Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of wastewater membrane treatment technology, specifically a wastewater membrane treatment softening and hardening removal device. Background Technology

[0002] Wastewater softening offers numerous significant benefits. First, it prevents the formation of scale from calcium and magnesium ions in the water, reducing clogging and corrosion of pipes, boilers, heat exchangers, and other equipment, extending equipment lifespan, and lowering maintenance costs and safety hazards. Second, it improves the efficiency and stability of subsequent water treatment processes (such as membrane filtration and ion exchange), reducing membrane fouling, resin poisoning, and energy consumption. In industrial production, softened water improves product quality, such as reducing fabric stiffness in the textile industry, ensuring uniform color in the dyeing and printing industry, and preventing adverse effects on taste in the food processing industry. In daily life, softened water enhances detergent effectiveness, reduces soap scum residue, and improves skin contact experience. Furthermore, softened wastewater is more likely to meet discharge standards or be reused, reducing the hardness load on receiving water bodies and promoting water resource recycling, thus possessing both environmental and economic value.

[0003] Before softening, the wastewater membrane needs to be cleaned. If it is not cleaned properly, the softening effect and water quality stability will be reduced. The contaminated membrane surface will form a local concentration polarization phenomenon, which will increase the fluctuation of the residual hardness of the softened water and make it difficult to stably reach the preset standard. Therefore, this utility model provides a wastewater membrane treatment softening and hardness removal device to solve the above problems. Utility Model Content

[0023] The technical solutions of the present utility model will be clearly and completely described below with reference to the accompanying drawings of the embodiments. Obviously, the described embodiments are only some embodiments of the present utility model, and not all embodiments. Based on the embodiments of the present utility model, all other embodiments obtained by those of ordinary skill in the art without creative effort are within the protection scope of the present utility model.

[0024] This utility model provides a wastewater membrane treatment softening and hardening removal device, such as... Figure 2 and Figure 3 As shown, the system includes a water tank 1. Two sliding plates 2 are installed on the inner wall of the water tank 1. A slider 3 is slidably connected to the inside of the two sliding plates 2. Two foams 4 are connected to the outer surface of the slider 3. A mounting frame 5 is installed on the bottom surface of the slider 3. A water tank 6 is installed on the upper surface of the mounting frame 5. Multiple through-slots 7 are opened on the outer surface of the water tank 6. A water pump 8 is installed on the inner bottom wall of the water tank 6. To efficiently collect and treat the wastewater film on the water surface, the system cleverly utilizes the principle of water level difference. First, water in the water tank 1 flows into the water tank 6 through the through-slots 7. Then, the water pump 8 starts pumping water, making the water level in the water tank 6 lower than the water level in the water tank 1, thereby collecting the wastewater film on the water surface. The main function of the water pump 8 is not only to pump water but also to maintain the water level difference to drive the surface water flow. Compared to directly extracting the dispersed wastewater film without pressure difference, the energy utilization rate is significantly improved.

[0025] like Figure 2 and Figure 5As shown, a first mounting plate 9 is installed on the upper surface of the water tank 1. Two filter boxes 10 are installed on the upper surface of the first mounting plate 9. One filter box 10 has an outlet pipe 12 connected to its outer surface, and the other filter box 10 has a flexible hose 11 connected to its outer surface. The end of the flexible hose 11 away from the filter box 10 passes through the water tank 6 and connects to the output end of the water pump 8. Through the tight connection between the output end of the water pump 8 and the flexible hose 11, the wastewater membrane is stably transported to the upper filter box 10 for filtration. This step ensures that the wastewater membrane can be efficiently collected and initially purified, providing a basis for further filtration. This lays a solid foundation for subsequent treatment steps. Meanwhile, another filter box 10 is responsible for discharging the treated water. Through the outlet pipe 12, the water treated by the filter box 10 is smoothly guided into the water tank 1, completing the water circulation link in the entire treatment process. This design not only ensures the rational use of water resources, but also guarantees the continuity and efficiency of the treatment process. The upper filter box 10 can be filled with filter cotton, which can effectively intercept the wastewater membrane and prevent it from further polluting the water body. Through this design, the system achieves efficient interception of the wastewater membrane.

[0026] like Figure 4 and Figure 5As shown, a raised block 13 is installed on the bottom surface of the water tank 1, a groove 14 is formed in the inner bottom wall of the water tank 1, a connecting pipe 15 is connected to the outer surface of the water tank 1, an electronic valve 16 is installed on the outer surface of the connecting pipe 15, a second mounting plate 17 is installed on the outer surface of the water tank 1, an electric slide rail 18 is installed on the upper surface of the second mounting plate 17, a sliding block 19 is slidably connected to the outer surface of the electric slide rail 18, a connecting plate 20 is installed on the upper surface of the sliding block 19, a connecting column 21 is connected to the bottom surface of the connecting plate 20, a scraper 22 is installed on the bottom surface of the connecting column 21, and the outer surface of the scraper 22 is flush with the inner wall of the groove 14. In contact with the water tank 1, a control box 24 is installed on the outer surface of the water tank 1, and a door 25 is hinged to the outer surface of the control box 24. A wave-making pump 23 is installed on the inner wall of the water tank 1. A shim 13 installed on the bottom of the water tank 1 can raise the entire water tank 1 to create a groove 14. The groove 14 created on the inner bottom wall of the water tank 1 serves to collect the lime. First, lime is sprinkled into the water tank 1. The control box 24 starts the wave-making pump 23. The wave-making pump 23 works to generate water flow, which fully stirs the wastewater and lime in the water tank 1, so that the lime can fully contact and react with the calcium and magnesium ions in the wastewater. During the stirring process, the lime will enter the water with the water flow. When drainage is needed, the control box 24 controls the electric slide rail 18 to start, and the sliding block 19 slides on the electric slide rail 18. Through the connecting plate 20 and the connecting column 21, the scraper 22 moves. The scraper 22 contacts the inner wall of the groove 14, accumulating the lime in the groove 14. Then, the control box 24 controls the electronic valve 16 on the connecting pipe 15 to open, and the water and accumulated lime in the water tank 1 are discharged through the connecting pipe 15, which makes it easier to remove lime residue. The whole process is controlled by the control box 24, and all components work together to achieve wastewater membrane treatment. The orderly process of softening, hardening, and residue cleaning, with the connecting pipe 15 able to connect to external pipes, offers significant advantages. When lime residue is discharged with the water flow through the connecting pipe 15, the lime can be centrally collected through the connected external pipes. The collected lime can be reused after appropriate treatment, such as being reused in the chemical reaction of wastewater softening treatment, improving resource utilization and reducing raw material costs. At the same time, centralized collection avoids environmental pollution caused by the random discharge of lime residue, meets environmental protection requirements, and reduces the cleanup burden on the surrounding environment, making the entire treatment process more environmentally friendly and efficient.

[0027] Working principle: The slider 3 obtains buoyancy by means of two foams 4 connected to its outer surface. It can slide synchronously with the rise and fall of the water level in the pool 1 under the limiting action of the two sliding plates 2. Then, through the mounting frame 5, it drives the water tank 6 to maintain a relatively fixed position with respect to the water surface. At this time, the water pump 8 on the bottom wall of the water tank 6 starts to work through the start of the control box 24. During the water pumping process, multiple through grooves 7 on the outer surface of the water tank 6 allow the water in the pool 1 to flow into the water tank 6, forming a water level difference between the water tank 6 and the water surface of the pool 1. Using this pressure difference, the water pump 8 can efficiently pump the wastewater film on the surface of the water into the water tank 6, and then transport it to the filter box 10 for filtration treatment, preparing for the subsequent softening and hardening process, and ensuring that the entire treatment process is carried out in an orderly manner.

[0028] The above description is only a preferred embodiment of the present utility model, but the protection scope of the present utility model is not limited thereto. Any equivalent substitutions or changes made by those skilled in the art within the technical scope disclosed in the present utility model, based on the technical solution and the inventive concept of the present utility model, should be included within the protection scope of the present utility model.
