Description

The invention relates to techniques for drying dispersed materials in a fluidized bed and can be used in aniline-colorful, food, pharmaceutical, microbiological, food, chemical and other industries.

The closest technical solution to the claimed object is a dryer for drying solutions, suspensions and pastes in a fluidized bed by.with. USSR No. 583358, F26В 17 / 10.1976, containing a chamber with a gas distribution grid, on which a layer of inert bodies is placed, a gas supply box for supplying the main part of the fresh coolant, and nozzles placed in a layer of inert bodies with the possibility of rotation around the axis of the chamber (prototype).

A disadvantage of the known installations is that when supplying the source material (solution, suspension) through a fixed nozzle, it is not possible to achieve uniform irrigation of the entire layer of inert bodies, as a result of which sticking of individual sections of the layer occurs, which causes uneven fluidization and a decrease in the productivity of the installations.

EFFECT: increased installation productivity and reduced sticking of the dried material to inert bodies.

This is achieved by the fact that in the installation for drying solutions in a fluidized bed of inert bodies, containing a chamber with a gas distribution grid, on which a layer of inert bodies, a gas supply duct for supplying the main part of the fresh coolant, and nozzles placed in a layer of inert bodies with the possibility of rotation around the axis of the chamber, the nozzles are placed on a vertical hollow drive shaft by means of a square and tubes with nozzles at the ends located in horizontal and vertical planes, and they can be installed with different steps in both vertical and horizontal directions, depending on the drying object, and in the upper part of the chamber, for example, at the place of transition of the cylindrical part to the conical part, a gas distribution grill is fixed, in the center of which there is a bearing assembly serving as the lower support of the hollow at the same time, at least one secondary coolant pipe with a temperature higher than that of the main part of the fresh coolant is tangentially attached to the conical part of the chamber.

Figure 1 shows the installation in longitudinal section; figure 2 - presents a diagram of the tangential inlet of the secondary coolant; figure 3-5 - embodiments of the inert nozzle (tel).

The installation comprises a cylinder-conical chamber 1, equipped in the lower part with a gas distribution grill 2, under which a gas supply box 3 with a pipe 4 is located for supplying fresh coolant. In the upper part of the chamber 1, for example, at the place of transition of the cylindrical part to the conical part, a gas distribution grill 9 is fixed, in the center of which there is a bearing assembly 19, which serves as the lower support of the hollow drive shaft 8. On top of the chamber 1 is closed by a cover 5, which has a pipe 6 for waste heat carrier . The chamber space between the gas distribution grids 2 and 9 is filled with inert bodies 7.

A hollow drive shaft 8 is placed along the installation axis, which is connected to the feed chamber 15 by means of a stuffing box 14. In the upper part, the shaft 8 rotates in the bearing assembly 16 and is connected to a variable speed drive (not shown in the drawings) through a pair of bevel gears 17 and 18.

After the shaft 8 leaves the bearing assembly 19, which serves as its lower support, it is connected to a tee consisting of tubes 10, 11 and 12 with nozzles at the ends located in horizontal, vertical and inclined planes. Nozzles can be installed with different steps in both vertical and horizontal directions, depending on the drying object.

Figure 2 presents a diagram of the tangential inlet of the secondary coolant.

At least one nozzle 20 of the secondary coolant with a temperature higher than that of the main part of the fresh coolant is tangentially attached to the conical part of the chamber 1.

The inert nozzle (Figs. 3-5) can be made in the form of hollow balls, on a spherical surface of which a helical groove is cut in the form of a helical line formed on a spherical surface and having in cross section perpendicular to the helical line, a profile such as a circle, polygon, “saddles” Berl "or saddles" Italloks "; or in the form of cylindrical rings, on the side surface of which a helical groove is cut, or the nozzle is made in the form of a helix formed on a cylindrical surface and having in cross section perpendicular to the helical line, a profile such as a circle, polygon, Berl saddle or Itallox saddle ; either in the form of toroidal rings, or in the form of toroidal rings having a profile such as a circle, a polygon, a Berl saddle, or an Itallox saddle. Inert bodies can be made of elastic polymeric materials, composite materials and obtained by molding or sintering.

Installation works as follows.

The chamber 1 is filled with inert bodies 7 between the gas distribution grids 2 and 9. Through the pipe 4, the main part of the fresh coolant is fed into the gas supply box 3, from where the latter passes through the gas distribution grid 2 into the chamber 1 and creates a fluidized bed of inert bodies 7, the vector of which is directed vertically. The source material from the chamber 15 through the hollow shaft 8 is fed through the tubes 10, 11 and 12 to the nozzles for spraying into a layer of inert bodies. Due to the rotation of the shaft 8, uniform irrigation of the entire layer occurs. A secondary coolant with a temperature higher than that of the main part of the fresh coolant is fed tangentially to the chamber 1 through the nozzles 13 and 20 (or only through one of them). The secondary coolant creates a zone of a rotating ring in the layer of inert bodies with a vector directed tangentially to chamber 1. Due to the high temperature and high relative velocity of the coolant and inert bodies, the process of heat and mass transfer in this zone is very intense, which leads to almost instant drying of the film source material on the surface of inert bodies 7. In the remaining mass of the layer at this time, the material is dried and the dried material is separated from inert bodies due to their collisions due to the intersection projectors direction of the fluidized bed from the main portion of fresh coolant and the secondary coolant.

The proposed installation provides a more complete irrigation of a layer of inert bodies, as well as its mixing. In addition, the supply of an additional secondary coolant creates a zone of a rotating ring, which not only prevents the layer from sticking at the place of irrigation with the source material, but also contributes to a more efficient flow of heat and mass transfer in this zone. All this leads to an increase in the specific productivity of the installation, and also allows to increase the hydrodynamic stability of the fluidized bed regime.
