SORPTION APPARATUS WITH AUTOMATED LOADING AND UNLOADING OF SORBENT Russian patent published in 2021 - IPC B01D15/04 

FIELD: sorption apparatuses.

SUBSTANCE: invention relates to sorption apparatuses for liquid purification and can be used, in particular, for cleaning spent fire-resistant turbine lubricating oil from acid impurities at thermal power plants (TPP) and nuclear power plants (NPP). The sorption apparatus contains a movable cylindrical housing mounted on bearings fixed on a fixed frame with a screw fixed inside it. In this case, from the inlet side, the cylindrical body adjoins through a seal to the outlet of the loading hopper, fixed on a fixed frame, and from the outlet side, the cylindrical body adjoins through a seal to the inlet to the unloading hopper, fixed on a fixed frame. Moreover, the movable cylindrical body has a drive mechanism. In this case, the loading hopper has an upper gate, and the unloading hopper has a lower gate. Wherein the supply pipeline is connected to the loading hopper between the upper gate and the inlet to the cylindrical body, and the outlet pipeline is connected to the unloading hopper between the lower gate and the outlet from the cylindrical body. At the same time, filters are installed on the line of the supply and discharge pipelines.

EFFECT: increasing the intensity of interaction of the sorbent with the liquid to be purified and eliminating the need to disassemble the sorption apparatus when reloading the sorbent.
