Description

Technical Field

[0001] The utility model relates to the technical field of indigo production, in particular to a hydrogen recovery device for indigo production. Background Art

[0002] A hydrogen recovery unit for indigo production is used to recover excess hydrogen generated during the indigo reduction reaction. In industrial production, indigo is typically converted via a reduction reaction, using hydrogen as a reducing agent to convert indigo to indigo white. However, due to the complexity of the chemical reaction and the instability of hydrogen supply, the indigo reduction reaction often produces excess hydrogen. If this excess hydrogen is discharged untreated, it not only wastes energy but also poses potential safety risks. Therefore, the role of a hydrogen recovery unit is crucial.

[0003] Patent publication number CN213679817U discloses a hydrogen recovery system for indigo production. This system recovers the hydrogen produced by the sodium ammonia reactor and unreacted ammonia, and uses the recovered hydrogen to provide the energy required to heat the dehydration reactor. This reduces the energy required for indigo production and improves resource utilization during the production process. However, during use, the hydrogen recovery device for indigo production has a relatively short ammonia treatment time, resulting in a small amount of ammonia remaining in the separated hydrogen, resulting in a low purity of the recovered hydrogen.
