Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of stirring device technology, specifically a high-efficiency anti-sedimentation storage tank stirring device. Background Technology

[0002] Nickel carbonate is an important inorganic compound, appearing as a green powder or crystal. It is widely used in the manufacture of nickel-based batteries, the preparation of catalysts, the formulation of high-temperature ceramic materials, and the electroplating industry, making it an indispensable raw material in the chemical industry. Due to the stable physical and chemical properties of nickel carbonate, coupled with its increasing industrial demand, the efficiency and stability of its production process are of great significance to the development of downstream industries.

[0003] In the production of nickel carbonate, a reaction precipitation method is typically used. This involves mixing a nickel salt solution with a sodium carbonate solution to generate a nickel carbonate precipitate, which is then filtered, washed, and dried to obtain the finished product. After precipitation, the reaction solution must be stored in a dedicated tank for subsequent filtration or further reactions. However, because nickel carbonate contains solid particles and its density is higher than that of a liquid medium, the particles tend to settle to the bottom of the tank due to gravity during storage, forming a solid precipitate layer. This precipitation phenomenon poses a significant challenge to the stability and efficiency of the production process.

[0004] Traditional nickel carbonate production storage tanks are typically equipped with agitators to prevent sediment formation. However, due to the limited flow patterns of the liquid inside the tank, the coverage area of ​​traditional agitators is limited, especially at the bottom of the tank where dead zones can easily form, making it difficult to completely eliminate particle deposition and potentially clogging equipment pipelines. In view of this, we propose a highly efficient anti-sedimentation storage tank agitator. Utility Model Content

[0005] The purpose of this invention is to provide a high-efficiency anti-sedimentation tank stirring device to solve the problems mentioned in the background art.

[0006] To achieve the above objectives, this utility model provides the following technical solution:
