[0002] In existing exhaust gas treatment systems, water-soluble gases need to be washed. During this process, the negative pressure in the plant's pipelines draws humid air into the pipelines, along with dust from the equipment. The moisture and dust combine in the pipelines to produce sludge, causing severe blockages. Furthermore, the sludge is corrosive, damaging the pipelines and significantly shortening their lifespan, increasing maintenance costs and frequency.
[0003] Therefore, there is an urgent need to design a heating device with a simple structure that can efficiently evaporate water vapor from pipelines, so as to prevent condensation and sludge formation from the source. Utility Model Content

For clarity, many practical details will be explained in the following description. However, it should be understood that these practical details in the specification should not be used to limit this patent. That is, in some embodiments of this patent, these practical details are not essential. Furthermore, for ease of understanding, some conventional structures and components will be illustrated in the drawings in a simple schematic manner.

They are only for the convenience of describing this patent and simplifying the description, and do not indicate or imply that the device or element referred to must have a specific orientation, or be constructed and operated in a specific orientation. Therefore, they should not be construed as limitations on this patent.
[0022] Furthermore, the terms "first" and "second" are used for descriptive purposes only and should not be construed as indicating or implying relative importance or implicitly specifying the number of technical features indicated. Thus, a feature defined as "first" or "second" may explicitly or implicitly include one or more of that feature.

[0024] Furthermore, the technical solutions of the various embodiments can be combined with each other, but this must be based on the ability of a person skilled in the art to implement them. When the combination of technical solutions is contradictory or cannot be implemented, it should be considered that such combination of technical solutions does not exist and is not within the scope of protection claimed by this patent.
[0025] Because a large amount of moisture and dust are generated during the exhaust gas treatment process, the moist dust will be drawn into the plant pipeline by the negative pressure of the plant, which will cause blockage of the plant pipeline. This application uses electric heating wire to heat the air. The heater has a structure that gradually increases in size. When the air enters the heater, the residence time in the heater will be extended, and the air will be fully heated before entering the equipment to neutralize the moist air.
[0026] Please see the appendix Figure 1-2 The air heating device disclosed in this utility model includes: a heating chamber 1, wherein the two ends of the heating chamber 1 are funnel-shaped open ends that gradually narrow, and the whole is a spindle-shaped cavity. An air inlet pipe 2 and an air delivery pipe 3 are respectively connected to the narrow ends on both sides. The middle section inside the cavity is a larger diameter receiving chamber. The fixing base 4 is a hollow alumina cylinder, coaxially fixed in the center of the receiving chamber. The outer surface is provided with a spiral groove. The heating wire 5 is spirally and tightly wound in the groove. The heating wire 5 is connected to a power source.
[0027] During operation, the air intake pipe 2 guides air into the heating chamber 1. As the diameter of the chamber gradually increases, the air velocity decreases, allowing the air to fully contact and absorb heat from the spiral heating wire 5 within the chamber. After heating, the air flows out through the air supply pipe 3. The funnel-shaped structure increases the residence time of the air within the chamber, ensuring that it is heated to the target temperature.
[0028] To further optimize the above technical solution, the air supply pipe 3 is connected to a one-way air inlet valve.
[0029] The one-way inlet valve controls the unidirectional flow of high-temperature gas, ensuring that the gas can only be delivered towards the equipment's exhaust port. High-temperature air enters the exhaust gas pipe by pushing the one-way inlet valve open through the gas supply pipe 3; when the heating device stops working, the valve automatically closes to prevent moisture in the pipe from flowing back into the heating chamber 1 and to avoid damage to the heating wire due to moisture.
[0030] To further optimize the above technical solution, the fixing base 4 is a hollow cylindrical shape and is made of aluminum oxide.
[0031] The fixing base 4 is preferably made of alumina ceramic. Alumina ceramic is resistant to high temperature, has good insulation, and can withstand long-term heating at 250°C. Its hollow structure reduces weight and heat conduction loss, ensuring that the heat from the heating wire 5 is concentrated in the air for heating.
[0032] To further optimize the above technical solution, the fixing base 4 is provided with a spiral groove along its outer surface, and the heating wire 5 is fixed in the groove.
[0033] The spiral groove defines the position of the heating wire 5, preventing it from loosening due to vibration and ensuring its stable operation; the heating wire 5 is spirally distributed, extending the heating length within a limited space, increasing the heat exchange area per unit volume by 40%, and improving heating uniformity.
[0034] To further optimize the above technical solution, the heating wire 5 is electrically heated to a temperature of 100-250°C; the heating wire 5 has a spiral structure, which extends the total length of the heating wire within a limited space and improves the heat exchange efficiency.
[0035] The heating wire 5 can also be connected to a thermostat. The temperature of the heating wire 5 can be controlled by adjusting the voltage through the thermostat, so that the temperature of the heating wire 5 is between 100-250℃. The spiral structure makes the heating wire 5 form a continuous heating surface outside the fixed base 4, so that the air can make full contact with the heating wire 5 when it flows through. The thermostat automatically adjusts the temperature according to the data of the pipeline humidity sensor. For example, when the humidity is high, it will rise to 200℃ to ensure that the water vapor evaporates completely.
[0036] To further optimize the above technical solution, the heating chamber 1 is shaped into a spindle shape, with varying widths from the air inlet pipe 2 to the air delivery pipe 3. This is to allow air to enter quickly, increase the residence time, and allow the air to be fully heated in the heating chamber 1.
[0037] When air enters the intake pipe 2, its flow rate is high, quickly filling the heating chamber 1. After entering the heating chamber 1, the equipment diameter expands, the flow rate decreases, and the residence time increases. As it flows towards the delivery pipe 3, its diameter decreases, and the high-temperature air is quickly discharged through the one-way intake valve. This design allows air to enter the heating chamber 1 quickly and increases its residence time within it, ensuring that the air is fully heated. After passing through the one-way intake valve and being delivered to the equipment's exhaust port, the high-temperature air evaporates water vapor in the pipes, preventing condensation and sludge formation.
[0038] The air heating device evaporates water vapor from high-temperature gas, preventing moisture from combining with dust and eliminating sludge formation; eliminating condensation can delay pipe corrosion and extend service life; the variable diameter cavity design improves heating efficiency, and the temperature can be adjusted to adapt to different working conditions.
[0039] This application utilizes high-temperature air to evaporate water vapor inside plant pipelines, effectively preventing condensation and fundamentally eliminating sludge formation. After using this device, pipeline blockages are significantly reduced, pipeline lifespan is extended, maintenance cycles are greatly increased, and maintenance costs are lowered.
