Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] The present invention relates to the technical field of water treatment, and in particular to a water treatment system and process based on the water quality of salt lake groundwater. Background Art
[0002] When carrying out engineering project construction in the salt lake area, the boron and silicon content of groundwater is often high, and some equipment such as steam turbines and air compressor stations have high requirements for water quality. In addition, domestic water also needs to meet relevant national standards. However, the existing single water treatment method is difficult to effectively remove boron and silicon, making it difficult to meet the requirements of equipment and domestic water. Although various water treatment technologies in the prior art, such as reverse osmosis and ion exchange, can remove some pollutants separately, there is no comprehensive water treatment system for plateau salt lake areas. Summary of the invention
[0003] The purpose of the present invention is to solve the deficiencies of the prior art and to provide a boron and silicon removal water treatment system and process based on the water quality characteristics of salt lake groundwater, which is suitable for meeting the water quality requirements of industrial equipment and domestic water.
[0004] To achieve the above object, the present invention provides a water treatment system based on salt lake groundwater quality, comprising: Ultrafiltration device, used to remove suspended particles from water; A primary reverse osmosis unit for the initial removal of dissolved solids from the water; A two-stage reverse osmosis unit to further remove residual salt from the water; Boron removal ion exchanger, used to remove boron from water; EDI device is used to remove conductive ions from water.
[0005] Preferably, the ultrafiltration device comprises an ultrafiltration membrane with a filtration accuracy of 0.1 μm, which is used to remove fine particles in water.
[0006] Preferably, the ultrafiltration device is connected to the primary reverse osmosis device, the primary reverse osmosis device is connected to the secondary reverse osmosis device, the secondary reverse osmosis device is connected to a boron removal ion exchanger, and the boron removal ion exchanger is connected to the EDI device.
[0007] Preferably, the primary reverse osmosis device and the secondary reverse osmosis device each include a plurality of reverse osmosis units, and the particle sizes of soluble solids allowed to pass through the plurality of reverse osmosis units are different.
[0008] The present invention also provides a water treatment process based on salt lake groundwater. The specific process flow is as follows: the production water from the production water supply network enters the raw water tank, is pressurized by the raw water pump and sent to the ultrafiltration device to remove suspended matter in the water, and then enters the primary reverse osmosis device. After desalination by the primary reverse osmosis, it is counted into the primary RO production water tank, and then sent to the secondary reverse osmosis through the secondary RO feed pump for further desalination. The desalted water enters the secondary RO production water tank, and then the exchanger feed pump sends it to the boron removal ion exchanger to remove boron in the water, and then enters the boron removal water tank, and is sent to the EDI device through the EDI feed pump. The resulting water enters the desalted water tank and is pumped to the water use device by the desalted water pump.
[0009] Preferably: After the process, the parameters of the effluent water quality are as follows: Silicon dioxide: ≤20g / L Conductivity: ≤0.2s / cm (25℃).
[0010] Compared with the prior art, the technical solution proposed in this application has the following beneficial effects: in view of the low temperature in the plateau, the present invention adds a heat exchanger device to increase the inlet water temperature in order to protect the membrane treatment (ultrafiltration) device and improve the treatment efficiency in the system; due to the shortage of water resources in the plateau, the measures of "further treatment of primary concentrated water" and "reflux of secondary concentrated water and EDI concentrated water" are added to improve the utilization efficiency of water resources.
