TECHNICAL FIELD
[0001] The utility model belongs to absorber technical field, especially a low temperature waste steam absorber device. BACKGROUND
[0002] Waste heat energy recycling is an important branch in the field of energy saving and environmental protection. China's industrial waste heat resources are rich, especially in coal-fired power generation, steel, non-ferrous, chemical industry, cement, building materials, petroleum and petrochemical, light industry and other industries, waste heat resources account for about 17% to 67% of total fuel consumption, among which about 60% of the total waste heat resources can be recycled, and the waste heat utilization has great potential. For example, in the thermal power industry, coal-fired power plants burn a large amount of coal during operation, and the generated heat energy is mainly used for power generation and heating, but a large amount of waste heat is discharged into the atmosphere with flue gas after desulfurization. Due to the presence of a large amount of pollutants and impurities in the flue gas, there are serious corrosion and blockage problems, and it is impossible to use conventional closed absorption method for heat exchange.
[0003] Absorption heat pump is a kind of heat driven device, which realizes the "transportation" or "temperature rise" of heat energy through absorption-desorption cycle. Its core function is to absorb heat from low temperature heat source and transfer heat to high temperature user end with external driving heat source, realizing efficient utilization of heat energy, which is an effective device for recycling low temperature heat energy. Absorption heat pump can be divided into closed heat pump and open heat pump, and at present, closed heat pump is widely used. However, compared with closed heat pump, open heat pump has the advantages of simple structure, flexible absorption agent replacement, direct use of environmental medium, efficient treatment of low concentration pollutants, reduction of secondary pollution and other advantages.
[0004] Closed absorption heat pump adopts full closed cycle, and water-lithium bromide working pair is used as the core. Low temperature waste heat enters the evaporator to evaporate and absorb heat of the refrigerant, and the generated water vapor is absorbed by the lithium bromide concentrated solution in the absorber and releases heat. Then, the dilute solution is heated by the external high temperature heat source to regenerate, and the separated water vapor is condensed in the condenser to release heat, and the liquid water returns to the evaporator after throttling to circulate. The working medium is completely closed, depends on high temperature driving heat source, and is suitable for industrial waste heat recovery and high temperature heating. While open absorption heat pump directly interacts with environmental medium, and flash steam directly contacts with concentrated solution, water vapor is absorbed and releases heat. The dilute solution is regenerated by waste heat, water is evaporated and discharged, and the solution restores the concentration for recycling. The working medium is partially open, can use low grade heat source, and is suitable for low temperature waste heat recovery. Therefore, open absorption heat pump can be used to recycle low quality energy in low temperature waste steam such as coal-fired power plant desulfurization flue gas.
[0005] In view of the problems of low contact area between traditional absorber working medium and waste steam and low mass transfer efficiency, a low temperature waste steam absorber device is provided. Utility model content

However, it is obvious for those skilled in the art that the utility model can be implemented without one or more of these details. In other examples, some technical features known in the art are not described to avoid confusion with the utility model.
