Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of wastewater treatment technology, specifically a functionalized biological fluidized bed for treating petroleum hydrocarbon pollutants. Background Technology

[0002] Petroleum hydrocarbon pollutants are toxic, hydrophobic, and highly mobile. They not only adsorb into soil media, disrupting the balance of soil organic matter composition and structure, but also enter surface water and groundwater, causing water quality deterioration and poisoning aquatic organisms. Petroleum hydrocarbons can enter the human body through food chain transport, respiration, and skin contact, harming human health. Petroleum hydrocarbon pollution sources are widespread, including the dumping of oily solid waste, spills of crude oil, irrigation with oily wastewater or water sources contaminated by petroleum, and atmospheric deposition of petroleum hydrocarbons. In the treatment of petroleum hydrocarbon-contaminated wastewater, biological fluidized bed technology is widely used due to its unique advantages. Biological fluidized beds use small-diameter solid particles as carriers to achieve high biomass maintenance and good mass transfer in a fluidized state, thus providing high volumetric loading, strong shock resistance, and rapid microbial reaction rates. Simultaneously, they have a simple structure, low energy consumption, effectively mitigate membrane fouling, and reduce operating costs.

[0003] In the use of biological fluidized beds, due to the presence of packing material, the fluidized bed is prone to poor flow and circulation of sewage, resulting in low utilization of the packing material and the biological fluidized bed failing to fully realize its design efficiency.

[0022] As attached Figure 1 , 2 As shown in Figures 1 and 3, the tank 1 is a hollow rotating cavity structure with a water outlet 11 at the top and an openable mud outlet 12 at the bottom. The bottom side of the tank is inclined inward to form a frustum shape. An inner tube 2 is installed inside the tank. The outer diameter of the inner tube 2 is smaller than the inner diameter of the tank 1. It is installed in the central area inside the tank 1 via a connecting rod.

[0023] Packing material (not shown in the attached diagram) is installed in the gap between inner pipe 2 and / or inner pipe 2 and tank body. The specific packing material is selected according to the specific conditions of the wastewater being treated.

[0024] A three-phase separation assembly 3 is installed in the space of the tank 1 above the inner tube 2. The three-phase separation assembly 3 is a conventional structure in the field. In one embodiment of this application, the three-phase separation assembly 3 includes an outer ring and inner corner pieces. The inner corner pieces are formed by bending sheet metal and are arranged in layers with adjacent layers of inner corner pieces staggered.

[0025] As attached Figure 2 As shown, further, the bottom of the tank 1 is inclined inward to form a frustum-shaped bottom frustum side 13, the top of which is higher than the bottom of the inner pipe 2. This can optimize the path of sewage flowing from the outside of the inner pipe 2 into the inner pipe 2 and reduce flow resistance.

[0026] The circulation component 5 includes several circulation units 51, three of which are shown in the figure, arranged in a circular array. Each circulation unit 51 includes a circulation pipe 511 and a circulation pump 512. One end of the circulation pipe 511 is the water inlet end, which passes through the tank 1 and is located between the tank 1 and the inner pipe 2. The other end passes through the tank 1 and is located inside the inner pipe 2. A circulation pump 512 is installed on the circulation pipe 511.

[0027] As attached Figure 3As shown, due to the presence of packing material, in order to reduce the amount of packing material entering the circulation pipe 511, the water inlet end of the circulation pipe 511 is provided with a cross-section inclined to the vertical plane, and a filter screen 513 is provided at the water inlet end. The presence of the inclined cross-section can play a certain self-cleaning role, eliminating the need for frequent manual cleaning.

[0028] As attached Figure 4-6 As shown, the feeding assembly 4 includes a water inlet pipe 41, an air inlet pipe 42, a water distribution component 43, and several nozzles 44.

[0029] Furthermore, the other end of the circulation pipe 511 is directly connected to the water inlet pipe 41.

[0030] The nozzle 44 includes an inner nozzle tube 441, an inner nozzle cone 442, an outer nozzle tube 443, and a connecting cross plate 444.

[0031] The inner cone 442 of the nozzle is an inverted cone shape and is located inside the inner tube 441 of the nozzle; the inner tube 441 of the nozzle is located inside the outer tube 443 of the nozzle, and the inner tube 441, the inner cone 442, and the outer tube 443 of the nozzle are coaxial and connected to each other at the top through the connecting cross plate 444.

[0032] The height of the inner cone 442 of the nozzle is less than the length of the outer tube 443 of the nozzle, the length of the outer tube 443 of the nozzle is less than the length of the inner tube 441 of the nozzle, and the bottom of the outer tube 443 of the nozzle is closed.

[0033] The outer nozzle tube 443 is connected to the air inlet pipe, and gas enters the gap between the outer nozzle tube 443 and the inner nozzle tube 441. The top of the outer nozzle tube 443 is tilted inward, which reduces the gap between the top of the outer nozzle tube 443 and the inner nozzle tube 441. The inner nozzle tube 441 is connected to the water inlet pipe 41 through the water distribution component 43.

[0034] The attached diagram shows five nozzles 44. The water distribution component 43 is generally frustum-shaped, including an outer side 431, an inner side 432, and a top surface 433. The outer side 431 and the inner side 432 are nested together. The top surface 433 is disc-shaped and covers the top opening of the outer side 431. The outer nozzles 44 are arranged in a circumferential array on the top surface 433. The inner tube 441 of the nozzle is spatially connected to the outer side 431 and the inner side 432. The inner tube 441 of the nozzle 44 located in the center passes through the top surface 433 and is connected to the bottom of the inner side 432. The bottom of the outer side 431 is connected to the water inlet pipe 41.

[0035] The nozzle outer tubes 443 of multiple nozzles 44 are connected to each other through connecting pipes, and the nozzle outer tube 443 of one of the nozzles 44 is connected to the air inlet pipe 42.

[0036] This allows the gas to be fully mixed with the wastewater directly at the nozzle 44 outlet during the air and water intake process.
