[0023] Reference Figure 1As shown, a wastewater treatment system for tunnel construction includes: a pre-sedimentation tank 1, an equalization tank 2 directly connected to the pre-sedimentation tank 1, a clear water tank 5 and a sludge tank 6 located on one side of the equalization tank 2, a neutralization reaction tank 3, a purification reactor 4, and a plate and frame filter press 7; the equalization tank 2 and the inlet of the purification reactor 4 are connected by a pipeline, the outlet of the purification reactor 4 and the inlet of the neutralization reaction tank 3 are connected by a pipeline, the sludge outlet of the purification reactor 4 and the sludge tank 6 are connected by a pipeline, the outlet of the neutralization reaction tank 3 and the clear water tank 5 are connected by a pipeline, the sludge tank 6 and the inlet of the plate and frame filter press 7 are connected by a pipeline, and the outlet of the plate and frame filter press 7 and the equalization tank 2 are connected by a pipeline; the wastewater in the equalization tank 2 is pumped into the neutralization reaction tank 3 by a wastewater lift pump; the sludge in the sludge tank 6 is pumped into the plate and frame filter press 7 by a sludge pump, and the water in the outlet of the plate and frame filter press 7 is pumped back to the equalization tank 2. Pre-sedimentation tank 1 is used to initially remove large particulate suspended solids from the wastewater, reducing the load on subsequent treatment equipment through gravity settling. Equalization tank 2 homogenizes the wastewater quality and quantity, providing a stable flow rate and component input for subsequent neutralization treatment. Purification reactor 4 efficiently removes residual suspended solids and impurities from the wastewater. Neutralization reaction tank 3 introduces CO2 gas to neutralize highly alkaline substances in the wastewater, adjusting the pH value to a suitable range, significantly reducing safety hazards caused by corrosion and operational risks in traditional acid treatment technologies. Clear water tank 5 is used to store the purified wastewater. The effluent can be used for greening irrigation, site dust spraying, or discharged into surface water bodies in compliance with standards. The sludge tank 6 and the plate and frame filter press 7 are responsible for treating the sludge generated by the system. The sludge is transported to the filter press by a mud pump. The sludge cake after pressing is collected and disposed of safely to avoid secondary pollution. The effluent from the plate and frame filter press 7 is returned to the equalization tank 2. In this embodiment, a chemical dosing and control room 9 is also provided to store chemicals and control the operation of pipe valves and water pumps. In this embodiment, the pre-sedimentation tank 1, equalization tank 2, clear water tank 5, and sludge tank 6 are all excavated above and below the ground foundation 11.
[0024] The wastewater treatment process in this embodiment is as follows: Wastewater undergoes gravity sedimentation in the pre-sedimentation tank 1, and the supernatant of the wastewater flows into the equalization tank 2. The equalization tank 2 buffers the supernatant and pumps it into the inlet of the neutralization reaction tank 3. The neutralization reaction tank 3 introduces CO2 gas to neutralize the highly alkaline substances in the wastewater. The CO2 is provided by the CO2 storage tank and then flows from the outlet of the neutralization reaction tank 3 into the inlet of the purification reactor 4. The purification reactor 4 can efficiently remove residual suspended solids and impurities in the wastewater, separating the clean water from the impurities. The impurities are pumped into the sludge tank 6 by a mud pump, and the clean water is pumped into the clean water tank 5. The sludge in the sludge tank 6 is pumped into the plate and frame filter press 7 for filtration. The dried sludge cake is collected and disposed of safely.
[0025] The equalization tank 2 buffers the supernatant and pumps it into the inlet of the purification reactor 4. The purification reactor 4 can efficiently remove residual suspended solids and impurities from the wastewater, separating the wastewater from the impurities. The impurities are pumped into the sludge tank 6 via a mud pump, while the wastewater is pumped into the inlet of the neutralization reaction tank 3. The neutralization reaction tank 3 introduces CO2 gas to neutralize the highly alkaline substances in the wastewater. The CO2 is provided by a CO2 storage tank. The clean water is pumped from the outlet of the neutralization reaction tank 3 into the clean water tank 5. The sludge in the sludge tank 6 is pumped into the plate and frame filter press 7 for filtration. The dried sludge cake is collected and disposed of safely.
[0026] In this embodiment, the purification reactor 4 is a commercially available HG high-efficiency purification reactor, model HGJS-500, and the neutralization reaction tank 3 is a commercially available high-alkalinity wastewater treatment device, model HG-GXCQ250. The HG high-efficiency purification reactor used in this embodiment is a high-efficiency integrated coagulation and sedimentation device, divided into four parts: a coagulation zone, a flocculation zone, a pre-sedimentation zone, and an inclined plate sedimentation tank. First, coagulant is added to the raw water, and the coagulant is rapidly mixed with the raw water by the stirring action of the agitator. Then, the water enters the flocculation tank, where more flocculant is added. Under the stirring action of the agitator in the tank, suspended solids in the water are sheared, reforming into larger, easily settling flocs. The water then enters the sedimentation tank, which is divided into a pre-sedimentation zone and an inclined plate sedimentation zone. In the pre-sedimentation zone, easily settling flocs settle rapidly, while small flocs that do not settle quickly are captured by the inclined plates. The sediment exits through the sludge outlet, and then the high-quality effluent is collected through the water collection trough at the top of the tank and discharged through the water outlet to the neutralization reaction tank 3. The high-alkalinity wastewater treatment device used in this embodiment employs carbon dioxide dissolved in the wastewater through a jet device to form carbonic acid, neutralizing the high-alkalinity wastewater. CO2 replaces inorganic acids such as hydrochloric acid and sulfuric acid, making it more environmentally friendly. Furthermore, carbon dioxide is compressible and liquefiable, facilitating transportation and storage. The outlet of the neutralization reaction tank 3 is connected to the clear water tank 5, which can serve as a temporary storage tank for reclaimed water and also as a disinfection contact tank. The effluent from the clear water tank 5 can be reused or discharged in compliance with standards.

A sedimentation tank 102 is provided below the side of the pre-sedimentation tank 1 near the buffer zone 101. A mud pump is provided in the sedimentation tank 102. The mud in the sedimentation tank 102 is pumped into the sludge tank 6 through the mud pump. The buffer zone 101 and the pre-sedimentation tank 1 are connected through 224 sedimentation through holes 106 arranged at equal intervals. The sedimentation through holes 106 make the water flow more uniform and avoid the water flow causing turbulence and reducing the sedimentation efficiency of the pre-sedimentation tank 1.
[0028] Preferably, in this embodiment, the bottom of the pre-sedimentation tank 1 is an inclined surface, and the end of the inclined surface is connected to the top of the sedimentation tank 102, which facilitates the entry of sediments into the sedimentation tank 102.
[0029] like Figure 4 As shown, in this embodiment, the pre-sedimentation tank 1 and the equalization tank 2 are connected by an equalization through hole 201. A right-angle baffle 202 is provided on the side of the through hole near the pre-sedimentation tank 1. The right-angle baffle 202 can control the liquid level depth entering the equalization through hole 201, so that the supernatant can be passed to the equalization tank 2.
[0030] Preferably, in this embodiment, a pump pit 10 is provided on one side of the regulating tank 2, the bottom surface of the regulating tank 2 is a slope, and the end of the slope is connected to the top of the pump pit 10.
[0031] As a preferred embodiment, in this embodiment, the clear water tank 5 is also connected to the water storage tank 8 through a pipe. A pump pit 10 is provided on one side of the clear water tank 5. The bottom surface of the clear water tank 5 is a slope, and the end of the slope is connected to the top of the pump pit 10.
