Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] The utility model mainly relates to the technical field of tape casting technology, in particular to a tape casting solvent catcher. Background Art
[0002] Currently, in the field of tape casting processes (such as the tape casting process of alumina or aluminum nitride), the conventional waste gas treatment model is that the exhaust gas from each exhaust section is first converged into a centralized waste gas main. The waste gas is then transported through pipelines to the waste gas treatment center established in the factory. After undergoing washing and adsorption operations, it is further dried and finally enters the RTO (regenerative thermal oxidizer) for incineration treatment.
[0003] However, for relatively small cast film equipment companies with low exhaust volumes, this centralized exhaust gas treatment model presents numerous drawbacks. The equipment required for centralized exhaust gas treatment is massive and complex, involving energy scrubbing, adsorption, and RTO devices. These devices not only have short operating cycles but also require frequent replacement of adsorption materials. Furthermore, the RTO equipment requires a continuous supply of auxiliary fuel. These factors contribute to high operating costs for exhaust gas treatment, placing a heavy financial burden on production operations and significantly limiting their growth. Utility Model Content

The non-condensable gas in the exhaust gas enters the filter 4, is filtered, and then is discharged through the air outlet 5.
[0028] The refrigeration system also includes a compressor 9, an oil separator 11, a condenser 2, a drying filter 6, a refrigerant liquid reservoir 13, an electronic expansion valve 12 and an evaporator 7. The outlet of the compressor 9 is connected to the inlet of the oil separator 11, the outlet of the oil separator 11 is connected to the condenser 2, the outlet of the condenser 2 is connected to the drying filter 6, the refrigerant liquid reservoir 13, and the electronic expansion valve 12 in sequence, the outlet of the electronic expansion valve 12 is connected to the evaporator 7, and the outlet of the evaporator 7 is connected to the inlet of the compressor 9 to form a closed circulation system.
[0029] A fan 3 is provided on the top of the rack 1 . The fan 3 is arranged above the condenser 2 , and an air inlet of the fan 3 is close to the condenser 2 .
[0030] A liquid level gauge is provided in the purified liquid storage 10. The output end of the purified liquid storage 10 is connected to the storage tank of the casting equipment. When the purified liquid storage 10 is full, it is automatically discharged into the storage tank of the casting equipment. The purified liquid storage 10 generates an air seal by air pressure to prevent the condensed liquid from volatilizing again.
[0031] Working principle:
[0032] The waste gas generated during the casting process enters the steam inlet 8 of the evaporator 7 through the waste gas main. The waste gas contains organic solvent vapor. At this time, the refrigeration system starts working. The compressor 9 sucks in the low-temperature, low-pressure refrigerant gas and compresses it into a high-temperature, high-pressure gas. After the gas is discharged into the oil separator 11 to separate the lubricating oil, it enters the condenser 2. In the condenser 2, under the action of the fan 3, the refrigerant gas exchanges heat with the outside air and is cooled and liquefied. It then passes through the drying filter 6 to remove moisture and impurities, the refrigerant liquid reservoir 13 for storage and regulation, and the electronic expansion valve 12 for throttling and pressure reduction, becoming a low-temperature, low-pressure refrigerant liquid mixture that enters the evaporator tube of the evaporator 7.
[0033] The absorption tubes inside the evaporator 7 and the cold plate outside the discharge pipe transfer heat to the refrigerant inside the tubes through heat conduction and convection. The refrigerant inside the tubes absorbs the heat from the organic solvent vapor, causing it to evaporate and absorb heat from the surrounding environment, thereby achieving vaporization. During this process, the organic solvent vapor outside the tubes is continuously captured and liquefied, converging and separating into small droplets, eventually forming a large liquid mass. Under the influence of external pressure and gravity, as well as the internal structural design of the evaporator 7, the liquid condensables are separated from the non-condensable gases. The liquid then flows through the confluence pipe into the purified liquid storage 10. Simultaneously, a small amount of condensed vapor with a low boiling point (including non-condensable gases and a small amount of partially condensed condensable gases) flows toward the other output end of the evaporator 7 and enters the filter 4.
[0034] In the filter 4, the adsorption material can well adsorb the condensable vapors that have not been captured and not completely condensed, and further separate the air. The small amount of residual liquid condensables will gather on the surface or inside the filter element to form droplets and flow downward along the filter element under the action of gravity, and finally gather in the liquid collection area at the bottom of the filter 4. After collection, the liquid can also enter the recovery tank and other subsequent treatments, and the purified non-condensable gas is discharged from the air outlet 5.
[0035] After the liquid condensable material enters the recovery tank, air pressure is used to create an air seal to prevent the condensed liquid from volatilizing again. In the purified liquid storage 10, the liquid level gauge monitors the liquid level in real time. When the liquid level reaches the set height and the purified liquid storage 10 is full, the liquid is automatically discharged into the storage tank of the casting equipment.
[0036] The collector can effectively recover the organic solvent in the waste gas of the casting process, condense the condensable organic solvent into liquid and store it in the purified liquid storage 10, and finally discharge it back to the casting equipment storage tank, thereby realizing the recovery and reuse of the solvent, reducing the loss of solvent and reducing the raw material cost of the enterprise.
[0037] By condensing and recovering the condensable gas in the exhaust gas and filtering and purifying the non-condensable gas, the emission of harmful substances in the exhaust gas is greatly reduced, the pollution to the environment is reduced, and environmental protection requirements are met.
[0038] Compared with the traditional centralized waste gas treatment method, for small-scale cast film equipment companies, this catcher does not require large centralized waste gas treatment equipment, frequent replacement of adsorption materials, and the use of auxiliary fuels, which reduces the company's equipment investment, operation and maintenance costs in waste gas treatment and improves the company's economic benefits.
[0039] The above-mentioned embodiments only express a certain implementation method of the utility model, and the description thereof is relatively specific and detailed, but it cannot be understood as limiting the scope of the patent of the utility model. It should be pointed out that for ordinary technicians in this field, several variations and improvements can be made without departing from the concept of the utility model, which all fall within the scope of protection of the utility model. Therefore, the scope of protection of the utility model patent shall be based on the attached claims.
