Description
Technical Field
[0001] This utility model relates to the field of rotary kiln technology, and more specifically, to a multi-stage waste heat recovery device for rotary kilns to recover zinc oxide. Background Technology
[0002] In the production process of recovering zinc oxide in a rotary kiln, a large amount of high-temperature flue gas is generated during the operation of the rotary kiln. If the huge amount of waste heat contained in this flue gas is directly discharged, it will not only cause serious energy waste, but also pollute the environment due to the dust carried by the high-temperature flue gas, increasing the cost of environmental treatment.
[0003] Currently, most rotary kiln zinc recovery production lines only use a single-stage waste heat utilization method, such as generating steam through a waste heat boiler for heating or power generation. However, the waste heat recovery efficiency is low, and only 30% to 40% of the heat in the flue gas can be recovered, with a large amount of waste heat still being lost with the exhaust gas.
[0004] Meanwhile, traditional waste heat recovery devices are not deeply integrated with the recovery process, making it impossible to use waste heat for preheating raw materials or auxiliary drying. This results in additional fuel consumption for heating raw materials, further increasing production energy consumption and hindering the achievement of energy conservation and environmental protection goals. Therefore, we propose a multi-stage waste heat recovery device for rotary kilns to recover secondary zinc oxide. Utility Model Content
[0005] The purpose of this invention is to provide a multi-stage waste heat recovery device for rotary kilns to recover zinc oxide, thereby addressing the deficiencies mentioned in the background art.
[0006] To achieve the above objectives, this utility model provides the following technical solution: A multi-stage waste heat recovery device for rotary kilns includes a heat exchange box. An air inlet pipe is fixedly installed at the air inlet end of the heat exchange box and connected to the flue gas outlet of the rotary kiln. A serpentine heat exchange tube for heat exchange operation is installed inside the heat exchange box. An insulation box is installed on one side of the heat exchange box, and the heat exchange box and the insulation box are connected by a central pipe. A raw material box for storing raw materials is installed inside the insulation box. A feeding screw feeder is installed at the top of the raw material box, and a discharging screw feeder is installed at the bottom of the raw material box. A secondary pipe is fixedly installed on the side plate of the insulation box, and a vertical pipe is fixedly installed at the end of the secondary pipe. A spiral heat exchange tube for heat exchange is installed inside the vertical pipe.
[0007] Preferably, an induced draft fan is detachably installed at the end of the air inlet pipe, and the induced draft fan is installed at the flue gas outlet of the rotary kiln; This feature allows the flue gas to flow more smoothly into the subsequent heat exchange equipment through the pipeline.
[0008] Preferably, the inlet end of the serpentine heat exchange tube is fixedly installed with an inlet pipe that extends out of the heat exchange box, and the outlet end of the serpentine heat exchange tube is fixedly installed with an outlet pipe that extends out of the heat exchange box. This setting enables normal water inlet and outlet operations.
[0009] Preferably, a cleaning pipe is fixedly installed at the bottom of the heat exchange box, a valve is fixedly installed on the cleaning pipe, and a top cover is detachably installed on the top of the heat exchange box; This setting enables normal cleaning and sewage discharge operations.
[0010] Preferably, a heating chamber is provided between the raw material box and the insulation box, and the central pipe is connected to the heating chamber. The hot air in the heating chamber is used to heat the material in the raw material box.
[0011] Preferably, both the feeding screw feeder and the discharging screw feeder extend out of the insulation box, and the discharge end of the discharging screw feeder is connected to the feed inlet of the rotary kiln. This setting enables the addition of raw materials.
[0012] Preferably, a drain pipe is fixedly installed at the bottom of the insulated box, and a discharge valve is fixedly installed on the drain pipe. The raw material box and the insulated box are fixed together by multiple support rods. This setting allows for sewage discharge operations at the sewage pipe location.
[0013] Preferably, the top of the heat preservation box is detachably fitted with a sealing cover, and a stirring motor is fixedly installed at the center of the top of the sealing cover. A vertically arranged stirring shaft is fixedly installed at the end of the output shaft of the stirring motor, and stirring blades are fixedly installed on the stirring shaft. The stirring blades are located inside the raw material box. This setting enables the material mixing operation to proceed normally.
[0014] Preferably, an air inlet hood is fixedly installed at the air inlet end of the spiral heat exchange tube, and a blower is detachably installed at the end of the air inlet hood. An air outlet pipe is fixedly installed at the air outlet end of the spiral heat exchange tube, and the air outlet pipe is connected to the combustion air inlet of the rotary kiln. This setting allows air to be introduced for heat exchange, and the heat-exchanged air can be supplied to the combustion air inlet of the rotary kiln.
[0015] Compared with the prior art, the beneficial effects of this utility model are: 1. This utility model achieves staged heat exchange of high-temperature flue gas from the rotary kiln by setting up a heat exchange box with the air inlet end connected to the flue gas outlet of the rotary kiln, installing serpentine heat exchange tubes inside the heat exchange box, and connecting the heat exchange box to an insulation box with a raw material box through a central pipe. It first recovers part of the waste heat using the serpentine heat exchange tubes, and then introduces the remaining waste heat into the insulation box to heat the raw material box, thus changing the limitations of traditional single-stage recovery and achieving the effect of improving the overall utilization rate of waste heat and reducing energy waste.
[0016] 2. This utility model sets up a raw material box inside the insulation box. The top and bottom of the raw material box are connected to the feeding screw feeder and the discharging screw feeder, respectively. The discharging screw feeder is connected to the rotary kiln inlet. In conjunction with the heating chamber inside the insulation box, the waste heat of the flue gas is used to heat the raw material. This realizes that the waste heat can be directly used for the preheating of the zinc oxide raw material without the need for additional fuel consumption to heat the raw material. This solves the problem of the disconnect between traditional equipment and production process, and achieves the effect of reducing production energy consumption and meeting the requirements of energy conservation and environmental protection.
[0017] 3. This utility model achieves the use of waste heat from the flue gas to heat air by setting a vertical pipe with a spiral heat exchange tube on the side of the insulation box. The air inlet end of the spiral heat exchange tube is connected to a blower, and the air outlet end is connected to the combustion air inlet of the rotary kiln. This allows the use of waste heat from the flue gas to heat air, and the heated air after heat exchange is delivered to the rotary kiln for combustion, further tapping the value of waste heat. At the same time, increasing the temperature of the combustion air can reduce the fuel consumption of the rotary kiln, thereby maximizing the use of waste heat and reducing the overall production energy consumption.

[0021] In this embodiment, a heat exchange box 1 is provided with an insulation box 2 on one side. The heat exchange box 1 and the insulation box 2 are connected by a central pipe 18.

At the same time, cold water is introduced through the water inlet pipe 14 of the serpentine heat exchange tube 13. After the cold water exchanges heat with the high-temperature flue gas, hot water or steam is output from the water outlet pipe 15 for subsequent use, thus completing the primary waste heat recovery. The cooled flue gas in heat exchange box 1 enters the heating chamber 21 of insulation box 2 through central pipe 18 to heat the zinc oxide raw material in raw material box 20; the feeding screw conveyor 24 is started to feed the raw material into raw material box 20, and at the same time the stirring motor 28 is turned on to drive the stirring shaft 281 and stirring blades 282 to turn the raw material to ensure uniform heating; the heated raw material is transported to the rotary kiln feed port through the discharge screw conveyor 25 to achieve raw material preheating; The flue gas in the insulation box 2 enters the vertical pipe 30 through the auxiliary pipe 3.
