Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] The utility model belongs to the technical field of extraction crystallization devices, and more specifically, relates to an extraction crystallization device. Background Art
[0002] Manganese sulfate, an important chemical raw material, involves multiple complex steps in its production, with crystallization being particularly critical. Traditionally, manganese sulfate production involves obtaining a manganese sulfate solution through the pyrolusite method, the rhodochrosite method, or the two-ore acidification method. This solution is then subjected to a series of operations, including evaporation, concentration, crystallization, filtration, and drying, to produce the final product. Within this process, the crystallization step typically utilizes evaporative crystallization.
[0003] The conventional evaporation crystallization method involves feeding a manganese sulfate solution into an evaporation tank, where it is heated to evaporate the water. As the water content decreases, the solution gradually concentrates until it reaches saturation, at which point manganese sulfate crystals begin to precipitate. This process consumes a significant amount of heat energy, making it particularly energy-intensive when the manganese sulfate production volume is high. Utility Model Content

[0033] like Figure 1 As shown, the present application provides an extraction crystallization device, comprising a mixing chamber 1 and a precipitation separation chamber 3.
[0034] Specifically, a stirrer 2 is provided in the mixing chamber 1. The stirrer 2 effectively promotes the mixing between the stock solution and the extractant through its rotational motion, thereby obtaining a uniformly mixed mixed solution. The mixing chamber 1 also has an overflow pipe 11. When the mixed solution reaches a preset capacity, it can flow out from the overflow pipe 11 to avoid excessive accumulation of the mixed solution, while also providing material supply for the subsequent separation process. The sedimentation separation chamber 3 is connected to the overflow pipe 11. In the sedimentation separation chamber 3, the extractant in the mixed solution absorbs the moisture in the stock solution, causing the substance to be crystallized in the stock solution to precipitate, thereby forming solid crystals, which are gradually deposited in the sedimentation separation chamber 3 and are regularly discharged through the discharge port 31, thereby achieving effective separation of solid-phase products and liquid-phase products. The liquid-phase product is discharged through the discharge port 32. Among them, the extractant can specifically be anhydrous ethanol or concentrated sulfuric acid.
[0035] Compared with traditional crystallization devices, the extraction crystallization device of the present application does not require energy to evaporate the water in the raw liquid, and therefore has the advantage of low energy consumption. It can also recover the liquid product and extract the extractant therein for reuse, thereby reducing the cost and loss of the extractant.
[0036] In a specific embodiment of the present application, there are multiple mixing chambers 1, and the number of sedimentation separation chambers 3 corresponds to the number of mixing chambers 1. Each mixing chamber 1 and each sedimentation separation chamber 3 is arranged in sequence along the liquid flow path, thereby forming a multi-stage sedimentation separation to fully crystallize and precipitate the substance to be crystallized in the original liquid.
[0037] like Figure 1 As shown, in a specific embodiment of the present application, the overflow pipe 11 has a liquid inlet 111 and a liquid outlet 112. The liquid inlet 111 extends into the mixing chamber 1 and is located near the bottom of the mixing chamber 1, thereby ensuring that the mixed liquid in the mixing chamber 1 is fully mixed and uniformly flows into the liquid inlet 111. The liquid outlet 112 extends into the sedimentation and separation chamber 3, allowing the mixed liquid to smoothly transfer from the mixing chamber 1 to the sedimentation and separation chamber 3.
[0038] like Figure 1 As shown, in a specific embodiment of the present application, a plurality of spaced-apart baffles 33 are provided within the sedimentation and separation chamber 3. The baffles 33 are used to obstruct the flow of liquid within the sedimentation and separation chamber 3, thereby reducing the flow velocity of the liquid and providing more time for suspended particles or crystalline substances in the liquid to settle and aggregate. Due to the presence of each flow plate 33, the liquid is forced to come into contact with the plate surface as it flows through, thereby increasing the liquid's adhesion area. This increased adhesion area not only provides more attachment points and growth space for the growth of crystalline substances, but also greatly improves the crystallization efficiency.
[0039] like Figure 1As shown, in a specific embodiment of the present application, the baffle 33 is arranged at an angle to the height direction of the sedimentation and separation chamber 3. When the liquid flows through the baffle 33, due to the angle between the plate surface and the direction of liquid flow, the suspended particles or crystalline substances in the liquid will be subject to a certain resistance and move downward along the plate surface, which not only helps to accelerate the accumulation of crystallized precipitates at the bottom of the sedimentation and separation chamber 3, but also reduces their suspension time in the liquid, thereby improving the efficiency of sedimentation and separation. In addition, due to the angle between the plate surface and the direction of liquid flow, the liquid will produce a certain turbulent effect when flowing through the baffle 33, which helps to break up the agglomeration state between the suspended particles or crystalline substances in the liquid, making them easier to separate and precipitate.
[0040] like Figure 1 As shown, in a specific embodiment of the present application, the sedimentation and separation chamber 3 has at least two drainage ports 32. Each drainage port 32 is located at a different height within the sedimentation and separation chamber 3. During the sedimentation and separation process, due to the density difference between the extractant phase and the dilute stock liquid phase, they naturally separate into layers within the sedimentation and separation chamber 3. At this point, the extractant phase and the dilute stock liquid phase can be separated by selectively opening the drainage ports 32 at different heights.
[0041] Specifically, when the liquid in the sedimentation and separation chamber 3 reaches a stable stratified state, the lower drain port 32 can be opened to discharge the denser extractant phase, facilitating its recovery and reuse. After the extractant phase is discharged, the higher drain port 32 can be opened to discharge the remaining dilute raw liquid phase, achieving effective separation of the two liquids.
[0042] like Figure 1 As shown, in a specific embodiment of the present application, the bottom of the sedimentation separation chamber 3 is a conical bottom, with the large end of the conical bottom facing upward and the tip facing downward, and the discharge port 31 is located at the tip of the conical bottom.
[0043] During the sedimentation and separation process, the crystallized precipitate naturally sinks due to gravity and accumulates near the tip of the conical bottom. When the crystallized precipitate reaches a certain amount, it can be conveniently discharged through discharge port 31. Because discharge port 31 is located at the lowest point of the conical bottom, it can ensure that all crystallized precipitate is completely discharged, avoiding residue and waste.
[0044] like Figure 1As shown, in one specific embodiment of the present application, the extraction crystallization apparatus further includes a star-shaped discharger 4. Star-shaped discharger 4 is mounted at discharge port 31 and comprises a rotor impeller with several blades, a housing, seals, a reducer, an electric motor, and the like. During the extraction crystallization process, when a certain amount of crystallized precipitate accumulates within the precipitation separation chamber 3, it falls under its own weight and fills the gaps between the rotor impeller blades of the star-shaped discharger 4. As the rotor impeller rotates, the material is gradually carried by the blades to the lower portion of the star-shaped discharger 4 and ultimately discharged smoothly.
[0045] The above description is only a preferred embodiment of the present application and is not intended to limit the present application. Any modifications, equivalent replacements and improvements made within the spirit and principles of the present application should be included in the scope of protection of the present application.
