Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This utility model relates to the field of wastewater treatment technology, specifically a catalytic oxidation reactor for treating petrochemical wastewater. Background Technology
[0002] Petrochemical wastewater refers to wastewater generated during petroleum and chemical production processes. This type of wastewater typically contains large amounts of organic matter, suspended solids, heavy metals, and toxic and harmful substances, posing a threat to the environment and human health. Treatment methods for petrochemical wastewater usually employ a comprehensive approach combining physical, chemical, and biological treatment technologies. Through processes such as oil separation, flotation, filtration, coagulation sedimentation, oxidation, electrolysis, and activated sludge, pollutants such as oil, suspended solids, organic matter, and heavy metals in the wastewater are effectively removed, achieving water purification and resource recovery to protect the environment and promote sustainable development. Ozone catalytic oxidation is a commonly used treatment method for petrochemical wastewater, which uses ozone and catalysts to accelerate the oxidation process.
[0003] Due to the complex composition of petrochemical wastewater, the commonly used catalytic oxidation treatment has drawbacks such as low efficiency and long treatment time. Many technologies have been explored to integrate other treatment methods, such as the authorized invention patent CN102040262B, which describes a fluidized bed electrolytic catalytic oxidation reactor and treatment method. This method organically combines electrolytic oxidation, catalytic oxidation, and fluidized bed to significantly improve treatment efficiency. However, the reactor disclosed in this patent is relatively general, and its structure is relatively simple. In experiments, it was found that the treated waste could not be fully circulated in the electrolysis and catalytic oxidation sections, resulting in no significant increase in treatment efficiency. In addition, the sedimentation efficiency in the separator is low. Utility Model Content

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.
[0017] As attached Figure 1-4 As shown, the catalytic oxidation reactor for petrochemical wastewater treatment disclosed in this utility model includes a reaction tank 1 and a sedimentation tank 2.
[0018] The reaction vessel 1 and the sedimentation vessel 2 are hollow rotary cavity structures.
[0019] The reaction vessel 1 includes a vessel body 10, an ozone catalytic oxidation unit 11, an electrolytic oxidation unit 12, and a three-phase separator 13.

[0027] Appendix Figure 2 As shown, multiple vertical guide plates 213 are disposed on the upper part of the filter plate 214 and on the lower part of the filter plate 214. A gap exists between the bottom of the vertical guide plates 213 located on the upper part of the filter plate 214 and the filter plate 214, primarily to prevent solid matter from accumulating at the junction. The vertical guide plates 213 located below the inclined baffle plate 211 have their upper parts at the same distance from the inclined baffle plate 211, or proportional to their distance from the liquid outlet pipe 103, thereby forming an auxiliary...

[0033] The electrolytic oxidation unit 12 includes several electrolytic electrodes 121 and several reflux pump suction pipe groups 122.
[0034] The electrolytic electrode 121 is a plate-shaped structure with a circular arc bend. The cathode and anode are arranged opposite each other in pairs, and the cathode and anode are arranged in a circumferential array in the gap between the inner reaction tube 111 and the tank 10.
[0035] The upper baffle plate 115 is made of insulating material, and the upper part of the electrolytic electrode 121 is fixed on the upper baffle plate 115. The specific wiring of the electrode is conventional knowledge in the field.
