[0027] 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 skilled in the art without creative effort are within the protection scope of the present utility model.

[0028] like Figures 1 to 3 As shown, this embodiment provides an ultrafiltration deep wastewater treatment system, including an assembly base 100 and a connecting water pipe 301. A system control cabinet 110 is installed on one side of the upper end of the assembly base 100. A membrane tank 400 and a membrane permeate tank 500 are respectively opened on both sides of the middle of the upper end of the assembly base 100. A water inlet structure is provided on one side of the membrane tank 400. A submerged ultrafiltration membrane 410 is detachably installed inside the membrane tank 400. A water pump 411 is provided at the upper end of the submerged ultrafiltration membrane 410. A membrane self-priming pump 800 is installed on one side of the upper end of the assembly base 100. The input end is connected to the water pump 411, and the output end of the membrane self-priming pump 800 is connected to the membrane product water tank 500 through the connecting water pipe 301. The water inlet structure includes a water inlet pump 300, which is fixedly installed on the upper end of the mounting base 100. A basket filter 310 is installed on one side of the upper end of the mounting base 100. The basket filter 310 is located on one side of the water inlet pump 300. The input end of the basket filter 310 is connected to the output end of the water inlet pump 300 through the connecting water pipe 301, and the output end of the basket filter 310 is connected to the membrane tank 400 through the connecting water pipe 301.

[0029] In this embodiment, the system can be designed as a standardized skid-mounted module, suitable for municipal sewage treatment plants, biochemical effluent upgrading projects, industrial park drainage system renovation, and deep treatment systems integrated with existing or newly built oil removal processes. The main equipment of the system includes a submerged ultrafiltration membrane 410, a membrane tank 400, a membrane permeate tank 500, a membrane self-priming pump 800, a membrane backwash pump 900, and an aeration blower 200. The equipment can operate in indoor and outdoor environments and requires a 380V power supply.

[0030] Wastewater treated by the biological treatment system is coarsely filtered by basket filter 310 through inlet pump 300 and then enters membrane tank 400. Membrane tank 400 consists of submerged ultrafiltration membrane 410 and steel membrane tank 400. When the equipment is running, the membrane is submerged in wastewater. Submerged ultrafiltration membrane 410 is a spiral wound flat sheet membrane with an open flow channel inside. It has a small footprint and a large membrane area. The pore size of the ultrafiltration membrane is between 0.03 micrometers and 0.06 micrometers. It can filter out pollutants with a molecular weight of more than 300,000 Daltons and can tolerate a suspended solids concentration of up to 1,000 mg / L and oily pollutants up to 100 mg / L.

[0031] Wastewater treatment capacity can be increased by increasing the number of ultrafiltration membranes in the membrane tank 400. Each membrane has an area of ​​27.4 square meters and can treat 1 to 1.5 tons of wastewater per hour. Each square meter of the membrane tank 400 can accommodate 8 membranes, meaning each square meter can treat 8 to 12 tons of wastewater per hour.

[0032] like Figure 2 and Figure 3 As shown, this embodiment provides an ultrafiltration deep wastewater treatment system. An aeration disc 440 is installed inside the membrane tank 400. The aeration disc 440 is located below the submerged ultrafiltration membrane 410. An aeration pipe 201 is installed on one side of the aeration disc 440. An aeration blower 200 is installed on the upper end of the mounting base 100. The output end of the aeration blower 200 is connected to the aeration pipe 201.

[0033] In this embodiment, after the wastewater enters the submerged ultrafiltration membrane 410 tank 400, the membrane permeate tank 500 generates negative pressure, drawing water from the membrane surface into the permeate channel inside the membrane, while pollutants are trapped outside the membrane. While the membrane permeate tank 500 is operating, the aeration blower 200 continuously aerates the membrane, creating a rubbing effect on the membrane surface. The aeration and rubbing intensity of each membrane is 5.6-6 m³ / h, effectively preventing suspended solids from accumulating on the membrane surface, thereby avoiding affecting the membrane flux.

[0034] like Figures 2 to 4 As shown, this embodiment provides an ultrafiltration deep wastewater treatment system. A drain pipe 401 is provided at the lower end of one side of the membrane tank 400, and an outlet pipe 501 is provided at the lower end of one side of the membrane product tank 500.

Ultrasonic liquid level sensors 431 are fixedly installed on both sides of the mounting bracket 430.

[0035] In this embodiment, impurities remaining inside the membrane tank 400 can be discharged through the drain pipe 401, and floating objects floating on the water surface of the membrane tank 400 can be discharged through the overflow tank 403 and the overflow pipe 402. The ultrasonic level sensor 431 facilitates the monitoring of the water level inside the membrane production tank 500 and the membrane tank 400.

[0036] like Figure 1 and Figure 2As shown, this embodiment provides an ultrafiltration deep wastewater treatment system. A sodium hypochlorite mixing tank 600 and a citric acid mixing tank 700 are fixedly installed on one side of the upper end of the mounting base 100. A mixing pipe 610 is provided at the lower end of one side of both the sodium hypochlorite mixing tank 600 and the citric acid mixing tank 700. The output end of the mixing pipe 610 extends into the interior of the membrane tank 400. An online pH meter 420 is fixedly installed on one side of the upper end of the membrane tank 400. The online pH meter 420 cooperates with the sodium hypochlorite mixing tank 600 and the citric acid mixing tank 700.

[0037] In this embodiment, the entire system operates fully automatically without the need for personnel on duty. After several days of operation, the ultrafiltration membrane is cleaned by adding chemicals through an online enhanced cleaning system. The cleaning agents include 30% citric acid and 10% sodium hypochlorite, which are used to clean inorganic and organic pollutants, respectively. The pH value of acid washing is 2-3, and the pH value of sodium hypochlorite cleaning is 10-11. The amount of cleaning chemicals is controlled by a pH meter to prevent excessive use of chemicals.

[0038] like Figure 2 and Figure 3 As shown, this embodiment provides an ultrafiltration deep wastewater treatment system. The membrane tank 400 is equipped with a backwashing structure. The backwashing structure includes a membrane backwash pump 900, which is fixedly installed on the upper end of the mounting base 100. The input end of the membrane backwash pump 900 is connected to the membrane product water tank 500 through a connecting water pipe 301. The output end of the membrane backwash pump 900 is equipped with a flushing pipe 910 connected to a pumping pipe 411. Both the flushing pipe 910 and the pumping pipe 411 are equipped with control valves 412.

[0039] In this embodiment, the ultrafiltration deep wastewater treatment system uses a membrane backwash pump 900 to use a portion of the ultrafiltration membrane permeate inside the permeate tank as backwash water. The backwash structure operates for 30 to 40 seconds every 15 to 30 minutes to ensure the stable operation of the submerged ultrafiltration membrane 410.
