Description
Technical Field
[0001] This invention relates to the field of liquid recycling technology, specifically a condensate recovery and treatment system for offshore platforms. Background Technology
[0002] The offshore platform condensate recovery and treatment system is a liquid recycling system used to collect, purify, and reuse condensate generated during the operation of offshore power platforms. Due to the large size of the large power equipment operating systems on offshore platforms, air conditioning, dehumidification, large units, and related process equipment continuously generate a certain amount of condensate during operation. Direct discharge of this condensate would not only waste freshwater resources but also increase the burden of wastewater treatment on the platform.
[0003] During the recycling and treatment process of condensate from offshore platforms, adverse external environmental factors such as sea winds and waves can cause surface fluctuations and water disturbances in the condensate entering the treatment system. This can re-stir up settled impurities, leading to instability in the settling process. If the condensate is directly delivered to the filtration module when settling is insufficient or the sampling location is unstable, a large amount of impurities will concentrate in the filter element, increasing the filtration load, easily causing filter element blockage, reduced filtration efficiency, and increased replacement frequency. Summary of the Invention
[0004] The purpose of this invention is to provide a condensate recovery and treatment system for offshore platforms to solve the problem of the lack of stable sedimentation and filtration methods for condensate in the prior art.
[0005] To achieve the above objectives, the present invention provides the following technical solution: a condensate recovery and treatment system for offshore platforms, comprising a recovery cabinet and an anti-wave sedimentation module, wherein an intelligent control module is installed inside the recovery cabinet, a filtration module is installed inside the recovery cabinet, a clean water tank and a wastewater collection module are respectively installed inside the recovery cabinet, and the filtration module is connected to the clean water tank.
[0006] The anti-wave sedimentation module includes a sedimentation cylinder with a sludge discharge plate installed at the bottom. The sludge discharge plate is connected to the sewage collection module through a pipe. A spiral buffer assembly is installed on the sedimentation cylinder. A central shaft is installed on the sludge discharge plate. From bottom to top, a swing cleaner, a conical baffle, and a water purification cylinder are installed on the central shaft. The bottom of the swing cleaner is close to the sludge discharge plate. A suspended liquid extractor is movably installed on the central shaft. The suspended liquid extractor is connected to the filter module through a pipe. An annular cavity is formed between the water purification cylinder and the sedimentation cylinder.
[0007] The intelligent control module controls and regulates the entire treatment system through its built-in control system. The wastewater collection module is a wastewater tank. The clean water tank is connected to external water-using terminals such as fire-fighting water tanks and domestic water tanks via pipes.
[0008] Furthermore, the spiral buffer assembly includes a spiral plate, which is installed at the top of the settling cylinder. An outer cylinder is installed on the spiral plate. The spiral plate, the outer cylinder, and the clean water cylinder constitute a spiral deceleration channel. An inlet is opened at the top of the spiral deceleration channel, and an outlet is opened at the bottom of the spiral deceleration channel. An upper baffle is installed on the spiral plate near the outlet, and a lower baffle is installed on the spiral plate near the outlet.
[0009] The inlet is located on the spiral plate, and the outlet is located on the settling tank. The inlet is connected to an external condensate recovery pipe. The spiral deceleration channel is a gently sloping spiral channel, and the surface of the channel is made of a high-friction coefficient material to relatively slow down the water flow velocity through friction.
[0010] An external condensate recovery pipe introduces condensate from the inlet into the spiral deceleration channel, allowing the water to flow slowly into the annular cavity after passing through a gentle passage. This prevents the water from falling directly into the annular cavity, which could impact the existing condensate and cause sediment to churn, affecting sedimentation efficiency. The condensate then flows from the annular cavity into the settling chamber. Impurities in the condensate settle due to gravity within the settling chamber. Upon contact with the conical baffle, the settled impurities slide down the drain slope and through the settling gaps into the collection chamber.
[0011] Meanwhile, the settled water enters the purification chamber through the purification inlet, becoming settled water; the settled water then enters the liquid collection tank through the liquid inlet gap. The control system activates the water pump, which extracts the settled water from the liquid collection tank and delivers it to the filtration module through pipes and the liquid collection pipe. The primary and secondary filter cartridges perform multi-stage filtration on the settled water. The filtered water then enters the purification tank through pipes. The intelligent control module distributes the purified water in the purification tank according to the water demand of the user through an external delivery device, thereby completing the condensate recovery process.
[0012] Furthermore, the swing cleaner includes a one-way rotating component mounted on a central shaft. Several swing rods are mounted on the one-way rotating component, and connecting rods are mounted on the swing rods. A scraper is mounted at the bottom end of the connecting rod, and the scraper is in close contact with the sewage discharge base plate. A counterweight is mounted at one end of the swing rod.
[0013] Furthermore, the one-way rotating component includes a ratchet and a rotating housing. The ratchet is mounted on a central shaft, and the rotating housing is rotatably mounted on the central shaft. Several spring plates are installed inside the rotating housing, and several pawls are rotatably mounted inside the rotating housing. The pawls mesh with the ratchet, one end of each spring plate is close to the pawl, and the swing rod is mounted on the rotating housing.
[0014] When the rotating shell rotates in the permissible direction, the pawl can slide along the ratchet tooth surface and engage with the next tooth groove in sequence, allowing the rotating shell to rotate smoothly; when the rotating shell rotates in the opposite direction, the pawl and the ratchet tooth groove form a stop, preventing the rotating shell from rotating back, so that the rotating shell can only rotate in one direction.
[0015] Furthermore, the suspended liquid extractor includes a sliding sleeve, which is movably mounted on a central shaft. A liquid extraction box is installed at the bottom of the sliding sleeve, and several liquid inlet slits are provided circumferentially on the liquid extraction box. A suspension plate is installed at the top of the sliding sleeve, and a liquid extraction pipe is installed on the liquid extraction box. The bottom of the liquid extraction pipe is connected to the inside of the liquid extraction box, and the top of the liquid extraction pipe passes through the suspension plate and is connected to the primary filter element through a pipe. Several overflow holes are provided on the suspension plate.
[0016] The suspension plate is made of low-density material and can use its own buoyancy to keep the suspended liquid sampler floating in the condensate water. The sliding sleeve slides with the central shaft, so that the suspended liquid sampler can only move up and down along the central shaft, preventing it from swinging significantly when the platform shakes or the liquid surface fluctuates, thereby improving the stability of the liquid sampling position.
[0017] When the condensate level in the water purification chamber changes, the suspension plate can rise and fall synchronously with the liquid level, and drive the liquid collection box to move up and down automatically along the central axis. This allows the liquid collection box to automatically adjust its height according to the liquid level without additional drive, so that the liquid collection box can always be kept in a relatively stable liquid collection area below the liquid surface. This avoids the liquid collection position being too high, which would cause foam, oil or floating light impurities to be sucked into the filter module, reducing the filter load and the risk of clogging.
[0018] The suspension plate has several overflow holes. When the liquid level in the purification chamber fluctuates due to platform shaking, the suspension plate can adhere to the upper part of the liquid surface to form a floating constraint, reducing large fluctuations in the liquid level. At the same time, some condensate can be slowly exchanged up and down through the overflow holes, dispersing and releasing the energy of the liquid surface fluctuations, preventing the suspension plate from being violently lifted or slapped due to water impact. Furthermore, because the suspension plate is guided and limited by the central axis through the sliding sleeve, it can only rise and fall stably along the central axis, making it less prone to tilting and shaking, further improving the stability of the liquid collection position and the liquid level in the purification chamber under shaking conditions.
[0019] The suspension plate is located at the top of the settling tank, the purification tank is located in the middle of the settling tank, and the conical baffle is located at the bottom of the settling tank, forming a multi-stage flow stabilization structure inside the settling tank from top to bottom. When the platform shakes, the upper suspension plate weakens the liquid surface fluctuations, the middle purification tank isolates the settling chamber and the purification chamber, and the lower conical baffle blocks sedimentation impurities. The three work together to reduce the overall sloshing amplitude of condensate in the settling tank, reduce the risk of foam, light impurities, and bottom sediments being rolled and migrated with the water flow, thereby improving the stability of settling and liquid collection under adverse environmental conditions.
[0020] Furthermore, the conical partition is provided with a sewage discharge slope, and the conical partition and the bottom of the water purification cylinder form a settling chamber. The settling chamber is connected to the annular cavity, and the conical partition and the inner wall of the settling cylinder form a settling gap, which is located at the bottom of the settling chamber.
[0021] The bottom of the water purification cylinder is provided with a few clean water holes, and the water purification cylinder is provided with a clean water chamber, which is connected to the sedimentation chamber.
[0022] Furthermore, a sludge collection ramp is provided on the sludge discharge base plate, and a sludge discharge outlet is provided on the sludge discharge base plate. The sludge discharge outlet is connected to the sewage collection module through a pipe. A sludge collection chamber is formed between the sludge discharge base plate and the conical partition plate. The sludge collection chamber is connected to the settling chamber through a settling gap.
[0023] Impurities entering the collection chamber are gradually drawn to the center of the discharge slab by the collection ramp. When the platform shakes due to external factors such as sea winds and waves, the treatment system shakes synchronously with the platform. The conical baffles can block and shield the impurities in the collection chamber, confining them within the collection area and making it difficult for them to be rolled back into the settling chamber with the shaking, thereby reducing the possibility of secondary turbidity in the condensate in the settling chamber.
[0024] Simultaneously, the counterweight oscillates under the influence of the shaking motion, causing the swing arm to oscillate synchronously. Since the swing arm is mounted on a unidirectional rotating component, it can only deflect intermittently in one direction, transforming the platform's irregular swaying into intermittent unidirectional rotation of the swing arm around its central axis. The swing arm further drives the scraper to rotate and sweep around the sludge collection slope via a connecting rod, continuously removing impurities adhering to the slope, reducing impurity deposition and lowering the risk of clogging the discharge outlet. The swing cleaner's self-oscillating design eliminates the need for an additional power source, saving marine energy.
[0025] The control system periodically opens the drain outlet, and the liquid in the collection chamber carries impurities from the drain outlet into the sewage collection module, thereby completing the sewage discharge.
[0026] Furthermore, the filtration module includes a primary filter element and a secondary filter element. The primary filter element is connected to the secondary filter element through a pipe, the primary filter element is connected to the liquid extraction pipe through a pipe, and the secondary filter element is connected to the purified water tank through a pipe.
[0027] A water pump is installed on the connecting pipe between the primary filter element and the inlet; the primary and secondary filter elements are used to filter the sedimentation water.
[0028] Compared with the prior art, the beneficial effects of the present invention are:
[0029] 1. By setting up a spiral deceleration channel, the external condensate is slowed down before entering the annular cavity, avoiding direct impact of the condensate on the original water in the settling cylinder, reducing water disturbance, and thus improving the stability and settling efficiency of the initial settling of the condensate.
[0030] 2. Through the combination of the settling chamber, conical baffle, settling gap and sludge collection chamber, impurities in the condensate can settle under the action of gravity and be guided into the sludge collection chamber along the conical baffle to collect and gather, thereby separating the settling area from the sludge collection area and reducing the risk of bottom impurities re-entering the settling chamber and causing secondary turbidity.
[0031] 3. By coordinating counterweights, swing arms, one-way rotating parts, connecting rods, and scrapers, the irregular swaying of the offshore platform caused by wind and waves is transformed into one-way intermittent scraping action of the scrapers. This allows the scrapers to perform follow-up cleaning of the sludge collection slope, reducing the accumulation of impurities, lowering the risk of clogging the discharge outlet, and reducing the use of additional power sources.
[0032] 4. By using a suspension plate, sliding sleeve, central shaft, and liquid collection tank, the liquid collection tank can automatically rise and fall with the changes in the liquid level in the purified water chamber, and always remain in a relatively stable liquid collection area below the liquid surface, preventing foam, oil, and floating light impurities from being sucked into the filter module, thereby reducing the subsequent filtration load.
[0033] 5. A multi-stage flow stabilization structure is formed by the upper suspension plate, the middle water purification cylinder and the lower conical baffle. The overflow hole on the suspension plate releases the energy of liquid surface fluctuations, so that the anti-wave sedimentation module can effectively reduce liquid surface fluctuations, isolate the water purification chamber and the sedimentation chamber and limit the rolling of bottom sedimentary impurities under the swaying conditions caused by sea wind and waves, thereby improving the stability of sedimentation and liquid extraction under adverse environmental conditions.

[0053] The swing cleaner 34 includes a one-way rotating component 341, which is mounted on a central shaft 37. Several swing rods 342 are mounted on the one-way rotating component 341. A connecting rod 345 is mounted on the swing rod 342. A scraper 344 is mounted at the bottom of the connecting rod 345. The scraper 344 is close to the sewage discharge base plate 35. A counterweight 343 is mounted at one end of the swing rod 342.
[0054] The one-way rotating component 341 includes a ratchet 3412 and a rotating housing 3411. The ratchet 3412 is mounted on the central shaft 37, and the rotating housing 3411 is rotatably mounted on the central shaft 37.

[0056] The suspended liquid extractor 38 includes a sliding sleeve 383, which is movably mounted on a central shaft 37. A liquid extraction tank 385 is installed at the bottom of the sliding sleeve 383. Several liquid inlet slits 386 are provided circumferentially on the liquid extraction tank 385. A suspension plate 381 is installed at the top of the sliding sleeve 383. A liquid extraction tube 384 is installed on the liquid extraction tank 385. The bottom end of the liquid extraction tube 384 is connected to the inside of the liquid extraction tank 385. The top end of the liquid extraction tube 384 passes through the suspension plate 381 and is connected to the primary filter element 5 through a pipe. Several overflow holes 382 are provided on the suspension plate 381.
[0057] The suspension plate 381 is made of low-density material and can use its own buoyancy to make the suspended liquid extractor 38 float in the condensate water. The sliding sleeve 383 is slidably engaged with the central shaft 37, so that the suspended liquid extractor 38 can only move up and down along the central shaft 37, avoiding large swaying when the platform shakes or the liquid surface fluctuates, thereby improving the stability of the liquid extraction position.
[0058] The working principle of this invention is as follows: An external condensate recovery pipe introduces condensate from the inlet 313 into the spiral deceleration channel 317. This allows the water to flow slowly into the annular cavity 10 after passing through a gentle channel, preventing the water from directly falling into the annular cavity 10 and impacting the existing condensate, which could cause sediment to churn and affect sedimentation efficiency. The condensate then falls from the annular cavity 10 into the settling chamber 11. Impurities in the condensate settle due to their own gravity within the settling chamber 11. Upon contact with the conical baffle 33, the settled impurities slide down the drain slope 331 and pass through the settling gap 332 into the collection chamber 9.
[0059] Meanwhile, the settled water enters the clean water chamber 12 through the clean water inlet 321, becoming settled water; the settled water enters the liquid collection tank 385 through the liquid inlet gap 386. The control system starts the water pump, which draws the settled water from the liquid collection tank 385 through the pipe and liquid collection pipe 384 and delivers it to the filtration module. The primary filter element 5 and the secondary filter element 6 perform multi-stage filtration on the settled water. The filtered water enters the clean water tank 7 through the pipe. The intelligent control module 1 distributes the clean water in the clean water tank 7 according to the water demand of the user through an external conveying device, thereby completing the condensate recovery treatment.
[0060] Impurities entering the collection chamber 9 are gradually drawn to the center of the discharge bottom plate 35 by the collection ramp 351. When the platform shakes due to external factors such as sea wind and waves, the treatment system shakes synchronously with the platform. The conical baffle 33 can block and shield the impurities in the collection chamber, confining them within the collection area and making it difficult for them to be rolled back into the settling chamber 11 with the shaking, thereby reducing the possibility of secondary turbidity of the condensate in the settling chamber 11.
[0061] Simultaneously, the counterweight 343 oscillates under the influence of the swaying motion, causing the swing rod 342 to oscillate synchronously. Since the swing rod 342 is mounted on the unidirectional rotating component 341, it can only deflect intermittently in one direction, transforming the platform's irregular swaying into unidirectional intermittent rotation of the swing rod 342 around the central axis 37. The swing rod 342 further drives the scraper 344 to rotate and scrape around the sludge collection slope 351 via the connecting rod 345, continuously removing impurities adhering to the sludge collection slope 351, reducing impurity deposition and lowering the risk of blockage at the discharge outlet 352. The self-oscillating design of the swing cleaner 34 avoids the need for an additional power source, saving marine energy.
[0062] The control system periodically opens the drain outlet 352, and the liquid in the collection chamber carries impurities from the drain outlet 352 into the sewage collection module 4, thereby completing the sewage discharge.
[0063] When the condensate level in the water purification chamber 12 changes, the suspension plate 381 can rise and fall synchronously with the liquid level, and drive the liquid collection box 385 to move up and down automatically along the central axis 37. This allows the liquid collection box 385 to automatically adjust its height according to the liquid level without additional drive, so that the liquid collection box 385 can always be kept in a relatively stable liquid collection area below the liquid surface. This avoids the liquid collection position being too high, which would cause foam, oil or floating light impurities to be sucked into the filter module, reducing the filter load and the risk of clogging.
[0064] The suspension plate 381 is provided with several overflow holes 382. When the liquid surface in the purified water chamber 12 fluctuates due to platform shaking, the suspension plate 381 can adhere to the upper part of the liquid surface to form a floating constraint, reducing the large fluctuations of the liquid surface. At the same time, some condensate can be slowly exchanged up and down through the overflow holes 382, so that the energy of the liquid surface fluctuation is dispersed and released, preventing the suspension plate 381 from being violently lifted or slapped due to water impact. Furthermore, since the suspension plate 381 is guided and limited by the central shaft 37 through the sliding sleeve 383, it can only rise and fall stably along the central shaft 37, and is not prone to tilting or shaking, further improving the stability of the liquid collection position and the liquid surface of the purified water chamber 12 under shaking conditions.
[0065] The suspension plate 381 is located at the upper part of the settling cylinder 36, the water purification cylinder 32 is located in the middle of the settling cylinder 36, and the conical baffle 33 is located at the lower part of the settling cylinder 36, forming a multi-stage stable flow structure inside the settling cylinder 36 from top to bottom. When the platform shakes, the upper suspension plate 381 weakens the liquid surface fluctuation, the middle water purification cylinder 32 isolates the settling chamber 11 and the water purification chamber 12, and the lower conical baffle 33 blocks the settling impurities. The three work together to reduce the overall shaking amplitude of the condensate in the settling cylinder 36, reduce the risk of foam, light impurities, and bottom sediments being rolled and migrated with the water flow, thereby improving the stability of settling and liquid collection under adverse environmental conditions.
