Description

Technical Field

[0001] The utility model relates to the technical field of waste gas treatment, in particular to a hydrosulfite tail gas pretreatment system. Background Art

[0002] Sodium hydrosulfite, also known as sodium dithionite, is an inorganic compound typically present as a white crystalline powder. When exposed to air, sodium hydrosulfite readily absorbs oxygen, causing oxidation and agglomeration, producing a pungent, sour odor. It also readily absorbs moisture, generating heat and deteriorating. Its aqueous solution is unstable and is a strong reducing agent. It is widely used in the textile industry for reduction dyeing, reduction cleaning, printing, and bleaching, as well as for bleaching silk, wool, nylon, and other fabrics. Because it contains no heavy metals, bleached fabrics have a vibrant color and are resistant to fading. Sodium hydrosulfite is also used to bleach foods such as gelatin, sucrose, and preserved fruits, as well as soaps, animal and plant oils, bamboo products, and porcelain clay. Furthermore, it can be used as a reducing agent or bleaching agent in organic synthesis, such as in the production of dyes and pharmaceuticals. Due to its wide range of uses, it is in high industrial demand.

[0003] The sodium formate method is commonly used in the industry to produce hydrosulfite, which produces a large amount of tail gas. At present, the method of treating tail gas is mainly to add a tail gas collection device after the production is completed. The tail gas generated by each device is first collected and then a washing device is set up. The tail gas is directly discharged into the atmosphere after alkali washing. However, this treatment method does not take into account the problem of odor treatment. Therefore, an RTO furnace was subsequently introduced into the tail gas treatment system. After the tail gas generated by each device is collected and alkali washed, it is sent to the 1# RTO furnace (13000Nm 3 / h)、2#RTO furnace (30000Nm 3 / h) for incineration, and the odor problem on site has been greatly improved.

[0004] However, after the two RTO furnaces were put into operation, as the production of hydrosulfite gradually increased, the exhaust gas volume and the content of VOCs such as methanol and ethylene oxide in the exhaust gas gradually increased. Moreover, the last-stage ammonia condenser in the device could only condense the exhaust gas temperature to -10°C, which was unable to effectively reduce the content of VOCs such as methanol and ethylene oxide in the exhaust gas. After multiple, multi-point, and multi-time analysis of the hydrosulfite exhaust gas, the content of VOCs such as methanol and ethylene oxide in the exhaust gas was found to be as high as 100,000 mg / m 3 , seriously affecting the safe operation of the two RTO furnaces and the emission indicators after treatment. Therefore, the utility model discloses a hydrosulfite tail gas pretreatment system that can effectively reduce the content of VOCs gases such as methanol and ethylene oxide in the tail gas.

[0028] The embodiment of the present application solves the technical problem that the existing exhaust gas treatment system cannot reduce the content of VOCs gases such as methanol and ethylene oxide in the exhaust gas to below the target by providing a hydrosulfite exhaust gas pretreatment system.

[0029] In order to better understand the above technical solution, the above technical solution will be described in detail below with reference to the accompanying drawings and specific implementation methods.

[0030] Example:

[0031] like Figure 1 As shown, the hydrosulfite tail gas pretreatment system includes a precooler 1, a condenser 2, a gas-liquid separator 3, a pipeline 4 and a transmission pump 5.

[0032] The precooler 1 includes an exhaust gas inlet 11 , a precooling gas outlet 12 , a separation gas inlet 13 and a precooling separation gas outlet 14 .

[0033] The condenser 2 includes a pre-cooling air inlet 21 and a condensed air outlet 22 .

[0034] The gas-liquid separator 3 includes a condensed gas inlet 31 , a separated gas outlet 32 ​​, and a condensed liquid outlet 33 .

[0035] The tail gas inlet 11 is connected to the tail gas collection device through the pipeline 4. The tail gas in the tail gas collection device enters the precooler 1 through the tail gas inlet 11. The pressure of the tail gas entering the precooler 1 is 0-0.7kPa and the temperature is 35-40°C. After being precooled into pre-cooled air by the precooler 1, the temperature drops to 25-30°C.

[0036] The pre-cooled air is discharged from the pre-cooler 1 through the pre-cooled air outlet 12, and the pressure when discharged is 0-0.7 kPa and the temperature is 25-30°C.

[0037] The pre-cooling air is transported to the pre-cooling air inlet 21 of the condenser 2 through the pipeline 4, and enters the condenser 2 for secondary condensation into condensed air. The condensation temperature in the condenser 2 is set to -20°C, and the pressure of the condensed air discharged from the condenser 2 is 0-0.7kPa and the temperature is -10-18°C.

[0038] Before the tail gas enters the system, the VOCS (methanol) content is 2.5%. After condensation in the precooler 1 and the condenser 2, 0.8% remains.

[0039] The condensed gas enters the gas-liquid separator 3 through the condensed gas inlet 31 on the gas-liquid separator 3 for gas-liquid separation. The VOCS (methanol) removal rate after separation reaches 70%. The pressure of the condensed gas entering and exiting the gas-liquid separator 3 is 0-0.7 kPa and the temperature is -10-18°C.

[0040] After the separated gas is discharged from the separated gas outlet 32, it is transported back to the precooler 1 through the transmission pump 5, enters the precooler 1 through the separated gas inlet 13 on the precooler 1, and is precooled again in the precooler 1 and discharged into the RTO furnace through the precooled separated gas outlet 14. The pressure of the separated gas condensed again in the precooler 1 before entering the RTO furnace is 0-0.7kPa, the temperature is 10-20℃, and the flow rate does not exceed 4000Nm 3 / h.

[0041] The implementation principle of the present invention is as follows: the tail gas is first passed into the precooler 1 for primary condensation, the temperature of which drops to 25-30°C, then passes through the condenser 2 for secondary condensation, the temperature of which drops to -10-18°C, and then passes through the gas-liquid separator 3 for gas-liquid separation, which can effectively pre-remove the VOCs gas content such as methanol and ethylene oxide in the tail gas.

[0042] In summary, compared with the existing technology, the present invention has the following beneficial effects:

[0043] 1. Environmental benefits: The hydrosulfite tail gas pretreatment system of this utility model can reduce the amount of hydrosulfite tail gas and the content of VOCs gases such as methanol and ethylene oxide in the tail gas, reduce the emission indicators of the RTO system after tail gas treatment, eliminate environmental risks, greatly reduce the pressure of production to respond to environmental inspections, and at the same time protect the occupational health of employees.

[0044] 2. Safety benefits: The hydrosulfite tail gas pretreatment system of the present invention reduces the content of VOCs gases such as methanol and ethylene oxide in the hydrosulfite tail gas, thereby essentially reducing the hidden dangers of safe operation of the RTO furnace.
