Technical Field
[0001] This utility model relates to the field of waste heat recovery technology, and in particular to a waste heat recovery device for tail gas from a chemical plant. Background Technology
[0002] Chemical waste gas refers to the exhaust gas generated during chemical production. It has a certain temperature, and if not utilized, it leads to resource waste. Current technologies utilize waste heat recovery to recover and reuse this heat resource, thus avoiding waste.
[0003] In existing technologies, heat from waste gas is typically transferred to the medium that needs to be heated, such as water or air, through a heat exchanger to achieve the effect of waste heat recovery. Shell-and-tube heat exchangers are usually used for waste heat recovery.
[0004] The tube bundle is the core component of a shell-and-tube heat exchanger, responsible for transferring heat energy from one fluid to another. If the tube bundle leaks, corrodes, becomes clogged, or suffers other damage, it will affect the performance and efficiency of the heat exchanger, and may even lead to equipment failure. However, the tube bundles in the current technology are generally integral, which is cumbersome and inconvenient to disassemble, so improvements are needed. Utility Model Content
[0005] The purpose of this invention is to solve the problem that the tube bundles for waste heat recovery in the prior art are inconvenient to disassemble, and to propose a waste heat recovery device for tail gas of chemical plants.
[0006] To achieve the above objectives, the present invention adopts the following technical solution:
[0007] A waste heat recovery device for tail gas from a chemical plant includes a pipe body, in which a plurality of tube bundle assemblies are disposed, and the tube bundle assemblies are connected in a sleeve manner. A front end cover and a rear end cover are detachably connected to the front and rear ends of the pipe body, respectively.

A plurality of first fixing plates are provided in the middle of the first heat exchange tube.
[0012] Preferably, the second tube bundle assembly includes a second heat exchange tube, a second front baffle and a second rear baffle. The second front baffle and the second rear baffle are both annular and their inner diameters are equal to the outer diameters of the first front baffle and the first rear baffle. The second front baffle and the second rear baffle are connected by baffles. There are six baffles arranged evenly in a circle to form a cage.
[0013] Preferably, the first tube bundle assembly is inserted into the cage body, and the first front baffle and the second front baffle in the first tube bundle assembly are detachably connected by bolts.

Detailed Implementation
[0029] The technical solutions of the present utility model will be clearly and completely described below with reference to the accompanying drawings of the embodiments of the present utility model. Obviously, the described embodiments are only some embodiments of the present utility model, and not all embodiments.
[0030] Reference Figure 1-8 A waste heat recovery device for tail gas of a chemical plant includes a pipe body 3, in which a plurality of tube bundle assemblies are arranged, and the tube bundle assemblies are connected in a sleeve. The front end cover 2 and the rear end cover 5 are detachably connected to the front and rear ends of the pipe body 3, respectively.
[0031] In a specific embodiment of this utility model, a whole tube bundle is composed of several tube bundle assemblies, which allows the tube bundle to be removed separately, avoiding the problem of difficulty in removing the tube bundle due to its overall weight. At the same time, this arrangement allows for multiple groups to work simultaneously when inspecting, maintaining, or replacing the heat exchange tubes after removal, as the tube bundle is divided into multiple groups, thus improving efficiency. For example, if the tube bundle is composed of two sets of tube bundle assemblies, two groups of workers can be assigned to inspect, maintain, or replace the tube bundle assemblies at the same time, thereby improving efficiency.
[0032] An exhaust pipe 7 is provided on the pipe body 3 near the front end cover 2, and an intake pipe 4 is provided on the pipe body 3 near the rear end cover 5.

The first fixing plates 14 are also provided with through holes adapted to the first heat exchange tube 17, and the first fixing plates 14 are located in the middle of the first heat exchange tube 17.
[0036] The second tube bundle assembly includes a second heat exchange tube 10, a second front baffle 9, and a second rear baffle 13. Both the second front baffle 9 and the second rear baffle 13 are annular, with inner diameters equal to the outer diameters of the first front baffle 8 and the first rear baffle 12.

Then, use bolts to fix the first front baffle 8 to the second front baffle 9. Finally, install the front cover 2 to the front end of the tube body 3.
[0041] Disassembly procedure: First, remove the front cover 2, then disconnect the connection between the first front baffle 8 and the second front baffle 9, then pull out the first tube bundle assembly. After pulling out the first tube bundle assembly, disconnect the connection between the second front baffle 9 and the tube body 3, then pull out the second tube bundle assembly, and complete the batch disassembly of the tube bundle.
[0042] Operating Procedure: When this device is in use, chemical exhaust gas enters the tube body 3 through the inlet pipe 4 and fills the tube body 3, and then exits through the outlet pipe 7. During this process, water can be used as a medium to realize the recovery and utilization of waste heat. Water enters the front cover 2 through the water inlet pipe 1, then enters the heat exchange tube in the tube bundle assembly, then flows to the rear cover 5, and then exits through the water outlet pipe 6. The water completes heat exchange when passing through the heat exchange tube, and the waste heat of the exhaust gas is used to heat the water to achieve the effect of waste heat recovery and utilization.
