Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to a washing system, specifically a washing system suitable for aramid 1414 fiber production lines, and belongs to the field of aramid 1414 production technology. Background Technology

[0002] Rubber reinforcing materials are among the most important raw materials influencing the development of the rubber industry. The industry has evolved from cotton to synthetic fibers, and further to steel cord, bead wire, and steel rope reinforcing materials. With the global automotive industry's focus on energy conservation, environmental protection, and safety, high-performance reinforcing materials, represented by aramid fiber, have been developed in recent years. Poly(p-phenylene terephthalamide) fiber, also known as aramid 1414 fiber or para-aramid fiber, is a high-strength, high-modulus organic synthetic fiber widely used in important fields such as bulletproofing, automotive hoses, and optical cables. It is a crucial basic material for aerospace and national defense industries.

[0003] Currently, the production process of aramid 1414 fiber generally involves polymerizing terephthaloyl chloride (TPC) and p-phenylenediamine (PPDA) in a solvent system to generate poly(p-phenylenediamine terephthalamide) polymer. Then, neutralization, pulping, spinning, and washing are performed to finally obtain aramid 1414 fiber. During the washing process, the aramid 1414 fiber needs to be washed with demineralized water, and excess sulfuric acid needs to be neutralized with alkaline solution (NaOH solution). This results in a large consumption of demineralized water, leading to high costs. Furthermore, the presence of residual sulfuric acid can cause the aramid 1414 fiber to become brittle, severely affecting its quality.

[0004] Although the existing technology CN219217779U discloses "a treatment system suitable for continuous spinning rinsing water recycling", it mainly achieves rinsing water recycling by filtering, adding alkali to adjust the pH value and heating the recycled rinsing water. Therefore, how to ensure the effective recycling of washing liquid and the stability of washing alkali concentration are urgent problems to be solved. Summary of the Invention

[0005] To ensure effective reuse of washing liquid and stable concentration of washing alkali, a washing system suitable for aramid 1414 fiber production lines is proposed. This system includes a demineralized water inlet pipe I, a concentrated alkali inlet pipe, a dilute alkali inlet pipe, a demineralized water inlet pipe II, a return pipe, an overflow pipe, a washing liquid reuse pipe I, and a washing liquid reuse pipe II. This design saves on the amount of alkali and demineralized water used and reduces wastewater discharge, thereby decreasing the generation of Na2SO4 during the washing wastewater treatment process.

A filter and a heat exchanger are provided on the demineralized water outlet pipe. The filter is located between the demineralized water storage tank and the heat exchanger to exchange heat and filter the demineralized water entering the washing system, thereby improving the effectiveness and stability of the washing process.

[0020] In addition, both the demineralized water inlet pipe I and the demineralized water inlet pipe II are equipped with corresponding regulating valves and washing liquid flow meters.

The primary washing tank 1 is connected to the demineralized water storage tank 6 via a demineralized water inlet pipe I 5. The secondary washing tank 2 is connected to the concentrated alkali solution storage tank 8 via a concentrated alkali solution inlet pipe 7. The tertiary washing tank 3 is connected to the dilute alkali solution storage tank 10 via a dilute alkali solution inlet pipe 9. The quaternary washing tank 4 is connected to the demineralized water storage tank 6 via a demineralized water inlet pipe II 11. The primary washing tank 1, the secondary washing tank 2, the tertiary washing tank 3, and the quaternary washing tank 4 form a continuous path for washing aramid 1414 fibers.

[0031] The washing liquid outlet of the fourth-stage washing tank 4 is connected to the dilute alkali storage tank 10 through the washing liquid reuse pipe I 13; the washing liquid outlet of the third-stage washing tank 3 is connected to the second-stage washing tank 2 through the washing liquid reuse pipe II 14; the washing liquid outlet of the second-stage washing tank 2 is connected to the return port of the second-stage washing tank 2 through the return pipe 15; the second-stage washing tank 2 is provided with an overflow port, which is connected to an overflow pipe 16; more specifically, the overflow port is connected to an overflow collection tank 17 through the overflow pipe 16; the concentrated alkali inlet pipe 7, the washing liquid reuse pipe II 14, the return pipe 15 and the overflow pipe 16 form a regulating pipeline for stabilizing the alkali concentration in the second-stage washing tank 2.

[0032] Among them, the concentrated alkali solution storage tank 8 contains a sodium hydroxide solution with a concentration of 23%; the dilute alkali solution storage tank 10 contains a sodium hydroxide solution with a concentration of less than 0.05%.

[0033] Based on the sequentially connected primary washing tank 1, secondary washing tank 2, tertiary washing tank 3, and quaternary washing tank 4, aramid 1414 fibers are sequentially washed with water, washed with concentrated alkali solution, washed with dilute alkali solution, and then washed with water again. The washing liquid is then reused in the previous process (backwashing) via washing liquid return pipe I 13 and washing liquid return pipe II 14, effectively saving demineralized water. Furthermore, the arrangement of concentrated alkali solution, return pipe 15, and overflow port on secondary washing tank 2 ensures the balance of concentrated alkali solution within secondary washing tank 2 while effectively saving alkali solution usage, reducing wastewater discharge, and decreasing the generation of Na2SO4 during wastewater treatment.

[0040] The washing liquid recycling pipe I 13 is equipped with a washing liquid regulating valve II 131 and a washing liquid flow meter II 132. The washing liquid regulating valve II 131 and the washing liquid flow meter II 132 are interlocked by an electrical signal. This is used to precisely control the recycling of washing liquid in the washing liquid recycling pipe I 13, and to better coordinate with the concentration of dilute alkali in the dilute alkali storage tank 10, ultimately ensuring the stability of the alkali concentration in the three-stage washing tank 3.

[0041] Example 3

[0042] Based on Examples 1-2, this example further specifies the following to better monitor the pH value and ensure effective washing:

[0043] pH detectors 18 are installed on the secondary washing tank 2, the tertiary washing tank 3, the concentrated alkali solution storage tank 8, and the dilute alkali solution storage tank 10 to monitor the pH value in the corresponding tank in real time, so as to adjust it in time and improve the controllability and timeliness of the aramid 1414 fiber washing process.

[0044] Example 4

[0045] Based on Examples 1-3, this example further specifies the following to better ensure the supply of demineralized water for effective washing:
