Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of water treatment technology, specifically to a clarification tank for treating boiler feedwater in power plants. Background Technology

[0002] Boiler feedwater treatment is a crucial aspect of power plant production systems, impacting not only the safe and economical operation of the boiler but also the company's operating costs and energy efficiency. Substandard water quality can lead to scaling and corrosion in the boiler and turbine. Therefore, feedwater must undergo rigorous desalination, hardness, fluoride, and silica removal treatments before being used in the boiler. Furthermore, the appropriate treatment process should be selected based on the water's source and characteristics. Inappropriate treatment methods can increase initial investment and operating costs, and in severe cases, disrupt the normal operation of the power plant.

[0003] Makeup water needs to be filtered, desalinated, and treated before being used in boilers. Currently, boiler makeup water treatment often employs mechanical filtration combined with membrane treatment. Mechanical accelerated clarification tanks integrate mixing, reaction, and separation processes, resulting in a large water production per unit area and high treatment efficiency. However, during the filtration process, impurities in the makeup water adhere to the surface of the mechanical filter plates, requiring frequent replacement and cleaning of the filter plates, thus affecting the treatment efficiency of the makeup water.
