[0002] In the ceramic production process using natural gas, the firing kiln and the drying kiln are the core energy-consuming units. The firing kiln causes physical and chemical changes in the ceramic body through high-temperature firing to form the finished product, while the drying kiln is used to remove moisture from the body and reduce the energy consumption of subsequent firing.
[0003] However, in the existing technology, the flue gas from the firing kiln and the flue gas from the drying kiln are generally collected and sent directly into the desulfurization and dust removal environmental protection equipment as waste gas. The temperature of such waste gas is generally 300℃. After being sent into the desulfurization and dust removal environmental protection equipment, the heat energy cannot be reused, resulting in a waste of heat energy. Utility Model Content

Furthermore, features defined with "first" and "second" may explicitly or implicitly include one or more of these features, used to distinguish descriptive features, without any order or emphasis. In the description of this utility model, unless otherwise stated, "multiple" means two or more.
[0027] In one embodiment of this utility model, such as Figure 1-4 As shown, a hot air conveying system for waste heat utilization includes a firing kiln 1, a drying kiln 2, a waste heat recovery component 3, a thermal oil heat exchange component 4, an output pipe 5, and a spray tower 6. One end of the waste heat recovery component 3 is connected to both the firing kiln 1 and the drying kiln 2, and the other end of the waste heat recovery component 3 is connected to one end of the thermal oil heat exchange component 4. One end of the output pipe 5 is connected to the other end of the thermal oil heat exchange component 4, and the other end of the output pipe 5 is connected to the spray tower 6. The thermal oil heat exchange component 4 is used to transfer the heat from the waste heat recovery component 3 to the output pipe 5. In this embodiment, during operation, the waste gas generated by the firing kiln 1 and the drying kiln 2 enters one end of the thermal oil heat exchanger 4 through the waste heat recovery component 3. Then, the thermal oil heat exchanger 4 uses thermal oil heat exchange to transfer the heat absorbed at one end of the thermal oil heat exchanger 4 to the other end of the thermal oil heat exchanger 4, so that the cold air in the output pipe 5 absorbs the heat at the other end of the thermal oil heat exchanger 4 and becomes hot air. The hot air is then transported to the spray tower 6 for granulation through the output pipe 5. This application uses the firing kiln 1, drying kiln 2, waste heat recovery component 3, thermal oil heat exchanger 4, output pipe 5, and spray tower 6 to recover the directly discharged high-temperature waste gas to the thermal oil heat exchanger 4 and use thermal oil heat exchange to transfer the heat of the waste gas to the output pipe 5, so that the output pipe 5 can output hot air for use in the spray tower 6. This not only enables the effective recovery and utilization of heat, but also reduces the natural gas consumption of the spray tower 6, achieving energy saving and consumption reduction.
[0028] like Figure 1-2 As shown, the heat transfer oil heat exchange assembly 4 includes a first heat exchanger 41, a second heat exchanger 42, a circulating heat transfer pipe 43, and a fourth drive unit 44; one end of the circulating heat transfer pipe 43 is installed inside the first heat exchanger 41, and the other end of the circulating heat transfer pipe 43 is installed inside the second heat exchanger 42. The circulating heat transfer pipe 43 is provided with circulating heat transfer oil, and the fourth drive unit 44 is used to circulate the heat transfer oil. In this embodiment, the housings of the first heat exchanger 41 and the second heat exchanger 42, as well as the circulating heat pipe 43, are all made of 310S stainless steel to make them resistant to high-temperature corrosion. The fourth drive unit 44 is a heat transfer oil circulation pump. During operation, after the waste heat recovery component 3 delivers the high-temperature waste gas into the interior of the first heat exchanger 41, the fourth drive unit 44 drives the heat transfer oil in the circulating heat pipe 43 to circulate, so that the heat transfer oil absorbs the heat from the first heat exchanger 41 and then flows into the interior of the second heat exchanger 42, where the heat is absorbed by the cold air from the output pipe 5 and becomes hot air, which is convenient for subsequent use in the spray tower 6 for granulation. This is convenient, fast, and has high heat exchange efficiency.
[0029] like Figure 1-2As shown, the first heat exchanger 41 is provided with an exhaust gas outlet 411, which is connected to the first heat exchanger 41. The second heat exchanger 42 is provided with a cold air inlet 421, which is connected to the interior of the second heat exchanger 42. In this embodiment, the lower right side of the first heat exchanger 41 is connected to the waste heat recovery component 3, the exhaust port 411 is located at the upper left side of the first heat exchanger 41, the lower left side of the second heat exchanger 42 is connected to the output pipe 5, and the cold air inlet 421 is located at the upper right side of the second heat exchanger 42. During operation, high-temperature exhaust gas enters the interior of the first heat exchanger 41 from the lower right side. After absorbing heat through the circulating heat pipe 43, low-temperature exhaust gas is discharged from the exhaust port 411 and directly sent to the desulfurization tower for low-temperature desulfurization and denitrification. When the heat is transferred to the interior of the second heat exchanger 42, cold air enters from the cold air inlet 421 at the upper right side of the second heat exchanger 42. After the cold air absorbs heat and becomes hot air, it is then transported to the spray tower 6 through the output pipe 5 at the lower left side of the second heat exchanger 42 for use, which is convenient and fast.
[0030] like Figure 1-3 As shown, the waste heat recovery assembly 3 includes a first branch pipe 31, a second branch pipe 32, and a collection pipe 33. One end of the first branch pipe 31 is connected to the firing kiln 1, one end of the second branch pipe 32 is connected to the drying kiln 2, one end of the collection pipe 33 is connected to the other end of both the first branch pipe 31 and the second branch pipe 32, and the other end of the collection pipe 33 is connected to the first heat exchanger 41. In this embodiment, during operation, the waste gas generated by the firing kiln flows from the first branch pipe 31 into the collection pipe 33, and the waste gas generated by the drying kiln 2 returns from the second branch pipe 32 to the collection pipe 33. The high-temperature waste gas from both is then collected and flows into the first heat exchanger 41 through the collection pipe 33, which is convenient and quick.
[0031] like Figure 1-4As shown, the system also includes a first driving device 7, a second driving device 8, and a third driving device 9. The first driving device 7 is installed at the connection between the first branch pipe 31 and the firing kiln 1, and is used to allow the exhaust gas from the firing kiln 1 to enter the first branch pipe 31. The second driving device 8 is installed at the connection between the second branch pipe 32 and the drying kiln 2, and is used to allow the exhaust gas from the drying kiln 2 to enter the second branch pipe 32. The third driving device 9 is installed at the connection between the output pipe 5 and the spray tower 6, and is used to allow the hot air from the output pipe 5 to enter the spray tower 6. In this embodiment, the first driving device 7 is a kiln flue gas fan, the second driving device 8 is a drying flue gas fan, and the third driving device 9 is a flue gas traction fan. During operation, the flue gas from the firing kiln 1 is transported to the first branch pipe 31 through the first driving device 7, the flue gas from the drying kiln 2 is transported to the second branch pipe 32 through the second driving device 8, and the hot air from the output pipe 5 is transported to the spray tower 6 through the third driving device 9.
[0032] like Figure 1-3 As shown, the system also includes a sensor 10, which is installed on the output pipe 5. The sensor 10 is used to detect the hot air temperature of the output pipe 5, and is electrically connected to the first driving device 7 and the second driving device 8 respectively. The first driving device 7 is equipped with a first butterfly valve 71, which is used to control the flow rate of flue gas from the firing kiln 1. The second driving device 8 is equipped with a second butterfly valve 81, which is used to control the flow rate of flue gas from the drying kiln 2. In this embodiment, the sensor 10, the first butterfly valve 71, and the second butterfly valve 81 are all prior art. The sensor 10 is a temperature sensor. During operation, the sensor 10 collects the flue gas temperature in the output pipe 5 and transmits it to the Omron PLC for analog signal conversion. It then controls the opening and closing degree of the first butterfly valve 71 and the second butterfly valve 81, as well as the corresponding fan frequency, thereby adjusting the output of the exhaust gas and thus regulating the hot air temperature to ensure heat utilization.
[0033] like Figure 3 As shown, the outer periphery of the first branch pipe 31, the second branch pipe 32, and the inlet pipe 33 is respectively wrapped with aluminum silicate fiber blankets, and the outer periphery of the aluminum silicate fiber blankets is wrapped with aluminum plates. In this embodiment, the outer periphery of the first branch pipe 31, the second branch pipe 32, and the inlet pipe 33 is wrapped with two layers of 25mm thick aluminum silicate fiber blankets for insulation, and a 1mm thick decorative aluminum plate is wrapped around the outer periphery of the aluminum silicate fiber blankets for protection.
