The drying tower is required when preparing solid caustic soda from liquid.

[0003] However, existing exhaust gas processors are not very effective at treating exhaust gases, and the filters they use are not easy to clean. Summary of the Invention

[0020] The embodiments of this utility model will be described in further detail below with reference to the accompanying drawings and examples. The following examples are for illustrative purposes only and should not be construed as limiting the scope of this utility model.

[0021] like Figure 1 and Figure 2As shown, an improved liquid-to-solid caustic soda drying tower includes a cyclone separator 1 and a recovery assembly 4. The upper end of the cyclone separator 1 is connected to an air supply pipe 2, and the upper end of the air supply pipe 2 is connected to a waste gas treatment box 3. An exhaust pipe 5 is installed on the top of the waste gas treatment box 3. A filter assembly 6 for waste gas filtration is provided inside the recovery tray 401. The filter assembly 6 includes a filter membrane 601 and activated carbon 602, with the activated carbon 602 positioned below the filter membrane 601. The filter membranes 601 and activated carbon 602 are arranged in pairs, interspersed in the recovery tray 4. The inner side of 01 serves to filter exhaust gas and also increases the contact time between exhaust gas and recovery disc 401, improving heat recovery efficiency. Recovery disc 401 and filter membrane 601 are distributed alternately, and recovery disc 401 and filter activated carbon 602 are also distributed alternately. A feeding pipe 7 is connected to the side of cyclone separator 1, and a drying box 8 is connected to the upper end of the feeding pipe 7. A hot air inlet pipe 9 is installed on the rear side of the drying box 8, and a sprayer 10 is installed on the top of the drying box 8. A wet liquid feeding pipe 11 is connected to the top of the sprayer 10, and a wet material box 12 is connected to the end of the wet liquid feeding pipe 11.

[0022] like Figure 3 As shown, the heat recovery assembly 4 is installed inside the waste gas treatment box 3. The recovery assembly 4 includes a recovery plate 401, a liquid outlet pipe 402, a connecting pipe 403, a liquid inlet pipe 404, and a central pipe 405. The liquid outlet pipe 402 is installed on the right side of the upper end of the recovery plate 401. The evenly distributed circular holes on the surface of the recovery plate 401 are used for the flow of waste gas. There are four recovery plates 401, and the recovery plates 401 and the connecting pipe 403 are distributed alternately on the left and right sides. The water flowing inside the recovery plate 401 dries the waste gas. The residual heat in the airflow is recovered and utilized, allowing the recovered heat to be used in other steps of solid caustic soda drying, saving energy. The inner side of the recovery tray 401 is connected to the connecting pipe 403, and the lower right side of the recovery tray 401 is equipped with an inlet pipe 404. The inlet pipe 404, together with the connecting pipe 403, delivers water liquid sequentially into the recovery tray 401. After the outlet pipe 402 is closed, a central pipe 405 is installed at the center end of the recovery tray 401. The central pipe 405 opens the pipeline, allowing the water liquid to circulate in the four recovery trays 401.

[0023] In summary, this improved liquid-to-solid caustic soda drying tower is first based on... Figures 1-3The structure shown illustrates that the wet material delivery pipe 11 transports the liquid alkali solution containing stabilizer to the drying chamber 8. Under the action of the sprayer 10, the alkali solution is sprayed into the drying chamber 8. High-temperature hot air (300-400℃) comes into counter-current contact with the droplets, causing the water to evaporate and form powdered alkali. The product is then collected by the cyclone separator 1. During processing, the liquid inlet pipe 404, in conjunction with the connecting pipe 403, sequentially sends the liquid water to the inside of the recovery tray 401. The flowing liquid water inside the recovery tray 401 absorbs the residual heat in the exhaust gas flow during drying. The heat recovered can be used in other steps of solid caustic soda drying, saving energy. After the liquid outlet pipe 402 is closed, the central pipe 405 opens the pipeline so that the water liquid circulates in the four recovery discs 401. At the same time, the evenly distributed round holes on the surface of the recovery discs 401 are used for the flow of exhaust gas. The filter membranes 601 and the activated carbon 602, which are arranged in pairs, are inserted into the inside of the recovery discs 401 to filter the exhaust gas. They can also increase the contact time between the exhaust gas and the recovery discs 401 and improve the heat recovery effect.

[0024] The embodiments of this utility model are given for illustrative and descriptive purposes only, and are not intended to be exhaustive or to limit the utility model to the forms disclosed. Many modifications and variations will be apparent to those skilled in the art.
