Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This application relates to the field of precipitation filtration equipment technology, and in particular to a cerium hydroxide precipitation filtration equipment. Background Technology
[0002] In the preparation process of cerium hydroxide, precipitation filtration is the core step to achieve solid-liquid separation and product purification. The process involves multiple coordinated steps such as precipitation formation, feed liquid transportation, filtration separation, and filter cake treatment. The operational precision of each step directly affects the purity and yield of the final product.
[0003] In practical applications, it has been found that in traditional filtration devices, the mixture of cerium hydroxide precipitate and mother liquor is often directly discharged into the filter box through a single pipe. The material falls naturally under gravity, easily forming a dense accumulation in the central area of the filter plate. As filtration progresses, the precipitate gradually accumulates to form a filter cake, with the concentrated accumulation area developing an excessively thick filter cake layer first. This excessively thick filter cake layer exacerbates inter-particle bridging. The precipitate particles are compressed together to form a dense structure, which not only hinders the flow of mother liquor but also traps some of it inside the filter cake, leading to increased moisture content and increased energy consumption in subsequent drying processes. Simultaneously, the filter pores in the concentrated accumulation area are easily clogged by fine particles, requiring frequent disassembly of the filter plate for cleaning, interrupting the production process and further reducing equipment utilization. Therefore, we propose a cerium hydroxide precipitation filtration device to solve these problems. Utility Model Content
[0004] The purpose of this application is to address the shortcomings of existing technologies, such as the easy increase of filter cake moisture content and easy clogging of filter pores by fine particles, the need for frequent disassembly of filter plates during cleaning, and the reduction of equipment utilization. Therefore, a cerium hydroxide precipitation filtration device is proposed.

[0011] By adopting the above technical solution and by setting up a filtration mechanism, the mixture of cerium hydroxide precipitate and mother liquor is discharged into the filter box through the feed pipe and falls onto the filter plate supported by the mounting base. This allows the mother liquor to permeate through the filter holes of the filter plate and be collected below, while the cerium hydroxide precipitate is retained on the filter plate, thus achieving the purpose of solid-liquid separation.

[0016] A further configuration of this application is as follows: the transmission mechanism includes two transmission wheels and a transmission belt. Transmission wheels are fixedly sleeved on both the reciprocating lead screw and the motor output shaft.

[0019] By adopting the above technical solution, and by setting an arc plate, the arc plate can guide and limit the movement of the lead screw seat, so that the lead screw seat can slide stably back and forth along the arc plate under the drive of the reciprocating lead screw, avoiding the lead screw seat from deviating, shaking or jamming during the movement.

[0034] Specifically, the reciprocating mechanism includes a reciprocating lead screw 5 and a lead screw seat 501. The same reciprocating lead screw 5 is rotatably installed on the inner left side of the function box 3 and the inner right side of the filter box 2.

[0038] In this application, during use, the cerium-containing solution and precipitant are first fed into the reaction vessel 1 below the partition 101 through the feed pipe 102. After the controller sets the reaction parameters, the motor 301 is started. The output shaft of the motor 301 drives the stirring shaft 4 to rotate through two meshing bevel gears 302. The stirring shaft 4 can drive the stirring frame 401 to stir the liquid, which can achieve the purpose of fully contacting and reacting the cerium ions in the solution with the precipitant to form cerium hydroxide precipitate; at the same time, the scraper 402 on the outside of the stirring frame 401 is in contact with the reaction vessel.

The mixture of cerium precipitate and mother liquor is discharged into the filter box 2 through the feed pipe 103 and falls onto the filter plate 202 supported by the mounting base 201. This allows the mother liquor to permeate through the filter holes of the filter plate 202 and be collected below, while the cerium hydroxide precipitate is trapped on the filter plate 202, achieving the purpose of solid-liquid separation. At this time, the reciprocating material brush 601 moves back and forth to move the precipitate on the filter plate 202, which can flatten the concentrated precipitate, avoid local excessive thickness, and increase the resistance to mother liquor permeation, thereby improving the filtration efficiency. At the same time, the material moving action can break the bridging structure between the precipitate particles, promote the discharge of mother liquor wrapped in the gaps between the particles, and reduce the moisture content of the filter cake. During the filtration process, if the pressure in the reactor 1 exceeds the safety value, the pressure relief valve can automatically open to release the pressure and ensure the safe operation of the equipment. After filtration is completed, the controller shuts off the motor 301 and the solenoid valve, the material brush 601 stops at the initial position, and the operator opens the front door of the filter box 2 to remove the cerium hydroxide filter cake on the filter plate 202.
