Technical Field

[0002] Carbon black is a form of amorphous carbon. A light, loose, and extremely fine black powder, it is produced by the incomplete combustion or thermal decomposition of heavy oil or fuel oil in the absence of sufficient air. During the carbon black production process, the reactor generates a large amount of high-temperature exhaust gas. To improve energy efficiency, this high-temperature exhaust gas is often passed through an air preheater to cool the flue gas and recycle the heat. However, existing air preheaters have several issues with carbon black exhaust gas treatment. For example, long-term use of the air preheater can lead to dust and ash accumulation on the heat exchange pipes and fins, seriously affecting heat exchange efficiency and flue gas flow, leading to large vibrations and abnormal noises. Regular cleaning is required, which is labor-intensive. Furthermore, due to the compact internal piping layout of the air preheater, cleaning operations take a long time. Furthermore, simple air preheaters do not fully utilize the waste heat in the high-temperature exhaust gas, requiring a large amount of cooling water during the secondary quenching process, resulting in a double waste of heat and water resources.
