Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of wastewater treatment and discloses a wastewater treatment system. Background Technology

[0002] If metallurgical wastewater is discharged directly without treatment, it will not only lead to energy waste and increased production costs, but also pollute the surrounding environment and disrupt the ecological balance. Therefore, metallurgical wastewater needs to be treated before it is discharged to ensure that the effluent meets the standards for process water.

[0003] The hydrometallurgical processes of cobalt and nickel generate large quantities of ammonium sulfate wastewater with high COD and metal ion content. Current pretreatment methods aim to remove COD and metal ions as much as possible to purify the ammonium sulfate solution. The purified solution is typically then concentrated through evaporation. However, current wastewater treatment systems have low evaporation efficiency for ammonium sulfate solution. When wastewater is passed into heating equipment, it undergoes only one evaporation process, making it difficult to effectively utilize the heat generated by the equipment to improve evaporation efficiency. Therefore, a wastewater treatment system with higher evaporation efficiency is urgently needed. Utility Model Content

[0004] The purpose of this utility model is to provide a wastewater treatment system to solve one or more technical problems existing in the prior art, and at least provide a beneficial option or create conditions.

[0005] A wastewater treatment system according to a first aspect of the present invention includes: a boiler having a steam outlet and a concentrate outlet; a multi-effect evaporator including multi-effect evaporation chambers arranged in a straight line, wherein a concentrate chamber is formed inside the evaporation chamber, a condenser and a spray pipe are provided in the concentrate chamber, the spray outlet of the spray pipe faces the condenser, and the steam outlet is connected to the condenser in the first evaporation chamber; in two adjacent evaporation chambers, uncondensed steam in the condenser of the previous evaporation chamber and gas generated by evaporation in the concentrate chamber enter the condenser in the next evaporation chamber together, and liquid in the concentrate chamber of the previous evaporation chamber enters the concentrate chamber of the next evaporation chamber; a water ring vacuum pump for generating negative pressure in the multi-effect evaporation chamber; a feed pump for supplying liquid to the multiple spray pipes; and a concentrate discharge pump for extracting unevaporated liquid from the concentrate chamber.

[0006] This technical solution has at least the following beneficial effects: Wastewater at a certain temperature is added to the boiler for heating and evaporation. The generated steam enters the multi-effect evaporator from the steam outlet, and the evaporated solution also enters the multi-effect evaporator from the concentrate outlet. The multi-effect evaporator has multiple evaporators arranged in a straight line. A water ring vacuum pump creates a vacuum in the evaporation tank, forming a vacuum inside the evaporation tank. The greater the distance from the water ring vacuum pump, the lower the vacuum degree of the evaporation tank, and the higher the saturation evaporation temperature of the liquid. When the water ring vacuum pump creates a negative pressure in the evaporation tank, it can also remove non-condensable gases, thereby improving vacuum efficiency and steam efficiency. The steam generated by the boiler first enters the exhaust... In the condenser section of the first evaporator, a feed pump supplies wastewater to the spray pipes of that evaporator. The wastewater is then sprayed onto the condenser section, forming a primary evaporation. This spraying creates a liquid film on the condenser, effectively improving steam formation efficiency. The wastewater after primary evaporation flows into the concentrated water at the bottom of the concentrated water chamber and enters the next-effect evaporator for further heating and evaporation. Similarly, the steam from the primary evaporation and the uncondensed boiler steam also enter the condenser section of the next-effect evaporator. Because the vacuum level of this evaporator is relatively higher than that of the previous evaporator, the saturation evaporation temperature of the liquid is relatively lower. At this point, wastewater is continuously supplied to the spray pipes for secondary evaporation. In this way, the wastewater is heated and evaporated in the boiler, and the heat from the resulting concentrated water and steam is used to heat the evaporators with increasing vacuum levels. Multiple evaporation processes are also performed in the multi-effect evaporators, effectively recovering and utilizing the heat generated in the system, improving overall evaporation efficiency, and reducing energy consumption for wastewater treatment.

[0027] Reference Figure 1 and Figure 2According to a first aspect of the present invention, a wastewater treatment system includes a boiler 100, a multi-effect evaporator, a water ring vacuum pump 300, a feed pump 400, and a concentrate discharge pump 500. The boiler 100 has a steam outlet 110 and a concentrate outlet 120. The multi-effect evaporator includes multi-effect evaporation chambers 210 arranged in a straight line. For example, the number of evaporation chambers 210 can be two, three, or four. A concentrate chamber 211 is formed inside each evaporation chamber 210. A condenser and a spray pipe 220 are provided within the concentrate chamber 211. The spray outlet of the spray pipe 220 faces the condenser. The steam outlet 110 is connected to the condenser in the first evaporation chamber 210. In two adjacent evaporation chambers 210, the uncondensed steam from the condenser in the previous evaporation chamber 210 and the concentrate are discharged. The gas generated by evaporation in evaporator 211 enters the condenser section of the next-effect evaporator 210. The liquid in the concentrate chamber 211 of the previous-effect evaporator 210 enters the concentrate chamber 211 of the next-effect evaporator 210. In practical applications, the condenser sections of the previous-effect evaporator 210 and the condenser sections of the next-effect evaporator 210 can be directly connected through pipelines, or through other guiding structures to achieve directional gas flow. Similarly, the liquid in the concentrate chamber 211 of the previous-effect evaporator 210 can also be directly connected to the concentrate chamber 211 of the next-effect evaporator 210 through pipelines. The water ring vacuum pump 300 is used to generate negative pressure in the multi-effect evaporator 210. The feed pump 400 is used to supply liquid to the multiple spray pipes 220. The concentrate discharge pump 500 is used to extract the unevaporated liquid in the concentrate chamber 211.

[0028] As described above, wastewater at a certain temperature is added to boiler 100 for heating and evaporation. The generated steam enters the multi-effect evaporator from steam outlet 110, and the evaporated solution also enters the multi-effect evaporator from concentrated water outlet 120. The multi-effect evaporator has multiple evaporators arranged in a straight line. A water ring vacuum pump 300 creates a vacuum in evaporation tank 210, forming a vacuum inside evaporation tank 210. The greater the distance from the water ring vacuum pump 300, the lower the vacuum degree of evaporation tank 210, and the higher the saturation evaporation temperature of the liquid. When the water ring vacuum pump 300 creates a negative pressure in evaporation tank 210, it can also remove non-condensable gases, thereby improving vacuum efficiency and steam efficiency. The steam generated by boiler 100 first enters the evaporation tank 210 arranged on the first side. In the condenser section of 10, the feed pump 400 supplies wastewater to the spray pipe 220 of the evaporator 210. The wastewater is sprayed onto the condenser section through the spray pipe 220, forming a primary evaporation. The formation of a liquid film on the condenser section through spraying can effectively improve the steam formation efficiency. The wastewater after primary evaporation flows into the concentrated water at the bottom of the concentrated water chamber 211 and enters the next-effect evaporator 210 for heating and evaporation. Similarly, the steam after primary evaporation and the uncondensed steam from the boiler 100 also enter the condenser section of the next-effect evaporator 210. Since the vacuum degree of this evaporator 210 is relatively higher than that of the previous-effect evaporator 210, the saturated evaporation temperature of the liquid is relatively lower. At this time, wastewater is continued to be supplied to the spray pipe 220, and secondary evaporation can be carried out in this evaporator 210. In this way, the wastewater is heated and evaporated in the boiler 100, and the heat from the resulting concentrated water and steam is used to heat the evaporator 210, which has a higher vacuum. Multiple evaporation processes are also carried out in the multi-effect evaporator 210, thereby effectively recovering and utilizing the heat generated in the system, improving the overall evaporation efficiency, and reducing the energy consumption required for wastewater treatment.

[0029] As a specific embodiment of the condensation section, the condensation section includes a plurality of upper condensing pipes 231 and a plurality of lower condensing pipes 232 connected to the two inner sides of the evaporator 210, and a first pipe seal 233 and a second pipe seal 234 respectively disposed on the two outer sides of the evaporator 210. One end of the plurality of upper condensing pipes 231 is connected to the first pipe seal 233, and the other end of the plurality of upper condensing pipes 231 and one end of the plurality of lower condensing pipes 232 are respectively connected to the second pipe seal 234. The other end of the plurality of lower condensing pipes 232 is respectively provided with an air inlet, and the first pipe seal 233 is provided with a first air outlet. Steam delivered from boiler 100 steam outlet 110 reaches the multi-effect evaporator. It first enters the multiple lower condenser tubes 232 through the air inlets of the multiple lower condenser tubes 232 arranged on the first side of the evaporator 210. When the gas flows along the lower condenser tubes 232 to the second tube seal 234, it exchanges heat with the inside of the concentrate chamber 211 once. Then, it turns back into the multiple upper condenser tubes 231 in the second tube seal 234, and then flows in the opposite direction from the multiple upper condenser tubes 231 into the first tube seal 233 in the evaporator 210, and is discharged from the first air outlet of the first tube seal 233. During the process of the gas flowing in the multiple upper condenser tubes 231, it exchanges heat with the inside of the concentrate chamber 211 a second time. This can prolong the path of the steam flow in the concentrate chamber 211 and improve the efficiency of steam heat collection and utilization.

[0030] Furthermore, the area within the concentrated water chamber 211 between the spray pipe 220 and the upper condenser pipe 231 at the top is designated as the spray zone. A second vent is provided on the side of the evaporator 210 where the second pipe seal 234 is located. The first vent and the second vent are respectively connected to the spray zone. The steam discharged from the first vent of the first pipe seal 233 flows back into the evaporator 210 to reheat the wastewater sprayed into the concentrated water chamber 211. The steam generated from the spray pipe 220 spraying onto the condenser section also mixes with the steam at the top of the concentrated water tank and is then discharged through the second vent to the next-effect evaporator 210.

[0031] In order to transfer the gas from the condenser section of the previous evaporator 210 to the condenser section of the next evaporator 210, in this embodiment, connecting boxes 240 are respectively provided on both sides of the evaporator 210. The first pipe seal 233 and the second pipe seal 234 are respectively located in the two connecting boxes 240, and the two connecting boxes 240 between adjacent evaporators 210 are connected to each other. The connecting boxes 240 located on both sides of the evaporator 210 form gas flow spaces on both sides of the evaporator 210. The steam sent from the steam outlet 110 can be directly sent into the connecting box 240 on one side of the first evaporator 210. At this time, the gas can flow in the connecting box 240 to the air inlet formed by multiple lower condenser pipes 232, and thus enter the condenser section. The gas flowing out of the condenser section from the second air outlet enters the connecting box 240 on the other side of the evaporator 210, and so on, entering the next evaporator 210 and repeating this process.

[0032] The condensate generated inside the upper condenser pipe 231 and the lower condenser pipe 232 can flow to the first pipe seal 233 and the second pipe seal 234 at both ends. At this time, the first pipe seal 233 and the second pipe seal 234 can be provided with a structure to drain the condensate. In this embodiment, the bottom side of the first pipe seal 233 is connected to a first drain pipe 235, and the bottom of the first drain pipe 235 is bent upward to form a first water trap. The bottom side of the second pipe seal 234 is connected to a second drain pipe 236, and the bottom of the second drain pipe 236 is bent upward to form a second water trap. In practical applications, the shape of the first water trap and the second water trap can be U-shaped. Condensate entering the first pipe seal 233 flows into the first drain pipe 235 and is discharged into the connecting box 240 through the first drain pipe 235. Since the bottom of the first drain pipe 235 is bent upward to form a first water trap, the first water trap can temporarily store the condensate and act as a water seal at the bottom of the first drain pipe 235, thereby preventing steam from being discharged into the connecting box 240 through the first drain pipe 235. Similarly, condensate entering the second pipe seal 234 flows into the second drain pipe 236 and is discharged into the connecting box 240 through the second drain pipe 236. Since the bottom of the second drain pipe 236 is bent upward to form a second water trap, the second water trap can temporarily store the condensate and act as a water seal at the bottom of the second drain pipe 236, thereby preventing steam from being discharged into the connecting box 240 through the second drain pipe 236.

[0033] To better collect the generated condensate, this embodiment of the invention also includes a condensate pump 610. The condensate pump 610 is used to extract condensate from the connecting boxes 240 located at the end of the evaporator. A condensate drain pipe 620 is connected between the bottom sides of the two connecting boxes 240 located on both sides of the evaporator. The condensate pump 610 generates a negative pressure suction force from the connecting boxes 240 located at the end of the evaporator to extract the condensate. The condensate in the connecting boxes 240 on one side of the evaporator 210 can enter the connecting box 240 on the other side of the evaporator 210 through the condensate drain pipe 620, flowing sequentially through multiple connecting boxes 240, and finally being discharged and collected. The generated condensate meets the standards for process water, achieving a larger water production capacity.

[0034] This utility model also includes a condenser 710, wherein multiple heat exchange tubes 720 are arranged on both sides inside the condenser 710, and a condensate inlet and a condensate outlet are respectively arranged on both sides of the bottom of the condenser 710. A feed pump 400 is connected to one end of the multiple heat exchange tubes 720, and the other end of the multiple heat exchange tubes 720 are respectively connected to multiple spray pipes 220 through pipelines. A connecting box 240 arranged at the end is connected to the condensate inlet through a pipeline, and a condensate pump 610 is connected to the condensate outlet through a pipeline. Wastewater at a certain temperature is fed into the multiple heat exchange tubes 720 of the condenser 710 by the feed pump 400 and discharged together with the condensate generated inside the condenser 710 during operation. The condensate generated inside the condenser 710 during operation is extracted by the condensate pump 610 and recycled as process water.

[0035] In practical applications, in the initial stage, wastewater at a certain temperature enters the boiler 100 for heating and evaporation. The generated steam enters the condenser 710 through the multi-effect evaporator to preheat the wastewater, so that the wastewater reaches the saturation temperature and enters each effect evaporator in parallel. In addition, scale inhibitors and defoamers can be added to the wastewater during the process of entering the evaporator to optimize the operating effect.

[0036] Furthermore, the condenser 710 has a steam inlet and an exhaust outlet on its top two sides, respectively. The connecting box 240, located at the end, is connected to the steam inlet via a pipe, and the exhaust outlet is connected to the water ring vacuum pump 300 via a pipe. Steam from the evaporator 210 located at the end enters the condenser 710, where it is condensed into liquid condensate, which is then extracted and recovered by the condensate pump 610. The non-condensable gases contained therein are sent to the water ring vacuum pump 300 through the exhaust outlet, where the water ring vacuum pump 300 discharges the non-condensable gases.

[0037] After evaporation in the first-effect evaporator 210, part of the concentrated water is pumped under pressure to the bottom of the next-effect evaporator 210 to form a natural convection evaporation layer. The remaining concentrated water can also be sprayed into the spray pipe 220 of the next-effect evaporator 210. Specifically, between two adjacent evaporators 210, an intermediate feed pipe 810 is connected between the concentrated water chamber 211 of the previous evaporator 210 and the spray pipe 220 of the next evaporator 210. An intermediate feed pump 820 is installed on the intermediate feed pipe 810. The intermediate feed pump 820 is used to make the liquid in the intermediate feed pipe 810 flow from the concentrated water chamber 211 to the spray pipe 220. During operation, the intermediate feed pump 820 sends a portion of the concentrated water produced in the previous saving tank into the spray pipe 220 of the next effect evaporator 210, where it is mixed with the wastewater supplied by the feed pump 400 and sprayed in the spray pipe 220 to form a falling film evaporation layer. Since the temperature of the concentrated water sent from the intermediate feed pump 820 is still relatively high, flash evaporation will occur when it enters the next evaporator 210 with a higher vacuum degree for spraying, thus further improving the efficiency of wastewater evaporation.

[0038] After evaporation in the last evaporator 210, some of the concentrated water may not meet the discharge standards. In practical applications, a salinity meter can be used for sampling and measurement. Therefore, in this embodiment, the concentrated water chamber 211 located at the end is provided with a return pipe 510 connected to multiple spray pipes 220. The concentrated water pump 500 allows the liquid in the return pipe 510 to flow from the concentrated water chamber 211 to the multiple spray pipes 220. The concentrated water after evaporation in the last evaporator 210 is pumped to the return pipe 510 by the concentrated water pump 500. After passing through the return pipe 510, it is mixed with fresh wastewater of different concentrations and temperatures replenished by the feed pump 400. Then, it re-enters the spray pipes 220 at the top of each evaporator 210 for spray evaporation. This allows for better control of the discharged concentrated water to meet discharge requirements. In practical applications, the liquid can be directly discharged or pumped to the return pipe 510 via a valve.

Those skilled in the art can make various equivalent modifications or substitutions without departing from the spirit of the present invention. All such equivalent modifications or substitutions are included within the scope defined by the claims of this application.
