Detailed Description of the Invention

[0001]

BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION The present invention relates to, for example, a steel material pickling tank,
Equipment and treatment to prevent harmful gas generated from plating tank, aluminum anodizing tank, electrolysis tank or heating furnace using a push-pull duct and prevent it from diffusing into the atmosphere above the tank. It is about the method.

[0002]

BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION As a typical example of a method for preventing local exhaustion and diffusion of harmful gas such as acidic vapor generated from a liquid interface in a pickling tank or gas generated from an electrolysis tank to the upper side of the tank, As shown in FIG. 6, the jet duct 21 is discharged from the push duct 21 by a push-pull device in which a jet discharge push duct 21 is provided on one side of the upper part of the tank 20 and a pull duct 22 for sucking the jet is provided on the opposite side. An air curtain 23 is formed on the upper surface of the tank 20 by a jet flow to block harmful gas generated from the liquid interface in the tank 20 and becoming an upward flow, and the harmful gas is sucked by the pull duct 22 together with the jet flow.
There are ways to prevent exhaust and diffusion into the atmosphere.

In FIG. 6, 24 is an air blower, 25 is an exhaust fan, and 26 is a harmful gas treatment device. According to this method, the harmful gas generated from the liquid interface in the tank 20 is prevented from diffusing into the atmosphere above the tank 20, and the harmful gas treating apparatus 2 is provided.
6, but a large discharge flow rate from the push duct 21 for forming the air curtain 23 is required for the amount of harmful gas generated, and as a result, a large suction flow rate of the pull duct 22 is also necessary. Therefore, a large amount of energy is required, and a large volume of the harmful gas treatment device 26 is required.

By the way, the discharge jet forming the air curtain 23 is determined by the size and discharge velocity of the discharge port of the push duct 21, and the velocity distribution and the jet flow rate of the jet at the distance Z (m) from the discharge port are as follows. Formula (1),
It is represented by (2).

[0005]

[Equation 1]

That is, the jet flow rate is proportional to the 1/2 power of the distance Z and inversely proportional to the 1/2 power of the discharge port width a. Therefore, when the distance Z between the push duct and the pull duct increases, the atmospheric gases (I) and (II) above and below the jet flow are injected to increase the flow rate, and the flow velocity decreases due to the law of conservation of momentum. Means Further, as will be described later, as the jet flow is mixed in the jet flow as the distance increases, as the jet flow length increases, the harmful gas mixed in the jet flow is prevented from diffusing into the atmosphere. Must increase the ratio of the jet flow that must be sucked by the pull duct, and must increase the suction amount of the pull duct in proportion to the increase of the jet flow rate.

Further, the jet flow is about 10 to the jet center.
With a development angle of 13 °, the jet width XL is represented by the equation (4). XL = A + 2 · Z · tan (ψ) (4) Therefore, when the distance Z becomes large, the jet width XL becomes proportionally large, and when the jet is long, the suction port width of the pull duct 22 also becomes large in proportion to the distance Z. However, there is an inconvenience that the equipment is required, the equipment cost is increased, and the pickling operation of the pickling object into and out of the pickling tank is disturbed.

Further, as the distance Z increases, the jet velocity rapidly decreases, and the effect of shutting off the air curtain 23 by the jet decreases, so that it is easily affected by the air flow and disturbance of the atmosphere. For example, the harmful gas Qx rises up from the liquid interface inside the tank to shut off the air curtain 23 and the air curtain 2.
Although it is guided to the suction port of the pull duct 22 along the streamline of the amount of injection Q ₂ of the atmosphere (II) of 3 and locally discharged,
The jet of the air curtain 23 is formed by mixing and mixing harmful gas in the process, and if the formation is hindered by the outside airflow or the passage of the pickled product in and out, the total amount of the air curtain jet is It is not sucked into the pull duct 22 and partly flows out to the atmosphere (I) side, that is, the atmosphere side. Therefore, as the distance Z increases, the blocking effect of the air curtain 23 decreases, and the atmospheric diffusivity of harmful gas increases,
The risk of harmful gas diffusion increases.

In addition to the method described above, a method for preventing local exhaustion and diffusion of harmful gas such as acidic vapor generated from a liquid interface in a pickling tank or the like or gas generated from an electrolysis tank to the upper side of the tank. As shown in FIG. 7, as a typical example of
Providing a pair of pull ducts 28 on opposite sides of the upper part of the tank 27,
Further, by a push-pull device having a pair of push ducts 29 provided on the upper portion thereof, an air curtain 38 is formed on the upper surface of the tank 27 by jets of gases discharged from the discharge ports 32 of the push duct 29 so as to collide with each other, and the discharge is performed. The harmful gas generated from the liquid interface in the tank 27 due to the air flow split to the tank side due to the collision of the jet flows and becoming an upward flow is pulled by the pull duct 28.
There is also a method of guiding the harmful gas together with the jet flow through the pull duct 28 to exhaust the harmful gas, and preventing the harmful gas from diffusing into the atmosphere above the tank 27 by the blocking effect of the air curtain 38.

In FIG. 7, 30 is an air blower, 31 is a discharge air conduit, 34 is a suction gas conduit, 35 is an exhaust fan, and 3 is an air blower.
Reference numeral 6 is a harmful gas treatment device. According to this method, the cutoff distance Z of the air curtain can be half that in the method shown in FIG. 6, so the flow rate of the air forming the air curtain 38 is reduced, and therefore the suction flow rate in the tank 27 is small. The harmful gas generated from the liquid interface can be prevented from diffusing into the atmosphere above the tank 27 and discharged to the harmful gas treatment device 36.

However, in the method shown in FIG. 7, since a set of push-pull devices must be provided on the opposite side of the upper part of the tank 27, heights H ₁ and H ₂ are required, and a crane or the like for carrying the steel material to be processed is required. 6 is higher than that of the method shown in FIG. This may hinder the operation, and a work platform corresponding to the heights H ₁ and H ₂ of the push-pull device is used for observing the steel material processing situation in the tank and monitoring the steel material loading / unloading work. For example, a large amount of equipment cost is required for the operation and the manufacturing cost is increased.

The horizontal jet flow from the push duct 3 and the obliquely downward jet flow from the push duct 3'collide with each other. Reference numeral 4 is an air blower, and the fresh outside air sucked by the air blower 4 is supplied to the push ducts 3 and 3 ′ through the conduit 5. Reference numerals 6 and 6 ′ are discharge ports of the push ducts 3 and 3 ′, and 7 is a suction port of the pull duct 2. The discharge ports 6 and 6'have a width A and have the same length dimension L as the lengthwise dimension of the pickling tank 1, and the suction port 7 has a width B and the discharge ports 6 of the push ducts 3 and 3 '. , 6'have the same length dimension L.

That is, the harmful gas and jet in the pickling tank 1 are in the pull duct 2. The gas is sucked from the suction port 7 through the conduit 8 by the exhaust fan 9, sent to the harmful gas treatment device 10 and subjected to the detoxification treatment, and then discharged into the atmosphere by the conduit 11.

In the gas treatment apparatus of the present invention configured as described above, the jet air having the discharge flow rate U _O and the discharge flow rate Q ₀ jetted from the discharge port 6 of the push duct 3 and the discharge port 6'of the push duct 3 '. Thus, the air curtain 12 is formed. Incidentally, in this specification, Q _o ~Q _7, Q _x the even symbols for distinguishing gas, also used as a symbol representing the flow rate of the gas.

That is, the jet flow rate Q ₃ in the air curtain 12 has a flow rate distribution as shown by the curve α with respect to the jet flow width XL, and the atmosphere (II), that is, the gas in the pickling tank 1 containing the harmful gas. The amount of the air blown into the air flow Q ₂ has a flow rate distribution represented by a curve β with respect to the jet width XL. Therefore, when the suction flow rate Q ₆ and the harmful gas amount Q _x by the pull duct 2 are set, according to the equations (7) and (8),
The upper and lower flow rates Q ₄ and Q ₅ are calculated, and the branch point XE of the jet flow Q ₃ in FIG. 2 is determined by the equations (9) and (10).

In the present invention, most of the air curtain jet becomes a downward flow, flows inside the pickling tank, and has a streamline directed to the suction port of the pull duct so as to guide harmful gas from the lower side of the pickling tank. Therefore, it is not likely to be adversely affected by factors such as obstructive wind from the atmosphere side and the factors that interfere with the formation of air curtains such as the work of pickling and pickling steel that is an object to be pickled into and from the pickling tank, and the risk of diffusing harmful gas into the atmosphere. Is small.

Therefore, the same constituents as those in the first embodiment are designated by the same reference numerals and the description thereof will be omitted. In the device of the second embodiment shown in FIG. 3, the pull duct 2 and the suction port 7 are connected in the lateral direction, and the height of the push-pull device can be made lower.

In the apparatus of the third embodiment shown in FIG. 4, the positions of the pull duct 2 and the suction port 7 are reversed.
It can be used when there is room to accommodate the pull duct 2 on the tank side. The apparatus of the fourth embodiment shown in FIG. 5 is used when there is no room to accommodate the pull duct 2 on the tank side.

[0036]

According to the present invention, the harmful gas generated from the liquid interface of the tank can be effectively exhausted, the suction flow rate at this time is small, the running cost of the exhaust fan is low, and the harmful gas treatment is performed. Since the equipment can have a small volume, the equipment cost can be reduced, and further, the work to be put in and out of the tank and other work can be easily performed without preparing a work stand or the like.
