What are the main reasons for the high noise level in chlorine buffer tanks?
Thread Content
The inlet pressure of the chlorine buffer tank in the hydrogen chloride synthesis system at our plant is around 0.5 MPa, and it generates a lot of noise. Have any experts encountered this phenomenon? What could be the cause? Are there any relevant solutions?
High-speed airflow hitting the cylinder wall, as well as friction caused by the obstruction of the airflow, will definitely generate noise. Insufficient design features can only be remedied later, such as by spending money to install noise reduction and sound insulation devices.
I’m sorry; the value is incorrect. The inlet pressure is approximately 0.15 MPa, which is roughly the same as the inlet pressure of the hydrogen buffer tank. However, the hydrogen buffer tank does not produce such loud noise. Could there be a problem with the installation, or is the noise caused by some foreign objects inside the tank?
First, the cause must be identified in order to prescribe the right solution.
Chlorine is much denser than hydrogen; under the same pressure, a hydrogen tank makes no sound, while it is normal for a chlorine tank to make noise. Installing silencers before and after the fan will solve the problem.
