[0002] With the continuous development of the petroleum industry, the treatment of high-salt oil and gas field wastewater has become a major challenge faced by the industry. Such wastewater usually has characteristics such as high salinity, high hardness, high COD and TDS, and is difficult to degrade.

[0027] The content of the present invention can be more easily understood by referring to the following detailed description of the preferred implementation methods of the present invention and the included embodiments. Unless otherwise defined, all technical and scientific terms used herein have the same meaning as commonly understood by those of ordinary skill in the art to which the present invention belongs. When there is a contradiction, the definition in this specification shall prevail.

[0028] Such as Figure 1-2As shown in the figure, an oil and gas field water treatment system includes a pre-sedimentation treatment system 100. The pre-sedimentation treatment system 100 at least includes a chemical dosing unit and a sedimentation tank unit. Specifically, the chemical dosing unit is arranged at at least one end of the sedimentation tank unit. The chemical dosing unit is specifically a chemical dosing device, which stores at least two chemicals, PAC (polyaluminium chloride) and PAM (polyacrylamide). After the chemicals are stirred, they are added to the sedimentation tank unit through a metering pump. By adding 0.01% PAC as a flocculant, the colloids and suspended solids in the water are destabilized and aggregated mainly through the compression of the double electric layer and the adsorption bridging effect, forming fine flocs. By adding 0.002% PAM as a coagulant aid, through the adsorption sweeping and net trapping effects of the polymer chains, the small flocs are further aggregated into large and dense flocs, accelerating the sedimentation speed. The synergistic effect of the two can significantly improve the solid-liquid separation efficiency, reduce the turbidity and suspended solid content of the effluent, and improve the sludge dewatering performance at the same time. It can effectively remove large particle sludge in the sedimentation tank unit. In some embodiments, the chemical dosing unit, i.e., the chemical dosing device, includes a 2t chemical storage tank, a mechanical diaphragm metering pump with a flow rate of 30L / h, a pneumatic motor stirring device, and inlet and outlet pipelines (not shown in the figure).

[0029] Optionally, inclined tube sedimentation fillers can be arranged in the sedimentation tank unit. They are installed in the middle of the sedimentation tank unit and can quickly sediment the reacted flocs to the bottom cone of the sedimentation tank unit. A sludge discharge pipe is arranged at the bottom of the bottom cone, and a pneumatic sewage discharge valve is arranged on the sludge discharge pipe to discharge the sludge. Optionally, about 12m 3 of inclined tube fillers are arranged in the sedimentation tank unit. The material of the inclined tube fillers is polypropylene, and the thickness is 0.8mm. The inclined tube fillers are spliced and installed at the bottom of the sedimentation tank unit.

[0030] Optionally, a liquid level transmitter is arranged in the sedimentation tank unit, which can effectively solve the problem of water level overflow in the sedimentation tank unit. In some embodiments, the shutdown height limit of the liquid level transmitter can be set to 0 - 800mm.

[0031] The oil and gas field water treatment system further includes a filtration system 200. The filtration system 200 is connected to the pre-sedimentation treatment system 100. The wastewater treated by the pre-sedimentation treatment system 100 enters the filtration system 200. The filtration system 200 includes at least a plurality of filtration modules with a precision of 1-5 μm, which are used to remove small particle impurities in the wastewater. Specifically, the filtration system 200 is a CXM filtration system 200, which includes at least one CXM filtration module group, and also includes structures such as an automatic online cleaning device, a pump valve system, and a PLC automatic control system. The wastewater with small particle suspended solids treated by the pre-sedimentation treatment system 100 is injected into the CXM filtration system 200 by a centrifugal pump. The precision of the CXM filtration equipment is 1-5 μm, and various insoluble impurities in the water body will be completely intercepted. The turbidity of the water discharged from the filtration system 200 is <1 NTU, and the purified clear liquid flows into the main pipeline clear liquid tank. At the same time, every about 0.3-0.5 h, the filtration system 200 automatically performs backwashing and online automatic cleaning with a small amount of clear liquid (about 1%-3%), and returns the backwashing cleaning water with a higher impurity concentration to the sedimentation tank to be discharged to the plant sludge tank for combined treatment.

[0032] Optionally, the filtration system 200 at least includes a filter module group, which filters and removes small particle insoluble substances in the pretreated cooling water to ensure the water quality of the discharged water, and can fully automatically perform functions such as exhaust, filtration, cleaning, backwashing, and slag discharge. In some embodiments, every six groups of CXM filter module groups form a treatment line, and a total of two treatment lines are set. The treatment capacity of a single treatment line can reach 22.5 m 3 / h. In some embodiments, the size of each filter module group is about φ355*1500, the shell is made of stainless steel material, and an integral high-strength filter element tank plate and a polypropylene fiber filter element are adopted, with a precision of 2-5 μm.

[0033] Optionally, the filter module group is connected to the clear liquid storage tank through an outlet pipeline. The clear liquid storage tank is used to buffer part of the clear liquid to perform backwashing on the filter module group. In some embodiments, the clear liquid storage tank adopts a 10t-class PE water storage tank with a diameter of about 1.5 m and a height of about 1.8 m.

[0034] A backwashing pipeline is also connected between the clear liquid storage tank and the filter module group. The clear liquid storage tank can perform backwashing on the above-mentioned filter module group. A backwash pump is connected in the backwashing pipeline, which is used to provide energy for the backwashing clear liquid;

[0035] The filter module group is connected to the valve pump group, the clear liquid storage tank is connected to the sterilizer, and a water outlet is arranged on one side of the sterilizer.

[0036] The oil and gas field water treatment system also includes a security filter system 300, which is connected to the filtration system 200. Specifically, it is a pre - security filtration device, including a liquid supply clean water tank, a security filter group, a security filter liquid supply pump, and a scale inhibitor dosing device. The liquid supply clean water tank is used to provide the influent water for in - depth security filtration, and it can share a clear liquid storage tank with the CXM filtration system 200. The security filter group conducts security filtration before the membrane distillation to avoid accidental insoluble pollution of the water quality. In some embodiments, there are two sets of security filter groups, and each set includes five PPH filtration modules and 90 linear wound filter elements. The liquid supply pump of the security filter injects the clear water in the liquid supply clean water tank into the security filter. In some embodiments, a horizontal centrifugal pump with a power of 4 kW is used. The scale inhibitor dosing device stores the prepared reverse osmosis scale inhibitor, stirs the agent, and quantitatively adds it through a metering pump. The scale inhibitor dosing device includes a 1t - level agent storage tank, a 30L / h mechanical diaphragm metering pump, and a pneumatic motor stirring device.

[0037] Since the oil and gas field wastewater contains relatively high levels of chloride ions and calcium - magnesium ions, desalination treatment is required to meet the discharge standards. And due to the extremely high content of oilfield wastewater, an evaporation process needs to be used for further in - depth treatment. In related technologies, a triple - effect evaporation or MVR evaporation system is generally adopted, but it has the defects of high operating costs and large initial investments. In the present invention, a three - in - one evaporation system is adopted, which specifically includes a pre - heating system 400 and a thin - film evaporation system 500. The pre - heating system 400 is an evaporation heating system, which uses solar heating or electric auxiliary heating. By preliminarily heating the material to make it close to the evaporation temperature, the energy consumption in the subsequent evaporation process is reduced and the treatment efficiency is improved. In some other achievable embodiments, air - source heat pumps can also be used for heating.

[0038] Optionally, the thin - film evaporation equipment includes a thin - film evaporation equipment main body, a vacuum pump, a multi - stage centrifugal pump, a valve group, and an automatic control system. The thin - film evaporation equipment main body includes ten PPH plastic plus fiberglass evaporation towers and ten absorption towers, and each set of PTFE evaporation membranes is 30m 2 . The vacuum pump is used to achieve the secondary evaporation function. The multi - stage centrifugal pump pressurizes the raw water and injects it into the reverse osmosis membrane element for purification treatment. The valve group is preferably a pneumatic valve group, which is used to control the reverse osmosis equipment to integrate different pneumatic valves and instruments in one unit, facilitating installation, commissioning, and maintenance.

[0039] Optionally, a regeneration system is also included. The regeneration system includes a regeneration pump, which chemically regenerates and cleans the membrane element after long - term use. The regeneration valve is linked with the regeneration pump and is used to open or close the chemical regeneration pipeline. A chemical regeneration storage tank, which is connected to the regeneration pump, is used to buffer part of the regeneration clear liquid for the chemical regeneration of the equipment.

[0040] Finally, it should be noted that the above are only the preferred embodiments of the present invention and are not intended to limit the present invention. Although the present invention has been described in detail with reference to the foregoing embodiments, those skilled in the art can still modify the technical solutions recorded in the foregoing embodiments or perform equivalent replacements for some of the technical features. Any modifications, equivalent replacements, improvements, etc. made within the spirit and principle of the present invention shall be included within the protection scope of the present invention.
