Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of water treatment technology, specifically a system for preventing the oxidation of EDI module resin. Background Technology

[0002] All-membrane water treatment technology is a highly efficient industrial water treatment method. It effectively removes pollutants and desalinates water by organically combining three membrane separation technologies: ultrafiltration (UF), multi-media / carbon tank, and reverse osmosis (RO) and electrodeionization (EDI). In recent years, due to its many advantages, such as no need for acid or alkali treatment, simple operation, excellent effluent quality, and stable performance, the all-membrane method has been widely used in power plants, chemical plants, and other fields.

[0003] Currently, the combination of two-stage reverse osmosis and electro-deionization (EDI) has become the most mature demineralized water treatment process. However, in actual operation, this process still has some problems, mainly concentrated in the EDI stage, such as oxidation and dry burning. These problems are often related to the ion exchange resin inside the EDI. Ion exchange resin is a polymer compound with functional groups and a network structure, usually existing in the form of spherical particles. These functional groups are chemically grafted onto the resin, thus exhibiting a certain degree of instability. When the redox potential (ORP) of the primary RO feed water or the residual chlorine of the EDI feed water exceeds 0.02 ppm, these functional groups are prone to detachment, leading to resin breakage. Resin breakage can clog the EDI channels, causing a sharp increase in feed water pressure and a decrease in permeate flow rate.

[0004] To prevent the oxidation of EDI resin, a common practice is to add a reducing agent (such as sodium bisulfite) to the primary RO feed water to control the ORP of the primary RO feed water to less than 200 mV. However, while this measure is simple, it cannot completely eliminate the oxidation problem of EDI.

[0005] Therefore, based on the above-mentioned technical problems, it is necessary for those skilled in the art to develop a system to prevent the oxidation of EDI module resin. Utility Model Content

[0006] The purpose of this invention is to provide a system for preventing the oxidation of resin in EDI modules, thereby solving the problems mentioned in the background art.

[0007] To achieve the above objectives, this utility model provides the following technical solution:

[0008] A system technical solution for preventing EDI module resin oxidation includes a raw water tank. The outlet of the raw water tank is sequentially connected to a quartz sand filter, an activated carbon filter, and a security filter via pipes. The outlet of the security filter is connected to a high-pressure pump via a pipe. The output of the high-pressure pump is connected to a first-stage reverse osmosis (RO) module via a pipe. The output of the first-stage RO module is connected to a first-stage RO permeate tank via a pipe. An inlet electric valve is installed on the pipe. A first-stage reflux pipe is installed at the front end of the inlet electric valve. The first-stage reflux pipe is connected to the raw water tank and is equipped with a return electric valve.

[0009] As a preferred technical solution, dosing equipment is connected to both the inlet and outlet pipes of the security filter.

[0010] As a preferred technical solution, the outlet of the primary RO permeate tank is connected to a security filter via a pipeline, and a dosing device is connected to the pipeline.

[0011] As a preferred technical solution, the outlet of the security filter is connected to a secondary reverse osmosis component via a pipe, the secondary reverse osmosis component is connected to a secondary RO permeate tank via a pipe, the outlet of the secondary RO permeate tank is connected to a discharge pipe, and the discharge pipe is connected to an EDI module.

[0012] As a preferred technical solution, a residual chlorine meter is connected to the discharge pipe, a pretreatment electric valve is installed on the side adjacent to the residual chlorine meter, the pretreatment electric valve is connected to a pretreatment water tank through a pipe, and an EDI concentrate return pipe is connected to the EDI module.

[0013] As a preferred technical solution, the raw water tank is equipped with a raw water inlet pipe, a secondary RO concentrate return interface, and an EDI concentrate return interface.

[0014] As a preferred technical solution, the EDI concentrate return pipe is connected to the EDI concentrate return interface, and a secondary return pipe is provided at the bottom of the secondary reverse osmosis component, which is connected to the secondary RO concentrate return interface.

[0015] As a preferred technical solution, the EDI module is connected to an ultrapure water tank via a pipeline, and the output end of the ultrapure water tank is connected to an ultrapure water pump via a pipeline.

[0016] As a preferred technical solution, the bottom of the raw water tank, quartz sand filter, activated carbon filter, primary reverse osmosis component, primary RO permeate tank, and secondary RO permeate tank are all equipped with drain valves.

[0017] As a preferred technical solution, a high-pressure pump is installed on the inlet pipe of the secondary reverse osmosis component.

[0018] A return pipe is added to the inlet pipe of the primary RO permeate tank. The return water electric valve on the return pipe is interlocked with the ORP (Ore Flow Rate). When the ORP in the primary RO permeate tank exceeds 200, the return water electric valve in the loop automatically opens, and the inlet electric valve closes, effectively preventing substandard water from entering the next stage RO permeate tank and thus preventing it from entering the EDI (Electronic Diffusion Identification) system. When the ORP is less than 200mV, the inlet electric valve opens, and the return water electric valve closes, enabling automatic opening and closing.

[0019] A residual chlorine meter and an EDI concentrate return pipe are added to the EDI module inlet. When the residual chlorine in the EDI inlet exceeds 0.02 ppm, the pretreatment electric valve opens, discharging the water to the pretreatment tank, and the EDI module inlet valve automatically closes, effectively preventing substandard water from directly entering the EDI system. When the residual chlorine in the EDI inlet is less than 0.02 ppm, the EDI inlet valve opens, and the return valve closes, enabling automatic start and stop. These two stages of water return effectively prevent substandard water from entering the EDI system and causing oxidation of the EDI resin.

[0025] The features and exemplary embodiments of various aspects of this utility model will now be described in detail. To make the objectives, technical solutions, and advantages of this utility model clearer, the following description, in conjunction with the accompanying drawings and specific embodiments, will provide a further detailed description. For those skilled in the art, this utility model can be implemented without some of these specific details. The following description of the embodiments is merely intended to provide a better understanding of this utility model by illustrating examples.

[0026] like Figure 1 , Figure 2 As shown, this utility model provides a system technical solution for preventing the oxidation of EDI module resin: it includes a raw water tank 1, which serves as the starting point. Its outlet is connected sequentially to a quartz sand filter 21, an activated carbon filter 22, and a security filter 23 via pipes. The outlet of the security filter 23 is connected to a high-pressure pump 4 via a pipe, and the output of the high-pressure pump 4 is further connected to a first-stage reverse osmosis module 51. The output of the first-stage reverse osmosis module 51 is connected to a first-stage RO permeate tank 6 via a pipe, which is equipped with an inlet electric valve 61. A first-stage return pipe 62 is installed at the front end of the inlet electric valve 61, which is connected to the raw water tank 1, and a return electric valve 63 is installed on the first-stage return pipe 62.

[0027] Both the inlet and outlet pipes of the security filter 23 are equipped with dosing devices 3. The outlet of the primary RO permeate tank 6 is connected back to the security filter 23 via a pipe, and a dosing device 3 is also installed on this pipe. The outlet of the security filter 23 is then connected to the secondary reverse osmosis module 52 via a pipe, and a high-pressure pump 4 is installed on the inlet pipe of the secondary reverse osmosis module 52. The secondary reverse osmosis module 52 is then connected to the secondary RO permeate tank 7 via a pipe.

[0028] The outlet of the secondary RO permeate tank 7 is connected to a discharge pipe 71, which is connected to the EDI module 8. A residual chlorine meter 81 is installed on the discharge pipe 71, and a pretreatment electric valve 82 is installed on the adjacent side of the residual chlorine meter 81. The pretreatment electric valve 82 is connected to the pretreatment tank 83 via a pipe. In addition, the EDI module 8 is also equipped with an EDI concentrate return pipe 84.

[0029] The raw water tank 1 is equipped with a raw water inlet pipe 11, a secondary RO concentrate return interface 12, and an EDI concentrate return interface 13. The EDI concentrate return pipe 84 is connected to the EDI concentrate return interface 13. A secondary return pipe 53 is located at the bottom of the secondary reverse osmosis module 52, and this secondary return pipe 53 is connected to the secondary RO concentrate return interface 12.

[0030] Finally, the EDI module 8 is connected to the ultrapure water tank 9 via a pipeline, and the output end of the ultrapure water tank 9 is connected to the ultrapure water pump 91 via a pipeline. At the same time, the bottom of the raw water tank 1, the quartz sand filter 21, the activated carbon filter 22, the first-stage reverse osmosis component 51, the first-stage RO product water tank 6, and the second-stage RO product water tank 7 are all equipped with drain valves 24.

[0031] According to the above scheme, in this embodiment, during use, raw water enters the raw water tank 1 through the quartz sand filter 21, activated carbon filter 22, and security filter 23 for preliminary filtration. Then, it is pressurized by the high-pressure pump 4 and enters the first-stage reverse osmosis module 51. The water after first-stage reverse osmosis treatment enters the first-stage RO permeate tank 6. If the water quality in the first-stage RO permeate tank 6 is substandard, the return water electric valve 63 is opened and the inlet water electric valve 61 is closed. The substandard water flows back to the raw water tank 1 through the first-stage return pipe 62, achieving the return treatment of substandard first-stage RO permeate water. If the water quality in the first-stage RO permeate tank 6 is qualified, the inlet water electric valve 61 is opened and the return water electric valve 63 is closed. The first-stage RO permeate enters the security filter 23, undergoes further filtration, and then enters the second-stage reverse osmosis module 52. The water after second-stage reverse osmosis treatment enters the second-stage RO permeate tank 7. If the water quality in the secondary RO permeate tank 7 is substandard, the valve on the secondary return pipe 53 is opened, and the substandard water flows back to the raw water tank 1 through the secondary return pipe 53, thus achieving the return treatment of substandard water from the secondary RO permeate. If the water quality in the secondary RO permeate tank 7 is up to standard, it enters the EDI module 8 for further treatment. A residual chlorine meter 81 is installed at the inlet of the EDI module 8. When the residual chlorine in the EDI influent exceeds 0.02 ppm, the pretreatment electric valve 82 opens, discharging the substandard water to the pretreatment tank 83, while simultaneously closing the inlet valve of the EDI module 8 to prevent substandard water from directly entering the EDI module 8. When the residual chlorine in the EDI influent is less than 0.02 ppm, the pretreatment electric valve 82 closes, and the inlet valve of the EDI module 8 opens, allowing the substandard water to flow back to the raw water tank 1 through the EDI concentrate return pipe 84, thus achieving the return treatment of substandard water from the EDI influent. Finally, the ultrapure water processed by EDI module 8 enters ultrapure water tank 9 and is supplied to users by ultrapure water pump 91.

[0032] This system for preventing EDI module resin oxidation achieves automatic reflux treatment of substandard water by setting up a primary reflux pipe 62 and an EDI concentrate reflux pipe 84, thus preventing substandard water from entering the EDI module 8 and effectively preventing EDI resin oxidation. Simultaneously, the system further improves the stability and reliability of the system by adding a residual chlorine meter 81 and a pretreatment electric valve 82, enabling automatic monitoring and treatment of residual chlorine in the EDI influent. In addition, the system has advantages such as simple structure, convenient operation, and high degree of automation, effectively improving industrial water treatment efficiency and quality, reducing operating and maintenance costs, and has broad application prospects and market demand.
