Description

Technical Field

[0001] The present application relates to the technical field of sedimentation tanks, and in particular to a flocculation sedimentation tank for sewage treatment. Background Art

[0002] In the existing sewage treatment process, the flocculation sedimentation tank is a key link, which undertakes the important task of adding flocculants to aggregate tiny particles such as suspended matter and colloids in the sewage into larger flocs, and then achieving solid-liquid separation through gravity sedimentation.

[0003] In existing flocculation sedimentation tanks, when sewage first enters the sedimentation tank, its flow rate and distribution are often uneven, resulting in high sewage concentrations in some areas and relatively low concentrations in others. This unevenness is particularly pronounced after the addition of flocculants, which are typically introduced into the sedimentation tank via spraying or dripping, making it difficult to quickly and evenly mix with all the sewage. Furthermore, due to structural limitations within the sedimentation tank, such as improperly designed or ineffective stirring mechanisms, the flocculants in the sewage have limited contact and collision opportunities with the tiny particles, which in turn affects the sufficiency and efficiency of the flocculation reaction.

[0004] Furthermore, wastewater flowability in traditional sedimentation tanks presents certain issues. Due to the large size and complex structure of these tanks, the flow path within them is long and easily obstructed, causing some wastewater to remain in the tank for an extended period while others may flow out quickly, failing to fully react. This poor flowability not only compromises flocculation but can also lead to unstable treated water quality, making it difficult to meet expected discharge standards.

[0005] In view of the above problems, a flocculation sedimentation tank for sewage treatment is now designed. Utility Model Content

[0006] The embodiment of the present application provides a flocculation sedimentation tank for sewage treatment to solve the problem of uneven mixing of sewage and flocculant due to uneven sewage concentration distribution and uneven sewage flow rate during use of the existing flocculation sedimentation tank in the related art.

[0027] To make the purpose, technical solutions, and advantages of the embodiments of this application more clear, the technical solutions in the embodiments of this application will be clearly and completely described below in conjunction with the drawings in the embodiments of this application. Obviously, the described embodiments are part of the embodiments of this application, not all of the embodiments. Based on the embodiments in this application, all other embodiments obtained by ordinary technicians in this field without making creative efforts are within the scope of protection of this application.

[0028] The embodiment of the present application provides a flocculation sedimentation tank for sewage treatment, which can solve the problem of uneven mixing of sewage and flocculant due to uneven sewage concentration distribution and uneven sewage flow rate during use in existing flocculation sedimentation tanks in the related art.

[0029] See also Figure 1-Figure 3A flocculation sedimentation tank for sewage treatment comprises: two sedimentation tanks 1 arranged in sequence, the two sedimentation tanks 1 being connected by a pipeline, a partition 2 being provided inside the sedimentation tank 1, the partition 2 being provided with a flow port, the partition 2 dividing the sedimentation tank 1 into two sedimentation chambers 3; two sets of stirring mechanisms 4 being provided opposite to each other on the sedimentation tank 1, the stirring mechanisms 4 being arranged above the corresponding sedimentation chambers 3 and mixing the sewage inside the sedimentation chambers 3. The sedimentation tank 1 is also provided with a dosing mechanism 5, the dosing mechanism 5 being used to add flocculant to the interior of the sedimentation chamber 3; the dosing mechanism 5 comprising a supply portion 51 and a supply pipe group 52 provided on the sedimentation tank 1, the supply portion 51 being connected to the supply pipe group 52 for providing flocculant to the supply pipe group 52, a plurality of diversion pipes 53 being provided at the bottom of the supply pipe group 52, the bottom ends of the plurality of diversion pipes 53 respectively extending into the interiors of the four sedimentation chambers 3, and a discharge port 6 being provided on the diversion pipes 53.

[0030] The system consists of two sedimentation tanks 1 arranged in sequence, which are connected by a pipe, so that sewage can pass through two sedimentation chambers 3 in sequence for multi-stage sedimentation treatment, which helps to improve the clarity and removal rate of sewage.

[0031] A partition 2 is provided inside each sedimentation tank 1, and a flow port is provided on the partition 2, which divides the sedimentation tank into two independent sedimentation chambers 3. The existence of the partition limits the direct convection of sewage and promotes the stratification and sedimentation of sewage, while the flow port allows the upper sewage and flocs to pass through when necessary, thereby realizing material exchange between the two chambers.

[0032] A stirring mechanism 4 is positioned above each sedimentation chamber 3. The stirring mechanism thoroughly mixes the sewage and the added flocculant by rotating a stirring rod 42. This mixing action accelerates the contact and collision between suspended matter, colloids, and other tiny particles in the sewage and the flocculant, promoting the flocculation reaction and increasing the floc formation rate and sedimentation efficiency.

[0033] The dosing mechanism 5 consists of a supply part 51 and a supply pipe group 52. The supply part 51 is responsible for storing and providing flocculants. The flocculants enter the supply pipe group 52 through the supply part 51 and are then transported to each sedimentation chamber 3 through the discharge port 6 on the diversion pipe 53.

[0034] Through the double sedimentation tank series design and partition separation technology, sewage can be precipitated and purified over a longer path and for a more sufficient time, thereby improving treatment efficiency.

[0035] Through multi-stage sedimentation and sufficient mixing treatment, pollutants in sewage are removed more thoroughly, and the treated water quality is more stable and reliable, able to meet more stringent environmental protection requirements.

[0036] The setting of the stirring mechanism enables the sewage and flocculant to be fully mixed, accelerates the flocculation reaction, increases the formation speed and sedimentation efficiency of flocs, and helps to remove more suspended matter and colloidal particles.

[0037] The design of the dosing mechanism enables accurate and uniform dosing of flocculants, avoids the problem of over- or under-dosing, improves the flocculation effect and reduces operating costs.

[0038] Specifically, in this embodiment, the two sedimentation tanks 1 are fitted together, and a sewage inlet pipe and a sewage outlet pipe are respectively provided on opposite sides of the two sedimentation tanks 1. The bottom of the sedimentation tank 1 close to the sewage outlet pipe is tilted downward.

[0039] The two sedimentation tanks 1 are structurally fitted together, which not only saves space but also makes the entire treatment system more compact. The fitting design also helps to reduce the gap between the two sedimentation tanks, reducing the risk of leakage or overflow during the sewage treatment process.

[0040] The sewage inlet and outlet pipes are located on opposite sides of the two sedimentation tanks 1. This layout ensures that sewage can smoothly enter the first sedimentation tank 1 for initial treatment and, after a series of reactions and sedimentation, flow through pipes into the second sedimentation tank 1 for further treatment. The sewage outlet pipe is located near the end of the treatment process, facilitating collection and discharge of treated sewage into the system.

[0041] It's worth noting that the bottom of each sedimentation tank 1, near the sewage discharge pipe, features a downwardly sloping design. This tilted bottom structure helps accelerate the aggregation and discharge of settled particles in the sewage. When suspended matter and colloidal particles in the sewage form flocs under the action of the flocculant and settle to the tank bottom, they slide and accumulate along the inclined bottom toward the sewage discharge pipe. This allows these settled particles to be more easily discharged from the system during sludge removal or emptying, maintaining a clean interior and efficient operation.

[0042] Furthermore, a sludge drainage pipe is provided at the bottom of the sedimentation tank 1. The sludge drainage pipe is arranged at one end of the bottom of the sedimentation tank 1 that is inclined downward, and the other end of the sludge drainage pipe is connected to an external sludge extraction mechanism.

[0043] The connection point between the sludge drain pipe and the bottom of the sedimentation tank 1 is usually located at the lowest point to ensure that the sediment can be collected to the maximum extent.

[0044] The other end of the silt removal pipe is connected to an external silt extraction mechanism. This mechanism, which includes a pump, compressor, or other type of suction equipment, is used to extract the sediment from the silt removal pipe and transport it to a subsequent processing or disposal unit. This is prior art and will not be described in detail here.

[0045] In one embodiment, the stirring mechanism 4 includes a fixed frame 41 arranged on the sedimentation tank 1, and a stirring rod 42 rotatably arranged on the fixed frame 41. A driving member 43 is provided on the fixed frame 41, and the driving member 43 is connected to the stirring rod 42 and is used to drive the stirring rod 42 to rotate.

[0046] The driving member 43 includes a reducer and a driving motor. The output shaft of the driving motor is connected to the input shaft of the reducer, and the output shaft of the reducer is connected to the stirring rod 42 .

[0047] When the drive motor starts, it transmits power to the stirring rod 42 through the speed reducer, causing it to begin rotating. As the stirring rod 42 rotates, it continuously mixes the sewage and the added flocculant, forming a uniform mixture. This mixing action promotes contact and collision between suspended matter, colloids, and other tiny particles in the sewage and the flocculant, accelerating the flocculation reaction. Simultaneously, the rotation of the stirring rod helps break up lumps and sediment in the sewage, maintaining its uniformity and fluidity.

[0048] In one embodiment, the supply part 51 includes a storage tank 511 and a pump body 512. A discharge valve is provided at the bottom of the storage tank 511. The feed port of the pump body 512 is connected to the discharge valve, and the discharge port of the pump body 512 is connected to the supply pipe group 52.

[0049] Storage tank 511 is used to store a certain amount of flocculant. Pump 512 is used to transport the flocculant from the tank to supply pipe assembly 52. The pump's inlet is connected to the discharge valve at the bottom of tank 511, allowing it to steadily draw in flocculant. The pump's outlet is connected to supply pipe assembly 52, delivering the flocculant to the desired dosing locations.

[0050] When flocculant needs to be added to the sewage treatment system, the discharge valve at the bottom of the storage tank 511 is first opened to allow the flocculant to flow into the feed port of the pump body 512. The pump body 512 is then started to suck the flocculant from the feed port and deliver it to the supply pipe group 52 through the discharge port.

[0051] In this embodiment, the supply pipe group 52 includes a mounting frame 521 arranged on the sedimentation tank 1, and a hose 522 is provided on the mounting frame 521. One end of the hose 522 is connected to the discharge port of the pump body 512, and the other end of the hose 522 is provided with a horizontally arranged delivery pipe 523; several of the diversion pipes 53 are arranged at the bottom of the delivery pipe 523.

[0052] The mounting frame 521 is a supporting structure for the supply pipe group 52 , which is fixed on the sedimentation tank 1 to provide a stable installation foundation for the subsequent hose 522 and delivery pipe 523 .

[0053] One end of the hose is tightly connected to the discharge port of the pump body 512, ensuring that the flocculant can flow smoothly into the hose; the other end is connected to the delivery pipe 523, guiding the flocculant into the delivery pipe 523. Hose 522 is made of soft, corrosion-resistant material and has a certain degree of flexibility, which can adapt to different installation positions and angles, and also facilitates installation and commissioning.

[0054] The delivery pipe 523 is arranged horizontally below the mounting frame 521 to deliver the flocculant in the hose 522 to each diversion pipe 53. The diversion pipes 53 are arranged at the bottom of the delivery pipe 523 to further distribute the flocculant in the delivery pipe 523 to designated locations of each sedimentation tank.

[0055] A discharge port 6 is provided at the bottom of the diversion pipe 53 for directly injecting flocculant into the sewage to promote the flocculation reaction.
