Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This application is used in the technical field of membrane bioreactors, and particularly relates to an aeration device and a membrane bioreactor. Background Art
[0002] A membrane bioreactor (MBR, Membrane Bio-Reactor) is a new type of sewage treatment technology that organically combines ultrafiltration or microfiltration membrane separation technology with biological treatment technology, and is widely used in municipal and industrial sewage treatment and reuse. During the operation and maintenance of a membrane bioreactor, effective control of membrane fouling can ensure the long-term and efficient operation of the membrane bioreactor. Therefore, the membrane module is usually flushed by means of aeration cleaning to control membrane fouling.
[0003] The traditional MBR aeration form is continuous aeration, that is, perforated pipe aeration is used. However, perforated pipe aeration has high energy consumption, poor membrane cleaning effect, and defects such as the perforated pipe is extremely easy to be blocked by the settled sludge. Even if the perforated pipe is not blocked, because the perforated pipe is provided with small holes of the same specification in sequence on a long pipeline, due to different along-path and local losses, the outflow pressure of each orifice is different, resulting in uneven air output. Therefore, it is difficult to maintain the perforated pipe aeration, and the scale is limited.
[0004] In recent years, the continuous aeration method has gradually been replaced by the intermittent aeration method, but the air output of this aeration method is still uneven. Utility Model Content

[0031] Among them, Figure 3 and Figure 4 give the reference direction coordinate system of the embodiments of this application. The following will describe the embodiments of this application in combination with the directions shown in Figure 3 and Figure 4 shown.
[0032] The embodiments of this application provide an aeration device. Referring to Figures 1 to 4 , it includes an aeration box 100, and an aeration chamber 110 is provided inside the aeration box 100;
[0033] An aeration assembly 200, and the aeration assembly 200 is located in the aeration chamber 110;
[0034] A gas supply assembly 300, a total air inlet channel 310 is provided on the gas supply assembly 300, a first air inlet channel 320 and a second air inlet channel 330 are provided inside the gas supply assembly 300, a gas guiding groove 340 corresponding to the aeration box 100 is provided on the gas supply assembly 300, both the first air inlet channel 320 and the second air inlet channel 330 are communicated with the total air inlet channel 310, one end of the gas guiding groove 340 is communicated with the aeration chamber 110, and the other end is communicated with the first air inlet channel 320 or the second air inlet channel 330.
[0035] The aeration component of the aeration device can achieve aeration. The external air supply equipment enables gas to enter the air supply component 300 through the total air inlet channel 310 of the air supply component 300. The gas entering the total air inlet channel 310 is divided into two parts and enters the first air inlet channel 320 and the second air inlet channel 330, that is, the gas is evenly distributed into the first air inlet channel 320 and the second air inlet channel 330, making the air distribution structure uniform. The air guide groove 340 is correspondingly arranged with the aeration chamber 110, so that the gas in the first air inlet channel 320 or the second air inlet channel 330 enters the aeration chamber 110 through the air guide groove 340, realizing one-to-one air supply. As the gas accumulates in the aeration chamber 110, the gas gradually presses down from the top of the aeration chamber 110 to fill the water level in the aeration chamber 110 and the aeration component 200 until aeration is formed in the aeration component 200. The aeration device avoids uneven air distribution through the two-way air supply structure, can ensure uniform aeration and no air leakage, is applied to the membrane bioreactor, has a good membrane cleaning effect, and ensures the long-term and efficient operation of the membrane bioreactor.
[0036] In some embodiments, the aeration component 200 includes a water sealing box 210 and an air outlet pipe 220. The water sealing box 210 is located in the aeration chamber 110. A first opening 211 is provided at the top of the water sealing box 210. The bottom end of the air outlet pipe 220 extends into the water sealing box 210 through the first opening 211, and the top end of the air outlet pipe 220 extends to the outside of the aeration box 100. In other words, the first opening 211 at the top of the water sealing box 210 is directly opposite to the top position of the aeration chamber 110. The air outlet pipe 220 is vertically inserted into the water sealing box 210 at a predetermined depth, and the top opening of the air outlet pipe 220 penetrates through the body of the aeration box 100. As the gas accumulates in the aeration chamber 110, the gas gradually presses down from the top of the aeration chamber 110 to fill the water level in the aeration chamber 110 and the water sealing box 210 until the bottom opening of the air outlet pipe 220, and the gas is discharged through the top opening of the air outlet pipe 220 through the air outlet pipe 220 to form aeration.
[0037] A plurality of aeration chambers 110 are provided in the aeration box 100, and an aeration component 200 is provided in each aeration chamber 110. Each aeration chamber 110 is communicated with an air guide groove 340. In other words, the aeration component 200 corresponds to the aeration chamber 110 one by one, and the number of air guide grooves 340 corresponds to the number of aeration chambers 110 one by one. The air outlet end of the air guide groove 340 has a groove-shaped outlet, and the gas is supplied to the aeration chamber 110 through the groove-shaped outlet. The groove-shaped outlet has a large area, effectively preventing the perforated pipe from being easily blocked, which may lead to the defect of sludge accumulation. The one-to-one corresponding structure makes each structure not interfere with each other, avoiding the defect that the aeration frequencies of adjacent aeration chambers 110 are inconsistent due to air leakage and mutual interference.
[0038] The air guide grooves 340 are all arranged in parallel, effectively preventing the pressure imbalance caused by the series design, thus avoiding the phenomenon of uneven aeration.
[0039] A second opening is provided at the bottom of the aeration chamber 110. A plurality of partition members 120 are provided in the aeration box 100. The partition members 120 extend from the inner top surface of the aeration box 100 towards the second opening. Partition members 120 are provided between adjacent aeration chambers 110. In other words, the partition members 120 divide the aeration box 100 into several aeration chambers 110. The partition members 120 are partition plates.
[0040] The outer surface and the inner partition plate that form the total intake passage 310 in the air supply assembly 300 are both designed to be streamlined, which is beneficial to reducing the pressure loss of the gas during the flow process.
[0041] In some embodiments, the aeration box 100, the partition members 120 and the air outlet pipe 220 are integrally formed, reducing problems such as structural instability, poor sealing and cumbersome operation caused by the assembly process of the aeration device.
[0042] In some embodiments, an open space 212 is formed between the top of the water sealing box 210 and the inner top surface of the aeration box 100. The gas in the aeration chamber 110 can enter the water sealing box 210 through the open space 212. That is, there is a predetermined distance between the first opening 211 at the top of the water sealing box 210 and the top of the aeration chamber 110 to divert the gas in the aeration chamber 110 into the water sealing box 210. The top of the water sealing box 210 is provided with a first fixing member, and the first fixing member is fixedly connected to the inner top surface of the aeration box 100 to improve the overall stability of the aeration device.
[0043] The bottom of the water sealing box 210 is provided with water permeable holes 213. It can be understood that the lower end of the water sealing box 210 is closed, and only the water permeable holes 213 are provided. The water permeable holes 213 communicate with the aeration chamber 110 and the water sealing box 210 and are used for discharging or supplementing liquid.
[0044] It can be understood that when the water level in the aeration chamber 110 submerges the first opening 211 of the water sealing box 210, the sludge in the sewage can enter the aeration chamber 110 through the first opening 211 and the water permeable holes 213 of the water sealing box 210. And when the water level in the aeration chamber 110 is lower than the first opening 211 of the water sealing box 210 and aeration has not started yet, since the bottom of the water sealing box 210 is provided with water permeable holes 213, the sludge in the sewage can still enter the aeration chamber 110 through the water permeable holes 213. In this way, the sludge is not likely to deposit in the water sealing box 210, thereby preventing the bottom opening of the air outlet pipe 220 from being blocked by the sludge and unable to aerate.
[0045] The top of the aeration box 100 is provided with a gas distribution box 400, that is, the gas distribution box 400 is arranged on the outer top surface of the aeration box 100 above the air outlet 410. The gas distribution box 400 is provided with an air outlet 410. A plurality of gas distribution grooves 420 are arranged in the gas distribution box 400. The plurality of gas distribution grooves 420 are divergently arranged with the air outlet 410 as the center. An air outlet channel 421 is formed between adjacent gas distribution grooves 420. The inner end of the air outlet channel 421 is communicated with the air outlet 410. The outer end of the air outlet channel 421 extends outwards to form a branched air outlet. That is, one end of the gas distribution groove 420 is located at the air outlet 410 in the middle of the gas distribution box 400, and the other end extends towards the outer side wall of the gas distribution box 400 and forms a gas distribution outlet on the outer side wall of the gas distributor. The setting of the gas distribution box 400 can make the aeration more uniform, and the outlet is arranged on the side to avoid the gas directly impacting the membrane filaments.
[0046] In some embodiments, the air supply assembly 300 is arranged at the bottom of the aeration box 100, which can ensure that the gas collection volume of the aeration chamber 110 is used to the maximum limit without wasting space, thereby saving costs. The cross sections of the first air inlet channel 320 and the second air inlet channel 330 gradually decrease along the air outlet direction. The first air inlet channel 320 and the second air inlet channel 330 are arranged in parallel. Such a design is beneficial to ensure the uniformity of gas distribution in the two gas channels (the first air inlet channel 320 and the second air inlet channel 330).
[0047] A membrane bioreactor, characterized in that it includes a reactor body and the aeration device in the above embodiments. The reactor body 500 includes a membrane frame 510 and a filter membrane 520. The filter membrane 520 is located above the aeration box 100 to scrub the filter membrane 520 when the aeration device aerates. The top end of the aeration box 100 is provided with a second fixing member 130. The second fixing member 130 is connected to the membrane frame to make the aeration box 100 firmly connected to the reactor body 500. The fixed end of the air supply assembly 300 is provided with an O-ring to prevent rotation and shock, and is inserted into the second fixing member 130. The outer surface of the air supply assembly 300 tightly fits on the inner surface of the aeration box 100 and is fixed by bolts or bonding or other forms.
[0048] The aeration box 100 adopts the form of integral molding with a small number of bolts, without bonding, with a reliable structure and simple installation.
[0049] The air supply assembly 300 includes a matching upper cover body and a lower cover body, a total air inlet channel 310. The first air inlet channel 320 and the second air inlet channel 330 are formed between the upper cover body and the lower cover body.
