Description

Technical Field

[0001] The utility model relates to the technical field of sewage treatment, and particularly relates to an air-lift sand suction device. Background Art

[0002] A denitrifying deep bed filter is a filter that organically combines the functions of denitrification and deep bed filtration. During the operation of the denitrifying deep bed filter, the filter needs to be backwashed to discharge the intercepted and generated solids. The backwashing process usually requires three stages: air washing, air-water combined backwashing, and water washing or rinsing. During the air-water combined backwashing and water washing or rinsing stages, some filter sands will flow into the wastewater tank together with the backwashing water, and due to the loosening of the bottom filter bricks, a large amount of filter sands will accumulate in the clear water tank along with the filter effluent.

[0003] In the prior art, it is necessary to empty the wastewater tank and the clear water tank for manual cleaning, which has the following disadvantages:

[0004] 1. When manually cleaning, when personnel enter the wastewater tank to clean the accumulated filter sands, since it is a limited space operation and the pollutants washed out are likely to generate gases such as hydrogen sulfide and ammonia, there is a risk of poisoning the personnel.

[0005] 2. When using a water pump to suck sand, first, the filter sand colliding with the water pump is likely to cause wear of the water pump impeller. Second, when sucking sand, the filter sand discharged with the suction water pump is likely to block the drain pipe, and the sand suction efficiency is not high.

[0005]

[0006] 3. When cleaning, the denitrifying deep bed filter needs to stop operating, but in the actual operation of the water plant, it is difficult to have the condition of shutting down and emptying for a long time to clean the filter sands.

[0006] Summary of the Invention

[0007] Aiming at the deficiencies of the prior art, the utility model provides an air-lift sand suction device to meet the requirement of cleaning and extracting the accumulated filter sands in the wastewater tank and the clear water tank under the condition of normal operation of the denitrifying deep bed filter, reducing the impact on the normal operation of the denitrifying deep bed filter and the poisoning hazard to the operators during the cleaning process, and solving the problem of low sand suction efficiency.

[0008] To achieve the above object, the utility model designs an air-lift sand suction device, which includes one or more sewage tanks, a filter tank and an air compressor; a sand discharge pipe is arranged in each sewage tank, one end of the sand discharge pipe is arranged in the bottom area of the sewage tank, and the other end is communicated to the filter tank, the air outlet of the air compressor is communicated with a main air outlet pipe, and an air outlet branch pipe extending into the sewage tank is communicated with the main air outlet pipe; through holes are arranged on the outer wall of the sand discharge pipe, and the air outlet branch pipe passes through the through holes and extends into the bottom area inside the sand discharge pipe. After the air compressor blows air, the air flow enters the bottom area inside the sand discharge pipe through the main air outlet pipe and the air outlet branch pipe, so that a density difference is formed between the internal and external mixed liquids of the sand discharge pipe. The sand discharge pipe is inserted into the water, and the water pressure is relatively high. The air flow will enter the sand discharge pipe and be discharged upward. At the same time, the compressed air and the sand-water mixed liquid rise in the sand discharge pipe to form a negative pressure, and a relatively large suction force is formed at the bottom of the sand discharge pipe to drive the inorganic sediment to be discharged through the sand discharge pipe to the filter tank.

[0009] Preferably, the distance between the through hole and the sand inlet of the sand discharge pipe is 30 cm, and the diameter of the through hole is 10 mm.

[0010] Preferably, the sand discharge pipe is composed of a combination of a hard pipe and a flexible pipe connected. The hard pipe is arranged in the sewage tank, and the flexible pipe is communicated to the filter tank.

[0011] Preferably, the diameters of both the hard pipe and the flexible pipe are 60 mm.

[0012] Preferably, the hard pipe is made of PVC material, and the flexible pipe is a corrugated hose made of PE material.

[0013] Preferably, the hard pipe and the flexible pipe are connected by a flange.

[0014] Preferably, there are two sewage tanks. The two sewage tanks are respectively a filter tank clear water tank and a filter tank wastewater tank.

[0015] Preferably, a plurality of cable ties are evenly spaced on the outer wall of the hard pipe, and the cable ties are used to fix the air outlet branch pipe on the outer wall of the hard pipe.

[0016] Preferably, a pressure regulating valve is arranged on the main air outlet pipe.

[0017] Preferably, an air storage tank is arranged on the main air outlet pipe.

[0018] Preferably, the air outlet branch pipe and the sand inlet of the through hole are inclined.

[0019] Preferably, the diameter of the through hole is the same as the diameter of the air outlet branch pipe.

[0020] The beneficial effects of the utility model:

[0021] 1. The structure of the utility model is simple, easy to operate, and has a relatively high sand removal efficiency. It is convenient to regularly clean the filter sand at the bottom of the filter wastewater tank and the filter clear water tank, reducing the wear of the impeller caused by the sand pumping of the water pump, avoiding affecting the operation of the subsequent treatment unit, and improving the effluent quality.

[0022] 2. The utility model does not require manual force. Only need to manually turn on the air compressor and adjust the air volume through the regulating valve to control the sand discharge amount, saving human resources and labor costs, and avoiding the danger of poisoning and asphyxiation when manually cleaning the filter sand in the filter wastewater tank.

[0023] 3. The utility model can be used under the normal operation state of the denitrification filter, without stopping production and emptying to clean the filter sand, avoiding a series of economic losses caused by the long-term shutdown of the sewage treatment plant.
