[0020] Figure 1 The structure of one embodiment of the utility model is shown in the figure. DETAILED DESCRIPTION
[0021] The utility model will be further described in detail by specific implementation and the drawings.
[0022] The existing reaction kettle is usually heated / catalyzed by a heating pipe or microwave, and the treatment effect is not ideal. Some existing reaction kettles add an ultrasonic wave to perform auxiliary treatment, but the whole process is time-consuming and laborious, and the impurity removal effect is not obvious.
[0023] Please refer to Figure 1 The structure diagram of one embodiment of a horizontal reaction kettle for quartz impurity removal. It includes a horizontally placed U-shaped reaction kettle body 1 and a quick-opening kettle cover 2 for closing the opening of the reaction kettle body 1. The reaction kettle body 1 and the quick-opening kettle cover 2 are detachably connected by safety buckles (or bolts 3). An acid and alkali resistant high polymer sealing ring 14 is arranged on the contact surface of the reaction kettle body 1 and the quick-opening kettle cover 2 to ensure airtightness.
[0024] When implemented, as shown in Figure 1 A frequency conversion magnetron 5b (temperature control is achieved by frequency conversion) for generating microwaves is arranged at the lower part of the reaction kettle body. The frequency conversion magnetron 5a guides the microwaves into the inner cavity of the reaction kettle body 1 through a waveguide cavity 5a close to the outer wall of the reaction kettle. A microwave isolation layer 6 surrounding the outer wall of the reaction kettle body 1 is also arranged. The microwave isolation layer 6 can effectively isolate microwave leakage by using a metal isolation cover or ferrite material. When implemented, the waveguide cavity 5a can adopt a square transverse structure. The distance between the waveguide cavity 5a and the reaction kettle is maintained at about 5mm.
[0025] When implemented, when the reaction kettle body 1 is in a horizontal position, rollers can be arranged at the opening part of the reaction kettle body 1 for lifting. The microwave isolation layer / metal isolation cover 6 can also be arranged as a support shell to support the reaction kettle body 1 through a supporting mechanism to realize rotation in it.
[0026] When implemented, as shown in Figure 1 An ultrasonic device (ultrasonic catalytic device 4) penetrating the body of the reaction kettle body 1 U-shaped body is arranged at the bottom of the reaction kettle body 1 U-shaped body. The main body of the ultrasonic device (ultrasonic main machine 4a) is arranged at the outer bottom of the U-shaped body of the reaction kettle body 1, and the ultrasonic transducer head 4b is located at the middle part of the inner cavity of the reaction kettle body 1.
[0027] The patent can realize pressurization by closing the reaction kettle body 1. The microwave catalytic device 5 and the ultrasonic catalytic device 4 are superimposed to realize shorter heating and catalysis time, promote the acid liquid to fully enter the cracks of the ore, promote the opening and sufficient reaction of the fine inclusions, and greatly improve the impurity removal effect.
[0028] When the patent is implemented, the quartz reaction tube body 1 is cylindrical. Of course, in application, it can be changed to non-cylindrical and other shapes, which are also feasible on the basis of the principle of the patent, but the technical effect is worse.
[0029] When implemented, as shown in Figure 1 The reaction kettle body 1 is also provided with a rotary drive mechanism. The reaction kettle body 1 is driven by a rotary drive motor 10 to rotate at a uniform speed in use. Thus, the ore in the acid leaching reaction is kept continuously tumbling to promote the reaction. The rotation of the reaction kettle body 1 replaces the traditional stirring of acid leaching, avoiding the influence of stirring instruments on the purity of quartz sand.
[0030] In practice, as shown in the figure, outside the reactor body 1, a plurality of pipelines are also provided, which are connected to the inner cavity of the reactor body 1, and these pipelines are respectively connected to a safety valve, a pressure gauge, a pressure sensor (sensor unit 7), a gas pressure regulating mechanism 8, a liquid inlet mechanism 9 (acid liquid and water), and a deionized water inlet mechanism (final reactor cleaning, requiring ultrapure water with a resistance of 10-18.825 megaohms). Of course, the pipelines are each independently provided with a valve. Figure 1
[0031] In practice, a PLC is also provided, which has a total control function, and through the PLC, temperature, pressure, and rotating speed control and monitoring, temperature detection and control (through microwave power control), and control of the gas pressure regulating mechanism to adjust the pressure in the inner cavity of the reactor body 1 according to needs are monitored and controlled.
[0032] In practice, the ore stirring mechanism is a rotating drive mechanism of the reactor body 1, which includes a rotating drive motor 10, a transmission belt 12, and a driven disc 13 fixed at the tail of the reactor body; the rotating drive motor 10 rotates at a constant speed and drives the reactor body 1 to rotate at a constant speed through the transmission belt 12 and the driven disc 13, thereby driving the ore processed in the reactor body 1 to stir.
[0033] In practice, the reactor body 1 and the quick-opening cover 2 are connected and fixed by safety buckles or bolts 3 (as shown in the figure). Figure 1 This facilitates the formation of a sealed space and the removal of finished products after the reaction is completed.
[0034] In practice, the inner wall of the reactor and the quick-opening cover 2 are made of high-molecular high-temperature-resistant (200-300℃) materials, such as polyether ether ketone (PEEK); in addition, polyimide and polytetrafluoroethylene materials can also be used.
[0035] In practice, the outer part of the reactor body 1 can be made of the same material as the inner part, or heat-insulating materials can be combined with the inner wall of the reactor, or other composite structures can be used to increase strength.
[0036] In practice, the quick-opening cover 2 can be made of the same material as the inner wall of the reactor. Of course, the quick-opening cover 2 can also be made of polyether ether ketone, polyimide, or polytetrafluoroethylene materials on the inner wall, and heat-insulating materials or metal materials on the outer part, or heat-insulating materials and metal materials combined on the outer part. The outer wall of the quick-opening cover 2 with metal material has the advantages of sufficient support strength and microwave shielding effect. Further, to avoid metal corrosion, a layer of acid-resistant material can also be covered on the metal.
[0037] The inner core of the ultrasonic transducer head can be made of PZT lead zirconate titanate piezoelectric ceramic. However, the surface must be coated with corrosion-resistant ceramic or high-molecular acid-resistant material to avoid corrosion by acid liquid.
[0038] A horizontal reaction kettle for quartz impurity removal, in one embodiment, the reaction kettle volume is 15L, the use pressure is 3MPa, the power supply of the microwave catalytic mechanism 5 adopts 220v±10v, the power is 5000WV, the frequency is 2450+50Hz, the microwave leakage control is <5mW / cm. The rotary drive motor 10 adopts a stepping motor, controlled by a PLC, the reaction temperature in the reaction kettle main body is 60-200℃, and the wavelengths of the ultrasonic wave and the microwave need to pass through the quartz sand.
[0039] The patent application has better use effect and energy efficiency. The principle is that on the basis of the traditional process, the quartz ore is catalyzed and heated by microwave and ultrasonic wave simultaneously in the acid leaching impurity removal stage, the pressure is increased, the acid washing treatment efficiency of the quartz ore is effectively improved, the penetration treatment of the micro-inclusion is effectively realized by the superposition of the microwave and ultrasonic wave, the acid liquid is promoted to enter the gap, the impurities are fully reacted and removed, compared with the traditional process, the impurity removal is more thorough, the reaction time is effectively reduced, the energy consumption is significantly reduced, the process flow is reduced, the efficiency is improved, it is low-carbon and environmentally friendly, and higher-purity quartz can be obtained.
