In order to better meet market demand, manufacturers have tried to improve the yield of the crystallization system. The production process of industrial-grade monoammonium phosphate initially adopted intermittent crystallization. This method is unstable and the crystallization yield varies greatly. With the continuous improvement of process technology and combined with production practice in recent years, a continuous crystallization process has emerged in the crystallization method, which is carried out in a continuous crystallizer.

The existing continuous crystallizer is unable to meet the seasonal demand and maintain the stability of MAP production. In addition, industrial-grade MAP crystals are normally coarse and have a certain degree of viscosity, making them easy to stick to the wall. The wall will become thicker and thicker, thus affecting production efficiency. Utility Model Content

[0019] The preferred embodiments of the present invention are described below in conjunction with the accompanying drawings. It should be understood that the preferred embodiments described herein are only used to illustrate and explain the present invention and are not used to limit the present invention.

[0020] In the drawings, the same reference numerals all refer to the same components.

[0021] like Figure 1 As shown, the utility model provides a continuous crystallizer for industrial-grade monoammonium phosphate, including a tank body 1, characterized in that the tank body 1 includes a first cylinder body 2 and a second cylinder body 3, the first cylinder body 2 is arranged at the top end of the second cylinder body 3, and its bottom end extends to the bottom end inside the second cylinder body 3, the top end of the first cylinder body 2 is provided with an upper head 4, the bottom end of the second cylinder body 3 is provided with a lower head 5, a central guide tube 6 is provided at the center of the bottom of the first cylinder body 2, the bottom end of the central guide tube 6 extends into the lower head 5, and the bottom end is provided with an expansion port 7, and the bottom of the lower head 5 is provided with a mother liquor inlet pipe 8 and a slurry outlet pipe 9.

[0022] In this embodiment, the main body of the tank body 1 is composed of a first cylinder body 2, a second cylinder body 3, an upper head 4 and a lower head 5. The mother liquor used for monoammonium phosphate crystallization enters the tank body 1 from the lower head 5 through the mother liquor inlet pipe 8. The mother liquor circulates continuously from bottom to top and from inside to outside along the central guide tube 6, and reacts with other raw materials in the tank body 1 to obtain monoammonium phosphate crystals. By providing an expansion port 7 at the lower end of the central guide tube 6, the mother liquor can better enter the central guide tube 6 for circulation.

[0023] Furthermore, the mother liquid inlet pipe 8 extends obliquely upward into the lower head 5 to below the expansion opening 7 .

[0024] In this embodiment, the mother liquor inlet pipe 8 is located below the expansion port 7, which enables the mother liquor to better enter the central guide tube 6 for circulation, so that the mother liquor entering the crystallizer can be quickly mixed, achieving rapid crystallization and stable crystal form, thereby realizing stable and uniform crystal particles.

[0025] Furthermore, an inner tube 14 is provided inside the lower head 5 , one end of which is connected to the slurry outlet pipe 9 , and the other end of which extends to the bottom end inside the lower head 5 .

[0026] In this embodiment, the slurry outlet pipe 9 is connected to the inclined inner tube 14, the inner tube 14 is parallel to the tapered portion of the inner wall of the lower head 5, and the end of the inner tube 14 is close to the tapered bottom of the crystallizer, so that it can ensure that the discharged crystals are completely uniform and stable, and can also avoid blockage at the connection with the crystallizer wall (which will result in frequent cleaning and unstable production), thereby enabling stable production operation.

[0027] Furthermore, the side wall of the lower head 5 and the bottom wall of the second cylinder 3 form an angle A, and the angle A is 45°-55°.

[0028] In this embodiment, the angle A is 50°. By changing the angle, it is possible to avoid accumulation of crystallized material at the bottom of the lower head 5, which would affect the discharge or cause a large amount of accumulation and affect normal production.

[0029] Furthermore, the central guide tube 6 is in an inverted cone shape, and the angle thereof at point B is 1.5°-2.5°.

[0030] Furthermore, the expansion opening 7 is a trumpet-shaped opening, and the included angle thereof at position C is 35°-45°.

[0031] In this embodiment, the central guide tube 6 is in an inverted cone shape with an angle of 2° at B, and the expansion port 7 is a trumpet shape with an angle of 40° at C, so that the stirred and stable crystallized particles are more uniform, thereby not only stabilizing the subsequent centrifugal operation, but also increasing the yield of the finished product due to the uniform crystallization.

[0032] Furthermore, an exhaust port 10 and a cleaning port 11 are provided on the outer wall of the upper head 4 , a phosphoric acid inlet pipe 12 is provided on the outer wall of the first cylinder 2 , and a stirring motor connecting flange 13 is provided at the bottom end of the lower head 5 .

[0033] In this embodiment, the tail gas port 10 is used to discharge the tail gas generated by crystallization, the cleaning port 11 is used to clean the tank body 1, the phosphoric acid inlet pipe 12 is used to feed phosphoric acid into the tank body 1, and the stirring motor connecting flange 13 is used to connect the stirring motor (not shown in the figure). The stirring motor cooperates with the stirring blades (not shown in the figure) in the tank body 1 to stir the raw materials in the tank body 1 to achieve the purpose of crystallization.

[0034] The utility model discloses a continuous crystallizer for industrial-grade monoammonium phosphate. The utility model has an inverted conical central guide tube and a trumpet-shaped expansion port added at the bottom, which can make the stirring stable crystal particles more uniform, thereby stabilizing the subsequent centrifugal operation and improving the yield of the finished product due to the uniform crystallization. The end of the mother liquor inlet pipe is close to the center part of the bottom end of the expansion port, so that the new material entering the crystallizer can be quickly mixed, so as to achieve rapid crystallization and stable crystal form, thereby realizing stable and uniform crystal particles.

[0035] Finally, it should be noted that the above are merely preferred embodiments of the present invention and are not intended to limit the present invention. Although the present invention has been described in detail with reference to the aforementioned embodiments, those skilled in the art will be able to modify the technical solutions described in the aforementioned embodiments or replace some of the technical features therein with equivalents.
