Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] The utility model relates to the technical field of vinyl chloride production equipment, in particular to a vinyl chloride waste incineration flue gas washing tower. Background Art
[0002] In the production of vinyl chloride, it is mainly divided into ethylene oxychlorination reaction and direct chlorination reaction to produce ethylene dichloride, and then ethylene dichloride is cracked to produce vinyl chloride and HCl. During the process reaction, certain side reactions will occur, producing unwanted by-products.
[0003] The ethylene oxychlorination process is a method used to produce vinyl chloride, primarily by reacting ethylene, chlorine, and oxygen to produce ethylene dichloride. The ethylene oxychlorination process produces three particularly undesirable byproducts: chloral (CCl3CHO), trichloroethylene (C2HCl3), and tetrachloroethylene (C2CL4). The reaction equations are as follows:
[0004] C2H2+ 3HCl + 3 / 2O2→ CCl3CHO + 2H2O
[0005] C2H2+ 3HCl + O2→ C2HCl3+ 2H2O
[0006] C2H2+ 4HCl + 3 / 2O2→ C2CL4+ 3H2O
[0007] Direct chlorination reaction: Chlorine gas is used to react directly with ethylamine to produce dichloroethane. The reaction is generally carried out under heating conditions, and the reaction temperature is generally between 100 and 150°C. This method has the advantages of simple operation and easy availability of raw materials, but the yield is low, and the reactant ethyl chloride is difficult to separate and purify. The reaction equation is as follows:
[0008] CH3CH2Cl + CL2→ C2H4Cl2+ HCL (direct reaction to form dichloroethane)
[0009] C2H4Cl2→ C2H3Cl2+ HCl (ethylene dichloride cracking to produce vinyl chloride)
[0010] In the direct chlorination reaction, chlorinated by-products will be produced. The reaction equation is as follows:
[0011] C2H4Cl2→ 2H2 + 2HCl + 2C
[0012] C2H3Cl → C2H2 + HCl
[0013] C2H3Cl + HCl → CH3CHCl2
[0014] nC2H3Cl → (-CH2CHCl-)n
[0015] Except for a small amount of the above-mentioned by-products that are converted into required substances through special treatment, most of the by-products must be separated from the products through distillation and steam stripping, and then sent to gas, liquid and solid incineration equipment for waste combustion treatment.
[0016] In the waste incineration device, after the by-products are burned, the liquid part is converted into 18% hydrochloric acid. The scrubber is an indispensable part of the gas treatment device. The flue gas can only be discharged into the atmosphere after it has been treated and qualified by the scrubber.
[0017] In the prior art, since the flue gas generated by waste combustion contains a certain amount of HCl, a 10% NaOH solution is used for washing. The alkaline washing and neutralization reaction process is as follows:
[0018] NaOH + HCl = NaCl + H2O
[0019] Na2CO3+ CL2= NaCL + NaCLO + CO2
[0020] Flue gas after scrubbing contains N2, O2, CO2, and H2O. Environmentally polluting HCl and Cl2 must be reduced to acceptable levels. Inadequate scrubbing can leave residual HCl in the flue gas. When the flue gas enters the next process, the temperature drops and condenses. The escaping HCl can form a certain amount of HCl solution, causing corrosion to the equipment. Increasing the concentration and flow rate of the liquid caustic soda cannot solve this problem. Instead, salt buildup can form on the scrubber's inner walls and packing, making cleaning difficult during scrubber maintenance.
[0021] Therefore, there is an urgent need for a flue gas scrubber for incinerating vinyl chloride waste to scrub the flue gas more thoroughly. Utility Model Content
[0022] In order to solve the above technical problems, the utility model provides a flue gas washing tower for incineration of vinyl chloride waste, which can better wash the flue gas by increasing the contact area and reaction time between the alkaline solution and the flue gas.

DETAILED DESCRIPTION
[0042] The present invention will be further described below with reference to the accompanying drawings and embodiments.
[0043] In the vinyl chloride production process, it is mainly divided into ethylene oxychlorination reaction (ethylene oxychlorination is a method for producing vinyl chloride, mainly through the reaction of ethylene, chlorine and oxygen to produce ethylene dichloride) and direct chlorination reaction to produce ethylene dichloride, and then the ethylene dichloride is cracked to produce vinyl chloride and HCl. Certain side reactions will occur during the process reaction, producing unwanted by-products.
[0044] While a small amount of these byproducts undergoes special treatment to transform them into desired substances, the majority are separated from the products through distillation and stripping before being sent to gas, liquid, and solid incineration units for waste combustion. In the waste incineration unit, after the byproducts are burned, the liquid portion is converted into 18% hydrochloric acid. The gas is then treated by process equipment and released into the atmosphere after passing the required standards. The scrubber, an integral component of the gas treatment unit, plays a crucial role. Because the flue gas from waste combustion contains a certain amount of HCl, a 10% NaOH solution is used for scrubbing. After scrubbing, the environmentally polluting HCl and Cl₂ in the flue gas must be reduced to acceptable levels.
[0045] A conventional flue gas scrubber for vinyl chloride waste incineration primarily consists of, from bottom to top, an outlet, a bottom-mounted baffled demister, a demister cleaning device, a top-mounted baffled demister, two layers of liquid inlet pipes, a tubular liquid distributor, a bed restriction plate, Taylor rosette packing, corrugated packing support plates, packing supports separated by partitions between the two layers, and an air inlet. The flue gas generated by the waste combustion, after preliminary treatment, enters the alkaline scrubber from the bottom side of the scrubber. A 10% concentration of NaOH solution enters the scrubber from the two liquid inlet pipes above the scrubber and flows downward by gravity, creating countercurrent scrubbing with the flue gas.
[0046] like Figure 1 As shown, in order to more fully wash the residual hydrogen chloride in the flue gas, the utility model discloses a vinyl chloride waste incineration flue gas washing tower, including a base 1, a neutralization tower 5 is installed on the top of the base 1, the neutralization tower 5 includes an air intake cylinder 2 and a neutralization part which are connected and arranged, an air intake pipe 3 is arranged inside the air intake cylinder 2, and the neutralization part includes a first packing part 6, a first liquid distributor 7, a bubble tower plate 15, a partition part 8, a second packing part 14, a second liquid distributor 13, a demister group 12, a demister cleaning device 9 and a head 10 which are arranged in sequence from bottom to top, and an air outlet 11 is provided on the top of the head.
[0047] The head 10 is a standard elliptical head.
[0048] In the embodiment disclosed in the present invention, the height-to-diameter ratio of the neutralization tower 5 is 6 to 8.5:1. By adjusting the height-to-diameter ratio of the neutralization tower 5 and increasing the height of the neutralization tower 5, the time the flue gas stays in the tower can be increased, resulting in a more thorough neutralization reaction between the flue gas and the alkali solution.
[0049] like Figure 2 As shown, in the embodiment disclosed in the present invention, the first liquid distributor 7 and the second liquid distributor 13 each include a liquid inlet pipe for introducing alkali solution. The liquid inlet pipe is connected to at least one layer of nozzle groups for uniformly atomizing the alkali solution, and each layer of nozzle groups is provided with 19 nozzles 16. The alkali solution is a 10% concentration NaOH solution.
[0050] The nozzle corresponding to the first liquid distributor 7 is configured to provide a flow rate of 90-95 liters / minute at a pressure of 0.15 MPa and a flow rate of 125-130 liters / minute at a pressure of 0.3 MPa. The spray angle is 90 degrees. In the embodiment disclosed herein, the nozzle corresponding to the first liquid distributor 7 can be selected as SJ 1 / 2-PP 90 164.
[0051] Furthermore, the nozzle corresponding to the second liquid distributor 13 is configured to provide a flow rate of 75-85 liters / minute at a pressure of 0.07 MPa and a flow rate of 115-120 liters / minute at a pressure of 0.15 MPa, with a spray angle of 90 degrees. In the embodiment disclosed herein, the nozzle model corresponding to the second liquid distributor 13 can be selected as SJ 3 / 4-PP 90 210.
[0052] The nozzles corresponding to the first liquid distributor 7 and the nozzles corresponding to the second liquid distributor 13 can both achieve uniform atomization and spraying of the 10% NaOH solution, thereby increasing the contact area between the alkali solution and the flue gas and better washing the flue gas.
[0053] In the embodiment disclosed in the present utility model, the bubble cap tray 15 includes a liquid adding port and a draining port, and both the liquid adding port and the draining port are provided with a 90-degree elbow.
[0054] The first liquid distributor 7 is positioned between the bubble-cap tray 15 and the top of the first packing section 6, with the distance between the bubble-cap tray 15 and the top of the first packing section 6 being 1800 to 2000 mm. This design allows the bubble-cap tray 15 to disperse the flue gas into fine bubbles in the lye sprayed from the first liquid distributor 7, significantly increasing the contact area between the flue gas and the lye, thereby improving neutralization efficiency. It also maintains high efficiency over a wide range of load variations, making it adaptable to varying operating conditions, such as flue gas volume fluctuations.
[0055] In the embodiment disclosed in the present invention, the demister assembly includes a bottom-mounted baffle demister 121 located at the top of the demister cleaning device 9 and a top-mounted baffle demister 122 located at the bottom of the demister cleaning device 9. The bottom-mounted baffle demister 121 and the top-mounted baffle demister 122 arranged in two layers can effectively remove HCl liquid mist entrained in the flue gas.
[0056] like Figure 3 As shown, in the embodiment disclosed in the present invention, the tower wall of the neutralization tower 5 includes a tower body lining layer 51, a tower body reinforcement layer 52 and a tower body outer shell layer 53 which are sequentially arranged from the inside to the outside.
[0057] The tower body lining 51 is injection molded from DEAKANE-411 resin, and the tower body reinforcement layer 52 is wound from A400 resin. The resin content of the tower body lining 51 is ≥80% and the thickness is ≥6.5 mm.
[0058] In the disclosed embodiment of the present invention, Taylor rosette packing is provided in both the first packing section 6 and the second packing section 14. Taylor rosette packing has the characteristics of high porosity, low clogging resistance, high flux, and low resistance. Because the gaps between these packings can retain a high amount of liquid, the liquid can be retained in the tower for a longer time, thereby increasing the contact time between gas and liquid and improving efficiency.
[0059] Furthermore, a packing support plate 4 and a bed limiting plate 41 are provided on the first packing part 6 and the second packing part 14. The packing support plate 4 is used to support the packing of the first packing part 6 and the second packing part 14, and the bed limiting plate 41 is used to compress the packing of the first packing part 6 and the second packing part 14.
[0060] The working principle of this utility model is:
[0061] The flue gas generated after the combustion of the waste enters the air intake cylinder 2 from the air intake pipe 3 after preliminary treatment, and then enters the neutralization tower 5. The 10% concentration NaOH solution enters the corresponding nozzle group from the liquid inlet pipes of the first liquid distributor 7 and the second liquid distributor 13 for spray atomization. The 10% concentration NaOH solution after spraying and atomizing flows downward under the action of its own gravity.
[0062] After the flue gas flows upward through the Taylor rosette packing in the first packing part 6, it undergoes the first convection washing with the atomized NaOH solution sprayed by the nozzle group of the first liquid distributor 7. After the first convection washing, the flue gas continues to flow upward to the bubble tower plate 15, and the flue gas is dispersed into fine bubbles in the alkali solution in the bubble tower plate 15, which increases the contact area between the flue gas and the alkali solution, and undergoes the second convection washing. After the second convection washing, the flue gas continues to flow upward through the Taylor rosette packing in the second packing part 14, and undergoes the third convection washing with the atomized NaOH solution sprayed by the nozzle group of the second liquid distributor 13. After the third convection washing, the flue gas continues to flow upward to the demister group 12, and after the demisting treatment, enters the head 10, and flows out of the neutralization tower 5 through the air outlet 11 to enter the next process treatment.
[0063] For ordinary technicians in this field, based on the teachings of this utility model, without departing from the principles and spirit of this utility model, changes, modifications, substitutions and variations made to the implementation methods are still within the scope of protection of this utility model.
