[0002] Nickel-containing wastewater mainly comes from the rinsing water in the nickel plating section of the electroplating production line. If it is discharged into the water body without effective treatment, it will cause serious impacts on the environment and human health. In addition, due to the high price of nickel and the continuous reduction of nickel resources, nickel-containing wastewater has high recycling value. If the nickel-containing electroplating wastewater can be recycled, it can not only reduce environmental pollution, but also reduce the production cost of enterprises, save water resources and promote the clean production level of the industry.

[0014] As a further preference of this solution, the sewage generated by the sludge dewatering machine flows back to the wastewater collection pool, and the generated sludge is entrusted to a professional agency for disposal as hazardous waste.

[0015] As a further preference of this solution, a liquid level control system is provided in the wastewater collection tank to control the start and stop of the collection tank lift pump. When the liquid level is high, the collection tank lift pump starts; when the liquid level is low, the collection tank lift pump stops. A liquid level control system is provided in the microfiltration and concentration water tank to control the start and stop of the microfiltration circulation pump. When the liquid level is high, the microfiltration circulation pump starts; when the liquid level is low, the microfiltration circulation pump stops. A liquid level control system is provided in the microfiltration product water tank to control the start and stop of the microfiltration product water tank booster pump and the separation high-pressure pump. When the liquid level is high, the microfiltration product water tank booster pump and the separation high-pressure pump start in sequence; when the liquid level is low, the separation high-pressure pump and the microfiltration product water tank booster pump stop in sequence. A liquid level control system is provided in the fresh water tank to control the start and stop of the separation high-pressure pump and the fresh water reuse pump.

[0016] The beneficial effects of the present invention are as follows: (1) A bottom valve is provided at the bottom of the inlet pipe of the collection tank lift pump, which can prevent the backflow of water in the water pump and reduce the inflow of sundries, reducing the risk of system blockage.

[0017] (2) The pretreatment system adopts a microfiltration membrane device and a carbon filter. The microfiltration membrane device mainly uses a microporous membrane to intercept and separate suspended solids with a particle size greater than or equal to its pore size (50 - 1000 nm). The diameter of nickel ions is 0.110 - 0.138 nm, which can pass through the microfiltration membrane device and enter the microfiltration product water tank; and the microfiltration membrane device can eliminate the sedimentation tank and multi-media filtration, without the need to add flocculants. Through the concentration effect of the tubular membrane, there are enough suspended solids in the concentration tank to promote coprecipitation. Generally, the overall sludge volume is less than that of the traditional process, with a higher concentration, and it can be directly sent to the sludge dewatering machine without further concentration. The carbon filter is mainly used to remove organic matter to avoid the fouling of the membrane by organic matter.

[0018] (3) The separation device adopts a reverse osmosis membrane for brackish water desalination, and the conductivity of the produced fresh water reaches below 200 us / cm, which can be reused in the water washing tank of the electroplating production line.

[0019] (4) The concentration device and the ultra-concentration device both use the nanofiltration membrane of the D series to concentrate the wastewater. It can not only intercept divalent nickel ions, but also reduce the pressure requirements for the high-pressure pump and pipeline compared with the seawater desalination membrane. The nickel concentration in the concentrated liquid is not less than 40 g / L and can be recycled to the electroplating mother tank of the production line.

[0020] (5) The fresh water reuse pump and the concentrated liquid reuse pump both use variable frequency constant pressure pumps. The reuse of fresh water and concentrated liquid only needs to open the corresponding ball valves for control, which can not only protect the reuse pump, but also has a high degree of automation of the system.

[0021] (6) In the wastewater collection tank, microfiltration concentration water tank, microfiltration product water tank, concentration water tank, ultra-concentration water tank, fresh water tank and concentrated liquid collection tank, the start and stop of the pump are controlled by setting a liquid level control system, which can realize the automatic operation of the wastewater treatment system.

[0037] In summary, for the nickel-containing electroplating wastewater treatment method of the present invention, the pretreatment system uses a microfiltration membrane device and a carbon filter to filter the wastewater, which can not only intercept and separate suspended solids but also retain nickel ions that need to be recovered. Moreover, sedimentation tanks and multimedia filtration can be omitted, and flocculants do not need to be added. Generally, the overall sludge volume is less than that of traditional processes, and the concentration is relatively high, so it can be directly sent to the sludge dewatering machine without further concentration. The carbon filter can effectively prevent the fouling of the membrane by organic matter. The separation device uses a reverse osmosis membrane for brackish water desalination, and the conductivity of the produced fresh water reaches below 200 us / cm, which can be reused in the water washing tank of the electroplating production line. Both the concentration device and the ultra-concentration device use D-series nanofiltration membranes to concentrate the wastewater, which can not only intercept divalent nickel ions but also reduce the pressure requirements for high-pressure pumps and pipelines compared with seawater desalination membranes. The nickel concentration in the concentrated liquid is not less than 40 g / L and can be reused in the electroplating mother tank of the production line. Both the fresh water reuse pump and the concentrated liquid reuse pump use variable frequency constant pressure pumps. When reusing, only the corresponding ball valves need to be opened for control, which not only protects the reuse pumps but also improves the automation level of the system. In the wastewater collection tank, microfiltration concentration water tank, microfiltration product water tank, concentration water tank, ultra-concentration water tank, fresh water tank, and concentrated liquid collection tank, the start and stop of the pumps are controlled by setting a liquid level control system, which can realize the automatic operation of the wastewater treatment system.
