Description
Technical Field
[0001] This invention belongs to the field of ship ballast water treatment technology, and specifically relates to a high-efficiency ship ballast water nitrogen filling and deoxygenation treatment equipment and method. Background Technology
[0002] Nitrogen-filled deoxygenation treatment of ship ballast water is an important technology for protecting the marine ecological environment. During ship navigation, a large amount of ballast water is carried to maintain balance and stability. However, this ballast water often carries various marine organisms. When ships discharge ballast water in different sea areas, it can easily cause biological invasion and disrupt the local marine ecological balance. The nitrogen-filled deoxygenation treatment technology for ship ballast water was developed to address this problem. This technology involves filling the ballast water tank with nitrogen gas. Utilizing the chemical stability of nitrogen and its resistance to reaction with other substances, the dissolved oxygen in the water is replaced. As nitrogen gas is continuously added, the oxygen content in the ballast water gradually decreases. When the oxygen content drops to a certain level, most of the aerobic organisms carried in the ballast water cannot obtain enough oxygen to sustain their life activities. Their metabolism is inhibited, their growth and reproduction slow down, and they may even die. Through this nitrogen-filled deoxygenation treatment method, the number and activity of organisms carried in the ballast water can be effectively reduced, thereby significantly reducing the potential harm to the marine ecological environment caused by ship ballast water discharge and protecting marine biodiversity and ecological balance.
[0003] With the booming development of global maritime transport, the issue of ballast water treatment has become increasingly prominent and a key issue in the field of marine ecological environment protection. When ships sail between different sea areas, they need to carry a large amount of ballast water to maintain their stability and safety. However, this ballast water often carries various marine organisms, from tiny bacteria and plankton to small aquatic animals. When ships discharge ballast water in other places, these alien organisms may cause serious biological invasions, which can cause great damage to the balance of the local marine ecosystem. According to relevant studies, the deterioration of the marine ecological environment in many regions is closely related to biological invasions caused by ship ballast water discharge, leading to a series of problems such as the reduction of native species and the imbalance of the food chain.
[0004] To address this issue, numerous ship ballast water treatment technologies have emerged. One such attempt is the ship ballast water nitrogen filling and deoxygenation treatment device disclosed in Chinese Patent No. CN221141324U. This device introduces ballast water through an inlet on the top plate and uses components such as a central column, a lifting filter plate, and related sewage discharge mechanisms installed inside the hull to filter and purify the ballast water. Its design concept is to use the coordinated operation of the lifting filter plate and scraper to push impurities out of the sewage discharge port, thereby improving the purity of the water.
[0005] However, in practical applications, this device has revealed many limitations. Its internal floating filter design relies mainly on the buoyancy generated by the rising water flow. This design has inherent flaws. When impurities in the water settle on the outer surface of the filter, it significantly increases the friction between the filter and the water flow and impurities. As the friction increases, the filter not only becomes difficult to rise steadily but may even get stuck, seriously affecting the normal operation and filtration efficiency of the device. Moreover, the device lacks a dedicated nitrogen injection structure, which makes it impossible to evenly distribute nitrogen throughout the water body during nitrogen deoxygenation treatment. Even nitrogen distribution is crucial for effectively reducing the oxygen content in ballast water and inhibiting the activity of aerobic organisms. If the nitrogen is not distributed evenly, some areas will not be effectively nitrogened, failing to achieve comprehensive inactivation of organisms in the ballast water, thus affecting the protection of the marine ecological environment. Summary of the Invention
[0006] In view of the problems mentioned in the background art, the purpose of this invention is to provide an efficient nitrogen filling and deoxygenation treatment device and method for ship ballast water, so as to solve the problem of lack of efficient and uniform nitrogen filling treatment function during the application of the prior art.
[0007] The above-mentioned technical objective of the present invention is achieved through the following technical solution:

The stirring component is fixedly installed in the middle of the bottom of the cross tube. The bottom of the stirring component is connected to the filter mechanism.
[0013] Furthermore, the nitrogen filling assembly includes side pipes, which are arranged in a ring at equal intervals and fixedly installed at the bottom of the ring pipe. Pipe racks are fixedly installed at equal intervals on the inner side of the ring pipe. The pipe racks are T-shaped when viewed from above, and aeration nozzles are fixedly connected at equal intervals on the inner side of the pipe racks.
[0014] Furthermore, scrapers are fixedly installed at equal intervals in a ring at the bottom of the annular tube. The outer side of the scraper is in close contact with the inner wall of the tank.

[0016] Furthermore, the filtration mechanism includes a filter box, which is fixedly installed at the bottom output end of the tank. A filter screen is slidably connected inside the filter box, and a sealing cover is fixedly installed on the outside of the filter screen. The sealing cover is connected to the filter box by a hand-tightening bolt.

[0018] An efficient method for nitrogen-filled deoxygenation treatment of ship ballast water includes the following steps:
[0019] Step 1: Connect the nitrogen pipeline through the bent pipe, connect the ballast water pipeline through the external pipe, add ballast water through the external pipe, and add the ballast water into the tank.
[0020] Step 2: Nitrogen gas is filled into the tank through a bent pipe, and nitrogen gas is discharged into the tank using a pipe rack with equally spaced pipes and aeration nozzles on the inside.
[0021] Step 3: Start the drive motor. The drive motor drives the drive gear to rotate, which in turn drives the driven gear meshing with it to rotate. The driven gear drives the connecting pipe to rotate, which in turn drives the bottom cross tube to rotate.

[0024] Step Six: After the ballast water treatment is completed, open the drain valve to allow the ballast water to be discharged through the drain valve and drain pipe at the bottom of the filter box. Drive the motor to drive the gear transmission, so that the rotating shaft drives the retaining box, retaining block, and connecting block, and drives the cleaning brush to brush the outer surface of the filter screen to avoid clogging. When cleaning is required, loosen the hand-tightening screw to remove the filter screen for cleaning. After cleaning, insert and tighten the screw to fix it. When installing, adjust the retaining box inlet so that the retaining block is inserted into the retaining box to complete the installation.
[0025] In summary, the present invention has the following main beneficial effects:
[0026] First, when the device is running, the drive motor is started, and the motor drives the drive gear to rotate. The drive gear meshes with the driven gear to rotate synchronously. This transmission drives the connecting pipe, cross pipe, ring pipe, side pipe and pipe rack to rotate in sequence, connecting the bent pipe to the nitrogen pipeline. Nitrogen gas is evenly filled into the tank through the pipe rack with aeration nozzles arranged at equal intervals. A large number of tiny bubbles quickly fill all parts of the tank, allowing the nitrogen gas to evenly remove oxygen from the ballast water. At the same time, the exhaust pipe is used to discharge the floating gas, and the external pipe is convenient for adding ballast water, which provides convenience for the operation of the device.
[0027] Secondly, when the drive motor rotates the annular tube, the annular tube drives the bottom scraper to scrape and clean the inner wall of the tank, preventing dust and impurities from adhering. At the same time, the rotating shaft drives the dispersing screen to rotate, which can promote the uniform mixing of disinfectant with ballast water when adding disinfectant, achieving efficient disinfection. In addition, the dispersing screen will also break up the bubbles sprayed from the aeration nozzles, further promoting the reaction and replacement of nitrogen with water, comprehensively improving the water treatment effect, and highlighting the advantages of the synergistic cooperation between the drive and nitrogen filling mechanisms.
[0028] Third, after the ballast water treatment is completed, open the drain valve, drive the motor to drive the active and driven gear transmission, so that the rotating shaft drives the locking case, locking block, and connecting block, and finally drives the cleaning brush plate to continuously brush the surface of the filter screen. The filter screen plate filters out sediment, and the cleaning brush plate prevents clogging, ensuring that the device has a good anti-clogging function. After the treatment is completed, loosen the hand-tightening screw to remove the filter screen for cleaning. After cleaning, insert it again and tighten the screw to fix it. When installing, adjust the position of the locking case to facilitate the insertion of the locking block, which facilitates quick installation and removal of the filter screen and improves the convenience of cleaning and maintenance of the device.

[0044] An efficient method for nitrogen-filled deoxygenation treatment of ship ballast water includes the following steps:
[0045] Step 1: Connect the nitrogen pipeline through the bent pipe 57 and the ballast water pipeline through the external pipe 11. Add ballast water through the external pipe 11 and add the ballast water into the inside of the tank 4.
[0046] Step 2: Nitrogen gas is filled into the tank 4 through the bent pipe 57, and nitrogen gas is discharged into the tank 4 by using the pipe rack 612 with equally spaced pipes and aeration nozzles 613 on the inside.
[0047] Step 3: Start the drive motor 563. The drive motor 563 drives the drive gear 564 to rotate. The drive gear 564 drives the driven gear 562 that meshes with it to rotate. The driven gear 562 drives the connecting pipe 52 to rotate. The connecting pipe 52 drives the bottom cross pipe 53 to rotate. The cross pipe 53 drives the outer annular pipe 58 to rotate. The annular pipe 58 drives the side pipe 611 to rotate. The side pipe 611 drives the pipe frame 612 to rotate. During the process, the floating gas is discharged through the exhaust pipe 12.
[0048] Step 4: Drive motor 563 drives annular tube 58 to rotate, annular tube 58 drives bottom scraper 59 to rotate, scraper 59 on the outside to scrape and clean the inner wall of tank 4.
[0049] Step 5: During the driving process, the rotating shaft 621 drives the dispersing mesh plate 623 to rotate, agitating the water. Then, disinfectant is added into the tank 4 to make the disinfectant and ballast water mix evenly.
[0050] Step Six: After the ballast water treatment is completed, open the drain valve 75 to allow the ballast water to be discharged through the drain valve 75 and drain pipe 76 at the bottom of the filter box 71. Drive the drive motor 563 to drive the gear transmission, so that the rotating shaft 621 drives the retaining shell 741, retaining block 744, and connecting block 742, which drives the cleaning brush plate 743 to brush the outer surface of the filter screen 72 to avoid clogging.

When installing, adjust the inlet of the retaining shell 741 so that the retaining block 744 can be inserted into the retaining shell 741 to complete the installation.
[0051] Operating principle and advantages: During the use of this device, the drive motor 563 is started, which drives the drive gear 564 to rotate. The drive gear 564 and the driven gear 562 are meshed, so the rotation of the drive gear 564 will drive the driven gear 562 to rotate. After the driven gear 562 rotates, it will synchronously drive the connecting pipe 52 to rotate. The rotation of the connecting pipe 52 will drive the cross tube 53 at its bottom to rotate. The rotation of the cross tube 53 will drive the annular tube 58 on its outer side to rotate. The rotation of the annular tube 58 will drive the side tube 611 to rotate. The rotation of the side tube 611 will then drive the tube frame 612 to rotate. Connect the bent pipe 57 on the outside of the rotary joint 54 to the nitrogen pipeline. Nitrogen can be filled into the tank 4 through the bent pipe 57. The pipe racks 612 are arranged at equal intervals, and the inner side of the pipe racks 612 is equipped with aeration nozzles 613. In this way, nitrogen can be evenly discharged into the tank 4 through the aeration nozzles 613 on each pipe rack 612 inside the side pipe 611, forming bubbles and quickly filling all positions inside the tank 4, so that nitrogen can remove oxygen from the ballast water more evenly. During the treatment process, the floating gas is discharged through the exhaust pipe 12. The outer pipe 11 can be used to add ballast water, which facilitates the operation and use of this device.
[0052] The drive mechanism 5 and the nitrogen filling mechanism 6 of this device work together. When the drive motor 563 drives the annular tube 58 to rotate, the annular tube 58 will drive the scrapers 59 at its bottom to rotate. The outer side of the scraper 59 is in contact with the inner wall of the tank 4. When the scraper 59 rotates, it will scrape the inner wall of the tank 4 to prevent dust and impurities from adhering to the inner wall of the tank 4. During this driving process, the rotating shaft 621 will drive the dispersing screen 623 to rotate. The rotation of the dispersing screen 623 will agitate the water. When disinfectant needs to be added, the rotation of the dispersing screen 623 can make the disinfectant and ballast water evenly mixed, thereby disinfecting the ballast water efficiently. Moreover, the rotation of the dispersing screen 623 will also agitate the bubbles sprayed from the aeration nozzle 613 and break them up. This agitation can promote the reaction and replacement of nitrogen and water, and improve the water treatment effect.
[0053] During the use of this device, after the ballast water treatment is completed, the drain valve 75 is opened, and the ballast water will be discharged through the drain valve 75 and drain pipe 76 at the bottom of the filter box 71. During the discharge of the ballast water, the drive motor 563 drives the active gear 564 and the driven gear 562 to mesh and transmit power, which in turn drives the rotating shaft 621 at the bottom of the cross tube 53 to rotate. The rotation of the rotating shaft 621 will drive the retainer 741 at its bottom to rotate. The rotation of the retainer 741 will drive the retaining block 744 to drive the connecting block 742 to rotate. The rotation of the connecting block 742 will drive the cleaning brush plate 743 to rotate. The cleaning brush plate 743 will continuously brush the outer surface of the filter screen 72. During the filtration process, the filter screen 72 will clean the sediment on the outer surface of the filter screen 72. The filtration process, along with the agitation and brushing of the cleaning brush plate 743, prevents sediment from clogging the filter screen 72, providing the device with good anti-clogging capabilities. After the ballast water treatment is complete, loosening the hand-tightening screw allows the filter screen 72 inside the filter box 71 to be removed for cleaning. After cleaning, the filter screen 72 is inserted back into the filter box 71, and the hand-tightening screw is then turned to connect it to the filter box 71. During installation, the inlet of the retaining box 741 is adjusted to the front. After the filter screen 72 is installed, the retaining block 744 will insert into the retaining box 741, facilitating quick and easy installation and removal of the filter screen 72 as needed. This facilitates cleaning and maintenance of the device and improves its usability.
