Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of planktonic biofilm filters, and more particularly to a compact planktonic biofilm filter. Background Technology

[0002] In the wave of industrialization and urbanization, the amount of sewage discharged has increased dramatically, the water quality has become increasingly complex, and the water pollution situation is severe. This has created an urgent need for innovation in sewage treatment technology. At that time, traditional sewage treatment processes exposed many shortcomings. For example, the activated sludge process requires aeration tanks and sedimentation tanks that occupy a large area, which is extremely limited in cities where land is scarce. In addition, the sludge production is high, and the subsequent treatment costs are high. While ordinary biological filters have the advantages of biological treatment, their treatment efficiency is difficult to meet the ever-increasing demand for sewage.

[0003] In a traditional planar biofilm filter, wastewater flows into the filter from the inlet. The filter contains specific filter media on which microorganisms attach and grow, forming a biofilm. As the wastewater flows through the biofilm, pollutants such as organic matter and nutrients like nitrogen and phosphorus diffuse through the liquid phase to the surface and interior of the biofilm. The abundant microorganisms on the biofilm then perform a series of biochemical reactions, including adsorption and oxidation, to decompose organic matter into carbon dioxide and water, and convert ammonia nitrogen into nitrates. The treated water flows out from the outlet, thus achieving wastewater purification.

[0004] Most existing planktonic biofilm filters introduce air directly into the filter during operation. However, due to the limited oxygen content in the air, the filtration process cannot be fully and thoroughly carried out, which greatly weakens the overall filtration effect of the biofilter. Therefore, a compact planktonic biofilm filter is proposed to solve the above problems. Utility Model Content

[0005] To overcome the above shortcomings, this utility model provides a compact planktonic biofilm filter, which aims to improve the problem that most existing planktonic biofilm filters directly introduce air into the filter during operation. Due to the limited oxygen content in the air, the filtration process cannot be carried out comprehensively and thoroughly, which greatly weakens the overall filtration effect of the biofilter.

[0006] To achieve the above objectives, the present invention adopts the following technical solution: a compact planktonic biofilm filter, comprising a filter tank, a stirring assembly and a rinsing assembly at the top of the filter tank, an inlet pipe on the right side wall of the filter tank, and an outlet pipe on the left side wall of the filter tank. The stirring assembly includes a fixed plate fixedly connected to the top of the filter tank, a motor fixedly connected to the top of the fixed plate, a stirring rod fixedly connected to the output end of the motor, a telescopic cylinder fixedly connected inside the stirring rod, a slider fixedly connected to the output end of the telescopic cylinder, a sliding groove opened inside the stirring rod, and a stirring blade fixedly connected to the bottom of the stirring rod.

[0007] As a further description of the above technical solution: the flushing assembly includes a water tank fixedly connected to the top of the fixed plate, a water pump fixedly connected to the side wall of the water tank, a water spray pipe fixedly connected to the output end of the water pump, aeration pipes provided on both sides of the water spray pipe, and a sewage outlet provided on the side wall of the filter tank.

[0008] As a further description of the above technical solution: an aeration pipe is fixedly connected inside the filter tank, a quartz sand support layer is provided on the top of the aeration pipe, and a biofilm filter material is provided on the top of the quartz sand support layer.

[0009] As a further description of the above technical solution: the stirring rod is rotatably connected inside the fixed plate, and the slider is slidably connected inside the stirring rod;

[0010] As a further description of the above technical solution: a stirring blade is fixedly connected to the surface of the slider;

[0011] As a further description of the above technical solution: the stirring blades on the surface of the slider are slidably connected to the inside of the stirring rod, and a filter screen is provided at the bottom of the quartz sand support layer;

[0012] As a further description of the above technical solution: the aeration pipe is fixedly connected to the bottom of the fixing plate;

[0013] As a further description of the above technical solution: the water spray pipe is fixedly connected inside the fixed plate.

[0014] This utility model has the following beneficial effects:

[0015] 1. In this utility model, through the structural design of the stirring assembly and the cooperation of the motor, stirring rod, and stirring blades, water can be stirred efficiently, improving the uniformity of water-oxygen mixing. The telescopic cylinder can flexibly control the raising and lowering of the stirring rod to adapt to different water height requirements. The design of the slider and chute makes the stirring rod more stable during the raising and lowering process, reducing shaking and ensuring the continuous and reliable stirring operation. The overall device structure is reasonably designed, which can effectively improve the efficiency and quality of stirring operation. It solves the problem that in most existing planktonic biofilm filters, air is directly introduced into the tank during operation. Due to the limited oxygen content in the air, the filtration process cannot be carried out comprehensively and thoroughly, which greatly weakens the overall filtration effect of the biofilter.

[0016] 2. In this utility model, through the structural design of the flushing component, the water pump draws water from the water tank and sprays it through the spray pipe, which can be used to clean impurities in the filter tank. The aeration pipe can deliver air to a specific area for dual water and air flushing. The overall structure is simple and practical, and the components work together to meet diverse functional requirements, thus enhancing the practicality of a compact planktonic biofilm filter.

The stirring rod 23 is rotatably connected inside the fixed plate 21, so that the motor 22 can drive the stirring rod 23 to rotate. The slider 25 is slidably connected inside the stirring rod 23, so that the height can be adjusted to adapt to different water depths. The stirring blades 27 are fixedly connected to the surface of the slider 25. The slider 25 drives the stirring blades 27 to rotate. The stirring blades 27 on the surface of the slider 25 are slidably connected inside the stirring rod 23 to stir and mix the wastewater, so that water at all depths can be mixed. A filter screen is set at the bottom of the quartz sand support layer 8 to perform preliminary filtration of wastewater.

[0025] Reference Figures 1-3The rinsing assembly 3 includes a water tank 31 fixedly connected to the top of the fixed plate 21. A water pump 32 is fixedly connected to the side wall of the water tank 31. A spray pipe 33 is fixedly connected to the output end of the water pump 32.
