Furthermore, those skilled in the art can design regions / layers with different shapes, sizes, and relative positions as needed.
[0021] refer to Figure 1 The present invention relates to an automatic dosing and injection device for scale inhibitors in industrial circulating water, comprising a scale inhibitor stock solution storage tank, a scale inhibitor stock solution mass flow control pipeline, a scale inhibitor dosing tank, an industrial water makeup pipeline, a scale inhibitor injection pipeline, circulating water analysis instruments, and an automatic control system.
[0022] Example 1
[0023] The scale inhibitor stock solution mass flow control pipeline is connected to the bottom of the scale inhibitor stock solution storage tank 101. The scale inhibitor stock solution mass flow control pipeline is sequentially equipped with a scale inhibitor dosing electric valve 2, a Y-type filter 3, a booster pump 4, a mass flow sensor 5, and a flow meter outlet manual valve 6. The flow meter outlet manual valve 6 is connected to the lower part of the scale inhibitor dosing tank 102. The industrial water makeup pipeline is connected to the top of the scale inhibitor dosing tank 102. The industrial water makeup pipeline is sequentially equipped with an industrial water makeup manual valve 8, an industrial water makeup Y-type filter 9, and an industrial water makeup electric valve 10. At the same time, the bottom of the scale inhibitor dosing tank 102 is connected to the scale inhibitor dosing pipeline. The scale inhibitor dosing pipeline is sequentially equipped with a dosing manual valve 11, a dosing metering pump 12, a one-way valve 13, and a dosing pump outlet manual valve 14. The dosing pipeline is connected to the dosing point of the circulating water system. The circulating water tower is connected to the sampling pipeline of the circulating water analysis instrument 103. At the same time, all control and monitoring points are introduced into the automatic control system 104.
[0024] When preparing scale inhibitor for the first time, firstly, the scale inhibitor stock solution storage tank 101 should contain a certain level of scale inhibitor stock solution. Manually open the flow meter outlet manual valve 6. After the scale inhibitor dosing electric valve 2 is opened, the automatic control system 104 starts accumulating the flow from the mass flow sensor 5. If the mass flow is low, the control system 104 starts the booster pump 4. When the accumulated flow reaches the specified value, the control system 104 automatically shuts off the booster pump 4 and the dosing electric valve 2. After the scale inhibitor is added, manually open the industrial water supply manual valve 8. The control system 104 automatically opens the industrial water supply electric valve 10. At this time, the industrial water supply electric valve 10 is controlled by the liquid level interlock of the scale inhibitor dosing tank 102. When the set dosing endpoint liquid level is reached, the automatic dosing is completed.
[0025] The scale inhibitor dosing tank 102 is connected to the scale inhibitor dosing pipeline at the bottom. When the scale inhibitor is added, the manual dosing valve 11 and the manual dosing pump outlet valve 14 are kept open. The data from the circulating water analysis instrument 103 is introduced to the automatic control system 104. The control system 104 automatically adjusts the frequency of the dosing metering pump 12 based on the water quality control target and the real-time data deviation value.
[0026] As one embodiment of this utility model, the scale inhibitor stock solution storage tank 101 and the scale inhibitor dosing tank 102 are both magnetic float level gauges with remote transmission function.
[0027] In one embodiment of this utility model, the automatic control system 104 transmits data in real time to the scale inhibitor stock solution storage tank level gauge 1, the scale inhibitor dosing electric valve 2, the booster pump 4, the mass flow sensor 5, the scale inhibitor dosing tank 102 level gauge 7, the industrial water replenishment electric valve 10, the dosing metering pump 12, and the circulating water analysis instrument 103. Human-machine interaction control is performed through a touch screen, and users can view the detection data and set the control parameters through the touch screen.
[0028] Example 2
[0029] This embodiment is based on the automatic dosing and application device for industrial circulating water scale inhibitors described in Embodiment 1, and includes the following steps:
[0030] 1) The scale inhibitor stock solution storage tank 101 contains a certain liquid level of scale inhibitor stock solution. If the liquid level is low, relevant personnel will be prompted to replenish the scale inhibitor stock solution in time.
[0031] 2) Scale inhibitor preparation operation: Open the manual valve 6 at the flow meter outlet and the manual valve 8 for industrial water supply. When the liquid level in the scale inhibitor preparation tank 102 reaches the set low preparation level, the automatic control system 104 interlocks and opens the electric valve 2 for scale inhibitor preparation and the booster pump 4. It then calculates the mass flow rate and density output from the mass flow sensor 5: V = Q / ρ. The flow rate is then accumulated to obtain the volume of the original scale inhibitor solution entering the scale inhibitor preparation tank 102 within a time interval Δt. When the volume of the original scale inhibitor solution V... 原总 = Set volume V 设总 Afterwards, the current dosing and feeding operation ends. After the dosing is completed, the control system 104 interlocks and opens the industrial water supply electric valve 10 according to the liquid level of the scale inhibitor dosing tank 102. When the liquid level in the dosing tank reaches the set dosing endpoint level, the industrial water supply electric valve 10 is interlocked and closed, thus completing one automatic dosing cycle.
[0032] Furthermore, once an automatic dispensing operation is completed, the control system 104 resets the mass flow rate and density of the previous mass flow sensor 5 to zero, preparing for the next dispensing operation.
[0033] Furthermore, the mass flow sensor 5 simultaneously measures mass flow rate and density, which can prevent the scale inhibitor concentration from becoming unstable due to changes in the scale inhibitor density.
[0034] 3) Scale inhibitor dosing operation: Activate the circulating water analysis instrument 103 to monitor the circulating water quality in real time, and open the manual dosing valve 11 and the manual dosing pump outlet valve 14 at the same time and keep them open; the automatic control system 104 automatically adjusts the frequency of the dosing metering pump 12 according to the water quality control target and the real-time data deviation value.
[0035] Furthermore, the dosing metering pump 12 is a diaphragm pump, which is resistant to acid and alkali corrosion and is equipped with a frequency converter for control.
[0036] Furthermore, the control system 104 automatically adjusts the frequency of the dosing metering pump 12 by introducing a PID algorithm block based on the water quality control target and the real-time data deviation value.
[0037] It should be noted that the device described in this utility model realizes the preparation of a fixed concentration of scale inhibitor and automatic control of dosing by using scale inhibitor density, mass flow rate and corresponding dosing pump. It is simple to operate, reduces workload and improves the level of automation control of scale inhibitor dosing in circulating water.
[0038] Finally, it should be noted that the above embodiments are only used to illustrate the technical solution of this utility model and not to limit it. Although the utility model has been described in detail with reference to the above embodiments, those skilled in the art should understand that modifications or equivalent substitutions can still be made to the specific implementation of this utility model. Any modifications or equivalent substitutions that do not depart from the spirit and scope of this utility model should be covered within the protection scope of the claims of this utility model.
