Description

Technical Field

[0001] The utility model belongs to the field of sewage treatment, and specifically relates to a bidirectional cross-flow submerged flow wetland system. Background Art

[0002] In recent years, subsurface artificial wetlands have been widely used in sewage treatment, especially in the treatment of micro-polluted water bodies, due to their high removal efficiency of ammonia nitrogen and organic matter, high stability and resistance to shock loads. Subsurface wetlands purify pollutants mainly through the fillers in the wetlands and the microorganisms growing on them. The fillers mainly intercept pollutants in sewage through physical filtration, and the microorganisms growing on them mainly remove pollutants through absorption and degradation.

[0003] With the operation of the wetland system, non-filterable substances such as organic and inorganic suspended solids in sewage, insoluble precipitates formed by reactions between some ions, etc. gradually accumulate in the pores of the filler and occupy the pores. In addition, a large number of microorganisms and their secreted extracellular polymers accumulate on the surface of the filler, which will form high-water-content, low-density colloidal silt with organic matter in the water body, causing the porosity of the wetland to decrease. Then the wetland will be blocked. When the wetland is blocked, the smooth flow and stability of the internal sewage will be destroyed and water will be stagnant, which will greatly reduce its decontamination effect and bring the risk of periodic exceeding of the effluent standard.

[0004] Regular flushing of fillers can reduce the frequency of wetland blockage, but flushing will inevitably affect the normal operation of the wetland. At the same time, the flushing operation is complicated and the overall cost is high. Regular replacement of fillers can also avoid wetland blockage to a certain extent, but the operation is large in engineering. At the same time, the wetland purification function is lost during the replacement of fillers, and the sewage discharge problem is difficult to solve. Utility Model Content
