In addition, DEA can also replace tetraethyl aluminum as a gasoline antiknock agent, and has applications in rubber additives and petrochemical fields.

[0004] Currently, MEA and DEA are mostly produced by the synthesis technology of o-alkylation of o-toluidine and aniline with ethylene under the action of a catalyst in the industry. According to the process flow, during the hydrolysis process, aluminium alkyl is decomposed to produce aluminium hydroxide slurry, which needs to be treated and recycled.

[0005] After the aluminium hydroxide slurry is pressed into a filter cake, the cake has large viscosity and is difficult to dry. The traditional kiln or vacuum rake dryer has low drying efficiency and poor effect. Therefore, in order to improve the drying efficiency and effect, a suitable device and operation process need to be designed.

[0024] Please see Figures 1-3In this embodiment, a drying device for aluminum hydroxide sludge in the synthesis of MEA and DEA is provided, including a drying chamber body 1 and a conveyor 4. Multiple conveying rollers 9, driven by a drive source, are arranged horizontally and evenly on the inner surface of the conveyor 4. A base 5 is provided at the bottom of the conveyor 4. A chain track 2 is installed on the vertical inner wall of one side of the drying chamber body 1. The chain track 2 includes four chain gears 10 rotatably mounted on the drying chamber body 1. The outer surfaces of the four chain gears 10 are meshed with the same chain 11. A material rake head 6 is installed on the chain 11. Specifically, one side of the chain 11... A connecting block 12 is fixedly installed, and a mounting frame 13 is fixedly connected to the side of the connecting block 12 away from the chain 11. The mounting frame 13 is fixedly connected to the material rake head 6. One of the chain gears 10 is driven to rotate by a drive motor 15, and the drive motor 15 is fixedly installed on the drying chamber body 1. The conveyor 4 is arranged horizontally and passes through the drying chamber body 1. A material tray 3 is provided on the upper surface of the conveyor 4, and the material tray 3 is located below the material rake head 6. An electric heater 8 is fixedly installed at the top of the interior of the drying chamber body 1. The electric heater 8 is an infrared heater, and multiple infrared heating tubes are provided inside the electric heater 8.

[0025] In this embodiment, the bottom outer surface of the material rake head 6 is provided with rake teeth 14. It should be noted that when the rake teeth 14 of the material rake head 6 are moved by the chain 11 to a position close to the material tray 3, the connecting block 12, the mounting frame 13, and the material rake head 6 are all located at the lower level of the chain 11. The rake teeth 14 can be used to rake the material. After the rakeing is completed, the drive motor 15 drives the chain 11 to rotate continuously. The rotating chain 11 can drive the connecting block 12, the mounting frame 13, and the material rake head 6 to continue to move, so that the connecting block 12, the mounting frame 13, and the material rake head 6 can move after passing through a chain. Following the movement of the gear 10, the chain 11 changes its orientation. When the material rake head 6 moves to the upper chain 11 of the chain track 2, the rake teeth 14 of the material rake head 6 are facing upwards, thus freeing up the conveying space for the subsequent material tray 3 below, allowing the material tray 3 to be turned and rakeed to enter properly. Then, the material rake head 6 continues to move to the lower chain 11, so that the rake teeth 14 are facing downwards, thus continuously turning and rakeing the material, stirring and dispersing the material in the material tray 3, which is beneficial to improving drying efficiency.

[0026] In this embodiment, an exhaust port 7 is fixedly installed on the top of the drying chamber body 1. The exhaust port 7 is used to connect to an exhaust fan, which can extract the moisture during drying.

[0027] In use, materials are fed into material trays 3, which are placed on conveyor tracks 4. The material trays 3 are horizontally conveyed by conveyor rollers 9 on conveyor 4, allowing multiple material trays to be sent into the drying chamber body 1 for drying. An electric heater 8, composed of multiple infrared heating tubes, is installed inside the drying chamber body 1 to control the temperature within the drying chamber body 1 at 120-200℃. After drying, the next set of trays is pushed out of the drying chamber for unloading and collection.

[0028] In summary, this embodiment, by setting a chain track 2 inside the drying chamber body 1 and setting a material rake head 6 on the chain track 2, can intermittently cooperate well with the material tray 3 on the conveyor 4. The material rake head 6 can continuously tumble and rake the material, stirring and dispersing the material in the material tray 3, which is beneficial to improving drying efficiency.

[0029] The foregoing has shown and described the basic principles, main features, and advantages of this utility model. Those skilled in the art should understand that this utility model is not limited to the above embodiments. The embodiments and descriptions in the specification are merely illustrative of the principles of this utility model. Various changes and modifications can be made to this utility model without departing from its spirit and scope, and all such changes and modifications fall within the scope of the claims. The scope of protection of this utility model is defined by the appended claims and their equivalents.
