[0062] Example 3:
[0063] Taking actual operation as an example:
[0064] (1) Device assembly and deployment:
[0065] In a typical rural sewage treatment plant, assuming the daily sewage treatment volume is 250 cubic meters, 0.2 cubic meters of sludge with a moisture content of 80% needs to be treated. Deploy the sludge drying treatment device of the present invention to treat this part of the sludge.
[0066] Initial state: The device is in a contracted state, with dimensions of 3.5 meters × 1 meter, which is convenient for transportation and storage.
[0067] (2) Preparation stage:
[0068] Move the device to the designated position and place it stably using the first roller 101 and the second roller 701.
[0069] Fold the housing folding section 18 at the bottom plate of the device housing 1 downward, and then fold the sunlight plate folding section 17 of the sunlight plate 2 upward to stretch the device.
[0070] Pull the conveyor belt support frame 19 at the end of the sludge conveyor belt 6 to make the sludge conveyor belt 6 unfold to Figure 3 the state shown, and at this time the device dimensions become 3.5 meters × 3 meters, completing the preparation work for the stretched state.
[0071] (3) Pre-operation inspection:
[0072] Confirm that all components have been correctly installed.
[0073] Check whether the condensate drain pipe 13 and the condensate collection branch pipe 14 are unobstructed, and confirm that the exhaust pipe 16 is unblocked.
[0074] Verify whether the sludge conveyor belt 6 is straight and not overly slack or taut.
[0075] Operation process
[0076] (1) Feeding: The high-moisture-content sludge to be treated enters the sludge hopper 3, and the device starts.
[0077] (2) Stirring and spreading: The sludge is agitated by the sludge stirrer 4 during the falling process, broken into smaller lumps, and then evenly distributed onto the sludge conveyor belt 6. The sludge spreading plate 5 ensures an appropriate thickness of the sludge layer, which is conducive to water evaporation.
[0078] (3) Drying: Inside the sunlight shed, solar energy is used to accelerate water evaporation. At the same time, air circulation is maintained through the exhaust pipe 16 to increase the drying rate.
[0079] When the temperature is lower than 40°C, the conveyor belt speed is set to the first gear at 0.2 m / h.
[0080] When the temperature is between 40 and 50°C, the speed is adjusted to the second gear at 0.3 m / h.
[0081] When the temperature exceeds 50°C, the speed is increased to the third gear at 0.4 m / h.
[0082] (4) Condensate management: The evaporated water is condensed at the condensate pipe 15 and safely discharged through the condensate drain pipe 13 to avoid water accumulation affecting the drying efficiency.
[0083] (5) Discharging: The dried sludge is sent by the sludge conveyor belt 6 to the discharge opening 9 and collected and output through the dry sludge collection box 8.
[0084] Result evaluation
[0085] Under sufficient sunlight in summer, this device can dry 0.2 cubic meters of sludge with a water content of 80% to 60%, meeting the expected goal.
[0086] The volume of the treated sludge decreases, which is convenient for storage and transportation and reduces the subsequent treatment cost.
[0087] The device has low energy consumption. Only a small amount of electricity is required to support the operation of the sensors and the conveyor belt, and most of the energy comes from solar energy, which is environmentally friendly and economical.
[0088] Shrinkage and storage
[0089] After completing the treatment task, restore the device to the shrunk state in the reverse order for easy storage or transfer to other locations.
[0090] Through the above embodiments, the sludge drying treatment device of the present invention has performed excellently in the application of township sewage treatment plants, not only improving the drying efficiency but also reducing the operating cost, demonstrating its feasibility and advantages in practical scenarios.
