[0039] The present invention will be further described in detail below with reference to the embodiments. It should be noted that: unless otherwise specified, the conditions in the following embodiments are carried out according to conventional conditions or the conditions recommended by the manufacturer. Unless otherwise specified, the raw materials used in the following embodiments can be obtained from commercially available sources.

[0040] Example

[0041] like Figure 1 , Figure 2 and Figure 3 As shown, the present invention provides a photocatalytic treatment device for yellow water, comprising an ammonia stripping and collection chamber 1, a reaction crystallization chamber 2, a columnar adsorption chamber 3, a photocatalytic reaction chamber 4, an anoxic conversion chamber 5, and an aerobic separation chamber 6.

[0042] The ammonia stripping collection chamber 1 is equipped with an ammonia stripping collection chamber inlet pipe 1-1 at the bottom, a water distributor 1-2 at the outlet of the ammonia stripping collection chamber inlet pipe 1-1, a stripping agent addition metering system 1-3 in front of the inlet, an alkali addition inlet 1-4 in the middle of the ammonia stripping collection chamber 1, a pH measuring device 1-5 at the top of the ammonia stripping collection chamber 1, an aeration system 1-6 at the bottom of the ammonia stripping collection chamber 1, a gas-liquid separator 1-7 at the outlet of the ammonia stripping collection chamber 1, and an ammonia collection pipe 1-8 at the top of the ammonia stripping collection chamber 1. A fan for discharging ammonia is installed in the ammonia collection pipe 1-8, and the ammonia is collected at the top of the ammonia stripping collection chamber.

[0043] The reaction crystallization chamber 2 includes a stirring zone and a sedimentation zone. The upper part of the reaction crystallization chamber 2 is equipped with a chemical addition device 2-1 for adding magnesium and phosphorus sources and a pH measuring device 2-2. The middle part of the reaction crystallization chamber is equipped with an alkali addition inlet 2-3 for adjusting the pH value. A stirring device 2-4 is installed in the stirring zone. The sedimentation zone is designed with a conical structure, and a sediment discharge valve 2-5 is installed at the bottom of the sedimentation zone.

[0044] Water distributors 3-1 are installed at both the bottom and top of the columnar adsorption chamber 3 to ensure uniform water intake. Adsorption packing material 3-2 is installed in the middle of the columnar adsorption chamber 3. The lower end of the adsorption packing material 3-2 is filled with a lower pebble pad 3-3 and the upper end with a pebble pad 3-4, respectively. A filter screen is placed between the adsorption packing material 3-2 and the lower and upper pebble pads 3-3 and 3-4, respectively. On the one hand, this is to prevent a large amount of adsorption packing material 3-2 from clogging the water distributor 3-1 as it enters the solution. On the other hand, when water enters from the bottom, the less dense adsorption packing material 3-2 tends to float and exert pressure on the top of the columnar adsorption chamber 3. The denser pebbles in the upper pebble pad 3-4 can press down on the adsorption packing material 3-2 to buffer this pressure. The water after adsorption and filtration enters the inlet of the photocatalytic reaction chamber 4 from the outlet pipe 3-5 of the columnar adsorption chamber.

[0045] The photocatalytic reaction chamber 4 is equipped with several photocatalytic baffles 4-1. Two adjacent photocatalytic baffles 4-1 are respectively set and fixed on the top and bottom walls of the photocatalytic reaction chamber 4. Two adjacent photocatalytic baffles 4-1 are parallel to each other. Water flows in sequentially from the lower end of the photocatalytic baffle 4-1 set at the top of the photocatalytic reaction chamber 4 and flows out sequentially from the upper end of the photocatalytic baffle 4-1 set at the bottom of the photocatalytic reaction chamber 4, and alternately circulates. Several small grooves are provided on the surface of the photocatalytic baffles 4-1, and photocatalysts are placed in the grooves.

[0046] The top plate of the anoxic conversion chamber 5 is inclined to facilitate the accumulation and recovery of methane gas. Specifically, the highest point of the inclined top plate of the anoxic conversion chamber 5 is connected to the photocatalytic reaction chamber 4, and the lowest point is connected to the aerobic separation chamber 6. A gas collecting pipe 5-1 is designed at the highest point of the top plate of the anoxic conversion chamber 5, which connects to an exhaust pipe that discharges methane gas from the yellow water photocatalytic treatment device. A three-phase separator 5-2 is installed at the outlet of the anoxic conversion chamber 5. The bottom of the anoxic conversion chamber 5 is designed with a conical structure, which connects to the anoxic conversion chamber discharge valve 5-3. A packing hook is installed on the top plate of the anoxic conversion chamber 5, and packing material 5-4 is suspended from the packing hook.

[0047] The top of the aerobic separation chamber 6 is equipped with an aerobic separation chamber inlet pipe 6-1, and the outlet of the aerobic separation chamber inlet pipe 6-1 is equipped with an aerobic separation chamber water distributor 6-2. Below the aerobic separation chamber water distributor 6-2, there is an aerobic packing material 6-3, and below the aerobic packing material 6-3, there is an aeration pipe 6-4 to increase the activity of the water.

[0048] In this embodiment, the stripping agent is composed of 20%–60% butanone, 20%–60% polyvinyl polyamine salt, 20%–60% hydroxyethyl cellulose ether and 20%–65% sodium hypochlorite by mass ratio, and the amount of stripping agent added is 20 ppm–50 ppm.

[0049] In this embodiment, the top of the ammonia stripping and collection chamber 1 is equipped with a sulfuric acid solution with a mass concentration of 2%-5%, which absorbs ammonia and generates ammonium sulfate for reuse.

[0050] In this embodiment, the adsorption filler 3-2 is a mixture of biochar and magnesium oxide; the raw material for biochar is waste biomass such as corn stalks and wheat stalks, and the mass ratio of biochar to magnesium oxide is 10:1.

[0051] In this embodiment, the preparation process of the photocatalyst disposed on the photocatalytic separator 4-1 is as follows:

[0052] Step 1, Preparation of bismuth molybdate: 1.3 mmol of bismuth nitrate pentahydrate and 0.65 mmol of sodium molybdate crystals were vortexed in 13 ml of ethylene glycol until completely homogenized. Then, 32.5 ml of ethanol was added and the solution was stirred for 30 min to 120 min. The mixture was then transferred to a polytetrafluoroethylene stainless steel autoclave and subjected to solvothermal treatment at 120 to 190 °C for 10 h to 24 h. After the reaction was completed, the precipitate was collected by filtration and then washed with ethanol and deionized water, respectively, and dried at 60 °C to 90 °C for 10 h to 24 h.

[0053] Step 2, Preparation of bismuth oxide: Dissolve 1.6866g of bismuth nitrate pentahydrate in 40ml of ethylene glycol (EG) solution (EG / H2O = 5 / 3), stir at 15℃~20℃ until a homogeneous solution is formed, and adjust the pH value to 8.0~9.0. Pour the solution into a stainless steel autoclave lined with tetrafluoroethylene and heat at 160℃~190℃ for 3h~10h. When the autoclave cools naturally to room temperature, centrifuge the obtained sample, wash it 3~5 times with distilled water and anhydrous ethanol, and then dry it at 70℃~90℃ for 12h~36h.

[0054] Step 3: Preparation of the bismuth oxide / bismuth molybdate composite photocatalyst: The bismuth oxide from step S2 was added to ethanol to obtain a bismuth oxide solution. The bismuth molybdate from step S1 was added to ethanol to obtain a bismuth molybdate solution. The bismuth oxide and bismuth molybdate solutions were sonicated for 1-3 hours respectively. The bismuth oxide solution was then added to the bismuth molybdate solution, and the mixture was sonicated for 2-4 hours. Then, 10-20 ml of acetone was added to the mixture, and the mixture was stirred for 12-36 hours. After precipitation, the mixture was dried to obtain the bismuth oxide / bismuth molybdate composite photocatalyst. The bismuth oxide concentration in the mixture was 6.67 × 10⁻⁶. -6 The concentration of bismuth molybdate is 1.2 × 10 mol / L. -5 mol / L; the volume ratio of the mixed solution to acetone added is 2:1.

[0055] In this embodiment, the aerobic packing material 6-3 in the aerobic separation chamber 6 is made of aldehyde fiber or polyester filament and needs to meet the following requirements: ① low resistance and good biofilm formation ability; ② good oxygen transfer rate and utilization rate during aeration; ③ good heat dissipation and water distribution performance of the packing material; ④ the aerobic packing material is a suspended structure, composed of multiple combined packing material units connected in series.

[0056] The steps for water treatment using the above-mentioned yellow water photocatalytic treatment device are as follows:

[0057] ① The yellow water (hereinafter referred to as wastewater) after adding denitrification aid through the stripping agent addition metering system 1-3 enters the ammonia stripping collection chamber 1 through the bottom water inlet pipe 1-1. The water is evenly distributed by the water distributor 1-2 in the ammonia stripping collection chamber. Alkali solution is added through the alkaline solution addition inlet 1-4 to adjust its pH value to 8-12 (measured by the pH value measuring device 1-5 in the ammonia stripping collection chamber). Under the conditions of 25℃-55℃, the wastewater stays in the ammonia stripping collection chamber 1 for 60min-150min. It is aerated using the aeration system 1-6. The gas-liquid separator 1-7 separates ammonia and water. The free ammonia in the wastewater is collected at the top of the ammonia stripping collection chamber 1 through the ammonia collection pipe 1-8. The ammonia is mixed with sulfuric acid solution to generate ammonium sulfate for reuse.

[0058] ② The wastewater then enters the reaction crystallization chamber 2. Magnesium source (MgCl2·H2O), phosphorus source (Na2HPO4·12H2O), and alkali source (NaOH) are added through the chemical addition device 2-1 at the top of the reaction crystallization chamber 2 for adding magnesium and phosphorus sources, and the alkali addition inlet 2-3 in the middle of the reaction crystallization chamber 2. This ensures that the Mg:K:P molar ratio of the wastewater entering the reaction crystallization chamber 2 is 3.3:1:3.3. Simultaneously, alkali is added through the alkali addition inlet 1-4 to adjust the pH value to approximately 11 (measured by the pH measuring device 2-2 in the reaction crystallization chamber). Under the action of the stirring device 2-4, magnesium ammonium phosphate (struvite), magnesium potassium phosphate, and magnesium sodium sulfate are finally generated. Magnesium ammonium phosphate, magnesium potassium phosphate, and magnesium sodium sulfate settle to the bottom of the reaction crystallization chamber 2 under gravity and are discharged through the sedimentation zone discharge valve 2-5 at the bottom for dehydration, drying, and recycling.

[0059] ③ The wastewater then enters the columnar adsorption chamber 3 through the inlet at the bottom. Under the action of the columnar adsorption chamber distributor 3-1, it passes sequentially through the lower pebble pad 3-3, the adsorption packing 3-2, and the top pebble pad 3-4. A filter screen separates the packing and the pads: on the one hand, to prevent a large amount of packing from entering the distributor with the solution and causing blockage; on the other hand, when water enters from the bottom, the less dense packing tends to float and exert pressure on the top of the columnar adsorption chamber 3, while the more dense pebbles can press down on the packing to buffer this pressure. Under the mixed action of biochar and magnesium oxide, magnesium phosphate and struvite are generated for recycling. The wastewater enters the photocatalytic reaction chamber 4 through the columnar adsorption chamber outlet pipe 3-5.

[0060] ④ The wastewater then enters the photocatalytic reaction chamber 4, and the wastewater alternately circulates through the photocatalytic partition 4-1, where the organic pollutants in the wastewater are degraded by the photocatalyst.

[0061] ⑤ The wastewater is then introduced into the anoxic conversion chamber 5. Inside the anoxic conversion chamber 5, the microorganisms on the anoxic packing material 5-4 decompose the large organic molecules in the wastewater into small organic molecules, and convert insoluble organic matter into soluble organic matter. The wastewater after the reaction is separated into sludge, water and methane gas by the three-phase separator 5-2. The methane gas generated is collected by the gas collection pipe 5-1 and the exhaust pipe of the anoxic conversion chamber and recycled. The sludge settles to the bottom of the anoxic conversion chamber 5 under the action of gravity, and the excess sludge is discharged through the anoxic conversion chamber discharge valve 5-3.

[0062] ⑥ The wastewater finally enters the aerobic separation chamber 6. Under the action of the aerobic separation chamber water distributor 6-2, the wastewater is evenly filtered through the aerobic packing 6-3 to remove pollutants. At the same time, the aeration pipe 6-4 at the bottom aerates the water to increase the activity of the water. The treated water is then discharged through the aerobic separation chamber outlet 6-5 for reuse or further treatment.

[0063] The above description is merely an exemplary embodiment of this disclosure, but the scope of protection of this disclosure is not limited thereto. Any variations or substitutions that can be easily conceived by those skilled in the art within the scope of the technology disclosed in this disclosure should be included within the scope of protection of this disclosure.
