A kind of renovation process of powdered activated carbon
Technical field
The present invention relates to a kind of Regenevating Waste Activated Carbon technology, be specifically related to a kind of renovation process of powdered activated carbon.
Background technology
Caffeine belongs to xanthine alkaloid compound, is a kind of central nervous excitation agent, because the medicine of main component is used for the treatment of the symptom such as neurasthenia and spirit inhibition, headache, respond well with coffee, on market, is widely used now.In caffeine production process, adopt the dimethyl urea synthetic route that urea, monomethyl amine and monoxone are base stock.In production process, adopt active carbon to carry out decolorizing and refining to the synthetic crude product caffeine aqueous solution, in removing pigment and other impurity, also adsorbed a large amount of caffeines, produced thus the waste active carbon of year caffeine.The every annual emissions of this waste active carbon reaches 2000 tons, wherein contains 20% caffeine.
Because it dissolves in chloroform, former process using be chloroform extraction reclaim caffeine, in processing procedure, there is the problems such as medicament loss is large, and reagent toxicity is strong; And the active carbon that removes caffeine adopts burning method to process at present, not only cause the wasting of resources of high added value caffeine and active carbon, and burn toxic and harmfuls such as producing a large amount of CO2 and nitrogen oxide, oxysulfide, pollute environment.Therefore, develop and a kind ofly reclaim caffeine and make the method and technology of regenerating active carbon significant from carrying caffeine active carbon.
At present, the regenerating active carbon technique of industrial use mainly contains following several: chemical method, bio-regeneration method, wet oxidation process, electrolytic oxidation and the thermal regeneration method of medicament wash-out.In heating process, decompose the temperature difference of desorption according to the organic matter adsorbing in active carbon, thermal regeneration method can be divided into low-temperature heat regeneration and high-temperature heating regeneration, but effect is not very good.
Summary of the invention
The present invention overcomes the deficiencies in the prior art, a kind of method of utilizing method of reproduction to process effective decolorizer regeneration of load caffeine in the exquisite process of caffeine has been proposed, two sections of gradient-heated of described method exploitation reclaim caffeine and regenerating active carbon comprehensive resource technology continuously, have the advantages that production process is continuous, caffeine capturing efficiency is high, regenerating active carbon rate is high, regeneration and the resource of waste active carbon in effectively reclaiming caffeine, are also realized, the CO2 emission of having avoided waste active carbon burning to form.
Technical scheme of the present invention is: a kind of renovation process of powdered activated carbon, and described method continuously by one-level regenerating furnace, secondary regenerating furnace, spray column and condenser, through strict temperature control, realizes the regeneration of active carbon by waste active carbon, and concrete steps are:
1) in one-level regenerating furnace, temperature rises to more than 100 DEG C, when secondary regenerating furnace temperature rises to more than 400 DEG C, waste active carbon is added in one-level regenerating furnace continuously.
2) one-level regenerating furnace makes the water evaporation of absorption in carbon granule, and the lower boiling organic matter of part also evaporates thereupon simultaneously, and temperature maintains 100~130 DEG C, and this part water vapour reclaims after condenser.
3) active carbon after dehydration enters in secondary regenerating furnace, and secondary regenerating furnace passes into the nitrogen that linear velocity is 0.005~0.007m/s, and temperature maintains within the scope of 420~450 DEG C, after now caffeine distillation, taken out of by nitrogen, pigment decomposes simultaneously, and active carbon is regenerated.
4) for preventing that caffeine gas from condensing, caffeine pipeline is auxiliary has companion hot, enters after spray column, with the trapping of aqueous solution caffeine spray.
In above-mentioned steps 1, waste active carbon content of caffeine is 10~25%
In above-mentioned steps 2, the active carbon water content after dehydration is 5~8%.
In above-mentioned steps 3, regenerating active carbon rate is 90~93%.
In above-mentioned steps 4, aqueous solution caffeine concentration is 0~0.25g/mL, and temperature is 20~80 DEG C, and caffeine capture rate is 96~100%.
The present invention has following beneficial effect
Two sections of gradient-heated that the present invention relates to reclaim caffeine and regenerating active carbon comprehensive resource technology continuously, have the advantages that production process is continuous, caffeine capturing efficiency is high, regenerating active carbon rate is high, regeneration and the resource of waste active carbon in effectively reclaiming caffeine, are also realized, the CO2 emission of having avoided waste active carbon burning to form.
