II. Device Description
1. Equipment Introduction
This series of NMP recovery units utilizes the high boiling point (203 ºC) of NMP to condense and freeze 90% to 95% of NMP waste gas for return air while ensuring a dew point temperature of -35 ºC in the exhaust gas. A small amount of 5-10% waste gas is adsorbed by the runner, reaching a discharge rate of less than 6PPM. This recycling unit has high recycling rate, low operating cost, beautiful appearance, small footprint, superior performance, and easy operation. It can be widely used in the coating process of lithium battery production lines. According to the fact that Party A has one single-layer coating machine with an exhaust air volume of 30000 m3/h, Party B designs two junior high efficiency filter boxes with a processing air volume of 30000 m3/h for Party A, one high-efficiency waste heat recovery unit with a processing air volume of 30000 m3/h, and one NMP condensation refrigeration treatment and recovery unit with a processing air volume of 30000 m3/h.
The equipment is an efficient heat recovery system, with a heat recovery efficiency of up to 75%. It adopts patented technology and a plate exchange structure. Ensure that the return air temperature is around 85 ºC (when the exhaust air temperature is 110 ºC). Greatly saving heating gas costs and improving efficiency. Reduce the amount of heat emitted into the atmosphere close to room temperature, without generating thermal radiation or heat loss.

6.2,Process Description:
6.2.1The temperature of NMP containing waste gas discharged from a coating machine is about 110 ºC, and it first enters the respective high-efficiency waste heat recovery equipment. After heat exchange, the temperature drops to around 50 ºC; (30000m3/h) enters the respective condensing hosts and further exchanges heat to cool down to below 18 ºC. The NMP concentration in the exhaust gas is less than 300ppm. After the exhaust gas is demisted through the baffle, the treated exhaust gas is heated by efficient waste heat recovery equipment and enters the new air outlet of the respective coating machine. The treated exhaust gas is combined by 5-10% and then introduced into the VOC rotor adsorption section by the rotor induced draft fan for adsorption, reaching a height of up to 6PPM for external discharge.
6.2.2 The first section of the condensing host is equipped with a cooling water (or refrigeration unit) heat exchanger, where the hot air outside the finned tubes drops below 30 ºC. The second section is equipped with a tube fin type refrigeration heat exchanger, which reduces the exhaust gas to below 18 ºC through 7 ºC chilled water. The third section is a mist removal and retention section, which intercepts the majority of NMP droplets.
6.2.3 About 20% (300m3/h) of the high concentration exhaust gas generated by the wheel desorption is returned to the surface cooling system in front of the wheel unit for chilled water heat exchange and condensation. 80% (about 2400m3/h) of the low concentration exhaust gas (concentration within 6ppm) is discharged through high-altitude environmental protection.
6.2.4 Efficient waste heat recovery involves a small amount of condensed waste liquid, and the vast majority of NMP is condensed from the condensing host and the wheel adsorber. The waste liquid from these three parts naturally flows into the waste liquid buffer tank through gravity.


6.3,Process characteristics
1) Air tightness:
1.1) Stainless steel heat exchanger, pressure test of 25KG to ensure no liquid leakage;
1.2) All condensing hosts are fully welded and subjected to a pressure test of 1MPA;
1.3) All flange ports shall be processed and tested according to the specifications and standards of the pressure vessel;
1.4) The filter installed in the air duct and the manually adjusted air valve and other parts with the possibility of air leakage are installed inside the main unit box, and a small door is made outside according to the requirements of the pressure vessel to ensure that no liquid leakage occurs outside the main unit;
1.5) The discharged gas is controlled and regulated by an electric air valve.
2) Energy saving:
2.1) The flow rate of water and the temperature of gas discharge form a closed-loop system to achieve energy conservation;
2.2) The fan adjusts the air volume through a frequency converter;
2.3) The average total electrical energy consumption of the entire system does not exceed 160KW;
3) Stability:
3.1) When the main fan malfunctions, an alarm will be triggered through the air pressure transmitter and positive pressure sensor;
3.2) When running for a long time, the temperature of the return air is high, and the concentration of the return air cannot reach below 300PPM, the reason is that there is thick dirt on the gas-liquid heat exchange surface; At this point, it is necessary to manually enter the maintenance port for cleaning operations, with an average of twelve internal cleaning operations per year.
4) Guarantee of exhaust emissions:
4.1) The exhaust emissions are absorbed by the wheel and then discharged. Energy saving, maintenance free, and low failure rate. Stable and guaranteed emissions
4.2) There are mature cases to ensure exhaust emissions. The minimum can reach 1PPM.

6.5,Supporting air duct (Party A arranges third-party construction)
1) This project adopts SUS304 (stainless steel) rolled plates with a thickness of ≥ 1.2mm,
2) After the production of the air duct is completed, each weld must undergo visual inspection, and each section of the pipeline must undergo a 3000Pa micro pressure leakage test. If there is no leakage within 2 hours, it is considered qualified,
3) Air duct weld treatment: internal pickling and passivation of the pipeline+clean water washing; Externally, steel wire brushes are used to remove welding black spots.
4) Before leaving the factory, the air duct must be knocked on the board wall and then sucked inside with a magnetic strip, and wiped with a clean cloth. After confirming that there are no iron filings, dust, etc., it must be sealed with a special film. It is prohibited to remove it before installation to prevent dust from entering.
6-5-1 Air duct insulation: (Party A arranges third-party construction)
A. Main components: reinforced rock wool insulation cotton, insulation nails, hexagonal mesh, (not limited to this form, the bidder provides a plan, and the bidding party confirms)
B. Surface temperature requirement for air duct insulation layer: ≤ room temperature+5 ° C
C. Insulation material: reinforced rock wool insulation cotton with stainless steel 0.4mm hexagonal mesh outer protection. The insulation material should be rock wool board with a unit weight not less than 100Kg/m3
D. The insulation nails on the outer wall of the air duct should be welded, and special welding equipment should be used for on-site welding to prevent perforation. The distance between them should be W250mm;
Insulation layer construction
E. According to this technical requirement, the insulation construction process for air ducts (main components: reinforced rock wool insulation cotton, insulation nails): if there is a flange welding connection method between the installation sections of the pipeline on site, the flange height is 20-30mm, which is mainly determined by the pipe diameter. The welding of the flange is carried out by manual chlorine arc welding, and the weld seam is full. After welding, the workpiece must be kept flat and not deformed, and the weld seam must be smooth and defect free. The external insulation material of the air duct is made of aluminum foil reinforced rock wool insulation cotton and stainless steel 4mm hexagonal mesh outer protection, insulation material selected is rock wool board with a unit weight of 100Kg/m3 and a thickness of 50mm. (After the installation of the insulation layer, dust, particles, and other pollutants are not allowed to contaminate the oven area)

7. Measures for preventing fooling operation
1) User operation interlocking: Users are divided into operating users and administrator users. Operating users can only simply start and stop the equipment and cannot change process parameters. However, administrator users can change process parameters and also operate the start and stop of the equipment to prevent arbitrary changes in process parameters.
2) Device start and stop restrictions: Only logged in operating or administrator users can operate the device to prevent non related personnel from operating the device.
3) Convenience of automatic control: Automatic start can be divided into single machine automatic and online automatic. Single machine automatic means to run independently of the coating machine. In the system, just click on automatic start. Online automatic means to synchronize the start and stop of the coating machine, with a delay. In this state, the recycling system is completely controlled by the coating machine, and users do not need any operation.
4) Convenience of manual control: All manually operated devices are concentrated in the manual operation screen and have detailed noun descriptions, making it easier for users to operate. All devices in the system can be started and stopped separately, and the start and stop conditions are controlled by the program. Users do not need to worry about pressing the wrong button causing equipment damage.
5) System process diagram: A system process diagram will be drawn in the operation screen, indicating the installation location and working status of fans, valves, water pumps, etc. Users can easily monitor the working status of the equipment, and it is easier to understand the equipment based on the process diagram
Operating principle.
6) Parameter settings: The parameter settings are all set to an inputtable range, and users can only modify the parameters within this range. Even if the user accidentally enters an incorrect parameter, the system will automatically correct it within this range, and users do not need to worry about system failures caused by parameter settings errors.
7) Alarm Record: Detailed alarm explanations provide users with the ability to quickly locate system faults. All possible faults in the system have been recorded as alarms, so users do not need to worry about what to do if an alarm occurs.
8) Running status: Green indicates running, while red indicates stopping.
9) Alarm status: Sound, light, and color indication, indicating system faults for the user.
