Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This utility model relates to the field of waste gas treatment technology, and in particular to a secondary reflux absorption tower for waste gas in the production process of mineral-derived nitrohumic acid. Background Technology
[0002] Humic acid is a large-molecule organic substance widely found in nature, with extensive applications in agriculture, forestry, animal husbandry, petroleum, chemical industry, building materials, medicine and health, environmental protection, and other fields. Humic acid is a class of organic substances formed and accumulated from the decomposition and transformation of plant and animal remains by microorganisms and through a series of geochemical processes. Currently, the humic acid resources that can be developed and utilized are some low-calorific-value coals, such as peat, lignite, and weathered coal. While nitric acid's strong oxidizing properties make it widely applicable to dry leaching processes for non-metallic minerals, nitric acid itself is reduced to various gaseous components, primarily nitric oxide and nitrogen dioxide, while oxidizing lignite. Nitric oxide is further oxidized to nitrogen dioxide upon contact with air. Nitrogen dioxide is yellow in air, commonly known as "yellow smoke," which severely pollutes the environment. Furthermore, the highly vigorous reaction of nitric acid generates a large amount of heat, even causing liquids to boil, which not only exacerbates the production of yellow smoke but also causes the gas to expand and escape more easily.
[0003] Patent application number 202221211735.5 discloses a fluidized dry process system for producing mineral-derived nitrohumic acid and nitrofulvic acid. This system treats nitrogen dioxide generated during the reaction using a two-stage absorption tower, absorbs the gas using a spiral spray layer and a backwash layer, and promotes nitrogen dioxide absorption through a catalytic module, ultimately meeting environmental protection requirements. However, the reflux pipeline in this scheme is mainly used for the recovery and reuse of nitric acid, but it does not fully utilize the incompletely treated gas. For extremely high concentrations of nitrogen dioxide or other harmful gases, incomplete treatment may still exist. Utility Model Content
