Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This invention relates to the field of energy-saving treatment technology, and in particular to a high-efficiency cyclone aeration energy-saving treatment system for pulp and paper wastewater. Background Technology
[0002] As a crucial raw material industry for the national economy, the pulp and paper industry generates a large amount of highly polluting wastewater during its production process. This wastewater is characterized by high suspended solids content, poor biodegradability, deep color, high organic matter concentration, and complex composition. However, existing aeration systems for pulp and paper wastewater treatment still face numerous technical bottlenecks. First, traditional aeration equipment has inherent limitations. Microporous aerators are prone to clogging in high suspended solids wastewater environments, and after long-term operation, the bubble dispersion effect deteriorates, oxygen transfer efficiency decreases significantly, and there is a lack of effective stirring function, which easily leads to sludge deposition at the bottom of the tank. Although jet aerators have relatively better anti-clogging properties, they require additional high-pressure circulating water pumps, resulting in high energy costs. Furthermore, the nozzles are prone to scaling, affecting the gas-liquid mixing effect. Second, the existing treatment systems lack synergistic design. The aeration unit and the oxidation and decolorization unit lack linkage and coordination. The unreasonable layout of the air supply structure leads to uneven distribution of dissolved oxygen in the tank. The filter layer in the oxidation and decolorization stage is easily clogged by suspended solids, and the activated sludge does not have sufficient contact with the gas and liquid, resulting in low pollutant degradation efficiency and large fluctuations in treatment effect. Summary of the Invention

[0014] Compared with existing technologies, the beneficial effects achieved by this invention are as follows: This invention adopts a modular design. Through overall system structure optimization and synergistic design of core components, the device achieves deep purification and stable operation of pulp and paper wastewater. The aerators arranged in an array in the aeration tank are based on fluid dynamics principles, which can form a spiral upward flow and a bottom negative pressure entrainment effect, effectively refining the bubble particle size and extending the gas-liquid contact time, significantly improving oxygen transfer efficiency. The distributed layout of multiple sets of corrosion-resistant air supply manifolds and high-pressure air supply nozzles in the oxidation and decolorization tank can ensure uniform distribution of dissolved oxygen in the tank, driving the activated sludge and wastewater to mix thoroughly, enhancing the degradation of recalcitrant organic matter and coloring substances. At the same time, it prevents clogging of the filter screen and activated sludge chamber. Together with the activated carbon filter layer, it forms a graded purification system that sequentially intercepts suspended solids, degrades pollutants, and adsorbs residual color and organic matter, ensuring stable effluent quality that meets standards. The system also has good resistance to water quality fluctuations and strong operational reliability. In terms of energy saving and carbon reduction, the device adopts a combination design of array aeration and multi-manifold precise air delivery, coupled with variable frequency drive and intelligent control mechanism, which can dynamically adjust the aeration volume according to wastewater treatment needs, avoid ineffective energy consumption, and significantly reduce system operating energy consumption, which is in line with the concept of green and low-carbon development. In terms of operation and maintenance and adaptability, the negative pressure suction structure of the aerator and the reverse purging effect of the high-pressure air nozzle can effectively avoid sludge deposition and component blockage, extend the maintenance cycle, and reduce operation and maintenance intensity and cost.

[0020] Working Principle: Using this invention, pulp and paper wastewater first enters the chamber 2 of the aeration tank 1. The array of aerators 3, evenly arranged on the inner surface of the bottom of the chamber 2, starts simultaneously. Based on fluid dynamics principles, these aerators 3 create a spiral upward flow within the chamber through high-speed airflow injection, simultaneously forming a stable negative pressure entrainment effect at the bottom. This thoroughly mixes the activated sludge and wastewater at the bottom of the chamber 2. During the spiral upward process, the airflow is refined into microbubbles by the internal cutting structure, significantly extending the gas-liquid contact time and providing sufficient dissolved oxygen for the degradation of organic matter in the wastewater, achieving preliminary and efficient degradation of pollutants. The wastewater, after preliminary treatment in the aeration tank 1, is discharged through the outlet 4 on one side of the upper inner wall of the chamber 2. The outlet 4 is connected to... The flange 5 ensures a secure and sealed connection with the transmission pipeline 6. Wastewater is smoothly transported along the transmission pipeline 6, and the first one-way valve 7 precisely controls the flow direction to prevent backflow. Then, it enters the oxidation decolorization tank 8 through the inlet 9 on one side of the outer wall. The second one-way valve 10 between the inlet 9 and the transmission pipeline 6 further ensures unidirectional and orderly flow, preventing cross-contamination between wastewater from different treatment stages. After entering the inner cavity 11 of the oxidation decolorization tank 8, the wastewater first flows through the anti-clogging filter 20. The anti-clogging filter 20 effectively intercepts large suspended particles in the wastewater, preventing clogging of subsequent functional components from the source. The filtered wastewater smoothly enters the activated sludge chamber 12 between the anti-clogging filter 20 and the activated carbon filter layer 21. Simultaneously... An external air source stably supplies gas to each anti-corrosion air supply manifold through the connection port 18 of the connecting pipe 19 and the input ends of the first anti-corrosion air supply manifold 13, the second anti-corrosion air supply manifold 14, the third anti-corrosion air supply manifold 15, and the fourth anti-corrosion air supply manifold 16. The gas is ejected at high speed through high-pressure air nozzles 17 evenly arranged on each manifold, creating a violent stirring effect in the activated sludge chamber 12. This ensures that the activated sludge, wastewater, and dissolved oxygen come into full contact and mix, enhancing the deep degradation of recalcitrant organic matter and color-causing substances. The wastewater, after deep treatment in the activated sludge chamber 12, permeates upwards to the activated carbon filter layer 21. The activated carbon filter layer 21 efficiently adsorbs residual color, organic matter, and trace pollutants, achieving further purification and decolorization of the water. The purified wastewater... Water is discharged through the outlet 22 on the upper inner wall of the inner cavity 11 and precisely transported to the sedimentation tower 24 via the conveying pipe 23. The third one-way valve 25 between the conveying pipe 23 and the sedimentation tower 24 strictly controls the direction of water flow to prevent backflow of water in the sedimentation tower 24 from affecting the treatment effect. The wastewater undergoes full solid-liquid separation in the sedimentation tower 24, and suspended impurities slowly settle under gravity. The upper clarified liquid is transported to the disinfection tank 27 via the connecting pipe 26 at the bottom of the sedimentation tower 24. The fourth one-way valve 28 between the connecting pipe 26 and the disinfection tank 27 ensures continuous unidirectional flow of water. After the wastewater is sterilized in the disinfection tank 27, it finally meets the relevant requirements for the reuse or discharge of pulp and paper wastewater, realizing efficient purification and resource recycling of wastewater.
