Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This utility model relates to the field of chemical equipment technology, and in particular to a pentaerythritol and dipentaerythritol precipitation separation device. Background Technology
[0002] In fields such as fine chemicals, pharmaceutical manufacturing, and environmental engineering, it is often necessary to separate solid particles from liquids. These particles may be formed due to crystallization reactions, precipitation reactions, or other physicochemical processes, such as separating precipitated particles of a mixture of pentaerythritol and dipentaerythritol from a crystallization solution.
[0003] Existing methods for separating precipitation in mixed liquors mainly involve filtering the liquor. This requires passing the entire liquor through a filtration system and continuously collecting the precipitate. The collected precipitate is then separated into pentaerythritol and dipentaerythritol precipitates using sieves of different diameters. As can be seen, the existing methods for separating pentaerythritol and dipentaerythritol precipitates are complex, resulting in high labor and material costs, which in turn increases industrial production costs.

[0029] See Figure 1 and Figure 2 This invention provides a precipitation and separation device for pentaerythritol and dipentaerythritol, comprising: a precipitation tank 1, a frame 2, a scraper conveyor 3, and a separator 4. The positions and functions of each component are as follows:
[0030] The scraper conveyor 3 and separator 4 are mounted on the frame 2. The frame 2 is typically made of high-strength steel to withstand the load during scraper conveyor operation. The frame 2 is generally divided into an upper frame and a lower frame to support the scraper chain and other mechanical components. The scraper conveyor mainly consists of a scraper chain, scrapers, a drive unit, guide rails, and a tensioning device. Power transmission and material conveying are primarily accomplished through the scraper chain. The chain consists of multiple links, with scrapers fixed on each link. The scrapers, through the traction motion of the chain, transport the material forward. The scrapers are the core component of the scraper conveyor, fixed to the chain. The scrapers have a certain inclination angle, and through contact with the conveyed material, they push the material along the scraper conveyor's track. The drive unit of the scraper conveyor typically consists of a motor, a reducer, and sprockets. The motor drives the chain to rotate through the reducer, thus enabling the scraper conveyor to operate. Guide rails are used to support and guide the movement of the scraper chain and are usually installed on both sides of the scraper conveyor to ensure smooth operation of the scraper chain. To ensure chain tension, scraper conveyors are usually equipped with tensioning devices, which can maintain stable chain operation by adjusting the chain tension.
[0031] The scraper conveyor 3 is inclined, and the inclination angle of the scraper conveyor 3 is 45°-60°. For example, in this embodiment, the inclination angle of the scraper conveyor 3 is set to 50°.
[0032] The bottom of the scraper conveyor 3 is located at the bottom of the sedimentation tank 1, and the head of the scraper conveyor 3 is the discharge end. The separator 4 is located inside the sedimentation tank 1, and the mixture of pentaerythritol and dipentaerythritol precipitates enters the sedimentation tank 1 through the separator 4. An overflow trough is provided at the top of the sedimentation tank 1.
[0033] In a preferred embodiment provided by this utility model, see [link to previous embodiment]. Figure 1 The separator 4 includes a tank and an agitator. The tank has an inlet at the top and an outlet at the bottom. The agitator is mounted on the tank, and its blades are located inside the tank. The agitator is electrically powered. Multiple sets of blades are distributed along the length of the agitator shaft, each set containing at least one blade. The multiple sets of blades improve the uniformity of mixing the pentaerythritol and dipentaerythritol precipitate mixture in the separator 4.
[0034] See Figure 1 and Figure 2 The working process of the pentaerythritol and dipentaerythritol precipitation separation device provided in this embodiment of the invention is as follows: the pentaerythritol and dipentaerythritol precipitation mixture is transported to the inlet of the tank, the agitator is turned on, and the mixture is stirred by gears. The stirred mixture is then transported to the sedimentation tank 1 through the outlet of the tank. After stirring, the mixture in the sedimentation tank 1 is in a suspended state. The upper layer of dipentaerythritol particles is discharged through the overflow trough, and the lower layer of pentaerythritol particles is discharged through the scraper conveyor 3.
[0035] See Figure 1 and Figure 2 The technical solution provided by this utility model embodiment has the following beneficial effects or advantages:
[0036] The pentaerythritol and dipentaerythritol precipitation separation device provided in this embodiment of the invention comprises a scraper conveyor 3 and a separator 4 mounted on a frame 2. The scraper conveyor 3 is inclined, with its bottom positioned at the bottom of the sedimentation tank 1 and its head serving as the discharge end. The separator 4 is located within the sedimentation tank 1, through which the pentaerythritol and dipentaerythritol precipitation mixture enters the sedimentation tank 1. An overflow trough is provided at the top of the sedimentation tank 1. This device uses the separator 4 within the sedimentation tank 1 to stir the pentaerythritol and dipentaerythritol precipitation mixture into a suspended state. The upper layer of dipentaerythritol particles overflows through the overflow trough to a collection tank for the next process. The larger single pentaerythritol precipitates and a small amount of attached dipentaerythritol and impurities are output through the scraper conveyor 3, thus achieving the separation of pentaerythritol and dipentaerythritol.
[0037] The above description is only a preferred embodiment of the present utility model and is not intended to limit the present utility model. Any modifications, equivalent substitutions, improvements, etc., made within the spirit and principles of the present utility model should be included within the protection scope of the present utility model.
