[0002] Palm oil is a common vegetable oil, primarily produced from palm trees in tropical regions. Widely used in industries such as food, cosmetics, and cleaning products, palm oil is a key agricultural product. However, the production of palm oil generates significant amounts of wastewater, which contains a small amount of grease on its surface. For example, Chinese patent CN220245815U proposes a separation device for palm oil production. Compared to conventional devices, this device facilitates the separation of oil and water, thus facilitating further filtration of the wastewater.

[0003] In the above scheme, the palm oil wastewater is separated into oil and water by using a filter plate in combination with scraping. However, when the filter plate is simply scraped, the filter holes inside the filter plate will quickly be clogged with grease, thereby affecting the treatment effect of the palm oil wastewater. At the same time, when the palm oil wastewater is separated into oil and water by the filter plate, the oil and water cannot be completely separated, thereby affecting subsequent processing operations.

[0022] The following will be combined with the drawings in the embodiments of the present invention to clearly and completely describe the technical solutions in the embodiments of the present invention. Obviously, the embodiments described are only part of the embodiments of the present invention, not all of the embodiments. Based on the embodiments of the present invention, all other embodiments obtained by ordinary technicians in this field without making creative efforts are within the scope of protection of the present invention.

[0023] This utility model provides a technical solution, please refer to Figure 1 、 Figure 2 and Figure 3 A reactor for treating palm oil production wastewater includes: a separation box 1 and an anaerobic tank 4. The separation box 1 cooperates with a separation mechanism 2 to perform oil-water separation reaction on the palm oil production wastewater. The anaerobic tank 4 is a common anaerobic tank in the prior art and can react and treat the palm oil production wastewater. The anaerobic tank 4 is connected to the separation box 1 through a valve. The top of the separation box 1 is connected to the separation mechanism 2. The separation mechanism 2 includes a hollow cylinder 21, which can collect oil.

[0024] The right side of the hollow cylinder 21 is sleeved with a first conical tooth 22, the outside of the first conical tooth 22 is meshed with a second conical tooth 23, the bottom of the second conical tooth 23 is connected to a motor 24, the right side of the hollow cylinder 21 is connected to a first curved pipe 25, and the other end of the first curved pipe 25 is connected to a first water pump 26, the water outlet of the first water pump 26 is connected to a second curved pipe 27, and the other end of the second curved pipe 27 is connected to a cooling water tower 28, and the outside of the cooling water tower 28 is connected to a second water pump 29. The cooperation of the first curved pipe 25, the first water pump 26, the second curved pipe 27, the cooling water tower 28, the second water pump 29 and the water pipe enables the hollow cylinder 21 to circulate and cool to collect grease, and the second conical tooth 23, the first conical tooth 22 and the motor 24 can drive the hollow cylinder 21 to rotate to collect grease.

[0025] The water outlet of the second water pump 29 is connected to the hollow cylinder 21 through a water pipe. The first bend 25 and the junction of the water pipe and the hollow cylinder 21 are equipped with bearings. Spherical bearings 211 are sleeved on both ends of the hollow cylinder 21. The outside of the spherical bearing 211 is connected to the separation box 1 through an assembly arm 212. The hollow cylinder 21 cooperates with the assembly arm 212 to support and assemble the hollow cylinder 21. An annular groove is provided inside the hollow cylinder 21, and the outside of the hollow cylinder 21 is a cylindrical aluminum alloy plate. The annular groove can allow the coolant inside the hollow cylinder 21 to circulate, thereby continuously reducing the temperature outside the hollow cylinder 21, and the aluminum alloy plate increases the overall thermal conductivity of the hollow cylinder 21.

[0026] The bottoms of the motor 24, the first water pump 26 and the second water pump 29 are all connected to a pedestal 241, and the pedestal 241 is connected to the separation box 1. The pedestal 241 can support and fix the motor 24, the first water pump 26 and the second water pump 29. The cooling water tower 28 includes a box body, the top of the box body is equipped with a fan, and the interior of the box body is equipped with an electric stirrer. The cooling water tower 28 can cool the coolant and dissipate heat before use.

[0027] See also Figure 4 The top of the separation box 1 is connected to a collecting mechanism 3, which includes a collecting box 31. The collecting box 31 can collect grease. The outside of the collecting box 31 is connected to a scraper 32, which can scrape and collect the grease on the outside of the hollow cylinder 21. The bottom of the scraper 32 is equipped with a limiting arm 33, and the limiting arm 33 is connected to the separation box 1. The limiting arm 33 can support the hollow cylinder 21.

[0028] In this solution, the first water pump 26 is first started to extract the coolant from the hollow cylinder 21 through the first bend 25, and then the coolant is fed into the cooling tower 28 through the second bend 27 for cooling. The coolant is then discharged back into the hollow cylinder 21 through the second water pump 29 and the water pipe for cooling and use, and the palm oil wastewater is discharged into the separation box 1. The motor 24 is started to drive the first bevel gear 22 to engage and rotate through the second conical gear 23, thereby driving the hollow cylinder 21 to rotate. As the density of the oil in the palm oil wastewater is lower than that of water, the oil floating on the water surface is driven. The low temperature outside the hollow cylinder 21 causes the oil to condense and form quickly. When the hollow cylinder 21 moves to the outside of the collection mechanism 3, the oil is scraped by the scraper 32 and discharged into the collection box 31 for collection and storage. After the anaerobic tank 4 is started to absorb the palm oil wastewater that has completed the oil-water separation in the separation box 1, it is processed by anaerobic reaction.

[0029] When palm oil wastewater is undergoing reaction treatment, the additional separation mechanism 2 utilizes the characteristics of palm oil wastewater such as low oil density and easy solidification when cooled to quickly separate the palm oil wastewater into oil and water, thereby avoiding the transmission filter plate filtration separation method from being easily blocked, thereby improving the subsequent treatment effect of palm oil wastewater. At the same time, through the additional collection mechanism 3, when the separation mechanism 2 is performing oil-water separation, the separated oil is automatically scraped and collected, thereby enabling the separation mechanism 2 to continuously maintain an efficient oil-water separation speed.
