Description

[Technical Field]

[0001] The present invention relates to an apparatus used for mass transfer such as waste gas treatment, and more particularly to a supergravity apparatus that uses rotational centrifugal force to generate a supergravity field for mass transfer. [Background technology]

[0002] For example, a conventional supergravity device described in Patent Document 1 has a rotating shaft 4, a rotating bed unit 3 that is driven to rotate by the rotating shaft 4, and a conduit 7 that sprays a liquid into the fluid flow space 30 of the rotating bed unit 3. The operating principle of such a supergravity device is to utilize the supergravity field generated by the rotating bed unit 3 rotating at high speed to cause the liquid sprayed into the fluid flow space 30 of the rotating bed unit 3 to be thrown out of the rotating bed unit 3 in the radial direction, thereby, in waste gas treatment, for example, capturing suspended particulate matter or water-soluble gaseous pollutants in the waste gas passing through the rotating bed unit 3 with the liquid that passes through the rotating bed unit 3 and is thrown out of the rotating bed unit 3, thereby removing the suspended particulate matter or water-soluble gaseous pollutants from the waste gas. However, in this configuration, when some of the liquid is sprayed toward the rotating shaft 4 through the conduit 7, this part of the liquid accumulates at the bottom of the fluid flow space 30, so the amount of liquid passing through the rotating bed unit 3 is insufficient and uneven, so there is still room for improvement in the efficiency of waste gas treatment using this conventional hypergravity device.

[0009] In order to more clearly explain the objectives, technical means, and advantages of the embodiments of the present invention, the following will clearly and completely describe the technical means in the embodiments of the present invention in combination with the accompanying drawings of the embodiments of the present invention. It should be apparent that the described embodiments are only some embodiments of the present invention, and not all embodiments. Generally, the components of the embodiments of the present invention depicted and shown in the accompanying drawings can be arranged and designed in various different configurations. Therefore, the detailed description of the embodiments of the present invention provided below in the accompanying drawings does not constitute any limitation on the protection scope of the present invention, but merely represents selected embodiments of the present invention.

[0010] Also, in the following description, please note that elements that fulfill the same role or function are denoted by the same numbers even if they do not have exactly the same configuration.

[0011] 1 shows a first embodiment of a supergravity device 100 of the present invention. This supergravity device 100 is suitable for removing suspended particulate matter or water-soluble gaseous pollutants contained in a gas to be treated (not shown) using a first fluid 9 (usually a liquid, but can also be a gas). This supergravity device 100 comprises a rotating shaft 1, a rotating bed means 2, a first injection pipe 3, and a first spray ring 4.

[0012] The rotating shaft 1 is configured to be rotatable under control about a predetermined axis L extending from the bottom side to the top side. The rotating bed means 2 has a bottom wall 21 connected to the rotating shaft 1 and a first filler layer 22 formed in a cylindrical shape extending parallel to the rotating shaft 1 and disposed on the bottom wall 21, and is configured to be rotatable together with the rotating shaft 1. The first filler layer 22 is configured to allow fluid to pass through, opens toward the top side away from the bottom wall 21, faces the axis L side, and has a first filler layer inner circumferential surface 222 that defines an injection space 221 together with the bottom wall 21, and a first filler layer outer circumferential surface 223 on the opposite side to the first filler layer inner circumferential surface 222.

[0013] The first injection pipe 3 is arranged to be inserted from the top side to the bottom side into the injection space 221 of the rotating bed means 2 along the axis L from the top side to the bottom side, thereby spraying the first fluid 9 from the outside toward the first filler layer inner surface 222 of the first filler layer 22 of the rotating bed means 2 (see the black triangular arrow A1 in Figure 1 for the spray direction). Specifically, the first injection pipe 3 is formed in a tubular shape and has a first bottom plate 31 facing the bottom wall 21 of the rotating bed means 2 and a side wall 32 extending from the periphery of the first bottom plate 31 to the top side. A first guide passage 33 used to guide the first fluid 9 from the outside is defined inside the first injection pipe 3, and the first guide passage 33 has at least one first bottom-side injection port 331 formed in the first bottom plate 31. The first fluid 9 in the first guide passage 33 is injected toward the bottom side by each of the first bottom-side injection ports 331 (see the injection direction indicated by the black triangular arrow A2 in FIG. 1) and reaches the inside of the first spray ring 4. The number of each of the first bottom-side injection ports 331 can be appropriately designed as needed.

[0014] When the rotating bed means 2 is driven by the rotating shaft 1 and rotates around the rotating shaft 1 to generate a supergravity field, the first fluid 9 can pass from the first filler layer inner surface 222 to the first filler layer outer surface 223 of the first filler layer 22, and the gas to be treated can pass from the first filler layer outer surface 223 to the first filler layer inner surface 222 or the top side of the first filler layer 22 (see the white triangular arrow B1 in Figure 1 for the direction in which the gas to be treated passes to the first filler layer inner surface 222; see the white triangular arrow B2 in Figure 1 for the direction in which it passes to the top side of the first filler layer 22). At this time, the gas to be treated comes into contact with the first fluid 9 as it passes through the first filler layer 22, thereby removing suspended particulate matter or water-soluble gaseous pollutants contained in the gas to be treated.

[0015] The first spray ring 4 is formed in an annular shape and is disposed on the bottom wall 21 so as to be positioned within the injection space 221. The first spray ring 4 is moved by the bottom wall 21 to rotate about the rotation axis 1, and has a first annular peripheral wall 41, a first annular top wall 42, an internal space 43, an injection port 431, and a plurality of first dispersion holes 432. The first annular peripheral wall 41 extends from the bottom wall 21 toward the top side and is formed to surround the axis L. The first annular top wall 42 extends from the top portion of the first annular peripheral wall 41 toward the rotation axis 1 in the radial direction of the rotation axis 1 (i.e., extends inward). The injection ports 431 penetrate from the inner surface to the outer surface of the first annular top wall 42 at positions facing each of the first bottom-side injection ports 331. An internal space 43 communicating with the injection port 431 is defined by the bottom wall 21, the first annular peripheral wall 41, and the inner surface of the first annular top wall 42. Each first dispersion hole 432 is located at a portion corresponding to the first filler layer inner peripheral surface 222 in the axial direction of the rotating shaft 1. Each first dispersion hole 432 penetrates from the inner surface to the outer surface of the first annular peripheral wall 41 along the radial direction of the rotating shaft 1, and communicates with the injection port 431 via the internal space 43. The injection port 431 is used to guide the first fluid 9 from the first injection pipe 3 to each first dispersion hole 432. Specifically, when the first spray ring 4 rotates together with the bottom wall 21 driven by the rotary shaft 1, the first fluid 9 from the first bottom-side injection port 331 travels in sequence along the directions indicated by the black triangular arrows A3, A4, and A5 in Fig. 1 and is ejected onto the inner surface of the first annular peripheral wall 41, and the first fluid 9 ejected onto the inner surface of the first annular peripheral wall 41 is restricted by the first annular top wall 42 to stop flowing toward the top side. In this first embodiment, the first dispersion holes 432 form multiple rows in the axial direction of the rotary shaft 1, and the multiple first dispersion holes 432 in each row are arranged in a ring shape on the first annular peripheral wall 41 around the axis L. However, in other embodiments, it is possible to form only one first dispersion hole 432, or to form multiple first dispersion holes 432 in a row in the axial direction of the rotary shaft 1; that is, it is possible to design appropriately as needed.

[0016] During operation of the supergravity device 100, the first injection pipe 3 injects the first fluid 9 from the outside into the rotating bed means 2, and the rotating shaft 1 rotates under control to drive the rotating bed means 2 and the first spray ring 4 to rotate about the rotating shaft 1. At least a portion of the first fluid 9 from the outside is guided by the first injection pipe 3 and injected into the injection port 431 of the first spray ring 4 via each first bottom-side injection port 331. As the first spray ring 4 is rotated by the rotating shaft 1 and the bottom wall 21, the first fluid 9 passes from the first injection pipe 3 through the injection port 431 and the internal space 43, and then from the inner surface of the first annular peripheral wall 41 to the outer surface of the first annular peripheral wall 41 through each first spray hole 432, and is injected onto the inner circumferential surface 222 of the first filler layer (see the black triangular arrow A6 in FIG. 1 for the injection direction). As a result, by injecting the first fluid 9 from the first filler layer inner surface 222 through each first dispersion hole 432, the range in which the first fluid 9 is injected in the axial direction of the first filler layer inner surface 222 is expanded, so that the first fluid 9 can reach some areas below the first filler layer inner surface 222 that the first fluid 9 cannot reach directly from the first injection pipe 3, thereby achieving the effect of making the injection of the first fluid 9 in the first filler layer 22 more uniform and improving mass transfer efficiency.

[0017] The rotating bed means 2 further includes a top wall 23 disposed on the top side of the first filler layer 22. A plurality of top-side openings 231 are formed in the top wall 23 at positions adjacent to the inner peripheral surface 222 of the first filler layer, penetrating from the top side to the bottom side. Each top-side opening 231 is an opening for passing gas (i.e., the gas to be treated) from the first filler layer 22, but the number of top-side openings 231 may be one, and can be appropriately designed as needed. After the gas to be treated passes through the first filler layer 22 and comes into contact with the first fluid 9 passing through the first filler layer 22, and suspended particulate matter or water-soluble gaseous pollutants are removed, the gas to be treated is discharged from the rotating bed means 2 through each top-side opening 231.

[0018] To explain further, in this first embodiment, the height (proximity to the top side) of the first annular peripheral wall 41 in the axial direction of the rotary shaft 1 (i.e., the top-bottom direction) is lower than the height of the first filler layer 22 in the axial direction of the rotary shaft 1, and the first injection pipe 3 extends from the outside into the injection space 221. The first guide passage 33 further has a plurality of side injection ports 332 formed in the side wall 32. The side injection ports 332 are arranged on the side wall 32 at intervals in the axial direction of the rotating shaft 1, and by injecting the first fluid 9 from the outside onto other parts of the first filler layer inner circumferential surface 222, the first injection pipe 3 can inject the first fluid 9 from each side injection port 332 onto a portion of the first filler layer inner circumferential surface 222 closer to the bottom. Furthermore, the position where the first fluid 9 guided by each side injection port 332 is injected (sprayed) onto the first filler layer inner circumferential surface 222 is higher (closer to the top) than the position where the first fluid 9 guided by each first spray hole 432 is injected onto the first filler layer inner circumferential surface 222, further expanding the area where the first fluid 9 is injected onto the first filler layer inner circumferential surface 222. The number of side injection ports 332 may be only one, and can be appropriately designed as needed.

[0019] 2 shows a variation of the first embodiment, in which the height (proximity to the top side) of the first annular peripheral wall 41 of the first spray ring 4 in the axial direction of the rotary shaft 1 is not lower than the height of the first filler layer 22 in the axial direction of the rotary shaft 1, the first injection pipe 3 is located outside the injection space 221, and the rotary shaft 1 extends into the internal space 43. In addition, since the side wall 32 of the first injection pipe 3 does not have a side injection port 332 (see FIG. 1), the first fluid 9 from the outside guided by the first guide passage 33 of the first injection pipe 3 is all injected from each first bottom-side injection port 331 into the injection port 431 of the first spray ring 4, and each first distribution hole 432 injects the first fluid 9 over the entire range of the first filler layer inner peripheral surface 222 in the axial direction of the rotary shaft 1.

[0020] Figure 3 shows another modified example of this first embodiment. As shown, in the example shown in Figures 1 and 2, the outer surface of the first annular peripheral wall 41 is located away from the inner peripheral surface 222 of the first filler layer, but in this other modified example of Figure 3, the outer surface of the first annular peripheral wall 41 of the first spray ring 4 abuts against the inner peripheral surface 222 of the first filler layer of the rotating bed means 2, so that each first spray hole 432 can directly guide the first fluid 9 from the first injection pipe 3 to the inner peripheral surface 222 of the first filler layer.

[0021] In another variation of the first embodiment, the first spray ring 4 includes a first stopper 44 extending from the inner surface of the first annular peripheral wall 41 in the radial direction of the rotary shaft 1 away from the inner peripheral surface 222 of the first filler layer. The first stopper 44 has a first cylindrical hollow space 441, and the outer surface of the first annular peripheral wall 41 has a plurality of first vent holes 45 communicating with the first cylindrical hollow space 441. It is possible to form only one first stopper 44 and one first vent hole 45, and the number of first vent holes 45 can be appropriately determined as needed. Each first vent hole 45 is used to guide gas from the first filler layer 22 into the first spray ring 4 (the guide direction is indicated by the open triangular arrow B3 in FIG. 3). After the gas to be treated passes through the first filler layer 22 and comes into contact with the first fluid 9 passing through the first filler layer 22, and suspended particulate matter or water-soluble gaseous pollutants are removed, the gas to be treated is discharged into the internal space 43 through each first ventilation hole 45, without mutual interference or clogging with each first diffusion hole 432.

[0022] FIG. 4 shows a second embodiment of the supergravity device 100 of the present invention. Like the first embodiment, this supergravity device 100 includes a rotating shaft 1, a rotating bed means 2, and a first injection pipe 3. The second embodiment differs from the first embodiment in that the supergravity device 100 shown in FIG. 4 is suitable for removing suspended particulate matter or water-soluble gaseous pollutants contained in a gas to be treated (not shown) using a mixture of a first fluid 9 and a second fluid 91 (usually a liquid, but can also be a gas). The second fluid 91 has a different composition from the first fluid 9. The first spray ring and the first bottom-side injection ports of the first injection pipe 3 can be omitted, and the supergravity device 100 includes a second injection pipe 5 and a second spray ring 6. The rotating bed means 2 further includes a second filler layer 24 disposed on the bottom wall 21 and allowing fluid to pass through.

[0023] Specifically, the first injection pipe 3 is adjacent to the rotating bed means 2 and has a plurality of side injection ports 332 formed in the side wall 32. Each side injection port 332 is used to inject (spray) a first fluid 9 from the outside onto the first filler layer inner surface 222 of the first filler layer 22. The second injection pipe 5 is formed in a tubular shape extending in the axial direction of the rotating shaft 1 and has a second bottom plate 51 facing the bottom side. A second guide passage 52 is defined inside the second injection pipe 5 and is used to guide a second fluid 91 from the outside. The second guide passage 52 has a plurality of second bottom-side injection ports 521 formed in the second bottom plate 51. Each second bottom-side injection port 521 is used to inject the second fluid 91 in the second guide passage 52 downward into the second spray ring 6, but it is also possible to form only one second bottom-side injection port 521 and design it appropriately as needed. The second filler layer 24 is formed in an annular shape and is spaced apart from the first filler layer 22 so as to surround the first filler layer 22 on the outside. When the rotating bed means 2 is driven by the rotary shaft 1 to rotate around the rotary shaft 1 and generate a supergravity field, the mixed fluid of the first fluid 9 and the second fluid 91 passes through the second filler layer 24 in a direction away from the first filler layer 22, and the gas to be treated passes through the second filler layer 24 in a direction approaching the first filler layer 22.At this time, the gas to be treated passes through the second filler layer 24 and comes into contact with the mixed fluid of the first fluid 9 and the second fluid 91, thereby removing suspended particulate matter or water-soluble gaseous pollutants contained in the gas to be treated.

[0024] The second spray ring 6 has a second annular peripheral wall 61 that is spaced from the first filler layer outer peripheral surface 223 in the radial direction of the rotating shaft 1 and is disposed between the first filler layer 22 and the second filler layer 24 so as to extend from the bottom wall 21 toward the top side along the axial direction of the rotating shaft 1, and a second annular top wall 62 that extends radially from the top edge of the second annular peripheral wall 61 toward the first filler layer inner peripheral surface 222. The second annular top wall 62 faces the first filler layer outer peripheral surface 223 with a gap therebetween. A spray space 63 that opens toward the top side is defined by the bottom wall 21, the second annular peripheral wall 61, the second annular top wall 62, and the first filler layer outer peripheral surface 223. The second fluid 91 injected from the second bottom-side injection port 521 enters the dispersion space 63, and the dispersion space 63 has second dispersion holes 631 penetrating from the inner surface to the outer surface of the second annular peripheral wall 61. Each second dispersion hole 631 is used to inject a mixed fluid of the first fluid 9 and the second fluid 91 into the second filler layer 24 (see the injection direction indicated by the black triangular arrow A6 in FIG. 4 ) and pass the mixed fluid through the second filler layer 24.

[0025] During the operation of the supergravity device 100, the first injection pipe 3 injects the first fluid 9 from the outside onto the inner peripheral surface 222 of the first filler layer, and the second injection pipe 5 injects the second fluid 91 from the outside into the spraying space 63. Then, the rotary shaft 1 rotates under control to rotate the rotary bed means 2, and the second spray ring 6 rotates around the rotary shaft 1. The first fluid 9 from the outside guided by the first injection pipe 3 is injected onto the inner peripheral surface 222 of the first filler layer through each side injection port 332, and is thrown onto the second annular peripheral wall 61 through the first filler layer 22. The second fluid 91 from the outside guided by the second injection pipe 5 is injected into each second bottom side injection port 332. The second fluid 91 from each second bottom-side injection port 521 is injected into the spray space 63 spray, and the mixed fluid obtained by mixing the second fluid 91 from each second bottom-side injection port 521 and the first fluid 9 that has passed through the first filler layer 22 is injected into the second filler layer 24 through each second spray hole 631.The first fluid 9 released from the first filler layer 22 is guided by the inner surface of the second annular peripheral wall 61 to mix with the second fluid 91, and then guided again by each second spray hole 631 to be injected uniformly onto the inner surface of the second filler layer 24.As a result, the range in which the mixed fluid of the first fluid 9 and the second fluid 91 is injected becomes more uniform in the axial direction of the inner peripheral surface of the second filler layer 24.

[0026] In this second embodiment, the second spray ring 6 is formed with a plurality of second stoppers 64 that extend from the inner surface of the second annular peripheral wall 61 toward the outer peripheral surface 223 of the first filler layer along the radial direction of the rotary shaft 1 and have second columnar hollow spaces 641. The second annular peripheral wall 61 has a plurality of second vent holes 65 formed in the outer surface of the second annular peripheral wall 61 so as to communicate with each of the second columnar hollow spaces 641, but it is also possible to form only one each of the second stoppers 64 and second vent holes 65, and the number can be appropriately designed as needed. Each second vent hole 65 is used to guide gas from the second filler layer 24 to the first filler layer 22. In the treatment of waste gas, when the gas to be treated passes through the second filler layer 24, it comes into contact with a mixed fluid of the first fluid 9 and the second fluid 91 passing through the second filler layer 24, thereby removing any suspended particulate matter or water-soluble gaseous pollutants contained in the gas to be treated.The gas to be treated then passes through each second vent 65 and enters the first filler layer 22, where it again comes into contact with the first fluid 9 passing through the first filler layer 22, thereby again removing any suspended particulate matter or water-soluble gaseous pollutants contained in the gas to be treated, thereby improving the treatment efficiency of the exhaust gas.

[0027] A variation of the second embodiment is shown in Figure 5, and the hypergravity device 100 of this variation of the second embodiment differs from the embodiment shown in Figure 4 in that it further includes the first spray ring 4 shown in Figure 1. In this variation, the height (toward the top side) of the first spray ring 4 is set to a height adjacent to the bottom of the first injection pipe 3, but this configuration is not limited to this. In addition, in this variation, the first injection pipe 3 has a plurality of first bottom-side injection ports 331 formed in the first bottom plate 31.

[0028] During the operation of the supergravity device 100, the first bottom-side injection ports 331 of the first injection pipes 3 inject the first fluid 9 from the outside into the first spray ring 4, and the second injection pipes 5 inject the second fluid 91 from the outside into the spray space 63. When the rotary shaft 1 rotates under control to rotate the rotary bed means 2, and the first spray ring 4 and the second spray ring 6 rotate around the rotary shaft 1, the first fluid 9 from the outside guided by the first spray ring 4 is injected through each of the first spray holes 432 onto the inner peripheral surface 222 of the first filler layer, and also through the first filler layer 22, The second fluid 91 from the outside is thrown onto the annular peripheral wall 61 and guided by the second injection pipe 5, and is injected into the spray space 63 via each second bottom-side injection port 521. The second fluid 91 from each second bottom-side injection port 521 is mixed with the first fluid 9 that has passed through the first filler layer 22 to form a mixed fluid, which is injected into the second filler layer 24 via each second spray hole 631. This makes the range in which the mixed fluid of the first fluid 9 and the second fluid 91 is injected more uniformly in the axial direction between the inner surface 222 of the first filler layer and the inner surface of the second filler layer 24, thereby achieving the effect of improving mass transfer efficiency.

[0029] To summarize the above, in the supergravity device of the present invention, the first fluid 9 from the first injection pipe 3 is injected (sprayed) radially onto the inner surface 222 of the first filler layer through the first spray hole 432 formed in the first spray ring 4, thereby further expanding the range in the axial direction of the rotating shaft 1 over which the first filler layer inner surface 222 is injected by the first fluid 9. As a result, the first fluid 9 that has passed through the first filler layer 22 becomes more uniform, thereby achieving the effect of improving mass transfer efficiency. Furthermore, by injecting the mixed fluid of the first fluid 9 and the second fluid 91 radially through the second spray holes 631 of the second spray ring 6 onto the inner circumferential surface of the second filler layer 24, the range of injection of the mixed fluid of the first fluid 9 and the second fluid 91 in the axial direction of the inner circumferential surface of the second filler layer 24 is further expanded, so that the mixed fluid passing through the second filler layer 24 becomes more uniform, improving mass transfer efficiency and certainly achieving the object of the present invention. Note that the direction extending from the bottom side to the top side of the rotation shaft 1 of this supergravity device is not limited to the vertical direction, and by configuring this direction extending from the bottom side to the top side to be horizontal, it is also possible to align the direction of the centrifugal force generated by the supergravity device with the direction of gravity (not shown).
