Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This application relates to the field of energy-saving technology in production, and specifically to a high-efficiency energy-saving heating system for the production of basic copper chloride. Background Technology
[0002] The PCB manufacturing industry has driven my country's rapid economic development, but the resulting acid and alkali etching wastewater has also posed a serious threat to the environment. Therefore, the rational and effective recycling and harmless treatment of acid and alkali etching wastewater is imperative. Basic copper chloride is currently one of the important products for the resource utilization of acid and alkali etching wastewater. In related technologies, workers typically neutralize acidic and alkaline etching wastewater to produce basic copper chloride. The resulting ammonia nitrogen wastewater is then concentrated and crystallized before being sold as agricultural ammonium chloride salt.
[0003] Currently, the heating methods for producing basic copper chloride are essentially as follows: The first method involves direct steam flow into the reactor to heat the mixed reaction system of acid-base etching waste to the required reaction temperature of 70-90°C. However, this method suffers from drawbacks such as low steam energy efficiency and high noise levels around the reactor. In particular, the steam condensate, being ammonia nitrogen wastewater, increases subsequent treatment costs. The second method involves embedding coils within the reactor. This method avoids the treatment costs of steam condensate, but over time, the accumulation of basic copper chloride on the coils leads to uneven heating, affecting the quality of the basic copper chloride. The ammonia nitrogen wastewater generated by both methods, after copper removal, enters the resin adsorption for deep copper removal. However, the temperature of this ammonia nitrogen wastewater is high, reaching 55-60°C. This not only wastes residual heat but also reduces the resin's adsorption efficiency for copper ions.

[0023] Due to the application of the above technical solution, this application has the following advantages compared with the prior art:
[0024] The high-efficiency and energy-saving heating system for the production of basic copper chloride disclosed in this application can recover the waste heat of ammonia nitrogen wastewater in the production process by using a heat exchanger, thereby realizing the recycling of heat energy within the system.

This helps reduce the failure rate of heat exchangers, ensures the normal operation of the system, and the hot water washing of products has a better washing and dehydration effect compared to cold water.

[0036] In addition, this application provides a high-efficiency and energy-saving heating system for the production of basic copper chloride, including start-up procedures and system maintenance procedures:
[0037] The start-up steps of a high-efficiency and energy-saving heating system for the production of basic copper chloride provided in this application include:
[0038] S1: Open the valve for the material entering the reactor at the back end, close the heat exchanger washing water valve and its bypass valve, the bypass of the condensate system 12, and open the other pump front valves, copper-containing waste liquid (ammonia nitrogen wastewater) inlet and outlet valves, steam regulating valve, and condensate system 12 drain valve.
[0039] S2: Adjust the pressure reducing valve 2 to make the pressure gauge reading 0.2MPa, thereby ensuring that the steam temperature entering the steam heat exchanger 7 is about 130℃, and ensuring that the heat exchanger sealing strip is not damaged due to high temperature;
[0040] S3: Set the outlet temperature of steam heat exchanger 7 to 90~100℃;
[0041] S4: Start the ammonia nitrogen wastewater feed pump and the copper-containing wastewater feed pump in sequence;
[0042] S5: The flow rate of ammonia nitrogen wastewater is controlled to be 2 to 3 times that of copper-containing waste liquid by the outlet valve of ammonia nitrogen wastewater heat exchanger 7. The flow rate depends on the ratio of the produced ammonia nitrogen wastewater to the consumed copper-containing waste liquid. The acid water is heated in the ammonia nitrogen wastewater heat exchanger 7 as the first step.
[0043] S6: In the steam heat exchanger 5, the opening of the electric regulating valve 4 is controlled by the temperature sensor 6 of the copper-containing waste liquid at the outlet, so as to achieve an outlet temperature of 90~100℃, thereby realizing the second step of heating the acid water.
[0044] S7: The steam condensate generated by steam heat exchanger 5 enters the condensate tank for washing basic copper chloride products.
[0045] The maintenance steps in a high-efficiency energy-saving heating system for the production of basic copper chloride provided in this application include:
[0046] S1: Close the steam regulating valve, copper-containing wastewater and ammonia nitrogen wastewater feed pumps and related pump port valves in sequence;
[0047] S2: After the shutdown process is completed, close the product washing water valve and open the main washing water valve;
[0048] S3: Close the acid water inlet and outlet valves of the ammonia nitrogen wastewater heat exchanger, open the bypass valve, close the valve before the copper-containing wastewater feed pump, open the valve for flushing the intermediate tank containing copper waste liquid (not shown in the figure), close the washing water valve of the ammonia nitrogen wastewater heat exchanger 7, close the acid water side feed valve of the steam heat exchanger, then open the acid water side washing water valve, and start the washing water pump for cleaning.
[0049] S4: Close the acid water inlet and outlet valves of steam heat exchanger 5, open the bypass valve, open the inlet and outlet valves of ammonia nitrogen wastewater heat exchanger 7, close the bypass valve and the acid water side feed valve of ammonia nitrogen wastewater heat exchanger 7, then open the acid water side wash water valve of ammonia nitrogen wastewater heat exchanger 7 and start the pump for cleaning.
[0050] S5: Close the acid water side wash valve of ammonia nitrogen wastewater heat exchanger 7, open the ammonia nitrogen wastewater side wash valve, open the ammonia nitrogen wastewater side outlet valve, close the ammonia nitrogen wastewater inlet valve and bypass valve, start the pump for cleaning, and the cleaning water enters the ammonia nitrogen wastewater storage tank 11.
[0051] The energy-saving heating process of this application consists of an ammonia nitrogen wastewater heater 7 and a steam heater 5 forming a two-stage heating system. This system heats the copper-containing waste liquid that newly enters the system in a combined manner, while simultaneously cooling the ammonia nitrogen wastewater that has passed through the system. The steam condensate continuously generated by the steam heat exchanger 5 during the heat exchange process can be used as washing water for basic copper chloride products.
[0052] For example, the copper-containing waste liquid entering this energy-saving heating system is at a temperature of 20°C. It first enters the ammonia-nitrogen wastewater heat exchanger 7 to exchange heat with the ammonia-nitrogen wastewater (55~60°C) generated from basic copper chloride production, undergoing a first heating process. After the exchange, the temperature of the copper-containing waste liquid is 50°C, and after cooling, the temperature is 30°C. Subsequently, the 50°C copper-containing waste liquid enters the steam heat exchanger 5 for a second heating process, exchanging heat with 130°C steam to raise the temperature to 90°C. The 90°C hot material is then mixed in a proportional manner with the alkaline etching waste liquid (50~60°C) to achieve the temperature conditions (60~90°C) required for basic copper chloride production. The condensate produced by the steam heat exchanger 5 during this process can be used for cleaning the basic copper chloride products and for system maintenance during shutdown.
