AI Technical Summary
The existing sea sand desalination process uses a large amount of fresh water, which leads to the waste of water resources. There is a need for a sea sand desalination device with zero discharge and reuse of recycled water.
Wastewater used for flushing is transported to a wastewater collection tank through a sewage pipe. After sedimentation, it is returned to the greywater tank through a return pipe. The purified greywater is then used to flush the sea sand, thus achieving wastewater reuse.
This reduced wastewater discharge and enabled the recycling of water resources during the sea sand desalination process.

[0002] The term "reclaimed water" is used in contrast to water supply and drainage. Reclaimed water reuse technology refers to the centralized treatment of domestic wastewater (bathing, washing, laundry, kitchen, toilet) from residents of a community, which is then reused for purposes such as watering greenery, washing vehicles, washing roads, and flushing household toilets after meeting certain standards, thereby achieving the goal of water conservation.
[0003] Sea sand desalination refers to the process of removing harmful substances such as chloride ions from sea sand through a series of physical, chemical, or biological methods, so that it meets the standards for construction sand.
[0004] Existing technologies for sea sand desalination use a large amount of fresh water, which leads to a waste of water resources. To address this issue, a sea sand desalination device with zero discharge and reuse of recycled water is needed. Utility Model Content

[0028] Figures 1-4 The diagram shown is a structural schematic of the first embodiment of a zero-discharge sea sand desalination device for greywater reuse according to this utility model. Please refer to [link / reference]. Figures 1-4 The main body of the sea sand desalination device for zero discharge of recycled water in this embodiment includes an outer shell 100 and a recycled water tank 200.
[0029] The outer shell 100 has a sand washing cylinder 110 inside. The outer wall of the sand washing cylinder 110 is provided with a limit ring 120 and a gear ring 140. A drive motor 150 is provided on one side of the gear ring 140. A gear 160 is installed at the output end of the drive motor 150. The gear 160 meshes with the gear ring 140. A water inlet pipe 210 is provided on one side of the medium water tank 200. The water inlet pipe 210 is located inside the sand washing cylinder 110. A sewage pipe 220 is provided at the bottom of the outer shell 100. The other end of the sewage pipe 220 is connected to the sewage collection tank 230. The sewage collection tank 230 is connected to the sedimentation tank 240 through a pipe. The sedimentation tank 240 is connected to the clean water tank 250 through a pipe. The clean water tank 250 is connected to the medium water tank 200 through a return pipe 260.
[0030] The limiting ring 120 is located at both ends of the sand washing cylinder 110, and pulleys 130 are rotatably connected inside the limiting ring 120. There are multiple pulleys 130, and multiple pulleys 130 are located in the inner cavity of the outer shell 100. The drive motor 150 is fixedly connected to the outer shell 100 through a fixing rod. Water pumps 270 are installed on the water inlet pipe 210, sewage pipe 220 and return pipe 260. The outer shell 100 is inclined, and a discharge plate 170 is provided at the higher end of the outer shell 100.
[0031] The outer shell 100 is used to support the sand washing cylinder 110, which is used to wash the sea sand. The limiting ring 120 is used to support the pulley 130, which is used to support the sand washing cylinder 110 to rotate. The gear ring 140 is used to mesh with the gear 160. The drive motor 150 is used to drive the gear 160 to rotate. When the gear 160 rotates, it drives the gear ring 140 to rotate. When the sand washing cylinder 110 rotates, it can roll the sea sand in the inner cavity. Through the rolling of the sea sand, the sea sand will collide and rub against each other, thereby effectively removing harmful substances such as chloride ions and realizing the desalination of sea sand.
[0032] The secondary water tank 200 is used to hold the purified wastewater. The inlet pipe 210 is used to input purified water into the sand washing cylinder 110 to wash the sea sand inside the sand washing cylinder 110. The sewage pipe 220 is used to discharge the sewage from the inner cavity of the outer shell 100 and input the sewage into the sewage collection tank 230 through the water pump 270. The sewage collection tank 230 is used to hold the sewage and to carry the initial sedimentation of the sewage. After sedimentation, the upper sewage is input into the sedimentation tank 240 through the connecting pipe. The sewage is then settled in the sedimentation tank 240. The settled sewage is then transported to the clean water tank 250 through the connecting pipe and to the secondary water tank 200 through the return pipe 260.
[0033] Wastewater used for rinsing can be transported to wastewater collection tank 230 through wastewater pipe 220, and then transported to sedimentation tank 240 for sedimentation through wastewater collection tank 230. After sedimentation, the wastewater will enter water purification tank 250. After sedimentation, the wastewater will re-enter greywater tank 200 through return pipe 260. Then, the greywater in greywater tank 200 will be re-input into the inner cavity of sand washing cylinder 110 through water pump 270. The purified greywater will be used to rinse the sea sand. By reusing the wastewater generated from washing the sea sand, wastewater discharge can be reduced.
[0034] Although the present invention has been described above with reference to embodiments, various modifications can be made and components can be replaced with equivalents without departing from the scope of the present invention. In particular, as long as there is no structural conflict, the features in the embodiments disclosed in this invention can be combined with each other in any way. The lack of an exhaustive description of these combinations in this specification is merely for the sake of brevity and resource conservation. Therefore, the present invention is not limited to the specific embodiments disclosed herein, but includes all technical solutions falling within the scope of the claims.
