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 scope of protection of the present utility model. Specific Implementation Example 1:
[0030] Please see Figure 1-7 As shown, this utility model is a composite membrane reactor for mercury removal from flue gas, including a self-replacing filter element air guide tower 1, a multi-membrane integrated filter element 2, a telescopic replacement plate 3, an electric telescopic rod 4, and an end cap 5. The self-replacing filter element air guide tower 1 includes a rectangular replacement tank 11 with one end open and horizontally inserted into the telescopic replacement plate 3. A first air guide pipe 12 is fixedly fixed through the upper wall of the rectangular replacement tank 11. A second air guide pipe 13 is fixedly fixed through the lower wall of the rectangular replacement tank 11, and the second air guide pipe 13 is coaxially arranged with the first air guide pipe 12. The part of the inner wall of the rectangular replacement tank 11 that meets the second air guide pipe 13 has a chamfer. A feed pipe 14 is fixedly fixed through one end of the upper wall of the rectangular replacement tank 11 adjacent to the opening. A recovery pipe 15 is fixedly fixed through the lower wall of the rectangular replacement tank 11 away from the opening. An end cap 5 is threadedly connected to the end of the feed pipe 14 and the end of the recovery pipe 15 respectively. Several multi-membrane integrated filter elements 2 are stacked inside the feed pipe 14. The electric telescopic rod 4 is fixed to one side of the rectangular replacement trough 11. The telescopic end of the electric telescopic rod 4 is fixed to the telescopic replacement plate 3.
[0031] The rectangular replacement tank 11 is equipped with a vibration motor, which can provide vibration assistance during the filter element replacement process, making it easier for the filter element to fall out of the tank.
[0032] The multi-membrane integrated filter element 2 includes an annular groove 21, a ventilation cap 22, honeycomb mesh partitions 23, and a composite membrane 24. The outer diameter of the annular groove 21 is larger than the inner diameter of the second air guide pipe 13. The outer diameter of the annular groove 21 is larger than the inner diameter of the first air guide pipe 12. A ventilation window 25 is provided on the bottom surface of the annular groove 21. Several layers of honeycomb mesh partitions 23 are installed inside the annular groove 21, and a composite membrane 24 is provided between two adjacent layers of honeycomb mesh partitions 23. The ventilation cap 22 is threaded to the inside of the opening end of the annular groove 21. A first chamfer is provided on the outer annular edge at the upper end of the annular groove 21. A second chamfer is provided on the outer annular edge at the lower end of the annular groove 21. The manufacturing process of the composite membrane 24 includes vacuum filtration, impregnation, phase inversion, washing, and drying. The specific process includes the following steps: (a) dispersing multi-walled carbon nanotube powder in deionized water and treating it with an ultrasonic cell disruptor to ensure uniform dispersion; (b) uniformly dispersing multi-walled carbon nanotubes on the surface of nonwoven fabric through vacuum filtration to form a thin skeleton; (c) adding aniline and polyvinylidene fluoride to N-methylpyrrolidone solution (NMP) to prepare a mixed organic solution; (d) immersing the film in the mixed organic solution; (e) adding ammonium persulfate and sodium dodecylbenzenesulfonate (SDBS) to sulfuric acid solution to prepare a polymerization initiator solution; (f) immersing the film in the polymerization initiator solution, where the phase inversion initiated by polyvinylidene fluoride and the polymerization reaction initiated by ammonium persulfate occur simultaneously; (g) washing the polymerized film with anhydrous ethanol and deionized water, and drying it in a vacuum drying oven to obtain the finished film; (h) impregnating the finished film with an acidic solution containing chloride ions, washing and drying it to finally obtain the effective film.
[0033] The telescopic replacement plate 3 includes a rectangular insert plate 31 that mates with the inner cavity of the rectangular replacement groove 11. The rectangular insert plate 31 has a circular through-hole 32 that mates with the multi-membrane integrated filter element 2. Both the upper and lower ends of the circular through-hole 32 have a third chamfer. A connecting end plate 33 is fixed to the outer end of the rectangular insert plate 31. The telescopic end of the electric telescopic rod 4 is fixed to the connecting end plate 33.
[0034] A guide rod 34 is fixed on the connecting end plate 33. A guide cylinder 16 that cooperates with the guide rod 34 is fixed on the other side wall of the rectangular replacement groove 11. Fixing the guide rod 34 on the connecting end plate 33 and fixing the guide cylinder 16 that cooperates with the guide rod 34 on the other side wall of the rectangular replacement groove 11 can improve the stability and accuracy of the movement of the telescopic replacement plate 3.
[0035] The rectangular replacement tank 11 has a rectangular annular groove 17 at its open end. Several threaded blind holes 18 are formed on the bottom surface of the rectangular annular groove 17. A rubber ring 6, which seals against the rectangular insert plate 31, is installed inside the rectangular annular groove 17. The rubber ring 6 is secured by an annular flange plate 7 and several countersunk bolts. The presence of the rectangular annular groove 17 at the open end of the rectangular replacement tank 11, and the installation of the rubber ring 6 within it, secured by the annular flange plate 7 and several countersunk bolts, ensures the reactor's sealing performance during operation.
[0036] Material preparation and installation: First, open the end cap 5 at the end of the material preparation tube 14, and stack multiple multi-membrane integrated filter elements 2 into the material preparation tube 14 in sequence. Then, close the end cap 5 and tighten it.
[0037] Flue gas treatment: When the flue gas enters the rectangular replacement tank 11 from the first gas guide pipe 12, it passes through the composite membrane 24 in the multi-membrane integrated filter element 2. The composite membrane 24 adsorbs and separates the mercury in the flue gas. The treated flue gas is discharged from the second gas guide pipe 13.
[0038] Filter replacement: When the multi-membrane integrated filter element 2 reaches saturation or needs replacement, activate the electric telescopic rod 4. The electric telescopic rod 4 first retracts, causing the telescopic replacement plate 3 to move towards the recovery pipe 15, discharging the old multi-membrane integrated filter element 2 through the recovery pipe 15. Then, the electric telescopic rod 4 extends, causing the telescopic replacement plate 3 to move towards the material preparation pipe 14, and the new multi-membrane integrated filter element 2 falls back into the circular through hole 32. Then, the electric telescopic rod 4 retracts again until the circular through hole 32 is coaxial with the first air guide pipe 12, completing the replacement of the multi-membrane integrated filter element 2. When replenishing material, open the end cap 5 at the end of the material preparation pipe 14, add a new multi-membrane integrated filter element 2, and complete the replacement process. When cleaning the used multi-membrane integrated filter element 2, open the end cap 5 at the lower end of the recovery pipe 15, remove all the multi-membrane integrated filter elements 2 inside, and then reinstall the end cap 5.
