Description

TECHNICAL FIELD

[0001] The utility model relates to evaporator scale removal device technical field especially a kind of self-cleaning forced circulation evaporation device suitable for high salt sewage. BACKGROUND

[0002] In recent years, in the field of high-salinity sewage treatment, evaporation technology has gradually been applied. However, during the evaporation of sewage, because the sewage contains calcium ions, magnesium ions, carbonate ions, sulfate ions and silicates, etc., these elements are continuously concentrated during the evaporation process to reach co-saturation to generate calcium carbonate, calcium sulfate and other crystal nuclei and silicate colloids, which adhere to the outer surface of the heat exchange elements of the evaporator to form a scale layer, which may, on the one hand, reduce the heat transfer coefficient and the evaporation capacity, and, on the other hand, cause the scale to "bridge" between the heat exchange elements to form a whole, affecting production and even causing shutdown. In order to ensure the continuous and stable operation of the equipment, the scale on the surface of the heat exchange elements needs to be removed. The traditional method for removing scale from the evaporator is to stop the operation and perform chemical cleaning. However, each cleaning process requires the equipment to be stopped, and frequent periodic shutdown for cleaning not only reduces the production capacity and increases the cost of cleaning chemicals, but also is time-consuming and labor-intensive. Moreover, the chemical cleaning agents may cause corrosion of the equipment.

[0003] Chinese patent document (publication number: CN106524825B, patent name: A scale removal method and system for a membrane evaporator) discloses a technology that stops the supply of steam at the steam inlet, opens the concentrated liquid discharge port to empty all materials, and adds a prepared scale removal liquid from the raw liquid inlet while running the second circulating pump and the first circulating pump. In the scale removal mode, the flow rate of the first circulating pump should be as large as possible. The scale removal liquid is pumped by the first circulating pump to the spray pipe and is sprayed from the spray port to impact the surface of each heat exchange tube to remove the scale on the surface of the heat exchange tube.

[0004] As can be seen from the above embodiments, the scale removal method and system for the evaporator use a chemical method to remove scale, which requires the equipment to be stopped each time the scale is removed. Moreover, the scale removal liquid may corrode the heating tube, affecting the application of subsequent equipment. Therefore, the method is not only time-consuming and labor-intensive, but also increases the cost of using and maintaining the equipment. Utility model content
