As shown in fig. 3, the continuous feeding apparatus 100 includes: the feeding device 10, the feeding bucket 20, the blowing bucket 30 and the feeding screw device 40.
Specifically, the charging bucket 20 is provided downstream of the charging device 10, and a first tank lock 51 for turning on and off the charging device 10 and the charging bucket 20 is provided between the charging device 10 and the charging bucket 20. The charging bucket 20 is provided with a sensor 23 for detecting the material capacity, and the sensor 23 is electrically connected with the first canning lock 51. Wherein, the inductor 23 is provided with a minimum material level and a maximum material level, and the inductor 23 is controlled by an electric pneumatic device. When the material on the charging bucket 20 is located at the minimum material level on the sensor 23, the sensor 23 feeds back insufficient material information to the electro-pneumatic device, the electro-pneumatic device sends a signal for unlocking the first canning lock 51, the first canning lock 51 conducts a communication pipeline between the charging device 10 and the charging bucket, and the material flows into the charging bucket from the charging device 10; when the material in the charging bucket 20 is at the maximum level on the sensor 23, the sensor 23 feeds back the information that the material is full to the electro-pneumatic device, and the first tank lock 51 cuts off the communication pipe between the charging device 10 and the charging bucket.

The feeding screw device 40 is arranged at the downstream of the blowing material tank 30, and the feeding screw device 40 is provided with a material outlet. Wherein, the inlet end of the blowing charging bucket 30 is connected with the outlet end of the charging bucket 20. When the material in the feed tank 20 has been filled, the second canister lock 52 may be opened, and the second canister lock 52 opens the communication between the feed tank 20 and the blowing tank 30, and the material begins to flow into the blowing tank 30. The material is uniformly blown in the blowing charging bucket 30 and then enters the feeding screw device 40. The material is further broken up into fine particles in the feed screw 40 and continuously sprayed from the material outlet into the oxidation reactor to remove the titanium oxide scabs on the inner wall of the oxidation reactor. Wherein, the blowing bucket 30 and the feeding screw device 40 are always conducted. In other words, the solid particles of the scab removing sand can be continuously conveyed into the oxidation reactor to ensure that the titanium chloride oxidation system normally and stably operates.
According to the continuous feeding device 100 for the scar removing sand adopted in the method for preparing titanium dioxide of the embodiment of the invention, the scar removing sand can be continuously sprayed into the oxidation reactor to remove titanium oxide scars on the inner wall of the oxidation reactor, so that the normal and stable operation of the titanium chloride oxidation system under the condition of uniform heating is ensured.

The introduced gas converts the scab removing sand solid particles into a mixture of the fluidized matters and the gas with the same high-low density, and the mixture is uniformly sprayed into the oxidation reactor under high pressure. Wherein the gas may be nitrogen. Of course, the invention is not limited thereto, and the gas may be other inert gases.
In some embodiments of the present invention, the continuous feeding device 100 may further include a gas driving device 11. The gas driving device 11 is provided on the charging device 10 to drive the charging device 10 to supply the material to the charging bucket 20. Alternatively, the scar removing sand is transported in big bags. Wherein the charging device 10 may be a hopper (not shown) with an open upper end. The inlet end of the charging hopper is larger than the outlet end, which is beneficial to the material flowing to the charging bucket 20. In this way, in the case where the first tank lock 51 and the gas driving device 11 are simultaneously turned on, the material in the hopper can flow toward the material charging bucket 20 to achieve the feeding of the material charging bucket 20.
It should be noted that the feeding device 10 may also be a feeding bin 22, the feeding bin 22 is a closed shell relative to the outside, and further, an exhaust valve 21 may be disposed on the feeding tank 20, so that when the pressure in the feeding tank 20 is relatively high, the exhaust valve 21 may be opened to reduce the pressure in the feeding tank 20, thereby facilitating the material to flow from the feeding bin 22 into the feeding tank 20.
According to further embodiments of the present invention, the continuous feed apparatus 100 may further comprise a fluidization cone 60. The fluidization cone 60 is disposed below the charging bucket 20 and the blowing bucket 30. The bottom of the fluidization cone 60 can be provided with an air inlet valve, and during the charging process of the charging bucket 20, the air inlet valve can be opened, and air enters the charging bucket 20 and surrounds the material particles, so that the fluidization of the material is preliminarily realized. The material after primary fluidization flows out from the outlet end of the feeding bucket 20 and enters the blowing bucket 30, and the fluidization cone 60 fluidizes the material again, so that a mixture of the fluidized substance and the gas with high-low density is obtained.
Further, the continuous feeding device 100 may further include: a pressure regulating device 31 and a flow control device 80. The pressure adjusting device 31 is provided in the blowing bucket 30 to adjust the pressure in the blowing bucket 30. For example, when the pressure in the blowing bucket 30 is large, the pressure in the blowing bucket 30 can be reduced by the pressure adjusting device 31 so that the pressure in the blowing bucket 30 is smaller than the pressure in the charging bucket 20, thereby facilitating the flow of the material into the blowing bucket 30 by the gravity.
The flow control device 80 is provided downstream of the supply port of the blowing bucket 30 and serves to adjust the flow rate of the material supplied to the feed screw 40. The inlet end of the flow control device 80 is connected with the blowing bucket 30, and the outlet end of the flow control device 80 is connected with the feeding screw device 40. Wherein, preset material flow rate values are preset in the flow control device 80, and the ranges of the preset values can be as follows: 20-40 kg/h. For example, when the reaction material in the oxidation reactor is small, the flow rate may be set to 20 kg/h; when the reaction material in the oxidation reactor is at an intermediate amount, the flow rate may be set to 30 kg/h; when the reaction material in the oxidation reactor is large, the flow rate may be set to 40 kg/h. Of course, the present invention is not limited thereto.
The following describes the operation of the continuous feeding apparatus 100 for scarred sand used in the method for preparing titanium dioxide according to the embodiment of the present invention, opening the gas driving means 11 and the first canning lock 51, the material flows toward the feeding tank 20 by the driving of the gas driving means 11 while the gas introduced from the fluidization cone 60 flows upward in the opposite direction to the flow of the material, thereby ensuring that the material is sufficiently fluidized, and closing the first canning lock 51 when the sensor 23 detects that the inside of the feeding tank 20 is full; then the second canning lock 52 and the fluidization cone 60 are opened, the material flows from the feeding bucket 20 to the blowing bucket 30, the material is further fluidized, and a mixture of a fluidized substance and gas after sufficient fluidization is obtained; the flow rate of the mixture entering the feeding screw device 40 is controlled by adjusting the flow control device 80, and the mixture is sprayed into the oxidation reactor from the outlet of the feeding screw device 40 after being mixed with nitrogen in the feeding screw device 40 to form larger air pressure, so that the titanium oxide scabs in the oxidation reactor are removed. When the sensor 23 detects that the material in the feed tank 20 is less than or equal to the minimum level, the charging process of the feed tank 20 can be restarted, and in the process, if the pressure in the feed tank 20 is greater than the pressure in the charging device 10, the pressure in the feed tank 20 can be reduced by opening the exhaust valve 21 on the feed tank 20. Of course, the above process is only the basic process of the continuous feeding device 100, and the adjustment can be made in the actual production process.
