[0031] Reference Figure 1 and Figure 2 In some embodiments, the cross-section of the feeding chamber 1 is a cube, and its interior is divided into a wastewater feeding chamber 12, a waste acid feeding chamber 13, a waste alkali feeding chamber 14, and a flocculant feeding chamber 15 by multiple first partitions 11 placed along two diagonal corners. The wastewater feeding chamber 12, the waste acid feeding chamber 13, the waste alkali feeding chamber 14, and the flocculant feeding chamber 15 are each provided with a feeding port at the top and a feeding port at the bottom. For ease of description, the feeding port of the wastewater feeding chamber is denoted as 121, and the feeding port of the wastewater feeding chamber is denoted as 122. The feeding port of the waste acid feeding chamber is denoted as 131, and the feeding port of the waste acid feeding chamber is denoted as 132. The feeding port of the waste alkali feeding chamber is denoted as 141, and the feeding port of the waste acid feeding chamber is denoted as 142. The feeding port of the flocculant feeding chamber is denoted as 151, and the feeding port of the flocculant feeding chamber is denoted as 152.
[0032] The wastewater dosing chamber's feed port 121, waste acid dosing chamber's feed port 131, waste alkali dosing chamber's feed port 141, and flocculant dosing chamber's feed port 151 are all circular holes. The wastewater dosing chamber's feed port 122, waste acid dosing chamber's feed port 132, waste acid dosing chamber's feed port 142, and flocculant dosing chamber's feed port 152 are all located at the intersection of the partitions and are all quarter-circular holes, forming a single circular hole.
[0033] A dosing pipe 16 is provided at the dosing port. Its upper portion is connected to the dosing port, and its lower portion extends into the sedimentation chamber 2 and into its center. The wastewater dosing chamber's dosing port 122 is directly connected to the dosing pipe 16. The dosing ports 132, 142, and 152 of the waste acid dosing chamber are each equipped with a second valve (not shown). A pH detector 17 is provided at the outlet of the dosing pipe 16.
[0034] A vertical filter screen 18 is provided at the edge of the wastewater addition chamber's addition port 122 , and its height is the same as the wastewater addition chamber 12 . Thus, the filter screen 18 can isolate the wastewater addition chamber's addition port 122 from the wastewater addition chamber 12 , thereby preventing large particles of suspended matter from entering the sedimentation chamber 2 .
[0035] Reference Figure 3 In some embodiments, the sedimentation chamber 2 is formed by splicing an upper cylindrical body and a lower hemispherical body. The upper edge of the sedimentation chamber 2 is connected to the inner wall of the photocatalytic reaction chamber 3 via a second partition 21. A mud discharge port 22 is provided at the bottom of the sedimentation chamber 2, and a mud discharge pipe 23 is provided at the mud discharge port 22. The upper portion of the mud discharge pipe 23 is connected to the outer edge of the mud discharge port 22, and the lower portion is connected to the outside of the device. Thus, the sedimentation chamber 2 is fixedly connected to the photocatalytic reaction chamber 3 and isolated from the photocatalytic reaction chamber 3.
[0036] In some embodiments, the stirring assembly 4 includes four scrapers 41 and four sliders 42. The scrapers 41 are fan-shaped, with their bottoms shaped to match the inner wall of the hemisphere. The upper ends of the scrapers 41 are connected to the corresponding sliders 42, and the lower ends are connected to the rotating shaft 7. Specifically, the sliders 42 have a semi-arched longitudinal cross-section and an arc-shaped cross-section. Their length is 1 / 8 the circumference of the hemisphere's mouth, and the four sliders 42 are equidistantly spaced along the circumference.
[0037] In some embodiments, the inner wall of the sedimentation chamber 2 is further provided with four through-holes 24, which are located above the slider 42. A first valve 25 is disposed within the through-hole 24, and a fender 26 is disposed on the outer side of the first valve 25. The fenders 26 include a fan-shaped fender 261 located below the through-hole 24 and semi-arched fenders 262 located on either side of the through-hole 24. The fan-shaped fender 261 has a semi-arched longitudinal section and an arc-shaped cross-section. Therefore, when flocculation and sedimentation begin, the curved structure of the fender surface does not hinder the sedimentation of the flocs. Furthermore, when the flocculation and sedimentation are complete, the fender surface blocks the outflow of the wastewater supernatant through the through-hole 24, effectively separating the supernatant.
[0038] In some embodiments, the device further includes a control unit (not shown), and both the second valve and the first valve 25 are electrically powered valves. Specifically, the control unit is electrically connected to the three second valves, the four first valves 25, and the pH detection device 17. The control unit is capable of receiving the pH value of the wastewater detected by the pH detection device 17, controlling the opening or closing of the corresponding valve among the three second valves, and controlling the opening of the first valve 25 after the wastewater has been allowed to stand in the sedimentation chamber 2, allowing the wastewater to enter the photocatalytic reaction chamber 3, and then controlling the closing of the first valve 25.
[0039] In some embodiments, the photocatalytic reaction chamber 3 is a rectangular parallelepiped with a square cross-section that matches the shape of the loading chamber 1. The upper portion of the photocatalytic reaction chamber 3 is connected to the bottom of the loading chamber 1 via a mortise and tenon structure. Specifically, the bottom of the loading chamber 1 is provided with two rectangular parallelepiped tenons 19, and the upper portion of the photocatalytic reaction chamber 3 is provided with two mortises 31 of equal length to the sides of the device. The mortises 31 mate with the tenons 19, thereby facilitating assembly and disassembly.
[0040] In some embodiments, the outer wall of the photocatalytic reaction chamber 3 is provided with a water inlet box 32 at the upper portion and a water outlet box 33 at the lower portion. The water inlet box 32 is provided with a water inlet outlet 321, and the water outlet box 33 is provided with a water outlet inlet 331. Both the water inlet outlet 321 and the water outlet inlet 331 are in communication with the photocatalytic reaction chamber 3. A third partition 34 is provided in the middle of the water outlet box 33, which is the same length as the water outlet box 33 and has a height of 1 / 3 to 1 / 2 the height of the water outlet box 33.
[0041] In some embodiments, lamps 35 are placed at the four corners of the photocatalytic reaction chamber 3 and are separated from the middle of the photocatalytic reaction chamber 3 by transparent baffles 36 . The transparent baffles 36 can be glass partitions.
[0042] In some embodiments, the photocatalyst is a Cu2WS4 / Bi2WO6 composite photocatalyst. The preparation method of the photocatalyst comprises the following steps:
[0043] Step 1: Preparation of bismuth tungstate:
[0044] 1.1. Dissolve 2 mmol Bi(NO3)3·5H2O in 10 mL EG, 0.5 g CTAB in 10 mL distilled water, and 1 mmol Na2WO4·2H2O in 10 mL distilled water;
[0045] 1.2. Add 10 ml of CTAB aqueous solution to 10 ml of Bi(NO3)3·5H2O solution, stir magnetically for 10 min, and add Na2WO4·2H2O aqueous solution;
[0046] 1.3. Mix the liquids obtained in steps 1.1 and 1.2, and stir for 20 minutes to obtain a precursor suspension;
[0047] 1.4. Transfer the precursor suspension to a sealed autoclave and heat at 180°C for 20 h. After the autoclave is cooled to room temperature, collect the original Bi2WO6 by centrifugation, wash it three times with distilled water and anhydrous ethanol, and then dry it in an oven at 80°C for 6 h.
[0048] Step 2: Prepare Cu2WS4 using CuCl, sodium tungstate and thioacetamide as copper source, tungsten source and sulfur source respectively:
[0049] 2.1. Mix 15 ml of ethanol and 15 ml of distilled water to form solution A.
[0050] 2.2. Dissolve 2 mmol of CuCl, 1 mmol of Na2WO4·2H2O, and 5 mmol of thioacetamide in solution A and stir for 1 h.
[0051] 2.3. After the mixed solution is stirred into a uniform brick-red suspension, it is transferred to a high-pressure reactor and heated in a forced-air oven at 120°C for 24 hours. After the reactor is removed and cooled, the Cu2WS4 is washed and dried to collect the Cu2WS4.
[0052] Step 3: Preparation of Cu2WS4 / Bi2WO6 composite photocatalyst:
[0053] 3.1. Dissolve the Cu2WS4 prepared in step 2 and 2 mmol of bismuth nitrate pentahydrate in 10 ml of ethylene glycol and stir for half an hour to obtain a mixed solution B;
[0054] 3.2. Dissolve 1 mmol of Na2WO4·2H2O and 0.5 g of CTAB in 10 ml of distilled water, respectively, and stir for 10 minutes to obtain a sodium tungstate aqueous solution and a CTAB aqueous solution;
[0055] 3.3. Pour the CTAB aqueous solution into the mixed solution B, stir for 10 minutes, then add the sodium tungstate aqueous solution into the mixed solution and stir for another 20 minutes;
[0056] 3.4. Transfer the mixed solution to a high-pressure reactor and seal it. Move it to a 180-degree forced air oven and heat it for 20 hours. After the high-pressure reactor cools down, collect the composite photocatalyst, wash it with distilled water and anhydrous ethanol, and then dry it in an 80-degree oven for 6 hours to obtain a Cu2WS4 / Bi2WO6 composite photocatalyst.
[0057] Continue to refer to Figures 1 to 3 The working principle of the integrated device for photocatalytic treatment of laboratory wastewater in the embodiment of the present application is as follows:
[0058] Before use, laboratory wastewater should be separated into waste acid, waste alkali and other wastewater.
[0059] Then, the wastewater is added to the wastewater addition chamber 12, the waste acid addition chamber 13, and the waste alkali addition chamber 14 according to the classification. At this time, the wastewater in the wastewater addition chamber 12 is first filtered by the filter 18, and the large particles of suspended matter are trapped in the wastewater addition chamber 12. The remaining wastewater enters the addition pipe 16 through the wastewater addition chamber addition port 122 under the action of gravity, and then enters the sedimentation chamber 2 through the addition pipe 16.
[0060] The wastewater entering the sedimentation chamber 2 is accumulated several times. When the wastewater reaches a specified volume, the motor 6 is started, and the slider 42 and the scraper 41 at the bottom of the sedimentation chamber 2 are driven by the rotating shaft 7 to perform a circular motion in the sedimentation chamber 2. In this way, the slider 42 and the scraper 41 can drive the wastewater in the sedimentation chamber 2 to flow, thereby achieving a stirring effect.
[0061] After the rotating shaft 7 rotates for 5-10 minutes, the pH detection device 17 detects the pH value of the wastewater in real time. When the pH value does not meet the requirements, the control unit controls the corresponding second valve to open, and the corresponding waste acid or waste alkali is added through the waste acid adding chamber 13 or the waste alkali adding chamber 14. The waste acid or waste alkali flows into the adding pipe 16 through the adding port and then into the sedimentation chamber 2. Driven by the rotating shaft 7, the overall pH value in the sedimentation chamber 2 is made uniform.
[0062] When the pH value of the wastewater in the sedimentation chamber 2 reaches the standard and remains stable, the control unit controls the second valve at the flocculant dosing port 152 to open, and flocculant is added from the flocculant dosing chamber. The flocculant also enters the dosing pipe 16 through the flocculant dosing port 152 and finally flows into the sedimentation chamber 2. Under the stirring action of the slider 42, the flocculant and the experimental wastewater are fully mixed.
[0063] After the flocculant and the experimental wastewater are thoroughly mixed, stirring is stopped and the stirred wastewater is allowed to stand overnight. After the flocs have settled and accumulated at the bottom of the sedimentation chamber 2, the first valve 25 in the sedimentation chamber 2 is opened. The flocculated wastewater in the sedimentation chamber 2 flows through the first valve 25 into the photocatalytic reaction chamber 3. The flocs at the bottom are blocked by the slider 42 in the sedimentation chamber 2 and the fenders 26 on three sides of the first valve 25, thereby separating the flocs from the wastewater. Simultaneously, the flocs at the bottom of the sedimentation chamber 2 and a small amount of wastewater flow through the mud discharge port 22 at the bottom of the sedimentation tank 2 into the mud discharge pipe 23 and are discharged.
[0064] After the wastewater enters the photocatalytic reaction chamber 3 from the sedimentation chamber 2, the first valve 25 in the sedimentation chamber 2 is closed, and the photocatalytic reaction begins. It should be noted that at this point, if new organic wastewater is added, it can be added separately through the water inlet tank 32 and enter the photocatalytic reaction chamber 3. Then, the motor 6 is turned on again, and the photocatalyst plate 31, driven by the rotating shaft 7, rotates in the wastewater, stirring it. At the same time, under the action of light, the wastewater contacts the photocatalyst on the photocatalyst plate 31, generating a photocatalytic reaction, thereby eliminating the organic matter in the wastewater.
[0065] It should be noted that at night or in areas with insufficient lighting, the lamps 35 located at the four corners can be turned on to provide sufficient light energy for the reaction. The treated water can then enter the outlet tank 33 through the outlet tank inlet 331. The third baffle 34 in the outlet tank 33 can isolate some flocculants and other debris, achieving further purification.
[0066] On the other hand, an embodiment of the present application further provides a photocatalytic treatment method based on the above-mentioned integrated device for photocatalytic treatment of laboratory wastewater, comprising the following steps:
[0067] Step 1: Add the wastewater in the laboratory into the wastewater addition chamber 12, the waste acid addition chamber 13 and the waste alkali addition chamber 14 according to the classification;
[0068] Step 2: After the wastewater enters the sedimentation chamber 2 and reaches the preset capacity, start the motor 6 and stir for 5-10 minutes;
[0069] Step 3: The control unit controls the pH detection device 17 to perform real-time detection on the pH value of the stirred wastewater. If the pH value meets the requirements, the process proceeds to step 4. If the pH value does not meet the requirements, the control unit controls the second valve in the waste acid addition chamber 13 or the waste alkali addition chamber 14 to open, and continues to add wastewater from the waste acid addition chamber 13 or the waste alkali addition chamber 14 and stir until the pH value of the wastewater meets the requirements, and then proceeds to step 4.
[0070] Step 4: When the pH value of the wastewater reaches the standard and remains stable, the control unit controls the second valve in the flocculant addition chamber 15 to open, and adds the flocculant into the sedimentation chamber 2 through the flocculant addition chamber 15, and then starts the motor 6 again;
[0071] Step 5: After the flocculant and the experimental wastewater are fully mixed, the motor 6 is turned off, and the wastewater obtained in step 4 is allowed to stand to obtain flocculated wastewater, and the first valve is opened to allow the flocculated wastewater to enter the photocatalytic reaction chamber 3;
[0072] Step 6: Close the first valve and restart the motor 6. The photocatalyst plate 31 rotates in the flocculated wastewater driven by the rotating shaft 7 to stir the wastewater. At the same time, the flocculated wastewater contacts the photocatalyst on the photocatalyst plate 31 under the action of light to produce a photocatalytic reaction, thereby eliminating organic matter in the wastewater.
