Description

Technical Field

[0001] The utility model relates to the technical field of flash evaporation, in particular to a steam flash evaporation device. Background Art

[0002] In the decarbonization process of synthetic ammonia, various adsorption liquids are often needed to absorb impurities in the mixed gas to achieve the effect of gas purification. In order to reduce costs, after the adsorption liquid absorbs the impurity gas, it is depressurized and vaporized through a flash evaporation device such as a flash tank to separate the gas and liquid.

[0003] When saturated liquid enters a flash tank, it vaporizes due to pressure drop, producing a large amount of steam. However, during this vaporization process, the steam is mixed with a large number of liquid droplets. If this liquid is not separated and directly enters downstream equipment, it will affect the normal operation of the downstream equipment. Previous flash tank structures installed a baffle below the steam discharge port. When the steam encounters the baffle, some liquid droplets are blocked by the baffle, but some droplets are still carried away with the steam, making the steam mixed with the original liquid components and impure. Utility Model Content

[0004] In view of the above-mentioned prior art, the present invention provides a steam flash evaporation device, which mainly solves the technical problems existing in the above-mentioned background technology.

[0005] To achieve the above-mentioned purpose, the technical solution of the embodiment of the present utility model is implemented as follows:

[0006] A steam flash device comprises a flash tank, the flash tank comprising a gas-liquid separation device and a feed port, the feed port being provided on a side wall of the flash tank, a pressure regulating valve being provided at the feed port, the gas-liquid separation device being provided in the flash tank, the gas-liquid separation device comprising a baffle, a positive friction assembly and a negative friction assembly, the baffle being fixedly mounted above the feed port, the positive friction assembly and the negative friction assembly being fixedly mounted on the baffle, a plurality of through holes being provided in the positive friction assembly, the axis of the through holes being 30° to the axis of the positive friction assembly, the structure of the negative friction assembly being the same as that of the positive friction assembly, and the axis of the through hole of the positive friction assembly intersecting with the axis of the through hole of the negative friction assembly.

[0007] Preferably, an air outlet is provided at the top of the flash tank, and a wire mesh demister is fixedly installed at the air outlet.

[0008] Preferably, a liquid outlet is provided at the bottom of the flash tank.

[0009] Preferably, the positive friction component and the negative friction component are made of metallic conductive material.

[0011] Preferably, the through hole of the negative friction component is coated with a strong positive coating, and the material of the strong positive coating is nylon.

[0012] Preferably, the bottom of the flash tank is provided with support legs.

[0020] Example 1

[0021] Please refer to the attached Figure 1-2 The present application provides a steam flash device, including a flash tank 1, the flash tank 1 including a gas-liquid separation device and a feed port 2, the feed port 2 is provided on the side wall of the flash tank 1, and a pressure regulating valve 3 is provided at the feed port 2. The flash tank 1 is provided with the gas-liquid separation device, and the gas-liquid separation device includes a baffle 4, a positive friction component 5 and a negative friction component 6. The baffle 4 is fixedly installed above the feed port 2, and the positive friction component 5 and the negative friction component 6 are fixedly installed on the baffle 4. A plurality of through holes 7 are provided in the positive friction component 5, and the axis of the through hole 7 is 30° with the axis of the positive friction component 5. The structure of the negative friction component 6 is the same as that of the positive friction component 5, and the axis of the through hole 7 of the positive friction component 5 intersects with the axis of the through hole 7 of the negative friction component 6. The saturated liquid containing product gas enters the flash tank 1 through the feed inlet 2, is depressurized by the pressure reducing valve, and is sprayed into the tank. The boiling point of the saturated liquid is reduced by the pressure reduction, generating a large amount of steam. Some droplets in the steam fall to the bottom of the flash tank 1 by gravity for collection, most of the droplets rise with the steam, some droplets are blocked by the baffle 4, and some steam enters the positive friction component 5 and the negative friction component 6, and contacts the strong positive and negative coatings in the through-hole 7, so that the droplets in the steam are charged. The charged droplets are adsorbed together by electrostatic force to form larger droplets, which fall by gravity and separate from the gas, thereby improving the gas-liquid separation effect of the flash tank 1. The axis of the through-hole 7 is 30° to the axis of the positive friction component 5, and the axis of the through-hole 7 of the positive friction component 5 intersects with the axis of the through-hole 7 of the negative friction component 6. The purpose is to make the droplets in the steam fully contact and rub with the friction layer, and at the same time ensure that the charged droplets can be better agglomerated after the steam passes through the positive friction component 5 and the negative friction component 6. Preferably, the flash tank 1 is grounded to avoid static electricity accumulation of liquid droplets.

[0022] Specifically, the top of the flash tank 1 is provided with an air outlet 8, to which a wire mesh demister 9 is fixedly mounted. Pure gas is discharged from the flash tank 1 through the air outlet 8, maintaining a low-pressure environment within the flash tank 1 and facilitating subsequent flash operations. The wire mesh demister 9 at the air outlet 8 serves to intercept rising foam and improve the purity of the gas.

[0023] Specifically, a liquid outlet 10 is provided at the bottom of the flash tank 1. Liquid collected at the bottom of the flash tank 1 is discharged from the flash tank 1 through the liquid outlet 10, avoiding contact between the conductive rod and the liquid, thereby making the flash tank 1 conductive.

[0024] Specifically, the positive friction component 5 and the negative friction component 6 are made of a metal conductive material. The positive friction component 5 and the negative friction component 6 are made of metal to eliminate static electricity generated by friction on the positive friction component 5 and the negative friction component 6.

[0025] Specifically, the through-holes 7 of the positive friction component 5 are coated with a strongly negatively charged coating made of polytetrafluoroethylene. When droplets in the steam come into contact with the coating, the strong electronegativity of the coating imparts a positive charge to the droplets. This facilitates the steam's exit from the positive friction component 5 and its subsequent reunion with the steam ejected from the negative friction component 6. The droplets are attracted to each other by electrostatic forces, improving gas-liquid separation efficiency.

[0026] Specifically, the through-holes 7 of the negative friction component 6 are coated with a strongly positively charged coating made of nylon. When liquid droplets in the steam come into contact with the strongly positively charged coating within the through-holes 7 of the negative friction component 6, the strong electropositivity of the coating imparts a negative charge to the liquid droplets. This facilitates the steam's exit from the negative friction component 6 and subsequent reunion with the steam ejected from the positive friction component 5. The droplets are attracted to each other by electrostatic forces, improving gas-liquid separation efficiency.

[0027] Specifically, the bottom of the flash tank 1 is provided with support legs 11. The function of installing the support legs 11 at the bottom of the flash tank 1 is to improve the stability of the flash tank 1.

[0028] The above are only specific embodiments of the present invention, but the scope of protection of the present invention is not limited to them. Any changes or substitutions that can be easily conceived by a person skilled in the art within the technical scope disclosed in this utility model should be included in the scope of protection of the present utility model. The scope of protection of the present utility model should be based on the scope of protection of the claims.
