Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This utility model relates to the field of biogas collection technology, and in particular to a biogas collection device for anaerobic digestion. Background Technology
[0002] Anaerobic digestion of sludge refers to a digestion technology in which facultative and anaerobic bacteria decompose biodegradable organic matter in sludge into CH4, CO2, H2O, and H2S under anaerobic conditions. It can remove 30% to 50% of the organic matter in waste and stabilize it. It is one of the commonly used methods for sludge reduction and stabilization and is the most economical sludge treatment method in large-scale wastewater treatment plants. The gas produced by the treated sludge can be used as clean energy after filtration and recovery. It is mostly liquefied and stored. However, existing storage is mostly in the form of steel cylinders, which do not have protective functions. In the event of a fire, these steel cylinders will explode when the temperature reaches a certain level, with unimaginable consequences. Based on this, this application proposes an anaerobic digestion biogas collection device to solve the above problems. Utility Model Content
[0003] The purpose of this invention is to overcome the shortcomings of the existing technology and provide an anaerobic digestion biogas collection device.
[0004] The purpose of this utility model is achieved through the following technical solution: an anaerobic digestion biogas collection device, including a collection tank, wherein the top edge and bottom edge of the side of the collection tank both protrude outward to form a limiting ring, a fireproof layer and a heat insulation layer are installed between the two limiting rings in sequence, three partition plates are installed on the inner wall of the collection tank from bottom to top, a first valve is installed in the middle of the bottom partition plate, a one-way valve is installed in the middle of the other two partition plates, and a second valve is installed in the middle of the top of the collection tank.
[0005] Optionally, the top of the collection tank is raised upwards, and the collection tank is made of steel material welded together.
[0006] Optionally, the outer diameter of the two limiting rings is the same as the outer diameter of the insulation layer.
[0007] Optionally, the thickness of the heat insulation layer is greater than the thickness of the fireproof layer, and the material of the heat insulation layer is ceramic.
[0008] Optionally, the fireproof layer is made of high-density felt, and the fireproof layer is coated with adhesive on both the inner and outer walls.
[0009] This utility model has the following advantages:
[0010] This anaerobic digestion biogas collection device uses a collection tank as the main body, with fireproof and heat insulation layers installed on the outer wall of the collection tank. This forms a fire barrier on the outer wall of the collection tank. The protective and heat insulation layers work together to effectively block heat conduction to the collection tank in the event of a fire, reducing the temperature of the collection tank and keeping it within a safe range. In addition, multiple partitions divide the interior of the collection tank into three parts, which helps to improve the structural strength of the collection tank and prevent deformation.

[0015] The present invention will be further described below with reference to the accompanying drawings, but the scope of protection of the present invention is not limited to the following description.
[0016] like Figures 1 to 3 As shown, an anaerobic digestion biogas collection device includes a collection tank 1. The top and bottom edges of the collection tank 1 protrude outwards to form limiting rings 8. A fireproof layer 7 and a heat insulation layer 2 are sequentially installed between the two limiting rings 8. Three partition plates 4 are sequentially installed on the inner wall of the collection tank 1 from bottom to top. A first valve 6 is installed in the middle of the bottom partition plate 4, and one-way valves 5 are installed in the middle of the other two partition plates 4. A second valve 3 is installed in the middle of the top of the collection tank 1. The first valve 6 is used to connect with an external biogas inlet pipe, while the second valve 3 is used to connect with a biogas outlet pipe to facilitate the release of biogas. Simultaneously, the two one-way valves 5 prevent biogas backflow.
[0017] As an optional technical solution of this utility model, the top of the collection tank 1 is raised upwards, and the collection tank 1 is made of steel material welded together, which is convenient.
[0018] As an optional technical solution of this utility model, the outer diameter of the two limiting rings 8 is the same as the outer diameter of the heat insulation layer 2. This makes it easy for the heat insulation layer 2 and the limiting rings 8 to form a circular outer wall, which can block the installation position of the heat insulation layer 2 and prevent the top and bottom of the heat insulation layer 2 from being deformed by external impact.
[0019] As an optional technical solution of this utility model, the thickness of the heat insulation layer 2 is greater than the thickness of the fireproof layer 7. The material of the heat insulation layer 2 is ceramic fiber. Ceramic fiber is a high-performance fiber with inorganic materials (such as alumina, silicon dioxide, etc.) as the main body. With its lightweight, high temperature resistance, and low thermal conductivity, it is widely used in industrial and special fields. It can withstand high temperatures of 1000Β°C to 1600Β°C for a long time. As a heat insulation layer in high-temperature furnaces, metallurgical equipment and spacecraft thermal protection systems, it effectively reduces heat loss and protects the equipment structure, thereby facilitating effective protection of the collection tank 1 and reducing the burning of the collection tank 1 by external fire.
[0020] As an optional technical solution of this utility model, the fireproof layer 7 is made of high-dimensional felt. The fireproof layer 7 is coated with adhesives on both the inner and outer walls. High-dimensional felt refers to a type of functional industrial or domestic felt product made from fiber materials (such as palm, ceramic fiber or synthetic fiber) through a specific process. High-dimensional felt mainly uses inorganic fibers such as alumina and silicon dioxide as the base material. It is resistant to high temperature (1600β) and has low thermal conductivity. It is used for high-temperature scenarios such as heat insulation and sealing of industrial furnaces and kilns. This makes it easy to cooperate with the heat insulation layer 2 to protect the collection tank 1 together.
[0021] In summary, the features, assembly method, usage process, and functions of each component in this utility model are as follows: By using the collection tank 1 as the main body, and installing a fireproof layer 7 and a heat insulation layer 2 on the outer wall of the collection tank 1, a fire barrier is formed on the outer wall of the collection tank 1. At the same time, the protective layer 8 and the heat insulation layer 2 work together to effectively block heat from being conducted to the collection tank 1 in the event of a fire, thereby reducing the temperature of the collection tank 1 and keeping the temperature of the collection tank 1 within a safe range. Meanwhile, multiple partition plates 4 divide the interior of the collection tank 1 into three parts. The partition plates 4 help to improve the structural strength of the collection tank 1 and prevent it from deforming.
