Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of photocatalytic reaction devices, specifically a gas-liquid-solid three-phase foam photocatalytic reaction device. Background Technology

[0002] Photocatalytic reactors use photocatalysts to absorb light energy to excite electron-hole pairs, driving redox reactions and achieving functions such as environmental governance, energy conversion, and chemical synthesis. They promote sustainable development in the environmental protection, energy, and chemical industries in an efficient and environmentally friendly manner.

[0003] Existing photocatalytic reaction devices suffer from problems such as low mass transfer efficiency at the gas-liquid interface, poor foam stability, and uneven light distribution when processing gas-liquid mixed systems. These issues make it difficult to fully utilize the catalytic efficiency of amphiphilic photocatalytic materials. For example, traditional aeration devices often have large and unevenly distributed bubbles, which can easily lead to rapid foam rupture. Furthermore, the light source is mostly unilateral, resulting in limited light penetration depth and insufficient activation of catalyst active sites. Therefore, a gas-liquid-solid three-phase foam photocatalytic reaction device is proposed to address these problems. Utility Model Content

One end of the aeration head 3 extends into the interior of the reaction tube 2 and is slidably connected to the inner cavity of the reaction tube 2. The surface of the housing 1 is fitted with... The device has a top cover 101, on the surface of which a gas flow meter 4 and a gas washing bottle 5 are fixedly mounted. The input end of the gas flow meter 4 is fixedly connected to an inlet pipe 41 and a return pipe 52. An adjustable switch 4101 is provided on the surface of the inlet pipe 41. The output end of the gas flow meter 4 is fixedly connected to an air supply pipe 42. One end of the air supply pipe 42 is fixedly connected to the input end of the aeration head 3.

One end of the trachea 52 passes through the gas washing bottle 5 and is slidably connected to the inner cavity of the gas washing bottle 5; the surface of the reaction tube 2 is also fitted with a jacket, and a light source array 23 is arranged in a ring array between the jacket and the reaction tube 2. The light source array 23 consists of multiple ultraviolet LED light sources with a wavelength of 365nm and a total power of 15-20W, achieving full-range illumination. Furthermore, the reaction tube 2 is made of high-transmittance quartz glass with a volume of 500-1000mL, and the inner wall of the reaction tube 2 is also equipped with… The system includes a hydrophobic coating (fluorocarbon coating with a contact angle of 100-120°) and a mesh guide plate (polytetrafluoroethylene with a pore size of 2-3 mm) to stabilize the foam. The aeration head 3 is made of carbon alloy with a pore size of 50-100 μm. The gas flow meter 4 has a flow range of 0.5-1.0 L / min. The temperature control module 104 consists of a heater, sensor, controller, actuator, and auxiliary components; this is existing technology and will not be elaborated further. When photocatalytic reaction is required, the material is added to the reaction tube 2, and the reaction tube 2 is placed in the box. The reaction tube 2 is supported by the bracket 102. Then, the top cover 101 is connected to the box body 1, the aeration head 3 is connected to the stopper 22, and the stopper 22 is connected to the reaction tube 2. The stopper 22 is then connected to the reaction tube 2 so that the aeration head 3 extends into the interior of the reaction tube 2.

A positioning sleeve 103 is threadedly fitted into the inner cavity of the top cover 101. One end of the positioning sleeve 103 abuts against the surface of the positioning plate 21. When the reaction tube 2 is inserted into the bracket 102, the positioning plate 21 abuts against the surface of the bracket 102. Then the positioning sleeve 103 is threadedly fitted into the top cover 101. Therefore, one end of the positioning sleeve 103 abuts against the positioning plate 21 to stabilize the positioning plate 21 between the bracket 102 and the positioning sleeve 103, thereby stabilizing the position of the reaction tube 2.

[0019] Reference Figure 3 and Figure 4 A fixing sleeve 2201 is rotatably connected to the surface of the plug 22, and the fixing sleeve 2201 is threaded onto the surface of the aeration head 3. A connecting block 2202 is fixedly installed on the side of the fixing sleeve 2201 opposite to the plug 22. The connecting block 2202 is slidably connected to the inside of the plug 22. A support block 2203 is fixedly installed on the surface of the connecting block 2202, and the surface of the support block 2203 is slidably connected to the inner cavity of the plug 22. When the aeration head 3 is connected to the plug 22, the aeration head 3 passes through the plug 22 and the fixing sleeve 2201 is rotated, so that the fixing sleeve 2201 is threadedly connected to the surface of the aeration head 3. The position of the connecting block 2202 is stabilized by the support block 2203 to prevent the connecting block 2202 from separating from the plug 22. The position of the fixing sleeve 2201 is stabilized by the connecting block 2202, so that the aeration head 3 is connected to the plug 22, and the aeration head 3 is installed inside the reaction tube 2 through the plug 22.

[0020] Reference Figure 2 , Figure 3 and Figure 4 A connecting sleeve 2204 is rotatably fitted around the periphery of the stopper 22, and the inner cavity of the connecting sleeve 2204 is threadedly connected to the surface of the reaction tube 2.

A limiting block 2207 is fixedly installed on the surface of the slider 2205, and the surface of the limiting block 2207 is slidably connected to the inner cavity of the groove 2206. When the stopper 22 is connected to the reaction tube 2... Insert the aeration head 3 into the inside of the reaction tube 2, and insert the plug 22 into the reaction tube 2. Rotate the connecting sleeve 2204 so that the connecting sleeve 2204 is threadedly connected to the surface of the reaction tube 2. The position of the slider 2205 is stabilized by the limiting block 2207, and the position of the connecting sleeve 2204 is stabilized by the slider 2205 and the groove 2206. Thus, the plug 22 is fixed inside the reaction tube 2 by the connecting sleeve 2204, so that the plug 22 can seal the reaction tube 2 and stabilize the position of the aeration head 3.

[0021] Working principle: When a photocatalytic reaction is required, the material is added to the reaction tube 2, and water is added inside the box. Then, the reaction tube 2 is inserted into the bracket 102, so that the positioning plate 21 abuts against the bracket 102. Next, the top cover 101 is aligned with the box 1, and the positioning sleeve 103 is threaded onto the inside of the top cover 101, so that one end of the positioning sleeve 103 abuts against the surface of the positioning plate 21, thereby fixing the reaction tube 2 in the bracket 102. Then, the aeration head 3 is passed through the plug 22, and the fixing sleeve 2201 is rotated. The fixing sleeve 2201 is threadedly connected to the surface of the aeration head 3, and the position of the connecting block 2202 is stabilized by the support block 2203 to prevent the connecting block 2202 from separating from the plug 22. The position of the fixing sleeve 2201 is stabilized by the connecting block 2202, thereby aligning the aeration head 3 with the plug 22. Then, the aeration head 3 is inserted into the interior of the reaction tube 2, and the plug 22 is inserted into the reaction tube 2. The connecting sleeve 2204 is rotated to thread it onto the surface of the reaction tube 2, and the slider 2205 is stabilized by the limiting block 2207. The position of the connecting sleeve 2204 is stabilized by the slider 2205 and the groove 2206, thereby fixing the plug 22 inside the reaction tube 2 through the connecting sleeve 2204. This allows the plug 22 to seal the reaction tube 2 and stabilize the position of the aeration head 3. Then, the air inlet pipe 41 is connected to the external air pump, the aeration head 3 is connected to the gas flow meter 4 through the air supply pipe 42, and the aeration head 3 is connected to the gas washing bottle 5 through the air release pipe 51. The gas washing bottle 5 is connected to the gas flow meter 4 through the return pipe 52, and oxygen is supplied by the external air pump. Gas is fed into the aeration head 3 through the air inlet pipe 41, gas flow meter 4, and air delivery pipe 42. The aeration head 3 generates uniform microbubbles in the material. The light source array 23 provides illumination, and the water in the chamber 1 is heated by the temperature control module 104 to provide a water bath for the reaction tube 2. The microbubbles increase the gas-liquid contact interface area, providing sufficient reaction for the photocatalytic reaction. The hydrophobic coating and mesh guide plate stabilize the bubble flow, delay foam collapse, ensure the continuous progress of the three-phase reaction, and eliminate the need for an additional stirring structure. It also facilitates the recovery of the gas after the reaction.
