Description

Technical Field

[0001] The present invention relates to the technical field of water treatment systems, and more specifically to a composite circulating artificial wetland tailwater treatment system and method thereof. Background Art

[0002] In wetland systems, insoluble organic particles in sewage are mainly removed through the interception, filtration and sedimentation of substrates and plants, while soluble organic matter is mainly absorbed by microorganisms in wetlands and decomposed, removed or utilized through anaerobic and aerobic biological metabolism of microorganisms. The purification effect of artificial wetlands on organic pollutants is related to factors such as the type of system, substrate type, reoxygenation conditions, residence time, and influent water quality. A treatment method that uses aerobic microorganisms (including facultative microorganisms) to carry out biological metabolism in the presence of oxygen to degrade organic matter and make it stable and harmless. Microorganisms use organic pollutants in water as substrates for aerobic metabolism, and after a series of biochemical reactions, they release energy step by step, and finally stabilize as low-energy inorganic matter to achieve the requirements of harmlessness. The main removal pathways of nitrogen in artificial wetland systems include: assimilation and absorption storage by plants and microorganisms, adsorption by substrates, deposition of organic nitrogen, and the production and release of nitrogen gas formed by nitrification and denitrification pathways of microorganisms. The removal of phosphorus in wetland systems mainly relies on the combined action of the matrix, plants and microorganisms, and is achieved through a series of complex chemical, physical and biological processes. Among them, microorganisms such as polyphosphate bacteria mineralize and decompose organic phosphorus compounds and oxidize and reduce inorganic phosphorus compounds and change their solubility through enzymatic reactions. Wetland plants absorb and enrich phosphorus pollutants in sewage directly and transform them into plant bodies. At the same time, plants affect the growth environment of microorganisms through the oxygen transport of roots and stems, indirectly promoting the purification of phosphorus.

[0003] Plants in artificial wetlands can also deliver oxygen to water bodies and increase water activity. Wetland plants also play an important role in controlling water pollution and degrading harmful substances.

[0004] The artificial wetland treatment system has the characteristics of large buffer capacity, good treatment effect, simple process, low investment and low operating cost, which is very suitable for further purification of tailwater from sewage treatment plants. According to the flow mode of sewage, artificial wetlands can be divided into surface flow artificial wetlands, horizontal subsurface flow artificial wetlands and vertical subsurface flow artificial wetlands. However, traditional wetlands cannot enhance the removal of nitrogen and phosphorus and organic matter. Summary of the invention

[0005] 1. Technical problem to be solved by the invention

[0006] In view of the defects and shortcomings of the prior art, the present invention provides a composite circulating artificial wetland tailwater treatment system and method. The present invention combines three wetland systems and strengthens them in a circulating surface flow wetland. The functional zoning is reasonable. The tailwater first enters the vertical submerged flow wetland and the horizontal submerged flow wetland to strengthen the removal of various types of organic matter, nitrogen, phosphorus and other pollutants, and then enters the surface flow wetland. The submerged plants on the bottom of the water and the emergent plants on the surface of the water work together to strengthen the purification of water quality and improve the tailwater purification effect.

[0035] The surface flow wetland 3 is in a ring shape, and multiple groups of vertical subsurface flow wetlands 1 and horizontal subsurface flow wetlands 2 can be arranged in parallel in the inner circle of the surface flow wetland 3 .

[0036] The total thickness of the first multi-layer filler 104 is 150 cm, which includes, from bottom to top, a 40 cm thick pebble layer with a particle size of 50-80 mm, a 60 cm thick biomass filler layer with a particle size of 30-50 mm, a 30 cm thick biomass filler layer with a particle size of 10-30 mm, and a 20 cm thick flake stone layer with a particle size of 5-8 mm.

[0038] Example 2

[0039] from Figure 1-2 It can be seen that the method of a composite circulating artificial wetland tailwater treatment system in this embodiment comprises the following steps:

[0040] Step 1: The tail water to be treated is input into the water distribution main pipe 102 through the water inlet pipe 101 arranged in front of the vertical submerged flow wetland 1, and then the water is evenly distributed through the water distribution perforated pipe 103.

[0044] The vertical subsurface flow wetland 1, the horizontal subsurface flow wetland 2 and the surface flow wetland 3 are connected in series in sequence. The tail water first passes through the water distribution unit of the vertical subsurface flow wetland 1, passes through the first multi-layer filler 104 from bottom to top, collects the tail water after the initial purification, and then enters the perforated pipe water distribution unit of the horizontal subsurface flow wetland 2, flows horizontally through the second multi-layer filler 202, and the tail water after purification is discharged to the circulating plug flow surface flow wetland 3. The tail water is further purified in the surface flow wetland 3 under the action of emergent water, submerged plants and aquatic animals.
