Detailed Implementation
[0019] To achieve the above objectives and effects, the technical means and structure adopted by this utility model are described in detail with reference to the accompanying drawings, focusing on the features and functions of the preferred embodiments of this utility model.
[0020] like Figure 1-4As shown, this utility model provides a system for the treatment and recycling of domestic sewage in courtyards, including a three-compartment septic tank 3, a leachate tank 22, a multi-stage composite packing filtration system, a water storage tank 14, a water distribution tank 17, and a root zone water distribution system 20 connected in sequence. The three-compartment septic tank is mainly used for the pretreatment of domestic sewage. The leachate tank 22 is used to reduce the discharge pressure of the suction pump 4 in the three-compartment septic tank 3. The leachate tank 22 is equipped with multi-stage replaceable filters to filter the effluent from the three-compartment septic tank 3, preventing blockage of the downstream multi-stage composite packing filtration system. The leachate tank 22 is located on the ground, and the liquid in the leachate tank 22 gradually seeps into the multi-stage composite packing filtration system under the action of gravity. The multi-stage composite packing filtration system is used for the purification of domestic sewage. The water storage tank 14 is mainly used to store the leachate from the multi-stage composite packing filtration system. The filtration system outputs water, monitors the water quality, and uses a suction pump 15 to pump the water to a distribution tank 17 in a timed and quantitative manner. The distribution tank 17 is mainly used for the reuse and distribution of the purified water from the system. According to the growth needs of the planted crops, the water is pumped to the rhizosphere water distribution system 20 by a distribution pump 18. The rhizosphere water distribution system 20 is mainly used for the quantitative transportation and distribution of water reused to the surface planting layer 12. The multi-stage composite packing infiltration system includes a pit 6 located on the ground, a multi-layer composite packing layer set in the pit 6, and a surface planting layer 12 set on top of the multi-layer composite packing layer. Each composite packing layer is composed of multiple modular structures spliced together. According to the user's sewage generation, purification requirements, and courtyard area, they can be freely combined and matched without daily maintenance. The composite packing layer can be replaced periodically according to the packing life. The modular structure includes a box 31 with an opening at the top, made of PVC material. The box 31 contains corresponding filler 32. A boss 33 matching the opening is located at the bottom of the box 31. Drainage holes 34 are provided on the bottom and side walls of the box 31. Handle holes 35 are provided on the side walls of the box 31 for easy handling. The distance between the handle hole 35 and the top of the box 31 is less than the thickness of the boss 33. This ensures that the filler 32 is not affected during installation, and that the boss 33 of the upper box 31 can seal the handle hole 35 of the lower box 31 during concave-sleeve installation, preventing leakage. Adjacent boxes 31 on the same layer are fixedly connected by plugs 36. The plugs have the same shape as the handle holes, and their thickness is greater than the thickness of one handle hole but less than the thickness of two handle holes. This ensures a stable connection without affecting the installation of the boss 33 (e.g., ...). Figure 4(As shown). The surface planting layer 12 is made of backfill soil. Based on the regional environmental characteristics and the habits of farmers' families, it is mainly used for planting vegetables, flowers and grass in the courtyard, which can improve the living environment. The sewage pipe 2 of the house 1 is connected to the three-compartment septic tank 3. The three-compartment septic tank 3 is equipped with a sewage suction pump 4. The outlet of the sewage suction pump 4 is connected to the top of the leachate tank 22 through the first outlet pipe 5. The bottom of the leachate tank 22 is connected to the composite filler layer located on the top layer through the leachate pipe 21. One side of the composite filler layer located on the bottom layer is connected to the water storage tank 14 through the second outlet pipe 13. The water storage tank 14 is equipped with a water suction pump 15. The outlet of the water suction pump 15 is connected to the water distribution tank 17 through the third outlet pipe 16. The water distribution tank 17 is equipped with a water distribution pump 18. The outlet of the water distribution pump 18 is connected to the rhizosphere water distribution system 20 through the fourth outlet pipe 19. The rhizosphere water distribution system 20 is located above the surface planting layer 12.
[0021] Domestic sewage from farmers enters a three-compartment septic tank 3 through a sewage pipe 2. After pretreatment to render it harmless, it is discharged into a leachate tank 22 for impurity removal. The liquid in the leachate tank 22 enters a multi-stage composite packing filter system to purify the domestic sewage. The purified water enters a water storage tank 14. The water can be pumped to a distribution tank 17 by a water pump 15 at regular intervals and in a quantitative manner. Then, according to the growth needs of the crops, the water is pumped to the rhizosphere water distribution system 20 by a water pump 18. This system is mainly used for the quantitative transport and reuse of nutrients and water during the growth of crops in the surface planting layer 12.
[0022] In another embodiment, the multi-layer composite packing material consists of, from bottom to top, a composite sand layer 7, a porous ceramsite packing layer 8, a straw-activated biochar packing layer 9, a matured cow dung packing layer 10, and a charcoal-fired coarse sand filter media layer 11. The charcoal-fired coarse sand filter media layer 11 is mainly used for removing organic pollutants from wastewater. Compared with conventional coarse sand, the surface of the charcoal-fired coarse sand develops a microporous structure, increasing its specific surface area, improving its adsorption capacity, and also enhancing soil fertility. The matured cow dung packing layer 10 is mainly used to improve the removal efficiency of COD, total phosphorus, total nitrogen, and ammonia nitrogen in wastewater. It can also provide nutrients for the growth of microorganisms during wastewater treatment, improving their activity and reproductive capacity. The straw-activated biochar packing layer 9 is mainly used to adsorb organic pollutants in the water, remove suspended solids, adjust pH, and improve soil structure and water retention capacity. The porous ceramsite packing layer 8 is mainly used to enhance the removal efficiency of pollutants such as organic matter and ammonia nitrogen in wastewater. The composite sand layer 7 is mainly used for the final purification of the system's effluent, improving the quality of the effluent.
[0023] In another embodiment, the rhizosphere water distribution system 20 includes a pipe body and multiple nozzles installed on the pipe body. The nozzles spray water onto the crops on the surface planting layer 12. The pipe body is detachably connected to the fourth water outlet pipe to facilitate the replacement and maintenance of the multi-stage composite filler filtration system.
