Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This invention relates to the field of wastewater treatment technology, specifically to a load-regulating rural wastewater operation device. Background Technology
[0002] Rural wastewater treatment faces challenges such as insufficient operating funds and significant seasonal variations leading to prolonged low-load operation. This prolonged low-load operation results in excessively low total organic matter in the influent, hindering the cultivation and acclimatization of microorganisms, causing microbial aging, and ultimately affecting effluent quality. Consequently, various operating modes and parameter settings differ significantly from normal conditions, preventing rural domestic wastewater treatment projects from fulfilling their intended purpose. Furthermore, most existing integrated equipment utilizes the plug-flow activated sludge process, commonly employing anaerobic / anoxic / aerobic methods. Typically presented as single integrated units, the limited size of aeration equipment prevents variable frequency control, resulting in high aeration rates even at low loads. This not only leads to high energy consumption but also high dissolved oxygen levels in the effluent mixed liquor. When the mixed liquor is 100% recycled, this high dissolved oxygen is carried back to the anoxic tank, causing high ORP in the anoxic tank, making it difficult to create an anoxic environment, inhibiting denitrification, and ultimately worsening the total nitrogen content of the effluent.
[0003] The existing integrated rural sewage treatment equipment has the disadvantages of high energy consumption and inflexible operation. Therefore, it is necessary to propose a load-regulating rural sewage operation device to solve the above problems. Summary of the Invention
[0004] In order to solve a series of problems such as high energy consumption and inflexible operation of existing integrated rural sewage treatment equipment, which prevent rural domestic sewage treatment projects from playing their due role, this invention provides a load-regulating rural sewage operation device.
[0005] This invention provides a load-regulating rural wastewater operation device, comprising a rectangular box structure consisting of an anaerobic zone, an anoxic zone, an aerobic zone, a reoxygenated water zone, and a sedimentation zone. Flow holes are provided between the anaerobic zone, the anoxic zone, and the aerobic zone. The aerobic zone is connected to the sedimentation zone via a bypass connecting pipe, and a bypass connecting valve is installed on the bypass connecting pipe. The reoxygenated water zone is connected to the sedimentation zone via a reoxygenated water zone outlet pipe. The aerobic zone returns nitrified liquid to the anoxic zone through a pipeline equipped with an internal return pump, and the sedimentation zone returns sludge to the anaerobic zone through a pipeline equipped with a sludge return pump.
[0006] During implementation, a rectangular box structure consisting of an anaerobic zone, an anoxic zone, an aerobic zone, a reoxygenated water zone, and a sedimentation zone is used. Each zone is independent, and the anaerobic zone, anoxic zone, aerobic zone, and reoxygenated water zone are separated by partitions. The volume ratio of the anaerobic zone, anoxic zone, aerobic zone, and reoxygenated water zone is 4:4:12:1. Flow holes are provided between the anaerobic zone, anoxic zone, and aerobic zone, and adjacent zones are connected through flow holes. The aerobic zone is connected to the sedimentation zone through a bypass connecting pipe, and a bypass connecting valve is installed on the bypass connecting pipe. The reoxygenated water zone is connected to the sedimentation zone through a reoxygenated water zone outlet pipe. The aerobic zone returns nitrified liquid to the anoxic zone through a pipeline equipped with an internal return pump, and the sedimentation zone returns sludge to the anaerobic zone through a pipeline equipped with a sludge return pump.
[0007] Furthermore, both the anaerobic and anoxic zones are equipped with agitators, and a reoxygenation water return distribution pipe is installed at the bottom of the anoxic zone.
[0008] Furthermore, an aerobic zone microporous aerator and an aerobic zone air distribution pipe are installed at the bottom of the aerobic zone. An aerobic zone reoxygenated water return distribution pipe is set at the bottom of the aerobic zone and connected to the anoxic zone reoxygenated water return distribution pipe. Aeration is carried out in the aerobic zone by a blower.
[0009] Furthermore, the reoxygenated water zone is equipped with a microporous aerator, an air distribution pipe, a cascading drainage channel, cascading baffles, and a reoxygenated water return pump. Aeration in the reoxygenated water zone is achieved through a blower. The cascading drainage channel is V-shaped at 45°, with one end connected to the aerobic zone and the other end suspended above the reoxygenated water zone. The upper opening width of the cascading drainage channel is not less than 15cm, and the elevation of the cascading drainage channel is at least 1m higher than the elevation of the effluent weir in the sedimentation zone. Specifically, the shape and size of the cascading baffles are consistent with the shape and size of the reoxygenated water zone and are parallel to the water surface of the reoxygenated water zone. The elevation of the cascading baffles is at least 0.5m lower than the elevation of the cascading drainage channel and higher than the elevation of the effluent weir in the sedimentation zone. The cascading baffles are covered with water passage holes with a diameter of 1.5cm, and the hole area accounts for 30% to 50%.
[0010] Furthermore, the sedimentation zone is equipped with an effluent weir, a rectifier cylinder, and a sludge return pump; the elevation of the effluent weir is 1.2m to 1.5m below the top elevation of the load-regulating rural sewage treatment plant.
[0011] Compared with the prior art, the present invention has the following beneficial effects:
[0012] This invention provides a load-regulating rural wastewater treatment device that adds a reoxygenation water zone between the anaerobic, anoxic, aerobic, and sedimentation zones. Water from the reoxygenation water zone is then returned to the anoxic and aerobic zones, simultaneously achieving forced aeration and external oxygen supply. This solves the problems of poor flexibility and precision in adjusting aeration pipe valves in previous small-scale integrated wastewater treatment equipment. By adjusting the operating mode, it achieves high-efficiency carbon, nitrogen, and phosphorus removal, maintains activated sludge volume, and sustains low-energy operation. This invention effectively reduces energy consumption in rural wastewater treatment and alleviates the problem of poor effluent quality stability under load fluctuations due to significant seasonal variations.
[0013] This invention sets up two aeration modes simultaneously in a rural sewage treatment plant. The aeration mode can be flexibly switched according to the fluctuations in influent flow and water quality, so as to achieve high-efficiency carbon, nitrogen and phosphorus removal performance, maintain the amount of activated sludge, and maintain low-energy operation.
[0014] This invention solves the problems of poor flexibility and accuracy in adjusting the valves of aeration pipes in previous small-scale integrated sewage treatment equipment.
[0015] This invention adds a small-volume reoxygenated water zone between the aerobic zone and the sedimentation zone without increasing the floor space, thus saving on investment. Attached Figure Description
