Description

The invention relates to a wastewater filter device for insertion into a chamber of a small sewage treatment plant with a wastewater inlet, a wastewater effluent and a filter segment.

Such a wastewater filter system is from the DE 100 41 665 A1 known. Here, an open-topped container-like insert is inserted with a filter segment inserted into a chamber of a small wastewater treatment plant. The waste water inlet and the drainage for the purified water are arranged at the same height.

There is a risk here that the filter effect of the wastewater filter system and the purification of the wastewater are not sufficient. In order to ensure adequate cleaning, therefore, an intensive pre-cleaning of the waste water is necessary. In addition, a secondary clarifier is often necessary. For this purpose, multi-chamber sewage treatment plants, in particular 3-chamber or 4-chamber sewage treatment plants must be provided. It is disadvantageous that the space requirement is correspondingly large.

In addition, it is disadvantageous in existing domestic sewage treatment plants that they can not be retrofitted in accordance with the applicable sewage standards, in part due to a too small number of chambers and / or too small a chamber volume.

It is therefore the problem underlying the invention, a wastewater filter device of the type mentioned in such a way that a higher cleaning effect achievable and a small space requirement for a small wastewater treatment plant with the wastewater filter device can be realized.

The problem underlying the invention is solved by a wastewater filter device of the type mentioned, in which the wastewater inlet below the filter segment and the drain above the filter segment for generating a vertical flow through the filter segment for the wastewater are arranged.

It is advantageous that the flow through the filter segment is specified from bottom to top. Due to the arrangement of the waste water inlet below the filter segment and the effluent effluent above the filter segment, the wastewater is forced to flow through the entire filter segment. As a result, a better cleaning effect can be achieved. Due to the improved cleaning, small sewage treatment plants with a smaller space requirement or volume can also be realized. Here, a small wastewater treatment plant have a single container with one or more chambers. Alternatively or additionally, a small sewage treatment plant may comprise a plurality of, in particular interconnected, containers, wherein the containers each have at least one chamber. The wastewater filter device, in particular for retrofitting, is preferably provided for a 1-chamber or 2-chamber small wastewater algae. The sewage filter device can be arranged in a single chamber. In particular, the wastewater filter device is usable together with a chamber and / or a container for receiving the wastewater filter device as a retrofit kit for an existing small sewage treatment plant. Due to the high cleaning effect of the wastewater filter device can be dispensed with a secondary clarifier.

According to a further embodiment, the waste water inlet, the drain and the filter segment are associated with a closed housing. As a result, an uncontrolled and / or unwanted ingress of substances, material and / or wastewater from outside the sewage filter device is reliably avoided.

Preferably, waste water can be supplied from the chamber into the wastewater filter device by means of the wastewater feed. Thus, by means of the wastewater inlet wastewater in a predetermined manner in the wastewater filter device can be introduced. In particular, the wastewater can be introduced from a region of the wastewater surface by means of the wastewater feed into the wastewater filter device. Preferably, the degree of pre-purification of the waste water in the area of the wastewater surface is greatest. As a result, an overall particularly high cleaning effect can be achieved.

The wastewater inlet can have a sieve tube through which the wastewater enters the wastewater inlet. By means of the screen tube, the introduction of undesirable substances and / or materials in the wastewater filter device can be avoided.

According to a further development, the filter segment has a first screening device and a second screening device arranged downstream of the first screening device. The first screening device and / or the second screening device can each be designed as a sieve bottom or a sieve plate. The wastewater is first forced to flow through the first screening device and thereafter the second screening device. As a result, a filtration of the wastewater can be realized. In addition, by means of a predetermined distance between the first screening device and the second screening device, a volume resulting within the filter segment by means of the first screening device, the second screening device and the housing can be defined.

Filter media are preferably arranged within this volume and / or the filter segment or between the first screening device and the second screening device. In particular, the filter means are formed as a growth agent, preferably made of carbon-treated polyurethane. Further, the growth means may be formed as a cuboid, polygons, balls, or ellipses. Preferably, the growth means are formed as cuboid with an edge length of 10 mm to 50 mm, in particular of 25 mm. The growth agents promote the development of bacteria. The bacteria cleanse the wastewater, the bacteria secrete a fine sludge.

In particular, the volume between the first screening device and the second screening device is 60% to 90%, preferably 70% to 80%, filled with the filter medium. As a result, a particularly effective cleaning of the wastewater as it flows through the filter segment can be achieved.

Within the wastewater filter device and / or the filter segment, especially in a closed housing, low oxygen prevail. As a result, an at least partial, in particular sufficient, Denitfrikation is guaranteed. In denitrogenation, the nitrogen bound in the nitrate is converted to molecular nitrogen.

According to a further embodiment, a cleaning device is associated with the filter segment. By means of the cleaning device, the filter segment, the first screening device, the second screening device and / or the filter means are cleaned. For example, settable substances, in particular sludge, are removed by means of the cleaning device. Thus, the wastewater filter device may be self-cleaning. As a result, a particularly low-maintenance design of the wastewater filter device can be realized. In particular, the cleaning device is designed as an air supply device for introducing air pulses into the filter segment. By introducing air blasts, the filter media can be swirled around each other and settleable substances can be dissolved and / or removed from the filter media, the first screen device and / or the second screen device.

According to a development, a settling device, in particular a settling funnel, is provided. By means of the settling device or the settling funnel settleable substances and / or sediment can settle within the sewage filter device. In particular, the sludge that has been brought into the wastewater by the bacteria can be removed from the wastewater by means of the settling device.

Preferably, the settling device is arranged below the wastewater inlet. In this way, sediments from the wastewater introduced into the wastewater filter device by means of the wastewater feed can sink through its own weight into the settling device. The wastewater can be introduced tangentially into the housing and / or the settling device by means of the wastewater inlet, in particular for generating a gyroscopic or spiral flow within the settling device. The centrifugal, spiral or cyclonic flow forces heavy materials, in particular sludge, outward in the direction of a wall of the housing and / or the settling device. Subsequently, the substances and / or the sludge sink downwards along the wall, in particular in the direction of a funnel tip of the settling funnel. As a result, the cleaning effect is further improved.

The settling device may be associated with a discharge device. By means of the discharge device, the substances deposited in the settling device, in particular settled sludge, can be discharged from the wastewater filter device. The discharge device may have a pump for removing settled substances and / or sludge. In this case, the pump can be designed as an injection pump, in particular an air injection pump. Preferably, the discharge device is arranged below the settling device. This facilitates the removal of substances deposited in the settling device and / or sludge. The settled substances and / or the sludge can be discharged, for example, into a further chamber. Furthermore, the discharge device may have a pipeline for discharging the settled substances, the pipeline preferably having a diameter of 50 mm. The sedimented sludge can preferably be discharged by means of the discharge device, in particular with a pump, into a further chamber. As a result, the sludge from the wastewater filter device is removable, resulting in a self-cleaning and / or maintenance-poor function. The further chamber may be formed as a pre-clearing chamber.

According to a development, a ventilation device, in particular a plate ventilator, is provided for ventilating and / or swirling the waste water in the chamber. By means of the ventilation device is air, in particular oxygen, introduced into the waste water of the chamber. As a result, the bacteria in the wastewater of the chamber can be supplied with sufficient oxygen. The chamber can be designed accordingly as an activation chamber. Preferably, the ventilation device is arranged below the discharge device and / or the settling device. In particular, the ventilation device is oriented such that the exiting air from the ventilation direction and the wastewater filter device towards a bottom of the Chamber is directed. As a result, the wastewater is swirled and prevents deposition of sediment and / or filter media on the floor.

In particular, the ventilation device is funnel-shaped. Due to the funnel-shaped shape with a downward increasing in the direction of a bottom of the chamber circumference is ensured that no sediment and / or filter media remain on the outer circumference of the settler. At a remote from the settling and / or discharge device end of the ventilation device of the disc ventilator is arranged. The disk ventilator faces a bottom of the chamber in a chamber in a mounted state of the sewage filter device.

Preferably, the wastewater filter device with the housing, the filter segment, the settling device, the discharge device and / or the ventilation device is designed as a structural unit. As a result, the installation and / or retrofitting in a chamber of a small wastewater treatment plant is simplified. In particular, the wastewater filter device can be installed and / or installed in a chamber of a container, wherein preferably an existing wastewater treatment plant with such a container and the wastewater filter device can be retrofitted.

Of particular advantage is a small wastewater treatment plant for the purification of wastewater with at least one chamber and with a wastewater filter device according to the invention inserted into the chamber. Preferably, filter means are arranged in the chamber. The filter media can be designed as a growth agent for bacteria. For example, the growth means consist of carbon-treated polyurethane. The growth means may be formed as a cuboid, polygon, balls, or ellipses. Preferably, the growth means are formed as cuboid with an edge length of 10 mm to 50 mm, in particular of 25 mm. The growth agents promote the development of bacteria. The bacteria cleanse the wastewater, the bacteria secrete a fine sludge. Thus, the chamber may be formed as an animation chamber.

According to a further embodiment of the small wastewater treatment plant, the chamber is assigned a further chamber, in particular a pretreatment chamber. The further chamber is used for preclarification, in particular settle sediments on the bottom of the other chamber. Preferably, the pre-clarified wastewater is thus supplied from the further chamber to the chamber by means of a feed device. Here, the feeder may be formed as a simple overflow. Alternatively or additionally, a pump, in particular an injection pump, be provided for transferring pre-clarified wastewater from the further chamber into the chamber with the wastewater filter device.

The waste water from the further chamber can be removed by means of the feed device below the waste water surface of the further chamber, in particular in an upper third of the waste water volume in the further chamber. As a result, the removal of sufficiently preclarified wastewater from the other chamber is guaranteed. A removal of sediments deposited on the ground and / or of floating matter at the wastewater surface from the further chamber and a transfer to the chamber are sufficiently avoided. Preferably, the waste water from the further chamber is a lower third of the waste water volume of the chamber, in particular with a sieve tube, can be fed. This ensures that the wastewater enters an area of the chamber in which a sufficient amount of wastewater-cleaning bacteria and / or filter media resides. As a result, the cleaning effect is further improved.

In particular, the wastewater filter device is designed as a retrofit kit for retrofitting small sewage treatment plants. Of particular advantage is a container with a chamber and a can be arranged in the chamber or mounted wastewater filter as a retrofit kit for small wastewater treatment plants. Due to the wastewater filter device can be dispensed with a secondary clarifier. Preferably, the small wastewater treatment plant is designed for cleaning within a day amount of daily waste water within 24 hours, especially within 20 hours. The volume of the further chamber, in particular in the training as Vorklärkammer, is predetermined accordingly.
