Problems solved by technology

[0004] For sewage treatment, the current common solution in the industry is: first, carry out complex treatment of sewage to meet the discharge standard or reuse standard; the discharge standard is relatively simple, but it requires reuse, and often requires desalination treatment, such as reverse osmosis Or nanofiltration; in many cases, the cost of treatment is very high when the pollutants are complicated

example 1

[0055] Example 1: Coupling of sodium chloride dissolution in chlor-alkali plant and municipal sewage

[0056] Chlor-alkali plants have a large amount of sodium chloride salt to be refined every year. The first step of refining is to use a large amount of water to dissolve the solid salt, and then count it into the next step of removing calcium, magnesium and sulfate ions. Dissolving solid salt requires nearly three times as much clean water. This example takes the dissolution of sodium chloride as an example to illustrate the characteristics and advantages of the present invention.

[0057] The effluent from the second-layer pool of the municipal sewage treatment plant is used as the raw material solution. The COD content of sewage is 150 mg / L, which does not meet the requirements of sodium chloride refining for dissolved water. Using osmotic dilution technology, municipal sewage is used as the raw material liquid, solid sodium chloride is used as the driving substance, and t...

example 2

[0060] Alkali plants have a large amount of sodium chloride salt to be refined every year. The first step of refining is to dissolve the solid salt with a large amount of water, which requires nearly three times as much clean water to dissolve the solid salt. Most of the sodium chloride salt in the alkali plant is obtained through the concentration of underground brine, and drying salt requires a lot of land resources, and it is a low-efficiency process. This example is to illustrate the characteristics and advantages of the present invention by taking the actual application of an alkali plant as an example.

[0061] Underground brine is used as the raw material solution, and its water quality index is shown in Table 1 below. The data in the table shows that the salt content of brine reaches 10.8%. Using conventional reverse osmosis or nanofiltration membrane technology, the operating pressure is very high, which is technically unfeasible. Therefore, in alkali plants, salt dry...

Abstract

The invention provides a method and a system for recycling a non-clean water source by utilizing osmotic energy. The method comprises the steps of enabling a raw material solution to circulate to one side of a semi-permeable membrane assembly through a pump, wherein the raw material solution is the non-clean water source which is generated in industry, municipal and life processes and cannot be directly utilized; enabling a resolvable driving substance in the form of a driving solution to circulate to the other side of the semi-permeable membrane assembly through the pump, unidirectionally diffusing water in the raw material solution to the driving solution though the semi-permeable membrane assembly so as to dilute the driving solution and realize the concentration of the raw material solution; enabling the diluted driving solution to return back to a solution storage pool, enabling the driving solution to return to a saturated state or improving the concentration, restoring the driving effect, repeating the processes of circulation, one-way penetration and driving restoring. The method and the system provided by the invention have the advantages that the condensation process of the non-clean water source and the dissolution process of the driving solute are simultaneously realized, the consumption of the uncontaminated water source is reduced, the industry energy consumption is reduced, and thus the production cost is reduced, and the economic benefits are improved.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to the technical field of separation, in particular to a method and a system for utilizing osmotic energy to reuse unclean water sources. Background technique [0002] A very common and largely overlooked source of energy in industrial processes is the chemical energy of salt dissolution, or osmotic energy. The dissolution process of salt is a diffusion process, and it is usually an exothermic process, that is, the osmotic energy is released in the form of heat. How to use osmotic energy directly instead of dissipating it in the form of heat is an industrial problem. For example, in the typical chlor-alkali industry in the inorganic chemical industry, a large amount of sodium chloride is dissolved, and 1 ton of solid salt needs about 3 tons of water to dissolve before reaching the required salt concentration. Dissolving sodium chloride is also a very common process in the soda ash industry. For example, some soda ash plants need...
