[0002] Membrane aerated biofilm reactor MABR can achieve nitrification and denitrification simultaneously, with a theoretical oxygen utilization rate of nearly 100% and extremely low energy consumption. It is currently a very promising sewage treatment process.

[0003] Micro-polluted waters usually refer to waters whose water quality indicators partially exceed the Class III standard of the Surface Water Environmental Quality Standard, but whose pollution level is relatively low. There are many kinds of pollutants in such waters, including organic matter, ammonia nitrogen, nitrate nitrogen, phosphorus, heavy metals and pesticides, etc. Their concentrations are usually low and difficult to effectively remove using conventional sewage treatment processes. The existence of micro-polluted waters not only affects the safety of drinking water, but may also have long-term impacts on the ecosystem through the food chain.

[0004] The current difficulties in governance are: 1. There are many types of pollutants and their concentration is low: pollutants in slightly polluted waters include organic matter, ammonia nitrogen, nitrate nitrogen, phosphorus, heavy metals and pesticides. These pollutants are of many types and usually have low concentrations, making it difficult to effectively remove them through conventional water treatment processes; 2. Limitations of treatment technology: Existing treatment technologies are often difficult to adapt to the complexity of slightly polluted waters. For example, although biological treatment technology is low-cost and highly efficient, it is difficult to achieve ideal treatment effects due to the low COD, where microorganisms are not easy to grow. In addition, due to the limitations of terrain conditions, treatment needs to be tailored to local conditions. Current treatment measures have limitations and the effects are not ideal.

Furthermore, the bioaffinity coating is coated on the surface of the hollow fiber membrane using a biocompatible material, including chitosan and collagen, and the oxygen-permeable waterproof coating is coated on the surface of the hollow fiber membrane using a silicone rubber formula mixture. The hollow fiber membrane uses a polymer hydrophobic membrane of polytetrafluoroethylene or polyvinylidene fluoride.

[0023] The structure imitates the structure and function of eelgrass in nature. Through special designs, such as coated hollow fiber aeration membrane filaments 1-1 and special plastic parts, it simulates the gas exchange mechanism of the lungs to improve sewage treatment efficiency. The bionic eelgrass device can adapt to different water quality conditions and has good applicability for sewage treatment in slightly polluted waters. It takes ecological balance into consideration and helps to restore and maintain water ecology by simulating the morphology of natural plants, while reducing interference with the environment.

[0024] In a specific embodiment, as shown in the attached Figure 1As shown, the air inlet and outlet 2 and the connecting pipes thereof are a set tube in which the inner tube 2-1 is placed in the outer tube 2-2, and the inner tube 2-1 and the outer tube 2-2 are used for air intake and air exhaust respectively; through the separate air intake and air outlet designs of the inner ring 1-2-1 and the outer ring 1-2-2, and the set tube design in which the inner tube 2-1 is placed in the outer tube 2-2, the device can achieve efficient oxygen supply and carbon dioxide discharge, and promote water purification.

[0027] It can ensure good stability when placed in water and is not prone to sliding or shifting. It can also improve safety during operation and avoid accidental slips during installation or maintenance due to the smooth surface.

[0028] The present invention is a bionic eelgrass for use in slightly polluted waters, and its specific principle is: Step 1: The two ends of the plurality of coated hollow fiber aeration membrane filaments 1-1 are respectively glued and fixed on the inner circle 1-2-1 and the outer circle 1-2-2 of the plastic product of the fixed glue-filling base 1-2 prepared by the mold. After the glue is cured, the head is partially cut off to expose the opening of the hollow fiber aeration membrane filament 1-1 for air intake and air outlet, thereby obtaining the bionic eel grass bundle 1; Step 2, connect the fixed glue-filled base 1-2 of the prepared bionic eel grass bundle 1 with the five-way connector 4 prepared by the mold, and at the same time, connect multiple pipeline frames 3 with the corresponding five-way connectors 4 respectively to achieve the connection of multiple bionic eel grass bundles 1, connect the air inlet and outlet 2 with the corresponding five-way connector 4 to achieve the purpose of air intake and air outlet, and if the five-way connector 4 has redundant connection outlets, it is sealed with a cover; Step three, install and fix the assembled bionic eel grass at the bottom of the river water area, extend one end of the air inlet and outlet 2 out of the water surface, connect the inner tube 2-1 of the air inlet and outlet 2 to the fan, and the outer tube 2-2 is directly connected to the atmosphere. There is gas flowing inside the multiple hollow fiber aeration membrane fibers 1-1, and there are microorganisms in the silt at the bottom of the river, which will slowly attach to the hollow fiber aeration membrane fibers 1-1. The natural flow of river water is used to make the microorganisms on the surface of the hollow fiber aeration membrane fibers 1-1 remove pollutants in the water body, thereby achieving the treatment effect.

The coating on the surface of the membrane fiber has biological affinity, and nitrifying bacteria are easily adsorbed on the membrane surface and are not easy to lose. The microorganisms in the silt at the bottom of the river will slowly adhere to the surface of the membrane fiber. The inner tube 2-1 is connected to the fan for air intake, and the outer tube 2-2 is directly connected to the atmosphere for air outlet. The gas flow inside the membrane provides a suitable growth environment for the microorganisms. The natural flow of river water is utilized to enable the microorganisms attached to the surface of the membrane fiber to remove pollutants in the water body, thereby achieving the effect of treating sewage in slightly polluted water areas.

[0030] The above are only preferred embodiments of the present invention and are not intended to limit the present invention. Any modifications, equivalent substitutions, improvements, etc. made within the spirit and principles of the present invention should be included in the protection scope of the present invention.
