Description

Technical Field

[0001] This invention is a wastewater clarifier, belonging to the field of wastewater treatment technology. Background Technology

[0002] Wastewater clarification is the core pretreatment step in wastewater treatment. Its purpose is to separate suspended particles, colloids and other impurities in wastewater through physical sedimentation or chemical flocculation, so as to provide qualified water quality for subsequent advanced treatment.

[0003] Traditional clarifiers often employ static flocculation tank designs, resulting in uneven mixing of flocculant and wastewater. The resulting flocs are small and loose, with slow settling speeds, leading to large equipment footprints and low treatment efficiency. Furthermore, relying solely on a single gravity settling zone allows suspended particles to easily float to the surface or overflow, resulting in high turbidity in the effluent, making it difficult to meet subsequent treatment requirements. Additionally, sludge and scale layers easily adhere to the surface of the settling zone tank walls, necessitating periodic shutdowns for manual cleaning, which increases maintenance costs and cleaning difficulty. Summary of the Invention

[0004] In view of the shortcomings of the existing technology, the purpose of this invention is to provide a wastewater clarifier.

[0019] By utilizing the structure of the spiral thickener and return pipe, the sludge concentration is greatly increased compared to the traditional method, eliminating the need for additional sludge thickening equipment and significantly reducing sludge disposal costs. Attached Figure Description

[0032] The circuits and electronic components, modules and controllers, or the heat dissipation holes and maintenance doors in the space of the adapted electrical equipment are all existing technologies, which can be fully implemented by those skilled in the art, and need not be elaborated. The content protected by this application does not involve improvements to software and methods or heat dissipation and maintenance.

[0033] During use, the wastewater to be treated enters the clarification tank 1 through the wastewater inlet pipe 6. The central control module controls the chemical dosing system to automatically add flocculants and coagulants based on the wastewater flow rate and turbidity data. The wastewater and chemicals enter the dynamic flocculation zone 4, where the drive motor 1402 drives the three-layer blades to rotate. The dispersing blade 901 quickly disperses the chemicals and wastewater, the mixing blade 902 achieves deep mixing, and the flocculation blade 904 promotes floc aggregation. With the cooperation of the turbulence ribs 905, large-particle-size dense flocs are formed. Wastewater containing large-diameter flocs enters the multi-stage settling zone 3 and flows sequentially through three inclined settling plates 1001: the first settling plate 1001 intercepts large-diameter flocs, the second settling plate 1001 intercepts medium-diameter flocs, and the third settling plate 1001 intercepts small-diameter flocs; the flocs settle to the sludge collection trough 1002 under gravity and fall into the sludge thickening zone 2 through the sludge guide pipe 1003; through the stepped settling design, the settling path of the flocs is greatly extended, improving the separation efficiency; The drive motor 1402 drives the annular cleaning frame 1101 to rotate synchronously. The elastic cleaning brush 1109 cleans the sludge layer on the surface of the settling plate 1001 in real time. The scraper 1114 scrapes off the sludge attached to the inner wall of the clarification tank 1. The cleaned sludge falls into the sludge concentration zone 2 with the water flow, realizing the continuous self-cleaning of the equipment and avoiding scaling and clogging. After settling, the sludge enters the sludge thickening zone 2. The spiral thickening paddle 1202 in the thickening cone 1201 rotates and squeezes, increasing the sludge concentration. Part of the thickened sludge is returned to the dynamic flocculation zone 4 through the return pipe 1203 to serve as flocculation nuclei and promote the growth of new flocs. The remaining sludge is discharged through the sludge discharge pipe 8, without the need for additional thickening equipment. After multiple stages of sedimentation, the clean water enters the clean water collection area 5. The baffle plate 1304 intercepts the small flocs that have not settled. The clean water flows into the annular water collection tank 1301 through the water collection hole 1303 and is finally discharged through the clean water outlet pipe 7.
