Automated method of controlling and managing process for preparing sugar syrup mixture for crystallisation by cooling Automated method of controlling and managing process for preparing sugar syrup mixture for crystallisation by cooling / 2342438
Proposed automated method of controlling and managing the process of preparing sugar syrup mixture for crystallisation by cooling makes provisions for regulating the volumetric discharge of water entering the mixer and the level of sugar syrup in it. Regulating the level of the sugar syrup in the vertical mould is achieved by acting on the adjustable-frequency electric drive of the sugar syrup pump. Periodically using the lab the density of the ready sugar syrup is controlled at the exit from the mixer. The active electrical power which is used in the electric motor of the sugar syrup pump, the temperature and pressure differential of the sugar syrup mixture, coming from the mixer and water at the entrance of the mixer are all measured. The water-mass density is calculated by its temperature and the density of the sugar syrup mixture by its pressure differential. Afterwards the volume flow rate is worked out by the measured volume flow rate of water, by the estimated value of the density of water and sugar syrup mixture and by the density of ready sugar syrup measured in the laboratory. The dependency ratio of the active electric power from the volume rate of flow of the sugar syrup mixture and the differential in its pressure N=α1Q3УΔPy2QyΔPy , where N - active electric power; QY - volume rate of flow of sugar syrup mixture entering the mixer; ΔPY - pressure differential of the sugar syrup mixture; α1, α2 - coefficients. The obtained plot is used for future calculations of volume rate of flow of sugar syrup mixture only with measured values of active electric power and pressure differential of the sugar syrup mixture. The current task of the regulator of the volumetric water discharge is determined on the basis of measured values of this output, estimated values of the density of sugar syrup mixture, water and volume rate of flow of the sugar syrup mixture, the determined value of density of ready sugar syrup mixture and the task of the regulator calculated in the previous control step. The solid content of the original sugar syrup mixture is controlled - by its temperature and density in the ready sugar syrup mixture. This invention makes it possible to reduce the loss of sugar from molasses due to a more qualitative stabilisation of the density of molasses on its exit from the mixer.

The invention relates to techniques for managing the process of obtaining potassium chloride gallerycheck method at the stage of cooling of the hot liquor and crystallization from him the target product.

A known method of controlling the process of obtaining potassium chloride, stabilizing the content of potassium chloride in the product by changing the flow rate of weak solution of salts in the clay slurry and hot saturated lye - see speaker of the USSR №463633, CL C01D 3/04, publ. 1973.

The method has a high complexity, since its implementation is impossible without the implementation of a complete chemical analysis of the input streams to determine the chemical composition of the system. Analytical control is a lengthy process, as it involves sampling in preparation for the analysis and determination of components in the system KCl-NaCl-H2O in the presence of MgCl2and other impurities. The results of the analysis comes to the production of potassium chloride with a delay of 3-4 hours, and in terms of large-scale production (for example, BY Uralkali flows entering the crystallization liquor reaches 1500 m3/h) they have a significant impact on the progress of the process does not have. Therefore, the full chemical analysis used statistical material.

In practice, to guarantee the quality of kristalliset chloride is th potassium vacuum crystallization setting serves the increased consumption of water. In a small content of chlorides of magnesium and calcium in the ore (less than 0.5%) this leads to a significant loss of potassium chloride by removing excess liquor from the process of obtaining a concentrate.

A known method of controlling the process of obtaining potassium chloride by changing the costs of input streams - see prototype speakers of the USSR №948884, CL C01D 3/04, G05D 27/00, publ. 07.08.82. Bull. No. 20.

The method provides for the stabilization of the content of potassium chloride in the product by controlling the flow of water coming in on the crystallization liquor depending on the temperature of the liquor, the concentration of potassium chloride, water consumption for flushing crystallization apparatus, flow and temperature of the circulating liquor. The proposed method also regulate the water flow in the apparatus for separation of the liquor from kristalliset depending on the specific content of potassium chloride in the product and consumption of the circulating liquor.

The known method is complex, as it does not take into account the actual content in the hot liquor entering the vacuum crystallization unit (ADC) of sodium chloride. With the shortage of water, the flow of which is regulated by the quality of the product, is the crystallization of the cooled liquor of sodium chloride and deterioration in the quality of kristalliset. Therefore, there is a method to include trivet water supply in the apparatus of the Department of liquor from kristalliset. This technique does not always produce a positive result, as the sodium chloride crystals grow crystals of potassium chloride and are not washed out by washing. Increased consumption of water at the UWC entails unbalance in the water, excessive liquor, and loss of useful component. The method also involves the use of methods of analytical control.

The task of the invention is to simplify the process of operational management by automating the flow of water depending on the composition and flow rate of the liquor entering the vacuum crystallization installation.

This objective is achieved in that, in contrast to the known method, additionally measure the density and consumption of liquor, temperature, density and the content of potassium chloride, by calculation, determine the content of the liquor to sodium chloride and the obtained parameters calculate the flow rate of water supplied to the crystallization, according to the following dependence and the calculated value serves as the task management system water flow:

The method consists in the following. In contrast to the known method, the proposed method additionally measure the density and consumption of liquor; temperature, density, and concentration of potassium chloride calculated to define the content of the liquor to sodium chloride and the obtained parameters determine the water flow on the crystallization based on:

The quality management of the target product are addressed mainly at the stage of crystallization of potassium chloride from a saturated hot clarified liquor from the stage of dissolution for the installation of vacuum crystallization (ICD). Analysis of data on the chemical composition of liquid phases shows that the NaCl content in the saturated liquor at the entrance to the internals exceeds the saturation concentration, i.e. the solution contains a solid phase sodium chloride and its content may reach 16 kg per cubic meter of solution. The presence of sodium chloride in the clarified liquor is explained by the removal from the stage clarification of crystalline NaCl, crystallising from a saturated solution from the stage of clarification due to its cooling at 1-2°C and the partial evaporation of the water in the clarifiers John.

NaCl content in a saturated solution is one of the most important factors determining the flow of water in the process. With increased content NaC water should be made directly to the receiving tank internals in number, providing for the dissolution of sodium chloride. If the water flow is insufficient, the complete dissolution of the salt slurry does not occur, and NaCl, remaining in the solid phase, then covered with crystallized KCl. Water flow through the stages internals this leads to the fact that the mother solution becomes unsaturated in NaCl, and crystallized contains NaCl, resulting in impairment of the quality of the final product. It should be noted that to avoid production of defective products process leading to the issue, for example, 96%of the product instead of 95%, resulting in lower product yield and increase consumption rates of ore and excessive liquor, i.e. leads to the reduction of technical and economic indicators of production. At existing gallerycheck factories consumption of water at the UWC adjust to suit the load, the content of potassium chloride in the liquor and density. Quantitative patterns of water flow at the UWC depending on the input variables of the process is not formalized and operational process control vacuum crystallization are ignored, and the process is carried out according to the results of analytical control.

In the proposed method, in contrast to known methods, the management process of obtaining potassium chloride is produced by a change of the input stream in the s by 1 and 2.

When developing a mathematical model stage crystallization of potassium chloride has been shown that one of the significant factors that must be considered in the management process, is the mass fraction of NaCl in the feed to the crystallization liquor. Direct measurement of mass fraction of NaCl using the instrumentation is not possible. Therefore, the implemented calculation method for the determination of NaCl on the basis of the automatically measured parameters: the mass fraction of KCl, density and temperature of the liquor on the basis of use developed in VNIIG "Method of coefficient - see method of calculation of the density of the complex salt systems. Proceedings of VNIIG, vol. No. 36, Goskomizdat, 1959. This method allows to determine the empirical coefficients A.

Applying a known method three-factor experiment (see, for example, Planning of experiment in chemistry and chemical technology". The Sautin S.N. Ed. "Chemistry", L., 1975) when processing the resulting technological calculations of data received basic equation relating the density of the liquor with its composition and temperature:

Transforming this equation, we obtain the dependence (2) the mass fraction of NaCl in the feed to the crystallization liquor.

Dependence for water consumption represents a nonlinear equation describing the optimal the second flow value for the permissible ranges of values of the independent variables of the crystallization process.

As independent variables taken:

CKCl s-K- mass fraction of KCl in hot clarified saturated liquor;

CNaCl Sch-- mass fraction of NaCl in the clarified saturated liquor;

Qshch-- consumption of liquor supplied to the crystallization, t/h;

Fwater- water consumption for technological needs, t/h

Water consumption (Fwaterfor each manufacturer of potassium chloride by the method of crystallization from hot clarified liquor has its value and is determined by the type of installation, vacuum crystallization. For Multihull vacuum crystallization install without control the crystal growth water consumption (Fwateris fixed by the regulation value, which is usually 5-10% of the water flow on crystallization (Qwater). This water is consumed for technological needs - washing piping, sight glasses, etc. Selection of water for technical needs (Fwater) after regulation of its flow by the dependence (1), while the remaining water after selection for technical needs, usually served in zapotocny glass internals.

When using multiple installation with adjustable vacuum crystallization water consumption consists of the consumption for technological needs, as well as the consumption of water supplied in the external account is s each corps RWCU for dissolution of small classes KCl. This water is firmly fixed, and introduced into the dependence (1) in the form of a constant value of the coefficient (Fwater).

On some installations adjustable vacuum crystallization (RWCU) served in zapotocny glass heated solution cyclone dust. Water consumption for the dissolution of the cyclone dust also measured and taken into account in the factor Fwater.

When selecting production of a suspension of the intermediate chassis RWCU with subsequent separation and washing of kristalliset liquor and prambody return in case RUKU. Water consumption for washing kristalliset measured and accounted for in the coefficient Fwater.

Kinetic regularities of the process of crystallization of KCl taking into account the residence time of the solid phase on the hull internals, the rate of formation and growth of crystals, etc. are incorporated in the projects crystallization plants. Therefore, used to control stage vacuum crystallization static model does not take into account the influence of the above kinetic factors. The production of a given product requires changing technological mode of conducting the process of crystallization by increasing the water flow in accordance with the water balance, therefore, according to different numerical values of the coefficients for each of the obtained product: 96,5 and 98% KCl or other.

The total quantity and the creation of material balance calculations in the planning matrix was 2 5or 32. Material balances that determine the water flow rate was calculated according to standard techniques (see, for example, "Technology of potash fertilizers". Kashkarov OD, Sokolov, I., Ed. "Chemistry", L., 1978) and is not contained in the description of the present invention because of grimscote and widely known methods of calculation.

Material balances of the processes of crystallization of KCl for one type of product to 96.5 or 98% KCl - taking into account the zero error of the instrument, with which they control the value of process parameters, carried out in the traditional way using charts solubility of salts in the system KCl-NaCl-H2O in the presence of MgCl2because this system does not form supersaturated solutions.

Next performed similar calculations, taking into account the lower and upper levels of the maximum permissible error of the instrument, did an assessment of the technological reproducibility of the calculations, the calculation of the regression coefficients, assess their significance and adequacy of the regression equations in accordance with the method of mathematical planning ("Planning experiments in chemistry and chemical technology".

Given the levels of factors and ranges of their variation fair for processing of sylvinite ores at the operating sylvinite factories, such as OJSC "Silvinit", with selected technological parameters, covering all possible changes of the technological process of crystallization of potassium chloride from clarified seloka.

Thus, the task of simplifying the management process of crystallization of potassium chloride from the clear saturated liquor on internals due to the replacement of long-term analytical control automatic analyzer potassium and low-inertia automatic sensors of process parameters - temperature, flow, and density using the results of measurement for automatic control of water flow by primenenie PC in the supervisor mode.

The method is as follows. Hot clarified rich liquor with temperature 95,5±1,0 directed to the vacuum crystallization installation, thus determine the temperature of the liquor through a thermal Converter with unified output signal - for example, TSMU-055; density - for example, using a primary Converter MFS2000 and signal Converter MFS081, and its consumption-for example, by the induction flow meter type SORA HEH.

Mass fraction of potassium is determined by measuring potassium - for example, the company "Bertold" LB 377-62.

The signals from the transducers are received at the controller and the PC, where it calculates the optimal setting of water flow. The optimal value of the job enters the control loop water flow at the UWC.

In the case of using water for technological needs - for example, on the dissolution of the cyclone dust with subsequent supply of KCl solution at the UWC in conjunction with water or along the contours of RUKU, and when the supply of water for technical needs, water for these purposes is fixed and is taken after the water meter at the UWC.

Examples of the method

Example 1:

1. The readings for determining the mass fraction of NaCl have the values:

0,203 - mass fraction of KCl in the clarified liquor;

1,244 - density of liquor, g/cm3;

The calculation of the mass fraction of NaCl in the solvent Selo the e:

CNaCl R. R-R= -1,1188+ρshch./0,8333-0,8·CKCl/0,8333,

CNaCl R. R-R= 0,1792

Mass fraction of NaCl used in the calculation of water flow.

2. The performance of devices for determining the flow rate of water have values:

1500 - consumption of liquor, t/h;

35 - water consumption for technical needs, t/h

Calculation of water flow rate: Qwater= 6,166+0,005·0,203-0,6934·1500-35,9833·0,1792+4,3372·1500·0,1792-35

Qwater= 90,459 t/h

The calculated values of water flow serves as a job management system water meter. A survey of automatic devices is performed with an interval of 10 seconds

Management was carried out of the calculate of potassium chloride with KCl content of 96.5%. Actually received purged with KCl content 96,7%.

Example 2:

The performance of devices for determining the flow of water to obtain 98% KCl.

0,203 - mass fraction of KCl in the liquor entering internals;

1500 - consumption of liquor, t/h;

35 - water consumption for technical and technological needs (Fwater), which is the sum of the consumption of water on the dissolution of the cyclone dust - 15 t/h water consumption for flushing kristalliset 5 t/h water flow in the external circuit - 15 t/h

Calculation of water flow from the condition that CNaCl Sch-= 0,1792 - see example 1.

Qwater= 0,031+0,005·0,203-0,6713·1500-0,1667·0,1792+4,24·1500·0,1792-35;

Qwater= 97,765 t/h

Management conducted based receiving chloride feces what I KCl content 98,0%. Actually received purged with KCl content of 98.2%.

The process control method of obtaining potassium chloride by changing the input flow of water, including adjustment of the flow rate of water coming in on the crystallization liquor depending on the concentration of potassium chloride, water consumption for flushing crystallization apparatus and determining the temperature of the liquor, characterized in that it further measure the density and consumption of liquor, temperature, density, and concentration of potassium chloride by calculation, determine the content of the liquor of sodium chloride, and the obtained parameters calculate the flow rate of water supplied to the crystallization, according to the following dependence, and the calculated value serves as the task management system water flow:
