Description

The porous ceramics filter that is used for suction car and two force feed cars
Technical field
The present invention relates generally to suction car and two force feed car filters, refers more particularly to a kind of porous ceramics filter that is used for suction car and two force feed cars.
Background technology
Porous ceramics be a kind of be aggregate with the refractory raw material, be equipped with process high temperature sinterings such as bond and the ceramic filter material processed, its inside configuration has the fine pores of the controllable bore diameter of being used in a large number to lead to.The characteristics such as it is high temperature resistant except that having, high pressure, acid and alkali resistance corrosion, it is even also to have an aperture, and therefore characteristics such as gas permeability height can extensively be used as filtration, separation, gas distribution and quieter material.
Porous ceramic film material physics and chemical property are stable.Can acid and alkali resistance corrosion, also can bear high temperature, high pressure, self clean state is good, can not cause secondary pollution, is a kind of functional material of environmental protection.
Porous ceramic film material as filtering material has narrower pore size distribution range and the higher porosity and specific area; Being filtered thing fully contacts with ceramic material; Polluters such as suspension wherein, colloid thing and microorganism are stopped on filter medium surface or inner; Filtering accuracy is high, and filter effect is good.The porous ceramics filtering material carries out backwash with gas or liquid after use after a while, can recover original filter capacity, and regenerability is good.
Porous ceramic film material is formed by process high-temperature calcinations such as metal oxide, silica, carborundum, and these materials itself have higher intensity, and the raw material granule boundary partly takes place to melt and bond in the calcination process, has higher-strength.
The suction car has Glass Fibre Bag, polyphenylene sulfide (PPS plastics), pin felt dedusting filter bag, terylene Nomex, polypropylene fibre Nomex, polyphenylene sulfide Nomex, aramid fiber Nomex, fragrant sulfone synthetic fibre Nomex, polytetrafluoroethylpunched punched felt, polyimides Nomex and the compound serial Nomex of high temperature etc. with two force feed cars filter bag commonly used now.And can be for a long time 200 oThe above fiber that uses of C has only pi fiber (P84), polytetrafluoroethylene (PTFE) and glass fibre, ceramic fibre, carbon fiber, high silica fiber and basalt fibre etc.
The air-transport system of existing pair of force feed car is to replace traditional mechanical transport material with the closed conveyance conduit.Air-transport system utilization negative pressure will expect that the loose unpacked material of end sucks the conveying batch can, through separation, dilatation sedimentation etc. material stayed in the major ingredient jar, and the air after the filtration is discharged, and guarantees that atmosphere is not contaminated.Then garage is sailed to exhaust end; Using malleation to enter material has in the sealing feed bin of deduster; This enclosed course of conveying has solved secondary pollution problem, but the air-transport system of common double force feed car takes place bonding when drawing high-temperature material easily.
Existing suction car is widely used in power plant, cement plant, steel plant and nonferrous metallurgy and absorbs the transportation dust, and they usually move under hot conditions.Stalk dust temperature is sometimes collected by steel plant can reach 600 oC.Conventional high temperature filter bag is short service life with two force feed cars at the suction car, and at high temperature easy and skeleton adhesion, makes that filter bag is difficult for changing.
