Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This utility model relates to a mine water purification system with nanofiltration as its core, which can achieve deep purification treatment of iron ore mine water and belongs to the field of water treatment technology. Background Technology
[0002] Building green mines, promoting eco-friendly technologies, and actively participating in environmental governance are social responsibilities that every metal mining enterprise must fulfill. This is especially true for large-scale iron ore mines, where the volume of mine water inflow is often substantial. Directly discharging large quantities of harmful mine water can easily cause direct pollution to the land and water systems, affecting human and animal health, and further damaging the regional groundwater ecosystem. Therefore, the treatment and recycling of mine water is of great significance for improving the local ecological environment. To protect regional groundwater resources and improve the groundwater environment, large-scale iron ore mine drainage water is often purified before being used for mining, mineral processing, and domestic water needs. Excess water is reinjected into the aquifer of the mining area. However, mine water inflow must first be purified to meet the prescribed reinjection water quality requirements before it can be reinjected into the ground. This places even stricter requirements on mine water purification technology.
[0003] Reverse osmosis technology is currently one of the most widely used water treatment technologies in China. The water production rate of reverse osmosis membranes is about 30%, and can reach 50% in some cases. This is mainly because the reverse osmosis membrane has a high precision of 0.0001um. However, due to the large pressure difference of the reverse osmosis membrane, the required operating pressure is high, which leads to high power consumption and high system operating costs for mine water purification systems based on reverse osmosis.
[0004] Nanofiltration membranes can separate dissolved components as small as approximately 1 nm. They exhibit ion selectivity, removing heavy metal ions such as cadmium, chromium, copper, lead, manganese, mercury, and nickel, as well as SO42-. 2- PO4 3- It produces divalent or higher-valence negative ions, operates at a pressure approximately 30% lower than reverse osmosis, has a membrane pressure differential of 0.5-1.0 MPa, and achieves a water production rate of up to 80%, generating less wastewater and resulting in lower operating costs (electricity consumption). However, mine water purification technology centered on nanofiltration is rarely applied in engineering. Therefore, designing a mine water purification system based on nanofiltration is of great significance for energy conservation and consumption reduction. Utility Model Content

[0021] This invention addresses the shortcomings of existing technologies by providing a mine water purification system based on nanofiltration. This system achieves deep purification of iron ore mine water, meeting national reinjection water quality standards, while simultaneously reducing water treatment costs.
[0022] See Figure 1 This utility model mainly includes a mechanically accelerated clarification tank 1, a buffer tank 2, a booster pump 3, a raw water tank 4, a raw water pump 5, a multi-media backwash pump 6, a multi-media filter 7, a self-cleaning filter 8, a backwash drainage tank 9, a self-priming pump 10, a main security filter 11, a high-pressure pump 12, a nanofiltration device 13, a nanofiltration purified water tank 14, a nanofiltration flushing pump 15, a reinjection water pump 16, a nanofiltration concentrate tank 17, a Roots blower 18, a coagulant dosing system 19, a coagulant aid dosing system 20, a lime slurry dosing system 21, a scale inhibitor dosing system 22, a reducing agent dosing system 23, a production fresh water tank 24, a circulating water tank 25, a NaCLO dosing system 27, and a nanofiltration cleaning device. The nanofiltration cleaning device includes a chemical tank 28, a chemical cleaning pump 29, and a secondary security filter 26.
[0023] The influent to clarifier 1 comes from mine drainage, and the produced water (cleaned water) is piped to buffer tank 2. Coagulant (polyaluminum chloride) is added to clarifier 1 via coagulant dosing system 19, coagulant aid (polyacrylamide) is added via coagulant aid dosing system 20, and slaked lime is added via lime slurry dosing system 21 to further remove suspended solids, colloidal impurities, calcium and magnesium carbonate hardness, etc., from the mine water, ensuring the final turbidity of the produced water from the clarifier is ≤10 NTU. The produced water, after flocculation and sedimentation treatment in clarifier 1, flows by gravity to buffer tank 2 via pipeline.
[0024] Water in buffer tank 2 is pumped to raw water tank 4 by lift pump 3 (two to three units, only one shown in the figure) and pipeline. Raw water pump 5 (three to four units, only one shown in the figure) pressurizes the water in raw water tank 4 to multi-media filter 7 (nine to eleven units, only one shown in the figure) through pipeline. The permeate water after flocculation and sedimentation treatment in clarifier 1 still contains fine colloidal particles, humic substances, microorganisms, etc. The multi-media filter 7 is filled with two kinds of filter media, quartz sand and anthracite. After the mine water is filtered by the filter media, the above-mentioned impurities are further removed. The permeate water from multi-media filter 7 flows by gravity through pipeline to self-cleaning filter 8.
[0025] After running for a period of time, more and more impurities will accumulate in the multi-media filter 7. When the water production is significantly reduced, the multi-media filter 7 needs to be backwashed. The backwashing device includes a multi-media backwash pump 6 and a Roots blower 18. The inlet of the multi-media backwash pump 6 (two units, only one is shown in the figure) is connected to the raw water tank 4, and the outlet is connected to the backwash pipeline of the multi-media filter 7, which pumps backwash water into the multi-media filter 7 to cooperate with the Roots blower 18 for backwashing. The water inlet direction of the backwash pipeline of the multi-media filter 7 is opposite to that of the inlet pipeline, and water enters from the bottom of the filter media of the multi-media filter 7. The Roots blower 18 (two units, only one is shown in the figure) provides high-pressure air to the bottom of the multi-media filter 7 through the pipeline, which blows the filter media upward and backwashes the filter media together with the backwash water. The wastewater generated by backwashing is discharged into the workshop ditch through the backwash drain pipe and collected into the backwash drainage tank 9. The backwash drainage tank 9 is equipped with a self-priming pump 10 (two units, only one is shown in the figure), which discharges the wastewater to the mechanical acceleration clarification tank 1 for flocculation and purification through the pipeline.
[0026] Self-cleaning filters 8 (five to six units, only one shown in the diagram) are installed after the multi-media filter 7 and before the high-pressure pump 12 and nanofiltration unit 13. Their product water end is connected to the main security filter 11 via a pipeline. The product water, further filtered and purified by the self-cleaning filter 8, flows by gravity to the main security filter 11. The self-cleaning filter 8 has a filtration accuracy of 50μm and is a fully automatic operating device. When the pressure difference between the inlet and outlet water of the self-cleaning filter 8 exceeds 0.05MPa or the filtration cycle reaches 24 hours, the self-cleaning filter 8 will automatically clean its filter element, achieving uninterrupted operation and continuous water output. The cleaning wastewater is discharged to the backwash drainage tank 9 through the workshop ditch.
[0027] Main security filters 11 (five to six units, only one shown in the diagram) are installed before the high-pressure pump 12. The filter cartridge has a filtration accuracy of 5μm. The product water, after further filtration and purification by the main security filter 11, is connected to the inlet of the high-pressure pump 12 via pipeline. When the pressure difference between the inlet and outlet of the main security filter 11 is greater than 0.02Mpa, the filter cartridge must be replaced manually. The product water after further purification by the main security filter 11 meets the requirements for nanofiltration influent, with a turbidity of less than 1.0 NTU.
[0028] High-pressure pumps 12 (five to six units, only one shown in the diagram) are installed before the nanofiltration unit 13. Based on the pressure difference requirements of the membrane elements, one high-pressure pump 12 is configured before each nanofiltration unit 13. The system operating pressure is 0.5-0.75 MPa. The high-pressure pump 12 pumps water at a high pressure of approximately 0.69 MPa into the inlet of the nanofiltration unit 13 through pipelines, where the water undergoes further desalination and deep purification through the nanofiltration membrane module.
[0029] The self-cleaning filter 8, main security filter 11, high-pressure pump 12, and nanofiltration unit 13 are all of equal quantity. The purified water produced by the nanofiltration unit 13 flows by gravity through pipeline to the nanofiltration purified water tank 14. The inlet of the reinjection pump 16 (two units, only one is shown in the figure) is connected to the nanofiltration purified water tank 14, and the outlet is connected to the reinjection pipeline. The purified water is sent to the domestic water point and reinjection well through the reinjection pump 16 and reinjection pipeline for domestic water use and reinjection. The concentrated water produced by the nanofiltration unit 13 flows by gravity to the new production water tank 24, the ring water tank 25, and the nanofiltration concentrated water tank 17 for the production water of the entire mine.
[0030] The inlet of the nanofiltration flushing pump 15 (one or two units, one is shown in the figure) is connected to the nanofiltration purification water tank 14 through a pipeline, and the outlet is connected to the nanofiltration device 13 through a pipeline. Before each nanofiltration is started, the nanofiltration device 13 is flushed with purified water through the nanofiltration flushing pump 15 to flush away microorganisms and other impurities that have grown or remained in the nanofiltration system. Before each nanofiltration is stopped, the nanofiltration device 13 is also flushed with purified water through the nanofiltration flushing pump 15 to ensure that the water in the nanofiltration device 13 is purified water. The flushing water flows by gravity through pipelines to the nanofiltration concentrate tank 17, the production fresh water tank 24, and the circulating water tank 25.
[0031] To protect the nanofiltration membrane of nanofiltration unit 13, when the oxidation-reduction potential (ORP) in the raw water is greater than 180, a reducing agent is added to the pipeline through the reducing agent dosing system 23 to prevent oxides from entering the membrane housing. The dosing point is located on the inlet pipe of the main security filter 11, and the dosing method is metering pump injection. To protect the nanofiltration membrane of nanofiltration unit 13 and prevent membrane scaling, a scale inhibitor is added to the pipeline through the scale inhibitor dosing system 22. The dosing point is located on the inlet pipe of the main security filter 11, and the dosing method is metering pump injection. Two NaCLO dosing systems 27 are configured, with dosing points located in the nanofiltration purified water tank 14 and the raw water tank 4 respectively (the dosing pipeline of the raw water tank 4 is not shown in the figure), and the dosing method is metering pump injection.
[0032] To prevent nanofiltration membrane degradation and subsequent performance decline, a nanofiltration cleaning unit (one set) is installed, and the nanofiltration system is chemically cleaned every three months. The nanofiltration cleaning unit includes: a chemical tank 28, a chemical cleaning pump 29, a secondary security filter 26, and piping. The outlet of the nanofiltration unit 13 is connected to the inlet of the chemical tank 28 via piping, and the inlet of the chemical cleaning pump 29 is connected to the outlet of the chemical tank 28. The outlet of the chemical cleaning pump 29 is connected to the inlet of the nanofiltration unit 13 via the secondary security filter 26 and piping. The chemical cleaning pump 29 delivers the chemical solution from the chemical tank 28 to the nanofiltration unit 13, allowing the solution to circulate between the tank and the unit, thus chemically cleaning the nanofiltration membrane. The cleaning wastewater is discharged into the workshop ditch and collected in the backwash drainage tank 9. Example
[0033] (1) A certain iron mine is a large-scale water-rich iron mine. In order to ensure safe mining and protect the groundwater environment, a curtain grouting and recharge project is implemented. The mine water must first be discharged to the surface for deep purification to meet the standard requirements before being recharged to the underground aquifer outside the curtain to maintain the groundwater ecological environment. Through the analysis of the mine water inflow, it can be seen that the mine water inflow mainly comes from the Ordovician aquifer in the upper part of the ore body. The water from the working face of the mining area is discharged to the -260m permanent water reservoir through the roadway ditch and the drainage well. The underground water inflow was sampled and tested. The results are detailed in Table 1. According to Table 1, it can be determined that the water contains a small amount of suspended solids, intestinal bacteria, organic matter, ammonia nitrogen, etc. Based on this utility model, the mine water treatment system is designed for the mine.
