Description

Technical Field

[0001] The present invention relates to the field of water treatment, and specifically relates to a shore-based jet aeration and flotation coupled with an ecological ditch for algae removal and water purification process. Background Art

[0002] The increasingly serious pollution of water bodies, the excessive input of nutrients such as nitrogen and phosphorus, climate change, the physical properties of water bodies (pH value, dissolved oxygen, light penetration depth, etc.), fluidity, benthic sediments, the health status of the ecosystem, etc. are all the reasons for the growth of algae in surface water bodies and even the outbreak of algal blooms. The problem that algal blooms are easy to generate but difficult to eliminate has long been one of the most challenging environmental problems in the management of lakes and rivers worldwide.

[0003] In the treatment of algal blooms, many methods or strategies have been developed, including reducing nutrient input, biological manipulation (such as introducing filter-feeding fish), physical methods (water replacement, water regulation and control, filtration, etc. technologies), chemical methods (adding oxidizing agents, such as copper sulfate, chlorine preparations, quaternary ammonium salts, etc.), and advanced technical means (such as remote sensing monitoring and early warning systems for algal bloom outbreaks). Although these methods have achieved certain results to a certain extent, there are still many problems. For example, reducing nutrient input often takes a long time to show results. Especially for large and medium-sized water bodies, it is unrealistic to reduce nutrient salts; physical and chemical intervention methods will bring great side effects, such as the poisoning of aquatic organisms and the water ecosystem. Therefore, how to effectively control the occurrence of algal blooms and eliminate algal bloom phenomena is still an important challenge, and an effective treatment measure still needs to be explored.

[0004] Jet aeration and flotation uses water to carry air and mix air into the water body for flotation. The jet device uses a Venturi nozzle, and countless fine bubbles are formed after spraying. The bubble diameter is small and the residence time in the water body is relatively long. The present invention utilizes the dual advantages of the stirring and oxygenation ability of jet aeration and flotation and the flotation solid-liquid separation effect, and adopts the shore-based jet aeration and flotation algae removal technology to promote the full contact between algae and other substances in the water body and bubbles, effectively reducing the algal base number in water bodies such as lakes or rivers, and controlling the occurrence of algal blooms and eliminating algal bloom phenomena.

[0005] At the same time, the present invention adopts the method of combining jet aeration and flotation with an ecological ditch. While removing algae in the water body, reducing the concentration of water body nutrients, and improving the water quality of the water body, it can also increase the water body dynamics, improve the ecological landscape, and maintain a long-term clear and clean state with clear water and green shores. Summary of the Invention

[0006] In view of the problem of algal bloom treatment, the present invention provides a shore-based jet aeration and flotation coupled with an ecological ditch for algae removal and water purification process.

[0007] The specific technical solution of the present invention is as follows: An onshore jet aeration and air flotation coupled ecological ditch algae removal and water purification process, including a jet aeration and air flotation process and an ecological ditch process. The devices used in the jet aeration and air flotation process include a submersible pump system, a coagulation air flotation system, and an algae collection system; the devices used in the ecological ditch process include a sluice gate, a double-blind pipe, a graded matrix, aquatic plants, and an outlet pipe.

The main purpose is to collect the algal blooms floating on the water surface of the water body, reduce the inflow of algal turbid water below the water surface of the algal blooms, and thus increase the concentration of algae entering the pump pit and improve the algae removal efficiency of the jet aeration and air flotation process; the arc side plates have a certain slope, and the slope gradually increases downward along the pump pit opening, and the maximum slope is 45°; the material of the arc side plates is preferably stainless steel, and the height of the arc side plates is 1 / 4 - 1 / 3 of the height of the pump pit; the submersible pump is a submersible sewage pump, and the high-concentration algal bloom water body flowing into the pump pit enters the subsequent system from the submersible pump; the floating device is connected to the pump pit to make the pump pit float in the water body, so that the pump pit can collect the algal blooms on the water surface at different water levels.

[0009] The coagulation air flotation system includes a jet aerator, a coagulation air flotation tank, and a chemical dosing device. The coagulation air flotation tank is arranged on the shore of the water body, and the jet aerator is installed around the coagulation air flotation tank. The jet aerators arranged around spray the algal bloom water body dissolved with a large number of microbubbles into the coagulation air flotation tank, realizing the effective contact between the algal bloom particles and the bubbles, and the stirring is sufficient, avoiding the formation of dead zones in the coagulation air flotation tank and effectively improving the coagulation air flotation efficiency. The coagulation air flotation system is arranged on the shore, which is convenient for installation, inspection, and maintenance.

[0010] The chemical dosing device contains a coagulant, mainly to better agglomerate the algal bloom particles in the coagulation air flotation tank and then remove them by air flotation; the coagulant is a conventional inorganic or organic coagulation agent, preferably one or several of polyaluminum chloride, polyaluminum sulfate, polyferric sulfate, and polyacrylamide. Among them, the concentration of the inorganic coagulant in the coagulation air flotation tank is 30 - 60 mg / L, and the concentration of the organic coagulant is 0.5 - 2 mg / L.

The algae collection system includes an algae transport pipeline and an algae well, and the algae transport pipeline transports the algal bloom particles to the supporting algae well.

[0012] After the water body with algal blooms is treated by the coagulation air flotation system, the water body after coagulation air flotation treatment flows to the subsequent ecological ditch through the overflow weir and the water pipeline. A small amount of algal bloom particles contained in the transported water body are further intercepted by the sluice gate at the front end of the ecological ditch and collected into the adjacent algal well. The depth and size of the algal well can be determined according to the amount of algal blooms in the water body, and the algal bloom particles collected in the algal well can be recycled and treated.

[0014] A plurality of water outlet pipes are arranged on the double-blind pipe, facilitating the treated water in the ecological ditch to be discharged back to the original water body nearby, increasing the water body dynamics and realizing the effective treatment of the original water body.

[0015] The beneficial effects of the present invention are as follows: The process described in the present invention combines the common advantages of jet aeration air flotation and ecological ditch to eliminate algal blooms and purify the water body. This process can realize the high-density collection and air flotation removal of algae in the water body by using the jet aeration air flotation process, effectively reducing the algal base number in water bodies such as lakes or rivers, inhibiting the occurrence of algal blooms or eliminating algal bloom phenomena, and restoring the clarity of the water body; in addition, this process couples with the ecological ditch to further remove suspended solids, nitrogen, phosphorus and other pollutants in the water body after jet aeration air flotation treatment, inhibits water eutrophication and increases water body dynamics, and restores and maintains the clarity of the water body.
