For example, they may refer to fixed connections, detachable connections, or integral connections; mechanical connections or electrical connections; direct connections or indirect connections through an intermediate medium; and internal connections between two components. Those skilled in the art will understand the specific meanings of the above terms in this disclosure based on the specific circumstances.

[0024] Example: like Figure 1 As shown, the present invention proposes a wastewater recycling system for a water electrolysis hydrogen production plant. The recycling system specifically relies on the treatment process of a wastewater pretreatment system 1, a cascade membrane concentration system 2, a concentrated water de-hardening system 3, a forced induced crystallization deep defluorination reactor 4, a deamination system 5, an MVR evaporation system 6, an activated carbon adsorption device 7, a sludge concentration tank 8 and a sludge filter press 9. The sludge and miscellaneous salts generated in the treatment project are sent to a third-party waste treatment center for treatment; the wastewater pretreatment system 1, the cascade membrane concentration system 2, the concentrated water de-hardening system 3, the forced induced crystallization deep defluorination reactor 4, the deamination system 5, the MVR evaporation system 6 and the activated carbon adsorption device 7 are arranged in sequence through multiple pipelines; the products treated by the multi-media filter 13 and the ultrafiltration module 21 are again transported to the wastewater regulating tank 11 for a new round of recycling treatment; Wastewater pretreatment system 1 is used to reduce the hardness of wastewater and remove Ca 2+ Mg 2+and other substances to prevent the membrane system from being blocked; the wastewater pretreatment system 1 includes a wastewater regulating tank 11, a dual-alkali de-hardening device 12 and a multi-media filter 13, and the wastewater regulating tank 11, the dual-alkali de-hardening device 12 and the multi-media filter 13 are arranged in sequence; the water quality indicators such as wastewater quality, water volume, pH or temperature change greatly with the drainage time. In order to prevent the treatment structures or buildings from being impacted by the peak water volume or concentration of wastewater, the wastewater regulating tank 11 is used to treat the wastewater in a homogeneous and uniform manner to reduce the impact on the back-end system; the dual-alkali de-hardening device 12 removes the hardness of the wastewater by adding alkali, sodium carbonate, flocculants and coagulants; however, due to the high operating requirements of the electrolysis facilities in this project, a certain amount of scale inhibitors are added to the cooling circulating water and desalted water, which causes problems for the de-hardening of the wastewater. The wastewater of this project enters the first zone of the de-hardening reactor after passing through the regulating tank, and alkali solution is added to the first zone to adjust the pH value to the range of 10-11. After the pH value is adjusted, the wastewater enters the second zone, and sodium carbonate is added to the wastewater to capture the Ca in the wastewater. 2+ Mg 2+ and other substances, and at the same time, flocculants and coagulants are added to the wastewater. The wastewater after flocculation and precipitation enters the third zone of the reactor and acid is added to adjust the pH to 6.5-7, and then enters the multi-media filtration system; the multi-media filter 13 uses a filter medium to remove suspended impurities from water with higher turbidity to clarify the water. In this step, the water with higher turbidity passes through a granular or non-granular material of a certain thickness under a certain pressure, thereby effectively removing suspended impurities and clarifying the water. The filter medium can be any one of quartz sand, anthracite and manganese sand. Quartz sand is used in this embodiment.

[0025] The cascade membrane concentration system 2 includes an ultrafiltration module 21 and an RO reverse osmosis membrane group 22 for secondary treatment, wherein the ultrafiltration module 21 is used to further remove suspended matter in the wastewater; in the membrane separation process driven by the wastewater inlet pump pressure in the ultrafiltration module 21, the liquid passes through the ultrafiltration, and the ultrafiltration membrane retains the large molecular particles on one side of the membrane to become concentrated, while the small molecules flow to the other side with the solute and become the permeate; the pore size of the ultrafiltration membrane is 0.04μm; the RO reverse osmosis membrane group 22 consists of a first section of RO membrane, a second section of SWRO membrane and a third section of S It is composed of a TRO membrane; the wastewater is concentrated through a first stage RO membrane, a second stage SWRO membrane, and a third stage STRO membrane, the fresh water is reused, and the concentrated water enters the MVR evaporation system for evaporation; the RO reverse osmosis membrane is a membrane separation process driven by pressure. The reverse osmosis process is the reverse process of nature. In order to generate reverse osmosis pressure during use, a water pump is required to apply pressure to the salty wastewater to overcome the natural osmotic pressure, thereby allowing the water to pass through the reverse osmosis membrane, while impurities such as dissolved salt in the water are blocked on the other side of the reverse osmosis membrane.

[0026] The brine de-hardening system 3 removes the hardness of the brine output from the cascade membrane concentration system 2 by adding alkali, sodium carbonate, flocculants, and coagulants through flocculation and sedimentation. To prevent clogging of the membrane system and extend its service life, a scale inhibitor is added to the membrane system. During the membrane concentration purification process, the fresh water formed reaches the drinking water standard of pH 6.5-8.5, fluoride <1mg / L, total dissolved solids TDS <1000mg / L, and total hardness <450mg / L after being filtered through activated carbon. However, the brine significantly increases its TDS, fluoride, and total hardness due to membrane concentration. Therefore, the small amount of brine produced is de-hardened. Alkali solution is added to the brine de-hardening system 3 to adjust the pH value of the brine to the range of 11-11.7. A pH value below 11 will affect the subsequent flocculation effect. Scale inhibitors are added during the membrane treatment process, and their concentration increases significantly after membrane concentration. After the pH value is adjusted, the wastewater enters the second zone, where sodium carbonate is added to capture Ca in the wastewater. 2+ Mg 2+ At the same time, flocculants and coagulants are added to the wastewater, and the wastewater after flocculation and precipitation enters the defluorination reactor.

[0027] Forced induced crystallization deep defluorination reactor 4 is used to remove F from wastewater - Ions; The defluorination reactor proposed in Forced Induced Crystallization Deep Defluorination Reactor 4 utilizes a three-zone design. De-hardened concentrated water enters Zone 1, where acid is added to adjust the pH to 6.5-7. The wastewater with the adjusted pH enters Reaction Zone 2, where a multi-point coordination defluoridant is added. The defluoridant and fluoride in the wastewater are forced to complex and crystallize, then enter the flocculation and sedimentation zone. Flocculant and coagulant are added to Zone 3 to separate the crystals through flocculation and sedimentation. The defluoridant to fluoride ratio in the wastewater is 30:1-40:1, and the fluoride concentration in the concentrated water is as low as 1 mg / L.

[0028] After defluorination, the concentrated water enters the deamination system 5, which is a deamination tower. The deamination system 5 uses the breakpoint chlorination method to remove ammonia. Sodium hypochlorite is added to the wastewater to convert ammonia nitrogen into nitrogen gas, and the sodium hypochlorite is reduced to chloride ions. The MVR evaporation system 6 is implemented by combining the MVR process with mother liquor drying. The MVR process has the characteristics of small footprint and low operating energy consumption. The MVR evaporation system 6 includes an MVR evaporator and a mother liquor dryer. The water vapor generated by the mother liquor dryer enters the ultrafiltration module 21 and the wastewater regulating tank 11 respectively to adjust the temperature of the ultrafiltration module 21 and the wastewater regulating tank 11. The evaporated water vapor (150°C) enters the ultrafiltration module 21 and exchanges heat with the wastewater in the ultrafiltration module 21. On the one hand, the operating temperature of the ultrafiltration module 21 is maintained between 5-25°C. On the other hand, the water vapor condenses and enters the activated carbon adsorption device 7. After treatment, it is used for domestic drinking water or reused in the desalination station or circulating water field of the electrolytic hydrogen production system. The evaporated crystalline salt is outsourced for treatment. The activated carbon adsorption device 7 is installed at the output of the cascade membrane concentration system 2 and the condensate output of the MVR evaporation system 6. By utilizing the large surface area of ​​the activated carbon to adsorb organic matter in the water and excess chloride after chlorination and deammoniation, it ensures that the effluent meets drinking water standards and the requirements of cooling water and desalted water for the electrolytic hydrogen production system. Specifically, the input end of the activated carbon adsorption device 7 is connected to the fresh water output pipeline of the RO reverse osmosis membrane group 22 and the water vapor condensation pipeline after drying in the MVR evaporation system 6, and the output end of the activated carbon adsorption device 7 is connected to the recycled water tank of the electrolytic hydrogen production system. The output of the activated carbon adsorption device 7 accounts for more than 95% of the total amount of saline wastewater and cooling circulation tower wastewater from the electrolytic hydrogen production system. The activated carbon adsorption device 7 has an outlet water pH of 6.5-7.5, a total dissolved solids (TDS) concentration of less than 400 mg / L, fluorine of less than 0.1 mg / L, a total hardness of less than 1 mg / L, and a COD of less than 10 mg / L.

[0029] The above specific embodiment is merely an optional embodiment of the present invention. Based on the technical solution of the present invention and the relevant inspiration of the above embodiment, those skilled in the art can make various alternative improvements and combinations to the above specific embodiment.
