Description
Technical Field
[0001] This utility model relates to the field of wastewater treatment technology, and in particular to a continuous air flotation separation device for oily wastewater. Background Technology
[0002] The continuous air flotation separator for oily wastewater is a highly efficient and environmentally friendly device for treating oily wastewater. It introduces a large number of microbubbles into the wastewater, causing the bubbles to adhere to oil droplets or suspended solids in the water, forming a complex of "bubbles, oil droplets and suspended solids" with a density less than that of water. This complex then floats to the surface to form scum, which is then removed by a scraper or other device, thus achieving the separation of oil, water and solids.
[0003] When existing continuous air flotation separation devices for oily wastewater are in operation, demulsifiers and flocculants are first added, and then the air flotation separation equipment is used to inject saturated dissolved air water into the wastewater to form a saturated dissolved air solution. The oil and solid pollutants are separated by floating using micro bubbles, thereby achieving efficient and continuous oil-water separation.
[0004] However, the release device of the existing device is fixedly connected to the outlet pipe interface of the air compressor by flange and screw. When the release device is damaged or blocked and needs to be replaced, the efficiency is low and long-term shutdown maintenance is required, which affects the working efficiency. In addition, when the air flotation separation is carried out at room temperature, the impurities have high viscosity and poor fluidity, resulting in low efficiency of air flotation separation. Therefore, a continuous air flotation separation device for oily wastewater is proposed to solve the above problems. Utility Model Content

[0038] Reference Figures 1-4A motor 12 is fixedly connected to the top of the separation tank 1. The motor 12 is explosion-proof and suitable for industrial environments. A stirring rod 17 is fixedly connected to the output end of the motor 12. The motor 12 drives the stirring rod 17 to rotate. The stirring rod 17 is rotatably connected inside the separation tank 1. The stirring rod 17 is equipped with propeller blades on its outside to generate radial and axial flow, which stirs and mixes the water in the separation tank 1. The heating pipe 15 and the conveying pipe 13 are located between the upper baffle 2 and the lower baffle 3.

The release device 16 releases air bubbles into the water to form floating matter. A water supply pipe 8 is fixedly connected to the outside of the separation tank 1. The other end of the water supply pipe 8 is fixedly connected to the outside of the pressure tank 9. The water supply pipe 8 provides water to the pressure tank 9 to maintain stable system pressure.
[0039] Working principle: First, wastewater is transported into the separation tank 1 through the inlet pipe 6. Then, the prepared raw materials are added to the water through the feed pipe 7. Then, the motor 12 is started, which drives the stirring rod 17 at the output end to rotate. The stirring rod 17 mixes the internal solution, which is convenient for subsequent work.
[0040] Secondly, after the mixed water flows through the upper baffle 2, the water pump 29 is started. The water pump 29 transports the high-temperature liquid inside the heating water tank 10 to the heating pipe 15 through the water injection pipe 28. The water inside the separation tank 1 is heated through the bend of the heating pipe 15 to improve the efficiency of air flotation. At the same time, the liquid through the heating pipe 15 returns to the heating water tank 10 through the return water pipe 11 to form a cycle, avoiding heat loss and water waste. After the air flotation is completed, the scum scraper is started to discharge the floating scum from the scum discharge port 4.
[0041] Then, when it is necessary to repair or replace the release device 16, simply turn the knob 25 to loosen the knob 25 from the fixing rod 26. Then, fix the rod 26 along one end of the rotating rod 24 and move the fixing rod 26 out from one side of the fixing block 22. Then, by rotating the rotating rod 24, the clamp 18 and clamp 29 can be separated. After separation, the connecting pipe 14 can be taken out, and the release device 16 at the bottom of the connecting pipe 14 can be replaced. After completion, reverse the operation to fix it.
