Description

Technical Field

[0001] This invention relates to the field of sludge treatment and environmental deodorization technology, and in particular to an in-situ deodorization device for sludge biochar integrated into the drying process. Background Technology

[0002] Sludge is a solid waste generated during wastewater treatment. It contains a large amount of organic matter, pathogenic microorganisms, heavy metals, and other harmful substances. Improper handling can cause serious environmental pollution. Sludge drying is a key step in the reduction, harmlessness, and resource utilization of sludge. By removing water from the sludge, its volume can be significantly reduced, facilitating subsequent landfilling, incineration, or resource utilization.

[0003] In existing technical solutions, sludge drying and deodorization devices are mostly arranged separately, with the odorous gases generated during drying being transported to separate deodorization equipment via long-distance pipelines for treatment. This approach suffers from problems such as large equipment footprint, complex pipeline laying, high risk of condensate blockage due to temperature drop during gas transportation, high risk of leakage at pipeline joints, and delayed deodorization. Furthermore, the equipment investment and operating costs are high, and significant waste heat loss during drying makes it difficult to achieve efficient and simultaneous deodorization.

[0004] To address the aforementioned problems, this invention provides an in-situ deodorization device for sludge biochar integrated into the drying process. Summary of the Invention

[0005] The purpose of this invention is to solve the problems of disconnection between sludge drying and deodorization processes, pipeline condensation and blockage, low waste heat utilization rate, and easy leakage of odorous gases in the existing technology, and to propose an in-situ deodorization device for sludge biochar integrated into the drying process.

[0006] To achieve the above objectives, the present invention adopts the following technical solution: an in-situ deodorization device for sludge biochar integrated into the drying process, comprising a support frame, a sludge drying and deodorization reaction mechanism, and an exhaust gas purification mechanism, wherein the sludge drying and deodorization reaction mechanism is fixedly installed inside the support frame, and the exhaust gas purification mechanism is connected to the sludge drying and deodorization reaction mechanism.

[0007] The sludge drying and deodorization reaction mechanism includes a sludge drying component and a closed deodorization component. The sludge drying component is located above the closed deodorization component. The sludge drying component includes a drying tank, a spiral heating tube, a filter grid, and an inner wall scraper. The drying tank is fixedly connected to the top of the support frame. A first motor is fixedly connected to one end of the drying tank, and a rotating shaft is fixedly connected to the output end of the first motor. The inner wall scraper is fixedly connected to both ends of the outer surface of the rotating shaft. A spiral mixing plate is fixedly connected to the outer surface of the rotating shaft. The outer edge of the inner wall scraper slides against the inner wall of the drying tank, and a gap is left between the outer edge of the spiral mixing plate and the inner wall of the drying tank.

[0008] The sealed deodorization assembly includes a deodorization tank, a stirring shaft, an air distribution plate, and a small-pore filter layer. The deodorization tank is fixedly connected to the bottom of the support frame, the stirring shaft is rotatably connected to the inside of the deodorization tank, and the small-pore filter layer is fixedly connected to the inside of the air distribution plate.

[0009] Compared with the prior art, the advantages and positive effects of the present invention are as follows: This invention achieves integrated and synergistic sludge drying and in-situ deodorization by placing the sludge drying component above the sealed deodorization component. The integrated arrangement reduces heat loss, and the drying heat is concentrated in the drying tank for efficient heating of the sludge. At the same time, odorous gases can be directly introduced into the deodorization unit via a short path, reducing the risk of condensation blockage and leakage caused by pipeline transportation.

[0010] The spiral heating tubes are installed in a spiral shape on the inner wall of the drying tank, increasing the heating area and ensuring uniform drying. The inner wall scraper works in conjunction with the spiral mixing plate; the scraper adheres to the wall to clean up accumulated material, while the spiral mixing plate leaves gaps to transport sludge, preventing sludge adhesion from affecting drying efficiency. The gas distribution plate evenly disperses the odorous gases generated during drying into the biochar deodorizing packing, and the stirring shaft drives the packing and sludge to mix thoroughly. The sealing gaskets, combined with the tightening of the connecting bolts, effectively enhance the sealing at the connection between the drying tank and the deodorizing tank. The deep adsorption tower, induced draft fan, and gas filter plate work together to achieve deep purification of the exhaust gas. Attached Figure Description

A feed funnel 2191 is fixedly connected to the top of the drying tank 214, and a filter grid 212 is snapped into the inside of the feed funnel 2191.

[0018] The sealed deodorization assembly 22 also includes a deodorization tank 224 fixedly connected to the bottom of the support frame 1. A second motor 225 is fixedly connected to one side of the outer surface of the deodorization tank 224. One end of the stirring shaft 221 is fixedly connected to the output end of the second motor 225, and the other end of the stirring shaft 221 is rotatably connected to the inside of the deodorization tank 224. A small-pore filter layer 223 is fixedly connected to the inside of the air distribution plate 222.

[0021] Working Principle: First, the sludge to be treated is fed into the drying tank 214 through the feed funnel 2191. During the feeding process, the filter grid 212 filters out large impurities in the sludge. Then, the first motor 215 and the spiral heating tube 211 are started. The first motor 215 drives the rotating shaft 216 to rotate, which in turn drives the spiral mixing plate 217 and the inner wall scraper 213. The spiral mixing plate 217 moves the sludge at a uniform speed inside the drying tank 214 and mixes it thoroughly. The inner wall scraper 213 scrapes away accumulated sludge from the inner wall of the drying tank 214 in real time. The spiral heating tube 211 continuously provides heat to ensure uniform drying of the sludge. The integrated upper and lower arrangement reduces heat loss, concentrating heat within the drying tank 214 for efficient heating of the sludge.

[0022] After drying, the blocking plate 25 is manually opened, and the dried sludge enters the deodorization tank 224 under gravity through the conveying channel 24. The biochar deodorizing packing material inside the deodorization tank 224 comes into contact with the sludge. Simultaneously, the second motor 225 is started, driving the stirring shaft 221 to rotate, ensuring thorough mixing of the sludge and biochar deodorizing packing material to achieve deodorization. The induced draft fan 34 is then started, sequentially sending the exhaust gas into the filter 35 and the deep adsorption tower 33 for deep purification before being discharged in compliance with standards.
