For those skilled in the art, the specific meaning of the above terms in the present application can be understood according to the specific circumstances.
[0035] As shown in Figure 1, the ozone catalytic system small test device of the present application comprises a catalytic unit, a liquid transmission unit and a gas treatment unit. The catalytic unit can have a catalytic reaction inside, the liquid transmission unit is communicatively arranged on both sides of the catalytic unit, and the gas treatment unit is communicatively arranged at the top and bottom of the catalytic unit.
[0036] The catalytic unit comprises a cover plate 2, a shell 1 and a supporting tray 3. The shell 1 is a rectangular parallelepiped structure with an open top, and has a cavity inside for catalytic reaction. The open top is used for cleaning and maintenance of the device. A first through hole and a second through hole are arranged in the vertical direction from top to bottom at the bottom of the side wall of the shell 1, which are the feeding ports of the catalytic unit. A third through hole is arranged at the top of the side wall of the shell 1, which is the discharging port of the catalytic unit. The height difference between the feeding port and the discharging port of the catalytic unit is proportional to the residence time of sewage in the catalytic unit. The cover plate 2 is detachably arranged at the top of the shell 1, and the top opening of the shell 1 is sealed by sealing glue during use. The surface of the cover plate 2 is provided with a fourth through hole, which can discharge the reacted gas in the catalytic unit.
[0037] In the preferred embodiment, the third through-hole of the shell 1 is arranged on the opposite side wall of the first and second through-holes, and the distance between the third through-hole and the top end of the shell 1 is greater than 5 cm, which provides space for the escape of the gas in the catalytic unit and prevents sewage from entering the fourth through-hole on the cover plate 2.
[0038] The supporting tray 3 is used to support the catalytic layer 31, which is usually filled with spherical catalyst particles with a diameter of 2-4 mm made of silicon, carbon or aluminum. The catalytic layer 31 can stabilize the flow of fluid flowing through the inside of the catalytic layer 31 and increase the residence time of sewage in the catalytic unit.
[0039] The supporting tray 3 includes a first support plate and a gauze. The first support plate is fixed to one-third to one-half of the height of the shell 1, is fixed to the inner wall of the shell 1 parallel to the bottom surface of the shell 1, and has the same size as the bottom surface of the shell 1, thereby dividing the internal cavity of the shell 1 into a first inner cavity below and a second inner cavity above. The surface of the first support plate is provided with a plurality of first flow-through holes for communicating the first inner cavity with the second inner cavity. The gauze is arranged on the upper surface of the first support plate, and the pore diameter thereof is between 1-2 mm, thereby preventing the catalyst particles in the catalytic layer 31 from blocking the first flow-through holes on the first support plate.
[0040] Further, when the density of the catalytic layer 31 is less than or equal to the density of the sewage, a second support plate can be placed on the upper surface of the catalytic layer 31 to prevent the catalyst particles therein from floating up. Specifically, the second support plate has the same size as the first support plate, is fixed to the inner wall of the shell 1, further divides the second inner cavity into a third inner cavity and a fourth inner cavity, and is provided with a plurality of second flow-through holes on the surface thereof for communicating the third inner cavity with the fourth inner cavity. It can be understood that, at this time, the internal cavity of the entire shell 1 is sequentially divided into the first inner cavity, the third inner cavity and the fourth inner cavity from bottom to top by the first support plate and the second support plate, and the catalytic layer 31 is arranged in the third inner cavity.
[0041] In the preferred embodiment, the thickness of the supporting tray 3 is greater than 3 mm, and the surfaces of the first support plate and the second support plate are uniformly distributed with a plurality of flow-through holes, each flow-through hole has a diameter smaller than the diameter of the catalyst particles, and the spacing between adjacent flow-through holes is greater than or equal to twice the diameter of the catalyst particles.
[0042] The liquid transmission unit includes a water inlet pipe 41, a water outlet pipe 42 and a first flow meter 43. The water inlet pipe 41 is communicatively arranged on the first through-hole of the shell 1 to transmit the sewage to be treated into the first inner cavity of the shell 1 of the catalytic unit. The first flow meter 43 is arranged on the water inlet pipe 41 to control the flow of the sewage to be treated into the catalytic unit. The water outlet pipe 42 is communicatively arranged on the third through-hole of the shell 1 to discharge the treated sewage.
[0043] The gas treatment unit comprises an inlet pipe 51, a gas distribution pipe 54, an outlet pipe 52, a second flow meter 53, and a tail gas processor 6. The inlet pipe 51 is arranged in communication with the second through hole of the shell 1, and is used to transmit ozone gas into the first inner cavity of the shell 1 of the catalytic unit. The second flow meter 53 is arranged on the inlet pipe 51, and is used to control the flow rate of the gas entering the catalytic unit. The outlet pipe 52 is arranged in communication with the fourth through hole of the cover plate 2, and is used to discharge ozone gas that does not participate in the reaction in the catalytic unit and carbon dioxide gas generated after the reaction. The tail gas processor 6 is arranged on the cover plate 2, and is connected with the outlet pipe 52. The tail gas processor 6 is internally provided with electrically heated wires, and can be heated to 400℃. The tail gas processor 6 is used to convert the unreacted ozone in the outlet pipe 52 into oxygen, and discharge the oxygen into the atmosphere.
[0044] As shown in FIG. 2, the gas distribution pipe 54 is arranged at the bottom end of the first inner cavity of the shell 1, and comprises a main pipe 541 and a plurality of branch pipes 542. One end of the main pipe 541 is connected with the inlet pipe 51, and the other end is sealed. The surface of the main pipe 541 is provided with two rows of mounting holes arranged symmetrically. The spacing between each mounting hole in each row is the same. One end of each of the branch pipes 542 is connected with the main pipe 541 through a joint, so that the port of the branch pipe 542 corresponds to the mounting hole on the main pipe 541. The other end of the branch pipe 542 is sealed. The surface of each of the branch pipes 542 is uniformly provided with a plurality of outlet holes, so that the ozone gas can be uniformly discharged from the gas distribution pipe 54 in the form of bubbles. The diameter of the outlet holes ranges from 0.2mm to 2mm.
[0045] In the preferred embodiment, a rubber film containing a large number of micro outlet holes can be further sleeved on the surface of the branch pipe 542. The diameter of the micro outlet holes on the rubber film is less than 0.5 microns. The diameter of the bubbles diffused from the gas distribution pipe 54 is smaller, the area of the gas-liquid interface is increased, and the mass transfer efficiency is improved.
[0046] When the device is used for sewage treatment, the sewage to be treated enters the first inner cavity of the catalytic unit through the water inlet pipe 41, and the flow of the sewage to be treated can be adjusted by the first flow meter 43, thereby controlling the residence time of the sewage to be treated in the catalytic unit. At the same time, the ozone gas enters the gas distribution pipe 54 through the gas inlet pipe 51 and is discharged from the gas distribution pipe 54 to the first inner cavity of the catalytic unit in the form of bubbles, and the flow of the ozone gas can be adjusted by the second flow meter 53 to control the density of the ozone bubbles in the sewage. At this time, the sewage and ozone bubbles in the first inner cavity move upward under the action of water pressure, and when passing through the supporting tray 3 and the catalytic layer 31 in the third inner cavity, the residence time of the sewage and ozone bubbles in the catalytic unit is further increased, so that the sewage and ozone are fully contacted; at the same time, under the action of the catalyst, the ozone will quickly decompose the pollutants in the sewage, and the pollutants will be converted from large molecular organic matter to small molecular organic matter, and finally converted into carbon dioxide and water. The treated sewage is discharged from the water outlet pipe 42 communicating with the fourth inner cavity, and the ozone gas that does not participate in the reaction in the catalytic unit and the carbon dioxide gas generated after the reaction are discharged through the gas outlet pipe 52 at the top and enter the tail gas treater 6 to remove the ozone and then discharged into the atmosphere. The residence time of the sewage in the entire catalytic unit is controlled between 0.5-2h.

The cover plate 2 is fixed on the top end of the shell 1 by using sealing glue, so as to ensure that the cover plate 2 can seal the top opening of the shell 1 during use of the device. The first support plate is fixed on the inner wall of the shell 1 by hot melting, and is used for placing the catalytic layer 31.
[0049] The catalytic layer 31 selects aluminum-based spherical catalyst particles with a diameter of 2-4mm, and covers the supporting tray 3; the thickness of the catalytic layer 31 can be one-twelfth of the effective water depth to one-fourth of the effective water depth, and the specific thickness can be determined according to the fixed position of the supporting tray 3. The higher the fixed position of the supporting tray 3, the smaller the thickness of the catalytic layer 31.
[0050] The gas distribution pipe 54 is made of ABS engineering plastic, and the length of the main pipe 541 and the branch pipe 542 is determined according to the size of the bottom surface of the shell 1, so that the main pipe 541 and the branch pipe 542 cover the bottom surface of the shell 1; the diameter of the main pipe 541 and the branch pipe 542 is between 20-50mm, and the diameter of the main pipe 541 is greater than or equal to the diameter of the branch pipe 542.
[0051] In the embodiment, the residence time of the sewage in the device is controlled to be 1h by adjusting the first flow meter 43, and the ozone adding concentration is 100mg / L by adjusting the second flow meter 53. As shown in Table 1, the sewage in the effluent pipe 42 of the device is sampled every 4h, and the sewage before and after treatment is analyzed by potassium dichromate oxidation method to measure the change of the chemical oxygen demand in the sewage, thereby verifying that the device can continuously treat the sewage, and the catalytic oxidation effect can be sustained.
