[0002] Coagulation and sedimentation is a relatively mature method in wastewater treatment. The treatment process primarily consists of coagulation, flocculation, and sedimentation. By adding appropriate reagents, the colloidal double layer in the water is compressed and destabilized during the coagulation phase, forming smaller particles. During the flocculation phase, the particles continue to aggregate, hydrolyze, and condense to form polymers, which then undergo adsorption and bridging to form larger flocs. Finally, under certain sedimentation conditions, this technology is removed. Compared to other technologies, this technology offers simpler equipment, better treatment results, shorter residence times, and a smaller footprint.

[0003] The current macroscopic water flow direction of coagulation and sedimentation sewage treatment is mostly linear, that is, the coagulation zone and flocculation zone are arranged in sequence, and the sedimentation zone is arranged after the flocculation zone or set up separately.

[0024] Furthermore, the angle between the arc plate and the circular outer wall of the coagulation zone 1 is 15°, the guide plate 202 is a five-sixths arc, and the baffle 203 and the outer wall 205 of the flocculation zone are perpendicular to each other.

[0025] Furthermore, a gap is left at the bottom of the outer wall 205 of the flocculation zone, and the sedimentation zone 3 is connected to the second flocculation zone 204 through the gap.

[0026] Furthermore, the water inlet pipe 103 is tangent to the circular outer wall of the coagulation zone 1 , and the stirring water flow direction of the agitator 101 is countercurrent to the tangential water inlet direction.

[0027] Furthermore, the sedimentation area 3 is a five-sixths arc structure, and the other one-sixth arc is the water outlet area 303; the inclined tube sedimentation area 301 is assembled from fan-shaped modules with a central angle of 60°, and there are six fan-shaped modules, five of which correspond to the five-sixths arc settings of the sedimentation area 3, and the other fan-shaped module is set in the water outlet area 303 for standby.

[0028] Furthermore, the inclined tube sedimentation zone 301 uses a regular hexagonal inclined tube with an inclination angle of 60°.

[0029] Furthermore, a buffer zone 302 is provided below the inclined tube sedimentation zone 301 , and the sludge hopper 304 is provided at the bottom of the buffer zone 302 . The sludge hopper 304 is a funnel-shaped structure.

[0030] Furthermore, a circulation pump 305 is provided outside the sedimentation zone 3 , one end of the circulation pump 305 is communicated with the buffer zone 302 , and the other end of the circulation pump 305 is communicated with the coagulation zone 1 .

[0031] Furthermore, the coagulation zone 1 and the flocculation zone 2 are respectively provided with a coagulant dosing pipe and a flocculant dosing pipe.

[0032] Working Principle: Sewage enters coagulation zone 1 from the bottom through water inlet pipe 103 along the tangent of the coagulation zone's circular wall. Motor 102 drives agitator 101, which stirs the sewage, ensuring a thorough reaction with the coagulant added via the coagulant dosing pipe. Sewage then enters flocculation zone 2 through diversion holes 104 at the top, first entering first flocculation zone 201. The sewage in flocculation zone 2 moves in a circular motion, with the starting end of guide plate 202 forming a 15° angle with the tangent of the outer cylindrical wall of coagulation zone 1. Upon encountering baffle 203, the sewage enters second flocculation zone 204 from first flocculation zone 201. The outer wall 205 of the flocculation zone shares a common wall with sedimentation zone 3, allowing the sewage to enter sedimentation zone 3 evenly through the gap at the bottom of the outer wall 205. Settling zone 3 includes an inclined tube settling zone 301, which consists of six sector-shaped modules with a central angle of 60°. These modules can be installed and removed as a whole. The settling zone is in the form of a 5 / 6 ring, with five sector-shaped modules installed. The sector corresponding to the remaining 1 / 6 of the circle in settling zone 3 serves as the outlet zone 303, with the remaining sector-shaped module also provided as a backup. The inclined tubes are hexagonal in shape and have a 60° inclination angle. A buffer zone is provided below the inclined tube settling zone 301, allowing water to enter the outlet zone 303 from both ends of the individually placed sector-shaped modules.

[0033] The separately placed fan-shaped modules can replace the blocked modules during operation, giving the blocked modules enough time to be cleaned. The sludge hopper 304 collects the settled flocs in the buffer zone 302. Part of the settled flocs is discharged to the sludge treatment system outside the device, and part is sent to the coagulation zone 1 through the circulation pump 305.

[0034] The main rotational motion driven by agitator 101 in coagulation zone 1 is in the same direction as the water flow in first flocculation zone 201 of flocculation zone 2. The guide plate 202 forms a certain angle with the tangent of the outer wall of coagulation zone 1, which facilitates the flocculation swirl. This saves on agitation equipment in flocculation zone 2 and fully utilizes the hydraulic agitation energy of coagulation zone 1 to form flocs in contact with the flocculant, which is added to flocculation zone 2 via a dosing pipe.

[0035] While embodiments of the present invention have been shown and described, it will be appreciated by those skilled in the art that various changes, modifications, substitutions, and variations may be made to these embodiments without departing from the principles and spirit of the invention, and that the scope of the invention is defined by the appended claims and their equivalents.
