Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This utility model relates to the field of thermal technology, and more specifically to a wastewater discharge tank for a waste heat boiler. Background Technology
[0002] A steam boiler is a common heat exchange device and a special type of pressure vessel used to produce saturated steam or superheated steam. Its main heating medium is water, and various heat sources or waste heat resources can be used as the heating medium. Waste heat boilers are widely used in the recovery of waste heat from low-temperature flue gas and low-temperature water sources at the kiln tail in industries such as metallurgy, coking, and furnaces.
[0003] In the production and application of waste heat boilers, to ensure the normal operation of the boiler, the boiler water with a high salt concentration on the surface of the steam-water separator inside the boiler drum (or steam drum) must be drained. This is called boiler drum surface blowdown. In addition, during operation, the evaporator of the waste heat boiler forms insoluble sludge at the bottom of the furnace, which needs to be drained at regular intervals. Therefore, boilers are generally designed with a corresponding blowdown rate of 2%-10% depending on the pressure and operating conditions. Whether it is continuous blowdown of the boiler drum surface or periodic blowdown of the furnace bottom, the boiler water with high temperature and pressure generated must meet the conditions of cooling and depressurization when discharged.
[0004] Waste heat boilers typically produce medium- and low-pressure steam in relatively small quantities. They occupy a subordinate position in the main process flow of industries such as metallurgy, coking, and kilns, and are generally designed and constructed as auxiliary processes. Therefore, they are usually equipped with separate control and water treatment systems. A water treatment and feedwater workshop needs to be built near the waste heat boiler, with a separate intermediate wastewater tank. Currently, wastewater tanks typically have water entering from the top and exiting from the bottom. During operation, the incoming water impacts the bottom plate of the wastewater tank, which may damage the bottom plate over time. Utility Model Content
[0005] One advantage of this invention is that it provides a waste heat boiler wastewater tank with two inlet pipes of different lengths. On the one hand, this can prevent water inrush, and on the other hand, after the wastewater level rises, switching to the shorter pipe for water inflow can prevent the problem of slow or difficult water inflow due to excessive water pressure.

[0023] The first embodiment of this utility model is as follows:
[0024] A waste heat boiler wastewater tank includes a rectangular frame 3, a bottom plate at the bottom of the frame 3, several side plates evenly installed on the four sides of the frame 3, and a top plate at the top of the frame 3. The frame 3, bottom plate, side plates 5 and top plate form a tank for containing wastewater. A water inlet component is provided on the frame 3 to inject wastewater into the tank. A drain outlet 19 is provided at the bottom end of the bottom plate to discharge wastewater.
[0025] The top plate is equipped with a vent 6 that communicates with the box body. When sewage is discharged, the internal air pressure increases and the internal air is discharged through the vent 6. The top plate is equipped with a manhole that communicates with the box body. A manhole cover 15 is hinged to the manhole. An internal ladder 16 is installed inside the box near the manhole, and an external ladder 18 is installed outside the box near the manhole, which facilitates workers to climb in and out for internal and external maintenance.
[0026] The box is also equipped with several support rods. The upper end of the support rods is equipped with a top support 14 and is connected to the frame 3 through the top support 14. The support rods strengthen the internal structure. Several tie rods 17 are arranged horizontally inside the box. Both ends of the tie rods 17 are connected to the frame 3 to hold the side of the frame 3 and prevent the side plate 5 from being damaged by pressure due to internal sewage pressure. Sealing gaskets are set between the frame 3 and the bottom plate, and between the side plate 5 and the top plate to prevent sewage leakage.
[0027] The tank is equipped with a level gauge 13 for measuring the water level inside the tank.
[0028] An overflow port 7 is provided on the upper side of the top side panel 5. When too much sewage is injected, the sewage will be discharged from the overflow port 7 to prevent the tank from being damaged due to excessive pressure caused by too much sewage.
[0029] The bottom of the frame 3 is provided with a base 2, and the lower end of the base 2 is provided with several legs 1 to support the box and facilitate the discharge of sewage.
[0030] The water inlet assembly includes a main pipe 10, with a long pipe 8 and a short pipe 12 connected to the lower end of the main pipe 10. The upper ends of the long pipe and the short pipe 12 are respectively connected to a first valve 9 and a second valve 11. The long pipe 8 extends to the top of the bottom plate, and the short pipe 12 extends to the bottom of the top plate. A controller is also provided, which is electrically connected to the first valve 9, the second valve 11, and the level gauge 13. When the water level in the tank is low, the second valve 11 is closed and the first valve 9 is opened, and the sewage is discharged into the tank from the long pipe 8. At this time, the sewage impact is very small. As the water level rises, the water pressure resistance at the outlet of the long pipe 8 increases, and the water discharge becomes difficult. At this time, the second valve 11 is opened and the first valve 9 is closed, and the sewage is discharged into the tank from the short pipe 12.
[0031] It should be noted that the terms "first, second, and third" used in this utility model are for descriptive purposes only and do not indicate any order. They should not be construed as indicating or implying relative importance, and can be interpreted as names.
