16 at the bottom of the primary cooler. The baffles 16 are arranged in an alternating pattern. Ammonia spraying pipes 17 are provided between the baffles 16. The spraying pipes are provided with nozzles 110. Ammonia is evenly sprayed onto the coal gas to remove impurities such as coal powder entrained in the coal gas.
[0050] The gas, with some impurities removed, enters the gas connecting pipe 6 through gas outlet 18. Horizontal partitions 14 are welded to the front and rear walls 11 and the left and right walls 12. The cleaning fluid is discharged through cleaning fluid outlet 112. Insulation material 19 is installed below horizontal partitions 14 to prevent the ammonia temperature from affecting the cleaning fluid and gas temperatures.
[0051] The first ammonia inlet 51 is connected to the ammonia outlet 113. Ammonia, carrying impurities such as pulverized coal, enters the ammonia tank 5 from the precooler and is deposited on the left side of the vertical partition 57. After the impurities are deposited at the bottom, they are sent to the tar-ammonia separation section via the left vent 59. Ammonia at the top flows to the right side of the vertical partition 57 and is pumped by the ammonia pump 58 to the ammonia spray pipe 17 for recycling. The sediment at the bottom is sent to the tar-ammonia separation section via the right vent 59. The second ammonia inlet 5 receives supplemental ammonia from the tank area to meet the required circulating spraying volume.
[0052] Branch pipe 43 is aligned with the top of main pipe 42. Impurities such as coal dust deposited at the bottom of main pipe 42 can be removed by opening flange cover 45. Branch pipe 43 branches into the top of the primary cooler, ensuring uniform gas flow into the primary cooler. Inside the primary cooler, the gas passes through a circulating water section and a low-temperature water section, cooling it to 21-22°C. It is then fed to an electric precipitator, where tar mist and dust particles are removed for further purification.
[0053] This utility model uses ammonia water to wash the gas at the bottom to reduce the impurity content in the gas. A gas distribution device is used at the top to ensure that the gas entering the primary cooler is evenly distributed. At the same time, the top of the branch pipes is aligned, and the top also has an impurity removal function. It is also simple and compact, reducing space.
[0054] The above description is only part of the specific implementation methods of the present invention, and the protection scope of the present invention is not limited thereto.
