Description

Technical Field

[0001] The utility model belongs to the technical field of acid filtration and relates to a filtering device, in particular to a filtering device for rhenium-containing polluted acid. Background Art

[0002] In rhenium metal recovery systems, pretreatment of rhenium-containing waste acid and control of impurity content are key steps in ensuring the quality of ammonium rhenate products. The industry currently uses wastewater membranes to filter dilute sulfuric acid. However, because rhenium-containing waste acid contains fluoride ions, which are highly corrosive, the entire filter housing and all auxiliary filter elements will eventually corrode over time. This results in increased difficulty in subsequent production, high production investment, and uncontrollable production processes. The following shortcomings have been identified in the existing technology:

[0003] 1) The filter has a short service life.

[0004] 2) The M8 (316L) double-ended thread of the keel fixing bolt is easily corroded during use.

[0005] 3) The M8 threaded holes on the tube sheet are easily corroded.

[0006] 4) The keel gasket loses its elasticity after long-term use and is prone to deviation, causing corrosion of the tube sheet.

[0007] 5) Corrosion of filter accessories can cause the filter to be loosely sealed and cause mixing. Utility Model Content
