[0011] As shown in the attached diagram, a caustic soda flake feeding system for mepiquat chloride production includes a ground-based feeding station. The ground-based feeding station includes a feeding silo 1 with a feeding port and an opening / closing door 3. The opening / closing door has various forms in the prior art. A dust collector 2 is installed on the upper part of the feeding silo. The feeding silo is conical, and a conveying pipe 7 is connected to the bottom of the cone. The conveying pipe has a horizontal section 5. The connection between the bottom of the cone and the conveying pipe is near the front end of the horizontal section. The horizontal section of the conveying pipe is bent upwards and then connected to an upper feeding silo 8. A first air filter element 4 is installed at the front end of the horizontal section of the conveying pipe, and a second air filter element 6 is installed on the horizontal section after the connection between the conical bottom and the conveying pipe. The second air filter element 6 is installed on the top of the conveying pipe wall. The first air filter element and the second air filter element are in communication with the outside. The upper part of the feeding hopper 8 is closed, and a vacuum Roots blower 10 is connected to the feeding hopper. In this embodiment, a filter 9 is fixedly installed on the upper part of the feeding hopper, and the suction end of the vacuum Roots blower is connected to the filter, which can prevent dust from entering the vacuum Roots blower. The upper part of the feeding hopper is cylindrical, and the lower part is conical. A first pneumatic ball valve 11 is installed at the lower end of the conical part. A three-way valve is connected to the lower part of the first pneumatic ball valve. The feed of the three-way valve is connected to the discharge of the first pneumatic ball valve, and the discharge is connected to two flow pipes, namely the first flow pipe 13 and the second flow pipe 14. The first flow pipe extends to the top of the first reactor 19, and the second flow pipe extends to the top of the second reactor 18. A flap valve 12 is installed at the three-way valve. The flap valve controls the discharge of the first pneumatic ball valve to flow to the first flow pipe or the second flow pipe. A second pneumatic ball valve 17 is connected to the first flow pipe, and a third pneumatic ball valve 16 is connected to the second flow pipe. The discharges of the second and third pneumatic ball valves correspond to the first reactor valve and the second reactor, respectively. All the above-mentioned pneumatic ball valves and vacuum Roots blowers are connected to the controller. In this embodiment, pneumatic vibrators are installed on the feeding hopper, the loading hopper, and the two material flow pipes. The pneumatic vibrators are connected to a high-pressure air source and are controlled by a controller. During operation, the pneumatic vibrators can effectively prevent material blockage.
[0012] When the system is in operation, the first pneumatic ball valve closes, the vacuum Roots blower starts, and caustic soda flakes are added to the feeding hopper through the feeding port. The caustic soda flakes enter the horizontal section from the bottom of the feeding hopper. Under the suction of the vacuum Roots blower, air flows through the first and second air filters into the feeding hopper, carrying the caustic soda flakes into the feeding hopper. This process continuously delivers caustic soda flakes to the feeding hopper. After the material in the feeding hopper has been delivered, the vacuum Roots blower stops. If material is added to the first reactor, the first pneumatic ball valve and the flap valve are opened to close the second feed pipe channel, and the second electric ball valve is opened, allowing the material (caustic soda flakes) to fall into the first reactor. If material is added to the second reactor, the first pneumatic ball valve and the flap valve are opened to close the first feed pipe channel, and the third electric ball valve is opened, allowing the material (caustic soda flakes) to fall into the second reactor. This system can be operated in conjunction with manual inspection and monitoring.
