Detailed Implementation

[0019] The present invention will be further described below with reference to the accompanying drawings and embodiments.

[0020] This utility model relates to a device for removing conventional and novel antibiotic pollutants from industrial wastewater treatment plants, such as... Figure 1As shown, the system includes an equalization tank 1, a flotation tank 2, an aerobic treatment tank 3, and an adsorption tank 4 arranged in sequence. The inner cavity of the equalization tank 1 is divided into an inlet chamber 5 and a sedimentation chamber 6 by a vertical partition. The sedimentation chamber 6 is connected to the flotation tank 2. The flotation tank 2 is equipped with a dosing zone 7 and a flotation zone 8. The sedimentation chamber 6 is connected to the dosing zone 7. A dosing mechanism 9 is installed above the dosing zone 7, and a flotation mechanism 10 is installed at the bottom of the flotation zone 8. The dosing zone 7 is connected to the aerobic treatment tank 3, and a microbial packing material 11 is installed in the aerobic treatment tank 3. The adsorption tank 4 is equipped with a sedimentation zone 12, a filtration zone 13, and an adsorption zone 14 arranged in sequence. The sedimentation zone 12 is connected to the aerobic treatment tank 3. Filter media 15 is installed in the filtration zone 13, and an adsorption assembly is installed in the adsorption zone 14. An outlet 16 is installed at the top of the adsorption zone 14.

[0021] The equalization tank is used to regulate the effluent flow rate and ensure the stable operation of the entire system. The lower end of the baffle is connected to the bottom of the equalization tank 1, while the upper end of the baffle is lower than the water level in the equalization tank 1, allowing water in the inlet chamber 5 to flow into the sedimentation chamber 6 from above the baffle. The inlet chamber 5 is connected to the drainage pipe of the industrial wastewater treatment plant, and the treated wastewater is discharged into the bottom of the inlet chamber 5. The sedimentation chamber 6 is used to settle the water and remove large particulate impurities.

[0022] The dissolved air flotation (DAF) tank 2 is used to remove residual suspended solids in the water, such as oil and light suspended solids. Specifically, the water discharged from the sedimentation chamber 6 first enters the dosing zone 7, where the dosing mechanism 9 adds flocculant to the water. The suspended solids in the water can adhere to the flocculant. The water after dosing flows to the DAF zone 8, where the DAF mechanism 10 generates a large number of microbubbles at the bottom. These microbubbles carry the flocculant and suspended solids upwards to the surface, forming scum. After DAF treatment, residual suspended solids, oils, large molecular organic matter, pigments, etc., in the water are further removed, reducing the concentration of pollutants in the water. The DAF mechanism 10 can use existing technology.

[0023] In the flotation tank 2, air is introduced into the water to generate microbubbles, which increases the dissolved oxygen content in the water, favoring the survival of aerobic microorganisms. Therefore, the water treated by flotation is introduced into the aerobic treatment tank 3, where microbial packing material 11 is added to provide a habitat for aerobic microorganisms and promote their reproduction. Aerobic microorganisms can decompose some organic compounds, nitrogen, phosphorus, and other pollutants.

[0024] After sedimentation, flotation, and aerobic treatment, the concentration of pollutants in the water is reduced. The remaining pollutants are mainly recalcitrant antibiotics, organic pollutants, and heavy metal ions. Therefore, adsorption treatment is used to remove the remaining pollutants. Sludge is generated in the aerobic treatment tank 3, and it carries the sludge into the adsorption tank 4. Therefore, a sedimentation zone 12 is set up in the adsorption tank 4. The water from the aerobic treatment tank 3 first enters the sedimentation zone 12. After sedimentation, the sludge in the water settles to the bottom of the sedimentation zone 12. Then, the water is further filtered by the filter media 15 in the filtration zone 13 to remove residual sludge and other particulate matter. Finally, in the adsorption zone 14, adsorption components adsorb residual antibiotics, drugs, heavy metals, and other components. After adsorption treatment, the water can be discharged through the outlet 16.

[0025] The dosing mechanism 9 can adopt existing technology. However, to improve the uniformity of dosing, the dosing mechanism 9 of this invention... Figure 2 As shown, the device includes a storage chamber 91 for storing flocculant. Existing flocculant can be used. The storage chamber 91 can be frustum-shaped, with its upper inner diameter larger than its lower inner diameter. A discharge port is located at the bottom of the storage chamber 91, and a vertical rotating shaft 92 is installed inside the discharge port. The upper end of the rotating shaft 92 extends upwards to the upper part of the storage chamber 91. A spiral conveying plate 93 is installed on the outer wall of the rotating shaft 92, with a clearance fit between the spiral conveying plate 93 and the inner wall of the discharge port. A rotation drive mechanism 94 is located at the upper end of the rotating shaft 92, which drives the rotating shaft 92 and the spiral conveying plate 93 to rotate synchronously. A receiving trough 95 is located below the discharge port, allowing the flocculant discharged from the discharge port to fall into the receiving trough 95. The receiving trough 95 can be a circular trough with a sealed bottom and an open top. The receiving trough 95 is fixedly connected to the lower end of the rotating shaft 92. When the rotating shaft 92 rotates, it drives the receiving trough 95 to rotate synchronously. An inclined dosing pipe 96 is fixedly installed at the bottom of the receiving trough 95. The bottom of the dosing pipe 96 has multiple evenly distributed dosing holes. There can be one or more dosing pipes 96. The flocculant in the receiving trough 95 can enter the dosing pipe 96 and slide downwards along the dosing pipe 96. During the sliding process, the flocculant falls into the water through each dosing hole.

[0026] Flocculants are typically in powder form. The particles in powder have friction, resulting in poor flowability and making it difficult to ensure uniform feeding. In this invention, a rotating shaft 92 and a spiral conveyor 93 are used. A rotation drive mechanism 94 drives the shaft 92 and the spiral conveyor 93 to rotate. When the spiral conveyor 93 rotates, it disturbs the surrounding powder, causing it to flow and enter the discharge port. The powder in the discharge port moves downwards under the action of the spiral conveyor 93 and falls into the receiving trough 95, then into the dosing pipe 96. The flocculant in the dosing pipe 96 slides downwards and falls into the water through the dosing hole. Since the dosing pipe 96 and the receiving trough 95 also rotate with the rotating shaft 92, uniform dosing within a certain range can be achieved.

[0027] In this utility model, the rotation drive mechanism 94 is a geared motor.

[0028] The filter media 15 can be made of various existing materials with filtration functions. Preferably, the filter media 15 includes multiple granular filter layers. Granular filter layers are low in cost and have good filtration effect. Each granular filter layer is set in a cuboid mesh box, so that each granular filter layer can be installed and removed independently, facilitating the replacement of the filter media 15 later.

[0029] The particulate filter layer comprises a pebble layer, a gravel layer, and a river sand layer arranged sequentially from the sedimentation zone 12 to the adsorption zone 14. The particle size of the pebble layer, gravel layer, and river sand layer decreases sequentially. Multiple filtrations of water using particulate filter media of different sizes ensure filtration efficiency, and the gaps in the filter media provide space for microorganisms to thrive, further promoting pollutant removal.

[0030] The microbial packing material 11 can be made using existing technology. In this invention, the microbial packing material 11 is a suspended braided packing material. The braided packing material is lightweight and easy to install and replace.

[0031] In this invention, there are multiple adsorption components, and each adsorption component includes a positioning frame 17. Water-permeable positioning layers 18 are provided on both sides of the positioning frame 17. The positioning frame 17 and the water-permeable positioning layers 18 form an adsorption cavity, and an adsorbent layer 19 is disposed within the adsorption cavity. The positioning frame 17 can be a high-strength plastic frame or a metal frame, specifically a rectangular frame. The water-permeable positioning layer 18 can be made of fiber cloth or wire mesh, used to limit the position of the adsorbent. The adsorbent layer 19 can adsorb residual antibiotics, organic matter, heavy metals, pigments, etc., in the water, specifically using granular activated carbon as the adsorbent.

[0032] To facilitate the assembly and disassembly of the adsorption components, the two sides of the positioning frame 17 are inserted into the side walls of the adsorption tank 4. Slots are provided on the two side walls of the adsorption tank 4, and the two sides of the positioning frame 17 can be inserted into the slots. When the adsorbent layer 19 reaches saturation, the adsorption components can be quickly removed.

[0033] The above description is merely a preferred embodiment of this utility model and is not intended to limit the utility model. Various modifications and variations can be made to this utility model by those skilled in the art. Any modifications, equivalent substitutions, improvements, etc., made within the spirit and principles of this utility model should be included within the protection scope of this utility model.
