Description

Technical Field

[0001] This application relates to the field of wastewater treatment technology, specifically to a multi-channel dosing device for wastewater treatment. Background Technology

[0002] Wastewater treatment generally includes solid-liquid separation and liquid refining. First, impurities and liquid in the wastewater are separated, then the filtered liquid is treated to meet discharge standards. During liquid refining, wastewater treatment agents such as disinfectants and flocculants are added. Because different agents are needed for different wastewater treatments, different dosing pumps are required to add each agent individually, leading to complex piping in the dosing system and increasing the complexity of automatic pump control. Chinese patent CN220165868U proposes a wastewater treatment dosing skid, which uses a piping structure to accommodate dosing pumps of different sizes, thus allowing the addition of different agents. However, this piping structure only accommodates different pump sizes, making the entire dosing system complex. Furthermore, using multiple pumps to add different agents significantly increases the cost of the dosing system. Therefore, there is an urgent need to optimize existing dosing systems to simplify the structure, reduce costs, and improve performance while ensuring compatibility with different agents. Utility Model Content

Furthermore, the phrases "in one embodiment" or "in one embodiment" appearing throughout this specification do not necessarily refer to the same embodiment. Moreover, these specific features, structures, or characteristics can be combined in any suitable manner in one or more embodiments.

Furthermore, the terms "comprising," "including," or any other variations thereof are intended to cover non-exclusive inclusion, such that an article or terminal device that comprises a list of elements includes not only those elements but also other elements not expressly listed, or elements inherent to such an article or terminal device.

[0021] Wastewater treatment generally includes solid-liquid separation and liquid refining. First, impurities and liquid in the wastewater are separated, then the filtered liquid is treated to meet discharge standards. During liquid refining, wastewater treatment agents such as disinfectants and flocculants are added. Because different agents are needed for wastewater treatment, different dosing pumps 3 are required to add each agent individually, leading to complex piping and increased complexity in the automatic control of the dosing pumps 3. Existing piping structures only accommodate different sizes of dosing pumps 3, but the entire dosing mechanism is complex, and using multiple dosing pumps 3 to add different agents significantly increases the cost. Therefore, this invention provides a multi-channel wastewater dosing device that allows multiple agents to be added using a single dosing pump 3, simplifying the dosing structure, improving dosing performance, reducing dosing costs, and solving the aforementioned technical problems. The specific details of this invention are as follows:

[0022] Please refer to the appendix. Figure 1 and attached Figure 2As shown: This utility model provides a multi-channel dosing device for sewage treatment, including a main dosing pipe 1, multiple inlet pipes 2, a dosing pump 3, a backwash pump 4, multiple electronic valves A, multiple electronic valves B, and a controller. The multiple inlet pipes 2 are cross-connected to the main dosing pipe 1. An electronic valve A is provided on the main dosing pipe 1 between two adjacent inlet pipes 2, and an electronic valve B is provided between the connection ends of the inlet pipes 2 and the main dosing pipe 1. The dosing pump 3 is connected to the first inlet of the main dosing pipe 1. The two ends of the backwash pump 4 are respectively connected to a water tank and the second inlet of the dosing pump 3. The controller is signal-connected to the dosing pump 3, the backwash pump 4, the multiple electronic valves A and B, and is used to control the opening and closing of the corresponding electronic valves and the pump.

[0023] like Figure 1 As shown, the dosing pump 3 is connected to a main dosing pipe 1, which has multiple inlet pipes 2 connected to it. The entry and exit of each inlet pipe 2 is controlled by an independent electronic valve B. An electronic valve A is installed between adjacent inlet pipes 2 on the main dosing pipe 1. This electronic valve controls whether the chemical solution from the inlet pipe 2 can enter the dosing pump 3 through the main dosing pipe 1. Furthermore, when the backwash pump 4 is operating, this electronic valve A effectively prevents the chemical solution from entering other unrelated inlet pipes 2, effectively avoiding mutual interference between the chemical solutions. The output end of the dosing pump 3 is directly connected to the wastewater treatment unit or to other mechanisms requiring chemical dosing.

[0024] like Figure 1 The solid arrows and the arrows indicating the working direction of the liquid in the pipeline when the dosing pump 3 and the backflush pump 4 are working, respectively, are used to show the direction of liquid flow in the pipeline.

[0025] In some embodiments, the dosing device further includes a mixing tank 5, which is disposed on the main dosing pipe 1 between the inlet pipe 2 and the dosing pump 3. The mixing tank 5 is provided with a mixing mechanism, which includes: a base, a connecting shaft 51, blades 52, and a stirring rod 53. One end of the connecting shaft 51 is rotatably connected to the base, and the blades 52 and the stirring rod 53 are alternately disposed on the connecting shaft 51.

[0026] like Figure 2 As shown, the function of the mixing tank 5 is to ensure that the liquid medicine delivered from the inlet pipe 2 is fully mixed with water before entering the dosing pump 3, thereby improving the uniformity of the dosing solution. The mixing mechanism inside the mixing tank 5 utilizes rotational stirring to rotate the liquid within the tank and mix the different components. A motor drives the connecting shaft 51 on the base to rotate at high speed, causing the blades 52 and stirring rods 53 on the connecting shaft 51 to rotate the liquid inside the tank. The blades 52 and stirring rods 53 are alternately positioned on the connecting shaft 51 to prevent the formation of fixed eddies in the liquid within the tank, which would be detrimental to liquid mixing.

[0027] In addition, the stirring rod 53 and the blade 52 in the aforementioned mixing tank 5 have different rotation radii. The different rotation radii are to take into account the liquid at different radii, so as to increase the uniformity of the mixture.

[0028] like Figure 2 As shown, the aforementioned blades 52 include blades A and B with opposite rotation directions, and blades A and B are alternately arranged on the connecting shaft 51. The effect of alternately arranging two types of blades 52 with opposite rotation directions is that, under the condition that the rotation direction of the connecting shaft 51 is constant, the liquid layer stirred by the blades 52 with the same rotation direction as the connecting shaft 51 and the liquid layer stirred by the blades 52 with the opposite rotation direction of the connecting shaft 51 can generate an interaction force, which promotes the mixing effect.

[0029] In some embodiments, the first inlet and the second inlet of the dosing pump 3 are the same. In this case, the time required for the backwash pump 4 to clean the residual drug solution inside the dosing pump 3 is longer than that of the aforementioned setting, but the effect of rinsing the drug solution remains the same.

[0030] In other embodiments, the present invention also includes a metering pump and a reagent concentration detector. The metering pump is installed on multiple inlet pipes 2 and is signal-connected to a controller. The reagent concentration detector is installed at the connection between the main dosing pipe 1 and the dosing pump 3, and is used to detect the concentration of the reagent in the pipeline, to detect whether the reagent in the pipeline meets the preset dosing concentration, so as to facilitate the control of the dosing amount, and at the same time to confirm whether the backflushing cleaning is thorough.

[0031] In addition, in some embodiments, the aforementioned drug inlet pipe 2 further includes a drug dosing chamber 21, which is connected in series with the electronic valve B; the drug dosing chamber 21 includes an independent first dosing end and a second dosing end, which are respectively configured to add liquid drugs and solid drugs. It also includes a pipe rack, which is snapped into the main drug dosing pipe 1 and multiple drug inlet pipes 2, and the pipe rack is arranged horizontally, vertically, or inclined to the ground.

[0032] In this embodiment, the dosing chamber 21 is the structure in the dosing pipe 2 used to add drugs into the pipe. Before adding drugs, the electronic valve B needs to be closed to prevent the added drugs from flowing out before they are fully dissolved or mixed, which would affect the overall dosing effect. The independent first and second dosing ends are used to add liquid and solid drugs respectively, because different drug forms require different dosing structures. This embodiment does not impose specific restrictions on the structure, quantity, or installation position of the first and second dosing ends, and can be adapted to actual usage.

[0033] Finally, this utility model provides a multi-channel dosing device for wastewater treatment, including a main dosing pipe 1, multiple inlet pipes 2, a dosing pump 3, a backwash pump 4, multiple electronic valves A, multiple electronic valves B, and a controller. The multiple inlet pipes 2 are cross-connected to the main dosing pipe 1. An electronic valve A is installed on the main dosing pipe 1 between adjacent inlet pipes 2, and an electronic valve B is installed between the connection ends of the inlet pipes 2 and the main dosing pipe 1. The dosing pump 3 is connected to the first inlet of the main dosing pipe 1. The two ends of the backwash pump 4 are connected to a water tank and the second inlet of the dosing pump 3, respectively. The controller is signal-connected to the dosing pump 3, the backwash pump 4, the multiple electronic valves A, and the electronic valves B. This utility model enables the addition of multiple chemicals through a single dosing pump 3, simplifying the dosing structure, improving dosing performance, and reducing dosing costs.
