Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This utility model relates to the field of environmental protection technology, specifically to an open-type degassing membrane element. Background Technology
[0002] NH4 + Removal from wastewater is a challenge. After the CN content is consumed in the biochemical reaction, the remaining NH4... + Even reverse osmosis has a low removal rate. The traditional method is to add alkali to the wastewater to reduce NH4+. + The NH3 is converted into gaseous NH3, which is then removed using ammonia stripping or stripping techniques. NH4 is removed from water using a degassing membrane. + It has become a new application technology. Its degassing membrane structure is as follows: Figure 1 As shown.
[0003] The degassing membrane element has a hollow fiber column structure, with the hollow fiber membrane fibers inside the element and a plastic outer shell. There are two openings on the end cap. The water inlet / outlet is on the end face, and the acid inlet / outlet is on the side. Raw water enters from one end face, flows into the membrane shell cavity, and after making full contact with the membrane fibers, the deammoniation solution flows out from the other end face. Acid flows in from one side inlet, with sulfuric acid flowing inside the membrane fibers. Ammonia gas in the raw water permeates through the membrane, reaches the inside of the membrane fibers, and combines with sulfuric acid to form ammonium sulfate, which then flows out from the other side outlet.
[0004] However, this degassing membrane element has the following disadvantages: 1. Due to the limitation of the element shell, the area of a single membrane is limited, i.e., the treatment capacity is limited. 2. The flow channel space is small, making it prone to fouling, and requiring high standards for raw water pretreatment. 3. Each membrane requires a matching membrane shell, resulting in high manufacturing costs. 4. Due to its sealed structure, if a membrane fiber breaks, it cannot be repaired, and the entire membrane loses its degassing function.
[0005] In view of this, this application proposes an open-structure degassing membrane element without a shell to solve the above problems. Utility Model Content
[0006] The purpose of this invention is to solve at least one of the technical problems existing in the prior art and to provide an open degassing membrane element.
[0007] To achieve the above objectives, the technical solution adopted by this utility model is as follows: An open-type degassing membrane element includes a frame, on which a plurality of degassing membrane assembly components are installed. Each degassing membrane assembly includes an acid inlet secondary pipe and an acid outlet secondary pipe. Degassing membrane fibers are installed between the acid inlet secondary pipe and the acid outlet secondary pipe. An acid inlet main pipe is connected to the acid inlet secondary pipe, and an acid outlet main pipe is connected to the acid outlet secondary pipe. The acid inlet main pipe and the acid outlet main pipe are respectively located outside the frame. An aeration pipe is provided at the bottom of the frame.
[0008] Furthermore, the degassed membrane filaments are hollow.
[0009] Furthermore, the degassed membrane filaments are made of hydrophobic PP or hydrophobic PVDF material.
[0010] Furthermore, the main acid inlet pipe is located below the frame.
[0011] Furthermore, the acid outlet main pipe is located above the frame and is arranged opposite to the acid inlet main pipe.
[0012] Furthermore, the other ends of both the acid inlet secondary pipe and the acid outlet secondary pipe are connected to the frame.
[0013] Furthermore, the main acid inlet pipe, the main acid outlet pipe, the secondary acid inlet pipe, and the secondary acid outlet pipe are all made of corrosion-resistant plastic material.
[0014] Compared with the prior art, the technical solution of this application has the following beneficial effects:
[0015] 1. This application utilizes a frame to install several degassing membrane assembly components, each including an acid inlet secondary pipe and an acid outlet secondary pipe. Degassing membrane fibers are installed between the acid inlet secondary pipe and the acid outlet secondary pipe. An acid inlet main pipe is connected to the acid inlet secondary pipe, and an acid outlet main pipe is connected to the acid outlet secondary pipe. The acid inlet main pipe and the acid outlet main pipe are respectively located outside the frame. An aeration pipe is provided at the bottom of the frame. This allows the degassing membrane element to be directly immersed in the wastewater tank for degassing treatment without an outer shell, reducing the equipment's footprint and energy consumption.
[0016] 2. The membrane array structure of this application is simple, easy to install and replace, and has a wide range of adjustable throughput. The throughput can be increased by increasing the number of components used. Since no outer shell is required, the replacement cost is relatively low in the future, and it is less prone to fouling. Even if some membrane fibers are damaged, they can be directly repaired. Attached Figure Description

[0022] Reference Figures 2-3 As shown in the preferred embodiment of this utility model, an open-type degassing membrane element includes a frame 6. A plurality of degassing membrane assembly units are installed on the frame 6. Each degassing membrane assembly includes an acid inlet secondary pipe 3 and an acid outlet secondary pipe 1. Degassing membrane fibers 2 are installed between the acid inlet secondary pipe 3 and the acid outlet secondary pipe 1. An acid inlet main pipe 7 is connected to the acid inlet secondary pipe 3, and an acid outlet main pipe 5 is connected to the acid outlet secondary pipe 1. The acid inlet main pipe 7 and the acid outlet main pipe 5 are respectively located outside the frame 6. An aeration pipe 4 is provided at the bottom of the frame 1. This allows the degassing membrane element to be directly immersed in the wastewater tank for degassing treatment without an outer shell, reducing the equipment's footprint and energy consumption.
[0023] As a preferred embodiment of this utility model, it may also have the following additional technical features: the degassing membrane filament 2 is made of hydrophobic PP or hydrophobic PVDF material to form a hollow structure, thereby facilitating the removal of ammonia nitrogen.
[0024] In this embodiment, the acid inlet main pipe 7 is located below the frame 6; the acid outlet main pipe 5 is located above the frame 6 and is arranged opposite to the acid inlet main pipe 7. This achieves the removal of ammonia nitrogen from wastewater.
[0025] In this embodiment, the other ends of both the acid inlet secondary pipe 3 and the acid outlet secondary pipe 1 are connected to the frame 1. This enhances the stability of the degassing membrane assembly.
[0026] In this embodiment, the main acid inlet pipe 7, the main acid outlet pipe 8, the secondary acid inlet pipe 3, and the secondary acid outlet pipe 1 are all made of corrosion-resistant plastic. This prevents corrosion of the pipes.

These modules can be quickly disassembled or added according to the required treatment capacity. The acid inlet and outlet pipes of the membrane assembly are connected to the corresponding main pipes, and an aeration pipe 4 is installed at the bottom of the frame, thus forming an open degassing membrane element. This degassing membrane element's main pipe is connected to an external pipe, allowing it to be placed in the wastewater tank requiring ammonia removal for ammonia nitrogen removal. If a membrane fiber in a particular membrane assembly is found to be broken, it can be repaired individually.
