In addition, the terms "first" and "second" are only for the purpose of description, and cannot be understood as indicating or implying relative importance.

[0019] In the description of the utility model, it is necessary to explain, unless another explicit provision and limitation, the term "installation", "set with", "connection" and so on, should do broad sense understanding, for example "connection", can be fixed connection, also can be detachable connection, or integrally connected;Can be mechanical connection, also can be electrical connection;Can be directly connected, also can be indirectly connected through the intermediate medium, can be the intercommunication of two elements inside.For the ordinary skilled person in the art, the specific meaning of the above-mentioned terms in the utility model can be understood according to the specific circumstances.

[0020] Please refer to the attached Figure 1 The utility model provides a kind of full-process gas circulating device for chemical absorption, comprising gas storage tank 1, flue gas fan 2, absorption tower 3, regeneration tower 5 and regeneration gas compressor 7 specifically;

[0021] Air compressor 8 and carbon dioxide steel bottle 9 are connected with gas storage tank 1, for providing carbon dioxide and air into gas storage tank 1;

[0022] Flue gas fan 2 is connected with gas storage tank 1 and absorption tower 3, for pumping the carbon dioxide and air in gas storage tank 1 into absorption tower 3;Decarburization flue gas generated in absorption tower 3 is transmitted into gas storage tank 1 by pipeline;

[0023] Absorption tower 3 is connected with regeneration tower 5 by lean-rich liquid heat exchanger 4, for sending rich liquid from the bottom of absorption tower 3 into regeneration tower 5 through lean-rich liquid heat exchanger 4;And send lean liquid from the bottom of regeneration tower 5 into absorption tower 3 through lean-rich liquid heat exchanger 4;

[0024] One end of regeneration gas compressor 7 is connected with regeneration tower 5, and the other end is connected with gas storage tank 1 through one-way valve 6, for pumping carbon dioxide in regeneration tower 5 into gas storage tank 1.

[0025] Through the device, the amount of carbon dioxide consumed in the experimental process can be reduced, and the experimental cost is saved;By setting regeneration gas compressor 7 and one-way valve 6, the recovery of carbon dioxide is realized, and the gas in gas storage tank 1 from entering regeneration tower 5 to affect the experimental process is avoided.

[0026] In the embodiment, two pipelines are provided at the top of gas storage tank 1, one is used for recovering decarburization flue gas in absorption tower 3, and the other is used for recovering carbon dioxide generated in regeneration tower 5, and the carbon dioxide concentration in air will affect the efficiency of subsequent absorption process. Carbon dioxide sensor can be installed to monitor the carbon dioxide concentration in gas storage tank 1 and the change of carbon dioxide concentration in absorption tower in real time, so as to dynamically adjust the mixing ratio of gas, maintain the appropriate concentration of carbon dioxide in absorption tower, and ensure the efficient operation of the system.

[0027] In use, through the two-way pipeline at the top of the gas storage tank 1, carbon dioxide in the regeneration tower 5 can be recovered in time, effectively reducing carbon emissions during the experiment, saving a lot of resources, and through the setting of the regeneration gas compressor and the one-way valve and other devices, efficient recovery of carbon dioxide is realized, and the utilization efficiency of the equipment is improved.

[0028] In actual operation, the temperature change of the chemical absorption process will have a significant impact on the reaction efficiency and the absorption capacity of carbon dioxide. Heat management devices such as heat exchangers or cooling systems can be added between the absorption tower 3 and the regeneration tower 5 to keep the temperature within the optimal range, avoiding the impact of high or low temperature on gas absorption and decarburization efficiency. For example, using a heat exchanger between the absorption tower 3 and the regeneration tower 5, the heat in the rich liquid is recovered, the energy efficiency is improved, and the overall energy consumption of the system is reduced.

[0029] In the gas circulation system, the control of gas flow and pressure is crucial. Flow meters and pressure sensors can be introduced to monitor the gas flow and pressure of the absorption tower 3 and the regeneration tower 5 in real time, ensuring that the system is always in the best operating condition. According to the pressure change, the working state of the pump and the compressor is automatically adjusted to optimize the efficiency of the gas circulation;

[0030] During the heat exchange process between the rich liquid and the lean liquid, the performance of the absorption liquid can be further optimized. For example, regularly check and replace the absorption liquid, or improve the absorption capacity of the absorption liquid by adding chemical additives to increase the absorption efficiency of carbon dioxide. At the same time, the recycling of the absorption liquid can be explored, such as cleaning and regeneration after each experimental period to reduce the consumption of chemical reagents and prolong the service life of the liquid;

[0031] The regeneration process usually consumes a certain amount of heat energy. The introduction of a waste heat recovery system uses the heat generated by the regeneration tower 5 to heat the absorption tower 3 or other parts that require heat energy, thereby realizing closed-loop utilization of energy and reducing overall energy consumption. If there is a large amount of low-grade heat source in the system, heat pump technology or adsorption cooling technology can be used to further improve the heat energy utilization efficiency of the system.

[0032] In this embodiment, the entire gas circulation system is integrated with an automatic control system, and a PLC control system is used to coordinate and control each link: for example, automatically adjusting the working state of the air compressor 8 and the regeneration gas compressor 7, and real-time adjusting the gas flow, pressure, temperature and other parameters to maximize the utilization rate of the gas;

[0033] The gas storage tank, pipeline and other equipment in contact with carbon dioxide are made of corrosion-resistant materials to avoid corrosion of the equipment under the condition of long-term contact with high-concentration carbon dioxide gas. At the same time, a regular equipment maintenance and inspection mechanism is established to ensure long-term stable operation of the system.

[0034] Furthermore, it should be understood that although the specification is described in terms of embodiments, not every embodiment includes every feature described. The specification can include implicit combinations of explicitly mentioned features and / or explicit combinations of implicitely mentioned features. Each embodiment depends on the explicit combinations of features and / or the implicit combinations of features made specifically within that embodiment, and each such embodiment can be combined with every other such embodiment to create further embodiments.
