DETAILED DESCRIPTION

[0024] In order to make the objects, technical solutions, and advantages of embodiments of the present application clearer, the embodiments of the present application will be described in detail below with reference to the drawings, but the embodiments described in the present application are only part of the embodiments of the present application, rather than all the embodiments of the present application.

[0025] An embodiment of the present application provides a stepped biological detention facility, as shown in FIG. 1, which includes a detention unit, a water-permeable cloth 6, a water-permeable partition 5, and the like. Figures 1-6

[0026] ​Specifically, the retention units are arranged in multiple levels, adjacent retention units are separated by water-permeable partitions 5, the bottom heights of the retention units are the same, the first level of retention units from low to high has, from top to bottom, the soil layer 1, the first filter material layer 2, the second level of retention units from low to high has, from top to bottom, the soil layer 1, the first filter material layer 2, the second filter material layer 3, the third level of retention units from low to high has, from top to bottom, the soil layer 1, the first filter material layer 2, the second filter material layer 3, the third filter material layer 4, and the remaining retention units have, from top to bottom, the soil layer 1, the first filter material layer 2, the second filter material layer 3, and multiple third filter material layers 4, the number of the third filter material layers 4 is the level number of the retention unit minus 2, the water-permeable cloth 6 is arranged below the soil layer 1 and between adjacent filter material layers in the vertical direction, the first filter material layer 2 is inoculated with full-nitrification bacteria, the second filter material layer 3 is inoculated with denitrifying bacteria, and the third filter material layer 4 is inoculated with phosphorus accumulating bacteria.

[0027] In one embodiment, referring to Figure 2 , a ladder-shaped bioretention facility with a total of five levels of retention units is shown, wherein the fourth level of retention units from low to high has, from top to bottom, the first filter material layer 2, the second filter material layer 3, and two third filter material layers 4, and the fifth level of retention units from low to high has, from top to bottom, the first filter material layer 2, the second filter material layer 3, and three third filter material layers 4. In actual use, the water inlet mode can be horizontal overflow, vertical underflow, and horizontal overflow through the holes between the water-permeable partitions 5, the biofilm bacteria species are different between each layer of filler, and layered biofilm can reduce the influence of miscellaneous bacteria on the treatment effect. The water to be treated passes through the multiple filter material layers from the soil layer 1 at the top of each retention unit, the water infiltrated in the third level to the fifth level of retention units from low to high passes through the first filter material layer 2, the second filter material layer 3, and the third filter material layer 4, and is absorbed by the full-nitrification bacteria, the denitrifying bacteria, and the phosphorus accumulating bacteria inoculated in turn, the water infiltrated in the first level to the second level of retention units from low to high can penetrate horizontally through the water-permeable partitions 5, and can also pass through the first filter material layer 2, the second filter material layer 3, and the third filter material layer 4, and be absorbed by the full-nitrification bacteria, the denitrifying bacteria, and the phosphorus accumulating bacteria inoculated in turn, so that the bioretention facility can still have a good removal rate of ammonia nitrogen and phosphorus under the dual purification of multiple fillers and biological treatment under high ammonia nitrogen and high phosphorus load. Specifically, referring to Figure 2 , Figure 4 , the third filter material layer 4 at the bottom of the highest retention unit is connected with the drainage pipeline 12, and excess water accumulated at the bottom of the retention unit can be discharged through the drainage pipeline 12.

[0028] Specifically, referring to Figure 4The top of each retention unit is provided with a water storage baffle 7 for retaining the water to be treated above the soil layer 1. The top of the first to the n-1 retention units from low to high is provided with a water guide pipe 8 along the length direction. n is an integer greater than or equal to 3, representing the number of retention units. The top of the water guide pipe 8 is connected with a vertical overflow pipe 9. The top of the overflow pipe 9 is lower than the top of the water storage baffle 7. One end of the water guide pipe 8 penetrates through the water storage baffle 7 and is connected with the second filter material layer 3 and the third filter material layer 4 in the same row through a connecting pipe 10. Figure 2 、 Figure 3 When n is 5, as shown in the drawings, the top of the first to the fourth retention units from low to high is provided with a water guide pipe 8 along the length direction. When the water level in the water storage baffle 7 is higher than the overflow pipe 9, the water flows into the water guide pipe 8 from the overflow pipe 9 and then flows into the second filter material layer 3 and the third filter material layer 4 in the same row through the connecting pipe 10, so that part of the water does not pass through the soil layer 1 and the first filter material layer 2 and directly enters the second filter material layer 3 and the third filter material layer 4, so that the denitrifying bacteria and the phosphorus accumulating bacteria directly obtain part of the carbon source in the water to be treated. Avoiding that the carbon source in the water is first absorbed and utilized by the full nitrification bacteria in the soil layer 1 and the first filter material layer 2 and then flows into the subsequent filter material layer, so that the denitrifying bacteria and the phosphorus accumulating bacteria in the second filter material layer 3 and the third filter material layer 4 obtain too little carbon source, which affects the removal effect of ammonia nitrogen and phosphorus and the growth and reproduction of the bacteria.

[0029] More specifically, referring to Figure 1 The second filter material layer 3 and the third filter material layer 4 are provided with a water inlet pipe 11 along the length direction. The bottom of the water inlet pipe 11 is provided with a plurality of drainage holes 1101 along the length direction. The water inlet pipe 11 in the second filter material layer 3 and the third filter material layer 4 in the same row is connected with one end of the water guide pipe 8 in the same row through the connecting pipe 10. The water to be treated enters the water inlet pipe 11 through the connecting pipe 10 and then flows downward into the second filter material layer 3 and the third filter material layer 4 through the plurality of drainage holes 1101 at the bottom of the water inlet pipe, so that the water distribution is more uniform. More specifically, referring to Figure 5 The fixed plate 13 can be arranged on both sides of the retention unit for fixing the connecting pipe 10 and the water inlet pipe 11.

[0030] Specifically, the particle size of the fillers in the first filter material layer 2, the second filter material layer 3 and the third filter material layer 4 increases in turn, so as to improve the water permeation speed. In an embodiment, the modified limestone filler and the zeolite filler are selected as the first filter material layer 2, the pyrite filler is selected as the second filter material layer 3, and the volcanic rock filler is selected as the third filter material layer 4. Because the modified limestone and the zeolite have good adhesion to the full nitrification bacteria, the pyrite can appropriately promote the denitrification process of the denitrifying bacteria, and the volcanic rock has good adhesion effect on the phosphorus accumulating bacteria, so that the removal effect of the retention facility on the ammonia nitrogen and the phosphorus in the water can be improved.

[0031] Specifically, the modified limestone is obtained through the processes of heating, alkali washing, cleaning, drying and grinding, and the surface voids of the modified limestone are increased, so that the inoculation effect of the whole nitrifying bacteria and the adsorption effect on ammonia nitrogen are further improved.

[0032] Specifically, when inoculating the whole nitrifying bacteria, denitrifying bacteria and phosphorus accumulating bacteria, the whole nitrifying bacteria, denitrifying bacteria and phosphorus accumulating bacteria are respectively enriched in sludge, and then diluted with clean water to 30000 mg / L-4000 mg / L, and then added into the corresponding filter material layer in multiple times, so that the surface of the filler in each filter material layer is infiltrated with sludge water containing corresponding bacteria, and the uniformity of inoculation is improved.

[0033] Under the standard working condition (rainfall depth 25 mm, rainfall duration 2 hours), the simulated rainfall TN (total nitrogen) is 8 mg / L, TP (total phosphorus) is 0.5 mg / L, and COD (chemical oxygen demand) is 18.2 mg / L. After 20 times of water inflow of the ladder-shaped biological retention facility, the pollutant removal effect is shown in Table 1. The removal rate of TN is 80%, the removal rate of TP is 78%, and the removal rate of COD is 83.5%, all reaching a high removal effect.

[0036] Specifically, the test method is as follows: first, configure simulated rainwater: add 180 L tap water in a 200 L PE dosing barrel, and stand for at least 24 hours to reduce the influence of residual chlorine. Stir and aerate before each test, to simulate the high dissolved oxygen characteristics of actual rainwater. Then add the prepared pollutant stock solution, make up to 200 L, and stir clockwise for 15 min. The water preparation substances and concentrations are shown in Table 1. The uniform rainfall method is used to simulate the standard working condition rainfall. Collect all the effluent, and test the pollutant concentration.
