Description

Technical Field

[0001] The present invention belongs to the technical field of oily sludge treatment, and more specifically, relates to an oily sludge reduction treatment device and method. Background Art

[0002] Oily sludge is mainly produced in the process of oil extraction, transportation, refining, chemical industry and sewage treatment. According to the way oily sludge is produced, it can be divided into ground oily sludge, tank bottom oily sludge and refinery "three muds", which is an important source of pollution in the petrochemical industry. Oily sludge mainly contains water, petroleum, inorganic salts, solid impurities, etc., and often presents a stable emulsion form. At present, the oily sludge of refineries is mainly treated by outsourcing hazardous waste or high-temperature incineration, which leads to high cost of oily sludge treatment and waste of a large amount of petroleum resources in the oily sludge.

[0003] According to the requirements of solid waste reduction, harmlessness and resource utilization, it is an important measure to improve the economy and environmental protection of refineries to use eco-friendly and economical technologies to treat oily sludge and recover valuable oil resources. Among the oily sludge treatment technologies, biological treatment technology uses the life activities of microorganisms to produce biosurfactants, which can demulsify oily sludge and absorb petroleum substances for degradation, thus converting the oil products that are difficult to recover in oily sludge into harmless CO. 2 and H 2 O, it is environmentally friendly and has no secondary pollution.

[0004] However, at present, the biological treatment device for oily sludge has a long residence time for the oily sludge, resulting in a slow stirring speed of the agitator, poor stirring and uniform distribution of the oily sludge itself, and poor demulsification effect of the oily sludge, making it difficult to recover the oil in the biological treatment device. For the emulsification system of oily sludge, the current biological treatment device for oily sludge often sets a pretreatment unit or adds chemical demulsifiers, which increases the cost of oily sludge treatment and has secondary pollution problems. In addition, the oil resources are not recovered, which also reduces the economic efficiency of the oily sludge treatment device, increases the processing load of microorganisms, and leads to a decrease in the treatment efficiency of the biological treatment device for oily sludge and a longer treatment cycle.

[0005] CN114956496A discloses a bioremediation treatment device for oily sludge. It consists of a fermentation tank, a cover plate, a mobile frame, a mixing barrel, a spreading pipe, etc., and can perform pretreatment and biofermentation treatment on oily sludge. However, the device lacks the function of oil resource recovery, and the emulsification system of oily sludge lacks the corresponding links of destabilization and demulsification, which will affect the biofermentation effect and efficiency.

[0006] CN112250267B discloses a method and device for harmless treatment of oily sludge. It is composed of a microbial sedimentation tank, a sedimentation tank, a chemical oxidation tank, a mechanical dehydrator, a heat treatment furnace, etc. The oily sludge is demulsified and pretreated in the microbial sedimentation tank, and then solid-liquid separation is performed in the sedimentation tank to recover part of the oil resources, and then harmless treatment is performed in the chemical oxidation tank and the heat treatment furnace. Although oil recovery and treatment of oily sludge are achieved, the oil separation and recovery process is complicated and costly, and the subsequent harmless treatment of oily sludge by the chemical oxidation tank and the heat treatment furnace has a high corresponding treatment cost. Summary of the invention

[0007] The purpose of the present invention is to provide an oily sludge reduction treatment device and method to address the deficiencies in the prior art, thereby solving the problems of poor demulsification effect of oily sludge, difficulty in recovering oil resources and low overall treatment efficiency during the oily sludge reduction treatment process in the prior art.

[0008] In order to achieve the above object, the present invention provides an oily sludge reduction treatment device, which comprises:

[0009] A first shell, wherein a demulsification chamber is disposed inside the first shell, a first feed port and a first discharge port connected to the demulsification chamber are disposed at two ends of the first shell respectively, a capillary channel connected to the demulsification chamber is disposed on the side wall of the demulsification chamber, and a first heating component is disposed inside the side wall of the demulsification chamber, a first stirring and conveying mechanism is disposed in the demulsification chamber for stirring and conveying the material in the demulsification chamber, and a first ultrasonic generator is disposed in the demulsification chamber;

[0010] A second shell, wherein a fermentation chamber is disposed inside the second shell, a second feed port and a second discharge port communicating with the fermentation chamber are disposed at two ends of the second shell, a second heating component is disposed inside the side wall of the fermentation chamber, a second stirring and conveying mechanism is disposed inside the fermentation chamber for stirring and conveying the material in the fermentation chamber, and a second ultrasonic generator is disposed inside the fermentation chamber;

[0013] The oily sludge and the optional demulsifier can enter the demulsification chamber through the first feed port. At the same time, as the device is running, part of the fermentation product refluxed in the reflux pipeline also enters the demulsification chamber through the first feed port. Under the action of the first heating component and the first stirring and conveying mechanism, the material is heated, turned and conveyed. Under the action of the first ultrasonic generator, the material vibrates, which promotes the demulsification effect and demulsification efficiency of the oily sludge and strengthens the absorption capacity of the capillary channels for liquid. The solid product output from the demulsification chamber enters the fermentation chamber through the second feed port. At the same time, a liquid having the function of fermenting the oily sludge can also be added through the second feed port. The biological bacterial liquid is heated, turned over and conveyed by the second heating component and the second stirring and conveying mechanism. The material vibrates under the action of the second ultrasonic generator, which enhances the contact between the oily sludge and microorganisms, promotes the reproduction of microorganisms, and strengthens the contact efficiency between microorganisms and oxygen and oil products, thereby improving the effect and efficiency of microbial degradation of oily sludge. A part of the fermentation product in the fermentation chamber flows back through the reflux pipeline to form circulating material, and the other part is discharged through the discharge port, which can be used to process by-products.

[0015] The first buffer structure and the second buffer structure can be elastic buffer components. When the first ultrasonic generator and the second ultrasonic generator are in operation, the first inner shell and the second inner shell generate vibrations. The first buffer structure and the second buffer structure are used to reduce the transmission of such vibrations to the first outer shell and the second outer shell, thereby reducing the vibrations of the first outer shell and the second outer shell, thereby reducing noise and improving the service life of the device.

The ultrasonic vibration is buffered by the first buffer structure and the second buffer structure, thereby reducing noise and the vibration of the entire device and improving the life of the device. In addition, the first buffer structure and the second buffer structure have the functions of mitigating impact and recovering energy. When heat transfer oil is filled between the first outer shell and the first inner shell and heat transfer oil is filled between the second outer shell and the second inner shell, part of the vibration energy is converted into heat energy and transmitted to the heat transfer oil, thereby further reducing the output power of the first heating component and the second heating component.

[0029] Optionally, the pore size of the capillary channel is 0.01-3 microns.

[0161] Examples 2D1-2D5

[0162] The device and method with the same structure as that of Example 2A are used, but the output power of the first heating component 6 of the demulsification chamber 2 and the second heating component 13 of the fermentation chamber 10 are kept unchanged during operation, and whether ultrasound is used for the demulsification chamber 2 and the fermentation chamber 10 is changed. The temperatures of the demulsification chamber 2 and the fermentation chamber 10 corresponding to the use of the first ultrasonic generator 8 and the second ultrasonic generator 15 are shown in Table 1 below:

[0163] Table 1

[0164]

[0165]

[0166] By comparison, it was found that when the output power of the first heating component 6 of the demulsification chamber 2 and the second heating component 13 of the fermentation chamber 10 was kept unchanged, the high-frequency ultrasound and low-frequency ultrasound of the first ultrasonic generator 8 and the second ultrasonic generator 15 respectively increased the temperature of the material in the demulsification chamber 2 and the fermentation chamber 10, and the frequency change of the first ultrasonic generator 8 and the second ultrasonic generator 15 had little effect on the material temperature. Therefore, the first ultrasonic generator 8 and the second ultrasonic generator 15 used in this embodiment can effectively increase the material temperature, and the output power of the first heating component 6 and the second heating component 13 can be appropriately reduced.

[0167] Examples 2E1-2E5

[0168] The same device and method as in Example 2A are used, but whether ultrasound is used for the demulsification chamber 2 and the fermentation chamber 10 is changed during operation. The corresponding oil and water resource recovery amounts of the first ultrasonic generator 8 and the second ultrasonic generator 15 are shown in Table 2 below:

[0169] Table 2

[0170]

[0171] By comparison, it is found that the high-frequency ultrasound and low-frequency ultrasound of the first ultrasonic generator 8 and the second ultrasonic generator 15 can improve the recovery amount and recovery purity of water and oil in the demulsification chamber 2, especially the promotion effect of high-frequency ultrasound is obvious. This result confirms the promotion effect of high-frequency ultrasound on the demulsification of oil-containing sludge in the demulsification chamber 2, the crushing of bacteria in the bacterial liquid of biosurfactant production, the heat generation by cavitation, and the recovery of hollow capillary fiber bundles. Low-frequency ultrasound also shows a certain effect on the recovery amount and recovery purity of oil and water.

[0172] The low-frequency ultrasound promotes the reproduction of microorganisms in the fermentation chamber 10, and then the fermentation product enters the demulsification chamber 2 through the reflux to enhance the demulsification of oily sludge and the recovery of oil and water.

[0173] Examples 2F1-2F4

[0174] The same device and method as in Example 2A were used, but whether to add the biosurfactant producing bacterial solution to the feed of the fermentation chamber 10 was regulated. The corresponding oil-water recovery amount and oil-containing sludge reduction rate depending on whether the biosurfactant producing bacterial solution was added and the addition flow rate were different are shown in Table 3 below:

[0175] Table 3

[0176]

[0177] By comparison, it was found that adding biosurfactant to produce bacterial liquid can significantly improve the reduction rate of oily sludge and the amount of oil and water recovered, indicating that this embodiment uses petroleum in oily sludge to co-cultivate biosurfactant to produce bacterial liquid and then circulates the material to the demulsification chamber 2 under high-frequency ultrasonic action for crushing and releasing the intracellular enriched biosurfactant, which has a significant promoting effect on the reduction treatment of oily sludge in the demulsification chamber 2 and destabilization and demulsification.

[0178] Examples 2G1-2G7

[0179] The same device and method as in Example 2A are used, but the second ultrasonic generator 15 is regulated during operation. The changes in the oil content in the material produced by the fermentation chamber 10 at different output frequencies of the second ultrasonic generator 15 are shown in Table 4 below:

[0180] Table 4

[0181]

[0182] By comparison, it was found that the use of low-frequency ultrasound in the fermentation chamber 10 can significantly improve the treatment effect of oily sludge, which proves that low-frequency ultrasound can improve the uniform distribution and stirring of oily sludge, improve the reproduction of microorganisms, and promote the contact between microorganisms and oil products in oily sludge and oxygen in the air; selecting low-frequency ultrasound of appropriate frequency can further promote the reproduction and treatment effect of microorganisms, but the use of high-frequency ultrasound will cause the microorganisms to be broken and killed, significantly reducing the harmless treatment effect of oily sludge in the fermentation chamber 10. Therefore, the use of low-frequency ultrasound (when the output frequency is 20-40KHz) can enhance the harmless treatment effect of the fermentation chamber 10 on oily sludge and improve the treatment performance of the device on oily sludge.

[0183] Examples 2H1-2H11

[0184] The device and method with the same structure as in Example 2A are used, but the number of vibration structures in the demulsification chamber 2 and the fermentation chamber 10 is adjusted during operation. The oily sludge treatment effects corresponding to different numbers of vibration structures are shown in Table 5 below:

[0185] Table 5

[0186]

[0188] By comparison, it is found that the treatment effect of the device on oily sludge is significantly improved by setting a vibration structure. By adding a vibration structure in the demulsification chamber 2 and the fermentation chamber 10, a longitudinal shear force can be provided for the oily sludge, the relative movement efficiency inside the oily sludge can be improved, the contact and mixing of biological surfactants and chemical surfactants with the oily sludge in the demulsification chamber 2 can be accelerated, the demulsification process of the oily sludge can be accelerated, and the contact between microorganisms and oxygen and oil resources can be improved in the fermentation chamber 10, and the efficiency of microbial fermentation and degradation of petroleum hydrocarbons can be improved; by adding a vibration structure, the vibration effect of ultrasound on oily sludge is significantly improved, thereby improving the reduction rate of oily sludge. When the number of vibration structures in the demulsification chamber 2 is greater than or equal to 10, and the number of vibration structures in the fermentation chamber 10 is greater than or equal to 50, the device has a better treatment effect on oily sludge, and the reduction rate of oily sludge is maintained above 85%.

[0190] The same device and method as in Example 2A were used, but during operation, whether the first ultrasonic generator 8 was set in the demulsification chamber 2 and the amount of chemical surfactant added were regulated. The internal characterization results of the oily sludge corresponding to the setting of the first ultrasonic generator 8 and the amount of chemical surfactant added were shown in Table 6 below:

[0192]

[0193] The oily sludge material at the first discharge port 4 of the demulsification chamber 2 was taken, and a certain amount of leachate was taken to test the interfacial tension of the oily sludge leachate system through a TX-500C rotating drop interfacial tension meter (Germany, KURSS). The smaller the interfacial tension, the better the demulsification treatment effect of the demulsifier and the biological surfactant on the oily sludge. By comparing the high-frequency ultrasonic working frequency and the amount of demulsifier added, it can be found that the high-frequency ultrasound significantly improves the crushing of microorganisms in the demulsification chamber 2, increases the concentration of the biological surfactant, and significantly reduces the interfacial tension of the oily sludge system, promotes the demulsification of the oily sludge, thereby improving the reduction rate of the oily sludge. In addition, the addition of the chemical demulsifier and the biological surfactant plays a synergistic role in promoting the decrease of the interfacial tension and improving the demulsification effect of the oily sludge.

[0195] The same device and method as in Example 2A were used, but during operation, whether the second ultrasonic generator 15 was used in the fermentation chamber 10 and the amount of the added bacterial solution produced by the biosurfactant were regulated. The results of the microbial concentration inside the oily sludge in the fermentation chamber 10 corresponding to different operating parameters are shown in Table 7 below:

[0198] Take the oily sludge at the second outlet 12 of the fermentation chamber 10, dilute the leaching solution by 5 times, and measure the optical density (OD) under 600nm wavelength light. 600 ), OD 600 The larger the value, the higher the density of microorganisms. The degradation rate of petroleum hydrocarbons in the fermentation chamber 10 is calculated by respectively measuring the concentration of petroleum hydrocarbons in the oily sludge at the second feed port 11 and the second discharge port 12 of the fermentation chamber 10. The larger the value, the more efficient the harmless treatment effect of the microorganisms in the fermentation chamber 10 on the oily sludge. The results show that the presence of low-frequency ultrasound in the fermentation chamber 10 can significantly enhance the reproduction of microorganisms, increase the density of microorganisms in the fermentation chamber 10, and enhance the degradation rate of petroleum hydrocarbons in the oily sludge in the fermentation chamber 10, thereby improving the treatment effect of the oily sludge.

[0199] Adding biosurfactant to produce bacterial liquid can also significantly improve the treatment effect of oily sludge. Adding biosurfactant to produce bacterial liquid at the same time as low-frequency ultrasound can make the oily sludge reduction rate higher than 80%. Increasing the flow rate of biosurfactant to produce bacterial liquid can also further improve the treatment effect of oily sludge. When the flow rate of biosurfactant to produce bacterial liquid is greater than or equal to 300mL / d, the oily sludge reduction rate is as high as more than 85%. However, when the flow rate of biosurfactant to produce bacterial liquid is too high (600-800mL / d), the oily sludge reduction effect is not significantly improved. Considering the cost comprehensively, the flow rate of biosurfactant to produce bacterial liquid is preferably 300-600mL / d.

[0200] Compared with CN114956496A and CN114031255A, this embodiment recovers oil and water resources through self-absorption of the capillary pores 5, which is low in cost, and adopts the first ultrasonic generator 8 and the second ultrasonic generator 15 to emit high-frequency ultrasound and low-frequency ultrasound respectively. In the demulsification stage, the high-frequency ultrasound strengthens the dispersion of the oily sludge, and the cavitation generates tiny bubbles, forming local high temperature and high pressure to promote the destabilization and demulsification of the oily sludge. The high-frequency ultrasound breaks the biosurfactant in the refluxed fermentation product to produce the bacteria in the bacterial liquid, releases the biosurfactant enriched in the cell, and promotes the demulsification effect of the oily sludge. The high-frequency ultrasound also synergistically strengthens the separation and recovery effect of the capillary pores 5 on oil and water, and improves the reduction and resource efficiency of the oily sludge through the high-frequency ultrasound. The device has a harmless treatment effect. In the fermentation stage, low-frequency ultrasound promotes the reproduction of microorganisms, strengthens the contact efficiency between microorganisms and oily sludge and oxygen, strengthens the stirring and uniform distribution of oily sludge, and improves the harmless treatment effect of oily sludge through low-frequency ultrasound. The device is also equipped with a first buffer structure 27 and a second buffer structure 28, which can recycle the extra energy of ultrasonic vibration to save heating energy. The materials after harmless, reduced and resource-based treatment of oily sludge can be used to prepare fillers or ceramsite as by-products, which has a high economic advantage. The oil resources that cannot be recovered in the oily sludge are used as nutrients to cultivate the strains in the oily sludge degradation microorganisms and biosurfactant-producing bacterial liquid, which is low-cost and has no secondary pollution, and has a high environmental advantage.
