Abstract

An improvement in a fractionation/flotation system for separating liquid containing particles of varying mass or specific gravity. A reactor vessel comprises a fractionation column and a foam aggregation chamber surmounting the column. Liquid containing the waste is pumped into the fractionation column via a first inlet and a second inlet at intermediate locations where the first inlet entry is higher than the second inlet. A waste reducing gas is injected into the second inlet immediately prior to the liquid entering the fractionation column. The separating apparatus comprises an elongated passageway, a primary lip for liquid containing particles to flow over, a secondary lip lower than the primary lip for liquid to flow over. Flow is diverted within the passageway by a suction pipe. Liquid in the pipe contains particles of relatively lower mass or specific. Liquid containing particles of higher mass or specific gravity flows out over the secondary lip.

Description

The improvement of the flotation/fractionating system of treatment liq and the separation method of treatment liq
Technical field
The present invention relates to be used to comprise the improved control device of the flotation/fractionating system of reactor and particle separator.The present invention can be used as (but non-only can be used as) protein skimmer especially, comes the auxiliary treatment holding tank to contain biomass and from the liquid of the refuse of aquatic class.
In whole specification sheetss, unless need in addition in the literary composition, word " comprises (comprise) " or variant is interpreted as being meant as " comprising (comprises) " or " comprising (comprising) " and comprises the whole or whole group of being stated but do not get rid of any other whole or whole group.
Background technology
Known use comprises the flotation/fractionating system of reactor vessel in water treatment field, as " protein skimmer " of common name, to maintain the aquatic class in the holding tank.In U.S. patent No.4834872, narrated a kind of example of employed one type protein skimmer in the prior art.Such protein skimmer provides liquid from the aftertreatment of body round-robin, oxygenation in described liquid wherein, and remove remaining biomass and nitrite, its degree of treatment reaches and it can be returned in the aquarium (aquarium) or analogue that therefrom takes out described liquid and handle.Though it is effectively that this protein skimmer is applied to small-sized aquarium, because the complicacy of its design, it is not suitable for handling the liquid of comparatively large vol, and the latter is aquatic class large-scale holding tank operation is included.
In bigger tank systems, owing to the validity of cost adopts protein skimmer than simple types.In the Figure 1A of accompanying drawing and 1B, illustrate two kinds of examples of the prior art systems of in the larger slot system, using.
Figure 1A is depicted as a kind of protein skimmer design, and it comprises the single pump 11 of use, and described pump pumps through import 13 liquid from holding tank 15.The outlet 17 of pump 11 imports liquid the mid-way of the main fractionating tower 21 of reactor vessel 23 through pipe winding device 19.Described pipe unit 19 comprises the Venturi tube 25 of polyphone with it, is used for injecting ozone/oxygen mixture from concentrating the source (not shown) to pipe unit through inlet line 27, and enters separation column 21 subsequently.Reactor vessel 23 is included in the collection chamber 29 on the separation column 21, is used to collect foam, foam be in separation column 21, inject the liquid carry ozone/oxygen mixture secretly, and tower in have a come-up bubble of this gaseous mixture liquid infiltration produce.Outlet line 31 links to each other with the bottom of separation column 21, so that remove the liquid portion of the processing of bottom from reactor vessel 23, and it is returned in the holding tank 15.
As described in the U.S. patent No.4834872, by the oxygenizement of foaming through the ozone/oxygen mixture of separation column 21, reduced the nitrite and the nitrate that neutralized, and the biomass of any remnants is adsorbed by the buoyant foam that is produced, and finally is collected in the collection chamber 29.
The total amount of liquid of process reactor vessel 23 decides by the control of pump 11.This total amount influences the residence time value of liquid in reactor vessel, and to guaranteeing that it is important have the enough time to make eradicating nitrate, nitrite and biomass in the process of liquid in staying in described reactor vessel.Pump 11 also influences the flow velocity through the liquid of Venturi tube 25, thereby and influence liquid and flow the ozone carried secretly and the quantity of oxygen.Basically, the Venturi tube of flowing through speed is fast more, and the ozone that liquid stream is carried secretly and the volume of oxygen are big more.Moreover it is fast more that resulting fluid enters separation column 21, and caused turbidity is big more in separation column.Amount of gas in reactor vessel 23 has determined the pressure head of described tower, thereby and has determined the quantity of resulting liquid in separation column 21.Therefore, wish flow rate of liquid maximum, because under any circumstance Venturi tube has limited flow velocity inherently through Venturi tube 25.Also wish to be fixed on the quantity of the liquid in the reactor vessel 23, make its surface just at separation column 21 and below collection chamber 29 junctions.This has promoted the gathering at collection chamber 29 inner foams, and makes it to keep dry, thereby prevents from unnecessarily to lose liquid in flotation/fractionation treating processes.
The problem that is produced in this system is, can not control in such a way the operation of pump 11, promptly, make all parameters that influence by it carry out the best setting, particularly when realizing the optimum operation efficient of described system, a parameter must be adjusted and under the situation that another is not adjusted.
For example, when the flow rate of liquid maximum of Venturi tube 25 of wishing to flow through for aeration and flotation purpose, thereby when making the gas volume that is incorporated in the separation column 21 maximum, this can cause the too fast and amount of fluid in separation column of total treatment capacity to reduce.This be increase by the pressure head that the reactor vessel that is provided directly is provided for the ratio of gas in the reactor vessel and liquid due to.The minimizing of this amount of fluid can cause liquid level to be lower than separation column 21 and the very big distance in collection chamber 29 junctions, makes to be reduced by gaseous mixture institute liquid volume to be processed, and not every foam can both be collected in the collection chamber.For making the processing optimizing of liquid, the height of liquid need be in maximum value in reactor vessel.
Opposite is, the quantity maximum of the liquid reactor vessel 23 in, and the flow rate of liquid that need enter separation column 21 is reduced to a certain degree, makes the ratio minimizing pressure head wherein of in described tower gas and liquid, and makes the amount of fluid increase.Yet this causes the reduction of the aeration degree of the decline of turbidity and liquid and ozone and oxygen, and it is required that aeration is that liquid is suitably handled, though because the decline that total treatment capacity produces increases the residence time.
Although can reach rational compromise proposal, but because for making biomass be adsorbed in foam, thereby and from solution, be removed and the degree of the foaming that produces, depend on this fact of proteinic quantity that in liquid, contains nitrite and nitrate, and make this problem aggravation.The protein that exists from needs carry out liquid that the groove of liquid fractionation and flotation introduces is many more, and then the foam that wherein produces is many more.Because depending on, the proteinic quantity in liquid occupies the aquatic organism kind that is stored in the holding tank 15, and the operation of complete and pump 11 is irrelevant, thereby need with the total treatment capacity of influence and thereby the control of pump of the liquid residence time of influence in reactor vessel 23, with influence turbidity and in described tower the control of the flow rate of liquid of the process Venturi tube 25 of amount of fluid dissociate.
In the design of the protein skimmer shown in Figure 1B, solved this problem, wherein adopt the pipe winding device that comprises Venturi tube 25 19 from the pipe-loop on the suction side, and produce and to comprise its isolating recirculation pipe loop 33, described tube loop has its oneself pump 35.The operation of this second pump 35 is independent mutually with the main import pump 11 of the total treatment capacity of control, thereby independent mutually with total treatment capacity, the control of second pump has determined the flow velocity through the liquid of Venturi tube 25, and the quantity of the liquid in reactor vessel 23.
As depicted in the figures, the outlet 17 of first pump 1 links to each other with separation column 21 in the mid-way 36 along tower, thereby directly injects liquid to be processed therein.Therefore the flow velocity of pump 11 has determined total treatment capacity and the liquid residence time in reactor vessel 23.Recirculation pipe loop 33 has the import 37 that links to each other with the bottom of immediate separation column 21, with extraction liquids therefrom and offer second pump 35.The outlet 39 of second pump 35 links to each other with the pipe winding device 19 that comprises Venturi tube 25.The outlet of Venturi tube 25 is injected into the middle part of separation column 21 with liquid, and the position 36 of liquid is injected in the outlet 17 that this position 41 is lower than pump 11 to tower.This makes untreated liquid carry through first pump 11, thereby will be permeated by the ascending gas mixture that the outlet from Venturi tube 25 at 41 places, position is injected, increased the turbidity in tower, thereby has strengthened contacting between liquid and the gaseous mixture.The additional benefits that recirculation loop had is, is independent of the speed of pump 11, increased the residence time of liquid in reactor vessel.Outlet pipe 31 links to each other with the bottom of separation column 21, thereby removes treated liquid and it is returned in the holding tank 15 from reactor vessel 23.
On main import 13 and outlet 31 pipelines, be respectively arranged with flow velocity valve 43 and 45, so that total treatment capacity is adjusted.
Though this double pump protein skimmer design is better than previous single pump design, thereby wherein can independent controlled variable realize maximum operation efficiency, it is not that effectively because it needs second pump really, and its expense is not low on cost.In addition, it also needs to carry out balance by continue adjusting the liquid optimal number that flow velocity valve is arranged in the tower, condition be generated biomass absorption foamy quantity thereon must be depended on proteinic quantity in liquid.Then, through the adjustment of flow velocity valve, directly influence total treatment capacity, the latter is preferably maximized.
In this two kinds of protein skimmers design, generally constitute by suction pipe from the import 13 of holding tank 15.Described pipe has simply and is set directly in the holding tank or the indoor opening end of skimmer, and liquid flows to the skimmer chamber from holding tank, handles to extract out from groove.Protein skimmer is commonly used to assist the primary filter or the treating processes of the liquid in holding tank, as biofilter, and simply with liquid sucking-off from the same source of primary filter or treating processes, without any preliminary filtration or separation phase.Thereby described protein skimmer can be accepted big biomass particle, and described particle is difficult to absorption and floatingly selects in described system.This has constituted extra burden to the effectiveness of protein skimmer and the balance of system, carrying out described system balancing is for operation effectively, reduce or remove being rendered as proteinic nitrite and nitrate, and remove the solid of suspension and from liquid, remove solid by flotation with molecular level.
