Evaporative condenser assists aminoacetic acid industry to reduce consumption and increase production
According to reports, glycine is a fine chemical product whose greatest use is the synthesis of the herbicide glyphosate. The key to saving energy and reducing consumption of aminoacetic acid production is to increase the cooling effect of methanol, reduce the amount of methanol, and reduce the consumption of water and electricity. According to reports, the new condenser adopts advanced heat conduction technology and utilizes water film evaporation to take away latent heat. Compared with traditional air-cooled and water-cooled condensers, the heat exchange capacity is increased by several times; stainless steel wave tube is used instead of ordinary light. The tube increases the heat transfer coefficient and improves the condensation effect. The structure of the equipment changes from the original shell-and-tube or tube-type structure to the combined structure of a collecting tank, a cooling tower, a cooler, a pump, a tube, and a valve. Not only saves 80% of water in production, saves 25% of electricity, but also saves 40% of equipment and saves more than 50% of steel.
It is understood that following the successful application of this equipment at Yuanshi Hongsheng Chemical Co., Ltd. at the beginning of this year, 21 more equipments have been promoted and applied in 15 aminoacetic acid manufacturers in Hebei and Shandong provinces, all of which have achieved good results. Energy-saving effect is favored by glycine enterprises.
