Description

Technical Field

[0001] This invention relates to the field of geothermal water treatment technology, specifically to a geothermal water purification method and apparatus based on anion and cation adsorption and precipitation. Background Technology

[0002] Geothermal water resources, as a clean, environmentally friendly, energy-saving, and renewable new energy source, are receiving increasing attention for their development and utilization. Compared with traditional energy sources, geothermal water resources have the advantages of relatively continuous and stable energy supply, efficient recycling, renewability, and low operating costs, and can be used for various purposes such as power generation, heating, bathing, aquaculture, and healthcare. To a certain extent, geothermal energy is expected to become an important direction for future energy development. However, in geothermal well water supply projects, the water returned from the geothermal wells may contain scale particles, be colored or odorous, and have excessive levels of pollutants. Direct discharge of such water could have a certain impact on urban sewage treatment systems or the surface environment, which does not meet the requirements for high-quality green development of the industry.

[0003] Current research on geothermal water treatment is limited, and existing methods and materials generally only address specific harmful components in the water, with solutions often prepared in the laboratory. Various treatment technologies, including precipitation, ion exchange, membrane technology, adsorption, and electrodialysis, are used to remove fluoride from geothermal water. Pascua et al. used Swartman iron ore to treat arsenic in geothermal water; Kabay et al., Koseoglu et al., Ipek et al., and Samatya et al. conducted experimental studies on boron removal from geothermal water using electrocoagulation, a hybrid ion exchange-microfiltration process, membrane technology, or boron-selective ion exchange resins and monodisperse porous synthetic resins, respectively. The geothermal water treatment technologies used in these studies are generally expensive or complex, and cannot reduce the content of the component to below water quality standards in a single step, making them unsuitable for preventing environmental pollution caused by harmful components from geothermal sources. In geothermal areas and surrounding regions with low economic development levels, large-scale geothermal water treatment plants or systems with high operating and maintenance costs are difficult to promote.

[0004] Moreover, geothermal water is rich in Fe 2+ During the processes of geothermal water extraction, geothermal heat exchange, and geothermal water reinjection, Fe 2 + Oxidized to Fe 3+ This forms a yellow or brown precipitate, resulting in scaling on the inner walls of wells and pipes, and within the area affected by reinjection. Therefore, it is evident that Fe... 2+ However, it becomes a pollutant. Therefore, efficient removal of Fe from geothermal water is crucial. 2+ At the same time, ensuring that the discharge of geothermal water meets the standards is an urgent problem to be solved in the development and utilization of geothermal energy. Summary of the Invention

[0011] Furthermore, the flow velocity of the geothermal water into the first filter tank is 45~50 m. 3 / h.

[0012] Furthermore, the geothermal water purification treatment method removes ferrous ions from geothermal water at a rate of at least 99.9%.

[0013] Furthermore, the geothermal water is return water from sandstone or limestone geothermal water supply wells.

[0014] Furthermore, grids are provided between the manganese sand layer and the iron-based anion exchange resin layer, between the zeolite layer and the activated bauxite layer, and between the activated bauxite layer and the activated carbon layer.

[0015] Furthermore, a second objective of this invention is to provide a geothermal water purification device that operates using the aforementioned treatment method. The geothermal water purification device includes a vertical multi-stage booster pump, a first filter tank, a second filter tank, a precision filter, a rotor flow meter, and a pipeline ultraviolet disinfection lamp, all connected in sequence.

Detailed Implementation

[0024] To make the objectives, technical solutions, and advantages of this invention clearer, the specific embodiments and accompanying drawings are described in further detail below. Where specific techniques or conditions are not specified in the embodiments, they are performed according to the techniques or conditions described in the literature in this field or according to the product instructions. Reagents or instruments whose manufacturers are not specified are all commercially available conventional products.

[0025] refer to Figure 1A geothermal water purification device 1 based on anion and cation adsorption and precipitation includes: a vertical multi-stage booster pump 2, a first filter tank 4, a second filter tank 5, a precision filter 6, a rotor flow meter 12, a pipeline ultraviolet disinfection lamp 15, and an industrial process electrical control box 17, which are connected end to end in sequence. A vertical multistage booster pump 2, a first filter tank 4, and a second filter tank 5 are connected in sequence. A ball valve 10 is installed between the inlet and the vertical multistage booster pump 2 to control the entry of geothermal water. A high-pressure protection switch 7, a conductivity sensor A9, a rotor flow meter 8, and a pointer pressure gauge 14 are installed between the vertical multistage booster pump 2 and the second filter tank 5. The first filter tank 4 and the second filter tank 5 are filled with an appropriate amount of filter media according to the corresponding ratio, and each is equipped with an automatic filter valve 3 to flush the filter media. A pressure relief valve 11 with a pointer pressure gauge is connected to the top of the precision filter 6, and a rotor flow meter 12 is connected to the left end. A pipeline ultraviolet disinfection lamp 15 is connected to a conductivity sensor B13 at the front end and connected to the equipment outlet 16 at the rear end. In addition, there is an industrial process electrical control box 17 that can monitor the operation status of the geothermal water treatment equipment in real time.

[0026] refer to Figure 2 Geothermal water enters the first filter tank 4 under the action of the vertical multi-stage booster pump 2. The first filter tank 4 is filled from top to bottom with a manganese sand layer 43 and an iron-based anion exchange resin layer 44. Grilles 18 are installed between the manganese sand layer 43 and the iron-based anion exchange resin layer 44, and between the manganese sand layer 43 and the first inlet 41. The grilles 18 prevent the packing material from escaping. The pore size is 0.1~0.2mm. The manganese sand and iron-based anion exchange resin (Fe-LDH) replace fluorine, tungsten, antimony, and boron ions in the geothermal water. The manganese sand contains MnO2, which is converted into high-valence manganese under the action of dissolved oxygen in the water. The high-valence manganese then converts Fe... 2+ Oxidized to Fe 3+ Simultaneously, high-valence manganese compounds are reduced back to MnO2. As iron removal continues, a yellow film forms on the surface of the manganese sand. This film is formed after iron oxidation, and its main component is γ-FeOOH, which can absorb Fe from the water. 2+ Ion exchange occurs. The geothermal water discharged from the first outlet 42 of the first filter tank 4 then enters the second filter tank 5 through the second inlet 51. The second filter tank 5 is filled from top to bottom with a zeolite layer 53, an activated bauxite layer 54, and an activated carbon layer 55. Through oxidation-reduction reactions, the zeolite and activated bauxite react with Ba in the water... 2+ Pb 2+ Cd 2+ Cu 2+ Zn 2+ It reacts with heavy metal ions, fluoride ions, oils, and other organic substances. Activated carbon removes irritating H2S gas and other odorous and taste-producing substances from the water.

[0027] After the reaction, the geothermal water is further softened in the precision filter 6 to reduce the water's mineralization. Then, it is disinfected and sterilized by ultraviolet lamps in the pipeline. A portion of the water sample is collected from the device's outlet 16, and the anions and cations of the geothermal water can be analyzed using a Dionex ion chromatograph (model: ICS1100) and an inductively coupled plasma optical emission spectrometer (ICP-OES, model: ICAP6300).
