Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This utility model relates to the field of chloride ion-containing wastewater treatment technology, and specifically to a treatment device for chloride ion-containing wastewater. Background Technology
[0002] With the continuous advancement of industrialization, many industrial enterprises, especially those in the chemical, metallurgical, electronics, and pharmaceutical industries, generate wastewater containing large amounts of chloride ions and other harmful substances. These pollutants not only severely affect water quality and cause environmental pollution, but may also harm ecosystems and human health. In particular, chloride ions, when their concentration is too high, can increase the corrosivity of water bodies and affect downstream water resource utilization, posing a significant threat to aquatic life and human health.
[0003] Existing wastewater treatment technologies primarily remove pollutants from water through physical, chemical, and biological methods. However, for wastewater containing chloride ions, traditional methods often fail to achieve satisfactory removal results and suffer from problems such as long treatment cycles, high energy consumption, and secondary pollution. Although some treatment devices can remove chloride ions using methods such as chemical precipitation, electrolysis, and ion exchange, these methods are often ineffective in removing chloride ions and may generate large amounts of chemical agents or waste residue during the process, further exacerbating the environmental burden.
[0004] Ultraviolet (UV) disinfection technology, as a chemical-free disinfection method, has been widely used in the water treatment industry. Through UV light irradiation, it can effectively kill bacteria, viruses, and other microorganisms in water. However, UV technology is mainly used for water disinfection and microbial removal, and its effectiveness in removing chloride ions is limited. Therefore, how to combine UV disinfection technology with other wastewater treatment technologies to form a highly efficient, low-energy-consumption, and environmentally friendly integrated treatment device has become an important direction in current water treatment technology research.
[0005] This invention proposes a wastewater treatment device integrating an equalization tank, an electrolytic cell, a neutralization tank, and an ultraviolet disinfection chamber. Through the coordinated operation of different treatment units, it can not only effectively remove chloride ions from the water but also remove microorganisms through ultraviolet disinfection, achieving a highly efficient, environmentally friendly, and low-energy-consumption treatment effect. This device solves the problems of low efficiency, complex operation, and environmental pollution in the treatment of chloride ion wastewater in existing technologies, and has good application prospects.

[0016] A treatment device for chloride-containing wastewater mainly includes an equalization tank, an electrolytic cell, a neutralization tank, an ultraviolet disinfection chamber, and a clear water discharge tank.

Detailed Implementation
[0027] The present invention will be further described below with reference to embodiments, but the scope of protection of the present invention is not limited thereto:
[0028] like Figure 1 As shown, a treatment device for treating wastewater containing chloride ions is provided. The treatment device includes an equalization tank 3, a bar screen well 2 is provided above the equalization tank 3, and an inlet pipe 1 is connected to the bar screen well 2.
[0029] The electrolytic cell 16 is equipped with an anode plate 6 and a cathode plate 7, and a porous diaphragm 8 is provided between the anode plate 6 and the cathode plate 7. The regulating tank 3 is connected to the tank body near the anode plate 6 and the tank body near the cathode plate 7 respectively through pipes.
[0030] The bottom of the electrolytic cell 16 is connected in sequence to the neutralization tank 20, the ultraviolet disinfection chamber 22, and the clear water tank 24.
[0031] A chlorine chamber 12 is provided above the tank near the anode plate 6, and a hydrogen chamber 13 is provided above the tank near one end of the cathode plate 7. Both the chlorine chamber 12 and the hydrogen chamber 13 are equipped with a gas detection system.
[0032] Both the anode plate 6 and the cathode plate 7 are connected to the power control system 9. A pH adjustment device 19 is installed above the neutralization tank 20, and a stirrer 18 is also installed in the neutralization tank 20. The ultraviolet lamps in the ultraviolet disinfection chamber 22 are medium-pressure mercury lamps, numbering 50-150.
[0033] The specific working process and principle of this utility model:
[0034] Chloride-containing wastewater flows into the screen well through the inlet pipe. After passing through the screen, large suspended solids are removed, and the wastewater flows into the equalization tank. The equalization tank balances the wastewater flow and water quality, ensuring stability in subsequent treatment processes. Then, the wastewater flows through the pipeline to the electrolytic cell via a wastewater lift pump. The cathode and anode in the electrolytic cell generate an electric field, causing chloride ions to undergo reduction or oxidation reactions under the influence of the electric field, improving the removal efficiency of chloride ions in the wastewater. The porous membrane design further improves the selectivity of the reaction, avoiding interference from other substances and ensuring highly efficient chloride ion removal. Through electrolysis, chlorine and hydrogen are stored separately in two sealed gas chambers. The chlorine will be safely disposed of through appropriate treatment, while the hydrogen may be used for other purposes, such as energy recovery. The wastewater then flows to the neutralization tank through the pipeline. The wastewater may have changed its pH value after the electrolysis process. A pH adjustment device is used to adjust the acidity and alkalinity of the water, further purifying the water and ensuring that the water quality in subsequent treatment stages meets the required standards. Then, the water flows through the water supply pipe to the ultraviolet disinfection chamber, where ultraviolet light kills pathogenic microorganisms and viruses in the sewage to further purify the water. After that, the water flows through the water supply pipe to the clear water discharge pool to store the treated clear water. After ensuring that the water quality is stable and meets the requirements for discharge or reuse, the water flows out through the outlet pipe to the next unit.
