[0002] With the continuous development of society and the economy, the demand for water resources in industrial production and daily life is increasing. How to conserve precious water resources while ensuring water quality has become a growing issue. Under existing technical conditions, common water filtration equipment usually uses diatomaceous earth or perlite as the filter medium. After a period of use, large amounts of clean water must be used for backwashing to ensure the stability of the filter equipment performance. Therefore, there are common problems such as the inability to recycle the diatomaceous earth or perlite and the high consumption of clean water during backwashing. Summary of the Invention

[0025] The present invention will be described in detail below with reference to the accompanying drawings and in conjunction with embodiments.
[0026] like Figure 1-3 As shown, a medium recovery filter includes a vertical barrel filter 7; a vertically arranged wedge-shaped filter rod is provided in the vertical barrel filter 7; the water inlet at the bottom of the vertical barrel filter 7 and the water outlet at the top of the vertical barrel filter 7 are respectively connected to the left and right ends of the four-way reversing valve 6; the upper end of the four-way reversing valve 6 is connected to the outlet valve 1, the lower end of the four-way reversing valve 6 is connected to the outlet of the circulating water pump 5, and the water inlet of the circulating water pump 5 is connected to the raw water valve 3; the water inlet of the circulating water pump 5 is connected to one end of the circulating valve 2, and the other end of the circulating valve 2 is connected to the upper end of the four-way reversing valve 6; a spiral pusher 11 is provided at the bottom of the vertical barrel filter 7, and a slag discharge valve 12 cooperating with the spiral pusher 11 is provided at the bottom of the vertical barrel filter 7.
[0027] like Figure 2-3 As shown, a drain valve 10 is provided at the bottom of the vertical barrel filter 7.
[0028] In this embodiment, the media recovery filter can implement the following functional processes:
[0029] Filtering function:
[0030] The wastewater containing diatomaceous earth or perlite on the outside is connected to the raw water valve 3, the circulation valve 2 is closed, and the four-way reversing valve 6 is set in the filtering state. The lower interface of the four-way reversing valve 6 is connected to the left interface, and the upper interface is connected to the right interface. The circulation valve 2 is opened. At this time, the wastewater is pushed by the circulation valve 2 and enters the bottom water inlet of the vertical barrel filter 7 through the four-way reversing valve 6. The wastewater containing diatomaceous earth or perlite forms a filter membrane on the surface of the wedge-shaped filter rod in the vertical barrel filter 7. The diatomaceous earth or perlite adheres to the surface of the wedge-shaped filter rod. The turbidity of the filtered water is less than 0.3NTU. The filtered clean water enters the inside of the wedge-shaped filter rod and is discharged through the water outlet at the top of the vertical barrel filter 7. It enters the four-way reversing valve 6 and is finally discharged through the outlet valve 1 and is reused as backwash water for a common multi-media filter.
[0031] During the operation of the filtering function, if the outlet valve 1 is closed and the circulation valve 2 is opened, the internal circulation operation mode of the medium recovery filter can be realized.
[0032] Media recovery function:
[0033] The media recovery filter is in a stationary state for 4 hours. During this period, the diatomaceous earth or perlite medium attached to the surface of the wedge-shaped filter rod in the vertical barrel filter 7 will fall off by itself and be deposited in the hopper of the spiral pusher 11 at the bottom of the vertical barrel filter 7. At this time, the drain valve 10 is opened to drain the water in the vertical barrel filter 7, and the slag discharge valve 12 is further opened, and the spiral pusher 11 is started to discharge the deposited diatomaceous earth or perlite medium to complete the media recovery.
[0034] Flushing function:
[0035] The external flushing water is connected to the raw water valve 3, the circulation valve 2 is closed, and the four-way reversing valve 6 is set in the flushing state. The lower interface of the four-way reversing valve 6 is connected to the right interface, and the upper interface is connected to the left interface. The circulation valve 2 is opened. At this time, the flushing water flows in the opposite direction, enters through the water outlet at the top of the vertical barrel filter 7, flushes the wedge-shaped filter rod from the inside out, and is discharged from the water inlet at the bottom of the vertical barrel filter 7, passes through the four-way reversing valve 6, and finally is discharged from the water outlet valve 1 to realize the internal flushing of the media recovery filter.
[0036] like Figure 1-2 As shown, there are multiple vertical barrel filters 7, and the top water outlets of all vertical barrel filters 7 are connected, and the bottom water inlets of all vertical barrel filters 7 are connected.
[0037] like Figure 1 As shown, the water outlet of the raw water valve 3 is connected to the water inlet of the circulating water pump 5 through the primary filter 4.
[0038] In this embodiment, the primary filter 4 can pre-filter large solid particles in the wastewater.
[0039] like Figure 1-2 As shown, the water inlet of the circulating water pump 5 is connected to the dosing barrel 8.
[0040] In this embodiment, the vertical barrel filter 7 may become clogged when the medium recovery filter is working for a long time, which reduces the working efficiency. At this time, sodium hypochlorite solution can be added into the dosing barrel 8 to clean the dirt attached to the vertical barrel filter 7 and discharge it.
[0041] like Figure 2-3 As shown, the control end of the four-way reversing valve 6 , the control end of the spiral pusher 11 and the control end of the circulating water pump 5 are respectively connected to the control cabinet 9 .
[0042] The above are only preferred embodiments of the present invention and are not intended to limit the present invention. Any modifications, equivalent replacements, improvements, etc. made within the spirit and principles of the present invention should be included in the scope of protection of the present invention.
