Description

Technical Field

[0001] This application relates to the field of ammonia separator technology, and more specifically, to a two-stage heat exchange ammonia stripping separator. Background Technology

[0002] The common process for ammonia stripping is as follows: raw ammonia water, after heat exchange with ammonia stripping wastewater, enters the ammonia stripping tower. Steam is introduced at the bottom of the tower, and ammonia vapor evaporated at the top is condensed and sent to the ammonia treatment unit. The low-concentration ammonia stripping wastewater discharged from the bottom of the tower is sent to subsequent treatment processes. The ammonia stripping separator is located at the top of the ammonia stripping tower. Ammonia gas flows inside the pipes, and circulating cooling water flows between the pipes. Its main function is to cool the ammonia gas and water vapor from the condensing ammonia stripping tower, so that the condensate flows back into the ammonia stripping tower, thereby increasing the ammonia concentration. However, conventional separators consume a large amount of cooling water and do not effectively utilize the high-temperature heat source of the ammonia stripping tower, resulting in significant waste. Summary of the Invention

[0003] The purpose of this application is to provide a two-stage heat exchange ammonia stripping and shrinking unit, which can solve the technical problems of large cooling consumption and heat energy waste in existing shrinking units.

[0004] This application provides a two-stage heat exchange ammonia stripping and shrinking unit, including a shell. The shell is a hollow structure with openings at the top and bottom. A first heat exchange tube and a second heat exchange tube are arranged inside the shell. The first heat exchange tube is located below the second heat exchange tube. Both ends of the first heat exchange tube and both ends of the second heat exchange tube extend out of the shell. A first flange is provided at the upper end of the shell, and a second flange is provided at the lower end of the shell.

[0005] Preferably, the outer casing includes a first shell, a second shell, a third shell, and a fourth shell arranged sequentially from bottom to top. The second flange is disposed at the lower end of the first shell, the first heat exchange tube is disposed inside the second shell, the second heat exchange tube is disposed inside the third shell, and the first flange is disposed at the upper end of the fourth shell.

[0006] Preferably, both the first housing and the fourth housing are inverted funnel-shaped structures.

[0007] Preferably, a third flange is provided at the upper end of the first housing, a fourth flange is provided at the lower end of the second housing, and the second housing and the first housing are connected by a flange. A fifth flange is provided at the upper end of the second housing, a sixth flange is provided at the lower end of the third housing, and the third housing and the second housing are connected by a flange. A seventh flange is provided at the upper end of the third housing, and an eighth flange is provided at the lower end of the fourth housing, and the fourth housing and the third housing are connected by a flange.

[0008] Preferably, both the first heat exchange tube and the second heat exchange tube are tube-and-tube structures.

[0009] The beneficial effects of this utility model are:

[0010] The two-stage heat exchange ammonia vaporizer provided by this utility model adopts a staged heat exchange method. In use, a mixture of ammonia and water vapor enters the interior of the shell from the lower end of the shell. The heat collection medium is introduced into the interior of the first heat exchange tube, and cooling water is introduced into the interior of the second heat exchange tube. During the ascent, the mixture of ammonia and water vapor first contacts the first heat exchange tube and exchanges heat, realizing the recovery and utilization of heat energy. After the ammonia continues to rise, it will contact the second heat exchange tube and exchange heat. Since the temperature of the ammonia is reduced after one heat exchange, the amount of cooling water used is reduced. Attached Figure Description

[0021] Example

[0022] like Figure 1 As shown in the figure, this application embodiment provides a two-stage heat exchange ammonia stripping and shrinking device, including a shell 1. The shell 1 is a hollow structure with openings at the top and bottom. A first heat exchange tube 2 and a second heat exchange tube 3 are arranged inside the shell 1. The first heat exchange tube 2 is located below the second heat exchange tube 3. Both ends of the first heat exchange tube 2 and both ends of the second heat exchange tube 3 extend out of the shell 1. A first flange 4 is provided at the upper end of the shell 1. The shell 1 is connected to the ammonia stripping tower through a flange. A second flange 5 is provided at the lower end of the shell 1. The shell 1 is connected to the ammonia treatment device through a flange. The flange connection can ensure the sealing effect and prevent ammonia from overflowing.

[0023] In use, a mixture of ammonia and water vapor enters the interior of the outer shell 1 from the lower end. A heat-collecting medium (hot water at 60℃~70℃) is introduced into the first heat exchange tube 2, and cooling water is introduced into the second heat exchange tube 3. As the mixture rises, it first contacts and exchanges heat with the first heat exchange tube 2, resulting in a heat-collecting medium with a temperature of 70℃~80℃. This heat-collecting medium can then be used as a heat source for winter heating, refrigeration, and other devices requiring low-temperature heat sources, thus achieving heat energy recovery and utilization. As the ammonia continues to rise, it contacts and exchanges heat with the second heat exchange tube 3. Because the temperature of the ammonia decreases after one heat exchange, the amount of cooling water used is reduced. The ammonia with increased concentration is discharged from the upper end of the outer shell 1 and sent to the ammonia treatment device.

[0024] In this embodiment, the outer shell 1 includes a first shell 6, a second shell 7, a third shell 8 and a fourth shell 9 arranged sequentially from bottom to top. The second flange 5 is disposed at the lower end of the first shell 6, the first heat exchange tube 2 is disposed inside the second shell 7, the second heat exchange tube 3 is disposed inside the third shell 8, and the first flange 4 is disposed at the upper end of the fourth shell 9.

[0025] In this embodiment, both the first shell 6 and the fourth shell 9 are inverted funnel-shaped structures. The inverted funnel-shaped first shell 6 is used to increase the gas flow rate at the inlet and enhance turbulence, thereby improving heat transfer efficiency. The inverted funnel-shaped fourth shell 9 can smoothly guide the gas outflow and avoid eddies and energy dissipation caused by sudden expansion.

[0026] In this embodiment, a third flange 10 is provided at the upper end of the first housing 6, a fourth flange 11 is provided at the lower end of the second housing 7, and the second housing 7 is connected to the first housing 6 by a flange. A fifth flange 12 is provided at the upper end of the second housing 7, a sixth flange 13 is provided at the lower end of the third housing 8, and the third housing 8 is connected to the second housing 7 by a flange. A seventh flange 14 is provided at the upper end of the third housing 8, and an eighth flange 15 is provided at the lower end of the fourth housing 9, and the fourth housing 9 is connected to the third housing 8 by a flange. The flange connection between the first housing 6 and the second housing 7, between the second housing 7 and the third housing 8, and between the third housing 8 and the fourth housing 9 can ensure a sealing effect and allow for disassembly of each part, thereby facilitating regular inspection and maintenance of the first heat exchange tube 2, the second heat exchange tube 3, the first housing 6, the second housing 7, the third housing 8, and the fourth housing 9.

[0027] In this embodiment, both the first heat exchange tube 2 and the second heat exchange tube 3 are tube-and-shell tubes. Tube-and-shell tubes have advantages such as simple structure, strong adaptability, high heat exchange efficiency, and are easy to maintain and repair.

[0028] The above are merely preferred embodiments of this application and are not intended to limit this application. Various modifications and variations can be made to this application by those skilled in the art. Any modifications, equivalent substitutions, improvements, etc., made within the spirit and principles of this application should be included within the protection scope of this application.
