Description

Technical Field

[0001] This application relates to the field of metallurgical coking technology, and more specifically, to a high-temperature anomaly early warning system for an ammonia-based desulfurization regeneration tower. Background Technology

[0002] During normal operation, the temperature in the middle of the ammonia desulfurization regeneration tower is controlled at 380℃-420℃, and the pressure is controlled at -150Pa-350Pa. Due to long-term wear of activated carbon and high temperature, the shell and welds of the ammonia desulfurization regeneration tower may crack, causing a large amount of air to enter the high-temperature section in the middle of the regeneration tower. Activated carbon and activated carbon powder will burn rapidly when they come into contact with air, causing a fire accident in the regeneration tower, and in severe cases, an explosion.

[0003] Currently, there is only one temperature sampling point in the middle of the regeneration tower, making it difficult for the system to promptly display abnormal temperature conditions. Manual inspections are ineffective due to the obstruction of the insulation layer and the low frequency of inspections. As a result, the equipment has a low operational safety factor, and manual measurement leads to a waste of human resources. Utility Model Content

[0004] The purpose of this application is to provide a high-temperature anomaly early warning system for an ammonia desulfurization regeneration tower, which monitors the operating temperature of the regeneration tower in real time, prevents fire accidents in the regeneration tower, and improves the stability of the regeneration tower's operation.

A circulating material inlet pipe is installed at the upper end of the regeneration tower, and a first control valve is installed on the circulating material inlet pipe.

The first temperature measuring device is located in the middle of the regeneration tower, the second temperature measuring device is located above the first temperature measuring device, and the third temperature measuring device is located below the first temperature measuring device. An air inlet pipe, a vent pipe, and a regeneration tail gas discharge pipe are installed on the side of the regeneration tower. The air inlet pipe is connected to a hot air furnace, the vent pipe is equipped with a vent valve, and the regeneration tail gas discharge pipe is equipped with a regulating valve. A pressure gauge is installed in the middle of the regeneration tower.

[0007] Preferably, the regeneration tower is provided with an inert gas inlet pipe, and a second control valve is provided on the inert gas inlet pipe.

[0008] Preferably, there are two inert gas inlet pipes, one of which is located above the first temperature measuring device and the other is located below the first temperature measuring device.

[0012] Preferably, the first temperature measuring device, the second temperature measuring device, and the third temperature measuring device are all K-type magnetic thermocouples.

[0013] Compared with the prior art, the beneficial effects of this application are as follows:

[0014] This application, by setting up a first temperature measuring device, a second temperature measuring device, and a third temperature measuring device, can perform multi-point real-time monitoring of the temperature inside the regeneration tower. When the reading of the first temperature measuring device is the same as the reading of the second temperature measuring device or the reading of the third temperature measuring device, the system will indicate that the temperature in the middle of the regeneration tower is abnormal and issue an early warning signal. When the difference between the readings of the first temperature measuring device and the second temperature measuring device or the difference between the readings of the first temperature measuring device and the third temperature measuring device is greater than 20°C, the system will indicate that the temperature in the middle of the regeneration tower is too high and issue an early warning signal. At the same time, the hot air furnace will be shut down to stop heating, the first control valve will be closed, and the conveying of desulfurization circulating materials will be stopped, thereby avoiding the occurrence of subsequent serious accidents.

[0025] Example

[0026] like Figure 1 As shown in the embodiment of this application, the high temperature anomaly early warning system for the ammonia desulfurization regeneration tower includes a regeneration tower 1. A circulating material inlet pipe 2 is provided at the upper end of the regeneration tower 1. A first control valve 3 is provided on the circulating material inlet pipe 2. A first temperature measuring device 4, a second temperature measuring device 5, and a third temperature measuring device 6 are provided on the outer wall of the regeneration tower 1. The first temperature measuring device 4 is located in the middle of the regeneration tower 1, the second temperature measuring device 5 is located above the first temperature measuring device 4, and the third temperature measuring device 6 is located below the first temperature measuring device 4. The first temperature measuring device 4, the second temperature measuring device 5, and the third temperature measuring device 6 are all provided with multiple sampling points on the same level. Thus, if the temperature of any sampling point is too high, it is considered abnormal. An air inlet pipe 7, a vent pipe 8, and a regeneration tail gas discharge pipe 9 are provided on the side of the regeneration tower 1. The air inlet pipe 7 is connected to a hot air furnace 10. A vent valve 11 is provided on the vent pipe 8. A regulating valve 12 is provided on the regeneration tail gas discharge pipe 9. A pressure gauge 13 is provided in the middle of the regeneration tower 1. The pressure gauge 13 is used to detect the gas pressure in the middle of the regeneration tower 1.

[0027] During operation, the first temperature measuring device 4 detects the temperature in the middle of the regeneration tower 1, the second temperature measuring device 5 detects the temperature in the upper part of the regeneration tower 1, and the third temperature measuring device 6 detects the temperature in the lower part of the regeneration tower 1. When the reading of the first temperature measuring device 4 is the same as the reading of the second temperature measuring device 5 or the reading of the third temperature measuring device 6, the system indicates that the temperature in the middle of the regeneration tower 1 is abnormal and issues a warning signal. When the difference between the readings of the first temperature measuring device 4 and the second temperature measuring device 5 or the readings of the first temperature measuring device 4 and the third temperature measuring device 6 is greater than 20°C, the system indicates that the temperature in the middle of the regeneration tower 1 is too high and issues a warning signal. At the same time, the hot air furnace 10 is shut down to stop heating, the first control valve 3 is closed, and the conveying of desulfurization circulating materials is stopped, thereby avoiding the occurrence of subsequent serious accidents.

[0028] In this embodiment, an inert gas inlet pipe 14 is provided on the regeneration tower 1, and a second control valve 15 is provided on the inert gas inlet pipe 14. When the system prompts that the temperature in the middle of the regeneration tower 1 is too high and issues a warning signal, the hot air furnace 10 is shut down to stop heating, the first control valve 3 is closed, and the conveying of desulfurization circulating materials is stopped. Then, the second control valve 15 is opened, and inert gas is introduced into the interior of the regeneration tower 1 through the inert gas inlet pipe 14. The regulating valve 12 on the regeneration tail gas discharge pipe 9 is interlocked to make the pressure in the middle of the regeneration tower 1 positive, thereby avoiding the occurrence of subsequent serious accidents.

[0029] In this embodiment, there are two inert gas inlet pipes 14. One inert gas inlet pipe 14 is located above the first temperature measuring device 4, and the other inert gas inlet pipe 14 is located below the first temperature measuring device 4. In use, inert gas can be simultaneously introduced into the upper and lower ends of the high-temperature section in the middle of the regeneration tower 1 to accelerate the inert gas introduction speed.

[0030] In this embodiment, the second control valve 15 is a solenoid valve. Solenoid valves have the characteristics of fast response and accurate control, and can quickly cut off the fluid in an emergency to ensure the safety of the system. They are also relatively simple to install and maintain.

[0031] In this embodiment, the vent pipe 8 is connected to a branch pipe 16, and a third control valve 17 is installed on the branch pipe 16. The hot air furnace 10 is connected to a blower pipe 18, and the blower pipe 18 is connected to a combustion fan 19. The branch pipe 16 is connected to the blower pipe 18. In use, the vent valve 11 is closed and the third control valve 17 is opened to allow the gas to return to the hot air furnace 10, thereby enabling the hot air to be recycled and reused, improving resource utilization and reducing energy consumption.

[0032] In this embodiment, the first control valve 3, the vent valve 11, the regulating valve 12, and the third control valve 17 are all solenoid valves. Solenoid valves have the characteristics of fast response and accurate control, and can quickly cut off the fluid in an emergency to ensure the safety of the system. They are also relatively simple to install and maintain.

[0033] In this embodiment, the first temperature measuring device 4, the second temperature measuring device 5, and the third temperature measuring device 6 are all K-type magnetic thermocouples. K-type magnetic thermocouples have strong attraction and do not require a complicated installation process, which improves the convenience and flexibility of installation, and at the same time will not damage the shell of the regeneration tower 1.

[0034] The above are merely preferred embodiments of this application and are not intended to limit this application. Various modifications and variations can be made to this application by those skilled in the art. Any modifications, equivalent substitutions, improvements, etc., made within the spirit and principles of this application should be included within the protection scope of this application.
