DETAILED DESCRIPTION

[0018] The technical solution of the utility model is further explained below with reference to the accompanying drawings and through specific implementation methods.

[0019] A low-energy rural sewage treatment device of this embodiment includes a solar photovoltaic panel, a storage battery, a sewage treatment device and a sensor assembly, wherein the solar panel is electrically connected to the storage battery, the sewage treatment device includes a first-stage downflow biological filtration unit, a second-stage upflow aeration filtration unit and a third-stage downflow biological filtration unit which are connected in sequence, the storage battery is electrically connected to the first-stage downflow biological filtration unit, the second-stage upflow aeration filtration unit, the third-stage downflow biological filtration unit and the sensor assembly respectively, and the sensor assembly is arranged in the first-stage downflow biological filtration unit and the third-stage downflow biological filtration unit respectively. This embodiment forms a sewage treatment device by arranging a first-stage downflow biological filtration unit, a second-stage upflow aeration filtration unit and a third-stage downflow biological filtration unit, and utilizes the fixed specificity of the bacterial species in each biological filtration unit to form a stable biofilm on the filter material in each biological filtration unit to adapt to the environmental conditions of each biological filtration unit, improve the sewage treatment efficiency, and compared with the common biofilm sewage treatment process in the prior art, this method has lower operating energy consumption. In addition, this embodiment is also provided with solar photovoltaic panels and batteries. The batteries are used to store the electric energy converted by the solar photovoltaic panels. Thus, the solar photovoltaic panels are used to provide auxiliary power to the sewage treatment equipment, further reducing the energy consumption of sewage treatment.

[0020] Preferably, it also includes an ACDC power supply and a power controller, the ACDC power supply and the battery are both electrically connected to the power controller, and the power controller is respectively connected to the first-stage downflow biofiltration unit, the second-stage upflow aeration filtration unit, and the third-stage downflow biofiltration unit. By setting the power controller, when the voltage of the battery is greater than the set value, the battery directly supplies power to the sewage treatment equipment, and when the voltage of the battery is less than the set value, the power controller switches to the ACDC power supply for power supply, so that when the solar photovoltaic panel cannot generate enough electricity, it switches to the ACDC power supply for power supply to maintain the normal operation of the device, so that the device can reduce dependence on non-renewable energy while operating continuously, thereby further achieving low energy consumption.

[0021] Preferably, the first-stage downflow biological filtration unit comprises an inlet pipe 5, a sewage lifting pump 6 and a first biofilm filter 1, wherein the input end of the first biofilm filter 1 is provided with an inlet pipe 5, and the inlet pipe 5 is connected to the sewage lifting pump 6; the second-stage upflow aeration filtration unit comprises a second biofilm filter 2, an aeration pipe 4 and an aeration blower 7, one end of the aeration pipe 4 is connected to the aeration blower 7, and the other end of the aeration pipe 4 extends to the bottom of the second biofilm filter 2; the third-stage downflow biological filtration unit comprises a third biofilm filter 3 and an outlet pipe 13, and the outlet pipe 13 is arranged at the third biofilm filter 3. The output end of the membrane filter 3; the output end of the first biomembrane filter 1 is connected to the input end of the second biomembrane filter 2, the output end of the second biomembrane filter 2 is connected to the input end of the third biomembrane filter 3, the water flow direction of the first biomembrane filter 1 and the third biomembrane filter 3 is from top to bottom, and the water flow direction of the second biomembrane filter 2 is from bottom to top; the first biomembrane filter 1, the second biomembrane filter 2 and the third biomembrane filter 3 are all filled with floating filter materials 8, and the first biomembrane filter 1, the second biomembrane filter 2 and the third biomembrane filter 3 are all tower biofilters.

[0022] The first biofilm filter 1, the second biofilm filter 2 and the third biofilm filter 3 arranged in this embodiment all adopt tower-type biofilters, thereby utilizing the fixed specificity of the bacterial species in each filter to form a stable biofilm on the filter material in each filter to adapt to the environmental conditions of each filter and improve the sewage treatment efficiency; the use of tower-type biofilters also makes the overall structure of the device more compact and reduces the overall footprint; the use of tower-type biofilters can also optimize the layout of the aeration pipe 4 and reduce aeration energy consumption; by arranging the water inlet pipe 5 connected to the sewage lifting pump 6 for introducing sewage, and arranging the aeration pipe 4 connected to the aeration blower 7, the second biofilm filter 2 is in an aerobic state, thereby the operation of the sewage treatment pump and the aeration blower 7 enables the integrated device of this embodiment to realize automatic treatment of rural sewage without manual supervision, which greatly reduces labor costs and operating difficulty.

[0023] The water flow direction of the first biofilm filter 1 is from top to bottom, and it is used for pre-filtering and pre-treatment of sewage, denitrification, denitrification and dephosphorization, and removal of organic matter. The floating filter material 8 in the first biofilm filter 1 has a high removal rate of suspended solids, and the pre-treatment effect is reliable; the organic matter in the sewage is fully utilized as a carbon source, which promotes the growth of heterotrophic bacteria and reduces the amount of sludge discharged from the filter; the denitrifying biofilm grows well under anoxic conditions, achieving efficient denitrification of sewage; at the same time, heterotrophic bacteria can also effectively absorb phosphorus; the floating ceramsite used has a density similar to that of water, which is easy to flush and fluidize, avoiding the problem of filter material compaction.

[0024] The water flow direction of the second biofilm filter 2 is from bottom to top, which is used to nitrify ammonia nitrogen in sewage. The use of floating ceramsite as floating filter material 8 improves oxygen utilization and reduces aeration energy consumption. The end of the aeration pipe 4 extends to the bottom of the second biofilm filter 2 so that the flow direction of oxygen and sewage is the same, so that the floating ceramsite has good self-cleaning conditions and the biofilm is updated quickly. Under low BOD5 conditions, the nitrification efficiency is high, which is conducive to the growth of nitrifying bacteria. The second biofilm filter 2 also uses special floating ceramsite, which has a small filtration head loss and further improves the filtration efficiency.

[0025] The third-stage downflow water flow direction of the third biofilm filter 3 is from bottom to top, which is used to filter suspended particles and deeply remove phosphorus and nitrogen. By further removing suspended particles, the effluent water quality is stabilized to meet the standard; if it is necessary to further remove total phosphorus and total nitrogen to improve the discharge standard, it is only necessary to add a flocculant mechanism and a carbon source delivery mechanism to deliver flocculants and carbon sources to the output end of the second biofilm filter 2 to achieve the removal of total phosphorus and total nitrogen.

[0026] The sensor assembly includes a DO sensor, a liquid level sensor and a pH sensor. The first biofilm filter 1 is provided with a pH sensor, and the third biofilm filter 3 is provided with a DO sensor and a liquid level sensor. The DO sensor is used to monitor the dissolved oxygen in the filter, and is linked with the fan to control the start and stop of the fan by the level of dissolved oxygen to reduce energy consumption. The liquid level sensor is used to monitor the liquid level in the biofilm filter, and is linked with the reflux pump to control the start and stop of the reflux pump by the level of liquid to reduce energy consumption. The pH sensor is used to monitor the pH value of each biofilm filter.

[0027] Preferably, the sewage treatment equipment also includes an inlet pool 9 and a grid filter structure 10. The inlet pool 9 is arranged above the first biofilm filter 1. The inlet pool 9 is connected to the input end of the first biofilm filter 1. The grid filter structure 10 is horizontally arranged in the inlet pool 9, and the inlet pipe 5 is located above the grid filter structure 10. By arranging the inlet pool 9 above the first biofilm filter 1, the sewage can be temporarily stored and regulated in the inlet pool 9 before entering the first biofilm filter 1, so as to stabilize the flow rate of the sewage entering and ensure the efficient operation of the sewage treatment process. The grid filter structure 10 is arranged in the inlet pool 9, so that the sewage first passes through the interception of the grid filter structure 10 and then enters the first biofilm filter 1, effectively removing larger suspended matter and impurities in the sewage, preventing impurities from clogging and damaging the biofilm filter, and the self-cleaning of the grid filter structure 10 can be maintained when the treated sewage in the first biofilm filter 1 is backwashed.

[0028] Furthermore, the sewage treatment equipment also includes a first water distribution structure 11 and a second water distribution structure 12. The first water distribution structure 11 is arranged at the bottom of the first biofilm filter 1 and the second biofilm filter 2, and the first water distribution structure 11 is respectively connected to the first biofilm filter 1 and the second biofilm filter 2. The second water distribution structure 12 is arranged at the bottom of the third biofilm filter 3, and the second water distribution filter is respectively connected to the third biofilm filter and the outlet pipe 13. Thus, by setting the first water distribution structure 11 and the second water distribution structure 12, the output end of the first biofilm filter 1 is connected to the input end of the second biofilm filter 2, and the output end of the third biofilm filter 3 is connected to the outlet pipe 13.

[0029] Furthermore, the sewage treatment equipment also includes a third water distribution structure 14 and a return water pipe 15. The third water distribution structure 14 is arranged above the second biofilm filter 2. The third water distribution structure 14 is respectively connected to the second biofilm filter 2, the third biofilm filter 3 and one end of the return water pipe 15. The other end of the return water pipe 15 is connected to the water inlet pool 9. There is a height difference between the top of the second biofilm filter 2 and the top of the third biofilm filter 3. Thus, by setting the third water distribution structure 14, the output end of the second biofilm filter 2 is connected to the input end of the third biofilm filter 3. The return water pipe 15 is set to connect the input end of the second biofilm filter 2 with the water inlet pool 9. When the water inlet flow rate of the second biofilm filter 2 is greater than the water outlet flow rate, the overflowed sewage enters the water inlet pool 9 again through the return water pipe 15, which plays a buffering role and ensures the stability of the device operation. By setting the top of the second biofilm filter 2 higher than the top of the third biofilm filter 3, there is a height difference between the top of the second biofilm filter 2 and the top of the third biofilm filter 3, thereby utilizing the effect of gravity to ensure that the water flow direction of the third biofilm filter 3 is from top to bottom. The first water distribution structure 11, the second water distribution structure 12 and the third water distribution structure 14 can all use water distributors or water distribution tanks.

[0030] The technical principle of the present invention is described above in combination with specific embodiments. These descriptions are only for explaining the principle of the present invention and cannot be interpreted as limiting the protection scope of the present invention in any way. Based on the explanations here, technicians in this field can think of other specific implementation methods of the present invention without creative work, and these methods will fall within the protection scope of the present invention.
