[0006] To achieve the above objectives, this utility model adopts the following technical solution: a microreactor for preparing iron phosphate, comprising:
[0007] The outer shell has an inner liner fixedly installed inside it, and a delivery pipe connecting the inner liner chamber is fixedly installed at each end of the outer shell.
[0008] A separator assembly, detachably installed within the inner cavity, is used to guide reactants. The separator assembly includes a first guide fluid, a second guide fluid, and a third guide fluid connected end to end, which together form a tapered, gradually shrinking channel.
[0009] In a preferred embodiment of this utility model, the first fluid guide, the second fluid guide, and the third fluid guide are all funnel-shaped structures, and the first fluid guide, the second fluid guide, and the third fluid guide together form a funnel-shaped shell.

[0015] Beneficial effects
[0016] This invention provides a microreactor for the preparation of ferric phosphate. It has the following beneficial effects:
[0017] 1. This microreactor for preparing iron phosphate ensures uniform heating by using a first, second, and third heat-conducting fluid. The funnel-shaped structure formed by installing the first, second, and third heat-conducting fluids inside the inner liner creates a gradually narrowing microchannel. The three-stage gradually narrowing microchannel enhances the turbulent mixing effect through a variable diameter structure. Furthermore, the turbulence can suppress the formation of deposits inside the gradually narrowing channel, preventing blockage. The detachable modular design facilitates quick replacement or cleaning in case of local blockage.

[0019] 3. This microreactor for preparing iron phosphate has a double-layer structure formed by the outer shell and the inner liner. With the help of the first fluid guide, the second fluid guide and the third fluid guide, a gradually narrowing microchannel is formed to guide the liquid, providing a constant temperature and constant flow reaction environment for the reactants, ensuring the degree and efficiency of the reaction, and preventing the accumulation of solid particles that could cause channel blockage. In addition, the laminar flow state has a good mixing effect. Attached Figure Description

[0026] A microreactor for the preparation of iron phosphate, such as Figure 1 and Figure 2 As shown, it includes:
[0027] The outer shell 10 has an inner liner 12 fixedly installed inside it. A delivery pipe 11 connecting the inner liner 12 is fixedly installed at each end of the outer shell 10. The outer shell 10 is hollow, forming a cavity. The inner liner 12 is located inside the cavity of the outer shell 10 and is smaller than the cavity size of the outer shell 10. A heat-insulating cavity 13 is formed between the outer walls of the outer shell 10 and the inner liner 12. The outer wall of the inner liner 12 is provided with a plurality of heating rods 14 for heating. The heating rods 14 are fixedly installed on the wall of the inner liner 12 by a bracket. The bracket and the inner liner 12 are integrally formed and have holes for fitting the heating rods 14. The heating rods 14 are inserted into the holes. The end of the outer shell 10 is provided with an end plate fixed by screws. The end plate blocks and seals the ports of the heat-insulating cavity 13 and the inner liner 12.
[0028] In this scheme, a double-layer structure formed by the outer shell 10 and the inner liner 12 is used to reduce heat loss. The inner liner 12 is heated by an electric heating rod 14. The heated inner liner 12 provides a constant temperature reaction environment for the reactants. The electric heating rod 14 can be connected to a controller to realize temperature regulation and control.
[0029] like Figure 2 , Figure 3 , Figure 4 and Figure 5 As shown, the separator is detachably installed in the cavity of the inner liner 12 to guide the reactants. The separator includes a first guide fluid 20, a second guide fluid 21, and a third guide fluid 22 connected end to end. The first guide fluid 20, the second guide fluid 21, and the third guide fluid 22 together form a tapered, gradually shrinking channel. The first guide fluid 20, the second guide fluid 21, and the third guide fluid 22 are all funnel-shaped structures. The first guide fluid 20, the second guide fluid 21, and the third guide fluid 22 together form a funnel-shaped shell.
[0030] In this design, it should be noted that a heating chamber is formed between the inner liner 12 and the first guide fluid 20, the second guide fluid 21, and the third guide fluid 22. Heat transfer oil can be injected into the heating chamber to heat the first guide fluid 20, the second guide fluid 21, and the third guide fluid 22, ensuring uniform heating. By installing the first guide fluid 20, the second guide fluid 21, and the third guide fluid 22 inside the inner liner 12, a funnel-shaped structure forms a tapered microchannel. The three-stage tapered microchannel enhances the turbulent mixing effect through a variable diameter structure. The detachable modular design facilitates quick replacement or cleaning in case of local blockage.
[0031] like Figure 5 As shown, the separating assembly also includes blades 23 and flanges 24. Blades 23 are fixedly installed on the inner walls of the first fluid guide 20, the second fluid guide 21 and the third fluid guide 22. The blades 23 form a spiral plate. Flanges 24 are fixedly installed at the ends of the first fluid guide 20, the second fluid guide 21 and the third fluid guide 22 that are close to each other. The flanges 24 are locked by bolts.
[0032] In this scheme, as a supplement to the above scheme, the first fluid guide 20 and the third fluid guide 22 can be installed by locking the same flange 24 to both ends of the outer shell 10. The design of the built-in blade 23 uses fluid dynamics to achieve forced mixing of phosphate and iron salt solutions, ensuring the uniformity of fluid mixing. Each microchannel is connected by a flange quick-release structure, which can be quickly disassembled and assembled for subsequent maintenance operations.
[0033] In summary, the double-layer structure formed by the outer shell 10 and the inner liner 12, together with the first guide fluid 20, the second guide fluid 21 and the third guide fluid 22, forms a gradually narrowing microchannel to guide the liquid, providing a constant temperature and constant flow reaction environment for the reactants, ensuring the degree and efficiency of the reaction, preventing the accumulation of solid particles that could cause channel blockage, and ensuring good mixing effect in laminar flow.
[0034] The working principle of this utility model is as follows: One of the delivery pipes is connected to the container. The mixed slurry is sent into the inner liner 12 cavity. The slurry flows from the largest third guide fluid 22 to the first guide fluid 20. The variable diameter structure enhances the turbulent mixing effect. With the design of the built-in blades 23, the hydrodynamic force is used to achieve forced mixing of phosphate and iron salt solutions, ensuring the mixing effect of the reactants. A heating chamber is formed between the inner liner 12 and the first guide fluid 20, the second guide fluid 21, and the third guide fluid 22. Heat transfer oil can be injected into the heating chamber. The heat transfer oil heats the first guide fluid 20, the second guide fluid 21, and the third guide fluid 22 to ensure the uniformity of heating. The electric heating rod 14 heats the inner liner 12. The heated inner liner 12 provides a constant temperature reaction environment for the reactants.
[0035] The foregoing has shown and described the basic principles, main features, and advantages of this utility model. Those skilled in the art should understand that this utility model is not limited to the above embodiments. The embodiments and descriptions in the specification are merely illustrative of the principles of this utility model. Various changes and modifications can be made to this utility model without departing from its spirit and scope, and all such changes and modifications fall within the scope of the claims. The scope of protection of this utility model is defined by the appended claims and their equivalents.
