Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of ethanol separation technology, and in particular to a safe separator for denatured fuel ethanol. Background Technology

[0002] Denatured fuel ethanol is a high-purity anhydrous alcohol produced through specialized equipment and processes. It is a flammable liquid. After denaturation, it is not for consumption and is only used as a special type of alcohol for blending gasoline, increasing the octane rating of the gasoline and ensuring complete combustion. Denatured fuel ethanol, as an alternative energy source and industrial feedstock, has advantages such as strong solubility, renewability, and low carbon emissions. However, due to its non-potable components, there are also some safety and environmental concerns.

[0003] In the prior art, during the ethanol separation process, the ethanol vapor is cooled after contacting the top plate inside the separation tank. However, the cooled ethanol vapor cannot be collected along the designated route. Instead, the cooled ethanol flows directly back into the separation tank, thereby increasing the separation time and reducing the overall separation efficiency. Utility Model Content

[0004] The purpose of this invention is to provide a safe separator for denatured fuel ethanol that can prevent ethanol from flowing back during the separation process and accelerate the overall separation efficiency.

[0005] To achieve the above objectives, a safe denatured fuel ethanol separator is provided, comprising a tank body, a feed pipe fixedly connected to the upper left side of the tank body, a plug threadedly connected to the left side of the feed pipe, an observation window provided at the front of the tank body, a cooling device provided at the top of the tank body, a pressure relief valve fixedly connected to the upper right side of the tank body, a thermometer fixedly connected to the middle right side of the tank body, a water outlet valve fixedly connected to the bottom right side of the tank body, a first motor fixedly connected to the bottom of the tank body, an agitator fixedly connected to the output end of the first motor, an isolation layer provided inside the tank body, a heating plate provided at the lower inside of the tank body, a first baffle fixedly connected to the upper right side of the inside of the tank body, and a second baffle fixedly connected to the upper left side of the inside of the tank body.

[0006] A connecting pipe is fixedly connected to the right side of the tank, and a storage tank is fixedly connected to the other end of the connecting pipe. A discharge valve is provided on the right side of the storage tank.

[0007] According to the aforementioned safety-type denatured fuel ethanol separator, a first support column is fixedly connected to the four bottom corners of the tank body, and a second support column is fixedly connected to the four bottom corners of the storage tank.

[0008] According to the aforementioned safety-type denatured fuel ethanol separator, the end of the thermometer is located above the agitator, and the thermometer does not contact the agitator.

[0009] According to the aforementioned safe denatured fuel ethanol separator, the agitator is located above the tank body and is rotatably connected to the tank body.

[0010] According to the aforementioned safety-type denatured fuel ethanol separator, the second baffle is located above the first baffle, and the second baffle does not contact the first baffle.

[0011] According to the aforementioned safe denatured fuel ethanol separator, the cooling device includes a fixed frame, a base plate fixedly connected to the lower part of the fixed frame, a second motor fixedly connected to the upper part of the fixed frame, a fan fixedly connected to the output end of the second motor, and an opening on the outside of the fixed frame.

[0012] According to the aforementioned safety-type denatured fuel ethanol separator, the fan is located inside the fixed frame, and the fan is rotatably connected to the fixed frame.

[0013] According to the aforementioned safety-type denatured fuel ethanol separator, the bottom plate is located above the tank body and is fixedly connected to the tank body.

[0014] This utility model has the following beneficial effects:

[0015] 1. Compared with the prior art, this safe denatured fuel ethanol separator is equipped with a first baffle and a second baffle, which allows the evaporated ethanol vapor to rise to the top of the tank. When the ethanol vapor cools down, it flows into the interior of the connecting pipe through the combined action of the first baffle and the second baffle, thus avoiding the cooling backflow of the ethanol vapor and improving the overall separation efficiency.

[0016] 2. Compared with the prior art, this safe denatured fuel ethanol separator, driven by a first motor, causes the stirring wheel to rotate slowly. The stirring wheel causes the liquid to rotate, making the heating plate heat the liquid inside the tank more evenly, allowing the ethanol to evaporate more evenly. It also avoids the phenomenon of other substances in the liquid vaporizing at the same time as the ethanol in the part of the liquid with excessively high temperature.

[0017] Additional aspects and advantages of this invention will be set forth in part in the description which follows, and in part will be obvious from the description, or may be learned by practice of the invention. Attached Figure Description

[0027] Reference Figure 1-4 This utility model discloses a safe denatured fuel ethanol separator, which includes a tank body 1. A feed pipe 2 is fixedly connected to the upper left side of the tank body 1. A plug 3 is threadedly connected to the left side of the feed pipe 2. An observation window 4 is provided at the front of the tank body 1. A cooling device 5 is provided above the tank body 1. The cooling device 5 includes a fixing frame 51. A bottom plate 52 is fixedly connected to the lower part of the fixing frame 51. The bottom plate 52 is located above the tank body 1 and is fixedly connected to the tank body 1. A second motor 53 is fixedly connected to the upper part of the fixing frame 51. A fan 54 is fixedly connected to the output end of the second motor 53. The fan 54 is located inside the fixing frame 51 and is rotatably connected to the fixing frame 51. An opening 55 is provided on the outside of the fixing frame 51.

[0028] The above structure includes a feed pipe 2 with a plug 3 threaded to its left side, allowing the operator to remove the plug 3 and add raw materials to the tank 1 through the feed pipe 2. An observation window 4 is also provided, allowing the operator to observe the internal condition of the tank 1.

[0029] Driven by the second motor 53, the fan 54 rotates, causing the air to move from top to bottom. The air enters the fixed frame 51 from above and blows out from the opening 55, thus forming an air circulation and cooling the bottom plate 52. The bottom plate 52 is fixedly connected to the top of the tank 1, allowing the air to cool the top of the tank 1 through the bottom plate 52.

[0030] A pressure relief valve 6 is fixedly connected to the upper right side of tank 1. A thermometer 7 is fixedly connected to the middle right side of tank 1, with its end positioned above the stirring wheel 10. The thermometer 7 does not contact the stirring wheel 10. A water outlet valve 8 is fixedly connected to the bottom right side of tank 1. A first motor 9 is fixedly connected to the bottom of tank 1. The output end of the first motor 9 is fixedly connected to the stirring wheel 10, which is located above tank 1 and rotatably connected to tank 1. An isolation layer 11 is provided inside tank 1, and a heating plate is provided at the bottom inside tank 1. 12. A first baffle 13 is fixedly connected to the upper right side of the inside of the tank body 1. A second baffle 14 is fixedly connected to the upper left side of the inside of the tank body 1. The second baffle 14 is located above the first baffle 13 and does not contact the first baffle 13. A connecting pipe 15 is fixedly connected to the right side of the tank body 1. The other end of the connecting pipe 15 is fixedly connected to the storage tank 16. A discharge valve 17 is provided on the right side of the storage tank 16. First support columns 18 are fixedly connected to the four corners of the bottom of the tank body 1.

[0031] The above structure includes a thermometer 7, which allows the operator to monitor the temperature of the mixed liquid to be separated inside the tank 1 at any time, and a water outlet valve 8, which allows the operator to discharge the separated liquid.

[0032] Driven by the first motor 9, the stirring wheel 10 rotates slowly. The stirring wheel 10 makes the heating plate 12 heat the liquid inside the tank 1 more evenly, which can prevent the liquid from being heated too high in some areas. By setting an isolation layer 11, and the isolation layer 11 is made of silicone, the isolation layer 11 can isolate static electricity through the properties of silicone itself, so as to prevent static electricity from affecting the substances inside the tank 1.

[0033] By setting the first baffle 13 and the second baffle 14, the evaporated ethanol vapor rises to the top of the tank 1. When the ethanol vapor cools down, it flows into the interior of the connecting pipe 15 through the combined action of the first baffle 13 and the second baffle 14, thus avoiding the cooling backflow of the ethanol vapor and improving the overall separation efficiency.

[0034] Working principle: In use, the raw material is first added into the tank 1 through the feed pipe 2. At this time, the first motor 9 and the heating plate 12 are turned on. Under the combined action of the stirring wheel 10 and the heating plate 12, the ethanol in the mixed liquid is evaporated, but the other liquids are not vaporized. The ethanol vapor is cooled by contact with the top of the tank 1, and then changes from a gaseous state to a liquid water droplet. Under the combined action of the first baffle 13 and the second baffle 14, it flows into the interior of the connecting pipe 15 and finally flows into the interior of the storage tank 16 through the connecting pipe 15, thereby achieving the separation of ethanol.

[0035] The embodiments of the present utility model have been described in detail above with reference to the accompanying drawings. However, the present utility model is not limited to the above embodiments. Within the scope of knowledge possessed by those skilled in the art, various changes can be made without departing from the spirit of the present utility model.
