Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This utility model relates to the field of wastewater treatment technology, and in particular to a ceramic flat sheet membrane system for recycling wastewater from coal chemical industry. Background Technology
[0002] my country's energy structure, characterized by abundant coal, scarce oil, and limited natural gas, has spurred the rapid development of the coal chemical industry, particularly emerging coal chemical industries. This rapid development generates substantial amounts of industrial wastewater, which is complex in composition and typically contains high levels of toxic and harmful substances such as phenols, cyanides, and benzene. It also exhibits extremely high levels of CODcr, color, and ammonia nitrogen, making it exceptionally difficult to treat. Wastewater treatment remains a significant challenge. Currently, biological methods are the primary approach for treating coal chemical wastewater in China. The treatment process can be summarized into three main parts: targeted physicochemical pretreatment → biological treatment → subsequent (or advanced) treatment. Biological treatment primarily includes processes such as A / O, A2O, SBR, and UASB. Following biological treatment, processes such as coagulation sedimentation and high-efficiency filters are often employed.
[0003] However, the treated wastewater often fails to consistently meet the "Emission Standard of Pollutants for Coking Chemical Industry" (GB16171-2012), and frequently exceeds the standards for SS, COD, and total nitrogen. Furthermore, the effluent fails to meet the influent requirements for subsequent advanced treatment, increasing the treatment load on these processes. Currently, domestic methods for advanced treatment generally employ processes such as "coagulation + adsorption + advanced oxidation." A coal chemical enterprise in Northwest China uses "activated carbon adsorption tank + coagulation + filtration adsorption tank" for subsequent treatment, achieving Class I discharge standards for its effluent. Other methods utilize a combined process of "sand filtration + ozone oxidation + MBR / powdered activated carbon (PAC)" for advanced treatment of coal gas wastewater, with the effluent reused in the circulating water system. However, these treatment methods still have some problems, such as excessively long and complex treatment processes, large footprints, numerous pieces of equipment, complex operation, high operating costs, and issues like severe membrane fouling leading to membrane clogging and expensive membrane replacement costs.
