Description

Technical Field

[0001] This application relates to the field of ecological governance, and in particular to a water purification method applicable to plain water network areas. Background Technology

[0002] In recent years, the trend of water pollution and water ecology damage in various parts of my country has not been effectively curbed. In particular, the water bodies in the canals of the plain water network area are affected by the obstruction of sluice gates and dams. During the dry season, the hydrodynamic conditions are poor and the water flow speed is slowed down, resulting in a decrease in dissolved oxygen in the canal water and the accumulation of pollutants such as nitrogen and phosphorus. This makes the canals prone to eutrophication and abnormal proliferation of blue-green algae.

[0003] The general characteristics of water bodies in canals controlled by sluice gates and dams in plain water networks are as follows: (1) The hydrodynamic conditions vary significantly at different times. During the dry season, the water bodies in the canals are controlled by sluice gates and dams and are mostly in a static state. During the wet season, the water bodies in the canals are in a dynamic state and the flow velocity is relatively fast. (2) The dissolved oxygen content of the water bodies varies significantly. During the dry season, the dissolved oxygen content of the water bodies is low (generally 1-3 mg / L), and aerobic microorganisms cannot grow and reproduce normally. During the wet season, the dissolved oxygen content of the water bodies increases significantly (generally higher than 7 mg / L). (3) The water quality is mostly Class V or worse, mainly manifested by excessive nitrogen and phosphorus nutrients. (4) The canals are hardened, making it difficult for microorganisms to attach. The water bodies have poor self-purification ability and weak self-recovery ability.

[0004] The main causes of water pollution in the plain water network area are: (1) agricultural non-point source runoff pollution; (2) pollution caused by excessive manure and feed in fish and shrimp farming; (3) hardening of channels makes it difficult for microorganisms to attach, aquatic plants degrade, etc., and the water body has poor self-recovery ability.

[0005] Current methods for purifying polluted water bodies in canals of plain water network areas suffer from the following problems: ① Large construction projects and land occupation are required, and applicable conditions are quite stringent; ② The extensive deployment of aquatic plants and microbial carrier materials in the water body hinders flood control during the high-water season; ③ The growth and reproduction of aquatic plants are greatly affected by water temperature, transparency, and water quality, making it difficult to achieve efficient reduction of nutrients in the water body and increasing operation and maintenance costs. Therefore, there is currently a lack of precise treatment technologies tailored to the pollution characteristics of canals in plain water network areas. It is urgent to develop appropriate treatment methods based on the hydrodynamic conditions and water pollution characteristics of canals in plain water network areas to efficiently purify polluted water bodies. Summary of the Invention

[0006] This application provides a water purification method applicable to plain water network areas. Addressing the differences in hydrodynamic conditions and water pollution during dry and wet seasons, a first biological absorption plate, primarily composed of anaerobic microorganisms, is installed inside the channel during the dry season; and a second biological absorption plate, primarily composed of aerobic microorganisms, is installed on the channel slope during the wet season. This method efficiently purifies polluted water in the channels of plain water network areas, achieving multiple objectives such as efficient reduction of water nutrients, ecological restoration, and long-term maintenance of water quality.

[0007] The technical solution of this application is:

[0008] A water purification method suitable for plain water network areas includes the following steps:

[0009] S1, to investigate and analyze the water bodies in the canals of the plain water network area, and to obtain the hydrodynamic conditions and water pollution characteristics of the water bodies;

[0010] S2, based on the hydrodynamic conditions of the water body and the characteristics of water pollution, select different characteristic degrading microorganisms and immobilize them on the first biological digestion plate and the second biological digestion plate respectively;

[0011] S3. During the dry season, the water in the channel is controlled by the sluice gate and is mostly in a static state with low dissolved oxygen content and high ammonia nitrogen concentration. Therefore, multiple first biological absorption plates mainly composed of anaerobic or facultative anaerobic bacteria are arranged in the inner cavity of the channel. During the wet season, the sluice gate is open, the water flow is faster, the dissolved oxygen content is higher, and the nitrate nitrogen concentration is higher. Therefore, multiple second biological absorption plates mainly composed of aerobic and facultative aerobic bacteria are arranged on the slopes on both sides of the channel.

[0012] S4. In step S4, the first biological digestion plate or the second biological digestion plate is regularly managed and maintained. Every 4-6 months, the aging of the biofilm, the shedding of the packing material, and the damage to the ecological net that occur during the purification process are replaced, repaired, and maintained to ensure the long-term maintenance of water quality.

[0013] As a technical solution of this application, in step S1, the type of channel, water flow velocity, water depth and width-to-depth ratio of the channel in the plain water network area are analyzed and determined through surveys, visits and field observations; the spatiotemporal distribution characteristics of nutrients are determined by collecting and analyzing water and bottom sediment in different periods and areas of the channel, and the spatiotemporal distribution characteristics of nutrients include the types, forms and concentrations of nutrients.

[0014] As one technical solution of this application, in step S2, the characteristic degrading microorganisms are selected from one or more of the following: anaerobic bacteria (including methanogens, sulfate-reducing bacteria, etc.), aerobic bacteria (including nitrifying bacteria, ammonifying bacteria, etc.), and facultative anaerobic bacteria (including denitrifying bacteria, yeast, etc.). Furthermore, the first and second biological treatment plates are respectively immersed in a microbial agent solution and pre-coated with biofilms, and the water is purified through the biofilms immobilized on the first and second biological treatment plates.

[0015] As one technical solution of this application, in step S3, during the dry season, multiple first biological absorption plates are arranged sequentially and spaced apart along the length of the channel in the inner cavity of the channel, with each first biological absorption plate fixed to its opposite sides on two opposite inner walls of the channel and spaced apart from the bottom of the channel; the spacing between adjacent first biological absorption plates is 50-200m, and the characteristic degrading microorganisms on each first biological absorption plate are mainly anaerobic and facultative anaerobic bacteria. During the wet season, multiple second biological absorption plates are arranged sequentially and spaced apart along the length of the channel slope on the channel slope and spaced apart from the bottom of the channel; the spacing between adjacent second biological absorption plates is 50-200m, and the characteristic degrading microorganisms on each second biological absorption plate are mainly aerobic and facultative aerobic bacteria.

[0016] As one technical solution of this application, the first biological absorption board includes an ecological net, a rigid frame, filler balls, and biological filler; the rigid frame is fixedly arranged around the ecological net and is made of stainless steel or the like; the ecological net can be made of polyethylene, polypropylene, or nylon, and the pore size is 1cm-5cm; the filler balls are evenly suspended on the ecological net and have a diameter of 5cm-20cm; the biological filler is placed inside the filler balls and can be made of one or more of the following materials: carbon fiber, artificial aquatic plants, polyurethane fiber, and loofah sponge.

[0017] As one technical solution of this application, the second biological absorption board includes an ecological net, a rigid frame, filler balls, and biological filler; the rigid frame is fixedly arranged around the ecological net and is made of stainless steel or the like; the ecological net is made of polyethylene, polypropylene, or nylon or the like, and has a pore size of 1cm-5cm; the filler balls are evenly suspended on the ecological net and have a diameter of 5cm-20cm; the biological filler is placed inside the filler balls and is made of one or more of the following materials: carbon fiber, artificial aquatic plants, polyurethane fiber, and loofah sponge.

[0018] The beneficial effects of this application are:

[0019] This application provides a water purification method suitable for plain water network areas, which has the following beneficial effects:

[0020] (1) Based on the water pollution characteristics of canal water bodies in plain water network areas, it pre-loads characteristic degrading microorganisms on the first biological absorption plate and the second biological absorption plate, which can efficiently and quickly reduce the nutrient load of water bodies. At the same time, the engineering workload of this method is small and does not occupy land area, making it suitable for the treatment of canal water bodies in plain water network areas.

[0021] (2) This method takes into account the differences in hydrodynamic conditions and water pollution in plain water network areas at different times, and adopts precise treatment plans in the dry season and the wet season respectively. It can effectively purify polluted water bodies in the canals of plain water network areas according to the time and conditions, improve the treatment effect, and effectively reduce the treatment cost.

[0022] (3) This method mainly uses carrier biofilm to purify water bodies. It is less affected by the water temperature, transparency, and water quality of the treated water body. At the same time, it overcomes the problem that the hardening of channels prevents microorganisms from attaching effectively, improves the self-purification capacity of water bodies, achieves good ecological landscape and long-term maintenance of water environment quality, and has low operation and maintenance costs.

[0023] Therefore, this method has the characteristics of high efficiency and speed in treatment, minimal environmental impact of technical implementation, low daily maintenance cost, and ensuring long-term maintenance of water quality. Attached Figure Description

[0037] Example:

[0038] Please refer to Figure 1 (Refer to) Figures 2 to 4 This embodiment provides a water purification method applicable to plain water network areas. A section of canal 1 in a certain city was selected and this method was used for water treatment. Canal 1 is a man-made, hardened canal with a width of 2.5m and a length of approximately 1000m in the treatment area. Canal 1 is mainly used for agricultural irrigation, and its water quality should meet the Class V or higher water quality standards stipulated in the "Surface Water Environmental Quality Standard" (GB3838-2002). Affected by agricultural non-point source runoff pollution and fish and shrimp farming pollution, the water in this section of canal 1 is consistently classified as worse than Class V, with excessive levels of total nitrogen, ammonia nitrogen, and nitrate nitrogen. Furthermore, due to the hardening of canal 1, microorganisms have difficulty attaching, aquatic plants degrade, and the water's self-recovery capacity is poor.

[0039] This method addresses the water pollution control needs of Channel 1 by analyzing the characteristics of water pollution, selecting characteristic degrading microorganisms, and immobilizing them on the independently developed first biological absorption plate 2 and second biological absorption plate 3. Based on the differences in hydrodynamic conditions and water pollution characteristics during dry and wet seasons, precise pollution control is implemented to achieve efficient water purification and long-term maintenance of water quality. The specific water purification steps are as follows:

[0040] S1, an investigation and analysis of the water body in Canal 1 of the plain water network area was conducted to obtain the hydrodynamic conditions and water pollution characteristics of the water body:

[0041] (1) During the dry season, the water in Canal 1 is relatively shallow, with a depth of 0.5-1.0m. The water is in a static state, with low dissolved oxygen content (about 1-3mg / L). The main indicators exceeding the standard in the water are total nitrogen and ammonia nitrogen. In addition, the organic matter content in the water is high, and the water has a foul odor.

[0042] (2) During the high water season, the water in Channel 1 is relatively deep, with a depth of 1.0-2.0m and a relatively fast water flow velocity (about 0.2m / s). The dissolved oxygen content in the water is high (above 7.0mg / L), and the main indicators exceeding the standard in the water are total nitrogen and nitrate nitrogen.

[0043] S2, based on the hydrodynamic conditions and water pollution characteristics, select characteristic degrading microorganisms and immobilize them on the first biological digestion plate 2 and the second biological digestion plate 3:

[0044] During the dry season, anaerobic bacteria such as methanogens and sulfate-reducing bacteria, as well as facultative anaerobic bacteria such as denitrifying bacteria and yeast, are mainly selected and immobilized on the first biological absorption plate 2; during the wet season, aerobic bacteria such as nitrifying bacteria and ammonifying bacteria are mainly selected and immobilized on the biological absorption plate.

[0045] S3, during the dry season, multiple first biological absorption plates 2 are installed in channel 1. Each first biological absorption plate 2 is 2m long and 0.5m wide, with one plate spaced every 100m, for a total of 10 plates. These plates are arranged sequentially along the length of channel 1 within its inner cavity, with each plate fixed to opposite inner walls of channel 1 on its opposite sides, spaced apart from the bottom of channel 1. The characteristic degrading microorganisms on each first biological absorption plate 2 are primarily anaerobic and facultative anaerobic bacteria. The treatment period is 3 months. During this period, the reduction loads of total nitrogen and ammonia nitrogen in channel 1 are 80.2kg and 56.5kg, respectively, resulting in a reduction of [missing information - likely related to effluent total nitrogen and ammonia nitrogen]. The reduction rates were higher than 40% and 65%, respectively. During the high-water season, multiple second biological absorption plates 3 were installed on the slope of channel 1. The dimensions of the second biological absorption plates 3 were also 2m long and 0.5m wide. One plate was installed on each side of the slope of channel 1 every 200m, for a total of 10 plates. The multiple second biological absorption plates 3 were arranged alternately along the length of the slope of channel 1 and spaced apart from the bottom of channel 1. The characteristic degrading microorganisms on each second biological absorption plate 3 were mainly aerobic and facultative aerobic bacteria. The treatment period was 3 months. During the treatment period, the reduction load of total nitrogen and ammonia nitrogen in channel 1 was 57.5kg and 38.2kg, respectively, and the reduction rates of total nitrogen and nitrate nitrogen in the effluent were higher than 35% and 55%, respectively.

[0046] S4. Regularly manage and maintain the first biological treatment plate 2 and the second biological treatment plate 3: Every 5 months, replace or repair the first biological treatment plate 2 and the second biological treatment plate 3 to address issues such as biofilm aging, packing material detachment, and ecological network damage that may occur during the purification process, in order to ensure the long-term maintenance of water quality.

[0047] In summary, this application provides a water purification method applicable to plain water network areas. This method is suitable for the efficient purification of polluted water in canals 1 in plain water network areas under different hydrodynamic conditions. It solves the problem of water purification materials hindering flood discharge and overcomes the problem that hardening of canals 1 prevents microorganisms from effectively attaching. To a certain extent, it reconstructs the natural ecology, enhances the self-purification capacity of water bodies, and achieves good ecological landscape and long-term maintenance of water environment quality. This method, based on the water pollution characteristics of Canal 1 in the plain water network area, pre-immobilizes characteristic degrading microorganisms on the first biological absorption plate 2 and the second biological absorption plate 3, which can efficiently and rapidly reduce the nutrient load of the water body. Simultaneously, this method requires less engineering work and does not occupy land area, making it suitable for the treatment of Canal 1 in the plain water network. Furthermore, this method adopts precise treatment plans for different periods of low and high water seasons, taking into account the differences in hydrodynamic conditions and water pollution in the plain water network area at different times. This allows for efficient purification of polluted water in Canal 1 in the plain water network area according to the specific conditions, improving the treatment effect and effectively reducing treatment costs. In addition, this method mainly uses a carrier biofilm to purify the water, which is less affected by the water temperature, transparency, and water quality of the treated water body. It also overcomes the problem of hardening of Canal 1 preventing effective attachment of microorganisms, enhancing the self-purification capacity of the water body, achieving a good ecological landscape and long-term maintenance of water environmental quality, and with low operation and maintenance costs. Therefore, this method has the characteristics of efficient and rapid treatment, minimal environmental impact of technical implementation, low daily maintenance costs, and ensuring long-term maintenance of water quality.
