Description
An externally mounted semi-coil type high-efficiency reduction reactor Technical Field
[0001] This utility model relates to the field of reduction tanks, and in particular to the field of external coil reduction tank technology, specifically an externally mounted semi-coil type high-efficiency reduction reaction tank. Background Technology
[0002] In high-temperature reduction reaction equipment, the heat transfer structure of the reduction vessel directly affects the reaction efficiency and safety. Traditional technologies often employ jacketed or internal coil heating methods. While internal coils can increase the heat transfer area, they still have significant drawbacks:
[0003] 1. Space occupation and reaction interference: The inner coil needs to be embedded inside the tank, occupying the effective reaction space, which leads to obstruction of material flow, easy formation of local accumulation, and easy scaling or corrosion on the surface of the coil, affecting heat transfer efficiency and reaction uniformity.
[0004] 2. Complex structure and difficult maintenance: The internal coil is welded to the inner wall of the tank, which is a complex process and is prone to stress concentration. Under long-term high temperature and high pressure, it is easy to cause weld cracking or leakage risk. At the same time, the built-in structure makes maintenance difficult, requiring frequent shutdowns for disassembly, which increases operation and maintenance costs.
[0005] Based on the above problems, there is an urgent need for a new type of reduction tank structure that can improve heat transfer efficiency, optimize the space utilization of the reaction chamber and the reliability of the equipment, and solve the inherent maintenance problems and safety hazards of internal coil technology.

[0038] This invention proposes an externally mounted semi-coil type high-efficiency reduction reaction vessel for use in reduction tank processes. This invention does not limit the type of liquid, but the structure of this externally mounted semi-coil type high-efficiency reduction reaction vessel is particularly suitable for processes where the feed includes hydrogen.
[0039] Overall, the externally mounted semi-coil type high-efficiency reduction reactor proposed in this utility model mainly includes a cylinder 5, a feed inlet h and a bottom drain m, a spray pipe assembly 12, a magnetic stirring drive 13, a hydrogen inlet pipe d, and a semi-coil assembly. Figure 1 illustrates the arrangement of the cylinder 5, feed inlet h and bottom drain m, spray pipe assembly 12, magnetic stirring drive 13, hydrogen inlet pipe d, and semi-coil assembly.
[0040] To achieve the goal of adapting to hydrogen gas within the reduction reactor, and addressing the issue in the background technology that the heat transfer structure of the reduction reactor directly affects reaction efficiency and safety in high-temperature reduction reaction equipment, traditional technologies often employ jacketed or built-in coil heating methods. While the internal coil can increase the heat transfer area, it still has significant drawbacks: 1. Space occupation and reaction interference: The internal coil needs to be embedded inside the tank, occupying effective reaction space, leading to obstructed material flow, easy formation of local accumulation, and easy scaling or corrosion on the coil surface, affecting heat transfer efficiency and reaction uniformity; 2. Complex structure and difficult maintenance: The internal coil is welded to the inner wall of the tank, which is complex in process and prone to stress concentration, especially under long-term high temperature and high pressure. The internal structure of the turbine can easily lead to weld cracking or leakage. Furthermore, the built-in structure makes maintenance difficult, requiring frequent shutdowns and disassembly, increasing maintenance costs. Therefore, the technical solution provided in this embodiment achieves local temperature gradient control through a partitioned semi-coil design. In addition, a multi-layer stirring structure is formed by combining a closed turbine with a detachable inclined blade open turbine. The closed turbine enhances shear force, while the inclined blade turbine promotes axial circulation, making it suitable for materials with high solids content or high viscosity, thus improving mixing efficiency. Furthermore, the 45° oblique cut design of the hydrogen inlet pipe, combined with its close-fitting inner wall layout, allows hydrogen to be evenly dispersed in the form of small bubbles, increasing the gas-liquid contact area by more than two times and improving the hydrogenation reaction rate by 25%.
[0041] As shown in Figure 1, the cylinder 5 is a vertical cylindrical structure with an upper elliptical head 11 welded to the top and a lower elliptical head 2 welded to the bottom. The upper elliptical head 11 has a feed inlet h at its center, and the lower flange 1 at the bottom of the lower elliptical head 2 is coaxially provided with a bottom drain port m to ensure smooth discharge without residue. In addition, the bottom drain port m coincides with the axis of the lower elliptical head 2 to avoid dead corners for liquid accumulation.
[0042] Next, the spray pipe assembly 12 is installed on the top of the cylinder 5, and the liquid is sprayed evenly through the multi-hole distributor for liquid spraying or cleaning during the reaction process; the magnetic stirring drive 13 is fixed at the upper flange 14 at the top of the cylinder 5, and the stirring rod 16 extends axially to the bottom of the cylinder, with a closed turbine 17 and a detachable inclined blade open turbine 18 installed at the end. Two sets of closed turbines 17 are provided and distributed at intervals on the stirring rod 16 to enhance the shear force; the detachable inclined blade turbine 18 is located at the bottom to achieve efficient stirring of materials and facilitate disassembly and cleaning.
[0043] Based on this, the hydrogen inlet pipe d is inserted from the top of the upper elliptical head 11, and is bent and tightly attached to the inner wall of the cylinder 5 and the lower elliptical head 2. The bottom opening is cut at a 45° angle to optimize hydrogen diffusion. Preferably, the 45° cut design of the hydrogen inlet pipe d allows hydrogen to enter the reaction zone in a tangential flow. Combined with the curved path that is tightly attached to the inner wall of the tank, the gas is evenly diffused along the wall, avoiding excessively high local concentrations.
[0044] It should be specifically noted that the semi-coil assembly includes a cylindrical semi-coil 4 and a head semi-coil 3, both of which adopt a spiral wound external design. The cylindrical semi-coil 4 is divided into four groups, with two groups located at 1 / 3 of the height of the cylindrical body 5 and the other two groups located at 2 / 3. Each group has an independent cylindrical semi-coil inlet n1, n2, n3, n4 and a cylindrical semi-coil outlet p1, p2, p3, p4. Correspondingly, the head semi-coil 3 is divided into two groups, with its head semi-coil inlet n5, n6 located at the top center and its head tube outlet p5, p6 vertically downward for introducing heat transfer oil or steam for temperature control.
[0045] Furthermore, the inlets n1, n2, n3, n4 and outlets p1, p2, p3, p4 of the four sets of cylindrical half-coils 4 are connected in parallel to support segmented temperature control: the upper half-coil is circulated with a low-temperature medium to prevent the top material from overheating, and the lower half-coil is circulated with a high-temperature medium to accelerate the bottom reaction; in addition, the outlets p5 and p6 of the end cap half-coil 3 are arranged vertically downward to prevent condensate accumulation and ensure heat exchange stability.
[0046] As mentioned above, a ladder 8, lug 10, grounding plate 9, and side wall lifting lug 15 are added to the outside of the cylinder 5 to improve the safety of equipment operation and the convenience of hoisting. In addition, baffles 6 and baffle tie rods 7 are welded to the inner wall of the cylinder 5 to suppress material swirling and enhance mixing efficiency. Multiple sets of closed turbines 17 are installed in sections on the stirring rod 16, which, together with the detachable inclined blade open turbine 18 at the bottom, form a stepped mixing flow field, which is suitable for the uniform reduction of high viscosity materials.
[0047] The above embodiments are merely illustrative of the principles and effects of this utility model and are not intended to limit the scope of this utility model. Any person skilled in the art can modify or alter the above embodiments without departing from the spirit and scope of this utility model. Therefore, all equivalent modifications or alterations made by those skilled in the art without departing from the spirit and technical concept disclosed in this utility model should still be covered by the claims of this utility model.
