Description

Technical Field

[0001] The invention belongs to the technical field of sewage treatment and relates to a double-membrane water purification system for collecting air flotation and sedimentation. Background Art

[0002] The conventional biological contact oxidation wastewater treatment system is as follows Figure 1 As shown, it includes an aerobic pool (1-1), an aeration system, a filler system, and a drainage system. Pretreated sewage enters the pool body, and the pollutants in the sewage are adsorbed and digested by the bacteria on the filler (1-2) to achieve the purpose of water purification. The purified water is discharged through the drain (1-3), and the discharged water needs to be separated from mud and water. The filler system generally includes fillers (1-2) and filler brackets (1-4). The fillers (1-2) are generally soft, semi-soft, and elastic, which can increase the shaking intensity, shake off the aged bacteria on the fillers (1-2), and keep the bacteria updated. The aeration system in the pool generally includes an aeration main pipe (1-5) and an air distribution pipe (1-6) connected thereto. The aeration system is designed to provide oxygen for the bacteria and to shake the fillers (1-2) to update the bacteria.

[0003] The sewage treatment system of the traditional biological contact oxidation method has many defects. Specifically, 1. System defects: Two systems need to be set up in the aerobic pool, the aeration and air distribution system and the filler system. The aging and shedding of the filler is easy to block the air distribution system. The role of aeration is to vibrate the filler to ensure the sludge shedding and renewal and provide dissolved oxygen. In order to ensure strong vibration, the bubbles generated by the aeration system are large, and the dissolved oxygen efficiency is limited, which can only reach about 20% at most. In addition, the treated water is mixed with aged sludge, and further mud and water separation is required. 2. Filler defects: The filler is generally made of aldehyded fiber or polyester yarn or polymer or polyolefin and polyamide materials, with a small specific surface area, hydrophobic material, and slow film formation. The filler is immersed in the pool for a long time, which is easy to harden and degenerate, and the quality is reduced, and it needs to be replaced regularly. Microplastics will be generated under the scouring and friction of the filler, which will increase the microplastic pollution of environmental water resources. Due to the use of flexible fillers, the filler is easy to fall off during long-term shaking, and the processing capacity will deteriorate after falling off, and the pipes and air distribution system will be blocked. Moreover, it is troublesome to replace the filler, and the pool body needs to be emptied for cleaning. When running again, the film needs to be attached again, and the recovery time is long.

[0004] In order to improve the shortcomings of the traditional biological contact oxidation method, Chinese invention patent application CN105923751A (publication date: 2016.09.07) discloses a ceramic membrane and an aerated membrane bioreactor installed with the ceramic membrane, wherein the ceramic membrane includes a ceramic membrane support and a separation layer attached to the ceramic membrane support, wherein: the preparation of the ceramic membrane support includes: mixing and stirring 42% of the ceramic membrane support powder, 2% of the pore-forming agent, 1% of the binder and 55% of the sintering aid by mass percentage, and sintering at a temperature of 960°C for 8h to obtain the ceramic membrane support; coating the film-forming liquid for forming the separation layer on the inner surface of the ceramic membrane support until the surface is uniform, and sintering the dried ceramic membrane coated with the film-forming liquid for forming the separation layer at 800°C to obtain the ceramic membrane support with the separation layer attached; the reactor has the functions of a membrane bioreactor, an aerated membrane bioreactor and a biofilm reactor.

[0005] However, in actual use, it was found that the ceramic membrane was prone to clogging, the perforated tube aeration efficiency was low, and the biofilm was unevenly flushed (the top of the ceramic membrane could not be flushed). These problems greatly reduced the water treatment effect. At the same time, it was necessary to arrange a system outside the double-membrane water treatment system to further separate the light sludge. Summary of the invention

The flushing pipe is controlled by a valve, and the valve is opened when flushing is required, and the valve is normally closed.

[0027] 4.

[0035] The present invention will be further described below with reference to specific embodiments of the present invention. Figure 2-3 :

[0036] A double-membrane water purification system combining air flotation and sedimentation, comprising:

[0037] A tank body 1, wherein the tank body 1 is used to introduce sewage to be purified;

[0038] The aeration and filling system includes a tubular silicon carbide membrane 2, wherein air is introduced at the top of the silicon carbide membrane 2 and exhausted in the circumferential direction to form an aeration system, and a biofilm is attached to the silicon carbide membrane 2 to form a filling system. When sewage is introduced, the silicon carbide membrane 2 and the biofilm adsorb and filter pollutants in the sewage, and degrade the pollutants through bacteria to purify the sewage and form purified water. At the same time, the gas passes through the silicon carbide membrane 2 to generate nano-bubbles or bubble-free aeration to provide dissolved oxygen required by the bacteria.

[0039] Drainage system: an overflow weir 3 for discharging purified water is provided on the top of the tank body 1;

[0040] Air flotation system: When the gas passes through the silicon carbide membrane 2, it is cut into nano-scale bubbles. The nano-bubbles formed by the aeration system act as carriers and attach to the light sludge (including suspended solids SS), driving the light sludge to float, eventually float to the surface, and be discharged from the sludge discharge trough 4 at the top of the tank body 1;

[0041] Mud discharge system: a mud hopper 5 is provided at the bottom of the tank body 1, and the mud hopper 5 is located directly below the aeration and filler system. Heavy sludge (including suspended solids SS) and sludge falling off the aeration and filler system are collected in the mud hopper 5 and discharged after sedimentation;

[0042] The overflow weir 3 and the mud discharge trough 4 are distributed on opposite sides of the pool body 1. A mud scraper 6 is arranged on the top of the pool body 1. The scraper of the mud scraper 6 moves from the side where the overflow weir 3 is located to the side where the mud discharge trough 4 is located to skim off the floating mud. The scraper of the mud scraper 6 is driven by a power device, and the power device is selected from an electric telescopic rod or a combination of a motor and a transmission system. During the movement of the scraper, the floating mud on the water surface is driven to move toward the mud discharge trough 4, and finally enters the mud discharge trough 4 for discharge.

[0043] In this embodiment, the aeration and filling system is provided with multiple groups, each group of aeration and filling system is connected to the air intake branch pipe 7, and the air intake branch pipe 7 is connected to the air intake main pipe 8. The air intake main pipe 8 and / or the air intake branch pipe 7 are provided with a proportional valve 9 for controlling the air intake amount. By controlling the gas amount through the proportional valve 9, the flushing intensity and dissolved oxygen can be controlled, and the sludge amount can also be controlled, so as to achieve the purpose of seasonal and emergency adjustment of the processing capacity.

[0044] The aeration and filler system is accommodated in the frame 10, and the air intake main pipe 8 and the air intake branch pipe 7 are detachably connected by the flange 11. After the detachment, the frame 10 can be lifted out of the tank body 1. The design of lifting by removing the flange 11 is convenient for maintenance and replacement without emptying the tank body 1. When necessary, the silicon carbide membrane 2 can be lifted out for regeneration, and when the membrane pores are blocked, the performance can be restored by chemical washing and high-temperature incineration.

[0045] The axis of the silicon carbide membrane 2 is arranged vertically and distributed in an array. The silicon carbide membrane 2 includes an inner membrane layer 21 and a support layer 22, and a central air hole 23 is formed in the tube. The upper end of the central air hole 23 is an air inlet 24, and the lower end is left with a wash hole 25 for flushing the mud bucket 5. When there are multiple groups of aeration and filling systems, each group of aeration and filling systems corresponds to a group of mud buckets 5. A part of the gas entering the central air hole 23 acts on the mud bucket 5 through the wash hole 25, thereby flushing the mud bucket 5. The wash hole 25 can be controlled by a valve. When flushing is required, the valve is opened, and the valve is normally closed.

[0046] The pore size of the silicon carbide membrane 2 is 10-100nm, the membrane thickness is 10-100μm, the porosity of the support layer 22 is above 40%, and the bacteria forming the biofilm reproduce in the inner pores of the support layer 22 and the outer surface of the silicon carbide membrane 2. Preferably, the porosity of the support layer 22 is above 40%.

[0047] In order to further improve the sewage treatment effect, a triple-effect separator 12 is provided on the overflow weir 3 side in the tank body 1, and a baffle 13 is provided above the triple-effect separator 12. The upper edge height of the baffle 13 is higher than the overflow height of the overflow weir 3, and the scraper of the scraper 6 moves from the inner side of the baffle 13 to the mud discharge trough 4. The triple-effect separator 12 can further treat the sewage. When the sewage enters the tank body 1 near the overflow weir 3 after being treated by the flotation system, aeration and filler system, the triple-effect separator 12 further treats the purified water to separate light sludge and heavy sludge to improve the purification effect. By providing the baffle 13, the light sludge and other floating sludge separated by the triple-effect separator 12 can be prevented from being discharged from the overflow weir 3 with the purified water.

[0048] A mud guide plate 14 is provided inside the mud discharge groove 4, and the mud guide plate 14 is inclined downward from the upper edge of the mud discharge groove 4. By providing the mud guide plate 14, the mud scraper 6 can push the floating mud at the lower layer of the water surface into the mud guide groove along the inclined surface of the mud guide plate 14 when working, so as to improve the mud scraping efficiency.

[0049] The above embodiments are only preferred embodiments of the present invention and are not intended to limit the protection scope of the present invention. Therefore, any equivalent changes made based on the structure, shape, and principle of the present invention should be included in the protection scope of the present invention.
