Description
TECHNICAL FIELD

[0002] In the production process of chemical enterprises, steam is commonly used as process heat source, different processes need steam of different pressure grades, and different pressure grades (0.6-2.0mpa) of condensate water are produced. These high-pressure condensate water is collected to the flash tank through the pipeline, and a part of the condensate water will become flash steam due to the sudden pressure drop. The flash steam has a low pressure, only 0.2mpa, and the heat loss in the conveying process will make it become normal-pressure condensate water again. Generally, it is selected to be diffused, which not only produces "white smoke" and pollutes the environment, but also leads to a large amount of energy and water resources being wasted.

DETAILED DESCRIPTION
[0021] The technical solutions in the embodiments of the present application will be clearly and completely described in combination with the drawings in the embodiments of the present application. In the following description, a large number of specific details are set forth in order to give a sufficient understanding of the present application, but the present application can also be implemented in other manners different from those described herein, and those skilled in the art can make similar generalizations without departing from the connotation of the present application, so the present application is not limited to the specific embodiments disclosed below.
[0022] Referring to Figure 1 A condensate water waste heat recovery device, comprising a flash tank 1, a desalted water mechanism 2, a low-pressure condensate water mechanism 3, a high-pressure condensate water mechanism 4, and a heat exchange mechanism 5. The flash tank 1 is internally hollow, and a bracket 11 is fixedly arranged at the bottom end of the flash tank 1. A water outlet pipe 12 is fixedly arranged at the bottom of the flash tank 1 and communicates with the inside of the flash tank 1, and a safety valve (not shown in the figure) is fixedly arranged on the water outlet pipe 12. A thermometer (not shown in the figure) and a pressure gauge 13 are fixedly arranged at the top end of the outer side wall of the flash tank 1, for controlling the temperature and pressure to be stable. The desalted water mechanism 2 is arranged at the top end inside the flash tank 1, for storing desalted water. The low-pressure condensate water mechanism 3 is arranged below the desalted water mechanism 2 inside the flash tank 1, for storing low-pressure condensate water. The high-pressure condensate water mechanism 4 is arranged below the low-pressure condensate water mechanism 3 inside the flash tank 1, for storing high-pressure condensate water. The heat exchange mechanism 5 is two groups, and the two groups of heat exchange mechanisms 5 are arranged between the desalted water mechanism 2 and the low-pressure condensate water mechanism 3, and between the low-pressure condensate water mechanism 3 and the high-pressure condensate water mechanism 4, and are arranged with an interval of 25 cm, for recovering heat and moisture.
[0023] When in use, desalted water is fed into the desalted water mechanism 2, low-pressure condensate water is fed into the low-pressure condensate water mechanism 3, and high-pressure condensate water is fed into the high-pressure condensate water mechanism 4. After the device is started, the high-pressure condensate water will enter the bottom of the flash tank 1, and high-temperature condensate water and high-temperature steam will be continuously generated. After the low-pressure condensate water enters the flash tank 1, low-temperature condensate water and low-temperature steam will be generated. The heat exchange mechanism 5 can make the low-temperature condensate water fully contact with the high-temperature steam to recover the heat and water in the high-temperature steam. The desalted water can also fully contact with the low-temperature steam through the heat exchange mechanism 5 to recover the heat and water in the low-temperature steam. Finally, the steam absorbed heat will become condensate water accumulated at the bottom of the flash tank 1. By controlling the amount of desalted water, the pressure in the flash tank 1 can be controlled at normal pressure. Finally, the desalted water absorbed heat and the condensate water are fully mixed and then enter the deaerator, so that the steam consumption of the deaerator can be reduced.
[0024] With reference to Figure 2 The desalted water mechanism 2 comprises a first pipeline 21 and a first spray head 22. The first pipeline 21 is arranged at the top end of the flash tank 1 in the radial direction. One end of the first pipeline 21 is fixed to the inner side wall of the flash tank 1, and the other end extends out of the side wall of the flash tank 1 and is fixed with an adjusting valve 23. The first spray head 22 is in a plurality, which are uniformly fixed to the bottom of the first pipeline 21 and connected with the inside of the first pipeline 21. The low-pressure condensate water mechanism 3 comprises a second pipeline 31, which is arranged below the first pipeline 21 in the flash tank 1 in parallel with the first pipeline 21. One end of the second pipeline 31 away from the first pipeline 21 penetrates through the side wall of the flash tank 1 and is fixedly connected with the flash tank 1. The other end of the second pipeline 31 also penetrates through the side wall of the flash tank 1 and is fixed with an adjusting valve 23. The bottom of the second pipeline 31 is also uniformly fixed with a plurality of first spray heads 22. The high-pressure condensate water mechanism 4 comprises a third pipeline 41, which is arranged below the second pipeline 31 in the flash tank 1 in parallel with the first pipeline 21. One end of the third pipeline 41 away from the second pipeline 31 penetrates through the side wall of the flash tank 1 and is fixedly connected with the flash tank 1. The other end of the third pipeline 41 also penetrates through the side wall of the flash tank 1 and is fixed with an adjusting valve 23. The bottom of the third pipeline 41 is also uniformly fixed with a plurality of first spray heads 22.
[0025] With reference to Figure 3The heat exchange mechanism 5 comprises a horizontal plate 51, a vertical plate 52 and a plurality of bubble caps 53. The horizontal plate 51 is arranged along the radial direction of the flash tank 1 and is fixedly connected to the side wall of the flash tank 1 at one end along the length direction of the horizontal plate 51. The vertical plate 52 is vertically fixed to the top surface of the other end of the horizontal plate 51. The bubble caps 53 are arranged on the horizontal plate 51 in a one-to-one correspondence with a plurality of holes, which are used for the inlet and outlet of steam. The bubble caps 53 are arranged on the corresponding holes and communicate with the holes. The holes are vertical through holes arranged on the horizontal plate 51. The bubble cap 53 comprises an outer cover 532, an inner cover 531 and a connecting pipe 533. The outer cover 532 is fixedly arranged on the horizontal plate 51 above the hole. An opening is arranged on one side of the outer cover 532, so that water can flow into the inner cover 531 from the opening. The inner cover 531 is arranged inside the outer cover 532 above the hole. A plurality of springs 534 are uniformly arranged between the outer top surface of the inner cover 531 and the inner top surface of the inner cover 531. The connecting pipe 533 is arranged parallel to the top surface of the horizontal plate 51 and inside the inner cover 531. One end of the connecting pipe 533 is fixedly arranged on the inner cover 531 and communicates with the outside of the inner cover 531. The other end of the connecting pipe 533 is closed. A plurality of second spray heads 5331 are uniformly arranged on the bottom of the connecting pipe 533. When not in use, the springs 534 are in a stretched state. The connecting pipe 533 and the opening of the outer cover 532 are not on the same horizontal line. The inner cover 531 can move vertically. The opening of the outer cover 532 is located on the moving path of the connecting pipe 533.
[0026] When in use, the adjusting valves 23 are opened. The high-pressure condensed water and the low-pressure condensed water are sprayed. The high-pressure condensed water is sprayed to the bottom of the flash tank 1, so that the high-pressure steam moves upward from the bottom of the flash tank 1. The low-pressure condensed water is sprayed to the horizontal plate 51 of the heat exchange mechanism 5 below, so that the heat and the moisture are recovered. Specifically, when the high-pressure steam enters the inner cover 531 through the hole, the pressure in the inner cover 531 increases. Due to the pressure difference between the inside and the outside, the length of the spring 534 is shortened. The opening of the inner cover 531 is on the same horizontal line as the opening of the outer cover 532. Therefore, the flow rate of the low-pressure condensed water on the horizontal plate 51 into the connecting pipe 533 is increased. The amount of water sprayed from the second spray head 5331 at the bottom of the connecting pipe 533 is increased. More low-pressure condensed water is mixed with the high-pressure steam to recover the heat. Similarly, when the spraying of the high-pressure condensed water is stopped, the pressure in the inner cover 531 decreases. The length of the spring 534 is pulled. The opening of the inner cover 531 is not on the same horizontal line as the opening of the outer cover 532. Therefore, the flow rate of the low-pressure condensed water on the horizontal plate 51 into the connecting pipe 533 is decreased. The amount of water sprayed from the second spray head 5331 at the bottom of the connecting pipe 533 is decreased. Through the arrangement of the bubble cap 53, the amount of water sprayed from the second spray head 5331 can be continuously adjusted according to the pressure of the steam. More steam is recovered for heat recovery. After the steam is absorbed for heat recovery, the steam becomes condensed water and is accumulated at the bottom of the flash tank 1. Therefore, the stability of the pressure in the flash tank 1 is maintained.
[0027] The use principle of the utility model is: when using, the desalted water is passed into the desalted water mechanism 2, the low pressure condensate water is passed into the low pressure condensate water mechanism 3, the high pressure condensate water is passed into the high pressure condensate water mechanism 4, after starting to run, high temperature condensate water, high temperature steam, low pressure condensate water, low temperature steam are continuously produced, the heat exchange mechanism 5 can make the low temperature condensate water and high temperature steam fully contact, and recover the heat and moisture in the high temperature steam; also can make the desalted water and low temperature steam fully contact through the heat exchange mechanism 5, recover the heat and moisture in the low temperature steam, and also can keep the pressure in the flash tank 1 stable.
[0028] Obviously, the described embodiments are only part of the embodiments of the utility model, not all. Based on the embodiments in the utility model, all other embodiments obtained by those skilled in the art without creative labor belong to the scope of protection of the utility model.
