Then, the blower 700, the exhaust fan 800 and the heating device 300 are sequentially started, hot air is supplied into the spray drying tower 200 through the air inlet 202 to preheat the spray drying tower 200, when the spray drying tower is heated to a preset temperature, the centrifugal atomizing disk 21 is started, the rotating speed of the centrifugal atomizing disk 21 is set, then the first discharge valve 13, the second discharge valve 22 and the screening device 400 are started, the feeding speed is controlled, at the moment, the doping liquid is sent to the centrifugal atomizing disk 21 at the top of the spray drying tower 200 through the doping liquid outlet 104 at the bottom of the stirring device 100 and is dispersed into extremely small atomized liquid drops, the surface area of the doping liquid is greatly increased after being atomized, the atomized liquid drops are fully contacted with the hot air, instant drying can be completed, the obtained powdery doped tungsten oxide falls to the bottom of the spray drying tower 200, is sent to the screening device 400 through the doped dried tungsten oxide outlet 204, screening is performed, abnormal coarse particles are removed, exhaust gas generated during the drying process is exhausted from the exhaust port 203 by the exhaust fan 800. The materials are discharged from the bottom of the stirring device 100 and directly enter the spray drying tower 200 for drying, so that doping-drying is integrally completed, the labor intensity is greatly reduced, and the production efficiency is improved. Finally, the sieved doped tungsten oxide powder is supplied to a reduction unit 500 to be reduced by contacting with hydrogen, and ultra-coarse tungsten powder with high purity and uniform particle size distribution can be obtained, so that the preparation of coarse-particle tungsten carbide with few microstructure defects is possible.
In a second aspect of the present invention, the present invention provides a method for preparing ultra-coarse tungsten powder using the above system. According to an embodiment of the invention, with reference to fig. 4, the method comprises:
s100, supplying tungsten oxide, water and a doping agent into the stirring device for stirring, supplying the obtained doping liquid into the spray drying tower, drying the doping liquid under the action of hot air supplied by the heating equipment, and screening the obtained doped dried tungsten oxide by the screening device
In this step, tungsten oxide, water, and a dopant are supplied into a stirring apparatus through a tungsten oxide inlet, a water inlet, and a dopant inlet, respectively, and are stirred by a stirring unit and a stirrer, and the mixture is uniformly mixed to obtain a dope. Then starting a blower, an exhaust fan and heating equipment in sequence, supplying hot air into the spray drying tower from an air inlet and preheating, starting the centrifugal atomizing disk when the temperature is heated to a preset temperature, setting the rotating speed of the centrifugal atomizing disk, then opening a first discharge valve, a second discharge valve and a screening device in sequence, controlling the feeding speed at the doped liquid inlet of the spray drying tower, supplying the doped liquid to a centrifugal atomizing disc at the top of the spray drying tower from a stirring device, and is dispersed into tiny fog-like liquid drops, the fog-like liquid drops are contacted with hot air in a parallel flow way in the descending process in the air, the moisture is quickly evaporated, the mixture is instantly dried in the air into doped tungsten oxide powder, the doped tungsten oxide powder falls to the bottom of a spray drying tower, and the doped tungsten oxide powder enters a screening device through a doped tungsten oxide outlet and a second discharge valve to be screened, abnormal coarse particles are removed, and doped dry tungsten oxide powder with uniform particle size is obtained. Wherein the tungsten oxide feedstock comprises at least one of yellow tungsten and blue tungsten.
Further, the particle size of the tungsten oxide used is 20 to 80 μm. The inventors found that too large tungsten oxide particle size may cause non-uniform and insufficient doping, resulting in non-uniform particle size of the finally obtained tungsten powder; the tungsten oxide has too small a particle size, which is not favorable for obtaining coarse tungsten powder. And the dopant is an alkali metal salt, for example, the alkali metal salt includes at least one of sodium bicarbonate, lithium bicarbonate, potassium bicarbonate, sodium tungstate, sodium carbonate, lithium hydroxide, potassium tungstate, lithium tungstate, potassium carbonate, lithium carbonate, sodium hydroxide, and potassium hydroxide.
Meanwhile, in the mixing process of the stirring device, the mass ratio of the tungsten oxide to the water to the dopant is (1000-10000): (500-5000): (0.5 to 100). The inventor finds that by adopting the mass ratio in the range of the application, on one hand, the fluidity of the doping liquid and the uniformity and sufficiency of doping can be ensured, and on the other hand, the doping liquid fog drops can be ensured to be instantly and fully dried in a spray drying tower, so that the obtained tungsten oxide powder after doping has good dispersibility. And the temperature of the hot gas supplied by the heating device is 90-150 ℃. The inventor finds that if the temperature is too low, the doping liquid fog drops cannot be instantly and fully dried in the descending process, and the drying efficiency is low; if the temperature is too high, thermal denaturation of the doped tungsten oxide may occur.
S200: the undersize material obtained by the screening device is supplied to the reduction unit to be in contact with hydrogen gas for reduction
In the step, the tungsten oxide powder after doping and sieving is supplied to a reduction unit from a tungsten oxide inlet after drying and doping, hydrogen is supplied to the reduction unit through a hydrogen inlet, the tungsten oxide powder after doping and the hydrogen are subjected to contact reduction in the reduction unit to obtain tungsten powder, and the tungsten powder is promoted to grow thick in the reduction process due to the fact that the tungsten oxide is doped with alkali metal elements, so that ultra-thick tungsten powder is finally obtained. Further, the reduction temperature is 980-3H is used as the reference value. The particle size of the ultra-coarse particle tungsten powder is 20-100 mu m. The inventor finds that the volatilization of the tungsten oxide increases with the increase of the temperature, and the higher the reduction temperature, the more the tungsten oxide and the water vapor are promoted to form volatile hydrate, and the tungsten oxide is reduced on the surfaces of the reduced tungsten powder particles and the low-valence tungsten oxide, so that the original particles are thickened. Therefore, if the reduction temperature is too lowTungsten powder which is not favorable for forming coarse particles; if the reduction temperature is too high, the tungsten powder particles obtained may be non-uniform. Meanwhile, if the reduction time is too short, incomplete reduction may be caused, and the obtained tungsten powder has a fine particle size; if the reduction time is too long, the obtained tungsten powder particles are not uniform and resources are wasted. In addition, if the hydrogen flow is too large, the water vapor of the reduction product can be discharged in time, so that the reduction reaction speed is accelerated, and the fine tungsten powder can be obtained easily; if the hydrogen flow rate is too small, the reduction time is long.
The following embodiments of the present invention are described in detail, and it should be noted that the following embodiments are exemplary only, and are not to be construed as limiting the present invention. In addition, all reagents used in the following examples are commercially available or can be synthesized according to methods herein or known, and are readily available to those skilled in the art for reaction conditions not listed, if not explicitly stated.
