[0028] To keep the following description of the embodiments of this utility model clear and concise, detailed descriptions of known functions and known components are omitted.

[0029] Example 1: Please refer to Figure 1-4 As shown, this embodiment provides a waste heat recovery device, mainly composed of a first waste heat recovery tank 1, a second waste heat recovery tank 2, a steam exhaust pipe 12, a water injection pipe 13, a water supply assembly, and corresponding gas pipelines.

[0030] In this embodiment, a first heating pipe 6 and a second heating pipe 7 are respectively installed inside the first waste heat recovery box 1 and the second waste heat recovery box 2. An air inlet pipe 4 is fixedly installed through one side of the first waste heat recovery box 1, for inputting high-heat gas. One end of the air inlet pipe 4 is fixedly connected to one end of the first heating pipe 6, which is fixedly installed inside the first waste heat recovery box 1. A first fixing pipe 8 is fixedly connected to the other end of the first heating pipe 6, and one end of the first fixing pipe 8 is fixedly installed through one side of the first waste heat recovery box 1. An air outlet pipe 5 is fixedly installed through one end of the second waste heat recovery box 2, for discharging the high-heat gas flowing through the first heating pipe 6 and the second heating pipe 7.

A common connecting pipe 10 is fixedly installed between the first fixing pipe 8 and the second fixing pipe 9, thereby completing the connection between the first heating pipe 6 and the second heating pipe 7.

[0031] In this embodiment, the first heating pipe 6 and the second heating pipe 7 have the same structure, both consisting of a straight heating pipe 18 and a spiral heating pipe 19. The straight heating pipe 18 is located inside the spiral heating pipe 19, and one end of the straight heating pipe 18 is connected to one end of the spiral heating pipe 19. This structural design ensures that the liquid inside the corresponding waste heat recovery tank is fully heated when the high-heat gas flows inside the pipe. Furthermore, both the first heating pipe 6 and the second heating pipe 7 are made of materials with good thermal conductivity.

[0032] In this embodiment, the steam discharge pipe 12 is fixedly inserted through the top of the first waste heat recovery tank 1, and its function is to discharge the steam generated in the first waste heat recovery tank 1. The water injection pipe 13 is fixedly inserted through the top of the second waste heat recovery tank 2, and is used to inject water into the second waste heat recovery tank 2.

[0033] In this embodiment, the water supply assembly includes a water supply pipe 15, a water pump 16, a drain pipe 14, and a solenoid valve 17. The drain pipe 14 is fixedly inserted through one side of the second waste heat recovery tank 2 and is used to discharge the preheated water to be used in the second waste heat recovery tank 2. One end of the water supply pipe 15 is fixedly connected to the outer wall of the drain pipe 14 and communicates with the drain pipe 14, while the other end of the water supply pipe 15 is fixedly inserted through one side of the first waste heat recovery tank 1.

When the water level in the first waste heat recovery tank 1 is lower than a set value, the liquid level sensor 21 will send a signal to start the water pump 16 and open the solenoid valve 17, so that water in the second waste heat recovery tank 2 can be pumped into the first waste heat recovery tank 1.

[0035] This application can be used in the field of sulfuric acid production from pyrite, or in other fields applicable to this application.

[0036] Example 2: Reference Figure 1 , 2 An improvement based on Example 1: a waste heat recovery device for the dry absorption section of pyrite-to-acid production, which is applied to the field of pyrite-to-acid production technology.

[0037] In this embodiment, the bottom of the first waste heat recovery box 1 and the second waste heat recovery box 2 are both fixedly installed with corresponding support frames 3 to facilitate the installation and fixation of the first waste heat recovery box 1 and the second waste heat recovery box 2.

[0038] In this embodiment, an external controller is provided for receiving the signal from level sensor 21. This controller is electrically connected to water pump 16 and solenoid valve 17, and can also control water pump 16 and solenoid valve 17. The controller has a built-in time relay to ensure that water pump 16 and solenoid valve 17 automatically close after being turned on for a period of time. Both the controller and level sensor 21 are the same as those in announcement number CN222733428U, and the time relay is the same as those in announcement number CN222731578U.

[0039] In this embodiment, a filter pipe 11 is fixedly installed at one end of the air inlet pipe 4. The filter pipe 11 is equipped with a filter screen, which is used to filter the high-heat gas that is about to flow through the first heating pipe 6 and the second heating pipe 7, so as to prevent impurities in the gas from entering the pipe and affecting the heating effect and normal operation of the device.

[0040] However, as is well known to those skilled in the art, the working principles and wiring methods of the water pump 16 and the solenoid valve 17 are commonplace and are conventional methods or common knowledge. They will not be described in detail here. Those skilled in the art can make any selections according to their needs or convenience.

[0041] The usage process and working principle of this utility model technical solution are as follows:

[0042] During use, the high-heat gas emitted during acid production first enters the filter pipe for filtration through a connected pipe, and then flows sequentially through the first heating pipe 6 and the second heating pipe 7 via the inlet pipe 4. During this flow, the high-heat gas transfers heat to the liquids in the first waste heat recovery tank 1 and the second waste heat recovery tank 2, achieving heat recovery and utilization. The high-heat gas initially has a high heat value; as it flows through the first heating pipe 6, the liquid in the first waste heat recovery tank 1 absorbs heat and generates steam. The steam is discharged through the steam outlet pipe 12 and can be used in other production processes. After initial heat recovery, the temperature of the high-heat gas decreases, and it then enters the second heating pipe 7. The second waste heat recovery tank 2 is continuously replenished with liquid to be used through the water injection pipe 13. The high-heat gas entering the second heating pipe 7 can further treat the corresponding liquids in the second waste heat recovery tank 2. The liquid is preheated and discharged through drain pipe 14, and can be used in subsequent processes as needed. When the water level in the first waste heat recovery tank 1 is lower than the set value, the liquid level sensor 21 will send a signal. At this time, the controller can control the water pump 16 to start and the solenoid valve 17 to open. The water in the second waste heat recovery tank 2 will be pumped to the first waste heat recovery tank 1 through the water supply pipe 15 to replenish the evaporation water in the first waste heat recovery tank 1. The controller is equipped with a time relay to ensure that the water pump 16 and the solenoid valve 17 stop working and close after working for a fixed period of time. At this time, the evaporation water in the first waste heat recovery tank 1 is replenished accordingly, which can ensure the stable operation of heat recovery. Through the above structure and working process, the waste heat recovery device can effectively recover and utilize the waste heat generated in the acid production process, improve energy utilization efficiency, and reduce production costs.

[0043] The accompanying drawings in this application are for illustrative purposes only. The dimensions and shapes of the components shown are not actual limitations but are merely schematic representations. In actual implementation, the components can be reasonably configured and adjusted according to specific needs and actual conditions.

[0044] It should be noted that in the description of this specification, descriptions such as "first" and "second" are only used to distinguish the features and do not have any actual order or directional meaning. This application is not limited to this.
