[0022] The technical solutions of the present utility model will be clearly and completely described below with reference to the accompanying drawings of the embodiments. Obviously, the described embodiments are only some embodiments of the present utility model, and not all embodiments. Based on the embodiments of the present utility model, all other embodiments obtained by those of ordinary skill in the art without creative effort are within the scope of protection of the present utility model.
[0023] Please see Figure 1-3 As shown, a liquid chlorine storage tank exhaust gas absorption device includes a base plate 1, an outer cavity 2 installed at the top edge of the base plate 1, four support columns 3 installed at the bottom of the outer cavity 2, a liquid chlorine storage tank body 4 installed at the top of the support columns 3, a cylinder 5 installed at the top edge of the outer cavity 2, a perforated plate 6 installed on the inner wall of the cylinder 5, a moistened starch-potassium iodide test paper 7 installed on the top of the perforated plate 6, a camera 8 installed through the top of the cylinder 5, a through hole 9 opened inside the outer side of the cylinder 5, a sealing plug 10 installed inside the through hole 9, a gas supply pipe 11 connected to one side of the bottom end of the outer cavity 2, a connecting cavity 12 installed on the outer side of the middle end of the gas supply pipe 11, a negative pressure motor 13 installed inside the connecting cavity 12, and three fan blades 14 installed at the output end of the negative pressure motor 13.
[0024] An absorption tower 15 is installed on the top side of the base plate 1. One end of the gas transmission pipe 11 is connected to a connecting pipe 16. One end of the connecting pipe 16 is installed through the bottom of the absorption tower 15. Several jet nozzles 17 are equidistantly connected to the outer wall of the connecting pipe 16. Two packing layers 18 are equidistantly assembled on the inner wall of the absorption tower 15. A control panel 32 is installed on one side of the liquid storage tank 23. During operation, in practical applications, chlorine leaks cannot be detected in time, thus preventing timely collection and treatment of leaked chlorine, increasing safety hazards in the plant. When chlorine leaks from the liquid chlorine storage tank 4, the leaked chlorine diffuses into the outer cavity 2. The leaked chlorine passes through the perforated plate 6 and comes into contact with the moist starch-potassium iodide test paper 7. Due to the oxidizing properties of chlorine, the test paper turns blue, indicating a chlorine leak. The camera 8 monitors the moist starch-potassium iodide test paper in real time. The state of the powder-potassium iodide test paper 7: Once the test paper turns blue, the camera 8 transmits a signal to the control panel 32. After receiving the signal, the control panel 32 immediately issues a start command to the negative pressure motor 13, realizing timely detection of chlorine leakage and automatic start of the negative pressure motor 13 for gas suction. After the negative pressure motor 13 starts, it drives the three fan blades 14 to rotate, generating negative pressure in the connecting chamber 12. Under the action of negative pressure, the chlorine-containing gas in the outer chamber 2 is sucked in through the gas delivery pipe 11. After the gas in the gas delivery pipe 11 enters the connecting pipe 16, it is evenly sprayed out from several nozzles 17 on the connecting pipe 16, enters the absorption tower 15, and flows upward, passing through two packing layers 18 in sequence to increase the contact area between chlorine and alkaline solution and improve the treatment effect. The specific model of the camera 8 is DS-2CD2T46WD-I3.
[0025] Please see Figure 1 , 2As shown in Figures 4 and 5, the top of the absorption tower 15 is connected to an outlet pipe 19. The outlet pipe 19 has a through groove inside, and an activated carbon mesh plate 20 is movably installed inside the through groove. A side ear 21 is installed on the outside of the outlet pipe 19, and a limit pin 22 is movably installed inside the side ear 21 through the activated carbon mesh plate 20.
[0026] A liquid storage tank 23 is installed at the other end of the top side of the base plate 1. A reflux pipe 24 is connected to the bottom side of the absorption tower 15. One end of the reflux pipe 24 is connected to the liquid storage tank 23. A circulation pump 25 is installed on the outer wall of the reflux pipe 24. A pH sensor 26 is installed through the top side of the liquid storage tank 23. The pH sensor 26 is used to detect the concentration of the alkali solution.
[0027] The liquid storage tank 23 is internally connected to a conveying pipe 27. The middle and top ends of the conveying pipe 27, located on the top side of the packing layer 18, both penetrate the absorption tower 15 and connect to straight pipes 28. Several branch pipes 29 are installed on the outer side of each straight pipe 28. Spray holes 30 are opened inside each branch pipe 29. A pump 31 is installed on the outer wall of the conveying pipe 27. During operation, in the plant, chlorine gas may leak from the inlet and outlet pipe connections and welds of the liquid chlorine storage tank. If a chlorine gas leak occurs, a waste gas absorption device must be used to promptly treat the leaked chlorine gas to reduce safety risks. The alkaline solution in the liquid storage tank 23, which is a sodium hydroxide solution, is pumped by the pump 31 and enters the straight pipe 28 inside the absorption tower 15 through the conveying pipe 27, then flows out of the straight pipe 28... The gas is diverted into several diversion pipes 29, and finally sprayed out from the spray holes 30 on the diversion pipes 29 to absorb the chlorine gas with alkaline solution. After alkaline absorption, the gas continues to flow upward and is discharged through the gas outlet pipe 19. The activated carbon mesh plate 20 further purifies the gas to ensure that the emission meets the standards. If the activated carbon mesh plate 20 needs to be replaced, the limit pin 22 on the side ear 21 can be pulled out for replacement. The alkaline solution that reacts with the chlorine gas in the absorption tower 15 flows back to the storage tank 23 through the return pipe 24 under the action of the circulation pump 25, realizing the recycling of the alkaline solution. The pH sensor 26 monitors the alkaline solution concentration in real time. When the alkaline concentration is lower than the set value, that is, the mass fraction of alkaline replacement should not be lower than 5%, it prompts to replace the alkaline solution. The pH sensor 26 is model InPro4260i.
[0028] Working principle: When chlorine leaks from the liquid chlorine storage tank 4, the leaked chlorine diffuses into the outer cavity 2. The leaked chlorine passes through the orifice plate 6 and comes into contact with the moistened starch-potassium iodide test paper 7. Due to the oxidizing property of chlorine, the test paper turns blue, indicating a chlorine leak. The camera 8 monitors the status of the moistened starch-potassium iodide test paper 7 in real time. Once the test paper turns blue, the camera 8 transmits a signal to the control panel 32. Upon receiving the signal, the control panel 32 immediately sends a start command to the negative pressure motor 13, achieving timely detection and control. In the event of a chlorine leak, the negative pressure motor 13 is automatically activated to draw in the gas. After the negative pressure motor 13 is activated, it drives the three fan blades 14 to rotate, generating a negative pressure in the connecting chamber 12. Under the action of the negative pressure, the chlorine-containing gas in the outer chamber 2 is drawn in through the gas delivery pipe 11. The gas in the gas delivery pipe 11 enters the connecting pipe 16 and is evenly sprayed out from several nozzles 17 on the connecting pipe 16. It enters the absorption tower 15 and flows upward, passing through the packing layer 18 in sequence to increase the contact area between the chlorine and the alkaline solution and improve the treatment effect.
[0029] Under the action of pump 31, the alkaline solution in storage tank 23 (sodium hydroxide solution) enters the straight pipe 28 in absorption tower 15 through delivery pipe 27, and then is divided into several branch pipes 29. Finally, it is sprayed out from the spray holes 30 on the branch pipes 29 to absorb chlorine gas with alkaline solution spray. After alkaline absorption treatment, the gas continues to flow upward and is discharged through gas outlet pipe 19. Activated carbon mesh plate 20 further purifies the gas to ensure that the emission meets the standards. If the activated carbon mesh plate 20 needs to be replaced, the limit pin 22 on the side lug 21 can be pulled out for replacement. The alkaline solution that reacts with chlorine gas in absorption tower 15 flows back to storage tank 23 through return pipe 24 under the action of circulation pump 25, realizing the recycling of alkaline solution. The pH sensor 26 monitors the alkaline solution concentration in real time. When the alkaline concentration is lower than the set value, that is, the mass fraction of alkaline replacement should not be lower than 5%, it prompts to replace the alkaline solution.
