Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This utility model relates to the field of biogas production technology, and in particular to a mixing and pretreatment system for dry biogas. Background Technology
[0002] Biogas, also known as methane, is a product of the decomposition and metabolism of organic matter (such as straw, weeds, human and animal excrement, garbage, sludge, etc.) by various microorganisms under anaerobic conditions. Its main components are methane and nitrogen dioxide, along with small amounts of other gases such as hydrogen sulfide. The process of biogas production is also called anaerobic fermentation. Based on the total solids content, anaerobic digestion technology can be divided into wet anaerobic digestion (solids content <15%) and dry anaerobic digestion (solids content 20-40%).
[0003] Livestock and poultry manure is rich in organic matter, such as protein, inorganic matter, fat, and undigested dietary fiber, making it a common raw material for biogas production. Utilizing manure for biogas power generation and biomethane production not only effectively solves the pollution problem caused by livestock and poultry farming in rural areas but also greatly improves economic efficiency. However, due to the large amount of impurities and large lumps in livestock and poultry manure, it is difficult to process and discharge, resulting in low manure utilization and low biogas production efficiency. This is especially true in winter, when the long winters and low outdoor temperatures in northern regions cause manure to freeze easily, further reducing manure utilization and biogas production efficiency. Utility Model Content
[0004] The purpose of this invention is to address the shortcomings of existing technologies by providing a mixing pretreatment system for dry biogas production. This mixing pretreatment system can solve the problem of low production efficiency caused by excessive impurities and large lumps in the manure. After being processed by the mixing pretreatment system, the manure is transported to the anaerobic fermentation device, which helps to shorten the fermentation cycle and improve the operating efficiency and stability of the fermentation system, thereby solving the problems of low biogas production efficiency and low resource utilization rate from manure.
[0005] To achieve the above objectives, the technical solution adopted by this utility model is as follows:
[0006] A dry biogas mixing pretreatment system includes: a feed silo and a mixing tank excavated below ground level, and an auger, wherein the feed silo and the mixing tank are connected by the auger; wherein,
[0007] The feed hopper is also equipped with a horizontally installed vibrating screen, the horizontal height of which is the same as the ground level.
[0008] The vibrating screen can separate and remove sand, gravel, and impurities from the manure, and can also crush large pieces of manure before they fall into the feed hopper to improve the utilization rate of manure. The device can also be used for manure feeding in winter, solving the problems of feeding difficulties, resource waste, and low biogas production efficiency caused by frozen manure in winter.
[0009] Furthermore, the dry biogas mixing pretreatment system also includes a lifting component, which is used to lift the material; when there are many sand and gravel impurities on the vibrating screen, the lifting component lifts the vibrating screen to remove the sand and gravel impurities on the vibrating screen.
[0010] Furthermore, the vibrating screen installed inside the feed hopper divides the feed hopper into an upper feed hopper and a lower feed hopper; the upper end of the upper feed hopper is at least 0.5m above the ground.
[0011] The lower feed hopper is dug deep underground, ensuring feeding capacity without occupying too much ground area; the upper feed hopper is set above the vibrating screen and the ground, which can increase the feeding volume at one time and prevent feces from scattering and splashing everywhere during feeding and vibrating screen vibration, thus avoiding pollution and waste of resources.
[0012] Furthermore, the outer wall of the upper feeding hopper is provided with a concrete ramp repaired with concrete, and the concrete ramp is attached to the outer wall of the upper feeding hopper.
[0013] Furthermore, the bottom of the feed hopper is configured as an inverted conical bottom, and the angle between the conical bottom and the horizontal direction is 25°.
[0014] The bottom of the feed hopper is designed with an inverted conical shape and a limited angle of 25°. Compared with a square bottom, the conical bottom and angle design help to maximize the transport of feces to the mixing tank, avoid the accumulation of feces in the feed hopper for a long time, and improve the transport efficiency.
[0015] Furthermore, the inlet end of the auger is inclined into the feed hopper along the inverted conical bottom and contacts the bottom of the feed hopper; the outlet end is away from the feed hopper and is located at the upper end of the mixing tank.
[0016] A motor is installed on the auger. When the motor rotates, the manure in the feed hopper enters the auger from the inlet end and is discharged from the outlet end of the auger through the rotation of the auger shaft, thus entering the mixing tank for storage.
[0017] During the auger conveying process, the rotation of the auger shaft can further pulverize the manure, thereby helping to shorten the fermentation cycle and improve the operating efficiency and stability of the fermentation system.
[0018] Compared with the prior art, the beneficial effects of this utility model include at least one of the following:
[0019] 1. The dry biogas mixing pretreatment system provided by this utility model can solve the problem of low production efficiency caused by many impurities and large lumps in the manure. The manure after being treated by the mixing pretreatment system is transported to the anaerobic fermentation device, which helps to reduce equipment maintenance, shorten the fermentation cycle, and improve the operating efficiency and stability of the fermentation system, thereby solving the problems of low biogas production efficiency and low resource utilization rate from manure. The mixing pretreatment system can also achieve good feeding in winter.
[0020] 2. A vibrating screen is installed in the feed hopper to separate and remove sand, gravel and impurities from the feces, and to crush large pieces of feces, thereby improving the utilization rate of feces.
[0021] 3. The feeding hopper is set up as an upper feeding hopper and a lower feeding hopper. This ensures the feeding capacity without occupying too much ground area. It also prevents the manure from scattering and splashing everywhere during feeding and the vibration of the vibrating screen, thus avoiding pollution and waste of resources.
[0022] 4. The bottom of the feed hopper is designed with an inverted cone shape and a limited angle, which helps to maximize the transport of feces to the mixing tank, avoids the accumulation of feces in the feed hopper for a long time, and improves the transport efficiency.
[0023] 5. The auger conveys the feces, achieving efficient transportation while further pulverizing the feces. Attached Figure Description
