Detailed implementation manners

[0025] Next, the technical solutions in the embodiments of the present invention will be clearly and completely described in conjunction with the accompanying drawings in the embodiments of the present invention. Obviously, the described embodiments are only a part of the embodiments of the present invention, rather than all the embodiments. Based on the embodiments of the present invention, all other embodiments obtained by those of ordinary skill in the art without creative efforts shall fall within the protection scope of the present invention.

[0026] Please refer to Figure 1-8 , the present invention provides a technical solution: a steelmaking wastewater recycling and treatment circulation system for a steel mill, including a liquid recovery module 1, a gas recovery module 2, a cooling circulation module 3, a coarse filtration module 4, and a flocculation and precipitation module 5;

[0027] The liquid recovery module 1 and the cooling circulation module 3 are combined to form an indirect cooling water circulation system.

[0028] The liquid recovery module 1 includes a liquid pump 11, and the water inlet and outlet of the liquid pump 11 are respectively communicated with a suction pipe 12 and a water supply pipe 13;

[0029] The cooling circulation module 3 includes a circulation box 31 with a hollow interior. At the top and bottom of the middle cavity of the circulation box 31, a plurality of upper partition boards 32 and a plurality of lower partition boards 33 are respectively vertically fixedly connected. The plurality of upper partition boards 32 and the plurality of lower partition boards 33 are arranged at intervals. Both ends inside the circulation box 31 are fixedly connected with a hollow frame 35 with a hollow interior through a connecting block. The inside of one hollow frame 35 is horizontally communicated with a plurality of connecting pipes 34, and the other ends of the plurality of connecting pipes 34 penetrate through the plurality of upper partition boards 32 and the plurality of lower partition boards 33 and are communicated with the other hollow frame 35. The tops of both hollow frames 35 are vertically communicated with an inlet and outlet pipe 36, and the tops of both inlet and outlet pipes 36 penetrate through the upper surface of the circulation box 31 and extend upward. The two ends of the circulation box 31 are respectively penetrated and provided with a liquid inlet 37 and a liquid outlet 38.

[0030] The indirect cooling water used in the steelmaking process does not come into direct contact with the surface of the steel billet or other structures. After use, this part of the cooling water does not contain other substances, and it can be directly cooled during treatment. This system pumps this part of the cooling water into the circulation tank 31 of the cooling circulation module 3 through the liquid pump 11. At the same time, the heat exchange fluid is sent into the hollow frame 35 inside the circulation tank 31 through the inlet and outlet pipes 36. The cooling water entering the circulation tank 31 will exchange heat with the heat exchange fluid in the multiple connecting pipes 34 inside it. While cooling the cooling water, this part of the heat can also be transported out through heat exchange, reducing resource waste.

[0031] The liquid recovery module 1, the gas recovery module 2, the coarse filtration module 4, and the flocculation and precipitation module 5 are combined to form a direct cooling water and washing wastewater circulation system.

[0032] The gas recovery module 2 includes a condensation box 21. Inside the condensation box 21, a plurality of connecting frames are fixedly connected. The bottom ends of the plurality of connecting frames are fixedly connected with a bent condensation pipe 22. Both ends of the condensation pipe 22 penetrate through the top end of the condensation box 21 and extend outward. A gas collecting pipe 23 is horizontally communicated with one side surface of the condensation box 21. The other end of the gas collecting pipe 23 bends downward and expands to form a gas collecting hopper 24. Inside the gas collecting hopper 24, an exhaust fan 25 is fixedly connected. A drain port is vertically penetrated and opened in the middle of the bottom end of the condensation box 21. A water tank 26 with an open top is arranged at the bottom end of the condensation box 21. A water outlet pipe 27 is horizontally communicated with the bottom end of one side surface of the water tank 26.

[0033] The coarse filtration module 4 includes a main pipe 41. The middle part of the main pipe 41 expands to form a spherical shape. A vertically closed riser 42 is vertically communicated with the top end of the middle part of the main pipe 41. Inside the riser 42, a filter screen cylinder 43 is vertically fixedly connected. A connecting ring 44 is fixedly connected to the front end inside the main pipe 41. The rear end surface of the connecting ring 44 is fixedly connected with a filter screen pipe 45. The other end of the filter screen pipe 45 is communicated with the inside of the filter screen cylinder 43.

[0034] At the bottom of the inside of the riser 42, a screw conveyor 410 located inside the filter screen cylinder 43 and coaxial with and adapted to it is vertically rotatably connected. A plurality of support rods 47 are vertically fixedly connected to the outer edge of the top end of the riser 42. The top ends of the plurality of support rods 47 are horizontally fixedly connected with a top plate 48. A first motor 49 is fixedly connected to the top end of the top plate 48. The output shaft of the first motor 49 rotatably penetrates through the top plate 48 and the top end of the riser 42 and is fixedly connected to the top end of the rotating shaft of the screw conveyor 410.

[0035] The cooling water that directly contacts the billet is called direct cooling water. This cooling water will turn into steam after contacting the billet. At this time, it can be recovered by the gaseous recovery module 2. The exhaust fan 25 in the gaseous recovery module 2 continuously operates to absorb the steam into the gas collecting hopper 24, and then enters the inside of the condensation box 21 through the gas collecting pipe 23. A low-temperature fluid continuously flows in the condensation pipe 22 in the condensation box 21, and the steam can condense on the condensation pipe 22 and finally drip into the inside of the water tank 26.

[0036] There is also some washing wastewater, which includes a large amount of slag blocks and impurities. Both it and the direct cooling water need to be filtered through the coarse filtration module 4. After entering the coarse filtration module 4, the impurities in the wastewater will be blocked by the filter screen cylinder 43 and the filter screen pipe 45 and cannot move backward continuously. At the same time, the auger 410 continuously rotates under the drive of the first motor 49, and its rotation can drive the impurities gathered inside the filter screen cylinder 43 to move upward. A plurality of sewage outlets 46 are opened at the top of the riser pipe 42, and these large impurities filtered out can be discharged through the sewage outlets 46.

[0037] After the wastewater passes through the coarse filtration module 4, it will enter the flocculation and precipitation module 5. After entering it, the wastewater will first flow irregularly under the action of a plurality of zigzag plates 52 to ensure its full fusion with the flocculant. And a plurality of second motors 53 continuously operate. Driven by the rotation of the stirring blades 55 they drive, the fluidity of the wastewater in the flocculation tank 51 becomes better, and it can also ensure the effect of its fusion with the flocculant. After passing through the flocculation tank 51, the wastewater will enter the sedimentation tank 56 for sedimentation. A vacuum sewage discharge device is arranged outside the sedimentation tank 56, which can suck away the sedimented sludge.

[0038] In this device, the liquid recovery module 1 and the cooling circulation module 3 form a circulation system for indirect cooling water. The indirect cooling water is sent to the cooling circulation module 3 through the liquid recovery module 1 for heat exchange and cooling, and then directly returns to the circulation system. It has high efficiency and consumes less resources. While the liquid recovery module 1, the gaseous recovery module 2, the coarse filtration module 4 and the flocculation and precipitation module 5 can form a circulation system for direct cooling water. Through the coarse filtration of the coarse filtration module and the flocculation and precipitation of the flocculation and precipitation module, the cooling water or washing water containing various impurities generated in different processes can be fully purified to ensure that they can all meet the discharge requirements before being put into the circulation system. The multiple modules work together to separately treat the wastewater in different processes, reducing the waste of resources while ensuring the treatment effect.

[0039] It should be noted that in this text, relational terms such as first and second are only used to distinguish one entity or operation from another entity or operation, and do not necessarily require or imply any actual relationship or order between these entities or operations. Moreover, the terms "comprising", "including" or any other variant thereof are intended to cover non-exclusive inclusion, so that a process, method, article or device comprising a series of elements not only includes those elements, but also includes other elements not expressly listed, or elements inherent to such process, method, article or device.

[0040] The above are only the preferred embodiments of the present invention and are not intended to limit the present invention. Any modifications, equivalent replacements, improvements, etc. made within the spirit and principles of the present invention shall be included within the protection scope of the present invention.
