Engineering Contradiction Analysis
1Productivity
If traditional spray drying method is used to produce potassium fluoride, then fine powder product is obtained, but the production process becomes complicated and inefficient
Solution Approach 1:
The invention extracts and eliminates the complex spray drying step from the traditional production process. By using a solid fluorinating agent composition that can be directly prepared through simple mixing of solid reagents, the patent removes the need for spray drying equipment and process, thereby simplifying the production process and improving efficiency
Solution Approach 2:
The invention replaces the mechanical spray drying system with a simple solid-state mixing approach. Instead of using spray drying equipment to produce fine powder, the patent uses straightforward mixing of solid reagents (fluorine-containing compound and base) to create the fluorinating agent composition, eliminating complex mechanical processing
2Ease of operation
If solid fluorinating agent is used, then handleability is improved, but water adhesion occurs
Solution Approach 1:
The invention creates a composite fluorinating agent composition by combining a fluorine-containing compound with a base material. This composite structure allows the solid form to be maintained while reducing water adhesion properties, as the combination of materials creates a composition that is less prone to moisture absorption compared to pure ionic fluorides
Solution Approach 2:
The invention changes the physical and chemical parameters of the fluorinating agent by using a solid fluorine-containing compound combined with a base, rather than traditional ionic fluoride salts. This parameter change maintains the solid state for good handleability while modifying the surface properties to reduce water adhesion
