[0024] The embodiments of the present invention are described in detail below, and examples of the embodiments are shown in the accompanying drawings. The embodiments described below with reference to the accompanying drawings are exemplary and intended to be used to explain the present invention, but cannot be understood as limiting the present invention.

[0025] like Figure 1 As shown, the semiconductor industry silicon-containing wastewater treatment system of the utility model embodiment includes a raw water pool 1, a security filter 2, a nanofiltration membrane filter 3 and a flushing device 4. The raw water pool 1 contains silicon-containing wastewater. The security filter 2 is connected to the raw water pool 1, and is used to pre-filter the silicon-containing wastewater discharged from the raw water pool 1. The nanofiltration membrane filter 3 is connected to the security filter 2, and is used to filter the silicon-containing wastewater pre-filtered by the security filter 2. The membrane pore size of the nanofiltration membrane filter 3 is 0.1nm-0.6nm, which can filter fine particle pollutants in the wastewater, effectively improving the filtration efficiency. The flushing device 4 is connected to the nanofiltration membrane filter 3, and is used to flush the nanofiltration membrane filter 3.

[0026] The semiconductor industry silicon-containing wastewater treatment system of the embodiment of the utility model first pre-filters larger impurities through the security filter 2, and then filters the fine particle pollutants in the wastewater through the membrane pore size, which effectively improves the removal rate of suspended particulate matter. Moreover, the setting of the flushing device 4 effectively alleviates the blockage of the nanofiltration membrane filter 3 and extends the service life of the nanofiltration membrane filter 3.

[0027] Specifically, the nanofiltration membrane filter 3 has a nanofiltration membrane (not shown), and the nanofiltration membrane has membrane pores (not shown). When the membrane pore diameter is 0.1nm, it can effectively intercept suspended particles in the wastewater, making it difficult for the suspended particles to enter the membrane pores. When the membrane pore diameter is 0.6nm, it can also effectively intercept suspended particles in the wastewater, making it difficult for the suspended particles to enter the membrane pores, and it is also convenient for the water in the water tank 41 to flush the membrane pores.

[0028] In some embodiments, the security filter 2 is a self-cleaning filter used to intercept impurities in the water to remove suspended matter and particulate matter in the water, reduce turbidity, purify water quality, and reduce the generation of system dirt, bacteria, algae, rust, etc.

[0029] In other embodiments, the security filter 2 is a bag filter, which has the advantages of novel structure, small size, simple and flexible operation, energy saving, high efficiency, good airtightness and strong applicability.

[0030] In some embodiments, there are multiple nanofiltration membrane filters 3, and the multiple nanofiltration membrane filters 3 are arranged in parallel with each other, which effectively improves the filtration efficiency of the nanofiltration membrane filters 3.

[0031] In some embodiments, the flushing device 4 includes a water tank 41, a flushing pump 42, a cleaning agent storage tank 43 and a feeding pump 44. The flushing pump 42 is used to pump the flushing water in the water tank 41 into the nanofiltration membrane filter 3 to flush the nanofiltration membrane filter 3. The feeding pump 44 is connected to the cleaning agent storage tank 43 and the water tank 41, and is used to pump the chemicals in the cleaning agent storage tank 43 into the water tank 41, so that the flushing water in the water tank 41 can flush the nanofiltration membrane more cleanly. The flushing device 4 has a simple structure and saves costs.

[0032] In some embodiments, the nanofiltration membrane filter 3 has a first inlet 31, a second inlet 32, a first outlet 33, and a second outlet 34. The first inlet 31 is located on the top surface of the nanofiltration membrane filter 3 and is connected to the security filter 2, so that the silicon-containing wastewater in the security filter 2 flows into the nanofiltration membrane filter 3 from the first inlet 31 to be filtered through the nanofiltration membrane. The second inlet 32 ​​is located on the top surface of the nanofiltration membrane filter 3 and is connected to the flushing pump 42, so that the flushing water in the water tank 41 enters the nanofiltration membrane filter 3 through the second inlet 32 ​​to clean the nanofiltration membrane, thereby improving the cleaning efficiency.

[0033] The first outlet 33 is located at the bottom of the nanofiltration membrane filter 3 and is used to discharge the filtered water. The second outlet 34 is located at the bottom of the nanofiltration membrane filter 3 and is used to discharge the flushing water after flushing.

[0034] In some embodiments, the semiconductor industry silicon-containing wastewater treatment system also includes a first pressure gauge 51 and a second pressure gauge 52. The first pressure gauge 51 is arranged between the nanofiltration membrane filter 3 and the flushing pump 42 to measure the pressure of water pumped into the nanofiltration membrane filter 3 by the backwash pump, and the second pressure gauge 52 is arranged at the second outlet 34 to measure the pressure of water discharged from the nanofiltration membrane filter 3.

[0035] Specifically, when the water pressure detected by the first pressure gauge 51 is larger and the water pressure detected by the second pressure gauge 52 is smaller, it indicates that the nanofiltration membrane is blocked to a greater extent. At this time, the flushing time of the flushing device 4 is extended and the flushing frequency is increased to flush the nanofiltration membrane efficiently and quickly.

[0036] When the water pressures detected by the first pressure gauge 51 and the second pressure gauge 52 are both large, it indicates that the blockage degree of the nanofiltration membrane is small. At this time, the flushing time and flushing frequency of the flushing device 4 can be shortened to reduce water waste during flushing of the nanofiltration membrane.

[0037] The first pressure gauge 51 and the second pressure gauge 52 are used to detect the water pressure at the second inlet 32 ​​and the second outlet 34 to control the cleaning time and frequency of the nanofiltration membrane by the flushing device 4 to improve work efficiency. In addition, the setting of the pressure gauge is also convenient for direct observation by the staff.

[0038] In some embodiments, the semiconductor industry silicon-containing wastewater treatment system also includes a third pressure gauge 53 and a fourth pressure gauge 54. The third pressure gauge 53 is arranged between the security filter 2 and the nanofiltration membrane filter 3 to measure the pressure of water entering the nanofiltration membrane filter 3 from the security filter 2. The fourth pressure gauge 54 is arranged at the first outlet 33 to measure the pressure of water discharged from the nanofiltration membrane filter 3 through the first outlet 33.

[0039] Specifically, when the water pressure detected by the third pressure gauge 53 is relatively large and the water pressure detected by the fourth pressure gauge 54 is relatively small, it indicates that the nanofiltration membrane is blocked to a large extent and the nanofiltration membrane needs to be flushed.

[0040] In some embodiments, the semiconductor industry silicon-containing wastewater treatment system further includes a turbidity meter 6 , which is disposed at the first outlet 33 and is used to measure the turbidity of filtered water discharged from the nanofiltration membrane filter 3 .

[0041] Specifically, the turbidity of the water discharged from the nanofiltration membrane filter 3 is measured by the turbidity meter 6 to determine the cleaning degree of the nanofiltration membrane, thereby adjusting the flushing time and frequency of the nanofiltration membrane by the flushing device 4. The setting of the turbidity meter 6 facilitates direct observation and improves work efficiency.

[0042] In some embodiments, the semiconductor industry silicon-containing wastewater treatment system further includes a flow meter 7 , which is disposed between the nanofiltration membrane filter 3 and the flushing device 4 to measure the flow rate of water pumped into the nanofiltration membrane filter 3 by the backwash pump.

[0043] In some embodiments, a flow meter 7 is provided at each of the first inlet 31 and the first outlet 33 to measure the flow rate of silicon-containing wastewater entering the first inlet 31 from the security filter 2 and the flow rate of filtered water discharged from the first outlet 33 .

[0044] In some embodiments, the semiconductor industry silicon-containing wastewater treatment system further includes a first valve 81, a second valve 82, a third valve 83, and a fourth valve 84. The first valve 81 is disposed between the first inlet 31 and the safety filter 2, and the second valve 82 is disposed between the second inlet 32 ​​and the flushing pump 42. The third valve 83 is disposed at the first outlet 33, and the fourth valve 84 is disposed at the second outlet 34.

[0045] Specifically, when filtering wastewater, the second valve 82 and the fourth valve 84 are closed, the first valve 81 and the third valve 83 are opened, and the wastewater enters the nanofiltration membrane filter 3 from the first inlet 31 for filtration, and the filtered water flows out from the first outlet 33. When flushing the nanofiltration membrane, the first valve 81 and the third valve 83 are closed, the second valve 82 and the fourth valve 84 are opened, and the water in the water tank 41 flushes the second inlet 32 ​​into the nanofiltration membrane filter 3 for flushing, and the flushing water flows out from the second outlet 34. Thus, it is convenient to control the two working modes of the silicon-containing wastewater treatment system in the semiconductor industry.

[0046] In some embodiments, the semiconductor industry silicon-containing wastewater treatment system further includes a water pump 9. The water pump 9 is disposed between the raw water pool 1 and the security filter 2 to pump the wastewater in the raw water pool 1 into the security filter 2, thereby improving the working efficiency of the semiconductor industry silicon-containing wastewater treatment system.
