[0022] The technical solution of the utility model will be described clearly and completely below in conjunction with the accompanying drawings. Obviously, the described embodiments are only part of the embodiments of the present invention, not all of them. Based on the embodiments of the utility model, all other embodiments obtained by ordinary technicians in this field without creative work are within the scope of protection of the utility model.
[0023] Example
[0024] The utility model will be further described below in conjunction with the accompanying drawings.
[0025] like Figure 1 to Figure 2 As shown, the utility model provides an external anaerobic membrane bioreactor, comprising: a reflux tank 1, an anaerobic tank 4, a water outlet tank 5, an MBR membrane assembly 1 8, an MBR membrane assembly 2 9, a clean water tank 14, and a chemical cleaning tank 17 connected in sequence by a plurality of pipes.
[0026] The reflux tank 1 is provided with a reflux tank level gauge 2 and a reflux tank sewage lifting pump 3. The reflux tank level gauge 2 is used to detect the water level in the reflux tank 1. The reflux tank sewage lifting pump 3 is used to transport sewage to the anaerobic tank 4. The reflux tank level gauge 2 is interlocked with the reflux tank sewage lifting pump 3. The start and stop of the pump is controlled according to the liquid level of the reflux tank 1. When the liquid level is lower than the designed low water level, the reflux tank sewage lifting pump 3 is automatically closed through the automatic control system. When the liquid level is higher than the designed high water level, the reflux tank sewage lifting pump 3 is automatically opened through the automatic control system.
[0027] The water inlet of the anaerobic tank 4 is transported by the reflux tank sewage lifting pump 3. The rising flow rate of the wastewater in the anaerobic tank 4 is controlled at 1.5m / h through internal hydraulic circulation, so that the sludge in the system is in a swelling state, strengthening the contact and mass transfer between the wastewater and the microorganisms, and improving the removal effect of pollutants.
[0028] The effluent of the anaerobic tank 4 flows by gravity to the water outlet tank 5. The water outlet tank 5 is provided with a water outlet tank level gauge 6 and a water outlet tank sewage lifting pump 7. The water outlet tank level gauge 6 is used to detect the water level in the water outlet tank 5. The water outlet tank sewage lifting pump 7 is used to transport sewage to the MBR membrane assembly 8. The water outlet tank level gauge 6 is interlocked with the water outlet tank sewage lifting pump 7. The start and stop of the pump is controlled according to the liquid level of the water outlet tank 5. When the liquid level is lower than the designed low water level, the water outlet tank sewage lifting pump 7 is automatically closed through the automatic control system. When the liquid level is higher than the designed high water level, the water outlet tank sewage lifting pump 7 is automatically opened through the automatic control system.
[0029] The sewage lifting pump 7 of the outlet tank is used to transport sewage to the lower water inlet 10, and solid-liquid separation is carried out under the drive of pressure. The clean water that passes through the membrane enters the clean water tank 14 through the upper cleaning inlet 11, and the concentrated liquid returns to the reflux tank 1 through the top concentrated water outlet 12 and mixes with the raw water before going to the anaerobic tank 4 to continue participating in the reaction.
[0030] The MBR membrane assembly is provided with an MBR membrane assembly 1 8 and an MBR membrane assembly 2 9 of the same structure. When the membrane of the MBR membrane assembly 1 8 is polluted and the membrane flux decreases, the standby MBR membrane assembly 2 9 is started to operate. The MBR membrane assembly adopts a hollow fiber membrane, and the membrane material adopts polyvinylidene fluoride (PVDF) in the organic membrane. The inner diameter of the hollow fiber membrane is 0.7 mm, and the outer diameter of the hollow fiber is 1.2 mm.
[0031] Water cleaning is divided into lower cleaning and upper cleaning. During lower cleaning, the clean water tank sewage lifting pump 16 is started to transport clean water to the lower cleaning inlet 13, and the outlet water is transported to the reflux tank 1 through the top concentrated water outlet 12; after the lower cleaning is completed, it is changed to upper cleaning, and the clean water tank sewage lifting pump 16 is started to transport clean water to the upper cleaning inlet 11, and the outlet water is transported to the reflux tank 1 through the lower water inlet 10.
[0032] Chemical cleaning can be done by acid or alkaline cleaning. Acid cleaning uses 0.1% HCl (which can be increased or decreased appropriately depending on the specific water quality), and alkaline cleaning uses 0.05% NaOH + 0.1% NaOCl (which can be increased or decreased appropriately depending on the specific water quality). A chemical cleaning tank level gauge 18 and a chemical cleaning tank agent lifting pump 19 are provided in the chemical cleaning tank 17. The chemical cleaning tank level gauge 18 is used to detect the water level in the chemical cleaning tank 17. The chemical cleaning tank agent lifting pump 19 is used to transport chemicals to the MBR membrane assembly 8. The chemical cleaning tank level gauge 18 is interlocked with the chemical cleaning tank agent lifting pump 19. The start and stop of the pump is controlled according to the liquid level of the chemical cleaning tank 17. When the liquid level is lower than the designed low water level, the chemical cleaning tank agent lifting pump 19 is automatically closed by the automatic control system. When the liquid level is higher than the designed high water level, the chemical cleaning tank agent lifting pump 19 is automatically opened by the automatic control system.
[0033] Chemical cleaning is divided into lower cleaning and upper cleaning. For lower cleaning, the chemical cleaning tank reagent lifting pump 19 is turned on to transport the reagent to the lower cleaning inlet 13, soak for 1 hour, and the outlet water is sent to the chemical cleaning tank 17 through the lower water inlet 10. For upper cleaning, the chemical cleaning tank reagent lifting pump 19 is turned on to transport the reagent to the upper cleaning inlet 11, and the cleaning cycle is washed for 1 hour, and the outlet water is sent to the chemical cleaning tank 17 through the lower water inlet 10. After chemical cleaning, the cleaning liquid in the MBR membrane assembly and pipeline is drained and repeatedly rinsed with water until the rinse water is neutral.
[0034] The structure of the present invention and the specific operation process of the present invention are described below in conjunction with a specific implementation method of the present invention.
[0035] In a low-concentration wastewater treatment project, the wastewater first enters the reflux tank, and is transported to the anaerobic tank by the reflux tank sewage lift pump. The internal hydraulic circulation controls the rising flow rate of the wastewater in the anaerobic tank at 1.5m / h, so that the sludge in the system is in an expanded state, strengthening the contact and mass transfer between the wastewater and the microorganisms. The upper sewage of the anaerobic tank reaction device flows to the reflux tank by gravity, and is transported to the anaerobic tank by the reflux tank sewage lift pump. The sludge is deposited at the bottom of the anaerobic tank, ensuring the sludge concentration in the anaerobic tank. The effluent of the anaerobic tank flows to the outlet tank by gravity, and the outlet tank sewage lift pump transports the sewage to the MBR membrane assembly for solid-liquid separation. The clean water flows to the clean water tank by gravity, and the concentrated liquid is transported to the reflux tank and mixed with the raw water to the anaerobic tank to continue to participate in the reaction.
[0036] The MBR membrane assembly uses a hollow fiber membrane made of polyvinylidene fluoride. The inner diameter of the hollow fiber membrane is 0.5 mm and the outer diameter of the hollow fiber is 1.0 mm. When the membrane is polluted, it is cleaned underwater and above water. After the water cleaning, it is acid washed with 0.05% HCl. After the acid washing, the cleaning liquid in the MBR membrane assembly and pipeline is drained and repeatedly rinsed with water until the rinse water is neutral.
[0037] Obviously, the above embodiments are merely examples for the purpose of clear explanation, and are not intended to limit the implementation methods. For those skilled in the art, other different forms of changes or modifications can be made based on the above description. It is not necessary and impossible to list all the implementation methods here. The obvious changes or modifications derived therefrom are still within the scope of protection of the invention.
