Electromagnetic Flowmeter - Application in Wet Desulphurization System

Application of Electromagnetic Flowmeter in Wet Desulphurization System ---- Main measuring object (slurry) in desulfurization system has strong corrosive and abrasive properties and high solid content (up to 30%) , Conventional measurement methods and instruments can not meet the requirements. This paper describes the working principle and application method of electromagnetic flowmeter in the wet desulfurization system for the wet desulfurization system. The wet desulfurization system is an extremely effective method for reducing the sulfur dioxide emissions from the exhaust gas of coal-fired boilers. The flue gas emitted from the boiler is blown into the wet reaction absorber. In the absorber, a mixture of water and limestone powder is sprayed onto the flue gas. Limestone slurry absorbs sulfur dioxide (SO2) contained in the flue gas, reducing the emission of sulfides. Lime reacts with sulfur dioxide (SO2) to form calcium sulfite. The calcium sulfite chemically reacts with oxygen and is eventually converted into gypsum. Limestone slurry and gypsum slurry have a strong abrasive effect. Electromagnetic flowmeters are generally used to measure and control the flow of limestone slurry to control the injection rate for optimal absorption and cost effectiveness.

Because of the abrasive nature of the slurry, the use of PTFE-lined magnetic flowmeters has a short lifetime. Without the use of a lining electrode, the seal layer is exposed in the process limestone slurry, which can easily lead to instrument failure. Once the sealing layer is worn or the sealing layer around the electrode is eroded away, the process paddle fluid penetrates the inside of the flowmeter (coil and electrode connections).

In the same way, ordinary flowmeter protruding electrodes collide with limestone and gypsum in the process flow and generate flow noise (potential difference), and the signal processing technology cannot distinguish the noise from the true flow signal, so the output of such flowmeter is It is unreliable and cannot be used for control.

Improper installation can also cause electromagnetic flowmeter failure. In addition to having to properly install upstream and downstream of the process line in accordance with installation requirements, it is also important to control the flow rate of the slurry within a suitable range. If the flow rate is too low, below 1.5 m/s (5 ft/s), solids (limestone) will settle out of the suspension and cause rapid wear in the bottom horizontal direction inside the electromagnetic flowmeter. If the flow rate is too high, limestone in the slurry accelerates the wear of the lining above 2 m/s (7 ft/s).

Any of the above situations will lead to a rapid reduction of the service life of electromagnetic flowmeters.

The solution GY-LDE electromagnetic flowmeter is ideal for this application. Guan Yu Company embedded electrodes in the original lining, eliminating friction between the surface of the process paddle fluid and the seal layer, the service life of the electromagnetic flow meter is significantly increased, and at the same time eliminate the potential difference of noise generated by collision of limestone and gypsum with the electrode.

In addition, unlike ordinary electrodes, Guanyu's "double-frequency excitation" and optional "enhanced dual-frequency excitation" converters use high-frequency sampling technology to filter the noise generated by the flow of the paddle fluid, and thus provide stability. More accurate measurement performance.

A well-installed GY-LDE electromagnetic flowmeter allows smooth flow of the slurry and controls the flow rate within the range of 1.5 to 3 m/s (5 to 10 ft/s). In this state, the limestone remains suspended in water and wear of the lining is minimized. Due to the use of a metal ring to protect the leading edge of the lining, the corrosion of the lining is reduced.

When the above recommendations still fail to meet application requirements, ceramic lining flowmeters need to be selected. GY-LDE ceramic lining electromagnetic flowmeter, lining has excellent wear resistance, weld embedded platinum electrode resistant to slurry erosion, and minimize measurement noise, is very suitable for such process applications.

Application of GY-LDE electromagnetic flow with superior performance, ceramic material lining, electrode non-liquid, with higher anti-abrasion performance, not affected by slurry flow noise, measurement accuracy is higher.

The above hopes can be helpful to everyone. For more information on options for orifice flowmeters, turbine flowmeters, precession vortex flowmeters, please visit http://
