Description

[0002] The mature and used treatment devices for radioactive wastewater in China mainly include chemical precipitation, evaporation, ion exchange, activated carbon adsorption, etc. The above technologies, when used alone, have defects or deficiencies in terms of scope of application, cost, treatment capacity, treatment effect, etc.

[0003] Chemical precipitation treatment is suitable for treating radioactive wastewater with high salt content and large volume, but its decontamination factor is low, the equipment is large, and it requires more chemical reagents and produces a large amount of secondary waste. It is generally only used for pretreatment, not as the main treatment process; evaporation treatment has good adaptability to most wastewaters, and is still the main means of radioactive wastewater treatment, but it is not suitable for treating wastewater containing foaming and volatile components. The equipment is large, occupies a large area, and has high operating energy consumption, and maintenance and repair are relatively complicated; ion exchange is the most commonly used treatment process for nuclear power plant radioactive wastewater systems, but the resin bed is not suitable for treating wastewater with high salt content or solid content: when there is more salt in the wastewater, the resin will quickly become saturated and fail; when the solid content in the wastewater is high, the resin bed is prone to cause flow blockage, so the wastewater needs to be pretreated at this time; the activated carbon adsorption treatment process is suitable for treating trace organic matter, I and particles. It is a pretreatment method for radioactive wastewater, and the adsorption effect on most radioactive nuclides is poor.

[0004] At present, there are many units in China that generate less radioactive wastewater, such as "radioactive medical institutions, nuclear technology application institutions, and universities." Because these units generate less wastewater, they generally lack independent wastewater treatment facilities and usually store radioactive wastewater in a temporary manner, relying on radioactive wastewater treatment units for treatment. The treatment equipment and devices used in the above-mentioned treatment technologies occupy a large area and are all fixed. In addition to being used for the treatment of radioactive wastewater in the unit itself, it is difficult to provide radioactive wastewater treatment services for the above-mentioned units.

The high-efficiency oil removal filter 3 is a filter with ultra-fine pore filter tubes as the main filter material, which is used to remove grease and impurities in the radioactive wastewater;

[0050] The ultrafiltration module includes an ultrafiltration device 4 and an ultrafiltration water tank 13. The ultrafiltration device 4 is for secondary filtration. The membrane fibers of the ultrafiltration membrane are hollow fiber membranes. The membrane fibers are made of PVDF material and have an asymmetric porous structure that is interconnected inside, so that the water flux of the hydrophilic hollow fiber membrane becomes larger. It can separate the fluid into two different parts, so that one or several substances can pass through, while other substances are separated. The ultrafiltration module is connected to the pre-filtration module through a stainless steel pipeline, an electric valve 31, and a manual valve 33. The two modules mainly use pretreatment technology;

[0051] It should be noted that a pressure sensor and a flow meter 32 are provided on the ultrafiltration device 4 for monitoring relevant parameters of the ultrafiltration device 4; a magnetic flap level gauge 14 is provided on the ultrafiltration water tank 13, which can directly read the liquid level of the ultrafiltration water tank 13; an ultrafiltration water tank 13 drain pipe is provided at the bottom of the ultrafiltration water tank 13, which can be connected to an external pipeline to drain the residual liquid inside the ultrafiltration water tank 13. The ultrafiltration water tank 13 is provided with three liquid level sensors, namely, low, medium and high. When the liquid level in the ultrafiltration water tank 13 is at a low level, the waste liquid delivery pump 1 is started to store water in the ultrafiltration water tank 13, the first-level RO booster pump 8 and the first-level high-pressure pump 9 are not started, and the subsequent processing module is not operated; when the liquid level in the ultrafiltration water tank 13 reaches a medium level, the waste liquid delivery pump 1 is started to store water in the ultrafiltration water tank 13, the first-level RO booster pump 8 and the first-level high-pressure pump 9 are started, and the subsequent processing module is operated; when the liquid level in the ultrafiltration water tank 13 reaches a high level, the waste liquid delivery pump 1 is stopped, no water is stored in the ultrafiltration water tank 13, the first-level RO booster pump 8 and the first-level high-pressure pump 9 are started, and the subsequent processing module is operated.

[0052] The reverse osmosis module includes a first RO filter device and a second RO filter device, which are used to remove impurities. The selective permeability of the semipermeable membrane is used to separate the solvent from the solute in the solution under the drive of the pressure difference, which can effectively remove impurities such as dissolved salts, radionuclides, and organic matter in the wastewater, thereby obtaining high-quality purified water.

[0053] The radioactive adsorption module includes an ion exchange bed 5, which removes the residual radioactive nuclides from the reverse osmosis through the adsorption of a polishing resin bed equipped with a nuclear grade resin to ensure that the treated radioactive wastewater meets the discharge standards.

[0054] Specifically, the waste liquid delivery pump 1, the self-cleaning filter 2 and the high-efficiency oil removal filter 3 are connected in sequence through a stainless steel pipeline, an electric valve 31 and a manual valve 33;

[0055] A waste liquid inlet pipe opening 22 is provided at the front end of the waste liquid delivery pump 1, and the inlet pipe opening is quickly connected to an external waste liquid supply pipe through a quick connector;

[0056] The outlet pipeline of the waste liquid delivery pump 1 is provided with instruments such as a pressure sensor, a flow sensor, a pH meter, and a conductivity sensor, which are used to monitor the relevant parameters of the waste water entering the system.

[0057] Among them, a pressure difference sensor is provided on the self-cleaning filter 2, which is used to detect the pressure of the self-cleaning filter 2 and perform self-cleaning according to the pressure difference;

[0058] A pressure transmitter is arranged at the front end of the high-efficiency oil removal filter 3 , and a pressure gauge is arranged on the high-efficiency oil removal filter 3 to monitor the pressure parameters of the high-efficiency oil removal filter 3 .

[0059] Furthermore, the primary RO device is mainly composed of a primary RO booster pump 8, a primary high-pressure pump 9, and a primary RO component 6. A pressure sensor is arranged on the primary high-pressure pump 9. When the pressure is higher than the safety value, the primary high-pressure pump 9 stops running. When the pressure is lower than the set value, the primary high-pressure pump 9 starts. The primary RO component 6 is provided with instruments such as a pressure sensor, an inlet end flow sensor, a conductivity sensor, and an outlet end flow sensor for monitoring the inlet end pressure, inlet and outlet flow rates, and conductivity of produced water of the primary RO component 6. An RO device venting pipe 20 is arranged at the outlet end of the primary RO component 6 to vent the residual waste liquid in the reverse osmosis device through an external pipeline.

[0060] Furthermore, the secondary RO device is composed of a secondary high-pressure pump 10 and a secondary RO (reverse osmosis) component; a pressure sensor and a pH meter are arranged on the secondary high-pressure pump 10. When the pressure is higher than the safety value, the secondary high-pressure pump 10 stops running, and when the pressure is lower than the set value, the secondary high-pressure pump 10 starts. A pressure sensor, an inlet end flow sensor, a conductivity sensor, an outlet end flow sensor and other instruments are arranged on the secondary RO component 7 to monitor the inlet end pressure, inlet and outlet flow, conductivity of produced water and other related parameters of the secondary RO device. By arranging an RO device vent pipe 20 at the outlet end of the secondary RO device, the residual waste liquid in the reverse osmosis device is vented through an external pipeline.

[0061] Furthermore, the radioactive adsorption module is composed of a booster pump 11, an ion exchange bed 5, and an air compressor 18 in addition to the ion exchange bed 5. A pressure transmitter is provided at the rear end of the booster pump 11, and the booster pump 11 is used to monitor the pressure entering the ion exchange bed 5;

[0062] A pressure sensor is provided at the rear end of the air compressor 18 to monitor the pressure of the compressed air system;

[0063] The ion exchange bed 5 is provided with a resin feeding pipe port 26 and a resin discharge pipe port 27 for replacing the resin of the ion exchange bed 5. The qualified discharge pipeline of the ion exchange bed 5 is provided with a conductivity sensor and a flow sensor for monitoring relevant parameters of qualified discharge water.

[0064] It should be noted that the present invention uses a combination of "pretreatment + reverse osmosis + ion exchange" to treat wastewater with low radioactivity levels, making up for the technical defects of single technology in treating radioactive wastewater. Pretreatment technology can remove impurities such as suspended matter, colloidal particles, microorganisms, and oily substances in radioactive wastewater; reverse osmosis technology removes radioactive nuclides and most salts in ionized form in radioactive wastewater; ion exchange technology removes radioactive nuclides remaining in reverse osmosis. Through the three combined application technologies, radioactive wastewater is purified, the volume of wastewater is reduced, and it is ensured that the treated radioactive wastewater can meet the discharge standards.

[0065] The main functional modules of the technology adopted by the present invention include a pre-filtration module, an ultrafiltration module, a primary reverse osmosis module, a secondary reverse osmosis module, a radioactive adsorption module, a dosing module, and an automatic backwashing module. The pretreatment module consists of two modules, a pre-filtration module and an ultrafiltration module, including a wastewater delivery pump, a self-cleaning filter 2, a high-efficiency oil removal filter 3, an ultrafiltration device 4, and an ultrafiltration water tank 13; the reverse osmosis module consists of a primary high-pressure pump 9, a primary reverse osmosis, a secondary high-pressure pump 10, and a secondary reverse osmosis; the radioactive adsorption module consists of a booster pump 11 and an ion exchange bed 5; the dosing module consists of a scale inhibitor dosing device 15 and a pH adjustment dosing device 16; the automatic backwashing module is mainly composed of a cleaning pump 12 and its control system.

[0066] The radioactive wastewater is filtered and purified by the pretreatment module, and the wastewater treated by the high-efficiency oil removal filter 3 enters the ultrafiltration filter to further remove organic matter, metal ions, colloidal radionuclides, etc. in the water; secondly, the wastewater after the pretreatment module is pressurized by the first-level high-pressure pump 9 to enter the first-level reverse osmosis filtration, and the first-level reverse osmosis product water is pressurized by the second-level high-pressure pump 10 to enter the second-level reverse osmosis filtration, and the second-level reverse osmosis product water meets the standards and is directly discharged; at the same time, an automatic backwashing module is equipped to automatically backwash the ultrafiltration, first-level, second-level reverse osmosis and pipelines. The water after reverse osmosis filtration is pressurized by the booster pump 11 to the ion exchange bed 5, and the polishing resin bed exchanges the radioactive nuclide ions with the resin to further remove the radioactive nuclides in the wastewater, ensuring that the entire system has stable water discharge that meets the standards.

[0067] The radioactive wastewater is transported to the self-cleaning filter 2 and the high-efficiency oil removal filter 3 by the wastewater delivery pump. After removing impurities such as suspended matter, colloidal particles, microorganisms and oil-containing substances in the wastewater, it enters the ultrafiltration device 4. After removing organic matter, metal ions and radionuclides in colloidal state, it enters the ultrafiltration water tank 13. Then it enters the primary reverse osmosis device through the primary booster pump and the primary high-pressure pump 9, and then enters the secondary reverse osmosis device through the secondary high-pressure pump 10. The secondary reverse osmosis concentrated water returns to the ultrafiltration water tank 13 for circulation purification. The water produced by the secondary reverse osmosis device is sampled and analyzed. If the water is qualified, it is discharged in compliance with the standards; if the water is unqualified, it enters the ion exchange bed 5 through the booster pump 11 for adsorption treatment. The water produced by the ion exchange bed 5 is sampled and analyzed. If the water is unqualified, it is returned to the wastewater collection pool. If the water is qualified, it is discharged in compliance with the standards.

[0068] Example 2, reference Figures 3 to 6 , this embodiment is different from the first embodiment in that: it also includes a cleaning module, and the cleaning module is connected with each module through a cleaning pipeline;

[0069] The cleaning module includes a cleaning pump 12 and a PH regulating and dosing device 16. Tap water is added into the medicine box through the tap water inlet pipe 25. By controlling the switches of the relevant electric valves 31 and manual valves 33, the cleaning of each module is achieved. The cleaning water of the two-stage reverse osmosis component flows back to the ultrafiltration water tank 13 through the cleaning pipeline, and the cleaning water of the ultrafiltration device 4, the high-efficiency oil removal filter 3, and the self-cleaning filter 2 flows back to the wastewater feed tank through the residual liquid reflux pipe 24.

[0070] Specifically, it also includes a dosing module, which is used to adjust the pH value of the wastewater. The dosing module includes an antiscalant dosing device 15, a stirring motor for the pH regulating dosing device, and a stirring motor for the antiscalant dosing device 15. The suction port of the first-level high-pressure pump 9 of the membrane filtration module of the device is connected to the antiscalant dosing device 15 through a corresponding pipeline to prevent the reverse osmosis membrane from scaling. The front end of the secondary RO (reverse osmosis) device of the device is connected to the pH regulating dosing device 16 through a corresponding pipeline to adjust the pH of the wastewater.

[0071] Furthermore, the surfaces of the membrane elements of the high-efficiency oil removal filter 3, the ultrafiltration device 4, and the two-stage reverse osmosis device are flushed at low pressure and high flow rate by liquid such as tap water to prevent the deposition of these pollutants.

[0072] The rest of the structure is the same as that of Example 1.

[0073] It should be noted that a scale inhibitor dosing pipeline is provided at the rear end of the ultrafiltration water tank 13, and a scale inhibitor is added to the system through a scale inhibitor dosing device 15 to alleviate the scaling tendency of the RO (reverse osmosis) system during operation, thereby reducing the degree of membrane damage during long-term operation. A PH regulator dosing pipeline is provided at the rear end of the primary reverse osmosis device, and a PH regulator is added to the system through a PH regulator dosing device 16 to adjust the acidity and alkalinity of the wastewater.

[0074] A cleaning pump 12 is provided in the system to use tap water to perform low-pressure and high-flow flushing on the surfaces of the membrane elements of the high-efficiency oil removal filter 3, the ultrafiltration device 4, and the two-stage reverse osmosis device, thereby preventing the deposition of these pollutants, effectively reducing the pollution rate, and extending the chemical cleaning cycle.

[0076] 1) Connect drainage plastic hoses to the waste liquid inlet pipe 22, the RO device vent pipe 20, the ion exchange bed 5 discharge pipe 23, and the residual liquid reflux pipe 24 respectively. The other end of the plastic hose is connected to a temporary water tank to collect the production water in the exhaust process and flow it back to the temporary water receiving container.

[0077] 2) Set the low liquid level, middle liquid level and high liquid level limit values ​​of the ultrafiltration water tank 13 on the device operation screen to interlock with the front-end waste liquid delivery pump 1, the first-stage RO booster pump 8 and the first-stage high-pressure pump 9.

[0078] 3) Turn on the "power" switch, start the control system, exhaust system, and video surveillance system, and confirm that all systems are operating normally.

[0079] 4) First select manual mode on the operation screen;

[0080] 5) Water storage operation of the ultrafiltration water tank 13: Manually open the manual outlet valve of the waste liquid delivery pump 1, the manual inlet valve of the self-cleaning filter 2, and the manual valve 33 for concentrated water return of the ultrafiltration device 4.

[0081] 6) Open the concentrated water outlet valve of the self-cleaning filter 2 and the concentrated water reflux valve of the ultrafiltration device 4, start the waste liquid delivery pump 1, open the outlet valve of the self-cleaning filter 2, the inlet valve of the ultrafiltration device 4, and the inlet valve of the ultrafiltration water tank 13, and close the concentrated water outlet valve of the self-cleaning filter 2 and the concentrated water reflux valve of the ultrafiltration device 4.
