Description
Technical Field
[0001] This utility model relates to the field of wastewater treatment technology, specifically to a phosphorus crystal recovery device. Background Technology
[0002] Recovering phosphorus from wastewater and converting it into phosphate fertilizer reduces phosphorus emissions from wastewater and protects the aquatic environment.
[0003] Phosphorus in the liquid phase is currently mainly recovered and utilized through crystallization. Orthophosphate (PO4) in the liquid phase... 3- Phosphorus crystallizes and precipitates in the form of phosphate minerals, primarily in the forms of struvite (magnesium ammonium phosphate, MAP) and hydroxyapatite (HAP). The resulting products have low heavy metal content and can be directly applied in agriculture, thus realizing the resource utilization of phosphorus. Struvite crystallization is currently the most widely researched and applied phosphorus recovery technology because it can simultaneously recover phosphorus and ammonia nitrogen from the liquid phase.
[0004] The reactor is the core device in the phosphorus crystallization recovery process. The type and design of the reactor directly affect the purity of the product. At present, stirred crystallization reactors are mostly used to synthesize magnesium ammonium phosphate. However, they have disadvantages such as low purity of synthesized products and more impurities. In addition, the crystal particles formed are small in size, which adversely affects the efficiency of phosphorus recovery.
[0005] In summary, there is an urgent need for a device with a simplified structure that facilitates phosphorus recovery to solve the problems existing in the current technology. Utility Model Content
[0006] The purpose of this invention is to provide a phosphorus crystallization recovery device with a simplified structure that facilitates phosphorus recovery. The device includes an outer shell, a middle shell, an inner shell, an inlet pipe, a outlet pipe, a discharge port, a flow-pushing and stirring assembly, a baffle vortex assembly, a modular vortex assembly, and an inclined plate assembly. The outer shell, middle shell, and inner shell are nested together to form a circulating flow channel and a second water flow upward channel, which are formed by a combination of a first water flow upward channel and a water flow downward channel. The stirring blades and baffle vortex assembly in the flow-pushing and stirring assembly are arranged from top to bottom in the first water flow upward channel, combined with the modular vortex assembly in the water flow downward channel, constituting a mechanical stirring and mixing process for crystallization and water recovery. The vortex crystallization composite system, due to its unique structure, achieves hydraulic classification during operation, ensuring thorough mixing of materials and fluidizing crystal particles. It achieves self-induced crystallization without the need for external seed crystals, resulting in larger crystal particle sizes compared to traditional stirred crystallization. The first upward and downward water flow channels form a circulating flow channel that automatically sorts crystal particles. Larger particles are automatically separated from the circulating water flow and discharged into the crystal aggregation zone under gravity, while smaller particles continue to crystallize in the circulating water channel. The crystal particles collected in the aggregation zone are larger and purer than those in traditional stirred crystallization, achieving highly efficient phosphorus recovery. An inclined plate assembly is installed in the second upward water flow channel to perform secondary separation of fine crystalline particles entrained in the water flow, further improving the recovery efficiency of phosphorus crystal particles.

The opening at the bottom of the first water flow rising channel is located in the crystal aggregation region at the bottom of the outer shell, and a micro-nano aeration disc is provided below it, so that small crystal particles in the crystal aggregation region can act as seed crystals and enter the water flow circulation channel with the water flow, providing ready-made nucleation sites for the solution, reducing the critical supersaturation required for the system to form new crystal nuclei, thereby reducing the probability of spontaneous nucleation (forming a large number of tiny crystals), and suppressing the formation of irregular dendritic or needle-like crystals, promoting the formation of more dense and uniform prismatic or plate-like large crystal particles. In this embodiment, the discharge port 7 is provided with a compressed air pipe 14 connected to an external compressed air source, which is used to clear the discharge port with compressed air when it is blocked.
[0043] The specific application of the technical solution of this utility model is as follows:
[0044] Wastewater containing orthophosphate is mixed with reagents (magnesium salts, ammonium salts, and alkalis when struvite crystallization is used) and then enters the first water flow upward channel A through the inlet pipe 5 (located above the stirring blades 8.3). The stirring power source 8.1 is started, driving the stirring shaft 8.2 and the stirring blades 8.3 on it to rotate, generating an upward thrust to stir and mix the liquid and suspended particles in the first water flow upward channel A, so that the liquid mixture circulates in the lower section of the first water flow upward channel A, the upper section of the first water flow upward channel A, and the water flow downward channel B.
[0045] Under the mechanical stirring conditions of the propagating agitator 8, the orthophosphate in the influent and the crystal-forming ions (magnesium ions and ammonium ions) in the reagent come into contact and mix to form tiny magnesium ammonium phosphate crystals (crystal nuclei). These tiny crystals circulate with the water flow in the lower section of the first upward water flow channel A, the upper section of the first upward water flow channel A, and the downward water flow channel B. When passing through the baffle vortex assembly 9 and the modular vortex assembly 10, the crystal-forming ions in the wastewater further come into contact and mix under the action of a large number of micro-vortices generated by the baffle vortex assembly 9 and the modular vortex assembly 10, causing the tiny crystal particles to fluidize. Under the action of the micro-vortices, the tiny crystals and the crystal nuclei and crystal-forming ions collide and contact fully, resulting in secondary nucleation. Self-induced crystallization is achieved without the need for external seed crystals. The particle size of the crystals gradually increases. When the particle size and mass increase to a certain extent, under the action of gravity, the large crystal particles gradually detach automatically from the circulating water flow and flow out from the lower opening of the fourth receiving chamber, falling into the crystal aggregation zone D. After crystallization, the water flow out from the lower opening of the fourth receiving chamber and enters the second water flow rising channel C. The fine crystal particles carried in the water flow undergo further solid-liquid separation under the action of gravity and the inclined plate assembly 11. After sedimentation, the crystal particles slide down to the crystal aggregation zone D under the action of gravity. The supernatant after sedimentation flows upward through the second water flow rising channel C and collects in the water collection tank 4, and is discharged from the phosphorus crystallization recovery device through the drain pipe 6. The struvite crystals accumulated in the crystal aggregation zone D are periodically discharged through the discharge port 7.
[0046] The technical solution of this embodiment has the following beneficial effects:
[0047] 1. The phosphorus crystallization recovery device of this embodiment adopts an outer shell, a middle shell, and an inner shell arranged from the outside to the inside to form a first water flow upward channel, a water flow downward channel, and a second water flow upward channel. In the first water flow upward channel, a push-flow stirring component and a baffle vortex component are arranged from top to bottom. In the water flow downward channel, a modular vortex component is arranged. The mechanical stirring component and the vortex component installed in the circulation channel constitute a mechanical stirring mixing crystallization + hydraulic vortex crystallization composite system. Due to its special structure, hydraulic classification is realized in the water flow downward channel during operation, so that the solution is fully mixed with materials and the crystal particles are fluidized. Self-induced crystallization is achieved without the addition of external crystal seeds, and the particle size of the crystal particles is larger than that of traditional stirring crystallization.
[0048] 2. In this embodiment, the water circulation channel formed by the combination of the middle shell and the inner shell in the phosphorus crystallization recovery device can automatically sort crystal particles. Larger particles will automatically detach from the circulating water and enter the crystal aggregation zone under the action of gravity, while smaller particles will continue to crystallize in the water circulation channel. When the size and mass reach a certain level, they will automatically detach from the circulating water and enter the crystal aggregation zone under the action of gravity. The crystal particles collected in the crystal aggregation zone are larger in size and have higher purity than those collected by traditional stirring crystallization.
[0049] 3. In this embodiment, the opening at the bottom of the first water flow rising channel is located in the crystal aggregation area at the bottom of the outer shell and a micro-nano aeration disc is provided below it. This allows small crystal particles in the crystal aggregation area to act as seed crystals and enter the water flow circulation channel with the water flow, providing ready-made nucleation sites for the solution. This reduces the critical supersaturation required for the system to form new crystal nuclei, thereby reducing the probability of spontaneous nucleation (forming a large number of tiny crystals) and suppressing the formation of irregular dendritic or needle-like crystals, promoting the formation of more dense and uniform prismatic or plate-like large crystal particles.

Various modifications and variations can be made to this utility model by those skilled in the art.
