Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This invention belongs to the field of environmental engineering and water treatment, and relates to a filtration and purification system, specifically a mobile drilling rig wastewater purification system. Background Technology
[0002] Currently, underground drilling in coal mines is widely used for coalbed methane extraction, water exploration and drainage, grouting modification, resource exploration and rescue drilling. For relatively hard coal seams and rock formations, water drilling technology is usually used, which requires water as a flushing medium to carry away drill cuttings and cool the drill bit. Therefore, during underground drilling in coal mines, on the one hand, continuous water supply to the drill bit is required, and on the other hand, wastewater rich in drill cuttings and suspended solids is generated. At present, this wastewater is collected and then simply treated through a vibrating screen and a coagulation sedimentation tank before being reused. The wastewater treatment method has the following problems: 1) The coagulation sedimentation process requires the addition of chemicals and has requirements for sedimentation time, which cannot meet the timeliness requirements of underground drilling treatment; 2) The quality of the produced water is poor, causing wear and corrosion to the return pump and equipment, shortening its service life; 3) The water replenishment demand is large, which is not conducive to the efficient utilization of mine water resources, especially for arid and water-scarce mines, where the demand for fresh water replenishment is large, while the wastewater reuse rate is low, indirectly reducing the efficiency of underground production and increasing mining costs; 4) When the underground water supply is limited or difficult, it is easy to cause local production stoppages.

[0033] The specific content of the present invention will be further explained in detail below with reference to the embodiments. Detailed Implementation
[0034] It should be noted that, unless otherwise specified, all components in this invention are those known in the art.
[0035] The following are specific embodiments of the present invention. It should be noted that the present invention is not limited to the following specific embodiments. All equivalent modifications made based on the technical solutions of this application fall within the protection scope of the present invention.
[0036] This invention provides a mobile drilling rig wastewater purification system, such as... Figures 1 to 6 As shown, it includes a buffer sedimentation tank 1, a filter tank 2 and a reclaimed water tank 3; a wastewater inlet pipe 4 is provided on one side of the top of the buffer sedimentation tank 1, and a water distribution pump 5 is provided on the wastewater inlet pipe 4; an overflow pipe 6 is provided on the upper part of the other side of the buffer sedimentation tank 1, and the end of the overflow pipe 6 extends into the top of the filter tank 2.
[0037] A ceramic ultrafiltration membrane support tube 9 is installed inside the filter tank 2. An outlet 10 is opened in the middle of the top of the ceramic ultrafiltration membrane support tube 9. The two ends of the return water pipe 7 extend into the outlet 10 and the return water tank 3, respectively, and a negative pressure suction pump 8 is installed on the return water pipe 7. Multiple negative pressure suction pipes 11 are installed at the bottom of the ceramic ultrafiltration membrane support tube 9 and are connected to the ceramic ultrafiltration membrane support tube 9. The negative pressure suction pipes 11 form multiple polygons that are coaxially distributed in the radial direction. Each negative pressure suction pipe 11 has an ultrafiltration membrane 12 connected to it at its bottom.
[0038] It also includes a spray structure 13, which includes two pairs of first high-pressure nozzles 1301 symmetrically arranged between the inner wall of the filter tank 2 and the ultrafiltration membrane 12, and two second annular high-pressure nozzles 1302 of unequal diameter arranged at the bottom of the support frame 17. The two second annular high-pressure nozzles 1302 are coaxially arranged and connected through a branch high-pressure nozzle 1305. The tops of the two pairs of first high-pressure nozzles 1301 are respectively connected to the radially outer second annular high-pressure nozzles 1302, and the bottoms of one pair of first high-pressure nozzles 1301 are connected through a second high-pressure branch nozzle 1306. A third high-pressure nozzle 1307 is arranged at the axial center of the connecting pipe 1306. The third high-pressure nozzle 1307 is parallel to the first high-pressure nozzles 1301, and its top end does not exceed the top end of the ultrafiltration membrane 12.
[0039] The second annular high-pressure nozzle 1302 is also connected to a water inlet pipe 1303, the end of which extends into the recycled water tank 3, and a water pump 1304 is installed on the water inlet pipe 1303.
[0040] Both the bottom of the buffer sedimentation tank 1 and the filter tank 2 are equipped with filter press coal slime conveying pipes 15; the bottom of the recycled water tank 3 is equipped with a drilling rig production water distribution pipe 16.
[0041] In the above technical solution, by setting up a buffer sedimentation tank 1, a filter tank 2, and a reclaimed water tank 3 that can move while drilling, the wastewater is sedimented and filtered, which shortens the process flow to the greatest extent compared with the wastewater treatment of conventional drilling rigs. In addition, by setting up ultrafiltration membrane sheets 12 arranged in multiple polygons and negative pressure suction pipes 11 in the filter tank 2, the wastewater is purified. The purification process does not require the addition of coagulants and flocculants, which not only improves the water quality and makes it reusable, but also reduces the water treatment cost, thus solving the technical problems of low water resource utilization and high energy consumption in coal mines in the prior art.
[0042] Secondly, the spray system 13 can promptly flush the coal sludge filtered out on the ultrafiltration membrane 12, ensuring that there is no accumulation of pollutants on the ultrafiltration membrane 12, resulting in high membrane flux recovery rate, good regenerability, and a lifespan of over 10 years for the ultrafiltration membrane 12. Furthermore, the fully automatic online cleaning system reduces the cleaning frequency.
[0043] In the filtration tank, by activating the negative pressure suction pump 8, the wastewater in the filtration tank 2 is filtered through the ultrafiltration membrane 12, causing impurities to be filtered to the outside of the ultrafiltration membrane 12. The filtered water then enters the negative pressure suction pipe 11 through the pipes on both sides of the ultrafiltration membrane 12 (see reference). Figure 6 The water then enters the ceramic ultrafiltration membrane support tube 9, then enters the return water pipe 7 from the outlet 10, and finally enters the recycled water tank 3 for reuse.
[0044] Specifically, a drive motor 18 is provided on the support frame 17, the output shaft of the drive motor 18 is set downward and a drive gear 19 is provided on the output shaft; a driven gear 20 is fixed in the middle of the top of the ceramic ultrafiltration membrane support tube 9, and the driven gear 20 meshes with the drive gear 19.
[0045] In the above technical solution, the ultrafiltration membrane is driven to rotate by a drive motor during the filtration process. This cross-flow and flushing self-cleaning mode makes the system extremely resistant to fouling, and the membrane flux can be restored to its initial level (60-80 L / m³) through periodic flushing. 2 ·h).
[0046] Furthermore, the aforementioned electrical components consist only of four parts: a water distribution pump, a drive motor, a negative pressure suction pump, and a water pump. The system operating pressure is <0.1MPa, and the power consumption per ton of water is <0.35kWh. Meanwhile, pilot-scale tests conducted at a mine in Inner Mongolia show that a membrane operating pressure of 0.012MPa to 0.08MPa can ensure a permeate flux of 60–85 L / m³. 2 •h, the actual measured power consumption per ton of water is <0.35kwh.
[0047] Specifically, the filtration tank 2 includes a purification tank 201 and a sludge hopper 202 arranged from top to bottom.
[0048] Specifically, the end of the filter press coal slime conveying pipe 15 is connected to a coal slime filter system for timely conveying of the settled coal slime.
[0049] Specifically, the ultrafiltration membrane 12 is a flat-panel ceramic ultrafiltration membrane.
[0050] Specifically, both the top inner walls of the buffer sedimentation tank 1 and the filter tank 2 are equipped with water collection troughs 21 for buffering and preventing the water flow from being too rapid, which would cause the settled coal sludge to rise.
[0051] Specifically, it also includes an external PLC control system, which is electrically connected to the water distribution pump 5, the negative pressure suction pump 8, the water pump 1304, and the drive motor 18. This system is used to monitor the influent water quality in real time and adjust key parameters such as the rotary motor speed, the negative pressure suction pump pressure, and the high-pressure flushing cycle accordingly, ensuring the continuous and stable operation of the system.
[0052] Specifically, the nozzles 14 on the first high-pressure nozzle 1301, the second annular high-pressure nozzle 1302, the branch high-pressure nozzle 1305, and the third high-pressure nozzle 1307 are evenly spaced.
[0053] In the above technical solution, the nozzles 14 on the second annular high-pressure nozzle 1302 and the branch high-pressure nozzle 1305 are located at the bottom, the nozzles 14 on the first high-pressure nozzle 1301 are located on the side close to the ultrafiltration membrane 12, and the nozzles 14 on the third high-pressure nozzle 1307 are uniformly distributed around its circumference.
