Description

Technical Field

[0001] The utility model relates to the technical field of water treatment, in particular to a water treatment device based on ultrafiltration membrane filtration. Background Technique

[0002] At present, during the operation of existing conventional water treatment processes (coagulation, sedimentation, filtration processes) or most ultrafiltration membrane technologies, maintenance personnel need to add different doses of flocculants and chemical cleaning agents according to the raw water conditions, and a dosing system needs to be configured. At the same time, a water backwashing system also needs to be set up, and a backwashing pump is set to backwash the ultrafiltration membrane to ensure the filtration effect. Its structure is complex, and installation, production, and transportation are all very inconvenient. However, for remote rural areas, due to the scattered areas and most residents being elderly or children living alone, the operation and management capabilities of local water pipe personnel for water purification facilities are far from meeting the requirements for normal operation of the equipment. Content of the Utility Model

[0003] The utility model provides a water treatment device based on ultrafiltration membrane filtration, aiming to cancel the setting of the water backwashing system and the dosing and cleaning system while ensuring the filtration effect and meeting the cleaning requirements.

[0004] The utility model is realized through the following technical solutions: A water treatment device based on ultrafiltration membrane filtration includes an outer box body, on which there are a water inlet, a water outlet, and a sludge discharge port. Inside the outer box body, there are a membrane box and an air compressor. Inside the membrane box, there is an ultrafiltration membrane module. The membrane box is connected with a water inlet pipe, a water outlet pipe, and a sludge discharge pipe. The inlet and outlet of the ultrafiltration membrane module are respectively connected with the water inlet pipe and the water outlet pipe of the membrane box;

[0005] One end of the water inlet pipe far from the membrane box is connected to the water inlet of the outer box body, one end of the water outlet pipe far from the membrane box is connected to the water outlet of the outer box body, and one end of the sludge discharge pipe far from the membrane box is communicated with the sludge discharge port of the outer box body;

[0006] The air outlet of the air compressor is connected with an air outlet pipe, and one end of the air outlet pipe far from the air compressor is connected to the water inlet pipe of the membrane box;

[0007] A water inlet valve is installed on the water inlet pipe, a water outlet valve is installed on the water outlet pipe, a sludge discharge valve is installed on the sludge discharge pipe, and an air inlet valve is installed on the air outlet pipe.

[0008] Compared with the prior art, the utility model has the following advantages and beneficial effects: In this solution, the raw water enters the membrane box through the water inlet pipe, is filtered by the ultrafiltration membrane module, and then is discharged from the water outlet pipe of the membrane box. In this solution, the membrane box and the air compressor are integrated in the outer box body, so modular production can be formed, which is convenient for water treatment in different places.

[0009] In this solution, while ensuring the filtering effect and meeting the cleaning requirements, the water backwashing system and the chemical cleaning system are eliminated. The air compressor can be used to introduce high-pressure gas into the membrane box to clean the ultrafiltration membrane assembly to prevent clogging of the ultrafiltration membrane. At the same time, this avoids the need to use a backwashing pump and a water inlet pump and the need for water resources for flushing when using backwashing technology in the prior art, thereby reducing the size of the device and the complexity of installation and having lower environmental requirements for use.

[0010] Furthermore, a filter is provided in the outer box body, a raw water inlet pipe is provided on the water inlet of the outer box body, one end of the raw water inlet pipe is connected to the inlet of the filter, and the outlet of the filter is connected to the water inlet pipe of the membrane box.

[0011] Beneficial effect: The setting of the filter in this scheme can perform preliminary filtration on the raw water, avoiding large particle impurities from clogging or damaging the ultrafiltration membrane component, which would affect the filtration effect. This scheme realizes the protection of the ultrafiltration membrane.

[0012] Furthermore, the inlet of the filter is located at the upper part thereof, and the outlet of the filter is located at the lower part thereof.

[0013] Beneficial effects: This solution allows the water inlet pipe, water outlet pipe and mud discharge pipe to be distributed below the membrane box and staggered with the raw water inlet pipe connected to the filter to avoid interference. At the same time, the water outlet pipe, water inlet pipe and mud discharge pipe occupy less space and their position is lower, which is convenient for connection and installation with other devices.

[0014] Furthermore, the bottom of the filter is connected to a sewage pipe, and a valve is provided on the sewage pipe.

[0015] Beneficial effect: In this solution, the sewage pipe connected to the bottom of the filter facilitates the discharge of the sludge generated in the filter.

[0016] Furthermore, the mud discharge pipe on the membrane box is connected to the sewage discharge pipe, and one end of the sewage discharge pipe away from the filter is connected to the mud discharge port of the outer box body.

[0017] Beneficial effect: In this solution, the mud discharge pipe on the membrane box is connected with the sewage discharge pipe and then merged into one pipe for mud discharge, which can reduce the occupied space between the mud discharge pipe and the sewage discharge pipe.

[0018] Furthermore, a dosing machine is also provided in the outer box body, and a dosing pipe is connected between the dosing machine and the water outlet pipe of the membrane box.

[0019] Beneficial effect: The dosing machine in this solution can disinfect the filtered water so that the water quality meets the use requirements.

[0020] Further, a water quality detector is provided inside the outer box body. The sampling pipe of the water quality detector is connected to the water outlet pipe, and samples are taken through the liquid level difference of the ultrafiltration membrane.

[0021] Beneficial effects: The water quality detector in this solution can detect the water after filtration treatment and determine whether the water quality meets the requirements.

[0022] Further, an electric control cabinet is provided inside the outer box body. The electric control cabinet is used to control the start and stop of the water quality detector, the chemical dosing machine, and the air compressor.

[0023] Beneficial effects: In this solution, the electric control cabinet is connected to the electrical equipment in the ultrafiltration unit, which can play an automatic control role and is more automated.

[0024] Further, a photovoltaic power supply and a photovoltaic inverter are also provided inside the outer box body. A photovoltaic panel is provided outside the outer box body, and the photovoltaic panel is connected to the photovoltaic inverter.

[0025] Beneficial effects: In this solution, it can be powered by self-provided power sources such as solar energy, which is suitable for rural areas in remote areas.

[0026] Further, the ultrafiltration membrane module is a superhydrophilic ultrafiltration membrane.

[0027] Beneficial effects: The ultrafiltration membrane in this solution is a superhydrophilic ultrafiltration membrane, which does not require chemical cleaning and water backwashing, only air backwashing is needed. In this way, while the ultrafiltration membrane can be cleaned, the water backwashing system and the chemical dosing cleaning system can be cancelled, and the device is simpler and more convenient to use.
