Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model belongs to the field of wastewater treatment technology, and in particular relates to a water treatment device for enhanced manganese removal. Background Technology

[0002] Manganese is widely distributed in nature, with groundwater typically containing higher levels than surface water. Industrial activities such as steel and non-ferrous metal smelting also contribute to manganese pollution in water bodies. Excessive manganese ions in water not only affect its sensory properties, causing staining of clothing and the formation of "black water" from deposits on pipe walls, but also pose a potential threat to human health. Long-term ingestion can damage the nervous system, digestive system, and liver and kidney function, leading to dizziness, nausea, and abnormal liver and kidney function, among other problems. Currently, conventional manganese removal methods include oxidation, adsorption, ion exchange, and biological methods, but all have significant drawbacks: oxidation methods are prone to problems such as difficulty in controlling the dosage, demanding reaction conditions, and complex subsequent treatment; adsorption methods have limited adsorption capacity and are easily affected by interference; ion exchange methods require high energy consumption, generate large amounts of waste, and require advanced operational techniques; and biological methods have long treatment cycles and are susceptible to environmental factors, resulting in poor stability. The water treatment devices corresponding to these methods generally suffer from problems such as low manganese removal efficiency, high waste residue generation, serious reagent waste, high operating costs, weak adaptability, and poor operational stability, making it difficult to meet the treatment needs of high-concentration manganese-containing wastewater. Therefore, there is an urgent need to develop a water treatment device that has high manganese removal efficiency, stable operation, and is economical and environmentally friendly.

The chlorination reaction tank 1 is connected to the activated carbon reaction tank 2 via a connecting pipe 4. The bottom of the activated carbon reaction tank 2 is connected to the bottom of the chlorination reaction tank 1 via a return pipe 8. The solution flows back from the activated carbon reaction tank 2 to the chlorination reaction tank 1 through the return pipe 8 to ensure efficient and thorough manganese removal and prevent waste of reagents. A return pump 11 is installed on the return pipe 8 to provide power for the return solution and to prevent the solution from stagnating in the chlorination reaction tank 1 / activated carbon reaction tank 2 and forming stagnant water. A sodium hypochlorite solution dosing pipe 3 and an inlet pipe 10 are connected to one side of the chlorination reaction tank 1. An activated carbon powder suspension conveying pipe 6 is connected to the top of the activated carbon reaction tank 2. An outlet pipe 5 is connected to one side of the activated carbon reaction tank 2. A first slag discharge pipe 7 and a second slag discharge pipe 9 are connected to the bottom of the chlorination reaction tank 1 and the activated carbon reaction tank 2, respectively.

[0020] In chlorination reaction tank 1, water quality and quantity are regulated. Sodium hypochlorite solution is added to oxidize manganese ions into insoluble MnO2, which assists in the subsequent activated carbon reaction tank 2 in regulating water quality, quantity, and activated carbon adsorption, ensuring stable operation of the device. A first slag discharge pipe 7 is installed at the bottom of chlorination reaction tank 1 to facilitate the discharge of generated precipitates and prevent their accumulation in the tank, thus affecting the treatment effect. Activated carbon powder suspension is added to activated carbon reaction tank 2. The activated carbon adsorbs MnO2 generated in chlorination reaction tank 1, and then continues to adsorb manganese ions, promoting their precipitation. The bottom of activated carbon reaction tank 2 is equipped with a second slag discharge pipe 9, which is conducive to the discharge of the generated precipitate and prevents the precipitate from accumulating in the tank and thus affecting the treatment effect.

The fully reacted large-diameter activated carbon-MnO2 particles settle to the bottom of the inverted cone shape of the two tanks and are discharged through the first slag discharge pipe 7 and the second slag discharge pipe 9. The treated water, meeting the standards, is discharged through outlet pipe 5. The return inlet flow rates are Q1 and Q2, respectively, with Q1 and Q2 expressed in m... 3 The ratio of water flow rate to water volume is 9:1; the flow rate of water from outlet pipe 5 is synchronously adjusted according to the inlet flow rate to ensure a stable liquid level in the tank. After treatment by this device, the effluent Mn 2+ The concentration is ≤0.1mg / L, and the pH value is maintained at 6.5-8.5, which meets the Class I standard of the "Integrated Wastewater Discharge Standard" (GB8978-1996).
