DETAILED DESCRIPTION

[0022] The present patent application will be further described below with reference to the embodiments.

[0023] like Figs. 1-2 As shown, a multiphase mixing device includes a cylinder 4 with internal components, and flanges 12 are welded to both the upper and lower ends of the cylinder 4.

[0024] A cover plate 2 is provided at the upper end of the cylinder 4, and a bottom plate 7 is provided at the lower end of the cylinder 4. The cover plate 2 and the bottom plate 7 are respectively connected to the flange 12 by a connector 13. The purpose is to facilitate the opening of the bottom plate 7 or the cover plate 2 by disassembling the connector 13, so as to install or inspect the internal components.

[0025] The cover plate 2 is connected to a gas inlet 1, and the bottom plate 7 is connected to a mixing outlet 8. Specifically, the gas inlet 1 is welded to the cover plate 2 and is located at the center of the cover plate 2; the mixing outlet 8 is welded to the bottom plate 7 and is located below the bottom plate 7 to ensure that the gas-liquid mixture can be discharged from the mixing outlet 8.

[0026] The oil-water mixture inlet 10 is tangentially connected to the cylinder 4, with the connection point located in the upper middle part of the cylinder 4. The centerline of the oil-water mixture inlet 10 is perpendicular to the centerline of the cylinder 4. The oil-water mixture inlet 10 is also connected to the reagent inlet 9, which is located on the connecting pipe of the oil-water mixture inlet 10, ensuring that the oil-water mixture is collected with the water treatment reagent before entering the gas-liquid collection zone II.

[0027] Inside the cylinder 4, from top to bottom, there are a gas acceleration cone 3, a contraction cone 5, a throat 6, and a diffusion cone 11. The top of the gas acceleration cone 3 is flush with the top of the cylinder 4. The lower end of the gas acceleration cone 3 is close to the gas-liquid collection area II and is located above the connection point between the pipe of the oil-water mixture inlet 10 and the cylinder 4. The upper diameter of the gas acceleration cone 3 is larger than the lower diameter. The purpose is to accelerate the gas to form a gas core inside the cylinder 4, thereby increasing the mass transfer with the oil-water mixture.

[0028] The contraction cone 5 is located one distance below the gas acceleration cone 3. The upper end of the contraction cone 5 is located below the interface between the inlet pipe of the oil-water mixture inlet 10 and the cylinder 4. The upper end of the contraction cone 5 is connected to the cylinder 4, and the lower end of the contraction cone 5 is connected to the throat 6. The diameter of the upper end of the contraction cone 5 is larger than that of the lower end. The purpose is to collect the oil-gas-water mixture, gradually accelerate it during the flow, reduce the swirling radius, and enhance the swirling intensity.

[0029] The upper and lower ends of the throat pipe 6 are connected with the contraction cone 5 and the diffusion cone 11 respectively.

[0030] The lower end of the diffusion cone 11 is connected with the bottom of the cylinder 4 in a flush manner.

[0031] In some embodiments, the multiphase mixing device can be connected in series or in parallel in multiple stages to adapt to different processing occasions and processing capacities.

[0032] The working principle of the utility model is as follows:

[0033] The oil-water mixture with a certain pressure is tangentially introduced into the cylinder 4 through the oil-water mixture inlet 10 on the side of the cylinder 4, and after being mixed with the water treatment agent introduced through the agent inlet 9, the mixture enters the gas-liquid collection area II to form a cyclone. After the gas is introduced into the device through the gas inlet 1 at the top at a high pressure, the gas is accelerated through the gas accelerating cone 3 and then forms a gas core in the gas-liquid collection area II. Under the radial shear effect of the cyclone, on the one hand, the water treatment agent is stretched and activated under the action of the cyclone, and at the same time, the oil droplets are captured to form a drug-oil droplet adhesion body; on the other hand, the gas core and the contact surface of the cyclone exchange mass, and the high-pressure gas is gradually dissolved in the oil-water mixture. When the oil-water mixture passes through the contraction cone 5 and enters the acceleration area III, the radius of the throat pipe 6 is significantly reduced, the cyclone intensity is increased, and the stretching and activation effect of the water treatment agent is enhanced. At the same time, due to the reduction of the flow space, the capture effect of the water treatment agent on the oil droplets is enhanced. After entering the diffusion area IV, the pressure of the oil-water mixture is reduced, and part of the dissolved gas is gradually separated in the form of a small bubble inside the drug-oil droplet adhesion body. After several stages of mixing and gas dissolution, the oil-containing sewage, the agent flocculation body and the dissolved gas are discharged through the mixing outlet 8, so as to realize the pretreatment of the oil-containing sewage.

[0034] The embodiments of the specific embodiment are preferred embodiments of the utility model, and do not limit the protection scope of the utility model, so that: any equivalent changes made according to the structure, shape and principle of the utility model should be covered in the protection scope of the utility model.
