Description
Technical Field
[0001] This utility model relates to the field of wastewater treatment technology, specifically to a device for removing PVC particles floating in mother liquor water. Background Technology
[0002] Acetylene is an important chemical raw material widely used in organic synthesis, welding, and cutting. Acetylene production typically employs either calcium carbide hydrolysis or hydrocarbon cracking. The calcium carbide hydrolysis method involves reacting calcium carbide with water to produce acetylene gas and a mother liquor containing numerous byproducts. This mother liquor contains unreacted calcium carbide powder, calcium hydroxide, and other impurities, particularly suspended solids such as polyvinyl chloride (PVC) particles. The treatment of this mother liquor is a critical step in the acetylene production process. Direct discharge of untreated mother liquor not only causes severe environmental pollution but also leads to equipment blockage and reduced efficiency in subsequent water treatment systems.
[0003] Existing devices for removing PVC particles from mother liquor include sedimentation tanks using gravity sedimentation. While these can remove larger PVC particles, smaller PVC particles in the mother liquor are difficult to settle because they are adsorbed with microbubbles. To enable these devices to remove smaller PVC particles, we propose a device for removing PVC particles from mother liquor. Utility Model Content

[0025] 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 protection scope of the present utility model.
[0026] Please see Figure 1-6 This utility model provides a technical solution: a device for removing PVC particles floating in mother liquor water, including a process tank 1 and a sedimentation tank 4. Wastewater tank 2 and return tank 3 are respectively arranged on the left and right sides of the process tank 1. The sedimentation tank 4 is arranged in front of the process tank 1. The sedimentation tank 4 is fixedly connected from left to right with partition 1 23, partition 24 and partition 3 25.

The top of the left and right sides of the sedimentation tank 4 is respectively provided with water inlet 14 and water outlet 15. The input end of wastewater transfer pump 1 7 is fixedly connected to wastewater tank 2 through a pipe.
[0027] Wastewater transfer pump 7 is fixedly connected to an inlet pipe 10 at its output end, and the output end of the inlet pipe 10 is fixedly connected to an inlet 14. Wastewater transfer pump 8 is fixedly connected to a return tank 3 via a pipe, and the input end of wastewater transfer pump 8 is fixedly connected to a return pipe 11.

A material suction assembly is also installed on the top of the sedimentation tank 4.
[0028] When the device for removing PVC particles floating in mother liquor is in use, the mother liquor in the wastewater tank 2 on the left side of the process tank 1 is transported to the inlet pipe 10 by the wastewater transfer pump 7. Then, the mother liquor enters the settling tank 4 from the inlet 14 for settling treatment. The settling tank 4 is fixedly connected from left to right by partition 1 23, partition 24 and partition 3 25. The height of partition 1 23, partition 24 and partition 3 25 decreases from left to right, so as to perform step settling treatment for PVC particles floating in the mother liquor. In addition, a suction component is installed at the top of the settling tank 4 to adsorb and collect small PVC particles floating in the mother liquor that are difficult to settle in the settling tank 4. The treated wastewater enters the return pipe 11 through the outlet 15 and is transported to the return tank 3 on the right side of the process tank 1 by the wastewater transfer pump 2 8. The mother liquor in the return tank 3 is transported to the outlet pipe 13 by the wastewater transfer pump 3 9, so as to enter the next process.
[0029] The suction assembly includes a mounting frame 27. A threaded rod 17 is rotatably mounted on the top front side of the settling tank 4. A limiting rod 18 is fixedly mounted on the top rear side of the settling tank 4. The front part of the mounting frame 27 is threaded onto the threaded rod 17, and the rear part of the mounting frame 27 is slidably mounted onto the limiting rod 18. A drive motor 16 is fixedly mounted on the front left side of the settling tank 4. The output shaft end of the drive motor 16 is fixedly connected to the left end of the threaded rod 17. A suction cylinder 29 is provided on the bottom side of the mounting frame 27. A limiting rod 28 is fixedly connected to the front and rear sides of the top of the suction cylinder 29. The limiting rod 28 slides through the mounting frame 27. A threaded rod 30 is rotatably mounted on the middle top side of the suction cylinder 29, and the threaded rod 30 is also threaded through the mounting frame 27. A knob 31 is fixedly connected to the top of the threaded rod 30. A scraping mechanism is also installed on the suction cylinder 29. A collection mechanism is also provided on the right side of the settling tank 4.
[0030] The scraping mechanism includes a second drive motor 32, which is fixedly installed on the top rear side of the suction cylinder 29. A rotating rod 35 is rotatably connected between the front and rear sides of the suction cylinder 29. Several scraping plates 36 are fixedly sleeved on the rotating rod 35. Pulleys 34 are fixedly connected to the output shaft end of the second drive motor 32 and the rear end of the rotating rod 35. A belt 33 is tensioned and sleeved between the two sets of pulleys 34.
[0031] The collection mechanism includes a filter box 20 and a blower 37. The filter box 20 is located on the right side of the sedimentation tank 4, and the blower 37 is located on the right side of the filter box 20. A collection chamber 38 is located in the upper left corner of the interior of the filter box 20. Several filter holes 39 are opened through the right side and bottom side of the collection chamber 38. A connecting pipe 19 is fixedly connected to the top left side of the filter box 20. Several suction ports 26 are opened at the top of the suction cylinder 29. Several suction ports 26 are fixedly connected to the connecting pipe 19 through pipes. The input end of the blower 37 is fixedly connected to the right side of the filter box 20 through a pipe. A discharge door 21 is located in the upper left corner of the front side of the filter box 20, and a drain outlet 22 is located in the bottom front side of the filter box 20.
[0032] When using the suction assembly, first start the drive motor 32. Since the output shaft of the drive motor 32 and the rear end of the rotating rod 35 are both fixedly connected to the pulley 34, the belt 33 is tensioned and connected to rotate the rotating rod 35. The rotating rod 35 is rotated, and the scraper blades 36 fixedly connected to the rotating rod 35 scrape up the fine PVC particles floating on the surface of the settling tank 4. Then start the blower 37. The blower 37 creates a negative pressure inside the filter box 20. The negative pressure air passes through the connecting pipe 19 and sucks the PVC particles scraped up by the scraper blades 36 into the connecting pipe 19 through the several suction ports 26 opened at the top of the suction cylinder 29, thus entering the interior of the filter box 20. The collection chamber 38 in the upper corner collects the contents. Then, the drive motor 16 is started, which rotates the threaded rod 17. This causes the mounting bracket 27, which is threaded onto the threaded rod 17, to move left and right on the limiting rod 18. The mounting bracket 27, through the threaded rod 30 and the two sets of limiting rods 28, drives the suction cylinder 29 to move left and right, thereby adsorbing the PVC particles floating on the surface of the mother liquor in the sedimentation tank 4 over a wide area. By rotating the knob 31, the threaded rod 30 is rotated on the mounting bracket 27, causing the suction cylinder 29 to rise and fall on the limiting rods 28 to adapt to different liquid levels inside the sedimentation tank 4.
[0033] Several manhole doors 5 are provided at the bottom front side of the settling tank 4, which facilitates the cleaning of PVC particles that have settled and accumulated inside the settling tank 4.
[0034] A maintenance ladder 6 is provided on the left side of the settling tank 4 to facilitate the adjustment of the threaded rod 30 and the maintenance of the top mechanism of the settling tank 4.
[0035] A branch pipe 12 is also fixedly connected between the inlet pipe 10 and the return pipe 11. When there are no PVC particles floating in the mother liquor, the mother liquor in the wastewater tank 2 is transported to the return tank 3 through the branch pipe 12.
[0036] Working principle: When this device for removing PVC particles floating in mother liquor is in use, the mother liquor in the wastewater tank 2 on the left side of the process tank 1 is transported to the inlet pipe 10 by the wastewater transfer pump 7. Then the mother liquor enters the sedimentation tank 4 from the inlet 14 for sedimentation treatment. The sedimentation tank 4 is fixedly connected from left to right with partition 1 23, partition 24 and partition 3 25. The height of partition 1 23, partition 24 and partition 3 25 decreases from left to right, so as to perform step sedimentation treatment on the PVC particles floating in the mother liquor. At the same time, the drive motor 2 32 is started. Since the output shaft end of the drive motor 2 32 and the rear end of the rotating rod 35 are both fixedly connected to the pulley 34;
[0037] The belt 33 is tensioned, causing the rotating rod 35 to rotate. Several scraper blades 36 fixedly attached to the rotating rod 35 scrape up fine PVC particles floating on the surface of the settling tank 4. Then, the blower 37 is started, creating negative pressure inside the filter box 20. This negative pressure air flows through the connecting pipe 19, drawing the PVC particles scraped up by the scraper blades 36 into the connecting pipe 19 through several suction ports 26 at the top of the suction cylinder 29. The particles then enter the collection chamber 38 located in the upper left corner of the filter box 20 for collection. Finally, the drive motor 16 is started... The drive motor 16 rotates the threaded rod 17, causing the mounting bracket 27, which is threaded onto the threaded rod 17, to move left and right on the limiting rod 18. The mounting bracket 27 drives the suction cylinder 29 to move left and right through the threaded rod 30 and the two sets of limiting rods 28, thereby adsorbing and collecting PVC particles floating on the surface of the mother liquor in the sedimentation tank 4 over a wide area. By rotating the knob 31, the threaded rod 30 is driven to rotate on the mounting bracket 27, thereby causing the suction cylinder 29 to rise and fall on the limiting rods 28 to adapt to different liquid levels inside the sedimentation tank 4.
[0038] The treated wastewater enters the return pipe 11 through the outlet 15 and is then transported to the return tank 3 on the right side of the process tank 1 by the wastewater transfer pump 2 8. The mother liquor in the return tank 3 is then transported to the outlet pipe 13 by the wastewater transfer pump 3 9, thus entering the next process.
