Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This utility model relates to the field of flue gas desulfurization technology, specifically a circulating fluidized bed semi-dry desulfurization tower outlet rectifier device. Background Technology
[0002] Circulating fluidized bed (CFB) semi-dry desulfurization is an environmentally friendly new technology widely used in flue gas desulfurization in thermal power plants. This technology utilizes dry slaked lime powder (Ca(OH)2) as the absorbent, increasing the contact time between the absorbent and the flue gas through multiple recirculations, thereby improving the absorbent utilization rate and ultimately achieving efficient desulfurization. The core of CFB semi-dry desulfurization technology lies in the circulating fluidized bed reactor. Flue gas enters the reactor from the bottom of the circulating fluidized bed, while dry Ca(OH)2 is fed into the reaction tower via the desulfurizing agent supply system. The fluidized material and acidic gases such as sulfur dioxide in the flue gas undergo a chemical reaction in the reaction tower, removing most of the sulfur dioxide and other pollutants from the flue gas. The reaction products are treated in a dry state, avoiding the generation of wastewater and waste liquid.
[0003] In existing technologies, the outlet section of the desulfurization tower adopts a right-angle bend structure, which leads to eccentric flue gas flow and uneven flow velocity, causing the following problems:
[0004] Turbulent flue gas flow field leads to shortened reaction time and decreased desulfurization efficiency;
[0005] Increased scaling on the tower walls leads to higher system operating resistance;
[0006] Uneven material fluidization poses a risk of bed collapse.
[0007] Therefore, this technology designs an outlet rectifier for a circulating fluidized bed semi-dry desulfurization tower. Utility Model Content
[0008] The purpose of this invention is to provide a circulating fluidized bed semi-dry desulfurization tower outlet rectifier to solve the problems mentioned in the background art.
[0009] To achieve the above objectives, this utility model provides the following technical solution:
[0010] A circulating fluidized bed semi-dry desulfurization tower outlet rectification device includes a volute, rectification baffles, and an outlet flue. The volute is fixedly installed at the desulfurization tower outlet, and its inner wall adopts a progressive spiral curve design. Multiple rectification baffles are provided and distributed along the axial direction of the volute and extend to the outlet flue. The outlet flue is connected to the end of the volute, and its cross-section is set as a gradually expanding structure. The gradually expanding cross-section reduces the flue gas velocity from the volute, prolongs the contact time between the flue gas and the desulfurizing agent, and reduces pressure loss. That is, by increasing the cross-sectional area, local eddies are reduced, and the system resistance is reduced by 10%-15%. Multiple sets of reserved test holes are opened on the side wall of the volute for inserting testing equipment.
[0011] Compared with the prior art, the beneficial effects of this utility model are: the flue gas is guided to diffuse evenly by the spiral curve of the volute, the flue gas flow field is divided by the rectifier baffle to eliminate eccentricity, and the flow velocity is reduced by the gradually expanding outlet flue to extend the reaction time, thereby ensuring improved desulfurization efficiency and reduced system resistance.

The maintenance manhole 6 is equipped with a quick-opening flange and has a safety guardrail inside.

[0036] Surface treatment: Plasma spraying of Al2O3 coating (thickness 50-100μm) to improve wear resistance.
