When the reverse osmosis system operates, suspended substances, dissolved substances, microorganisms and the like contained in inlet water can cause pollution of membrane elements, and the pollution mainly comprises forms of insoluble salt scaling, colloid and particle fouling, biological fouling and the like. After the membrane element is polluted, the water yield of the system is reduced, the transmembrane pressure difference of the system is increased, the energy consumption is increased, and the normal operation of the system is influenced, and at the moment, measures are required to prevent or relieve the membrane pollution of the system. For conventional membrane products (microfiltration membranes and ultrafiltration membranes), the most important mode for recovering the performance of the conventional membrane products is backwashing, but the backwashing can cause irreversible damage to membrane elements due to the special rolling structure of the spiral-wound reverse osmosis membrane.

Examples
The invention relates to an environment-friendly reverse osmosis cleaning device and method, which comprises a reverse osmosis cleaning unit 140, can realize that a system is added without chemical agents, saves the logistics transportation cost of the chemical agents, can also reduce the influence of the system discharge on the environment to the maximum extent, and is particularly suitable for reverse osmosis systems in remote areas. The structure of the invention is expressed as follows, the reverse osmosis cleaning unit 140 comprises a piston type hydraulic cylinder 141, and corresponding corrosion-resistant stainless steel is selected as the material of the hydraulic cylinder and the piston according to different salinity of the treated water. The hydraulic cylinder 141 is designed in a hollow thin-wall cylindrical shape, a slidable piston 143 is arranged in the hydraulic cylinder 141, and two sides of the piston 143 divide the hydraulic cylinder 141 into two independent chambers, namely a salt water chamber 142 and a fresh water chamber 144. The contact part of the piston 143 and the inner wall of the hydraulic cylinder 141 is provided with a slidable rubber sealing ring to ensure that chamber water systems on both sides of the piston 143 are separated. According to the length and the outer diameter of the reverse osmosis membrane pressure container, the appearance of the hydraulic cylinder 141 is designed to be similar in size, and for a seawater desalination system, the length is preferably 7.4 m; for a brackish water desalination system, the length is preferably 6.4 m; the outer diameter is preferably 250 mm; the hydraulic cylinder 141 and the reverse osmosis membrane system 130 may be disposed on the frame as a unit. The reverse osmosis cleaning unit 140 is also equipped with 4 automatic valves, which are a brine side water replenishing valve 145, a fresh water side water replenishing valve 146, a reverse osmosis water production blocking valve 147 and a brine side drain valve 148, respectively. The brine chamber 142 is connected to the water inlet line 120 of the reverse osmosis membrane system 130 through a stainless steel adapter tube, and is isolated or communicated through a brine side water replenishing valve 145; meanwhile, the brine chamber 142 discharges the brine of the brine chamber 142 outwards through the brine discharge valve 148, and the discharge is designed to be a non-back pressure design. The fresh water chamber 144 is connected to the water production line of the reverse osmosis membrane system 130 through a stainless steel adapter tube, and is isolated or communicated through a fresh water side water replenishing valve 146. The pipeline from the reverse osmosis membrane system 130 to the produced water collecting unit 149 is provided with an automatic valve reverse osmosis produced water isolating valve 147.
As shown in fig. 1, the reverse osmosis membrane system 130 is operated in an initial stage without salt water and fresh water in the hydraulic cylinder 141. The brine side water replenishing valve 145 is closed, and the fresh water side water replenishing valve 146, the reverse osmosis water production blocking valve 147 and the brine side drain valve 148 are opened. After the reverse osmosis membrane system 130 enters the initial water preparation stage, the fresh water enters the fresh water chamber 144 through the valve fresh water side water replenishing valve 146, the piston 143 is pushed to slide until the saline water chamber 142 is compressed to the minimum, the fresh water chamber 144 is full of the fresh water, the fresh water side water replenishing valve 146 and the saline water side external drain valve 148 are closed at this time, and the reverse osmosis membrane system 130 enters the normal water preparation stage.
When the transmembrane pressure difference of the reverse osmosis membrane system 130 reaches a set cleaning value, or the operation time of the reverse osmosis membrane system 130 reaches a set value, the reverse osmosis cleaning unit 140 starts to operate. The reverse osmosis produced water blocking valve 147 is closed while the brine side water replenishing valve 145 and the fresh water side water replenishing valve 146 are slowly opened. The high pressure inlet water of the inlet line 120 of the reverse osmosis membrane system 130 enters the brine chamber 142 through the brine side water replenishing valve 145, the pressure is transferred to the piston 143, and the piston 143 transfers the pressure to the fresh water in the fresh water chamber 144, so that the pressure of the fresh water is increased until the pressure is slightly lower than the inlet water of the reverse osmosis membrane system 130. Because the sliding friction coefficient between the piston 143 and the inner wall of the hydraulic cylinder 141 is very small, the pressures of the water inlet side and the water outlet side of the reverse osmosis membrane are almost equal, and the salt content of the water inlet side of the reverse osmosis membrane is much higher than that of the water outlet side, according to the basic principle of osmotic pressure, the osmotic pressure of the fresh water in the fresh water chamber 144 is higher than that of the salt water at the water inlet side of the reverse osmosis membrane, the fresh water spontaneously flows to the concentrated water side from the fresh water side through the reverse osmosis membrane, the crystallized salt, the granular dirt and the biological dirt on the surface of the reverse osmosis membrane element are washed away, and the washed dirt is discharged out of the. In the process, the piston 143 slides to the right. When the saline chamber 142 is filled with high pressure saline and the fresh water chamber 144 is fully compressed, the saline side make-up valve 145 is closed and the reverse osmosis cleaning process is complete. And (3) opening the reverse osmosis produced water blocking valve 147 and the brine side external discharge valve 148, restarting the system to initially produce water, enabling the produced water to enter the fresh water chamber 144 through the fresh water side water replenishing valve 146, pushing the piston 143 to move leftwards, and discharging the brine in the brine chamber 142 on the left side of the piston 143 out of the hydraulic cylinder 141. When the fresh water chamber 144 is again filled with fresh water, the fresh water side make-up valve 146 and the brine side drain valve 148 are closed, and the reverse osmosis cleaning unit 140 enters a normal water production state until the next cleaning cycle begins.
The reverse osmosis cleaning unit 140 is used to periodically reverse osmosis clean the membrane elements to wash away the foulants accumulated on the membrane surface. According to the differences of the water quality of inlet water, reverse osmosis pressure, reverse osmosis flux, reverse osmosis duration and the like, the operation periods of reverse cleaning systems are also different and need to be formulated according to actual project conditions.
The reverse osmosis cleaning technology is initiatively adopted, no chemical agent is required to be added into the system, the membrane element is not cleaned on the water inlet side of the reverse osmosis membrane, but fresh water produced by the system is periodically utilized to reversely permeate the reverse osmosis membrane to wash away dirt accumulated on the surface of the membrane element, so that the dirt is discharged along with concentrated solution of the system, the traditional agent cleaning mode can be effectively replaced, the reverse osmosis membrane element can be stably operated for a long time, the agent transportation cost is saved, and the reverse osmosis cleaning technology is friendly to the external environment and has no adverse effect.
The technology is suitable for the field of reverse osmosis desalination of seawater and brackish water, is particularly suitable for maintainable cleaning of a container type reverse osmosis desalination system, ensures that dirt accumulated on a membrane element of the reverse osmosis system is removed periodically, is beneficial to long-time stable operation of the reverse osmosis membrane system, and greatly reduces adverse effects of the system on the external environment.
