Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] The present invention relates to the technical field of sewage treatment, and in particular to a multi-stage A / O tank sewage treatment system and method capable of dynamically switching between parallel / series modes, which is particularly suitable for the efficient treatment of highly toxic and high-ammonia nitrogen industrial wastewater. Background Art
[0002] Currently, a two-stage parallel A / O (anoxic / aerobic) tank process is widely used in industrial wastewater treatment. This process, which evenly distributes the influent load across two independently operated A / O tanks, is suitable for treating low-concentration wastewater with relatively stable water quality and quantity. However, this process suffers from significant drawbacks in practical applications: First, the parallel structure suffers from a short hydraulic retention time, resulting in incomplete nitrification / denitrification reactions and difficulty in efficiently removing high-concentration ammonia nitrogen. Second, toxic substances in the influent (such as hydrazines) directly enter the parallel tanks, lacking a buffering mechanism. This can easily lead to inhibition of microbial activity and system collapse (re-inoculation of sludge requires more than seven days). Furthermore, the traditional process uses fixed operating parameters (such as aeration rate and sludge return ratio) and is unable to dynamically adjust its structure to fluctuations in water quality and quantity, resulting in high energy consumption and poor adaptability. The core problem with existing technologies is that the rigid structure of the parallel A / O tanks cannot balance treatment efficiency and shock resistance, and the lack of intelligent control methods makes it difficult to meet the complex and changing needs of industrial wastewater treatment. Summary of the Invention

[0007] On the basis of the above technical solution, the present invention can also be improved as follows.
[0008] Furthermore, 1# first-level lifting device, 2# first-level lifting device, 1# first-level reflux valve, 2# first-level reflux valve, 1# first-level water outlet valve, 2# first-level water outlet valve, 1# second-level lifting device, 2# second-level lifting device, 1# flow sensor, 1# COD monitor, 1# ammonia nitrogen monitor, 2# flow sensor, 2# COD monitor and 2# ammonia nitrogen monitor are electrically connected to the control unit respectively.
[0009] Furthermore, the multi-stage A / O pool sewage treatment system capable of dynamically switching between parallel and series modes further includes: a bacterial seed tank for releasing toxic-resistant nitrifying bacteria concentrate into the 1# primary O pool and the 2# primary O pool. The bacterial seed tank is electrically connected to the control unit. The dosage of the toxic-resistant nitrifying bacteria concentrate is 0.5g / m 3 ~1.0g / m 3 .
[0010] Furthermore, the 1# primary lifting device, the 1# secondary lifting device, the 2# primary lifting device and the 2# secondary lifting device all adopt gas lift devices.
[0011] Furthermore, a 1# secondary water outlet valve electrically connected to the control unit is provided on the pool wall of the 1# secondary O tank at the 1# secondary buffer dilution zone.
[0012] Furthermore, a 2# secondary water outlet valve electrically connected to the control unit is provided on the pool wall of the 2# secondary O tank at the 2# secondary buffer dilution zone.
[0013] Based on the above technical solution, the present invention also provides a multi-stage A / O pool sewage treatment method capable of dynamically switching between parallel and series modes, which uses the above multi-stage A / O pool sewage treatment system capable of dynamically switching between parallel and series modes, comprising the following steps:
[0014] S10, wastewater flows into the 1# primary A pool and the 2# primary A pool of the primary A / O pool module;
[0015] If the ammonia nitrogen concentration is ≤30mg / L, the COD instantaneous load is ≤500mg / L, and the flow fluctuation is <20%, the sludge in the secondary sedimentation tank will be returned to the 1# primary A tank and the 2# primary A tank, and the sludge in the secondary sedimentation tank will be returned to the 1# secondary A tank and the 2# secondary A tank, and the sludge return ratio will be fixed at 50% to 100%;
[0016] Denitrifying bacteria use organic matter in the influent as a carbon source to reduce nitrate in the return sludge to nitrogen gas, achieving preliminary denitrification. Nitrifying bacteria oxidize ammonia nitrogen to nitrate and degrade COD at the same time. The aeration rate is automatically adjusted based on the feedback from the DO sensor to maintain the dissolved oxygen in the O tank. The effluent from the 1# secondary O tank and the 2# secondary O tank is collected into the public secondary sedimentation tank. After mud and water separation, the supernatant enters the subsequent treatment unit. If any of the following conditions are met: ammonia nitrogen concentration > 100 mg / L, COD instantaneous load > 1000 mg / L, flow fluctuation > 20%, or toxic substances are detected, the switching condition is triggered and the process enters S20.
[0017] S20, sending a switching instruction to the valve group and the lifting device to allow the primary A / O pool module and the secondary A / O pool module to operate in series;
[0018] Valve group adjustment: Close the 1# first-level water outlet valve and the 2# second-level water outlet valve, and open the 2# first-level return valve and the 1# second-level return valve;
[0019] Lifting device adjustment:
[0020] Start the 1# first-level lifting device to mix the effluent from the 1# first-level O tank with the return sludge and then send it into the 2# first-level A tank through the 1# return channel and the 2# first-level return valve;
[0021] Start the 2# secondary lifting device to mix the effluent from the 2# secondary O tank with the return sludge and then send it into the 1# secondary A tank through the 2# return channel and the 1# secondary return valve;
[0022] Four-stage A / O series operation:
[0023] First-stage A / O: Initially degrades COD and ammonia nitrogen. The mixed liquid in the 1# primary O pool is sent to the 2# primary A pool via the 1# primary lifting device through the 1# return channel and the 2# primary return valve. Then, the effluent from the 2# primary O pool enters the 2# secondary A pool via the 2# primary outlet valve.
[0024] The third stage A / O: further nitrification and denitrification, using the 2# secondary lifting device to send the mixed liquid in the 2# secondary O pool through the 2# return channel and the 1# secondary return valve into the 1# secondary A pool to form a four-stage circulation.
[0025] Furthermore, in S10, the dissolved oxygen in the O tank is maintained at 2 mg / L to 3 mg / L.
[0026] Furthermore, the toxic substance in S20 is total hydrazine.
[0027] Furthermore, the total hydrazine concentration in S20 is >200 mg / L.
[0028] The beneficial effects of the present invention are:
[0029] 1) Switchable modular structure design: Breaking the fixed layout of traditional A / O tanks, two groups of two-stage A / O tanks are designed as independent modules. Through the combination of a multi-channel valve group (such as a pneumatic butterfly valve) and a lifting device, dynamic switching between parallel mode and four-stage series mode is achieved. In parallel mode, the two groups of A / O tanks operate independently, reducing energy consumption and maintenance burden; in series mode, the lifting device drives the front-stage effluent and sludge mixture into the rear-stage tank body, forming a four-stage circulation, extending the hydraulic retention time, and fully enhancing nitrification and denitrification reactions, especially for the deep degradation of high-concentration ammonia nitrogen (such as above 100 mg / L) and toxic substances (such as total hydrazine 200 mg / L);
[0030] 2) Stepped buffering process driven by lifting and reflux: In series mode, a mixing and dilution zone is set up at the outlet of each A / O tank. The effluent from the front stage is mixed with the sludge return liquid and transported to the back stage tank through a lifting device. At the same time, the stepped structure gradually dilutes toxic substances (such as hydrazines) in the influent. Combined with the adaptive domestication of the microbial community, the toxicity inhibition concentration threshold is increased by 50%, significantly enhancing system stability.
[0031] 3) Intelligent dynamic control strategy: Based on real-time monitoring data from ammonia nitrogen, COD, and flow sensors, the system automatically triggers mode switching and parameter adjustments. For example, when influent ammonia nitrogen is detected to be greater than 100 mg / L or flow fluctuation is greater than 20%, the system switches to series mode and simultaneously increases the sludge return ratio to 150% to 200%. Simultaneously, shock-resistant nitrifying bacteria pre-stored in the culture chamber are added. When water quality stabilizes (e.g., ammonia nitrogen ≤ 30 mg / L), the system automatically resumes parallel mode to reduce energy consumption. This strategy addresses the hysteresis problem of traditional processes that rely on manual intervention, achieving a "perception-decision-execution" closed-loop control system, ensuring rapid response and sustained stable operation of the system under complex operating conditions.
[0032] 4) Significantly improved treatment efficiency: In series mode, the four-stage A / O tank extends the hydraulic retention time through gas stripping reflux, strengthening the synergistic effect of nitrification and denitrification reactions. The ammonia nitrogen removal rate is increased from less than 60% in the traditional parallel system to over 95%, and the COD removal rate is stabilized at over 90%;
[0033] 5) Significantly enhanced shock resistance: The series structure forms a "stepped buffer pool" that effectively alleviates the transient inhibition of toxic substances (such as hydrazines) on microorganisms through the dual effects of gradual dilution and biodegradation, expands the tolerance concentration fluctuation range by 50%, and avoids the risk of system collapse;
[0034] 6) Reduced energy consumption and operation and maintenance costs: In parallel mode, aeration volume is reduced by 30% to 40% (only two independent groups need to be maintained). In series mode, the low-power design of gas lift reflux uses gas lift power to replace high-energy-consuming mechanical pumps. The energy consumption of the gas lift device is reduced by more than 50% compared to mechanical pumps, and the overall energy consumption is reduced by 15% compared to traditional four-stage series systems. At the same time, the intelligent control strategy can dynamically adjust the operation mode according to water quality, reducing waste caused by excessive aeration or chemical addition.
[0035] 7) Rapid recovery and high adaptability: The system has a built-in bacterial culture chamber that can automatically add toxic-resistant nitrifying bacteria concentrate when it is impacted. Combined with the dynamic adjustment of the sludge return ratio (increased to 150% to 200% in series mode), the recovery period is shortened from the traditional 7 days to 3 days. In addition, the modular design supports flexible switching of operating modes. It is suitable for highly toxic wastewater (such as hydrazine hydrate and pharmaceutical wastewater) and can also cope with seasonal water surges (such as flow fluctuations of ±50% in the rainy season), achieving efficient adaptation of "one machine for multiple scenarios".

[0061] S10, wastewater flows into the 1# primary A pool 101 and the 2# primary A pool 103 of the primary A / O pool module, preferably with each group treating 50% of the load;

[0069] Start the 1# first-level lifting device 105 to mix the effluent from the 1# first-level O tank 102 with the return sludge and then send it into the 2# first-level A tank 103 through the 1# return channel 113 and the 2# first-level return valve 108;
[0070] Start the 2# secondary lifting device 206 to mix the effluent from the 2# secondary O tank 204 with the return sludge and then send it into the 1# secondary A tank 201 through the 2# return channel 213 and the 1# secondary return valve 207;
[0071] Four-stage A / O series operation:
[0072] First-stage A / O: Initially degrades COD and ammonia nitrogen. The mixed liquid in the 1# primary O tank 102 is sent to the 2# primary A tank 103 via the 1# return channel 113 and the 2# primary return valve 108 using the 1# primary lifting device 105. Then, the effluent from the 2# primary O tank 104 enters the 2# secondary A tank 203 via the 2# primary outlet valve 110.
[0073] The third stage A / O: further nitrification and denitrification, the mixed liquid in the 2# secondary O tank 204 is sent to the 1# secondary A tank 201 through the 2# return channel 213 and the 1# secondary return valve 207 by the 2# secondary lifting device 206, so as to form a four-stage circulation. Then the four-stage circulation at this time is: A1 (1# primary A tank 101) → O1 (1# primary O tank 102) → A3 (2# primary A tank 103) → O3 (2# primary O tank 104) → A4 (2# secondary A tank 203) → O4 (2# secondary O tank 204) → A2 (1# secondary A tank 201) → O2 (1# secondary O tank 202). Of course, in actual application, if the corresponding valves are opened, it can also be: A3 → O3 → A1 → O1 → A2 → O2 → A4 → O4. Since the process is similar to the above, it is not repeated here.
[0074] Furthermore, the dissolved oxygen DO in the O tank in S10 is maintained at 2mg / L~3mg / L, the toxic substance in S20 is total hydrazine, and the total hydrazine concentration in S20 is >200mg / L. The toxic substances are monitored through the raw water of the plant.
[0075] Sludge return ratio: Increase to 150% to 200% to enhance microbial activity.
[0076] The innovation of this invention lies in the construction of an efficient and flexible multi-stage A / O pool system through the coordinated optimization of structure, process and control:
[0077] 1) Switchable modular structure design: Breaking the fixed layout of traditional A / O tanks, two groups of two-stage A / O tanks are designed as independent modules. Through the combination of a multi-channel valve group (such as a pneumatic butterfly valve) and a lifting device, dynamic switching between parallel mode and four-stage series mode is achieved. In parallel mode, the two groups of A / O tanks operate independently, reducing energy consumption and maintenance burden; in series mode, the lifting device drives the front-stage effluent and sludge mixture into the rear-stage tank body, forming a four-stage circulation, extending the hydraulic retention time, and fully enhancing nitrification and denitrification reactions, especially for the deep degradation of high-concentration ammonia nitrogen (such as above 100 mg / L) and toxic substances (such as total hydrazine 200 mg / L);
[0078] 2) Stepped buffering process driven by lifting and reflux: In series mode, a mixing and dilution zone is set up at the outlet of each A / O tank. The effluent from the front stage is mixed with the sludge return liquid and transported to the back stage tank through a lifting device. At the same time, the stepped structure gradually dilutes toxic substances (such as hydrazines) in the influent. Combined with the adaptive domestication of the microbial community, the toxicity inhibition concentration threshold is increased by 50%, significantly enhancing system stability.
[0079] 3) Intelligent dynamic control strategy: Based on real-time monitoring data from ammonia nitrogen, COD, and flow sensors, the system automatically triggers mode switching and parameter adjustments. For example, when influent ammonia nitrogen is detected to be greater than 100 mg / L or flow fluctuation is greater than 20%, the system switches to series mode and simultaneously increases the sludge return ratio to 150% to 200%. Simultaneously, shock-resistant nitrifying bacteria pre-stored in the culture chamber are added. When water quality stabilizes (e.g., ammonia nitrogen ≤ 30 mg / L), the system automatically resumes parallel mode to reduce energy consumption. This strategy addresses the hysteresis problem of traditional processes that rely on manual intervention, achieving a "perception-decision-execution" closed-loop control system, ensuring rapid response and sustained stable operation of the system under complex operating conditions.
[0080] 4) Significantly improved treatment efficiency: In series mode, the four-stage A / O tank extends the hydraulic retention time through gas stripping reflux, strengthening the synergistic effect of nitrification and denitrification reactions. The ammonia nitrogen removal rate is increased from less than 60% in the traditional parallel system to over 95%, and the COD removal rate is stabilized at over 90%;
[0081] 5) Significantly enhanced shock resistance: The series structure forms a "stepped buffer pool" that effectively alleviates the transient inhibition of toxic substances (such as hydrazines) on microorganisms through the dual effects of gradual dilution and biodegradation, expands the tolerance concentration fluctuation range by 50%, and avoids the risk of system collapse;
[0082] 6) Reduced energy consumption and operation and maintenance costs: In parallel mode, aeration volume is reduced by 30% to 40% (only two independent groups need to be maintained). In series mode, the low-power design of gas lift reflux uses gas lift power to replace high-energy-consuming mechanical pumps. The energy consumption of the gas lift device is reduced by more than 50% compared to mechanical pumps, and the overall energy consumption is reduced by 15% compared to traditional four-stage series systems. At the same time, the intelligent control strategy can dynamically adjust the operation mode according to water quality, reducing waste caused by excessive aeration or chemical addition.
[0083] 7) Rapid recovery and high adaptability: The system has a built-in bacterial culture chamber that can automatically add toxic-resistant nitrifying bacteria concentrate when it is impacted. Combined with the dynamic adjustment of the sludge return ratio (increased to 150% to 200% in series mode), the recovery period is shortened from the traditional 7 days to 3 days. In addition, the modular design supports flexible switching of operating modes. It is suitable for highly toxic wastewater (such as hydrazine hydrate and pharmaceutical wastewater) and can also cope with seasonal water surges (such as flow fluctuations of ±50% in the rainy season), achieving efficient adaptation of "one machine for multiple scenarios".
