[0016] Figure 1 This is a schematic diagram of the structure of the defoaming and dust removal device of this utility model.
[0017] [Explanation of Key Component Symbols] 1: Outer shell 2: Baffle settling bell jar 3: Inner riser pipe 4: Filter element 5: Detachable and disassembly flange Detailed Implementation
[0018] To further illustrate the technical means and effects adopted by this utility model in order to achieve the intended purpose of the invention, the following detailed description of the specific implementation method, structure, features and effects of the demister dust collector proposed according to this utility model is provided in conjunction with the accompanying drawings and preferred embodiments.
[0019] Please see Figure 1The diagram shows the structure of the demister and dust collector of this utility model. The demister and dust collector includes a vertical cylindrical outer shell 1. The lower end of the cylindrical outer shell 1 has a conical end cap with a radial dimension that gradually narrows from top to bottom. The conical end cap is used to collect electrolyte particles and dust. Its conical structure design facilitates more thorough cleaning in the later stages.
[0020] At least one slag discharge port 6 is provided on the lower outer periphery of the conical head for discharging the material accumulated inside the conical head. In this embodiment of the invention, there are two slag discharge ports 6, namely slag discharge port c1 and slag discharge port c2, which are symmetrically distributed on both sides of the conical head. Both slag discharge ports c1 and c2 can be connected to external valves and return pipes to the electrolytic cell to enable the reuse of the collected liquid electrolyte and reduce the hassle of disassembly and cleaning. In other embodiments of the invention, the slag discharge ports 6 can also be blind-plugged with flange covers and periodically disassembled for cleaning. Multiple slag discharge ports 6 can be provided, evenly distributed along the circumference of the conical head to ensure thorough cleaning of solid deposits in different locations.
[0021] The upper part of the cavity of the outer shell 1 is provided with a filter element 4 for gas dust removal. The inner tube of the filter element 4 is connected to the air outlet b at the top of the outer shell 1, so that the gas is filtered by the filter element 4 and discharged from the air outlet b.
[0022] The lower part of the cavity of the outer shell 1 is provided with an inner gas riser pipe 3, which extends vertically and its lower end is connected to an air inlet a located at the bottom of the conical head. The air inlet a is located outside the outer shell 1, and its inlet end is used to connect to the gas outlet pipe of the electrolytic cell, while its outlet end is connected to the lower end of the inner gas riser pipe 3. Preferably, the inlet end of the air inlet a is provided with a flange for easy connection to the gas outlet pipe of the electrolytic cell, but this is not a limitation.
[0023] The axial extension length of the inner layer riser pipe 3 meets the requirement that the temperature of the gas discharged at its end outlet is below 70 degrees Celsius, so that the temperature of the fluorine gas discharged from the inner layer riser pipe 3 is below 70 degrees Celsius, while the condensation and solidification temperature of the electrolyte droplets carried in the fluorine gas is about 70 degrees Celsius. The gas pre-cooled by the inner layer riser pipe 3 can achieve the effect of rapid cooling and sedimentation.
[0024] The upper outer periphery of the inner layer riser pipe 3 is covered by a baffle settling bell jar 2, which is open at the bottom and closed at the top. After the gas is discharged from the inner layer riser pipe 3, it is blocked and deflected by the baffle settling bell jar 2, causing it to move downwards along the baffle settling bell jar 2. During the movement, it is cooled and settled. Finally, the gas, after settling and removing electrolyte particles, flows out from below the baffle settling bell jar 2 and flows upwards through the space between the baffle settling bell jar 2 and the outer shell 1. Then, it is filtered and dust-removed by the filter element 4 and discharged from the outlet b. In this embodiment of the present invention, the inner diameter of the baffle settling bell jar 2 is approximately 3-10 times the inner diameter of the inner layer riser pipe 3, and its length is 1 / 4-1 / 2 of the length of the inner layer riser pipe 3, to ensure a sufficiently low gas flow velocity and a sufficiently long cooling and settling time.
[0025] In this embodiment, the baffle settling bell jar 2 is positioned higher than the conical end cap to prevent the material from being carried up again after settling. Preferably, the upper inner wall of the baffle settling bell jar 2 is connected and fixed to the outer wall of the inner air riser 3 via a connecting plate, thus forming a support cover around the inner air riser 3.
[0026] The inner diameter and axial extension length of the outer shell 1 are much larger than the inner diameter and axial extension length of the inner riser pipe 3, and its volume is 10-30 times that of the riser pipe, so as to ensure that the conical head has sufficient collection capacity and gas residence time, so as to have a sufficiently long maintenance cycle.
[0027] In this embodiment, the filter element 4 is made of high-nickel alloys such as Monel alloy and Hastelloy alloy, or pure nickel material, which have good resistance to fluorine gas corrosion (other components of the equipment may be made of carbon steel, stainless steel or nickel-based alloys). Preferably, the pore size of the filter element 4 is 50-500 mesh.
[0028] To facilitate the inspection and replacement of the filter element 4, a removable disassembly flange 5 is provided on the top of the outer casing 1. This removable disassembly flange 5 is detachably fixed to the top of the outer casing 1, used to cover the top of the outer casing 1, and can be separated from the outer casing 1 when the filter element 4 needs to be inspected and replaced, opening the upper space of the outer casing 1. The gas outlet b is located on this removable disassembly flange 5. Preferably, the removable disassembly flange 5 includes an upper flange for connecting to a fluorine gas transmission pipeline, a lower flange for connecting to the outer casing 1, and a pipeline connecting the upper flange and the lower flange. The outer diameter of the lower flange is close to the outer diameter of the outer casing to reduce the outer diameter of the equipment and the footprint.
[0029] In this embodiment of the utility model, the inner air riser 3, the baffle settling bell jar 2 and the outer shell 1 are coaxially arranged from the inside to the outside, but are not limited thereto.
[0030] In this embodiment of the invention, the sealing material at each interface of the demister is pure metal to ensure corrosion resistance to fluorine gas. For example, the seal between the air inlet a at the bottom of the outer shell and the outlet pipe of the electrolytic cell, the seal between the slag discharge port 6 and the external valve and return pipe, and the seal at the upper and lower flanges of the detachable decomposition flange 5 are all made of pure metal.
[0031] The above description is merely a preferred embodiment of the present utility model and is not intended to limit the present utility model in any way. Although the present utility model has been disclosed above with reference to a preferred embodiment, it is not intended to limit the present utility model. Any person skilled in the art can make some modifications or alterations to the above-disclosed technical content to create equivalent embodiments without departing from the scope of the present utility model. Any simple modifications, equivalent changes, and alterations made to the above embodiments based on the technical essence of the present utility model without departing from the scope of the present utility model shall still fall within the scope of the present utility model.
