Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model belongs to the field of chemical production technology, specifically a device for eliminating crystallization during the indium extraction process of chloride salt systems. Background Technology

[0002] In the process of recovering indium from indium-containing materials using hydrochloric acid, impurities such as lead and calcium carried by the material enter the solution along with the indium. Due to the characteristics of the hydrochloric acid leaching process, these impurities cannot enter the slag through precipitation as in sulfuric acid leaching; instead, they are carried out of the system through the raffinate. During multi-stage countercurrent extraction of the indium-containing leaching solution, the organic phase loaded in the extraction section inevitably carries a small amount of raffinate into the next process. The lead and calcium impurities in the raffinate easily form precipitates with sulfate ions in the acid washing solution. Over time, these precipitates accumulate and crystallize, adhering to the pipes, agitators, and the inner walls of the extraction tank, causing pipe blockage. Liquid in the mixing chamber cannot enter the clarification chamber, and the stirring intensity is also affected. In addition, due to the high concentration and viscosity of impurities in the organic phase of the chloride salt system during extraction, the oil-water separation process is slow, and ordinary clarification equipment cannot meet the production requirements. Utility Model Content

[0003] In view of the above situation and to overcome the defects of the prior art, this utility model provides a device for eliminating crystallization in the indium extraction process of chloride salt system, which effectively solves the problem of the inconvenience of separating impurities.

[0004] To achieve the above objectives, the present invention provides the following technical solution: a device for eliminating crystallization during the indium extraction process of a chloride salt system, comprising a box body, wherein a discharge pipe and a feed pipe are fixedly connected to both sides of the box body respectively, a connecting pipe is provided on the outside of the discharge pipe, a connecting mechanism is provided between the connecting pipe and the discharge pipe, the box body is provided with a multi-stage separation structure, and multiple drain outlets are provided at equal intervals on the box body.

[0005] Preferably, in the multi-stage separation structure, each stage is divided into several small compartments arranged in a "Z" shape, with an inclined bottom, and each sewage outlet is located at the bottom of each stage.

[0006] Preferably, the connecting mechanism includes an outer cylinder fixed to the outside of the discharge pipe, the outer cylinder having an external thread on its outer side, two symmetrical positioning holes on the outer cylinder, a fixed ring fixedly sleeved on the outside of the connecting pipe, a movable ring movably installed on the outside of the fixed ring, two connecting plates symmetrically fixedly connected to the side of the movable ring near the housing, a threaded cylinder fixedly connected between the sides of the two connecting plates away from the movable ring, a turntable fixedly installed on the outside of the threaded cylinder, the threaded cylinder being threadedly sleeved on the outside of the outer cylinder through an external thread, and two positioning pins symmetrically fixedly connected to the side of the fixed ring near the housing, the two positioning pins being inserted into the two positioning holes respectively.

[0007] Preferably, the outer side of the fixed ring is provided with an annular groove, and the movable ring is rotatably connected to the fixed ring through the annular groove.

[0008] Preferably, a sealing ring is fixedly connected to the end of the discharge pipe away from the box body, and the end of the connecting pipe close to the discharge pipe is in contact with the sealing ring.

[0009] Preferably, a sleeve plate is fixedly installed on the outer side of the discharge pipe, and the end of the outer cylinder near the box body is fixedly connected to the sleeve plate. Two sliding grooves are symmetrically provided on the sleeve plate, and a sliding rod is fixedly connected in each of the two sliding grooves. A sliding plate is movably sleeved on the outer side of each of the two sliding rods.

[0010] Compared with the prior art, the beneficial effects of the present invention are:

[0011] 1. This utility model, by setting a multi-stage separation structure in the box, and the intermediate partitions in each stage of the multi-stage separation structure are arranged in a "Z" shape, the flow rate of the liquid slows down when it flows through, the clarification time is extended, and better separation is achieved. Since a multi-stage series is used and the liquid in the device is all gravity flowed, the processing capacity is large while not consuming excess energy, further saving production costs.

[0012] 2. This device has a simple and reliable structure, requiring only the cutting and welding of PP or PPH sheets. It has advantages such as low inherent investment, simple installation, and low operation and maintenance costs.

[0013] 3.

[0023] The technical solutions of the present utility model will be clearly and completely described below with reference to the accompanying drawings of the embodiments of the present utility model. Obviously, the described embodiments are only some embodiments of the present utility model, and not all embodiments. All other embodiments obtained by those skilled in the art based on the embodiments of the present utility model without creative effort are within the protection scope of the present utility model.

[0024] Example 1, by Figure 1 The present invention relates to a device for eliminating crystallization during the indium extraction process of a chloride salt system, comprising a box body 1, with a discharge pipe 4 and a feed pipe 6 fixedly connected to both sides of the box body 1 respectively, a connecting pipe 3 provided on the outside of the discharge pipe 4, and a connecting mechanism 2 provided between the connecting pipe 3 and the discharge pipe 4, the box body 1 having a multi-stage separation structure 7 inside, and multiple drain ports 5 provided at equal intervals on the box body 1, each stage of the multi-stage separation structure 7 being divided into several small compartments arranged in a "Z" shape, with an inclined bottom, and each drain port 5 being located at the bottom of each stage;

[0025] In operation, the multi-stage separation structure 7 is set up, with the intermediate partitions in each stage arranged in a "Z" shape. This effectively removes the aqueous phase entrained in the loaded organic phase. The loaded organic phase enters through the feed pipe 6 and flows through the "Z" shape. Most of the aqueous phase sinks to the bottom due to its higher specific gravity, while the organic phase passes through the overflow port and enters the next stage of separation. After multi-stage separation, the pure organic phase enters the intermediate tank for temporary storage and is then pumped into the acid washing process. The aqueous phase flows out through the drain port 5 at the bottom of each stage. After efficient separation, the loaded organic phase no longer carries raffinate, and impurities such as lead and calcium do not enter the sulfuric acid washing process. Crystallization in the acid washing section is effectively controlled.

[0026] Specifically, by Figure 2-5 The connecting mechanism 2 includes an outer cylinder 201 fixed to the outside of the discharge pipe 4. The outer cylinder 201 has an external thread 2012 on its outer side and two symmetrical positioning holes 205 on its outer cylinder 201.

The two slots 2018 are respectively inserted into the two slots 2011. The connecting pipe 3 is connected to the external equipment. When the discharge pipe 4 is fixed to the connecting pipe 3, the box 1 can be connected to the external equipment.

[0027] In use, first slide the two slide plates 2014 along the two slide rods 2016 respectively, causing the two insert blocks 2018 to move away from each other. At this time, both return springs 2015 are compressed. Then, bring the connecting pipe 3 close to the discharge pipe 4, so that the two positioning pins 2010 are inserted into the two positioning holes 205 respectively, and the threaded cylinder 203 is fitted onto the outside of the outer cylinder 201. Then, rotate the turntable 207 clockwise, causing the threaded cylinder 203 to rotate and move horizontally at the same time.
