Background

Nylon is a substance which is easy to absorb moisture and oxidize at high temperature, and in many occasions, nylon chips need to be dried by nitrogen before use, and solid-phase tackifying of nylon is also carried out in a nitrogen environment. Circulating nitrogen with high temperature and low dew point is generally used as a medium in a nylon slice drying device and a solid phase tackifying device to carry away redundant moisture in slices, wet nitrogen is washed again to reduce the temperature, and the temperature of the nitrogen is reduced to the process dew point temperature by using chilled water. The main energy consumption of the part comes from the system resistance of the circulating nitrogen and the chilled water consumption for reducing the temperature value of the nitrogen and the dew point temperature of the process.

Circulating nitrogen with high temperature and low dew point is generally used as a medium in a nylon slice drying device and a solid-phase tackifying device to carry away redundant moisture in slices; the hot nitrogen containing a large amount of moisture is subjected to heat exchange through the energy saver, then is subjected to spray washing and low-temperature dehumidification, and simultaneously, impurities carried in the nitrogen are removed, and then the nitrogen is recycled.

The temperature of nitrogen after hot nitrogen containing moisture passes through an energy saver is usually about 55 ℃, and at present, two subsequent common modes of temperature reduction and dehumidification are provided: the first mode is that low-temperature cold water subjected to heat exchange of chilled water is directly sprayed, washed and cooled to the process dew point temperature in a packed tower (as in the traditional mode 1); the method has the characteristics of short flow, small wind resistance and large chilled water consumption. The second mode is that low-temperature water which is subjected to conventional cooling water heat exchange is sprayed in the packed tower for washing and cooling, and then the nitrogen is cooled to the process dew point temperature through a chilled water heat exchanger (as in the traditional mode 2); the chilled water heat exchanger is usually a tube type heat exchanger or a plate type heat exchanger, in order to achieve higher heat exchange efficiency, a higher nitrogen flow rate needs to be adopted in heat exchange equipment, and a gas-water separation device needs to be additionally arranged at an outlet to separate moisture carried by high-speed nitrogen so as to avoid bringing water back to the system; the method has the characteristics of longer flow, larger nitrogen resistance of the system and higher equipment cost; the consumption of the chilled water is low, and the amount of the chilled water can be saved by using seasonal cooling.
