Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of gas venting of sulfur-containing hot spring water, and in particular to a gas venting device for sulfur-containing hot spring water. Background Technology

[0002] Sulfur-containing hot spring water easily generates flash steam during extraction. The main components of flash steam are methane (CH4), hydrogen sulfide (H2S), and a small amount of water vapor. Hydrogen sulfide (H2S) is a highly toxic gas; even a small amount inhaled can lead to poisoning or death. The explosive limits of H2S are relatively wide (4.3%-46%), and the flash steam generated by sulfur-containing hot spring water has a high methane content. Direct emission of flash steam from sulfur-containing hot spring water can easily form steam plumes, posing an explosion risk. Direct emission of flash steam from sulfur-containing hot spring water will pollute the atmosphere. Currently, flash steam generated by sulfur-containing hot spring water is treated by combustion through artificial ignition.

[0003] However, the current venting devices vent flash vapors, which rely on manual ignition, are prone to gas leakage due to delayed ignition or failure to automatically reignite after extinguishing. Furthermore, the high liquid content in the vented air results in a low ignition success rate. Since hydrogen sulfide in flash vapors is a highly toxic gas, positive pressure air respirators must be worn during manual ignition to reduce harm to operators. Moreover, delayed ignition may lead to gas accumulation, potentially causing an explosion or fire. Utility Model Content

[0004] The purpose of this invention is to overcome the shortcomings of existing technologies, such as the difficulty in igniting flash steam generated by sulfur-containing hot spring water and the safety hazards in ignition operation, and to provide a gas venting device for sulfur-containing hot spring water.

[0005] This utility model provides a gas venting device for sulfur-containing hot spring water, comprising: The liquid separator is provided with a separation chamber, an air inlet pipe, a liquid outlet pipe and an exhaust pipe, the air inlet pipe, the liquid outlet pipe and the exhaust pipe are respectively connected to the separation chamber; the exhaust pipe is provided with a flame arrester, the flame arrester is located between the ignition device and the liquid separator; An ignition device is provided, which is connected to the exhaust pipe; the ignition device is equipped with a control device, which is electrically connected to the ignition device; the ignition device is capable of generating an electric arc.

[0006] This invention relates to a gas venting device for sulfur-containing hot spring water. A separator is used to separate sulfur-containing hot spring water droplets entrained in the venting air. A flame arrester prevents negative pressure in the separator from causing backfire and avoids backfire and deflagration accidents. An ignition device ignites the sulfur-containing combustible gas separated from the separator, which is then released into the atmosphere after combustion, preventing environmental pollution. The device is electrically connected to a control device, using arc ignition to ignite the sulfur-containing combustible gas, ensuring timely ignition. Operators can perform ignition remotely via the control device, simplifying the ignition process and enabling timely re-ignition of the venting gas, thus improving ignition efficiency, reducing ignition difficulty, ensuring operator safety, and minimizing environmental pollution.

[0007] Preferably, the ignition device includes an ignition electrode and a wind shield, the ignition electrode extends into the wind shield, the wind shield is connected to the exhaust pipe, the liquid separator and / or the exhaust pipe is connected to the ignition electrode, the wind shield and the ignition electrode are spaced apart, and the ignition electrode is electrically connected to the control device.

[0008] The wind shield prevents wind from affecting the ignition success rate; the wind shield and the ignition electrode are spaced apart, and the combustible gas in the exhaust pipe is discharged into the wind shield. The ignition electrode generates an electric arc by discharging into the wind shield, which ignites the combustible gas in the wind shield; the ignition electrode is fixed to the liquid separator and / or exhaust pipe, thereby fixing the ignition electrode firmly and fixing the relative position of the ignition electrode and the wind shield, thus fixing the position where the electric arc is generated; the control device can control the discharge of the ignition electrode remotely.

[0009] Preferably, the wind shield is provided with an ignition plate and a vertically penetrating ignition channel. The ignition plate is located in the ignition channel, the exhaust pipe is connected to the ignition channel, the end of the ignition electrode extends into the ignition channel, and the end of the ignition electrode is spaced apart from the ignition plate.

[0010] The exhaust pipe is connected to the ignition channel, allowing the gas discharged from the exhaust pipe to diffuse into the ignition channel. An ignition plate is installed in the ignition channel, and the ignition electrode discharges to the ignition plate to generate an electric arc. The position of the electric arc generated in the ignition channel is fixed to ensure the ignition rate of the combustible gas, making the combustible gas easier to ignite.

[0011] Preferably, the ignition electrode includes a rod-shaped structural member, an insulating component, and a connecting component.

[0012] The connecting assembly connects and fixes the rod-shaped structural component to the separator and / or exhaust pipe, thereby fixing the rod-shaped structural component and the windproof cover at a specified distance. This ensures that the electric arc generated during ignition can ignite the combustible gas inside the windproof cover. The insulator can electrically isolate the rod-shaped structural component from the connecting component, preventing the windproof cover and the rod-shaped structural component from having the same potential. This ensures that an electric arc can be generated between the rod-shaped structural component and the windproof cover, preventing the separator from becoming electrified and ensuring the safe use of the separator.

[0013] Preferably, the connecting assembly includes a first connector and a second connector, the first connector being connected to the exhaust pipe and the second connector being connected to the liquid separator; the insulating assembly includes a first insulator and a second insulator, the first insulator being connected to the first connector and the second insulator being connected to the second connector, the rod-shaped structural member being connected to the first insulator and the rod-shaped structural member being connected to the second insulator.

[0014] The rod-shaped structural member is fixed firmly by simultaneously using the first and second connectors.

[0015] Preferably, the connecting component has a through hole, the rod-shaped structural member passes through the through hole, and the rod-shaped structural member penetrates the insulating component.

[0016] By setting through holes, the connection area between the insulating component and the connecting component is increased, the connection of the insulating component is made more secure, and the position of the rod-shaped structural member fixed on the insulating component is made more stable.

[0017] Preferably, the rod-shaped structural member has an ignition part at one end near the ignition plate, the ignition part is conical, and the ignition part is spaced apart from the ignition plate.

[0018] The ignition part discharges an electric arc to the ignition plate to ignite the combustible gas; the ignition part is constructed in a cone shape to control the generation of an electric arc at the tip of the cone.

[0019] Preferably, the gas outlet of the exhaust pipe and the ignition plate are located on opposite sides of the ignition channel.

[0020] The high concentration of combustible gas at the exhaust pipe outlet increases the ignition success rate and reduces combustible gas leakage.

[0021] Preferably, the windproof cover is a conductive metal component, and the windproof cover is in communication with the ground.

[0022] This creates a sufficiently large potential difference between the wind shield and the ignition electrode to generate an electric arc.

[0023] Preferably, the drain pipe is provided with a drain valve and a connector, the connector being connected to the air inlet pipe and located between the drain valve and the air inlet pipe.

[0024] A drain valve is installed on the drain pipe, and the drain pipe is connected to the air inlet pipe through a connector. During gas-liquid separation, the drain valve is closed. After the combustible gas is vented, the drain valve is opened, allowing the liquid to return to the production pipeline through the exhaust pipe. When maintaining the drain tank, the connector is removed, and the drain valve is used as a sewage valve, allowing the wastewater from cleaning the separation tank to be discharged through the drain pipe.

[0034] Example 1 like Figures 1-5 As shown. A gas venting device for sulfurous hot spring water, comprising: Separating tank 1, the separating tank 1 is provided with a separation chamber, an air inlet pipe 2, a drain pipe 3 and an exhaust pipe 4, the air inlet pipe 2, the drain pipe 3 and the exhaust pipe 4 are respectively connected to the separation chamber; the exhaust pipe 4 is provided with a flame arrester 5, the flame arrester 5 is located between the ignition device 6 and the separating tank 1; Ignition device 6 is connected to exhaust pipe 4; ignition device 6 is provided with control device 9, which is electrically connected to ignition device 6; ignition device 6 is capable of generating electric arc.

[0035] Separating tank 1 is used to separate sulfur-containing hot spring water droplets carried in the venting air. Flame arrester 5 prevents negative pressure in the raw water separator from causing backfire and avoids backfire and deflagration accidents. Ignition device 6 ignites the sulfur-containing combustible gas separated from separating tank 1, and the combustible gas is released into the atmosphere after combustion, avoiding environmental pollution. The control device 9 is electrically connected to the ignition device 6, and the sulfur-containing combustible gas is ignited by electric arc ignition, which has good ignition timeliness. Operators can perform ignition operations remotely through the control device 9, which simplifies the ignition operation process, enables operators to re-ignite the venting air gas in a timely manner, improves ignition efficiency, reduces ignition difficulty, ensures the safety of operators, and reduces environmental pollution. In one or more embodiments, the ignition device 6 consists of an ignition electrode 62 and a wind shield 61. The ignition electrode 62 extends into the wind shield 61, causing the ignition electrode 62 to discharge onto the wind shield 61, generating an electric arc within the wind shield 61. This electric arc ignites the combustible gas within the wind shield 61. The wind shield 61 is connected to the end of the exhaust pipe 4, allowing the combustible gas in the exhaust pipe 4 to be discharged into the wind shield 61, where it is ignited. The ignition electrode 62 is fixed by connecting to the separator 1 or the exhaust pipe 4, ensuring a fixed position of the ignition electrode 62 from the wind shield 61. This guarantees that the ignition electrode 62 can stably generate an electric arc each time ignition occurs, thus ensuring a high ignition success rate. The wind shield 61 and the ignition electrode 62 are spaced apart. The ignition electrode 62 is electrically connected to the control device 9, which controls the timing of the ignition electrode 62 being energized to generate an electric arc.

[0036] In an optional embodiment, the wind shield 61 is provided with an ignition plate 612 and a vertically penetrating ignition channel 611. The vertically penetrating ignition channel 611 allows the wind shield 61 to better block the incoming wind, allowing the gas inside the wind shield 61 to fully contact oxygen, making the combustible gas inside the wind shield 61 easier to ignite and ensuring complete combustion of the combustible gas. The ignition plate 612 is located inside the ignition channel 611, generating an electric arc between the ignition plate 612 and the ignition electrode 62, thereby fixing the position of the electric arc generation. The exhaust pipe 4 is connected to the ignition channel 611, and the ignition electrode 62... The end of the ignition electrode 62 extends into the ignition channel 611, allowing the combustible gas in the exhaust pipe 4 to enter the ignition channel 611. The combustible gas is ignited by the electric arc generated in the ignition channel 611. The end of the ignition electrode 62 is spaced apart from the ignition plate 612, and an electric arc is generated between the ignition electrode 62 and the ignition plate 612. When setting the position of the ignition electrode 62, it should be ensured that the distance between the side of the ignition electrode 62 and the protective cover is greater than the distance between the end of the ignition electrode 62 and the ignition plate 612, so as to ensure that the electric arc is only generated between the end of the ignition electrode 62 and the ignition plate 612.

[0037] In an optional embodiment, the ignition electrode 62 includes a rod-shaped structural member 621, an insulating component 622, and a connecting component 623. The connecting component 623 is connected to the liquid separator 1 or the exhaust pipe 4, so that the connecting component 623 supports the rod-shaped structural member 621 and the insulating component 622. The connecting component 623 is connected to the insulating component 622, and the rod-shaped structural member 621 is connected to the insulating component 622. The insulating component 622 isolates the rod-shaped structural member 621 to prevent ignition failure caused by the rod-shaped structural member 621 and the wind shield 61 being at the same potential, and to prevent the separation tank from being ignited, which would lead to safety risks. The rod-shaped structural member 621 and the wind shield 61 are spaced apart. The rod-shaped structural member 621 is electrically connected to the control device 9. The control device 9 controls the timing of the discharge of the rod-shaped structural member 621 to the wind shield 61, generating an electric arc between the wind shield 61 and the rod-shaped structural member 621, thereby achieving ignition.

[0038] In an optional embodiment, the connecting component 623 includes a first connecting member 6231 and a second connecting member 6232. The first connecting member 6231 is connected to the exhaust pipe 4, and the second connecting member 6232 is connected to the liquid separator 1. The insulating component 622 includes a first insulator 6221 and a second insulator 6222. The first insulator 6221 is connected to the first connecting member 6231, and the second insulator 6222 is connected to the second connecting member 6232. The rod-shaped structural member 621 is connected to the first insulator 6221, and the rod-shaped structural member 621 is connected to the second insulator 6222. The first connecting member 6231 and the second connecting member 6232 are respectively provided on the exhaust pipe 4 and the liquid separator 1, so that both the first connecting member 6231 and the second connecting member 6232 support the rod-shaped structural member 621, thereby ensuring the connection firmness of the rod-shaped structural member 621.

[0039] In an optional embodiment, the connecting component 623 has a through hole 6233, through which the rod-shaped structural member 621 passes and through the insulating component 622; thus ensuring that the insulating component 622 is firmly fixed on the connecting component 623.

[0040] In an optional embodiment, the rod-shaped structural member 621 is provided with an ignition part 624 at one end near the ignition plate 612. The ignition part 624 is conical and is spaced apart from the ignition plate 612. The tip of the conical ignition part 624 generates an electric arc, thereby fixing the position of the electric arc and ensuring the ignition success rate.

[0041] In an optional embodiment, the gas outlet of the exhaust pipe 4 and the ignition plate 612 are located on opposite sides of the ignition channel 611, so that the combustible gas can be ignited by the electric arc after being discharged into the ignition plate 612. The concentration of combustible gas at the gas outlet of the exhaust pipe 4 is higher and it is easier to be ignited, thereby reducing the leakage of combustible gas and environmental pollution.

[0042] In an optional embodiment, the wind shield 61 is a conductive metal part, and the wind shield 61 is in contact with the ground, so that a potential difference is generated between the wind shield 61 and the ignition electrode 62, thereby successfully generating an electric arc.

[0043] In one or more embodiments, the drain pipe 3 is provided with a drain valve 7 and a connector 8. The connector 8 is connected to the air inlet pipe 2 and is located between the drain valve 7 and the air inlet pipe 2. By providing a drain valve 7 on the drain pipe 3, the drain pipe 3 is connected to the air inlet pipe 2 through the connector 8. When performing gas-liquid separation, the drain valve 7 is closed. After the combustible gas is vented, the drain valve 7 is opened, allowing the liquid to return to the production pipeline through the exhaust pipe 4. When maintaining the drain tank, the connector 8 is removed, and the drain valve 7 is used as a sewage discharge valve. Wastewater from cleaning the separation tank can be discharged through the drain pipe 3, preventing wastewater from entering the production pipeline.

[0044] The above description is only a preferred embodiment of the present utility model and is not intended to limit the present utility model. Any modifications, equivalent substitutions and improvements made within the spirit and principles of the present utility model should be included within the protection scope of the present utility model.
