[0002] As our requirements for water pollution control become increasingly strict, especially with the significant increase in the number of tourists traveling currently, the passenger capacity of highways has also increased greatly, and the amount of sewage and wastewater generated in highway service areas is also increasing. Therefore, the recycling and treatment of sewage and wastewater in highway service areas become even more important. Collecting and reusing rainwater in highway service areas is also a strong response to the recycling of water resources and the prevention and control of water pollution, which helps to promote the green and low-carbon development process of the region. The present invention can effectively utilize the sewage and collected rainwater generated in highway service areas and can well solve the problems of water resource pollution and waste. Summary of the Invention

[0003] The core technical problem to be solved by the present invention is to provide a high-efficiency sewage treatment and rainwater collection and utilization system for highway service areas. This system can not only effectively achieve the high-efficiency resource utilization of sewage, but also effectively collect and utilize rainwater, providing strong support for protecting the balance and health of the surrounding ecological system. By integrating advanced sewage purification and reuse technologies, the system ensures that the treated sewage and rainwater can meet high-standard water quality requirements and are applicable to a variety of non-drinking water application scenarios. In addition, the implementation of this system also promotes the recycling of resources and conforms to the environmental protection concept of green and low-carbon.

[0006] Preferably, in the above-mentioned sewage treatment and rainwater collection and purification system for highway service areas, the grit chamber is a horizontal flow grit chamber, and the slope of the bottom of the tank is not less than 0.05.

[0007] Preferably, for a sewage treatment and rainwater collection and purification system in a highway service area, the CASS tank is built with concrete and steel bars, with dimensions of 20m×9.9m, and the area ratio of the pre-reaction zone to the main reaction zone is 1:9.

Detailed implementation mode

[0031] Example 1

[0032] As Figure 1 shown, a sewage treatment and rainwater collection and purification system for highway service areas includes a sewage treatment system and a rainwater collection and purification system.

[0033] The sewage treatment system includes a grille 1, a grit chamber 2, a CASS tank 3, a sewage contact disinfection tank 4, and a clear water tank 5 connected in sequence; the CASS tank 3 is also connected to the sludge thickening tank 6, and there is an upper clear liquid return pipeline from the sludge thickening tank 6 to the CASS tank 3. The sludge in the sludge thickening tank 6 is transported out of the sludge through the spiral sludge dewatering machine 7.

[0034] The grit chamber 2 is a horizontal flow grit chamber, and the slope of the bottom of the tank is not less than 0.05, which serves to remove suspended solids, microorganisms, and fine particles.

[0035] As Figure 2 shown, the CASS tank 3 is built of reinforced concrete, with dimensions of 20m × 9.9m, and the area ratio of the pre-reaction zone to the main reaction zone is 1:9 to reduce civil engineering construction.

[0036] A chemical dosing system 13 is arranged in the sewage contact disinfection tank 4, and the disinfectant in the chemical dosing system 13 is liquid chlorine. Equipment operating for 2 hours per day is selected to save energy.

[0037] Flow measurement equipment 14 is provided between the sewage contact disinfection tank 4 and the clear water tank 5 to accurately measure the sewage discharge.

[0038] The rainwater collection and purification system includes a rainwater collection pipe network and a purification system.

[0039] The purification system includes a flow-through filtration device 8, a rainwater storage tank 9, a rainwater sedimentation tank 10, a rainwater filtration tank 11, a rainwater contact disinfection tank 12, and a clear water tank 5 connected in sequence.

[0040] When the flow-through filtration device 8 exceeds the set interception water volume, the remaining water volume enters the rainwater collection pipe network.

[0041] A rainwater lift pump 15 is arranged in the rainwater storage tank 9 to lift the rainwater to the rainwater sedimentation tank 10.

[0042] In this embodiment, the outlet of the clean water tank 5 can be connected to a drain pipe so that the qualified water can be directly discharged; or, the outlet of the clean water tank 5 can be connected to a water unit of a highway service area through a return pipe so that the water treated by the sewage treatment system can be returned to the water unit, thereby realizing the recycling of sewage. The qualified water can be discharged into the drain pipe or the water unit through a pump.

[0043] The treatment method based on the above-mentioned highway service area sewage treatment and rainwater collection and purification system includes the following steps:

[0044] 1) After the sewage from the highway service area is combined and passes through the submersible sewage pump, it first flows to the screen 1, where larger suspended particles can be filtered and removed. The filtered sewage flows into the sand settling tank 2 by gravity due to the height difference between the structures. Two mechanical screens are installed, with a screen width of 500mm and a screen gap of 3mm. Two submersible sewage pumps are installed, with a head of 9m and a flow rate of 10m 3 / h;

[0045] 2) Then it enters the CASS pool 3, and the supernatant of the sludge concentration pool 6 is also returned to the CASS pool 3 through the supernatant return pipeline, and the pollutants are treated by the action of activated sludge. A regulating valve is set at the water inlet end of the CASS pool 3 to adjust the flow rate at any time according to the actual situation;

[0046] 3) After the CASS process, the pollutants in the sewage are effectively removed, but the sewage still needs to pass through the sewage contact disinfection tank 4 to achieve the disinfection effect; the disinfected water enters the clean water tank 5, and a flow metering device 14 is provided between the sewage contact disinfection tank 4 and the clean water tank 5, which can accurately measure the discharge amount of sewage;

[0047] 4) The sludge in the CASS tank 3 flows into the sludge thickening tank 6, and is dehydrated by the screw stacking sludge dewatering machine 7 to form a sludge cake, which is then transported out.

[0048] 5) Rainwater flows through roofs, roads, squares, etc. and flows into the rainwater collection network. The early rainfall is discharged into the rainwater collection network. The thickness of the initial discarded flow of roof rainwater is 1-2mm. The early rainwater discarding device adopts an automatic discarding flow filtering device 8. The rainwater collected after the discarded flow flows into the rainwater storage tank 9;

[0049] 6) The rainwater storage tank 9 is a concrete storage tank with a single size of 1000mm×500mm×400mm. A rainwater lifting pump 15 is provided in the concrete storage tank to lift rainwater to the rainwater sedimentation tank 10. No power is required. The potential energy formed by the drop in the pool allows the rainwater to pass through the rainwater sedimentation tank 10, the rainwater filtration tank 11, and the rainwater contact disinfection tank 12 in sequence;

[0050] 7) The treated water flows by gravity into the clean water tank 5; the clean water is pressurized by the clean water pump in the clean water tank 5 and supplied to the reuse water network for reuse.
