Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] The present invention relates to the technical field of water treatment, in particular to the technical field of photocatalytic water treatment using a magnetic photocatalyst. Background Art
[0002] Algal pollution caused by algal blooms not only damages the aquatic environment, reducing water clarity and dissolved oxygen concentration, causing odor and the death of aquatic organisms, diminishing water sensory properties, and disrupting the aquatic ecosystem, but also has numerous negative impacts on water treatment processes, such as increased coagulant consumption, loosening floc structure and density, impairing sedimentation efficiency, increasing filter load, causing severe membrane fouling, and generating disinfection byproducts. Therefore, the effective prevention and control of algal pollution is a key issue in water environmental management.
[0003] Traditional treatment methods for algae-containing water can be categorized as chemical, physical, and biological. Chemical methods primarily utilize chemicals to remove algae from water. While they offer the advantage of rapid algae removal, they can also lead to the development of microbial resistance and secondary pollution and toxic side effects, resulting in certain limitations. Physical methods are the core of most water treatment processes and are often combined with chemical methods. Traditional physical treatment technologies for algae-containing water include direct filtration, flotation, adsorption, microelectrolysis, ultrasonic disruption, and ultraviolet irradiation. While physical methods do not cause secondary pollution, they can lead to algal cell disruption and the release of AOM. Furthermore, they are labor-intensive, time-consuming, and expensive, making them suitable only for small or localized areas of large water bodies. Biological methods primarily include biofilm treatment, microbial algae removal, aquatic animal control, and aquatic plant control. Biological methods are generally used in the early stages of algae outbreaks, but they are still in their early stages of development. Their long algae removal cycles, technical and management challenges, and significant capital investment make them difficult to implement on a large scale in the short term.
[0004] With the advancement of high-tech and materials science, new pollution removal technologies and materials are constantly being developed and innovated. Photocatalytic oxidation technology and photocatalytic materials, due to their environmentally friendly and energy-saving features, controllable operating conditions, mild reaction conditions, and strong ability to oxidize organic matter, have been widely researched and applied. They have also provided new approaches for oxidative algae removal. Using photocatalytic technology as a pre-oxidation method to enhance coagulation not only significantly improves algae removal effectiveness but also reduces coagulant dosage, making it a highly researchable algae removal technology.
[0005] However, practical applications of photocatalytic water treatment technology often face a challenge: the separation and recovery of photocatalyst powder. To address this issue, some existing technologies have proposed the following two approaches: 1) Composite photocatalysts with bulk materials to prepare bulk-material-loaded photocatalytic materials. Bulk materials that can serve as substrates include two categories: porous materials with high surface areas, such as carbon nanotubes, activated carbon, and zeolites; and surface-reticulated materials, such as glass, ceramics, or fibers. However, the effects of factors such as pH, temperature, and photocatalyst dosage on the kinetic properties of photocatalyst loading on porous materials are not fully understood. Furthermore, the resulting photocatalyst films exhibit weaknesses such as detachment and cracking. 2) Composite photocatalysts with magnetic materials to prepare magnetic photocatalytic materials. For example, TiO2 can be directly loaded onto magnetic materials, or a photochemically inert inorganic material can be coated onto a magnetic material, followed by TiO2 coating the inert material to prepare a magnetic photocatalyst. While these approaches can address the difficulty of photocatalyst separation to some extent, their actual water treatment efficiency and catalyst recovery rates remain low. Summary of the Invention
[0006] The purpose of the present invention is to propose a method and system for treating algae-containing water sources, which can magnetically separate sludge and a photocatalyst composited with a magnetic material (magnetic photocatalyst), and self-purify and reflux the separated magnetic photocatalyst to achieve the recycling of the magnetic photocatalyst. It can not only save the dosage of the photocatalyst; it can also promote the coagulation effect in the subsequent process, save the dosage of the coagulant, and improve the water quality after sedimentation.
[0007] The present invention first provides the following technical solutions:
[0008] A water treatment system for an algae-containing water source based on high-gradient magnetic separation comprises: a photocatalytic pool (1) connected to an algae-containing water source (W) through an inlet pipe and performing a photocatalytic reaction on the algae-containing water source (W), a mixing pool (2), a flocculation pool (3), a sedimentation pool (4), a sludge storage pool (5), a sludge regulating pool (7), the high-gradient magnetic cyclonic separation device (9) connected to the sludge regulating pool (7) through the inlet pipe (904), and a purification pool (10) connected to the high-gradient magnetic cyclonic separation device (9) through the liquid outlet pipe (903) and purifying the separated magnetic photocatalyst; the sludge regulating pool (7) and the sludge outlet pipe (902) of the high-gradient magnetic cyclonic separation device (9) are respectively connected to a sludge post-treatment unit (8) for performing sludge post-treatment; the inlet pipe is also connected to the purification pool and a dosing tank (103) for adding a magnetic photocatalyst; wherein the high-gradient magnetic cyclonic separation device (9) comprises: a cyclonic separation unit (10) for performing a sludge post-treatment; The invention relates to a device and an electromagnetic field generating device, wherein the cyclone separator comprises a cyclone cylinder (901) for performing cyclone separation, a sludge outlet pipe (902) located at the bottom of the cyclone cylinder (901) for discharging separated sludge, a liquid outlet pipe (903) located at the top of the cyclone cylinder (901) for discharging separated liquid, an inlet pipe (904) located at one side of the upper part of the cyclone cylinder (901) for the entry of materials to be separated, and a backwash pump (905) located at one side of the lower part of the cyclone cylinder (901) for connecting to the backwash pump. 106) is connected to a backwash pipe (905), the sludge outlet pipe (902), the liquid outlet pipe (903), the inlet pipe (904), and the backwash pipe (905) are all connected to the cyclone cylinder (901), and the electromagnetic field generating device (906) includes an energized solenoid containing core iron arranged in the cyclone cylinder (901), and the arrangement method enables the electromagnetic field generating device to generate a magnetic field strength of 80,000-250,000 amperes / meter.

This uniform magnetic field changes, forming a region near its surface with a non-uniform magnetic field whose gradient varies with distance, known as a high-gradient magnetic field. This high-gradient magnetic field separates the water, while the magnetic photocatalyst and its associated flocculant are trapped through centrifugation and magnetic adsorption.
