Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of wastewater treatment, and in particular to a self-cleaning denitrifying biological filter for treating domestic wastewater. Background Technology

[0002] A denitrifying biological filter contains a filter media layer that utilizes the microbial community on the filter media for biological denitrification, simultaneously achieving solid-liquid separation. Its core principle lies in the fact that, under anoxic conditions, denitrifying bacteria attached to the filter media use organic carbon sources as electron donors to remove nitrate nitrogen (NOx) from the wastewater. 3- N) or nitrite nitrogen (NO) 2- Nitrogen (N) is reduced to nitrogen (N2) and released into the air, completing the denitrification process. At the same time, the filter media effectively removes suspended solids, organic matter, heavy metal ions, and other harmful substances from the water through interception, adsorption, and desorption.

[0003] However, existing denitrification biological filters suffer from problems such as packing material caking, low biofilm concentration in the filter media layer, and low denitrification load, which greatly affect the quality of the effluent. Utility Model Content

[0004] The purpose of this invention is to provide a self-cleaning denitrifying biological filter for treating domestic sewage, in order to solve problems such as packing caking, low biofilm concentration in the filter media, and low denitrification load in the existing technology.

[0005] To achieve the aforementioned objectives, the technical solution of this utility model is as follows:

[0006] A self-cleaning denitrifying biological filter for treating domestic wastewater includes a filter body. The filter body has an inlet and a outlet at its bottom, and an outlet and an overflow outlet at its top. An overflow trough communicating with the overflow outlet is located outside the filter body. The filter body contains a filter media zone, which includes upper and lower filter media modules arranged vertically. The lower side of the upper filter media module has several downward-facing upper channels at even intervals, and the upper side of the lower filter media module has upward-facing lower channels corresponding to the upper channels. The upper and lower channels interlock to form a fluid channel, which is filled with suspended ball packing material. The fluid channel confines the suspended ball packing material within a specific spatial area. Flowing wastewater causes the suspended ball packing material to become fluidized within the fluid channel, colliding with each other. This allows microorganisms on the suspended ball packing material to detach, reducing packing material caking, achieving self-cleaning of the suspended ball packing material, improving denitrification capacity, and enhancing effluent quality. The suspended ball packing and the filter media in the filter media zone work together to treat domestic sewage and make full contact with the sewage to achieve efficient removal of total nitrogen.

[0007] Preferably, the structure of the upper filter media module is the same as that of the upper filter media module, both including a grid box and filter media filling the grid box.

[0008] Preferably, the lower filter media module has several partitions evenly spaced on its lower side, and several flat sheet membranes are disposed between adjacent partitions. The two ends of each flat sheet membrane are rotatably connected to the corresponding partition via a fixed shaft. When the biological wastewater flows upward, it drives the flat sheet membranes to rotate, ensuring uniform and sufficient contact between the membranes and the wastewater. This not only efficiently removes suspended solids, bacteria, viruses, organic matter, and inorganic matter from the wastewater, but also impacts the flowing wastewater, washing away impurities on the membranes, reducing membrane clogging, and further improving the effluent quality.

[0009] Preferably, the filter body is equipped with a cleaning mechanism, including a water pump. The inlet of the water pump is connected to an overflow tank, and a return pipe is provided at the outlet. Several spray pipes are installed on the return pipe, positioned between adjacent fluid channels. Each spray pipe is equipped with several rotating nozzles, each with nozzles pointing in different directions. The cleaning mechanism can circulate treated wastewater into the filter body and spray it out through the rotating nozzles to flush the filter media, suspended ball packing, and flat sheet membrane in the filter media zone, reducing clogging and improving the self-cleaning ability of the filter body.

[0010] Preferably, an aeration system is installed at the bottom of the filter body, including an aeration pump, several aeration discs, and aeration pipes. The aeration pump is located outside the filter body, the aeration pipes are located inside the filter body, and the aeration discs are mounted on the aeration pipes. The aeration discs have inner ring aeration holes and outer ring aeration holes on their circumferential surface. The diameter of the inner ring aeration holes is smaller than that of the outer ring aeration holes. The smaller diameter of the inner ring aeration holes results in higher oxygen utilization, higher oxygenation efficiency, and longer bubble residence time. The larger diameter of the outer ring aeration holes provides a larger contact area between the rising bubbles and the wastewater, which can vigorously agitate the wastewater, drive the flat membrane to rotate, and facilitate wastewater mixing and biological reactions. The simultaneous action of the inner and outer ring aeration holes creates a flow velocity difference in the wastewater, accelerating the upward flow of the wastewater.

[0011] Preferably, the lower side of the upper channel is provided with a buckle, and the upper side of the lower channel is provided with a locking hole for engaging with the buckle. The buckle and locking hole allow the fluid channel to be disassembled for easy replacement of the suspended ball packing, resulting in a simple and convenient structure.

[0012] Preferably, the filter media is quartz sand.

[0013] The beneficial effects of this utility model are:

[0014] 1. In this invention, the fluid channel confines the suspended ball packing within a specific spatial area. Flowing wastewater causes the suspended ball packing to fluidize within the channel, colliding with each other. This allows microorganisms on the suspended ball packing to detach, reducing packing caking and achieving self-cleaning of the packing, thus improving denitrification capacity and effluent quality. The suspended ball packing and the filter media in the filter media zone work together to treat domestic wastewater, ensuring thorough contact and achieving efficient removal of total nitrogen. Simultaneously, the cleaning mechanism circulates the treated wastewater back into the filter body and sprays it through rotating nozzles to flush the filter media, suspended ball packing, and flat sheet membrane in the filter media zone, reducing clogging and improving the filter body's self-cleaning ability.

[0015] 2. In this invention, when the biological wastewater flows upward, it drives the flat sheet membrane to rotate, so that the flat sheet membrane and the wastewater are in uniform and full contact. This not only efficiently removes suspended solids, bacteria, viruses, organic matter and inorganic matter from the wastewater, but also impacts the flowing wastewater, washing off impurities on the flat sheet membrane, reducing membrane clogging and further improving the quality of the effluent.
