Description
Technical Field
[0001] This utility model relates to the field of nitric acid purification technology, and more specifically, to a nitric acid purification device. Background Technology
[0002] In numerous fields such as chemical production and scientific research, the requirements for nitric acid purity are constantly increasing. However, existing nitric acid purification technologies and equipment have a series of problems. On the one hand, traditional purification equipment often relies on a single process, making it difficult to completely remove various impurities from nitric acid. This results in the purified nitric acid failing to meet the needs of high-end applications, such as electronic chip manufacturing and advanced chemical analysis, where extremely high purity requirements exist. Nitric acid produced by ordinary purification equipment is unsuitable for these fields. On the other hand, traditional equipment consumes a lot of energy, and the overall heating method leads to significant energy waste. In the current climate of rising energy costs, this undoubtedly increases the cost pressure on production enterprises. Moreover, traditional equipment has a complex structural design, cumbersome operation procedures, and high maintenance difficulty. It not only requires professional technicians for operation and maintenance but also increases the risk of equipment failure. Once a failure occurs, repair costs are high and production schedules are affected. In addition, nitric acid is highly corrosive, and ordinary equipment has poor corrosion resistance, making it easily corroded and damaged. This not only shortens the service life of the equipment but may also lead to nitric acid leakage, causing environmental pollution and safety hazards. Utility Model Content

Detailed Implementation
[0025] To make the objectives, technical solutions, and advantages of the embodiments of this utility model clearer, the technical solutions of the embodiments of this utility model will be clearly and completely described below with reference to the accompanying drawings. Obviously, the described embodiments are only some embodiments of this utility model, not all embodiments. Based on the embodiments of this utility model, all other embodiments obtained by those skilled in the art without creative effort are within the scope of protection of this utility model.
[0026] Please see Figures 1-5 The present invention provides a technical solution: a nitric acid purification device, comprising a raw material storage tank 110, a multi-stage oxidation device 120, and a high-efficiency distillation column 130. The multi-stage oxidation device 120 is connected to the raw material storage tank 110 and the high-efficiency distillation column 130 through a feed pipe 121 and a discharge pipe 122, respectively. The multi-stage oxidation device 120 is divided into a primary oxidation unit and a deep oxidation unit. The high-efficiency distillation column 130 is equipped with high-efficiency packing, and an exhaust pipe 131 is installed at the top of one side of the high-efficiency distillation column 130. A condenser 132 is installed in the exhaust pipe 131, and a finished product box 140 is installed at one end of the exhaust pipe 131. The high-efficiency distillation column 130 and the finished product box 140 are fixedly installed on a base plate 150, and a buffer pad is fixedly installed at the bottom of the base plate 150.
[0027] In some specific implementations, the primary oxidation unit includes oxidation reaction nozzles 123. Multiple uniformly distributed oxidation reaction nozzles 123 are installed on one side of the inner wall of the multi-stage oxidation device 120. One end of each oxidation reaction nozzle 123 is connected to an oxidant addition pipe 124, which is fixedly installed on the outside of the multi-stage oxidation device 120. The feed end of the oxidation reaction nozzle 123 penetrates one side of the multi-stage oxidation device 120 and is connected to the oxidant addition pipe 124. The multiple uniformly distributed nozzles allow the oxidant to be more evenly dispersed in nitric acid, greatly increasing the contact area between the oxidant and nitric acid, allowing the oxidation reaction to proceed more fully. This helps to remove impurities from nitric acid more efficiently, significantly improving the oxidation and impurity removal efficiency of the primary oxidation unit, providing higher-quality raw materials for subsequent purification processes, and ensuring the purification effect of the entire nitric acid purification device.
[0028] In some specific implementations, the deep oxidation unit includes an oxidation reaction filter 125. The oxidation reaction filters 125 are symmetrically and alternately fixedly installed on both sides of the inner wall of the multi-stage oxidation device 120, and are inclined. A screening hole is provided on one side of the multi-stage oxidation device 120, and one end of the lower oxidation reaction filter 125 passes through the screening hole and extends to the outside. The inclined filter facilitates the natural sliding of impurities under gravity. The symmetrical and staggered installation increases the contact path and time between nitric acid and the filter, making the oxidation reaction more complete and further improving the removal effect of impurity ions. The design of the screening hole facilitates the discharge of impurities, preventing impurities from accumulating inside the device and affecting the purification effect and equipment operation, ensuring the continuous and stable operation of the deep oxidation unit. A collection box 126 is fixedly installed at the bottom of one side of the multi-stage oxidation device 120, and the collection box 126 is located directly below the screening hole. It can collect impurities discharged from the screening holes in a timely manner, preventing impurities from being re-mixed into nitric acid and causing secondary pollution. At the same time, it facilitates centralized cleaning of impurities, simplifies the equipment maintenance process, improves the cleanliness and operational stability of the entire purification unit, and ensures the purity and quality of nitric acid purification.
[0029] In some specific implementation schemes, a heating module 133 is fixed to the inner wall of the high-efficiency distillation column 130. The heating module 133 consists of a heating element, insulation material, a temperature sensor, and a control circuit. The heating power is controlled by adjusting the current of the heating element through the control circuit, and precise temperature control is achieved by monitoring the temperature through the temperature sensor. In the nitric acid purification unit, it promotes nitric acid vaporization, maintains the gas-liquid balance within the distillation column, and adapts to the heating needs of different parts of the column. This is crucial for improving nitric acid purity and reducing energy consumption. The high-efficiency packing uses PP conjugated ring / yoke ring packing. The precise temperature control of the heating module provides appropriate heat to the nitric acid according to the distillation requirements, promoting nitric acid vaporization, maintaining the gas-liquid balance within the distillation column, adapting to the heating needs of different parts of the column, and reducing energy consumption. The unique structure of the PP conjugated ring / yoke ring packing increases the gas-liquid contact area, improves mass transfer performance, and enhances the distillation effect. The synergistic effect of these two factors significantly improves the distillation efficiency and purity of nitric acid.
[0030] In some specific implementations, a first rotating shaft 134 is fixedly installed between the two sides of the inner wall of the high-efficiency distillation column 130. Multiple stirring rods 135 are fixedly installed on the first rotating shaft 134. A motor 136 is fixedly installed on the outside of the high-efficiency distillation column 130. The output end of the motor 136 passes through the high-efficiency distillation column 130 and is fixedly connected to one end of the first rotating shaft 134. The first rotating shaft 134 is located at the center of the high-efficiency distillation column 130. The motor 136 drives the first rotating shaft 134 to rotate, causing the stirring rods 135 to stir the nitric acid mixture inside the column. The stirring action allows nitric acid to be heated more evenly, accelerates the vaporization rate of nitric acid, enhances the gas-liquid mass transfer process, effectively improves the distillation efficiency in the distillation column, makes the separation of nitric acid and impurities more thorough, and further improves the purity of the purified nitric acid. A second rotating shaft 137 is rotatably installed at the top of the inner wall of the high-efficiency distillation column 130. A first bevel gear is fixedly installed at the bottom of the second rotating shaft 137. A second bevel gear is fixedly installed on the first rotating shaft 134. The first bevel gear and the second bevel gear are meshed and connected. The top of the second rotating shaft 137 passes through the high-efficiency distillation column 130, the multi-stage oxidation device 120, and one of the oxidation reaction filters 125. Two beaters 138 are fixedly installed on the second rotating shaft 137. The beaters 138 cooperate with the adjacent oxidation reaction filters 125. When the second rotating shaft 137 rotates, it drives the beaters 138 to beat the oxidation reaction filters 125. A protective box is fixedly installed at the top of the inner wall of the high-efficiency distillation column 130. The first bevel gear and the second bevel gear are installed in the protective box. This design can promptly shake off impurities adhering to the filter screen surface, prevent filter screen blockage, maintain the filter screen's permeability and activity, ensure the oxidation reaction proceeds continuously and efficiently, maintain the stable operation of the multi-stage oxidation unit, and thus guarantee the purification effect and production efficiency of the entire nitric acid purification unit.
[0031] In some specific implementation schemes, a whitening pipe 139 is fixedly installed inside the vent pipe 131. The whitening pipe 139 is U-shaped and has multiple round holes. One end of the whitening pipe 139 passes through one side of the vent pipe 131 and is fixedly installed with a connector. One end of the connector is connected to the inert gas pipe. The U-shaped design increases the residence time of the inert gas in the vent pipe, and the round holes allow the inert gas to be evenly dispersed in the nitric acid vapor, which can more thoroughly remove residual nitrogen oxides and other volatile impurities, further improving the purity of nitric acid and ensuring that the nitric acid entering the finished product box 140 is of higher quality, meeting the strict purity requirements of nitric acid in high-end application scenarios.
[0032] In some specific implementation schemes, a drawer box 141 is slidably installed inside the finished product box 140. A handle is installed on one side of the drawer box 141. This design facilitates the handling and storage management of purified nitric acid. Operators can easily pull out or push the drawer box 141 through the handle, which makes it easy to accurately control the amount of nitric acid used, while avoiding contamination of nitric acid during handling, thus improving the convenience and safety of operation.
[0033] Working principle: Oxidation and impurity removal stage: The nitric acid to be purified is stored in the raw material storage tank 110. The nitric acid flows into the primary oxidation unit of the multi-stage oxidation device 120 through the feed pipe 121. In the primary oxidation unit, the oxidant is sprayed into the nitric acid through the oxidant addition pipe 124 by multiple evenly distributed oxidation reaction nozzles 123, where it is fully mixed with the nitric acid to oxidize and remove some impurities.
[0034] The oxidized nitric acid enters the deep oxidation unit, where inclined oxidation reaction filters 125 are symmetrically and alternately fixed on both sides of the inner wall. As the nitric acid flows through the oxidation reaction filters 125, impurity ions are further removed under the catalytic oxidation effect of the filters. The precipitates or complexes formed after the impurity ions react slide down the inclined filters, pass through the screening holes on one side of the multi-stage oxidation device 120, and fall into the collection box 126 directly below the screening holes, thus achieving separation from the nitric acid.
[0035] Distillation and Separation Stage: After oxidation and impurity removal, the nitric acid enters the high-efficiency distillation column 130 through the discharge pipe 122. The heating module 133, fixed to the inner wall of the high-efficiency distillation column 130, begins operation. The heating module 133 controls the heating power by adjusting the current of the heating element through a control circuit, and precise temperature control is achieved by monitoring the temperature with a temperature sensor. The heat generated by the heating module 133 promotes the vaporization of nitric acid, maintaining the gas-liquid balance within the distillation column. Simultaneously, the PP conjugate ring / yoke-shaped ring packing inside the high-efficiency distillation column 130 increases the gas-liquid contact area, improving distillation efficiency. Furthermore, the motor 136 drives the first rotating shaft 134 to rotate, and the stirring rod 135 on the first rotating shaft 134 rotates accordingly, stirring the nitric acid mixture and ensuring more uniform heating of the nitric acid, further enhancing the distillation effect.
[0036] Whitening and Collection Stage: Nitric acid vapor after distillation is discharged through outlet pipe 131. Within outlet pipe 131, it is cooled and condensed into liquid by condenser 132. Inert gas is then introduced through U-shaped whitening pipe 139. The circular holes on whitening pipe 139 ensure uniform dispersion and reaction of the inert gas. Finally, it flows into finished product box 140 for storage. Drawer box 141 inside finished product box 140 allows for easy removal of stored nitric acid, and a handle on one side of drawer box 141 facilitates operation. The entire device is mounted on base plate 150, and the buffer pad at the bottom of base plate 150 acts as a shock absorber, reducing the impact of vibrations generated during operation on the equipment and the surrounding environment.
