[0021] Add materials through the feed port 15, add diatomaceous earth and other adsorbents, and then the explosion-proof reducer 1 drives the anchor stirring system 5 to rotate to improve the washing efficiency;

[0022] The anchor type stirring system 5 is composed of a vertical rod and stirring blades, and the stirring blades are installed on the vertical rod at intervals;

[0023] The back-blowing port 13 is used to blow air into the cylinder body 2. Since the adsorbed sediment will block the filter screen 12 after it falls, the adsorbed sediment can be blown up through the back-blowing port 13 to prevent the adsorbed sediment from being precipitated and forming a blockage.

[0024] As a preferred embodiment of the present invention, the washing and decolorizing module includes an anchor stirring system 5 , which is installed in the cylinder body 2 , and the stirring module drives the anchor stirring system 5 to rotate on the cylinder body 2 .
