Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of urea production technology, and in particular to a device for reducing the ammonia content in urea venting exhaust gas. Background Technology

[0002] Urea, chemically known as carbodiamine, is an organic compound containing approximately 46% nitrogen. It is a white crystal or powder at room temperature, easily soluble in water, and has no obvious odor. However, in the CO2 stripping process for urea production, the exhaust gas from the urea plant has a high ammonia content. This results in the emission of waste gas, wastewater, and solid waste, which pollutes the environment. Furthermore, it increases system consumption, raises production costs, and reduces economic efficiency.

[0003] Currently, most exhaust gas venting pipes release ammonia from two main sources: the ammonia in the low-pressure absorption tower entering the venting pipe and the ammonia in the inert gas emitted from the high-pressure absorption tower. The venting pipes release the ammonia directly into the atmosphere without treatment, causing environmental pollution.

[0004] Therefore, it is necessary to provide a new device for reducing the ammonia content in urea venting exhaust gas to solve the above-mentioned technical problems. Utility Model Content

[0017] To make the objectives, technical solutions, and advantages of this utility model clearer, the present utility model will be further described in detail below with reference to the accompanying drawings and embodiments. It should be understood that the specific embodiments described herein are merely for explaining the present utility model and are not intended to limit the present utility model.

[0018] The specific implementation of this utility model will be described in detail below with reference to specific embodiments. Please see Figures 1 to 4 A device for reducing the ammonia content in urea venting exhaust gas includes: an atmospheric pressure absorption tower 1, a low-pressure absorption tower 2, a reabsorption tower 3, a venting cylinder 4, and a mixing tank 15. An atmospheric pressure output pipe 101 is fixedly connected to the top of the atmospheric pressure absorption tower 1, which is responsible for conveying the gas treated by the atmospheric pressure absorption tower 1. A low-pressure output pipe 201 is fixedly connected to the top of the low-pressure absorption tower 2 for conveying the gas treated by the low-pressure absorption tower 2. A two-way pipe 301 is fixedly connected to one side of the reabsorption tower 3. The end of the atmospheric pressure output pipe 101 away from the atmospheric pressure absorption tower 1 is fixedly connected to one end of the two-way pipe 301. The end of the low-pressure output pipe 201 away from the low-pressure absorption tower 2 is fixedly connected to the two-way pipe 301. The other end of pipe 301 is fixedly connected. This connection allows the gases from the atmospheric pressure and low pressure absorption towers to converge into the two-way pipe 301 and enter the reabsorption tower 3 together. The top of the reabsorption tower 3 is fixedly connected to a vent pipe 302. The end of the vent pipe 302 away from the reabsorption tower 3 is fixedly connected to the input end of the vent cylinder 4. The exhaust gas after being treated by the reabsorption tower 3 can be transported to the vent cylinder 4 through the vent pipe 302 and finally discharged into the atmosphere. A carbon dioxide input pipe 303 is installed at the bottom of the reabsorption tower 3. The carbon dioxide input pipe 303 can introduce carbon dioxide gas into the reabsorption tower 3 to create an acidic environment inside the tower, which helps to absorb alkaline ammonia substances.

[0019] The slag discharge assembly is installed at the bottom axis of the reabsorption tower 3. The slag discharge assembly includes a slag discharge pipe 5. The top end of the slag discharge pipe 5 is fixedly connected to the bottom axis of the reabsorption tower 3. An electric gate valve 6 is installed on the slag discharge pipe 5. When it is necessary to discharge the waste residue at the bottom of the reabsorption tower 3, the electric gate valve 6 is opened, and the waste residue can be discharged through the slag discharge pipe 5, thereby ensuring the cleanliness of the inside of the reabsorption tower 3.

[0020] The inner wall of the reabsorption tower 3 is equipped with three packing layers 7 from top to bottom. The lower packing layer 7 uses metal stepped ring packing with a height of 1.2m. The metal stepped ring packing has a large specific surface area and porosity, which can provide sufficient space for gas-liquid contact and improve mass transfer efficiency. The middle packing layer 7 uses plastic conjugate ring packing with a height of 1.5m. The plastic conjugate ring packing not only has good corrosion resistance, but also enhances the turbulence of gas and liquid, further promoting ammonia absorption. The upper packing layer 7 uses metal wire mesh corrugated packing with a height of 0.8m. The metal wire mesh corrugated packing has high mass transfer efficiency and can deeply absorb ammonia in the tail gas. An inclined pipe 8 is fixedly connected to the bottom of the reabsorption tower 3 away from the axis. The inclined design of the inclined pipe 8 is conducive to the flow and collection of the absorbent liquid. A circulation pump 9 is installed at the end of the inclined pipe 8 away from the reabsorption tower 3. The circulation pump 9 provides power to transport the absorbent liquid. A transmission pipe 10 is fixedly connected to the end away from the inclined pipe 8. The transmission pipe 10 has three output ends, and each output end is fixedly connected to a fixed pipe 11. A portion of the outer side of the fixed pipe 11 is fixedly connected to the inner wall of one side of the reabsorption tower 3, which serves to fix and support the fixed pipe 11. A gathering hood 12 is fixedly connected to the end of the fixed pipe 11 away from the transmission pipe 10. The gathering hood 12 can gather the liquid transported from the fixed pipe 11, which is convenient for subsequent spraying or cleaning operations. Multiple high-pressure cleaning nozzles 13 are fixedly connected to the bottom end of the gathering hood 12. When it is necessary to clean the packing layer 7, the high-pressure cleaning nozzles 13 can spray high-pressure water to wash away the impurities attached to the packing layer 7. Multiple spray nozzles 14 are fixedly connected to the bottom end of the gathering hood 12. During normal ammonia absorption, the spray nozzles 14 can spray the absorbent liquid evenly onto the packing layer 7, so that the absorbent liquid and the tail gas can fully contact each other and improve the ammonia absorption rate.

[0021] A water pump 16 is installed on the outside of the mixing tank 15. When it is necessary to clean the packing layer 7, demineralized water is added to the mixing tank 15, the water pump 16 is started, and the demineralized water flows and is then transmitted to the high-pressure cleaning nozzle 13 to rinse the packing. During normal operation, dilute sulfuric acid and demineralized water are added to the mixing tank 15 and mixed. The mixed solution forms an acidic absorbent. Then the water pump 16 works, and the mixed solution flows and is sprayed by the spray nozzle 14, so that the absorbent reacts with the ammonia in the exhaust gas, thereby absorbing the ammonia. The output end of the water pump 16 is fixedly connected to a water pipe 17. The end of the water pipe 17 away from the water pump 16 is fixedly connected to the outside of the transmission pipe 10. This connection allows the liquid transported by the water pump 16 to enter the transmission pipe 10 through the water pipe 17 and then be transported to each fixed pipe 11.

[0022] The working principle of the device for reducing the ammonia content in urea venting exhaust gas provided by this utility model is as follows: In the process of reducing the ammonia content in the urea venting tail gas, firstly, the atmospheric pressure absorption tower 1 operates, and its top atmospheric pressure output pipe 101 begins to transport the treated gas. At the same time, the low pressure absorption tower 2 also starts, and its top low pressure output pipe 201 also transmits the corresponding gas. These gases enter the reabsorption tower 3 together through the two-way pipe 301. Then, carbon dioxide gas is introduced into the carbon dioxide input pipe 303 at the bottom of the reabsorption tower 3 to create an acidic environment inside the tower, which helps to absorb alkaline ammonia substances. Then, the circulation pump 9 starts to work, driving the absorbent liquid in the inclined pipe 8 to flow. The absorbent liquid passes through the transmission pipe 10 and the fixed pipe 11, so that the gathering hood 12 is ready for subsequent spraying or cleaning operations. When cleaning of the packing layer 7 is required, demineralized water is added to the mixing tank 15, the water pump 16 is started, and the water pipe 17 is driven to transport the demineralized water. The demineralized water reaches the collection hood 12 through the transmission pipe 10 and the fixed pipe 11, which in turn causes the high-pressure cleaning nozzle 13 to spray out the demineralized water to rinse the packing layer 7 in the reabsorption tower 3 and remove the impurities attached to the packing layer 7. When the normal ammonia absorption is carried out, dilute sulfuric acid and demineralized water are added to the mixing tank 15 and mixed. The water pump 16 is started again, and the mixed liquid is driven through the water pipe 17, the transmission pipe 10 and the fixed pipe 11 to reach the collection hood 12, so that the spray nozzle 14 sprays out the mixed liquid, which fully contacts the tail gas in the reabsorption tower 3 to absorb the ammonia in the tail gas. In addition, the slag discharge assembly at the bottom of the reabsorption tower 3 also plays a role. The electric gate valve 6 on the slag discharge pipe 5 is opened or closed as needed. When it is necessary to discharge waste residue and other substances from the bottom of the tower, the electric gate valve 6 is opened, allowing the waste residue to be discharged through the slag discharge pipe 5. After a series of absorption, cleaning and other operations, the treated tail gas is transmitted to the venting cylinder 4 through the venting pipe 302 at the top of the reabsorption tower 3, and finally discharged into the atmosphere from the venting cylinder 4, thereby achieving the purpose of reducing the ammonia content in the urea venting tail gas.
