A mixing tank 6 for storing activated carbon is mounted inside the purification tank 4. Several sets of flow holes 7 are opened on the outer surface of the mixing tank 6. A dustproof lining 9 is fitted to the inner wall of the mixing tank 6. A toothed ring 16 is installed on the outer surface of the top of the purification tank 4. Two sets of toothed racks 17, which can slide along the outer surface of the base frame 1, are symmetrically arranged on the outer side of the toothed ring 16. A vertical plate 19 is installed at the center of the bottom of one set of toothed racks 17. A vertical groove 20 is opened inside the vertical plate 19. A limiting slider 21 is slidably mounted inside the vertical groove 20. A connecting rod 22 is movably mounted on one side of the limiting slider 21. A base bracket 2 for supporting the purification tank 4 is symmetrically arranged on the top wall of the base frame 1. The bottom wall of the base bracket 2 is provided with a limiting seat 3 for limiting the rotation of the purification tank 4. Specifically, the interior of the purification tank 4 is provided with several sets of fixing frames 8 for fixing and supporting the mixing tank 6. The top of the sealing cover 5 is symmetrically provided with a first material pipe 10 and a second material pipe 11, with the first material pipe 10 connected to the mixing tank 6 and the second material pipe 11 connected to the purification tank 4. A stirring motor 12 is provided in the center of the top of the sealing cover 5, and the stirring motor 12 is located between the first material pipe 10 and the second material pipe 11. The output end of the stirring motor 12 is provided with a stirring shaft 13, which passes through the top of the mixing tank 6. The bottom of the purification tank 4 is symmetrically provided with three sets of columns 14, and the bottom end of the columns 14 is provided with casters 15 that move along the outer contour of the limiting seat 3. The top of the base frame 1... Symmetrical limiting grooves 18 are provided on both inner walls to limit and guide the movement of the rack 17. A discharge pipe 24 communicating with the mixing tank 6 is provided at the center of the bottom of the purification tank 4. A sealing plug 25 is movably provided at the bottom end of the discharge pipe 24. A liquid guide pipe 26 is provided at the bottom of the purification tank 4. A water bath jacket 27 is provided inside the purification tank 4 and is distributed on the outside of the mixing tank 6. A liquid inlet pipe 28 is provided at the bottom of the outer surface of the purification tank 4, and a liquid outlet pipe 29 is provided at the top of the outer surface of the purification tank 4. A servo motor 23 for driving the limiting slider 21 to rotate is provided at the bottom end of the connecting rod 22. The connecting rod 22 is fixedly provided on one side of the base frame 1. The base frame 1 serves as the supporting structure of the entire device, ensuring the overall stability of the device during operation. During operation, activated carbon and other adsorbents are added to the mixing tank 6 through feed pipe 10, and waste propylene glycol methyl ether acetate to be purified is added to the purification tank 4 through feed pipe 11. Heating or cooling media is injected into the water bath jacket 27 through the liquid inlet pipe 28 to regulate the temperature of the material in the purification tank 4, stabilizing the internal temperature at 50-60 degrees Celsius. Then, the stirring motor 12 is started, driving the stirring shaft 13 to rotate and stir the material in the mixing tank 6, promoting full contact between the activated carbon and the waste propylene glycol methyl ether acetate, thus improving the purification effect. The stirring time is 1-2 hours. Because the outer surface of the mixing tank 6 has several sets of flow holes 7, the waste propylene glycol methyl ether acetate can enter the mixing tank 6 through the flow holes 7 and contact the activated carbon.Simultaneously, the purified liquid can also flow out from the mixing tank 6. The inner wall of the mixing tank 6 is lined with a dustproof lining 9 to prevent activated carbon particles from leaking out from the flow hole 7, ensuring the smooth progress of the purification process. After the adsorption and extraction are completed, the drain pipe 29 is used to discharge the medium in the water bath jacket 27, the discharge pipe 24 is used to control the discharge of activated carbon in the mixing tank 6, and the liquid guide pipe 26 is used to discharge the purified propylene glycol methyl ether acetate.

The limiting slider 21 at the end of rod 22 can slide along the vertical groove 20. During the sliding process, the limiting slider 21 can pull the rack 17 to reciprocate left and right, thereby driving the purification tank 4 and the mixing tank 6 to rotate as a whole. The centrifugal force generated by the reciprocating rotation can further facilitate the removal of propylene glycol methyl ether acetate adsorbed by activated carbon, further improving the purification and recovery rate of the device. The universal wheel 15 moves along the outer contour of the limiting seat 3, assisting the purification tank 4 in rotating and limiting the rotation of the purification tank 4, ensuring the stability of the purification tank 4 during rotation.

[0030] In this embodiment, specifically, the purification tank 4 is equipped with a temperature control sensor inside, which can monitor the temperature inside the purification tank 4 in real time so as to accurately control the temperature during the purification process. The bottom of the mixing tank 6 is funnel-shaped to facilitate the discharge of the activated carbon stored in the mixing tank 6.

[0031] The content not described in detail in this document is prior art known to those skilled in the art.

[0032] The working principle of this invention is as follows: During use, activated carbon and other adsorbents are added to the mixing tank 6 through feed pipe 10, and waste propylene glycol methyl ether acetate to be purified is added to the purification tank 4 through feed pipe 11. Heating medium is injected into the water bath jacket 27 through the inlet pipe 28 to stabilize the internal temperature at 50-60 degrees Celsius. Then, the stirring motor 12 is started, driving the stirring shaft 13 to rotate and stir the material in the mixing tank 6 for 1-2 hours. After adsorption and extraction are completed, the discharge pipe 24 is used to control the amount of activated carbon in the mixing tank 6. The discharge tube 26 is used to discharge the purified propylene glycol methyl ether acetate. When a certain amount of propylene glycol methyl ether acetate is discharged, the operator can start the servo motor 23. The servo motor 23 drives the connecting rod 22 to rotate. The limiting slider 21 set at the end of the connecting rod 22 can slide along the vertical slide groove 20. The limiting slider 21 can pull the rack 17 to move back and forth, thereby driving the purification tank 4 and the mixing tank 6 to rotate as a whole. The centrifugal force generated by the reciprocating rotation can further facilitate the removal of the propylene glycol methyl ether acetate adsorbed by the activated carbon.

[0033] The above-disclosed embodiments are only a few specific examples of the present utility model. However, the embodiments of the present utility model are not limited thereto. Any changes that can be conceived by those skilled in the art should fall within the protection scope of the present utility model.
