[0002] Oil pollution to the ecological environment has become a major public hazard to human society. At the same time, with the development of science and technology, the production process of many high-tech industries requires higher and higher precision control of the oil content of the working medium.

The main reason why the high-precision separation of oil and water has become a recognized global problem is the existence of fine oil droplets of emulsified oil.

DETAILED DESCRIPTION

[0031] In order to make the purpose, technical solutions and advantages of the embodiments of the utility model clearer, the technical solutions in the embodiments will be clearly and completely described below in conjunction with the drawings in the embodiments of the utility model. The following embodiments are used to illustrate the utility model but are not used to limit the scope of the utility model.

[0032] like Figure 1 As shown, this embodiment provides an oil-water separation and recovery device, including a vertically arranged tank body 9, wherein the inner cavity of the tank body 9 is provided with a liquid inlet chamber 91 and a separation chamber 92 which are interconnected from top to bottom, the liquid inlet chamber 91 is provided with a raw liquid inlet 1, the top of the liquid inlet chamber 91 is provided with an exhaust port 4, the separation chamber 92 is provided with a recovered water outlet 3, and a separation assembly is provided in the separation chamber 92, the separation assembly includes a coalescer 8 and a separator 7 which are arranged from top to bottom, and the outlet of the separator 7 is connected to the recovered oil outlet 2. In this embodiment, the coalescer 8 and the separator 7 are both columnar or tubular arrays, and the extension direction of the coalescer 8 and the separator 7 is consistent with that of the tank body 9, so as to make full use of the space in the separation chamber 92.

[0033] In a preferred embodiment, the recovery water outlet 3 is disposed near the bottom of the separation chamber 92 to facilitate emptying of the water phase.

[0034] Furthermore, the liquid inlet chamber 91 is connected to the inlet of the coalescer 8, and the rest is isolated by a partition or other components, so that the raw liquid can directly enter the coalescer 8. Preferably, a water distributor 6 is provided between the liquid inlet chamber 91 and the separation chamber 92, and the water outlet of the water distributor 6 is connected to the inlet of the coalescer 8, so that each coalescer 8 can enter an equal amount of raw liquid, the oil-water separation is more uniform, and it is also beneficial to the maintenance of the equipment and prolongs the service life.

[0035] Further, in order to better fix the coalescer 8 and the separator 7, the separation assembly further includes a fixing plate 10, which is arranged between the separator 7 and the coalescer 8, and the bottom end of the coalescer 8 and the top end of the separator 7 are respectively connected and fixed to the fixing plate 10. Preferably, in order to make the structure of the separation assembly more stable and the force uniform, the coalescer 8 and the separator 7 have substantially the same size and are arranged at corresponding positions in the vertical projection direction.

[0036] In a preferred embodiment, an oil collecting chamber 93 is provided below the separation chamber 92, the outlet of the separator 7 is connected to the oil collecting chamber 93, and the recovered oil outlet 2 is provided at the bottom of the oil collecting chamber 93. Generally, the oil content in the original liquid is low, and it is more suitable for industrial application to collect the separated oil phase and discharge it uniformly. Furthermore, the oil collecting chamber 93 can be an independent container provided outside the tank body 9, or it can be provided integrally with the tank body 9, and those skilled in the art can provide it according to the actual situation of the installation site.

[0037] In a preferred embodiment, a drain port 5 is provided near the recovered oil outlet 2 to fully recover the oil phase and facilitate cleaning and maintenance of the equipment.

[0038] The working principle of this embodiment is as follows:

[0039] First, close the valves of the recovered oil outlet 2 and the recovered water outlet 3, open the valve of the exhaust port 4 on the top of the tank body 9, open the valve of the stock liquid inlet 1, and start injecting the stock liquid into the oil-water separation recovery device. When the tank body 9 is filled with the stock liquid, close the valve of the exhaust port 4, open the valves of the recovered oil outlet 2 and the recovered water outlet 3, and adjust the stock liquid inlet speed so that the inlet speed is basically consistent with the outlet speed of the recovered water pipe. Under normal circumstances, the inlet pressure should be greater than the outlet pressure. In this way, the stock liquid will enter the coalescer 8 under the action of gravity and water pressure and flow from the inside to the outside. When the stock liquid passes through the medium of the coalescer 8, the small droplets suspended in the continuous phase will gather together or coalesce, and the large droplets of non-polluting liquid and dispersed phase will flow to the separator 7 located below the coalescer 8, and the flow direction is from the outside to the inside. The medium of the separator 7 is hydrophobic, which can prevent the water phase from entering the separator 7. Only the oil phase fluid flows into the separator 7 and enters the oil collecting chamber 93 from the outlet of the separator 7 to be collected, while the water phase fluid is discharged through the recovery water outlet 3 arranged near the bottom of the separation chamber 92, thereby realizing oil-water separation. The oil and water are discharged and recovered separately by opening the valve.
