[0002] Silicon carbide is made of high-quality quartz sand and petroleum coke in an electric resistance furnace by high-temperature smelting, and the micro powder made of broken silicon carbide is a very widely used raw material, which can be used for device manufacturing in technical fields such as semiconductors and special ceramics. In the production process of silicon carbide micro powder, impurities carried in the raw material will be crushed together, and this part of impurities will affect the service life of the production device using silicon carbide micro powder as the raw material, so it is necessary to pickling and purify the silicon carbide micro powder after production.

[0003] Silicon carbide pickling is usually under the condition of heating, and the silicon carbide particles are treated with pickling liquid, which can conveniently remove the impurities in the silicon carbide. However, the current acid pickling method is manually bucketed or pumped into the pickling tank, which is low in efficiency and has safety hazards. UTILITY MODEL CONTENTS

[0005] The utility model provides a silicon carbide micro powder pickling system, which comprises n1 pickling tanks, each pickling tank is provided with n2 buffer tanks correspondingly, n1 is greater than or equal to 1, and n2 is greater than or equal to 1.

[0006] Each buffer tank is connected with an acid pickling liquid conveying pump through a main pipeline, and the acid pickling liquid conveying pump is connected with an acid pickling liquid storage tank.

[0007] The buffer tank is arranged above the pickling tank, the bottom of the buffer tank is communicated with the pickling tank, and the acid pickling liquid in the buffer tank is added to the pickling tank by gravity.

[0008] Further, a valve is arranged at the connecting end of the buffer tank and the pickling tank.

[0009] Further, flow meters are arranged between the buffer tank and the main pipeline and between the buffer tank and the pickling tank.

[0010] Further, the capacity of the buffer tank is consistent with the maximum acid adding amount of the pickling tank.

[0011] Further, a steam pipeline is further connected to the pickling tank.

[0012] Further, a steam flow meter, a steam valve and a temperature sensor are arranged on the steam pipeline.

[0013] Furthermore, the buffer tank is equipped with an inlet and an exhaust pipe at the top and an outlet at the bottom, and high and low liquid level sensors are installed inside the buffer tank.

[0014] Furthermore, n2 equals 2, where one type of buffer tank and pickling solution storage tank is used to hold hydrochloric acid; and the other type of buffer tank and pickling solution storage tank is used to hold hydrofluoric acid.

[0015] Furthermore, the buffer tank containing hydrofluoric acid is filled with hydrofluoric acid into the pickling tank on a regular basis.

[0016] Furthermore, a ball valve is installed between the buffer tank containing hydrofluoric acid and the pickling tank.

[0017] The beneficial effects of this invention are that the pickling system for silicon carbide micro powder provided by this invention delivers a pickling solution to n1 buffer tanks through each pickling solution delivery pump. The use of buffer tanks for transition ensures that there is no need for large-capacity acid storage in the pickling room, reducing safety hazards. At the same time, the buffer tanks use gravity to transport the pickling solution to the pickling tanks. Therefore, only one pickling solution delivery pump is needed to feed the pickling solution to n1 pickling tanks, which can greatly reduce the number of pickling solution delivery pumps. Only one pickling solution delivery pump is needed for each type of pickling solution, which can greatly reduce transportation costs and equipment costs, while also reducing energy consumption.

[0030] The buffer tank 2 is arranged above the pickling tank 1, the bottom of the buffer tank 2 is communicated with the pickling tank 1, and specifically, the outlet 22 of the buffer tank 2 can be directly connected with the pickling tank 1, preferably, the outlet 22 of the buffer tank 2 is connected with the pickling tank 1 through a feeding pipe 11, which is convenient for pipeline arrangement, and the pickling liquid in the buffer tank 2 is fed into the pickling tank 1 by gravity, that is, the pickling liquid delivery pump does not need to be separately arranged in the buffer tank 2, and the pickling liquid is fed by gravity through the height difference between the buffer tank 2 and the pickling tank 1.

[0031] The pickling system of silicon carbide micro powder provided by the utility model can deliver one kind of pickling liquid into n1 buffer tanks 2 through each pickling liquid delivery pump 4, transition is carried out by using the buffer tank 2, can guarantee that large-capacity acid storage is not needed in the pickling room, reduces the security risk, at the same time, the buffer tank 2 uses gravity to deliver the pickling liquid into the pickling tank 1, therefore, the pickling liquid feeding of n1 pickling tanks 1 only needs one pickling liquid delivery pump 4, can greatly reduce the number of pickling liquid delivery pumps, one kind of pickling liquid only needs one pickling liquid delivery pump 4, can greatly reduce the delivery cost and equipment cost, and energy consumption is reduced at the same time.

[0032] In one of the embodiments, the valve 5 is arranged at the connecting end of the buffer tank 2 and the pickling tank 1, and the valve 5 is preferably an electromagnetic valve.
