The opening of the first electric regulating valve is adjusted according to the average dissolved oxygen concentration and the set value of the average dissolved oxygen concentration of the aeration pool, thereby adjusting the water distribution of the biological pool. However, it does not take into account the sludge concentration of the biological pool.

[0039] The present invention will now be described in more detail with reference to the accompanying drawings. While preferred embodiments of the present invention are shown in the accompanying drawings, it should be understood that the present invention may be implemented in various forms and is not limited to the embodiments set forth herein. Rather, these embodiments are provided to make the present invention more thorough and complete and to fully convey the scope of the present invention to those skilled in the art.
[0040] like Figure 1 As shown, a method for controlling a water inlet gate of a biological pool in a reclaimed water plant according to the present invention includes:
[0041] Get the current sludge concentration of the biological pool;
[0042] Compare the current sludge concentration with the sludge concentration threshold range corresponding to the biological pool;
[0043] Based on the comparison results, the water inlet gate control strategy of the biological pond is determined and implemented.
[0044] Specifically, first, the sludge concentration threshold range, dissolved oxygen content threshold range, air intake regulating valve opening threshold range, water inlet gate opening range and water inlet gate control cycle corresponding to each biological pool are set; every time a control cycle, the current sludge concentration of the biological pool is obtained, and the current sludge concentration is compared with the sludge concentration threshold range corresponding to the biological pool, and the water inlet gate control strategy of the biological pool is determined and executed based on the comparison result; when the comparison result shows that the current sludge concentration is greater than the maximum value of the sludge concentration threshold range corresponding to the biological pool, the biological pool is increased based on the set third water inlet gate opening value. The corresponding water inlet gate opening; when the comparison result is that the current sludge concentration is less than the minimum value of the sludge concentration threshold range corresponding to the biological pool, the water inlet gate opening corresponding to the biological pool is reduced based on the set fourth water inlet gate opening value; when the comparison result is that the current sludge concentration is within the sludge concentration threshold range corresponding to the biological pool, the current dissolved oxygen content and the current air inlet regulating valve opening of the biological pool are obtained, and the current dissolved oxygen content is compared with the dissolved oxygen content threshold range corresponding to the biological pool, and the current air inlet regulating valve opening is compared with the air inlet regulating valve opening threshold range corresponding to the biological pool. The comparison result determines the control strategy of the water inlet gate of the biological pool and executes it. When the comparison result is that the current dissolved oxygen content is less than the minimum value of the dissolved oxygen content threshold range corresponding to the biological pool, and the current air inlet regulating valve opening is greater than the maximum value of the air inlet regulating valve opening threshold range corresponding to the biological pool, then the opening of the water inlet gate corresponding to the biological pool is reduced based on the set first water inlet gate opening value. When the comparison result is that the current dissolved oxygen content is greater than the maximum value of the dissolved oxygen content threshold range corresponding to the biological pool, and the current air inlet regulating valve opening is less than the minimum value of the air inlet regulating valve opening threshold range corresponding to the biological pool, then based on the set The second water inlet gate opening value is set to increase the water inlet gate opening corresponding to the biological pool. Except for the above two comparison results, the water inlet gate opening corresponding to the biological pool is not adjusted.

[0045] In one example, before obtaining the current sludge concentration of the biological pond, the following steps are included:
[0046] Set the sludge concentration threshold range corresponding to each biological pool;
[0047] Set the dissolved oxygen content threshold range corresponding to each biological pool;
[0048] Set the opening threshold range of the air inlet regulating valve corresponding to each biological pool;
[0049] Set the opening range of the water inlet gate corresponding to each biological pool.
[0050] Set the biological pool inlet gate control period.
[0051] In one example, if the current sludge concentration is within the sludge concentration threshold range corresponding to the biological pool, the current dissolved oxygen content and the current opening of the air inlet regulating valve of the biological pool are obtained;
[0052] Compare the current dissolved oxygen content with the dissolved oxygen content threshold range corresponding to the biological pool, and compare the current air intake regulating valve opening with the air intake regulating valve opening threshold range corresponding to the biological pool;
[0053] Based on the comparison results, the water inlet gate control strategy of the biological pond is determined and implemented.
[0054] In one example, if the current dissolved oxygen content is less than the minimum value of the dissolved oxygen content threshold range corresponding to the biological pool, and the current air intake regulating valve opening is greater than the maximum value of the air intake regulating valve opening threshold range corresponding to the biological pool, the water intake gate opening corresponding to the biological pool is reduced based on the set first water intake gate opening value.
[0055] In one example, if the current dissolved oxygen content is greater than the maximum value of the dissolved oxygen content threshold range corresponding to the biological pool, and the current air intake regulating valve opening is less than the minimum value of the air intake regulating valve opening threshold range corresponding to the biological pool, the water intake gate opening corresponding to the biological pool is increased based on the set second water intake gate opening value.
[0056] In one example, in addition to the two comparison results mentioned above, the opening of the water inlet gate corresponding to the biological pool is not adjusted.
[0057] In one example, if the current sludge concentration is greater than the maximum value of the sludge concentration threshold range corresponding to the biological pool, the opening of the water inlet gate corresponding to the biological pool is increased based on the set third water inlet gate opening value.
[0058] In one example, if the current sludge concentration is less than the minimum value of the sludge concentration threshold range corresponding to the biological pool, the opening of the water inlet gate corresponding to the biological pool is reduced based on the set fourth water inlet gate opening value.
[0059] In one example, during the execution of the biological pool water inlet gate control strategy, the biological pool water inlet gate opening degree satisfies the biological pool corresponding water inlet gate opening degree range.
