Description

Technical Field

[0001] The present invention relates to the technical field of medical wastewater treatment, and in particular to a BDD composite electrode, an electrode preparation method, and medical wastewater treatment equipment. Background Art

[0002] Boron-doped diamond electrodes can be used for electrochemical treatment of wastewater. They have high oxidation ability and can decompose organic matter and kill pathogens. Medical wastewater may contain complex components such as drug residues, bacteria, and viruses, which require high efficiency and stability to treat. Therefore, compared with traditional electrodes, boron-doped diamond electrodes (BDD) have many advantages such as wide window, small background current, good electrochemical stability, good mechanical properties, strong corrosion resistance, and good conductivity. They have good prospects in the field of electrochemical oxidation treatment of medical wastewater.

[0003] The patent publication number of the existing patent application is: CN220317491U, and the publication date is January 9, 2024. The name of the patent is "An electrochemical sewage treatment device". The patent includes an electrolytic water treatment cell, a movable plate is provided above the top of the electrolytic water treatment cell, a DC regulated power supply is fixedly installed on the top of the movable plate, and a cathode rod and an anode rod are fixedly connected on both sides of the bottom of the movable plate. The electrochemical sewage treatment device, the utility model uses the electrolytic water treatment cell, cathode rod, movable plate, DC regulated power supply, electric telescopic rod, anode rod, an annular cleaning plate, annular scraper and connecting block in combination. The annular cleaning plate drives the annular scraper to continuously scrape the outer wall of the anode rod vertically, so that the condensate generated on the anode rod is scraped off by the annular scraper before it can form scale, thereby solving the problem of passivation of the anode rod during the electrochemical reaction, which increases the resistance of the anode rod and reduces the electrochemical sewage treatment effect.

[0004] The above application has its shortcomings. It is difficult to balance the conductivity and mechanical strength of the substrate in the traditional electrode structure. The single titanium substrate is easily passivated, resulting in a decrease in current efficiency. The nickel substrate has insufficient corrosion resistance and is prone to heavy metal dissolution. The gradient transition layer has poor matching of thermal expansion coefficients. Interface cracks are easily generated during high-temperature deposition, leading to peeling of the diamond layer. At the same time, fiber impurities and sediments in the existing BDD electrode wastewater treatment system are easily attached to the electrode surface to form a pollution layer, which greatly reduces the efficiency of free radical generation. The degradation efficiency drops too much after treating multiple batches of wastewater. Frequent manual cleaning will cause the equipment downtime to account for too much, seriously affecting the continuity of treatment. In addition, in the traditional multi-layer filtration structure, suspended solids are easily intercepted and form a dense accumulation layer on the filter surface, causing the filtration pressure difference to double. When the suspended solids concentration in the wastewater is too high, conventional backwashing operations cannot effectively restore the flux, affecting the actual treatment efficiency.

[0040] See also Figure 1 , an embodiment of the present invention provides a BDD composite electrode, comprising:

[0041] The composite substrate 101 is composed of a nickel foam inner core and a titanium shell, and the titanium shell is formed into a porous structure by magnetron sputtering deposition;

[0055] Please refer to Figure 1-8The embodiment of the present invention provides a medical wastewater treatment device, comprising a treatment tank 2 and at least one pair of BDD composite electrodes 1, one of which is an anode and the other is a cathode. A lifting frame 3 is vertically movably installed on the top of the treatment tank 2, the pair of BDD composite electrodes 1 is installed in the lifting frame 3, an inverted V-shaped filter 4 is located below the pair of BDD composite electrodes 1, and a pair of elastic pulling rods 5 are installed between the lifting frame 3 and the inverted V-shaped filter 4. Both sides of the treatment tank 2 are equipped with a slag collecting box 6 connected thereto, and the connection is elastically plugged with a slag collecting box 6 that contacts the inverted V-shaped filter 4. A pair of waste scraping assemblies 7 are respectively installed on both sides of the top of the inverted V-shaped filter screen 4, and the waste scraping assemblies 7 and the abutment rod 201 are frictionally transmitted. The locking assembly 8 is horizontally installed on the top of the elastic pulling rod 5, and the two are connected to each other. A slot 105 matching the locking assembly 8 is provided on the BDD composite electrode 1. When the lifting frame 3 drives the inverted V-shaped filter screen 4 to move up and abut the abutment rod 201, the elastic pulling rod 5 moves up alone to drive the waste scraping assembly 7 to operate, and then the locking assembly 8 is pulled out from the slot 105.

[0056] Specifically, when the equipment is in operation, the wastewater is treated by the BDD composite electrode 1. When multiple batches of treatment are completed, the BDD composite electrode 1 and the inverted V-shaped filter screen 4 can be driven to rise by the lifting frame 3. When the elastic pulling rod 5 pulls the inverted V-shaped filter screen 4, since it is not rigidly connected to the inverted V-shaped filter screen 4, the inverted V-shaped filter screen 4 can shake and vibrate under the action of the water flow, and the impact of the water flow and its own vibration are used to effectively peel off most of the filter cake layer. When the inverted V-shaped filter screen 4 rises to the entrance of the slag collecting box 6, the abutment rod 201 is inserted into the groove reserved on the inner wall of the treatment tank 2, and one end of the abutment rod 201 is fixedly connected to a connecting spring in the groove, and the other end has a symmetrical inclined abutment surface. Since the inverted V-shaped filter screen 4 is abutted by the abutment rod 20 1, so when the abutment rod 201 is not completely pushed into the groove by the inverted V-shaped filter screen, only the elastic pulling rod 5 rises alone, thereby driving the waste scraping assembly 7 on the inverted V-shaped filter screen 4 through the elastic pulling rod 5 moving upward in a straight line, and quickly pushing the filter residue into the slag collecting box 6 to avoid insufficient vibration collection. Then, after continuing to lift the lifting frame 3, the elastic pulling rod 5 that rises to a certain height can enable the locking assembly 8 to release the electrode. The top of the BDD composite electrode 1 is fixed to the lifting frame 3 by a threaded connection. When the locking assembly 8 is inserted into the slot 105, the BDD composite electrode 1 cannot be disassembled. As long as the lifting frame 3 is lifted to a suitable height, the locking assembly 8 can be removed from the slot 105, and the disassembly of the bilateral electrodes is quickly completed.

[0057] Compared with the prior art, the embodiment of the present invention innovates the electrode structure and equipment linkage mechanism, uses a foam nickel / titanium composite matrix to construct a three-dimensional conductive network, reduces the bulk resistance, designs a gradient transition layer to achieve a continuous transition of the thermal expansion coefficient, improves the interface bonding strength, constructs a multi-level structure BDD layer, and the synergistic effect of micron through holes and nanocones increases the hydroxyl radical yield to several times that of traditional electrodes. At the same time, the elastic pulling rod 5 pulls up the inverted V-shaped filter 4, so that the inverted V-shaped filter 4 can generate high-frequency micro-amplitude vibration during the vertical stroke, destroying the formation of the surface filter cake layer and maintaining the effective flux of the filter. Then, the waste scraping assembly 7 and the elastic pulling rod 5 are used for friction transmission. When the inverted V-shaped filter screen 4 reaches the slag collecting box 6, the waste scraping assembly 7 is driven by the elastic pulling rod 5 to scrape the impurities attached to the filter screen toward the slag collecting box 6 to realize a directional collection mode. Moreover, after the lifting frame 3 moves further upward with the elastic pulling rod 5, the BDD composite electrode 1 can be quickly detached, so that it can be easily removed from the lifting frame 3. Under the premise of ensuring the stability of large current transmission, the electrode maintenance time is shortened. Through the coordinated innovation of mechanical vibration, directional scraping and rapid disassembly and assembly, the medical wastewater treatment flux is improved and the electrode maintenance cost is reduced. It is particularly suitable for continuous treatment scenarios of medical wastewater containing high concentrations of biofilm and colloidal impurities.

[0058] In a further embodiment of the present invention, both sides of the inner wall of the lifting frame 3 are slidably connected to the outer wall of the processing pool 2, and both sides of the processing pool 2 are fixedly connected to the limit blocks. The inner wall of the lifting frame 3 is vertically provided with a slide groove matching the limit blocks. A first shaft rod 202 and a second shaft rod 203 distributed up and down are installed in the processing pool 2. A driving motor 209 connected to the end of the first shaft rod 202 is installed outside the processing pool 2, and a transmission belt 204 is installed between the first shaft rod 202 and the second shaft rod 203. The two ends of the first shaft rod 202 are fixedly connected to a transmission gear 205, and one side of the lifting frame 3 is vertically fixedly connected to a driven rack 301 meshing with the transmission gear 205. The second shaft rod 203 is fixedly connected to a pair of abutting cams 206 below the inverted V-shaped filter screen 4, and an impeller 210 is also installed in the middle of the second shaft rod 203. Specifically, the driving motor 209 can drive the first shaft rod 202 and the second shaft rod 20 When the first shaft 202 rotates, its transmission gear 205 and the driven rack 301 on the lifting frame 3 are meshed together, and the lifting and lowering of the lifting frame 3 can be adjusted by the forward and reverse rotation of the first shaft 202. If the inverted V-shaped filter screen 4 pulled by the lifting frame 3 through the elastic pulling rod 5 is placed on the abutting cam 206, the second shaft 203 and the first shaft 202 rotate synchronously, the abutting cam 206 can be used to intermittently lift the inverted V-shaped filter screen 4, so that the inverted V-shaped filter screen 4 vibrates continuously, and the impeller 210 is used to stir the water flow, so that the debris attached to the inverted V-shaped filter screen 4 is separated from the water flow under the impact of the water flow, so that the waste residue can be quickly recovered when the inverted V-shaped filter screen 4 is subsequently lifted to the slag collecting box 6. At the same time, the closer the inverted V-shaped filter screen 4 is to the second shaft 203 below, the greater its own amplitude is, and the farther it is from the second shaft 203, the smaller its own amplitude is, thereby realizing dynamic slag removal and cleaning.

[0059] In a further embodiment of the present invention, the bottom of the elastic pulling rod 5 passes through the inverted V-shaped filter screen 4 and is installed with an abutment spring 501. The top of the abutment spring 501 contacts the bottom surface of the inverted V-shaped filter screen 4. Specifically, the abutment spring 501 forms a resonance system with the elastic pulling rod 5 through the pressure brought by the inverted V-shaped filter screen 4. When the lifting frame 3 moves vertically, the abutment spring 501 is subjected to the composite alternating load of the gravity of the inverted V-shaped filter screen 4 and the impact of the water flow. Through periodic compression and rebound, the mechanical energy is converted into high-frequency micro-vibration, which destroys the cohesion of the filter cake layer. In the scraping stage, the elastic potential energy accumulated by the abutment spring 501 can make the attached impurities easier to be peeled off by the waste scraping assembly 7. At the same time, the stiffness of the abutment spring 501 and the insertion of the elastic pulling rod 5 cooperate to suppress lateral vibration, ensure the accuracy of the scraping trajectory, and the equipment flux maintenance rate can be more lasting.

[0060] In a further embodiment of the present invention, the waste scraping assembly 7 includes a plurality of transmission shafts 701 rotatably mounted on the top surface of the filter screen, and the transmission shafts 701 are connected by a plurality of chains 703, and a transmission ring 702 is fixedly sleeved on one of the transmission shafts 701. An anti-slip strip 502 that is frictionally transmitted with the transmission ring 702 is vertically embedded on one side of the elastic pulling rod 5, and a plurality of scraping strips 704 are installed on the outside of two adjacent chains 703. Specifically, when the elastic pulling rod 5 is raised or lowered, the friction transmission between the anti-slip strip 502 and the transmission ring 702 converts the vertical movement into the rotation of the transmission shaft 701, allowing the chain 703 to drive the scraping strip 704 to slide along the surface of the inverted V-shaped filter screen 4. The blade edge of the scraping strip 704 exerts shear force on the filter residue, and combined with the elastic force of the abutting spring 501, it can scrape off colloidal agglomerates of various particle sizes, improve the cleaning effect, ensure that the scraping residue is not missed, and allow impurities to be pushed into the slag collecting box 6 along the filter screen.

[0061] In a further embodiment of the present invention, the locking assembly 8 includes a cylinder 801 connected to the interior of the elastic pulling rod 5. The interior of the elastic pulling rod 5 is hollow, and the air path in the rod body is connected to the cylinder 801. The cylinder 801 is movably connected with a lock tongue 802 that is adapted to the slot 105. A piston rod 503 is elastically embedded in the elastic pulling rod 5, and an elastic part is installed at the bottom of the piston rod 503. The outside of the elastic pulling rod 5 is movably connected with a connecting sleeve 504 connected to the bottom of the piston rod 503. The inner wall of the treatment pool 2 is fixedly connected with a retaining ring 207 for preventing the piston rod 503 from moving up together with the elastic pulling rod 5. The retaining ring 207 is sleeved on the outside of the elastic pulling rod 5, and its inner wall contacts the outer wall of the elastic pulling rod 5. The retaining ring 207 abuts against the connecting sleeve 504. Specifically, during the lifting process of the lifting frame 3, since the retaining ring 207 is sleeved on the outside of the elastic pulling rod 5, it can ensure that the lifting frame 3 as a whole will not deviate excessively when rising. When the lifting frame 3 is lifted to the electrode separation height, the piston rod 503 is blocked by the retaining ring 207 and moves downward relatively in the elastic pulling rod 5, and the gas in the cylinder 801 is drawn into the elastic pulling rod 5, so that the locking tongue 802 retracts toward the inside of the cylinder 801, and the locking tongue 802 leaves the slot 105 on the BDD composite electrode 1. The overall unlocking is smooth and the upward movement of the lifting frame 3 is utilized, which is easy to operate. When installing the electrode, it is necessary to first keep the lifting frame 3 with the elastic pulling rod 5 at the unlocking height of the locking assembly 8, install the upper electrode first, and then align the slot 105 with the position of the locking tongue 802. When the elastic pulling rod 5 descends, the piston rod 503 is reset under the push of the elastic member and pushes part of the gas into the cylinder 801, thereby pushing the locking tongue 802 to automatically insert into the slot 105 to complete the locking of the electrode, ensuring that the electrode is not loose under large shaking and high current conditions, and avoiding accidental separation of the electrode.

[0062] In a further embodiment of the present invention, an annular scale-removing knife 9 is movably installed inside the treatment pool 2, and the annular scale-removing knife 9 is located between the lifting frame 3 and the BDD composite electrode 1, and a pushing cam 208 for intermittently lifting the annular scale-removing knife 9 is installed on the first shaft 202. The annular scale-removing knife 9 is located on the lifting path of the BDD composite electrode 1, and a counterweight plate is installed on the annular scale-removing knife 9. Specifically, when the first shaft 202 rotates, it will not only drive the BDD composite electrode 1 to rise together, but also enable the annular scraper with a fixed height to comprehensively scrape and clean the surface of the moving BDD electrode, and the pushing cam 208 can intermittently lift the annular scale-removing knife 9, and the annular scale-removing knife 9 will automatically fall under the action of gravity, so that the impurities remaining on the blade when the annular scale-removing knife 9 is scraped are vibrated onto the inverted V-shaped filter 4, so as to facilitate the subsequent entry of the waste residue on the inverted V-shaped filter 4 into the slag collecting box 6.

It goes without saying that those skilled in the art will be able to modify the described embodiments in various ways without departing from the spirit and scope of the present invention. Therefore, the above drawings and description are illustrative in nature and should not be construed as limiting the scope of protection of the claims.
