The wet electrostatic precipitator, made of 2205 material and designed for flue gas treatment at the front-end of the yellow phosphorus furnace, has been officially put into operation.

wet electrostatic precipitator, made of 2205 material,has been officially put into operation.
The flue gas handling capacity of this equipment is ≤ 80,000 m³/h, the flue gas temperature is ≤ 90℃, the working pressure is ≤ 7,000 Pa, and the designed flow velocity of the demister is ≤ 1 m/s. Since the flue gas is from the front-end of the yellow phosphorus furnace and contains highly corrosive media such as sulfur, phosphorus, arsenic and fluorine, the anode tubes, upper shell, middle shell and lower shell of the wet electrostatic precipitator are all made of 2205 duplex stainless steel. With its excellent impact toughness and outstanding overall and local corrosion resistance, it ensures the stable operation of the entire equipment system.

The wet electrostatic precipitator has been delivered to the customer and put into use (visually smokeless).

A 500,000 Nm³/h wet electrostatic precipitator for yellow phosphorus slag gas has successfully finished commissioning and been handed over to the customer for use!! Adopting wet electrostatic demisting (dust removal) technology to treat the tail gas of yellow phosphorus slag, this equipment helps the customer meet environmental protection standards and optimize production. The medium handled by this 500,000 Nm³/h wet electrostatic demister is the slag gas generated from the water quenching of yellow phosphorus furnace slag. The gas contains highly corrosive substances such as sulfur, phosphorus, arsenic and fluorine, with an operating temperature ≤ 60℃ and an operating pressure within 6000 Pa.


The flowing medium of this project is the saturated wet flue gas after the alkaline washing tower (wet air and acid or alkaline water vapor), including the flue gas from yellow phosphorus tail gas combustion and phosphorus distillation flue gas. The normal flue gas temperature ranges from 40 to 55℃, and the pH value is between 4 and 10. The flue gas contains acidic substances and dust such as fluorides, sulfur and phosphorus, or excess alkaline washing liquid, presenting strong corrosiveness. The treatment capacity of the wet electrostatic precipitator is 185,000 m³/h, with the normal inlet flue gas temperature of 40–55℃. When the inlet dust content is ≤ 60 mg/m³, the outlet dust concentration is required to be ≤ 15 mg/m³.

Operating Data of Wet Electrostatic Precipitator for Sludge Phosphorus Recovery and Comprehensive Utilization Project

Boiler flue gas in cane sugar refineries is generally characterized by high moisture content and high dust density. For the treatment of such flue gas, the gritstone water film demisting technology can be adopted. It is a wet demisting process based on gritstone, configured as a "vertical/horizontal Venturi + cyclone water film/cyclone plate demister". This technology boasts advantages such as low investment, simple maintenance and long service life. Flue gas treated by this technology could basically meet the previous old emission standards; however, with the upgrading of emission requirements to the current new standards, this technology can no longer satisfy the existing compliance criteria.
At present, three technologies are worthy of exploration, namely bag-type demisting technology, electrostatic-bag hybrid demisting technology and wet electrostatic precipitator technology. Each of these three demisting technologies has distinct advantages: bag-type and electrostatic-bag hybrid demisting technologies feature high demisting efficiency, but they entail high operating costs and have a short service life. In contrast, wet electrostatic precipitator technology is highly practical and easy to operate, yet it needs to be combined with other technologies to exert its optimal performance. The better the water droplet atomization effect and the larger the dust particles, the more prominent the final treatment outcome will be.

The waste gas generated during the production of phosphorus chemical industry mainly includes carbon monoxide, sulfur dioxide, carbon dioxide, hydrogen fluoride, silicon tetrafluoride, phosphine, hydrogen sulfide, etc., along with some dust. Carbon monoxide (CO) is a colorless, odorless, flammable and toxic gas, and yellow phosphorus tail gas is the main source of CO. Therefore, it is an urgent and critical moment to prevent global warming caused by carbon dioxide (CO?) gas. Sulfur dioxide (SO?) is a colorless, slightly odorous and suffocating gas, and also one of the main substances causing air pollution.
Weng'an is hailed as the "Phosphorus Warehouse of Asia" due to its abundant phosphate rock resources. Endowed with rich mineral resources to fuel economic development, Weng'an County has always adhered to the two bottom lines of development and ecology to promote the transformation and upgrading of the phosphorus chemical industry. It has continuously taken new-type industrialization as the main direction for the high-quality economic development of Weng'an, firmly established and practiced the concept that "lucid waters and lush mountains are invaluable assets", and unswervingly taken the path of industrial ecologization and ecological industrialization. It is against this background that Weimei Environmental Protection has the opportunity to participate in a series of production technology upgrading and transformation projects of Longma Phosphorus Industry.

Baghouse Dust Collector for the Flue Gas Pre-treatment Unit of the 100 t/h High-temperature & High-pressure Gas-fired Boiler (540℃, 9.8 MPa) Fueled by Yellow Phosphorus Tail Gas
This unit adopts sodium carbonate (Na?CO?) as the flue gas treatment agent, and employs a baghouse dust collector for mist removal. The flue gas pre-treatment unit consists of four parts: a raw material silo, a feeding system, a mixing and drying system, and a baghouse mist eliminator. The flue gas in this project has high contents of sulfur, phosphorus and other acidic substances, so the flue gas pre-treatment unit must fully consider the corrosion caused by sulfur, phosphorus and other acidic substances. All flues in the flue gas pre-treatment unit are made of materials not lower than 2205 duplex stainless steel and 316L stainless steel.

Stable Operation of the Baghouse Dust Collector (1,760 Bags) for the Comprehensive Utilization & Pre-treatment Unit of Yellow Phosphorus Tail Gas

The flue gas pre-treatment unit is composed of four parts: a raw material silo, a feeding system, a mixing and drying system, and a baghouse dust collector .
The yellow phosphorus tail gas is treated by a coal gas purification filter and then enters a gas holder. After being purified by a desulfurization device, it is fed into the 100 t/h boiler of the yellow phosphorus tail gas power generation system for combustion. The exhaust gas generated by combustion is treated through the process of flue gas pre-treatment unit + baghouse dust collector + “wet desulfurization + wet electrostatic precipitator”. SO?, NO? and particulate matter can meet the emission standards, and are finally discharged through the existing 50-meter-high exhaust stack.
