Technical Field
[0001] This utility model relates to the field of converter gas purification technology, and in particular to a converter flue gas dust removal and purification method.
[0002] Device. Background Technology
[0003] In the steelmaking process, the converter is an indispensable key piece of equipment, mainly used to remove impurities from molten iron and improve the quality of steel. However, the converter generates a large amount of flue gas during production, which contains a large amount of harmful substances such as dust, sulfur dioxide, and carbon monoxide. If these gases are directly emitted into the atmosphere without effective treatment, they will not only cause serious environmental pollution but also threaten human health.
[0004] Traditional methods for treating converter flue gas mainly include wet dust removal and dry dust removal. While wet dust removal has high dust removal efficiency, it suffers from problems such as high water consumption and difficulty in wastewater treatment. On the other hand, while dry dust removal saves water, its dust removal efficiency is relatively low, and the equipment is complex and has high maintenance costs. Therefore, developing a new type of converter flue gas dust removal and purification device that can both remove dust efficiently and save resources is particularly important.
[0005] Currently, although some converter flue gas dust removal and purification devices exist on the market, most of these devices suffer from problems such as low dust removal efficiency, insufficient resource recycling, and complex equipment maintenance. In particular, the design of the gas distribution mechanism and sedimentation tank module often suffers from uneven gas distribution and poor sedimentation effect, resulting in unsatisfactory purification effects and failing to meet increasingly stringent environmental protection requirements.
[0006] Therefore, in view of the shortcomings of the existing technology, this utility model proposes a new type of converter flue gas dust removal and purification device, which aims to improve the dust removal and purification efficiency, realize the recycling of resources, reduce operating costs, and meet environmental protection requirements by optimizing the design of the gas distribution mechanism and sedimentation tank module, thus providing strong support for the sustainable development of the iron and steel smelting industry.

[0030] To better understand the above technical solutions, the following will provide a detailed explanation of the technical solutions in conjunction with the accompanying drawings and specific implementation methods.
[0031] Example 1:
[0032] like Figure 1-3 As shown, a converter flue gas dust removal and purification device includes a frame 1, on which a spray purification tower module 2 is mounted. The spray purification tower module includes multiple spray purification towers connected in series. An induced draft fan 3 is connected to the outlet of the spray purification tower module. Each spray purification tower includes a vertical tank with an air inlet at the bottom and an air outlet at the top. A spray system is installed inside the vertical tank.
[0033] A demisting system is also installed directly below the spray system inside the tank. An air distribution mechanism 5 is installed at the inlet of the spray purification tower. The air distribution mechanism includes an air distribution plate 12, on which an air distribution main pipe 11 is installed. The air distribution main pipe is connected to multiple air distribution branch pipes 13. The air distribution main pipe is connected to the outlet end of the gasification cooling flue. The air distribution branch pipes are evenly distributed around the vertical tank. A liquid outlet is opened at the bottom of the spray purification tower. A sedimentation tank module is installed directly below the spray purification tower. The sedimentation tank module includes a primary sedimentation tank 4, a secondary sedimentation tank 25, and a clear water tank 6 connected in sequence. The spray system includes multiple layers of annular spray pipes installed axially around the vertical tank on the inner wall of the vertical tank. Spray nozzles are evenly distributed on the annular spray pipes. The water inlet end of the annular spray pipes is connected to the clear water tank in the sedimentation tank module through a liquid pump 9. The spray nozzles of adjacent layers of annular spray pipes are staggered.
[0034] The above design scheme: (1) Improves spray coverage and purification efficiency: By installing multiple layers of annular spray pipes around the axial direction on the inner wall of the vertical tank and evenly distributing the nozzles, it can be ensured that the flue gas is in full contact with the spray droplets during the rising process, thereby greatly improving the spray coverage. This design helps to capture particulate matter and pollutants in the flue gas more comprehensively and improve the purification efficiency. (2) Optimizes nozzle layout and enhances purification effect: The nozzle positions of adjacent two layers of annular spray pipes are staggered, which can form a denser spray network. This layout not only increases the contact opportunity between the spray droplets and the flue gas, but also effectively avoids spray blind spots, further enhancing the purification effect. Especially when dealing with high-concentration or highly viscous flue gas, this design can significantly improve the purification efficiency. (3) Realizes water resource recycling: The water inlet end of the annular spray pipe is connected to the clear water tank in the sedimentation tank module through a liquid pump, which means that the clear water after sedimentation treatment can be reused in the spray system. This design not only saves water resources, but also reduces the cost of wastewater treatment, which is in line with the concept of sustainable development. (4) Improved equipment reliability and ease of maintenance: The multi-layered annular spray pipe design allows each nozzle to work independently, so even if a nozzle fails, it will not affect the operation of the entire system. In addition, since the nozzles are evenly distributed on the inner wall of the vertical tank, the maintenance and repair of the equipment are more convenient.
[0035] The annular spray pipe 15 has two layers. The upper annular spray pipe is equipped with spiral nozzles 16, and the lower annular spray pipe is equipped with vortex nozzles. The spiral and vortex nozzles are installed at an angle downwards, with an angle of 15-30 degrees between their spray direction and the horizontal plane. The demisting system includes a plate demister 21 installed at the top of the spray purification tower along the exhaust direction, and a wire mesh demister.
[0036] The spray purification tower is equipped with a demister 22 and a support beam 20 corresponding to the plate demister and wire mesh demister. Rollers 24 are installed on both sides of the support beam. The spray purification tower is equipped with a guide rail 23 that cooperates with the rollers. A maintenance door is installed on the spray purification tower at the position corresponding to the support beam.
[0037] The above structural design has the following advantages: (1) Improved spraying efficiency and purification quality: By installing two layers of annular spray pipes and configuring spiral nozzles and vortex nozzles respectively, a more complex and effective spraying mode can be formed. Spiral nozzles and vortex nozzles can not only increase the kinetic energy of the spray droplets, but also promote the full mixing and collision of droplets and flue gas, thereby improving spraying efficiency and purification quality. The spraying direction of spiral nozzles and vortex nozzles is inclined downward and forms an angle of 15-30 degrees with the horizontal plane. This design helps to ensure that the spray droplets can evenly cover the entire interior of the vertical tank, while avoiding droplets directly impacting the top of the tank, reducing droplet splashing and waste. (2) Optimized demisting effect and reduced secondary pollution: The demisting system adopts a combination of plate demister and wire mesh demister, which can more effectively remove the mist and water droplets generated after spraying and prevent them from causing secondary pollution when discharged with flue gas. Plate demisters can initially remove larger water droplets, while wire mesh demisters can further capture tiny mist droplets, ensuring that the emitted flue gas meets environmental protection standards. (3) Easy maintenance and repair: The rollers installed on both sides of the support beam and the guide rails that cooperate with the rollers allow the plate demisters and wire mesh demisters to slide along the guide rails inside the spray purification tower, making maintenance and repair convenient. This design not only improves the reliability and stability of the equipment, but also reduces maintenance costs and time. The maintenance door installed on the spray purification tower at the position corresponding to the support beam allows staff to easily enter the tower to inspect and replace the demisting system, further improving the maintainability of the equipment.
[0038] (4) Strong adaptability and improved equipment flexibility: This optimized spraying and demisting system design is not only suitable for dust removal and purification of converter flue gas, but can also be flexibly adjusted according to actual needs to adapt to different scales and types of flue gas treatment requirements. Its high efficiency, energy saving and environmental protection features make this device have broad application prospects in the fields of iron and steel smelting, chemical industry, power industry and other industries.
[0039] An overflow plate 7 is installed between the primary sedimentation tank 4 and the secondary sedimentation tank, and an overflow plate 8 is installed between the secondary sedimentation tank and the clear water tank 6. This structural design improves sedimentation efficiency and water purification. The installation of overflow plate 7 between the primary and secondary sedimentation tanks, and overflow plate 8 between the secondary sedimentation tank and the clear water tank, facilitates staged treatment of the sedimentation process. Through this step-by-step process…
[0040] Sedimentation can more effectively remove suspended solids, particulate matter and other impurities from water, improving sedimentation efficiency and water purification effect; the overflow plate design can also ensure that the water flow is evenly distributed in the sedimentation tank, avoiding water flow short circuit or local overload, thereby further improving sedimentation quality.
[0041] The spray purification tower module has a heat exchange module installed at its air inlet. This module includes a vertical heat exchange cylinder 14 with multiple spirally installed vent pipes inside. A heat exchange chamber 10 is also installed within the cylinder. An inlet 17 and an outlet 18, connected to the heat exchange chamber, are installed on the outer wall of the heat exchange cylinder 14. A circulating pump and a water tank are connected to the inlet and outlet. This structure enables heat recovery and energy saving: the newly added heat exchange module utilizes the spiral vent pipe structure within the vertical heat exchange cylinder, allowing for thorough heat exchange between the flue gas and the water in the heat exchange chamber as the gas passes through. This design not only helps reduce the flue gas temperature but also achieves effective heat recovery. Water from the tank is pumped into the heat exchange chamber for heat exchange via the circulating pump, and the heated water is then returned to the tank or used in other heat-requiring processes, achieving energy recycling and reducing energy consumption and operating costs.
