Description
Technical Field
[0001] This utility model relates to the field of wastewater treatment technology, specifically to a denitrification deep bed filter. Background Technology
[0002] A denitrifying deep-bed filter is a water treatment device primarily used to remove nitrates and nitrites from water. It typically employs an anaerobic or hypoxic environment, reducing nitrates to nitrogen gas through denitrification, thereby removing pollutants from the water. These filters are commonly used in drinking water treatment, wastewater treatment, and the purification of agricultural wastewater. The filter usually consists of multiple layers of media with different particle sizes, such as sand, gravel, and activated carbon. As water flows through these media, suspended solids and particles are captured, while harmful substances are removed. In the bottom layer or specific areas of the deep-bed filter, due to the slower water flow and lower oxygen levels, an anaerobic or hypoxic environment is created. Denitrifying bacteria thrive in this environment, reducing nitrates to nitrogen gas, which is then released into the air. The denitrification process relies on these bacteria to convert nitrates in the water into nitrogen gas, effectively reducing the nitrate concentration in the water.
[0003] A multi-stage denitrification deep bed filter, such as the one disclosed in CN222556711U, includes a tank body. A middle-stage filter box is fixedly installed at the top of the tank body, and a top-stage filter box is fixedly installed at the top of the middle-stage filter box. A coarse sand layer is fixedly connected to the bottom of the top-stage filter box. The middle-stage filter box contains, from top to bottom, a fine sand layer, an activated carbon layer, a fiber filter screen, and a membrane filter layer. This multi-stage denitrification deep bed filter achieves automated cleaning of the coarse sand layer by setting a cleaning brush in the top-stage filter box, combined with a cylinder, a drive motor, and a sliding structure of a moving plate. Driven by the drive motor, the cylinder moves the moving plate back and forth along the support slide rod, effectively removing accumulated organic matter, microbial residues, dirt, and impurities from the coarse sand layer. This significantly improves the cleanliness of the pre-filtration layer and effectively prevents the filter media from caking and clogging.
[0004] The aforementioned patent proposes that, driven by a motor, the cleaning brush moves the moving plate back and forth along the support slide bar, effectively removing organic matter, microbial residues, dirt, and impurities accumulated on the coarse sand layer. However, in actual use, the moving plate has a limited depth, resulting in insufficient cleaning of the filter media and affecting the device's water treatment effect. Utility Model Content
