Description

Technical Field

[0001] The utility model belongs to the technical field of dimethyl sulfoxide production, in particular to a device for improving the absorption efficiency of dimethyl sulfoxide tail gas. Background Art

[0002] The production of dimethyl sulfoxide (DMSO) generates waste gas containing a variety of sulfur-containing organic compounds at multiple stages, from the sulfur melting room to raw material preparation, synthesis, and distillation. This waste gas has a complex composition, including not only large amounts of carbon dioxide, sulfur dioxide, and water vapor, but also potentially small amounts of nitrogen oxides, sulfur trioxide, sulfur particles, and carbon black particles. Sulfur dioxide is one of the primary pollutants in waste gas and must be effectively removed by an absorber to ensure emissions meet environmental standards. However, sulfur and carbon black particles carried in the waste gas can adversely affect absorber operation, potentially causing pipe blockages, reducing absorption efficiency, and even forcing equipment downtime for maintenance. Sulfur trioxide and nitrogen oxides, when combined with water vapor, form highly acidic solutions such as sulfuric acid and nitric acid. These acidic solutions are highly corrosive to the absorber and its associated equipment, leading to long-term equipment damage, increased maintenance costs, and potentially shortening equipment life. Sulfur and carbon black particles not only clog pipes but also deposit inside the absorber, forming a difficult-to-remove scale layer, further reducing its efficiency. In addition, these sediments may become new sources of pollution and re-enter the atmosphere with emissions. Utility Model Content

[0015] The present invention will be described in further detail below based on the accompanying drawings and specific embodiments.

[0016] Example

[0017] like Figure 1 As shown, a device for improving the absorption efficiency of dimethyl sulfoxide tail gas includes a water washing buffer tank 1, a washing liquid inlet pipe 2 is provided in the upper half of the water washing buffer tank 1, a second pneumatic valve 13 is provided on the washing liquid inlet pipe 2, a flue gas inlet pipe 3 is provided in the lower half, one end of a circulation pipe 4 is provided at the bottom, the other end of the circulation pipe 4 is connected to the upper half of the water washing buffer tank 1, a filter 5, a circulation pump 6 and a condenser 7 are provided on the circulation pipe 4 in sequence, a flue gas exhaust pipe 11 is provided on the top of the water washing buffer tank 1, and the flue gas exhaust pipe 11 is connected to the absorption section 12.

[0018] Furthermore, a drainage pipe 8 is connected in parallel to one end of the circulation pipe 4 near the bottom of the water washing buffer tank 1, and a first pneumatic valve 9 is provided on the drainage pipe 8. The drainage pipe 8 is connected to the sodium sulfite section 10. When the pH value in the water washing buffer tank 1 is too low or the liquid level is too high, the first pneumatic valve 9 is opened to discharge the waste liquid from the drainage pipe 8 into the sodium sulfite section.

[0019] Furthermore, a liquid level gauge 101 is provided on the top of the water washing buffer tank 1. The liquid level gauge 101 is interlocked with the first pneumatic valve 9 and the second pneumatic valve 13. The liquid level gauge 101 monitors the liquid level in the water washing buffer tank 1. When the liquid level reaches the minimum value, the second pneumatic valve 13 is started, and the washing liquid is replenished into the water washing buffer tank 1 through the washing liquid inlet pipe 2. When the liquid level reaches the maximum value, the first pneumatic valve 9 is started, and the washing liquid is discharged from the water washing buffer tank 1 through the drain pipe 8.

[0020] Furthermore, a pH sensor 102 is provided on the side wall of the water washing buffer tank 1. The pH sensor 102 is interlocked with the first pneumatic valve 9. The pH sensor 102 monitors the pH value of the washing liquid in the water washing buffer tank 1. When the pH value reaches the lowest value, the first pneumatic valve 9 is started to discharge the washing liquid through the drain pipe 8.

[0021] Furthermore, a temperature sensor 103 is provided on the top of the water washing buffer tank 1, and the temperature sensor 103 monitors the temperature of the flue gas after washing.

[0022] Furthermore, the circulating pipe 4 is connected to the tube layer of the condenser 7, and a circulating water inlet 701 and a circulating water outlet 702 are provided on the shell side.

[0023] Furthermore, the circulation pipe 4 is connected to the upper inner end of the water washing buffer tank 1 and is provided with a plurality of spray heads 401 to increase the spraying area of ​​the washing liquid and improve the washing effect.

[0024] The use process of the device is as follows: the flue gas from the incinerator enters the water washing buffer tank 1 through the flue gas inlet pipe 3, is washed by the spray head 401 in the tank, and the water vapor, trace nitrogen oxides, sulfur trioxide, smoke dust and sulfur particles in the flue gas are all taken away by the washing liquid. The washing liquid is filtered by the filter 5 to remove the particulate matter, and the filter 5 needs to be cleaned regularly. The filtered washing liquid is then cooled to about 50 DEG C by the condenser 7, and then is pumped into the water washing buffer tank 1 through the circulating pipeline 4. The washed flue gas enters the absorption section from the flue gas discharge pipe 11 at the top of the water washing buffer tank 1. When the pH sensor 102 detects that the pH of the washing liquid is too low or the liquid level meter 101 detects that the liquid level reaches the maximum value, the first pneumatic valve 9 is started to discharge the waste washing liquid, and the washing liquid is discharged to the sodium sulfite section 10. When the liquid level drops to the minimum value, the first pneumatic valve 9 is closed, and the second pneumatic valve 13 is started to inject new washing liquid. The reaction equations involved in the above washing process are as follows:

[0025] 3NO2+H2O=2HNO3+NO;

[0026] SO2+H2O=H2SO3;

[0027] SO3+H2O=H2SO4.
