Description

Technical Field

[0001] The utility model relates to the technical field of protein separation, in particular to a protein separator. Background Art

[0002] In marine fish farming, due to incomplete mechanical filtration, some residual bait and feces dissolve in the water, forming protein, sugar, and lipid colloids, which consume dissolved oxygen in the water and further decompose to produce toxic compounds such as ammonia nitrogen and nitrite, which must be removed quickly. The protein skimmer, also known as the protein defoamer, is an effective aquaculture water treatment equipment used in aquaculture. It uses the tension adsorption effect of the contact surface between air bubbles and water to make organic matter such as protein, sugar, and lipid colloid in the water adsorb on the surface of the air bubbles, and floats the bubbles to the collection cup by flotation to separate and remove organic matter such as protein, sugar, and lipid colloid in the water. Therefore, the more bubbles are produced and the better the mixing degree of bubbles and water, the better the separation effect. When the protein skimmer is in use, it can only simply control the bubbles to mix and contact with water. Impurities in the water are prone to precipitation and cannot fully contact with the bubbles, resulting in poor protein separation effect.

[0003] Patent CN218620406U proposes a protein separator, which fills the water to be processed into the separation tube through the water inlet pipe, and synchronously inflates the separation tube through the air inlet pipe, and starts the motor to drive the rotating rod to rotate. The rotating rod and the bubble generating component cooperate with each other to break up the large bubbles filled into the separation tube through the air inlet pipe to form a batch of small bubbles, further increasing the contact area between the bubbles and water, and utilizing the tension adsorption effect of the contact surface between the bubbles and water to make organic matter such as protein, sugar, lipid colloid in the water adsorbed on the bubble surface, and the bubbles are floated to the collection cup by flotation to separate and remove organic matter such as protein, sugar, lipid colloid in the water. While processing the organic matter in the water, the stirring component can further mix and stir the organic matter in the water, and the circulating mixing component can transport the sediment in the separation tube to the top of the separation tube.

[0004] The stirring method in the above scheme improves the degree of contact between organic matter and bubbles. In addition, the precipitate is transported to the top of the separation tube through the circulating mixing component. In this process, firstly, the precipitate is mixed in the water and is difficult to be directly sucked to the top. In addition, in the above scheme, there is a lack of measures to collect the precipitate after the precipitate is pumped to the top, which will cause the precipitate to continue to return to the bottom of the separation tube, affecting the effect of removing the precipitate inside the separation tube.
