Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of wastewater treatment technology, specifically to a device for treating biodiesel wastewater. Background Technology

[0002] Biodiesel is generally produced using waste oils (gutter oil, swill oil, acidified oil, etc.) as raw materials. The wastewater discharged during the production process mainly comes from the wastewater separated from the heating and acid treatment of waste oils. The oil wastewater has a high concentration of organic matter and is highly polluting. If it is discharged into natural water bodies without treatment, it will affect the reoxygenation of the water and its natural evolution process, harm the aquatic ecosystem, and seriously pollute the environment.

[0003] Oily wastewater not only includes floating oil on the surface of the wastewater, but also some small oil particles dispersed in the wastewater. Due to their small particle size, they are not easy to handle, resulting in incomplete wastewater treatment. After discharge, they will still cause harm to the natural environment. To address this, we have designed a biodiesel wastewater treatment device. Utility Model Content

[0004] The purpose of this invention is to address the shortcomings of existing technologies by proposing a biodiesel wastewater treatment device.

[0005] To achieve the above objectives, this utility model provides the following technical solution: a biodiesel wastewater treatment device, comprising a separation tank, a collection tank fixedly fitted at the bottom of the outer surface of the separation tank, an aerator on the left side of the collection tank, the aerator's inflation pipe being connected to the bottom of the outer surface of the separation tank, an oil float collector on the left side of the aerator, an inlet pipe, a motor, and a feed pipe fixedly installed from left to right on the upper surface of the separation tank, the output end of the motor penetrating into the inner cavity of the separation tank and fixedly installed with a stirring frame, an arc-shaped groove on the outer surface of the collection tank, a fixing plate fixedly installed on the left and right sides of the inner cavity of the collection tank at the arc-shaped groove, a collection box placed on the upper surface of the fixing plate, a filter screen fixedly installed at the bottom of the inner cavity of the collection box, a clean water tank on the right side of the collection tank, and a water pump between the clean water tank and the collection tank.

[0006] Preferably, the adsorption component of the oil spill collector is fixedly installed at the top of the inner cavity of the separation tank, and the adsorption component is fixedly connected to the recovery machine through an oil suction pipe.

[0007] Preferably, fixing strips are fixedly installed on both the left and right sides of the inner cavity of the clean water tank, and a sliding groove is provided on the front surface of the fixing strip, and a limiting strip is provided in the sliding groove.

[0008] Preferably, an installation frame is fixedly installed on one side corresponding to the limiting strip, the front end of the installation frame penetrates the clean water tank, and there are two installation frames. An activated carbon adsorption layer is fixedly installed in the upper installation frame, and a quartz sand filter layer is fixedly installed in the lower installation frame. A water outlet pipe is fixedly installed at the bottom of the right surface of the clean water tank.

[0009] Preferably, the water pump has a suction pipe fixedly installed at its inlet, the left end of which is connected to the collection tank, and a drain pipe fixedly installed at its outlet, the end of which is connected to the upper surface of the clean water tank.

A sealing plug is inserted into the top of the feed pipe, and a one-way valve is fixedly installed on the outer surface of the air inflator.

[0011] Compared with the prior art, the beneficial effects of this utility model are as follows:

[0012] In the application of this invention, wastewater is discharged into a separation tank. After settling, floating oil rises to the surface of the wastewater and is collected by an oil flotation machine. Once the surface oil is collected, an aerator is activated to inflate the bottom of the wastewater, generating bubbles that float upwards, carrying most of the dispersed oil to the surface. This is then collected a second time by the oil flotation machine. Flocculant is then added to the separation tank through a feed pipe. A motor is started to rotate the stirring rack, causing the dispersed and dissolved oils to react with the flocculant. The wastewater is then discharged into a collection tank, where the flocculent material is filtered through a filter screen. The filtered wastewater is then pumped into a clear water tank, where it passes through an activated carbon adsorption layer and a quartz sand filter layer for further filtration. Therefore, this invention has a simple structure, integrates various processes, is easy to operate, effectively treats various oils in wastewater, has high work efficiency, and is convenient for operators.
