[0022] In the process of sewage treatment, the secondary sedimentation tank is an important component, which is used to achieve mud-water separation, sludge concentration, return sludge, etc. The effect of its sedimentation treatment directly affects the water quality of the effluent and the concentration of the return sludge. When a large amount of nutrients in the sewage causes algae to overgrow, this not only affects the normal operation of the secondary sedimentation tank, but may also lead to a decrease in the water quality treated by the sewage treatment system. Traditional algae removal methods such as the use of chemical algaecides may cause secondary pollution, increasing the chemical oxygen demand (COD) of the effluent. Therefore, how to remove algae efficiently under the premise of environmental protection and economy without causing secondary pollution to the water is the key to sewage algae removal technology.

The utility model realizes environmentally friendly and efficient removal of algae in sewage, and solves the problem that chemical algae removal will lead to deterioration of water quality.

[0026] Among them, the ultraviolet bands of the aforementioned ultraviolet lamp 201 include 280-320nm and 320-380nm. The UV-A band, i.e., 320-380nm, has strong penetration ability and less loss during the propagation process; the UV-B band, i.e., 280-320nm, has obvious inhibitory and destructive effects on target algae. In addition, the UV-B band can also be set to 315nm, and the UV-A band can also be set to 400nm. The specific selection can be based on the adaptability of the tolerance program of different algae to ultraviolet light in actual experiments, and this embodiment does not make specific restrictions on this.

[0027] In addition, the multiple water inlets and outlets 4 on the barrel body are waist-shaped hole structures; the waist-shaped holes can avoid stress concentration on the barrel body and make the barrel body easily damaged.

[0028] In some embodiments, the aforementioned UV-A band and UV-B band are alternately displayed at a preset frequency. In this embodiment, in consideration of enhancing the damaging effect of ultraviolet light on algae DNA, the UV-A band and UV-B band are alternated, that is, the algae are irradiated with ultraviolet light of different bands at a preset alternating frequency, so that the algae DNA is repeatedly damaged multiple times. The alternating frequency and irradiation time are related to the actual type of algae and can be selected according to actual test results, and this embodiment does not impose specific restrictions on this.

[0029] In some embodiments, the aforementioned lifting mechanism 5 may include a mechanism consisting of a telescopic sleeve, a motor or a cylinder, and a telescopic bracket, and the specific selection can be adaptively selected according to the overall volume of the device and the convenience of use.

[0030] In other embodiments, the device further comprises a lamp stopper 8, which is sleeved with the lamp body of the ultraviolet lamp 201 and overlapped with the inner wall of the barrel.

[0032] In some other embodiments, the device further includes a counterweight block, which is detachably connected to the base 1, or is mounted on the outer wall of the barrel corresponding to the sealed cavity 10. The counterweight block can adjust the distance between the device and the sewage surface or the distance between the device and the underwater algae in the sewage by increasing the weight of the entire device. That is, the utility model takes into account both the algae removal function of the surface algae and the algae removal function of the underwater algae, further improving the practicality of the algae removal device.

[0033] In some embodiments, the device may further include a protective pad 9, which is bonded to the outer wall of the barrel body and avoids the barrel body corresponding to the working chamber 20. The protective pad 9 is used to buffer external forces when the device is working to prevent the device from being damaged by bumps.

[0034] In addition, in some embodiments, the surface layer of the barrel in the device includes an oil film, and the oil film is bonded to the barrel. The oil film can reduce the attachment of impurities in the water to the surface of the barrel, because the attached impurities block the propagation of part of the ultraviolet light, which has an inhibitory effect on the damage of algae DNA.
