Description

Technical Field

[0001] The utility model relates to the technical field of sewage treatment, in particular to a device suitable for recycling reclaimed water containing hard and silicon-containing wastewater. Background Art

[0002] Industrial production generates a large amount of wastewater. Generally, this wastewater cannot be discharged directly. It must undergo biochemical, physicochemical, and other treatments to meet national or local discharge standards before it can be discharged. However, even after treatment, the wastewater still pollutes the aquatic environment. Furthermore, companies must purchase additional water for their needs, resulting in a waste of water resources. Reclaimed water reuse systems can help reduce wastewater discharge, and the continued use of recycled water in production processes can save water resources for companies.

[0003] Currently, recycled water reuse mostly uses recycled sewage as the water source, and sometimes other production wastewater is also mixed in. The mixed sewage has the characteristics of high salt content, high hardness, and silicon content. Generally, the recycled water reuse technology adopts a double membrane method, that is, ultrafiltration + reverse osmosis technology. However, the hardness, silicon, organic matter, etc. in the mixed sewage will cause the membrane surface to be blocked by dirt and affect the water flux, affecting the normal operation of the recycled water reuse ultrafiltration membrane and reverse osmosis membrane equipment.

[0004] The most common hardness removal process currently uses lime softening. Although lime is inexpensive and widely available, it is only suitable for raw water with high carbonate hardness. For raw water with low carbonate hardness, the lime-soda method is used instead. However, these methods are ineffective in removing silicon and produce a large amount of sludge, which increases the load on the sludge treatment system. The use of lime requires a complete lime dosing system to convert quicklime into lime milk. This system includes a lime silo, feeder, cavitation vibration device, air storage tank, safety valve, dust collector, screw propeller, mixing tank, storage tank, dosing pump, automatic valves, and control instrumentation. The system is complex and occupies a large area.

[0005] Organic matter removal is typically achieved through biochemical methods, but the circulating wastewater itself does not contain high levels of COD and is not biodegradable, making biochemical methods unsuitable. If a membrane bioreactor were used, the wastewater's high salt content, hardness, and alkalinity would cause severe scaling within the reactor, making it unusable in severe cases.

[0006] Since the existing technology has no targeted removal method for hardness, silicon, COD, etc. in raw sewage, the recovery rate of ultrafiltration and reverse osmosis cannot be very high, resulting in a lower recycling water recovery rate and excessive external water discharge.

[0007] Therefore, a reclaimed water reuse device suitable for hard and silicon-containing wastewater is proposed, which can remove hardness and silicon, reduce COD, and ensure the long-term stable operation of the double membrane (ultrafiltration + reverse osmosis) system. Utility Model Content

DETAILED DESCRIPTION

[0043] The technical solutions in the embodiments of the present invention will be described clearly and completely below in conjunction with the drawings in the embodiments of the present invention. Obviously, the described embodiments are only part of the embodiments of the present invention, rather than all the embodiments.

[0044] like Figure 1 As shown, the utility model provides a reclaimed water reuse device suitable for hard and silicon-containing wastewater, which is used to reduce the hardness, silicon and organic matter content in mixed wastewater, including a softening and silicon removal unit 1, a COD removal unit 2, a desalination unit 3, a dosing unit 4 and a chemical cleaning unit 5.

Softening and silicon removal unit 1 includes a softening reaction tank 1-1, a silicon removal reaction tank 1-2, a coagulation tank 1-3, a flocculation tank 1-4, a high-efficiency sedimentation tank 1-5, and a neutralization tank 1-6, which are connected in sequence. The mixed sewage is connected to the inlet of softening reaction tank 1-1. Alkali and softening agent are added to softening reaction tank 1-1 to adjust the pH value of the influent to alkaline and to reduce the hardness of the water. Silicon removal reaction tank 1-2 is added with a silicon removal agent to reduce the silicon content in the water. Coagulant is added to coagulation tank 1-3 to precipitate the mixed sewage into small flocs. Flocculant is added to flocculation tank 1-4 to transform small flocs into large flocs. Acid is added to neutralization tank 1-6 to adjust the pH value of the effluent.

Combined with high-efficiency precipitation or high-density precipitation technology, it effectively reduces the hardness and silicon content of raw water. The whole set of facilities has a compact structure and stable operation.

[0047] COD Removal Unit 2 utilizes a multi-media filter and activated carbon adsorption technology to filter and adsorb mixed wastewater. It comprises a multi-media filter 2-1, an activated carbon adsorber 2-2, an intermediate water tank 2-3, and a backwash pump, all connected in sequence. COD Removal Unit 2 further reduces the organic matter content in the raw water. The activated carbon adsorption technology provides effective adsorption and operates fully automatically.

[0048] The neutralization tank 1-6 is connected to the multi-media filter 2-1 through the neutralization water pump 6. The multi-media filter 2-1 is filled with anthracite and various graded quartz sand filter materials for filtering suspended matter in the sewage; the activated carbon adsorber 2-2 is equipped with an automatic valve to automatically control the water production and backwashing process of the activated carbon adsorber 2-2. The activated carbon adsorber 2-2 is filled with coconut shell activated carbon filter material for adsorbing organic matter in the sewage; an oxidant is added to the intermediate water tank 2-3 to control microbial contamination and store transitional effluent.

[0049] The backwash pump inlet is connected to the intermediate water tank 2-3, and the backwash pump outlet is connected to the multi-media filter 2-1 and the activated carbon adsorber 2-2. The backwash pump draws water from the intermediate water tank 2-3 and connects it to the multi-media filter 2-1 and the activated carbon adsorber 2-2. A large flow of backwash water enters the bottom of the multi-media filter and the activated carbon adsorber and is discharged from the top, backwashing and removing suspended solids trapped in the filter media. The multi-media filter is equipped with an automatic valve that automatically controls the multi-media filter to produce water and perform backwashing. Furthermore, in this embodiment, the COD removal unit 2 also includes a fan, which is connected to the multi-media filter 2-1 and the activated carbon adsorber 2-2 and is used to provide air to loosen the filter media in the multi-media filter and the activated carbon adsorber, thereby improving the backwash effect of the backwash pump.

[0050] Furthermore, in this embodiment, the multi-media filter is generally steel-lined with rubber, filled with various graded quartz sand filter media and anthracite, with an upper water distributor on the top and a steel plate-mounted dual-speed water cap at the bottom. It adopts a lower operating flow rate of 8 to 10 m / h. After a certain period of operation, when the inlet and outlet pressure difference reaches a certain value or the operating flow rate reaches, it is withdrawn from use and backwashed. The filter is designed with an air scrubbing interface to enhance the backwash effect.

[0051] The activated carbon adsorber is generally made of steel lined with rubber and filled with coconut shell activated carbon filter material. The filter material residence time is generally 30 minutes. After running for a certain period of time, when the inlet and outlet pressure difference reaches a certain value or the operating flow reaches a certain value, it will be shut down for backwashing.

[0052] Desalination unit 3 utilizes dual-membrane ultrafiltration and reverse osmosis technology to treat mixed wastewater. It comprises a self-cleaning filter 3-1, an ultrafiltration membrane assembly 3-2, an ultrafiltration water tank 3-3, an ultrafiltration water pump 3-4, a safety filter 3-5, a reverse osmosis high-pressure pump 3-6, and a reverse osmosis membrane assembly 3-7, all connected in sequence. Because pretreatment specifically reduces the hardness, silica, and COD content in the raw water, the desalination unit's inlet water is less susceptible to fouling and clogging. This ensures stable ultrafiltration and reverse osmosis operation, improving recovery rates, increasing the amount of recycled water, and reducing the amount of brine.

[0053] The intermediate water tank 2-3 is connected to the self-cleaning filter 3-1 through the intermediate water pump 7. The self-cleaning filter 3-1 is used to remove impurities with a particle size greater than 100 μm in the mixed sewage; the outlet of the self-cleaning filter 3-1 is connected to the ultrafiltration membrane assembly 3-2. The ultrafiltration membrane assembly 3-2 is equipped with an automatic valve to automatically control the ultrafiltration membrane assembly to produce water and backwash, maintain online chemical enhanced backwash, and restore chemical cleaning processes. The ultrafiltration membrane in the ultrafiltration membrane assembly 3-2 adopts PVDF hollow fiber membrane, which is used to filter and intercept pollutants such as colloids, proteins, microorganisms and macromolecular organic matter in the mixed sewage; the water produced at the outlet of the ultrafiltration membrane assembly 3-2 is connected to the ultrafiltration water tank 3-3, and the ultrafiltration water tank 3-3 takes water through the ultrafiltration water pump 3-4 and connects it to the security filter 3-5; a microporous filter element is installed in the security filter 3-5, which is used to filter tiny particulate impurities larger than 5μm in the mixed sewage; the security filter 3-5 is drawn into the reverse osmosis membrane assembly 3-7 through the reverse osmosis high-pressure pump 3-6, and one outlet of the reverse osmosis membrane assembly 3-7 is used to discharge fresh water, and the other outlet of the reverse osmosis membrane assembly 3-7 is used to discharge high-salt concentrated water.

[0054] The inlet of the ultrafiltration membrane assembly 3-2 is connected to the ultrafiltration water tank 3-3 through the backwash pipeline using the ultrafiltration backwash pump 3-10, which is used to take water into the ultrafiltration membrane assembly 3-2 for intermittent timed backwashing. The backwash water enters the membrane fiber from the water production side of the ultrafiltration membrane assembly 3-2, and the reverse water flow washes the pollutants attached to the surface of the membrane fiber out of the ultrafiltration membrane assembly 3-2.

[0055] Furthermore, in this embodiment, the ultrafiltration membrane of ultrafiltration membrane assembly 3-2 is designed to have a net flux of less than 45 LMH. The ultrafiltration membrane elements are made of PVDF, which is resistant to fouling, hydrophilic, and oxidation. The filtration method is external pressure, and the membrane elements are arranged in a vertical parallel configuration. The ultrafiltration unit typically operates for 30-40 minutes, using a cycle of operation-air wash-water wash-operation. The backwash of the ultrafiltration unit uses its own produced water, and the backwash air is compressed air.

[0056] The water flux of the ultrafiltration membrane assembly 3-2 is related to the pressure difference across it. The greater the pressure difference, the greater the water output, the worse the effluent, and the faster the membrane becomes contaminated. To avoid this phenomenon caused by pressure differences during operation, a flow control valve is installed at the inlet of each ultrafiltration unit to ensure constant output.

[0057] In this embodiment, the reverse osmosis membrane assembly 3-7 generally adopts a pollution-resistant membrane element. The reverse osmosis membrane of the reverse osmosis membrane assembly 3-7 is installed in a pressure vessel, and the pressure vessel is organically combined on a steel bracket through pipes, pipe fittings and valves, as well as necessary detection instruments.

[0058] The reverse osmosis membrane assembly 3-7 is equipped with a series of control valves on the system's inlet, product, and brine pipelines. These valves automatically control the production, flushing, and chemical cleaning processes of the reverse osmosis membrane assembly 3-7. Monitoring instruments and a programmable operating system ensure the long-term, systematic operation of the equipment with guaranteed quality and quantity. The reverse osmosis membrane is a scroll-type polyamide composite membrane. The fresh water outlet of the reverse osmosis membrane assembly 3-7 is connected to the reverse osmosis membrane assembly 3-7 via a reuse water tank 3-8 and a flushing water pump 3-9 for backwashing. The brine outlet of the reverse osmosis membrane assembly 3-7 is used for discharge. The fresh water outlet of the reverse osmosis membrane assembly 3-7 is connected to the reverse osmosis membrane assembly 3-7 via a reuse water tank 3-8 and a flushing water pump 3-9 for backwashing.

The outlet of the chemical cleaning tank 5-1 is connected to the inlet of the chemical cleaning pump 5-2, which in turn is connected to the cleaning filter 5-3. After the drug is filtered through the cleaning filter 5-3, it is connected via a cleaning pipeline to the chemical cleaning inlet of the ultrafiltration membrane assembly 3-2 or the reverse osmosis membrane assembly 3-7.

[0071] The following is a description based on specific data

[0072] Example 1

[0073] This embodiment provides a reclaimed water reuse device suitable for hard and silicon-containing wastewater. The device uses circulating water sewage as raw water, and mixes pretreated production sewage and washing sewage discharged from the production device. After the mixed sewage is treated by this project, it is used as circulating cooling water make-up water.

[0074] The designed inlet water quality is as follows:

[0075] Serial number Test items Index value 1 pH 6-9 2 COD ≤120mg / L 3 SS ≤100mg / L 4 Conductivity ≤4000μS / cm 5 <![CDATA[Calcium hardness (calculated as Ca 2+ count)]]> ≤120mg / L 6 <![CDATA[Total hardness (calculated as CaCO3)]]> ≤500mg / L 7 <![CDATA[SiO2]]> ≤35mg / L

[0076] The designed recycled water quality is as follows:

[0077]

[0078]

[0079] After metering from the raw water regulating tank, wastewater first enters the softening and desiliconization reaction tanks of the softening and desiliconization units via existing lift pumps. Sodium hydroxide and soda ash are added to the softening reaction tank, and MgCl2 is added to the desiliconization reaction tank, causing the carbonate hardness in the wastewater to react with silica to form a precipitate. The wastewater then enters the high-efficiency sedimentation tank, where coagulants and flocculants are added to form flocs before flowing into the inclined plate sedimentation zone. Within the inclined plate sedimentation zone, the flocculent precipitate settles to the bottom of the zone under the action of gravity. The effluent enters the neutralization tank, where hydrochloric acid is added to adjust the pH. The sludge at the bottom of the sedimentation tank is pumped by the residual sludge pump to the sludge dewatering unit for treatment. After softening, the effluent meets requirements for total hardness ≤ 100 mg / L, suspended solids ≤ 20 mg / L, pH 7.0-8.0, and SiO2 ≤ 15 mg / L. The effluent is pumped through a lift pump to the multi-media filter in the COD removal unit. The multi-media filter media further removes suspended solids from the wastewater, resulting in effluent suspended solids ≤10mg / L after treatment. The treated effluent enters the activated carbon adsorption tower, which utilizes the activated carbon's superior adsorption capacity to remove COD, surfactants, and other substances from the wastewater. After treatment with the activated carbon adsorption unit, the effluent COD is ≤60mg / L, and the surfactants are ≤3mg / L. After treatment, the effluent enters the desalination unit's self-cleaning filter, which removes fine particles larger than 100μm, suspended solids, colloids, and other impurities. The effluent then enters the desalination unit's ultrafiltration membrane assembly, which utilizes externally pressurized PVDF ultrafiltration elements with a filtration accuracy of ≤30nm and a net flux of ≤45LMH. Driven by pressure, this further removes macromolecular soluble substances, reducing the effluent turbidity to ≤0.5NTU and the SDI (Soil Dispersant Index) to ≤3. After treatment by the nano-ultrafiltration membrane assembly, the effluent enters the ultrafiltration tank. A lift pump then feeds the wastewater to the safety filter, which intercepts particles larger than 5μm carried by the raw water to prevent them from entering the desalination unit and damaging the reverse osmosis membrane. After treatment by the safety filter, the effluent enters the desalination unit's reverse osmosis membrane assembly under the action of a high-pressure pump. Desalination utilizes reverse osmosis technology, using reverse osmosis membranes to remove the vast majority of soluble salts, colloids, organic matter, and microorganisms from the water. After treatment by the desalination unit, the effluent meets the required water quality. After treatment by the desalination unit, the effluent enters the reuse water tank and is pumped by a lift pump to the circulating cooling water makeup system for reuse.

[0080] The sludge generated by the softening and silicon removal unit in the water reuse system of this embodiment can be processed in a separate sludge dewatering device. The backwash water from the multi-media filter, activated carbon adsorption tower, ultrafiltration membrane module backwash and rinse water, and reverse osmosis membrane module rinse water all enter the wastewater tank and are then transported to the raw water regulating tank via a wastewater lift pump. The brine from the reverse osmosis membrane module is transported to a brine collection tank and discharged after passing testing.

[0081] like Figure 2As shown in the figure, it is the water balance of the water reuse device in this embodiment. It can be seen that after using this water reuse device, 100m 3 / h of wastewater, after treatment, only 24m 3 / h of wastewater, the overall recovery rate of the system can reach 73%, which greatly reduces the wastewater discharge. The recycled water is transported to the circulating cooling water replenishment system, saving water costs.

[0082] At the same time, the entire system of this embodiment occupies a small area, has stable operation, and a high degree of automation, and is suitable for the reuse and treatment of reclaimed water containing hard and silicon-containing wastewater, thereby achieving the purpose of energy conservation and emission reduction.
