A filter membrane assembly 8 is disposed inside the inner cylinder 4. A water phase pipe 14 and a liquid level regulating pipe 16 are connected to the right side of the outer cylinder 1.

[0019] An oil phase outlet 3 is fixedly connected to the top left side of the outer cylinder 1. There are three layers of oil-separating membrane 2. The outer edge of each layer of oil-separating membrane 2 is fixedly welded to the inner wall of the outer cylinder 1. A support frame is fixedly welded at equal intervals on the inner side. The other end of the support frame is fixedly welded to the inner cylinder 4. An oleophilic and hydrophobic membrane is provided on the surface of the oil-separating membrane 2.

[0020] Oil inlet a6 and oil inlet b7 are connected and surround the inner cylinder 4. The top of the inner cylinder 4 is fixedly welded with an inner cylinder sealing plate 12. The inner filter cylinder 5 is a cylindrical cylinder with a sealed bottom. The top of the inner filter cylinder 5 is fixedly welded to the bottom inner wall of the inner cylinder sealing plate 12. The center of the inner cylinder sealing plate 12 is provided with a liquid inlet 11. The top of the filter membrane assembly 8 is fixedly connected to the bottom inner wall of the inner cylinder sealing plate 12 by bolts. The top of the filter membrane assembly 8 is connected to the liquid inlet 11.

[0021] The top left and right sides of the inner filter cylinder 5 are provided with liquid outlets b10 and a9 at equal intervals.

[0022] The right bottom of the outer cylinder 1 is fixedly communicated with a discharge port 13, the top of the discharge port 13 is fixedly communicated with the bottom of a water communication pipe 14, the top of the water communication pipe 14 is fixedly communicated with the bottom of a liquid level adjusting pipe 16, the outside of the liquid level adjusting pipe 16 is fixedly sleeved with a liquid level adjusting outer pipe 15, and the connecting position of the water communication pipe 14 and the liquid level adjusting pipe 16 is located at the bottom end inside the liquid level adjusting outer pipe 15.

[0023] The right bottom of the liquid level adjusting outer pipe 15 is communicated with a water phase outlet 17, the top right side of the liquid level adjusting pipe 16 is fixedly communicated with a liquid level adjusting port 19, and the bottom of the inner cylinder 4 is surrounded by equidistantly arranged triangular bottom liquid outlets 18.

[0024] Working principle: the rare earth industry raffinate oil removal device, the oil-containing raffinate to be treated enters into the inside of the filter membrane assembly 8 through the liquid inlet 11, filters out the impurities with large particles in the raffinate, and the filtered raffinate penetrates into the cavity between the filter membrane assembly 8 and the inner filter cylinder 5 through the membrane surface. With continuous liquid filtration, the liquid level of the inner filter cylinder 5 gradually rises. When the liquid level rises to the position of each liquid outlet of the inner filter cylinder 5, the filtered liquid flows into the cavity between the inner cylinder 4 and the inner filter cylinder 5 from the liquid outlet a 9 and the liquid outlet b 10. With the continuous inflow of the filtered liquid, the cavity between the outer cylinder 1 and the inner cylinder 4 is filled through the bottom liquid outlet 18. The oil-containing raffinate continuously rises. Due to the density difference between oil and water, the oil floating on the water flows into the cavity between the outer cylinder 1 and the inner cylinder 4 through the oil passing port a 6 and the oil passing port b 7. With the continuous rise of the liquid level, the oil rises to the position of the oil separation membrane plate 2. The oil separation membrane plate 2 allows oil to pass through but the water phase cannot pass through. With the increasing of the oil, the oil floating on the water phase will flow out from the top oil phase outlet 3. In the running, the discharge port 13 is closed. In the test and maintenance, the discharge port 13 can be opened to discharge the liquid in the whole device. The water phase at the bottom enters into the water communication pipe 14 through the discharge port 13, and then enters into the liquid level adjusting pipe 16 upwards. The water phase enters into the cavity of the liquid level adjusting outer pipe 15 through the liquid level adjusting port 19, and flows out from the water phase outlet 17. The liquid level adjusting port 19 and the liquid level adjusting outer pipe 15 can adjust the height of the liquid level. The position of the liquid level adjusting port 19 can be adjusted on the liquid level adjusting pipe 16. According to the proportion of the oil phase and the water phase, in the case of more oil and less water, the position of the liquid level adjusting port 19 is adjusted downwards. In the case of less oil and more water, the liquid level adjusting port 19 can be adjusted upwards. The whole treatment process of the device can realize the filtration of the raffinate and the separation of the oil phase and the water phase, and the oil in the raffinate is removed.

[0025] Finally, it should be noted that: the above only for the preferred embodiments of the present application, and is not intended to limit the present application, although the foregoing embodiments of the present application have been described in detail, for the skilled in the art, it still can be modified, or for the equivalent replacement of part of the technical features of the technical solutions recorded in the foregoing embodiments. Any modification, equivalent replacement, improvement, etc. made within the spirit and principles of the present application, shall be included within the scope of the present application.
