Background
In recent years, more serious air pollution events occur nationwide, which leads people to pay more and more attention to air quality, and meanwhile, various levels of governments and environmental protection departments develop a plurality of special policies aiming at the phenomenon, so that the waste gas treatment industry is developed vigorously. In the VOCs (volatile organic compounds) waste gas treatment industry, the activated carbon adsorption method with low technical content and high operation cost is adopted in the early stage and is developed slowly. After environmental protection standards are raised in various places, VOCs are required to be treated by enterprises which discharge VOCs but do not treat or do not reach the standard after treatment.
The existing VOCs waste gas treatment technology mainly comprises an adsorption method (spraying and activated carbon adsorption), a recovery method (condensation and spraying) and a direct removal method (low-temperature plasma, photocatalytic oxidation and concentrated combustion). Combustion methods, mainly including concentrated combustion, thermal combustion and catalytic combustion; the concentration combustion method is to utilize most of the components of the organic waste gas to be combustible, further concentrate the high-concentration VOCs and increase the concentrationA direct combustion method; the thermal combustion is a method of mixing and then combusting fuels such as natural gas and the like with VOCs; catalytic combustion is a process for completely oxidizing VOCs at a relatively low temperature (250 ℃ to 450 ℃) by the action of a catalyst. An absorption (recovery) method, which mainly comprises solvent absorption, electrostatic adsorption and condensation recovery; the solvent absorption method utilizes the principle of similar intermiscibility, and VOCs are separated and reused after being absorbed by an organic solvent; condensing and recycling different components of VOCs with different boiling points, and cooling and recycling certain components; the electrostatic adsorption is mainly used for treating oily waste gas, and the electrostatic field is utilized to charge oil drops and then the charged oil drops are adsorbed and recovered. The adsorption method mainly adopts activated carbon adsorption, and the activated carbon mainly adsorbs particles or gas molecules through micropore adsorption and surface unbalanced van der waals force and chemical bond force, so that the aim of removing VOCs is fulfilled. Decomposition methods, mainly including photocatalysis, infrared absorption particle technology and low temperature plasma method; the photocatalysis is based on the principle that the photocatalyst has strong oxidizability under the irradiation of ultraviolet light, and VOCs gas molecules adsorbed on the surface are oxidized and decomposed; low temperature plasma method utilizes energetic particles and radicals in the plasma to decompose VOCs into CO2And water. The traditional method has the problems of low removal rate (such as spraying, low-temperature plasma and activated carbon adsorption) of the waste gas difficult to treat, high operation cost (such as activated carbon adsorption, concentrated combustion and photocatalytic oxidation) and the like. For example, activated carbon adsorption, on one hand, the activated carbon adsorption equipment of many manufacturers is in long-term shutdown due to high operation cost and is only used during environmental protection inspection; on the other hand, activated carbon need handle according to dangerous chemicals after using, practicality greatly reduced, as traditional low temperature plasma processing technology again, it adopts power frequency high voltage power supply or direct current high voltage power supply, form such as through corona discharge gets rid of VOCs, however particle can't break some chemical bonds of major bond energy in its plasma that produces for it is underground to some VOCs clearance, is beaten into the micromolecule to the macromolecule even, and benzene class organic matter is handled back VOCs concentration and is 1-2 times than before handling on the contrary.
Therefore, it is an urgent technical problem to be solved by those skilled in the art to provide an exhaust gas treatment technology for removing VOCs with high removal rate, high efficiency, low operation cost, simple process and wide applicability.
