Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This utility model relates to the field of SCR catalyst production equipment, and in particular to a mesh belt kiln cooling structure for SCR catalysts. Background Technology
[0002] In the continuous development and widespread application of SCR denitrification technology, catalysts, as the core element for achieving efficient denitrification, have a crucial impact on the quality of the final product at every stage of their production process. The mesh belt kiln, as the core equipment for SCR catalyst calcination and forming, not only undertakes the important task of inducing physicochemical changes in the catalyst body through high-temperature calcination, but its cooling process is also a critical step that determines catalyst performance. The rationality of the cooling structure directly affects whether the catalyst can maintain a stable physical structure, chemical activity, and overall performance during the cooling process. Therefore, developing efficient and stable mesh belt kiln cooling structures has become an important issue for improving the production quality of SCR catalysts.
[0003] Existing SCR catalyst mesh belt kilns primarily employ a mechanical structure combining natural air cooling and forced air supply. The technical principle involves installing multiple axial flow fans in the kiln cooling section. These fans draw in outside cold air, which is then blown vertically onto the catalyst substrate on the mesh belt through vents in the kiln sidewall. The airflow carries away the catalyst's heat, achieving cooling. Simultaneously, the mesh belt continuously transports the catalyst at a constant speed, allowing the substrate to experience a temperature gradient as it passes through different cooling zones. Some systems also include an exhaust system at the end of the cooling section to accelerate the removal of hot air and enhance the cooling effect.
[0004] However, in existing technologies, the cooling process involves directly blowing cold air onto the high-temperature catalyst blank, which can easily lead to uneven distribution of cold air within the kiln and a lack of precise control over the cooling rate. The high-temperature honeycomb SCR catalyst blank often experiences excessively rapid cooling due to sudden exposure to the low-temperature airflow. At the same time, the difference in the degree of cooling in different parts causes uneven cooling, which can easily lead to thermal stress concentration inside the blank, resulting in product cracking and seriously affecting the finished product quality and production stability of the catalyst. To address these issues, a mesh belt kiln cooling structure for SCR catalysts is proposed. Utility Model Content

[0041] The technical solutions of the present utility model will be clearly and completely described below with reference to the accompanying drawings of the embodiments. Obviously, the described embodiments are only some embodiments of the present utility model, and not all embodiments. Based on the embodiments of the present utility model, all other embodiments obtained by those of ordinary skill in the art without creative effort are within the protection scope of the present utility model.
[0042] Reference Figures 1-4 The present invention provides an embodiment of a mesh belt kiln cooling structure for SCR catalyst, comprising a conveyor belt 1, with a mesh belt kiln 2 fixedly connected to one side of the conveyor belt 1. The conveyor belt 1 is used to carry and uniformly transport the SCR catalyst to be cooled, and works in conjunction with the mesh belt kiln 2 located above it to perform continuous cooling operations, achieving the effect of efficient and automated production. The inner wall of the mesh belt kiln 2 is provided with a cooling component, which is used to perform core cooling treatment on the catalyst inside the kiln.
[0043] The cooling assembly includes multiple cooling pipes 7 located on the inner wall of the mesh belt kiln 2. These cooling pipes 7 serve as channels for cold air flow and key carriers for heat exchange. A rigid aluminosilicate fiberboard 16 is installed on the top of the inner wall of the mesh belt kiln 2. This board effectively blocks the high temperature inside the kiln from dissipating to the top, achieving the effects of heat insulation and improving the thermal efficiency of the kiln. Both ends of the multiple cooling pipes 7 penetrate the rigid aluminosilicate fiberboard 16 and extend to the top of the mesh belt kiln 2.
[0044] The top of the mesh belt kiln 2 is equipped with a connecting pipe 3, an air inlet pipe 6, and an air outlet pipe 10. These pipes, together with connecting block 4, connecting block 5, and connecting pipe 8, are used to construct a complete and efficient airflow distribution and recovery path. Connecting block 4 and connecting block 5 are fixedly connected to the top two sides of the connecting pipe 3, and the two sides of the connecting pipe 3 are connected to the air inlet pipe 6 and the air outlet pipe 10 through the connecting pipe 8. Multiple support blocks 9 are fixedly connected to the bottom of the connecting pipe 3, the air inlet pipe 6, and the air outlet pipe 10. The bottom of the multiple support blocks 9 is fixedly connected to the top of the mesh belt kiln 2. The support blocks 9 are used to firmly support and fix the entire top pipe components, ensuring the structural stability of the equipment during operation.
[0045] A suction fan 15 is fixedly connected to the top of the mesh belt kiln 2. The output end of the suction fan 15 is connected to one end of the connecting pipe 3. The suction fan 15 is used to provide a continuous and strong source of cold air for the entire cooling component. The rigid aluminum silicate fiberboard 16 is fixedly connected to the top of the inner wall of the mesh belt kiln 2 through anchors. The anchors are used to ensure that the fiberboard remains stable for a long time under high temperature and airflow scouring, which enhances the safety and durability of the equipment. Each cooling pipe 7 is equipped with a guide component. The guide component is used to finely control the flow of cold air entering the pipe, which solves the problem of low heat exchange efficiency caused by uneven airflow distribution.
[0046] Reference Figure 5 and Figure 6 The guiding component includes multiple guide plates 11, 12, 13 and micro-ribs 14. The outer walls of the multiple guide plates 11, 12 and 13 and micro-ribs 14 are fixedly connected to the inner wall of the cooling pipe 7. The multiple guide plates 11 are inclined towards the bottom of the inner wall of the cooling pipe 7 and the angle between them and the bottom axis of the cooling pipe 7 is 8°. This is used to actively guide the airflow above the pipe and press it towards the bottom of the pipe wall for supplementation, thereby enhancing the airflow velocity and flow rate in the bottom heat exchange area. The multiple guide plates 22 are inclined towards the top of the inner wall of the cooling pipe 7 and the angle between them and the bottom axis of the cooling pipe 7 is 5°. This is used to cleverly suppress the turbulence caused by excessive downward pressure of the airflow, thereby achieving the control effect of balancing the flow velocity difference between the center of the pipe and the wall and stabilizing the overall flow state.
[0047] Multiple guide vanes 13 are parallel to each other with the bottom axis of the cooling pipe 7. They are used to finally regulate and sort the airflow after the first two stages of regulation, ensuring that the airflow can flow out smoothly and evenly in the horizontal direction and avoid outlet deflection. Multiple micro-protruding ribs 14 are vertically distributed with the bottom axis of the cooling pipe 7. They are used to efficiently break and peel off the airflow stagnation boundary layer that is tightly attached to the bottom of the pipe wall through physical disturbance. This solves the technical problem that the presence of this boundary layer seriously hinders heat transfer and enhances the contact heat exchange efficiency between the pipe wall and the cold air.
[0048] Working principle: During the cooling process of the SCR catalyst, the negative pressure generated by the operation of the suction fan 15 draws in external cold air through the connecting block 4 and connecting block 5 at the top of the connecting pipe 3. The cold air then enters the interior of the connecting pipe 3 and flows to the air inlet pipe 6 through the connecting pipe 8 on one side. Afterwards, the cold air is distributed into the interior of multiple parallel cooling pipes 7, which run through the top space of the mesh belt kiln 2. When cold air flows inside the stainless steel cooling pipe 7, it absorbs the high-temperature heat from the kiln through the pipe wall, thus indirectly cooling the SCR catalyst on the conveyor belt 1 below. During this process, the rigid aluminum silicate fiberboard 16 installed on the top of the inner wall of the mesh belt kiln 2 plays a crucial role in heat insulation. It is firmly connected to the kiln body through anchors, effectively preventing heat loss to the top of the kiln. This solves the problems of energy waste caused by upward heat radiation in traditional kilns and catalyst cracking due to excessively rapid or uneven cooling. By concentrating heat in the cooling area, the thermal efficiency of the equipment is enhanced, achieving stable, uniform, and efficient catalyst cooling, and ensuring the long-term stability and reliability of the structure. When cold air enters the cooling pipe 7, it first encounters a downward slope of eight degrees. The first guide plate 11 actively guides the airflow above and presses it towards the bottom of the inner wall of the cooling pipe 7, thereby enhancing the flow rate and velocity of the airflow at the bottom and solving the problem of insufficient heat exchange at the bottom caused by airflow stratification. Next, the airflow passes through the second guide plate 12, which is tilted five degrees in the opposite direction, suppressing the turbulence caused by excessive downward pressure and balancing the velocity difference between the airflow in the center of the pipe and the airflow attached to the wall. Then, the third guide plate 13, which is parallel to the bottom axis of the cooling pipe 7, regulates the airflow, ensuring that the airflow after the first two stages of regulation can finally flow out in a stable horizontal direction and avoid the flow deviation phenomenon at the outlet. Finally, multiple micro-protrusions 14 distributed perpendicular to the airflow direction physically disturb and destroy the airflow stagnation boundary layer that is close to the bottom of the inner wall of the pipe. This boundary layer is the main obstacle to heat exchange. The micro-convex ribs 14 draw in the low-speed stagnant airflow and mix it with the mainstream airflow in the middle, improving the uniformity of the flow velocity in the entire bottom region. This solves the problem of low heat exchange efficiency caused by uneven airflow and boundary layer effects within the pipe, enabling precise control of the airflow within the pipe and enhancing the heat exchange effect between the cold air and the pipe wall, thereby ensuring deep and uniform cooling of the SCR catalyst. After heat exchange is completed, the air that has absorbed heat flows out from the cooling pipe 7, merges into the outlet pipe 10, and is eventually discharged.
