Study on the Characteristics of High-Temperature and High-Pressure Spray Flash Evaporation for Zero-Liquid Discharge of Desulfurization Wastewater by Lanshui Zhang, Zhong Liu

“…The effects of feedwater temperature, pressure, nozzle spray angle, and mass flow rate on spray flash evaporation characteristics were systematically analyzed. Key findings reveal that (1) feedwater temperature is the dominant factor, with the vaporization rate significantly increasing from 19.78% to 55.88% as temperature rises from 240 °C to 360 °C; (2) higher pressure reduces equilibrium time (flash evaporation is complete within 6 ms) but shows negligible impact on final vaporization efficiency (stabilized at 33.93%); (3) increasing the spray angle provides limited improvement to water recovery efficiency (<1%); (4) an optimal mass flow rate exists (0.2 t/h), achieving a peak vaporization rate of 42.6% due to balanced evaporation space utilization. …”
