Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This utility model relates to a processing equipment, specifically a processing equipment for hard carbon anode materials for sodium-ion batteries, belonging to the field of processing technology for hard carbon anode materials for sodium-ion batteries. Background Technology
[0002] In the field of sodium-ion batteries, hard carbon has become the mainstream anode material due to its core advantages such as adaptable interlayer spacing and high sodium storage capacity. Bituminous coal, with its high carbon content and easily modulated carbon structure into amorphous hard carbon through subsequent processes, is an ideal precursor for the large-scale preparation of hard carbon anodes. However, bituminous coal naturally contains ash and sulfur. If these impurities remain, they will damage the sodium storage channels of hard carbon and trigger side reactions during battery charging and discharging. Therefore, it is necessary to remove them through acid leaching pretreatment with 1-2M hydrochloric acid to control the final ash and sulfur content of hard carbon and ensure its sodium storage performance and cycle stability.
[0003] In the acid leaching process of bituminous coal for hard carbon anode materials in sodium-ion batteries, the current mainstream equipment is mostly batch reactors. During use, the process involves repeated feeding, acid leaching, shutdown for discharge, and cleaning, making continuous operation impossible. After acid leaching, the bituminous coal particles and acid solution need to be separated, which is mostly done by static sedimentation or centrifugation. However, after being ultra-finely pulverized, the bituminous coal particles are very fine and easily lost with the acid solution. Moreover, during discharge, these fine particles often block the valve channels that control the discharge, requiring frequent disassembly and cleaning of the valves to restore equipment operation.

A sealing plate 505 is fixedly installed on mounting block 506, and the sealing plate 505 is slidably connected to receiving hopper 502. When the mixture slides down the inclined surface of receiving hopper 502, the filter screen 503 fixed inside receiving hopper 502 intercepts bituminous coal particles, while the acid flows through the filter screen 503 to the drain pipe 507 at the bottom of acid leaching tank 1. If it is necessary to pause the discharge, hydraulic rod 504 is restarted. The sealing plate 505 is pushed upward to block the channel of the receiving hopper 502; the part of the acid leaching tank 1 near the filter screen 503 is connected to the drain pipe 507, and the two guide plates 501 are symmetrically arranged about the overflow plate 4. The guide plates 501 are arranged with an inclined structure. After the bituminous coal particles have reached the standard for acid leaching, a small amount of acid solution is added slowly to raise the liquid level in the acid leaching tank 1 above the top of the overflow plate 4. The mixture of bituminous coal particles and acid solution overflows naturally along the overflow plate 4. The part of the acid leaching tank 1 near the overflow plate 4 is solidified. A guide plate 501 is provided, and the inclined structure of the guide plate 501 accurately guides the overflow mixture into the receiving hopper 502 to avoid material splashing or deviation; the top of the overflow plate 4 is set with a sawtooth structure, and both the receiving hopper 502 and the filter screen 503 are set with an inclined structure. The receiving hopper 502 is connected to the interior of the acid leaching tank 1 through the filter screen 503. The bottom end of the sealing plate 505 contacts the inner wall of the receiving hopper 502, and the width of the sealing plate 505 is smaller than the width of the receiving hopper 502.
[0019] As a technical optimization of this utility model, a connecting mechanism 3 is installed inside the acid leaching tank 1. The connecting mechanism 3 includes a hot water circulation pipe 301 and a liquid inlet pipe 302. The liquid inlet pipe 302 is fixedly installed on the acid leaching tank 1, and two hot water circulation pipes 301 are symmetrically fixed on the acid leaching tank 1. Hot water is introduced into the hot water circulation pipe 301 and enters the heat preservation cavity 303 provided inside the acid leaching tank 1. The temperature inside the acid leaching tank 1 is kept stable through circulation, which facilitates the acid leaching reaction rate and avoids hydrochloric acid volatilization. The heat preservation cavity 303 is provided near the hot water circulation pipe 301 of the acid leaching tank 1. The hot water circulation pipe 301 is connected to the heat preservation cavity 303, and the liquid inlet pipe 302 is connected to the inside of the acid leaching tank 1.
[0020] As a technical optimization of this utility model, a stirring mechanism 2 is rotatably installed in the middle of the acid leaching tank 1 and the overflow plate 4. The stirring mechanism 2 includes a rotating frame 202 and scrapers 203. Several scrapers 203 are rotatably installed in the middle of the acid leaching tank 1 and the overflow plate 4. A motor 201 is fixedly installed on the acid leaching tank 1. The output end of the motor 201 is fixedly connected to a rotating shaft 206 through a coupling. A sleeve rod 204 is fixedly installed on the rotating shaft 206. Several rotating frames 202 and stirring rods 205 are fixedly installed at equal intervals on the sleeve rod 204. The rotating frames 202 and the scrapers 203 are fixedly connected. The sleeve rod 204... The rotating shaft 206 is rotatably connected to the acid leaching tank 1 and the overflow plate 4. The output end of the motor 201 drives the rotating shaft 206 to rotate through the coupling, which in turn drives the sleeve rod 204, the rotating frame 202 fixed on the side wall, and the stirring rod 205 to rotate. The stirring rod 205 breaks up the bituminous coal particles to prevent agglomeration and ensure that the particles are in full contact with the acid solution. The rotating frame 202 drives the scraper 203 fixed at the end to scrape the bottom of the acid leaching tank 1 and the side wall of the overflow plate 4 to prevent the bituminous coal particles from accumulating. The end of the stirring rod 205 is spherical, and there is a stirring rod 205 between two adjacent rotating frames 202. The end of the scraper 203 is inclined.
[0021] In use, this invention first injects hydrochloric acid solution into the acid leaching tank 1 through the inlet pipe 302, with the injection amount ensuring the liquid surface does not touch the top of the overflow plate 4. Then, hot water is introduced into the hot water circulation pipe 301, entering the heat preservation chamber 303 located inside the acid leaching tank 1. Circulation maintains a stable temperature within the acid leaching tank 1, thus ensuring the acid leaching reaction rate and preventing hydrochloric acid evaporation. The hydraulic rod 504 fixed on the acid leaching tank 1 is activated, its extension end driving the mounting block 506 to push the sealing plate 505 along the inner wall of the receiving hopper 502 to the closed position, preventing leakage during subsequent material addition. Finally, ultra-finely pulverized bituminous coal particles are added to the acid leaching tank 1, the amount of which... The liquid level is controlled at 5-10cm from the top of the overflow plate 4; then, the switch of the motor 201 fixed on the acid leaching tank 1 is turned on. The output end of the motor 201 drives the rotating shaft 206 to rotate through the coupling, which in turn drives the sleeve rod 204, the rotating frame 202 fixed on the side wall, and the stirring rod 205 to rotate. The stirring rod 205 breaks up the bituminous coal particles to prevent agglomeration and ensure that the particles are in full contact with the acid liquid. The rotating frame 202 drives the scraper 203 fixed at the end to scrape the bottom of the acid leaching tank 1 and the side wall of the overflow plate 4 to prevent the bituminous coal particles from accumulating; then, hot water is continuously replenished through the hot water circulation pipe 301, and the heat preservation chamber 303 ensures that the acid leaching reaction proceeds stably; when the bituminous coal particles are acid leached... After reaching the target level, continue to slowly add a small amount of acid solution until the liquid level in the acid leaching tank 1 rises above the top of the overflow plate 4. The mixture of bituminous coal particles and acid solution overflows naturally along the overflow plate 4. A guide plate 501 is fixed near the overflow plate 4 in the acid leaching tank 1. The inclined structure of the guide plate 501 accurately guides the overflowing mixture into the receiving hopper 502, preventing material splashing or deviation. As the mixture slides down the inclined surface of the receiving hopper 502, the filter screen 503 fixed in the receiving hopper 502 intercepts the bituminous coal particles, while the acid solution flows through the filter screen 503 to the drain pipe 507 at the bottom of the acid leaching tank 1. If it is necessary to pause the discharge, restart the hydraulic rod 504 to push the sealing plate 505 upward. Block the channel of receiving hopper 502; during normal discharge, the sealing plate 505 remains open to ensure smooth material flow; open the drain pipe 507 valve to transport the acid solution that has passed through the filter screen 503 to the acid solution circulation system. After concentration calibration, it can be reused for acid leaching through the inlet pipe 302. The wet bituminous coal particles intercepted in the receiving hopper 502 slide along the inclined surface of the receiving hopper 502 into the plate and frame filter press for dehydration and washing, ultimately becoming hard carbon precursors; after the acid leaching batch is completed, turn off the motor 201 and the hot water circulation pipe 301, and inject clean water through the inlet pipe 302 to rinse the acid leaching tank 1. The scraper 203 rotates synchronously to assist in cleaning, and the wastewater is discharged through the drain pipe 507 for treatment.
