Description

Technical Field

[0001] This invention relates to the field of membrane element maintenance technology, and specifically to an integrated membrane element maintenance device with self-monitoring function and its control method. Background Technology

[0002] Membranes are widely used in the wastewater treatment industry. During long-term use, membrane element maintenance is crucial for ensuring proper replacement and reuse of existing membrane elements. Since the desalination layer of a membrane element may experience irreversible water flux loss and a decrease in desalination rate after drying, the main purpose of membrane maintenance is to ensure that the membrane element remains in a consistently moist environment. Furthermore, because membrane elements filter wastewater, microbial growth is likely to occur inside them. Therefore, chemicals must be added to inhibit or kill microorganisms and prevent their proliferation from affecting the permeate flux. The wastewater treatment industry uses various types of membrane elements, mainly including ultrafiltration membranes, nanofiltration membranes, reverse osmosis membranes, and DTRO membrane sheets. Reverse osmosis and nanofiltration membranes, which are primarily made of polyamide, require maintenance with a 1% (wt%) sodium bisulfite solution, while tubular ultrafiltration membranes, which are primarily made of polyvinylidene fluoride, require a 2 mg / L sodium hypochlorite solution. Due to the different sizes of different types of membrane elements and the variations in membrane maintenance solutions, different types of membrane maintenance devices cannot be used interchangeably, significantly increasing the cost of membrane maintenance equipment.

[0003] As the membrane maintenance time increases, the effective components of the maintenance solution gradually decompose, requiring the agent to be replenished or the maintenance solution to be replaced from time to time. Manual addition cannot guarantee the concentration of the maintenance solution or provide real-time feedback on the status of the maintenance agent. If the maintenance agent is not replenished in time, it may lead to the failure of the maintenance solution or the effective concentration being too low, which will affect the subsequent performance of the membrane element.

[0026] like Figure 1As shown, the integrated membrane element maintenance device with self-monitoring function of the present invention includes: a maintenance unit, a monitoring and dosing unit, and a maintenance solution circulation unit. The maintenance unit includes a first maintenance tank 16 and a second maintenance tank 17 isolated from each other. The first maintenance tank 16 and the second maintenance tank 17 are containers for membrane element maintenance, and both the first maintenance tank 16 and the second maintenance tank 17 are equipped with removable partitions to enable simultaneous maintenance of multiple types of membrane elements.

The monitoring assembly is located in the first maintenance tank 16 and the second maintenance tank 17 to monitor the physicochemical properties of the maintenance solution and feed the data back to the control system 3. The control system 3 sends control commands to the reagent tank 4 and the reagent delivery assembly to automatically add reagents to the first maintenance tank 16 and the second maintenance tank 17. The maintenance fluid circulation unit is connected to the control system 3, the first maintenance tank 16, and the second maintenance tank 17, respectively. The control system 3 controls the operation of the maintenance fluid circulation unit to automatically maintain the circulation of maintenance fluid in the first maintenance tank 16 and the second maintenance tank 17. Specifically, the control system 3 can be a PLC control system, which is simple in principle, convenient to operate, and provides precise control.

[0027] In this embodiment, one device can meet the storage requirements of membrane elements of different sizes. The device can be adapted to different membrane types by adjusting the distribution of maintenance areas, pipeline routing, and drug supply type according to the membrane type.

[0028] like Figure 1 As shown, the maintenance unit also includes a first connecting valve 7, a first vent valve 15, a second vent valve 18, and a second connecting valve 20. The first vent valve 15 is located in the first maintenance box 16 and is connected to the control system 3 via a signal connection. The second vent valve 18 is located in the second maintenance box 17 and is also connected to the control system 3 via a signal connection. The first maintenance box 16 and the second maintenance box 17 are connected via a circulation pipeline with the first connecting valve 7 and the second connecting valve 20 to switch the maintenance mode according to the type of membrane element.

[0029] In this embodiment, the reagent delivery assembly includes a first screw feeder 5 and a second screw feeder 6. The first screw feeder 5 is connected to the reagent tank 4 and the first maintenance tank 16, respectively, and the second screw feeder 6 is connected to the reagent tank 4 and the second maintenance tank 17, respectively. The reagents stored in the reagent tank 4 are sodium hypochlorite dry solution and sodium bisulfite dry solution, which facilitates quantitative dosing.

[0030] In this embodiment, the monitoring components include a pH and conductivity monitoring component 8 and a residual chlorine and conductivity monitoring component 10. The pH and conductivity monitoring component 8 is installed in the second maintenance tank 17, and the residual chlorine and conductivity monitoring component 10 is installed in the first maintenance tank 16. By utilizing the changes in pH value after long-term maintenance with sodium bisulfite solution and the changes in residual chlorine after long-term maintenance with sodium hypochlorite solution, the addition of reagents is controlled, and conductivity is used to measure the degree of turbidity in the water in the maintenance tank, thereby ensuring the cleanliness of the water in the maintenance tank.

[0031] like Figure 1 As shown, the maintenance fluid circulation unit includes a first circulation pump 1, a first filter 2, a level gauge 9, a second filter 11, a second circulation pump 14, a first water supply valve 21, and a second water supply valve 22; both the first maintenance tank 16 and the second maintenance tank 17 are equipped with level gauges 9.

The circulation pipelines of the first maintenance tank 16 and the second maintenance tank 17 are connected through a first connecting valve 7 and a second connecting valve 20. The use of filters in the circulation pipelines effectively removes impurities generated during the maintenance process, purifies the water quality, and maintains the stability of the maintenance fluid. The first circulation pump 1, the second circulation pump 14, the first water supply valve 21, and the second water supply valve 22 are all connected to the control system 3 for signal transmission to achieve automatic control.

[0032] In this embodiment, a control method based on the above-mentioned integrated membrane element maintenance device is also provided, including liquid level control of the first maintenance tank 16 and the second maintenance tank 17, circulation control of the maintenance solution, water exchange control of the first maintenance tank 16 and the second maintenance tank 17, residual chlorine control of the first maintenance tank 16, pH control of the second maintenance tank 17, chemical dosing control, and maintenance mode switching control.

[0033] The liquid level control of the first maintenance tank 16 and the second maintenance tank 17 includes: the liquid level gauge 9 feeds back the liquid level information of the first maintenance tank 16 and the second maintenance tank 17 to the control system 3. If the liquid level height fed back by the liquid level gauge 9 is lower than 1m, water replenishment is started. When the liquid level height fed back by the liquid level gauge 9 reaches 1.1m, water replenishment is stopped. pH and conductivity detection are stopped during water replenishment.

[0034] The water change control for the first maintenance tank 16 and the second maintenance tank 17 includes the following: when the conductivity monitoring of the first maintenance tank 16 or the second maintenance tank 17 reaches the limit, the water in the first maintenance tank 16 or the second maintenance tank 17 is replaced by opening the drain valve. When the liquid level reaches 0.1m, the water replenishment valve is opened, and water is replenished to 1.1m before stopping. During water replenishment, pH and conductivity monitoring are stopped. Specifically, if the average conductivity of the water in the second maintenance tank 17 is higher than 15ms / cm or the conductivity of the water in the first maintenance tank 16 is higher than 5ms / cm, the drain valve of the corresponding tank is opened for drainage.

[0035] The pH control of the second maintenance tank 17 includes: the pH and conductivity monitoring component 8 transmits pH data to the control system 3 every 10 seconds; the control system 3 calculates the average pH value every minute; if the pH is lower than 3, the discharge valve of the reagent tank 4 is opened, and the first screw feeder 5 feeds the reagent into the second maintenance tank 17; the reagent feeding is stopped when the pH value is greater than 4 in subsequent single-minute tests.

[0036] The residual chlorine control of the first maintenance tank 16 includes: the residual chlorine and conductivity monitoring component 10 transmits conductivity data to the control system 3 every 10 seconds, the control system 3 calculates the average value every minute, and if the average residual chlorine value is lower than 2 mg / L, the discharge valve of the agent tank 4 is opened, and the second screw feeder 6 puts the agent into the first maintenance tank 16. The agent addition is turned off when the subsequent single-minute detection data reaches 2 mg / L or higher.

[0037] The maintenance mode switching control includes controlling the operation of the first circulation pump 1, the first connecting valve 7, the second circulation pump 14, and the second connecting valve 20 according to the type of membrane element that needs maintenance, so as to achieve the switching of different maintenance modes.

[0038] Specifically, when all maintenance is performed on ultrafiltration membrane 13, the removable partition between the first maintenance box 16 and the second maintenance box 17 is manually removed, and the ultrafiltration membrane 13 is placed in the first maintenance box 16 and the second maintenance box 17. The control system 3 switches to the sodium hypochlorite maintenance mode. The control system 3 controls the opening of the first connecting valve 7 on the side of the first maintenance box 16 and the second connecting valve 20 at the water inlet of the first maintenance box 16 and the second maintenance box 17. The control system 3 first monitors whether the liquid level meets the requirements based on the data information fed back by the level gauge 9. According to the liquid level, the first water supply valve 21 and the second water supply valve 22 are opened. When the water supply level reaches 1.1m, the water supply valve is automatically closed. After the valve is closed, the residual chlorine and conductivity monitoring component 10 is opened, and the sodium hypochlorite dosing control and the second circulation pump 14 are activated. The flow rate of the second circulation pump 14 is maintained at 5m³ / h.

[0039] When all reverse osmosis membranes 12 are being maintained, a partition is installed between the first maintenance tank 16 and the second maintenance tank 17, separating the first maintenance tank 16 and the second maintenance tank 17 into three 1.2m long storage areas. The control system 3 switches to the sodium bisulfite maintenance mode. The control system 3 controls the opening of the first connecting valve 7 on the side of the first maintenance tank 16 and the second connecting valve 20 at the inlet of the first maintenance tank 16 and the second maintenance tank 17. The control system 3 first monitors whether the liquid level has reached the required level based on the data information fed back by the level gauge 9. According to the liquid level, the first water supply valve 21 and the second water supply valve 22 are opened. When the water supply level reaches 1.1m, the water supply valves are automatically closed. After the water supply is completed, the pH and conductivity monitoring component 8 is turned on, and the sodium bisulfite reagent addition control and the first circulation pump 1 are turned on. The flow rate of the first circulation pump 1 is maintained at 5m³ / h.

[0040] When the reverse osmosis membrane 12, ultrafiltration membrane 13, DTRO membrane 19, and nanofiltration membrane are maintained simultaneously, the second maintenance box 17 is divided into three storage areas: a DTRO membrane storage area, a reverse osmosis membrane storage area, and a nanofiltration membrane storage area. Membrane rods for storing the DTRO membranes are installed and bolted to the bottom of the box. After completion, the nanofiltration membrane, reverse osmosis membrane 12, and DTRO membrane 19 are placed in the designated areas. All partitions in the first maintenance box 16 are removed, and the ultrafiltration membrane 13 is placed inside. The control system 3 switches to the mixed maintenance mode. The control system 3 first monitors whether the liquid level meets the requirements based on the data information fed back by the liquid level gauge 9. According to the liquid level, the first water supply valve 21 and the second water supply valve 22 are opened. When the water supply level reaches 1.1m, the water supply valves are automatically closed. After the water supply valves are closed, the pH and conductivity monitoring component 8 and the residual chlorine and conductivity monitoring component 10 are opened. The dosing control of sodium bisulfite and sodium hypochlorite is started and circulated with the first circulation pump 1 and the second circulation pump 14. The flow rate of the first circulation pump 1 and the second circulation pump 14 is maintained at 5m³ / h.

[0041] In this embodiment, the pH changes of sodium bisulfite solution and the residual chlorine changes of sodium hypochlorite solution after long-term maintenance are used to control the addition of chemicals, and conductivity is used to measure the turbidity of the water in the maintenance tank, thereby ensuring the cleanliness of the water in the maintenance tank. This achieves automatic monitoring of membrane maintenance, and the control system automatically adds chemicals and replenishes water according to the monitoring indicators. The addition of a filtration system ensures the retention of pollutants, greatly saving manpower and ensuring the stability of membrane maintenance. At the same time, the maintenance device of this invention is also suitable for the maintenance of reverse osmosis, nanofiltration, ultrafiltration, DTRO membranes, etc. in other wastewater treatment, and has a wide range of applications.
