Currently, Fenton equipment on the market is typically a tower-type structure, with all reagents added to the same container.

[0025] In order to solve the technical problems in the background art, such as Figure 1-4 As shown, this application provides a technical solution: a novel Fenton device for treating high-concentration wastewater, characterized as follows:
[0026] The first reaction tank 1 receives high-concentration wastewater to be treated. The wastewater first enters the first reaction tank 1, and acid is injected into it through the injection port 7 to adjust the pH value of the wastewater to a suitable acidic environment, typically to 3-4. The second reaction tank 2, after pH adjustment, is used to inject the liquid from the first reaction tank 1 into the second reaction tank 2 via the wastewater pump 5 and pipelines. In the second reaction tank 2, ferrous sulfate is injected through the injection port 7. The ferrous sulfate reacts with the H+ in the acid solution... + The ionic reaction generates ferrous ions (Fe2+). The mixer 6 continues stirring to ensure a uniform distribution of the ferrous ions. Similarly, the liquid from the second reaction tank 2 is injected into the third reaction tank 3 via the wastewater pump 5 and pipelines. In the third reaction tank 3, hydrogen peroxide is injected through the injection port 7. The hydrogen peroxide reacts with the ferrous ions via a Fenton reaction, generating highly oxidizing ·OH radicals, effectively degrading organic matter in the wastewater. The liquid from the third reaction tank 3 is then injected into the fourth reaction tank 4 via the wastewater pump 5 and pipelines. In the fourth reaction tank 4, alkaline solution is injected through the injection port 7 to neutralize any remaining acidic substances after the reaction, raising the pH of the treated liquid to meet discharge standards. Each reaction tank is equipped with a mixer 6 to thoroughly mix the chemicals and wastewater in each tank, ensuring uniform reaction. The injection port 7 is located at the top of each reaction tank for injecting the appropriate chemicals.
[0027] Furthermore, the first reaction tank 1, the second reaction tank 2, the third reaction tank 3, and the fourth reaction tank 4 are all enclosed tanks, each covered with a cover 8. The cover 8 has a vent 9. The cover 8 employs a sealed design to ensure the reaction is not disturbed by external factors and that the reaction is complete. The vent 9 on the cover 8 is used to discharge toxic and harmful gases generated during the treatment process, while simultaneously maintaining stable internal pressure.
[0028] It should be noted that a valve 10 is installed on the pipeline before each sewage pump 5 to control the liquid flow rate from the previous reaction tank to the next reaction tank. The valve 10 can be manually or automatically controlled to adapt to different treatment needs and flow rate adjustments.
[0029] It is worth noting that the system includes four storage tanks 11 and four injection pumps 12. Specifically, the storage tanks 11 and injection pumps 12 are respectively located near the first reaction tank 1, the second reaction tank 2, the third reaction tank 3, and the fourth reaction tank 4. The injection pumps 12 are used to inject the drug solution in the storage tanks 11 into each reaction tank through pipelines. The four storage tanks 11 are filled with different drug solutions for injection into different reaction tanks.
[0030] It should be noted that the flow controller 13 is installed on the pipeline connecting the injection pump 12 and the storage tank 11 to control the flow rate of the liquid medicine, ensuring the stability and accuracy of the medicine delivery. Firstly, in the first reaction tank 1, Fenton's reagent reacts under acidic conditions. In neutral and alkaline environments, ferrous ions cannot catalyze the oxidation of hydrogen peroxide to produce OH-. The influent pH value is generally between 3 and 4, resulting in the highest removal rate and best effect. Since the oxidation is essentially a hydroxyl radical (OH), OH can react with most organic matter to degrade it. Too high a pH easily generates Fe(OH)+, colloids, or amorphous ferric oxide precipitates, thus reducing or eliminating the catalytic activity of the system, which is unfavorable for the formation of (OH). Conversely, when the pH is too low, H+ is a scavenger of (OH), and the slow decomposition of hydrogen peroxide is also unfavorable for the formation of (OH). Secondly, if the concentration of ferrous ions in the second reaction tank 2 is too low, the reaction rate will be extremely slow; if there is an excess of ferrous ions, they will reduce hydrogen peroxide and oxidize themselves to ferric ions, consuming the reagent and increasing the color of the effluent. As the concentration of ferrous ions increases, COD, Cr, decolorization rate, and removal rate gradually increase. However, if the concentration of ferrous ions is too high, a large number of hydroxyl radicals (OH) will be generated in the effluent at the beginning. OH reacts slowly with organic matter, causing OH to accumulate, resulting in a decrease in OH. Furthermore, ferrous ions will consume some hydrogen peroxide. Therefore, the concentration of ferrous ions should be controlled according to the water quality and quantity. Thirdly, if the amount of hydrogen peroxide added in the third reaction tank 3 is too high, not only will it not generate more hydroxyl radicals, but it will also oxidize ferrous ions to ferric ions at the beginning of the reaction. The reaction will proceed under the catalysis of the oxidized ferric ions, consuming hydrogen peroxide and inhibiting the generation of hydroxyl radicals. At the same time, excessive hydrogen peroxide will affect the subsequent flocculation and sedimentation effect.
[0031] Furthermore, a wastewater tank 18 is located on one side of the first reaction tank 1, and its internal structure is similar to that of the first reaction tank 1, also being a rectangular tank. It is also made of corrosion-resistant materials. The wastewater tank 18 is used to collect wastewater to be treated. A wastewater pump 5 is located above the wastewater tank 18 and is used to pump wastewater from the wastewater tank 18 to the first reaction tank 1. The wastewater pump 5 adopts a high-efficiency and energy-saving design to ensure smooth wastewater transport.
[0032] It should be noted that pH sensors are installed in the first reaction tank 1 and the fourth reaction tank 4, respectively. The pH sensors employ advanced measurement technology to monitor the pH value of the liquid in the tank in real time and transmit the data to the data processing system. Based on changes in pH value, reaction conditions are adjusted, such as by adding acid or alkali adjusters, to maintain the stability of the reaction process. Acid solution is injected into the first storage tank 11 through the injection port 7 of the first reaction tank 1 via the injection pump 12 and flow controller 13. The agitator 6 is used to thoroughly stir the solution, adjusting the pH value of the wastewater to 3-4. The pH sensor monitors and provides feedback on the pH value in real time to ensure accurate adjustment. The treated liquid in the third reaction tank 3 is transported to the fourth reaction tank 4 via the wastewater pump 5. Simultaneously, the alkali solution in the fourth storage tank 11 is transported to the injection port 7 of the fourth reaction tank 4 via the injection pump 12. The flow controller 13 controls the flow rate of the alkali solution, and the agitator 6 continues stirring to adjust the pH value of the wastewater to a suitable discharge standard. The pH sensor in the fourth reaction tank 4 monitors and provides feedback on the pH value in real time to ensure the final effluent quality.
[0033] Furthermore, the buffer tank 14 receives the liquid treated by the fourth reaction tank 4, serving as a buffer and storage unit. Within the buffer tank 14, the liquid can be further stabilized, providing stable influent conditions for subsequent processing units.
[0034] It should be noted that the agitator 6 is located at the top of the first reaction tank 1, the second reaction tank 2, the third reaction tank 3, and the fourth reaction tank 4. The agitator motor 15 is the power source for the agitator 6, driving its rotation. The rotating shaft 16 connects the agitator motor 15 and the fan blades 17, transmitting power from the agitator motor 15 to drive the fan blades 17. The rotating shaft 16 is made of high-strength stainless steel, possessing excellent corrosion resistance and wear resistance. The fan blades 17 are symmetrically arranged on the rotating shaft 16 to agitate the liquid within the reaction tanks. The fan blades 17 feature a streamlined design, effectively improving agitation efficiency.
[0035] It is worth noting that the fan blades 17 are arranged in a double layer along the axis of the rotating shaft 16, symmetrically, for stirring the liquid in the tank. The spacing between the first and second layer of fan blades 17 can be adjusted according to actual needs. The double-layered fan blades 17 form two independent fluid layers during rotation, thereby improving the stirring efficiency of the mixer 6.
[0036] Although embodiments of this application have been shown and described, it will be understood by those skilled in the art that various changes, modifications, substitutions and variations can be made to these embodiments without departing from the principles and spirit of this application, the scope of which is defined by the appended claims and their equivalents.
