摘要
Traditional mixing and clarification tanks generally use rigid stirring blades to achieve liquid-liquid two-phase mixed extraction, which generally suffers from low efficiency and high energy consumption. A kind of elastic combined impeller was used in the mixing clarifier in this work to enhance the liquid-liquid biphase mixing behavior. Lyapunov exponent (LLE) and multiscale entropy (MSE) were used to characterize the chaotic state of the system, the particle size distribution and D32 were used to characterize the dispersion effect. The influence of impeller type (elastic combined impeller, rigid-flexible combined impeller and rigid impeller), spring length, wire diameter and outer diameter on mixing effect was studied. The results indicated that compared with the rigid impeller and the rigid-flexible combined impeller, the elastic combined impeller strengthens the energy dissipation mode of the flow field through the deformation and energy storage of the spring, improves the dispersion effect of the dispersed phase, and was conducive to the chaotic mixing of the liquid-liquid biphase. When stirring speed N = 200 r/min, the spring wire diameter was 0.6 mm, the relative length of the spring was 1.2, and the external diameter of the spring was 7 mm, the LLE value and the amplitude of MSE were the largest and the MSE values fluctuate most strongly. At the same time, there was a log-linear relationship between the D32 of dispersed phase and the stirring speed in each stirring system, and the droplet size of dispersed phase in the elastic combined impeller system was smaller and more. © 2020, Chemical Industry Press Co., Ltd.
