Description

Die vorliegende Erfindung betrifft ein Verfahren zur Kanalreinigung mit einem hydrodynamischen Kanalreinigungsgerät, wobei in einem zu reinigenden Kanalabschnitt das Kanalreinigungsgerät mit Brauchwasser unter Druck beaufschlagt und durch die Rückstoßkraft des resultierenden Wasserstrahls vorwärts bewegt wird und dabei Verunreinigungen löst, und wobei anschließend das Kanalreinigungsgerät zurückgezogen wird und dabei die Verunreinigungen mit dem Wasserstrahl zurück gespült und in Form von Schmutzwasser aus dem Kanalabschnitt entfernt werden.The present invention relates to a method for channel cleaning with a hydrodynamic sewer cleaning device, wherein in a channel section to be cleaned, the sewer cleaning device pressurized with hot water and is moved forward by the repulsive force of the resulting water jet and thereby dissolves impurities, and then the sewer cleaning device is retracted and the impurities are flushed back with the water jet and removed in the form of dirty water from the channel section.

Das gattungsgemäße Verfahren ist bspw. aus der DE 196 07 913 A1 bekannt. Es dient zum Reinigen von Rohren und Kanälen, insbesondere Abwasserkanälen. Hierfür werden Kanalreinigungsfahrzeuge verwendet, wie sie bspw. in der WO 2004/111355 A1 beschrieben sind.The generic method is, for example, from the DE 196 07 913 A1 known. It is used to clean pipes and channels, especially sewers. For this purpose, sewer cleaning vehicles are used, as they are, for example, in the WO 2004/111355 A1 are described.

Die US 5,068,940 beschreibt ein Verfahren zur Kanalreinigung, wobei das Brauchwasser entweder einem Hydranten entnommen oder vom aus dem Kanal entnommenen Schmutzwasser abgetrennt und wieder verwendet wird.The US 5,068,940 describes a method for sewer cleaning, the service water is either taken from a hydrant or separated from the discharged from the canal wastewater and reused.

Die Kanalreinigungsfahrzeuge sind in vielen Fällen mit einer Wasseraufbereitungseinrichtung ausgestattet. Damit wird versucht, das aufgenommene Schmutzwasser so weit zu reinigen, dass es wieder als Brauchwasser eingesetzt werden kann. Derartige Kanalreinigungsfahrzeuge sind jedoch sehr aufwändig konstruiert und daher sehr kostspielig. Darüber hinaus ist das Reinigungsergebnis von Schmutzwasser zu Brauchwasser oft unbefriedigend. Daher wird häufig auf Frischwasser zurückgegriffen, so dass der Wasserverbrauch stark ansteigt.The sewer cleaning vehicles are in many cases equipped with a water treatment device. This is an attempt to clean the collected dirty water so far that it can be used again as process water. However, such sewer cleaning vehicles are very expensive to construct and therefore very expensive. In addition, the cleaning result of dirty water to service water is often unsatisfactory. Therefore, fresh water is often used, so that the water consumption increases sharply.

Die Aufgabe der vorliegenden Erfindung besteht darin, ein gattungsgemäßes Verfahren so weiterzuentwickeln, dass der Wasserverbrauch mit möglichst wenig Aufwand begrenzt wird.The object of the present invention is to develop a generic method so that the water consumption is limited with the least possible effort.

Die Lösung besteht in einem Verfahren mit den Merkmalen des Patentanspruchs 1. Erfindungsgemäß ist vorgesehen, dass das Brauchwasser aus einem bereits gereinigten Kanalabschnitt oder einem anderem noch zu reinigenden Kanalabschnitt entnommen wird, dass das aus dem bereits gereinigten Kanalabschnitt beziehungsweise aus dem anderen noch zu reinigenden Kanalabschnitt entnommene Brauchwasser einem Frischwassertank zugeführt wird. aus dem es zum Kanalreinigungsgerät geleitet wird.The solution consists in a method with the features of claim 1. According to the invention, it is provided that the service water is removed from an already cleaned channel section or another still to be cleaned channel section, that from the already cleaned channel section or from the other still to be cleaned channel section taken hot water is supplied to a fresh water tank. from where it is directed to the sewer cleaning device.

Unter einem hydrodynamischen Kanalreinigungsgerät wird im Zusammenhang mit der vorliegenden Erfindung ein Durchströmteil verstanden, das einen Wasseranschluss als Druckwassereintrittsöffnung und damit verbundene, an seinem hinteren Ende angeordnete Rückstoßöffnungen aufweist. Durch die Rückstoßkraft des Wassers erfährt das Kanalreinigungsgerät im Rohr oder Kanal eine Vorschubbewegung. Beispiele für derartige Kanalreinigungsgeräte sind so genannte Sohlenreiniger sowie Kanalreinigungsdüsen (vgl. DE 196 07 913 A1 ).In the context of the present invention, a hydrodynamic sewer cleaning device is understood to mean a throughflow part which has a water connection as a pressure water inlet opening and associated recoil openings arranged at its rear end. Due to the repulsive force of the water, the sewer cleaning device experiences an advancing movement in the pipe or channel. Examples of such sewer cleaning devices are so-called sole cleaners and sewer cleaning nozzles (cf. DE 196 07 913 A1 ).

Mit dem erfindungsgemäßen Verfahren wird keine Wasseraufbereitungseinrichtung für das aufgenommene Schmutzwasser mehr benötigt, so dass der apparative Aufwand und die Kosten für die Kanalreinigung deutlich reduziert werden. Dennoch ist keine Frischwasserzufuhr zum Betrieb des Kanalreinigungsgeräts notwendig. Das benötigte Brauchwasser kann, auch in unmittelbarer Nachbarschaft des zu reinigenden Kanalabschnitts, einem bereits gereinigten oder noch zu reinigenden Kanalabschnitt desselben Kanals oder auch einem anderen bereits gereinigten Kanal entnommen werden.With the method according to the invention no water treatment device for the collected dirty water is more needed, so that the equipment and the cost of the sewer cleaning are significantly reduced. Nevertheless, no fresh water supply to operate the sewer cleaning device is necessary. The required service water can, even in the immediate vicinity of the channel section to be cleaned, an already cleaned or still to be cleaned channel section of the same channel or another already cleaned channel are removed.

In beiden Fällen ist das aufgenommene Wasser vergleichsweise sauber und somit als Brauchwasser geeignet. In einem bereits gereinigten Kanalabschnitt haben sich, aufgrund des zeitlichen Abstands zum bereits erfolgten Reinigungsvorgang, die ggf. verbleibenden Schmutz- und Schwebstoffe am Boden des Kanals abgesetzt. Bei einem noch zu reinigenden Kanalabschnitt hat sich für den Fachmann überraschend herausgestellt, dass das über den im Kanalabschnitt abgesetzten Verunreinigungen stehende bzw. fließende Wasser sauber genug ist, um als Brauchwasser dienen zu können. Erst im Zuge der Reinigung des betreffenden Kanalabschnitts mit einem Kanalreinigungsgerät wird das über den Verunreinigungen stehende bzw. fließende Wasser so stark mit Schlamm und Schmutz verwirbelt, dass es zur Verwendung als Brauchwasser nicht mehr geeignet ist.In both cases, the absorbed water is relatively clean and therefore suitable as process water. In an already cleaned channel section, due to the time interval to the already performed cleaning process, any remaining dirt and suspended matter have settled at the bottom of the channel. In a still to be cleaned channel section has surprisingly been found by those skilled in the art that standing over the sedimented in the channel section impurities or flowing water is clean enough to serve as service water can. Only in the course of cleaning the respective channel section with a sewer cleaning device that is standing over the impurities or flowing Water is so swirling with mud and dirt that it is no longer suitable for use as process water.

Im Gegensatz hierzu sind die bekannten Wasseraufbereitungseinrichtungen in der relativ kurzen zur Verfügung stehenden Zeit nicht in der Lage, die mechanisch praktisch untrennbare Mischung aus Schlamm und Wasser aufzubereiten. Das erfindungsgemäße Verfahren ist für den Fachmann überraschend einfach, problemlos zu realisieren und kostengünstig. Das für den Betrieb des Kanalreinigungsgeräts benötigte Brauchwasser kann in unmittelbarer Nachbarschaft zum zu reinigenden Kanalabschnitt aufgenommen werden, so dass den Reinigungsprozess unterbrechende lange Fahrten zu Vorratsbehältern, Brunnen oder anderen Entnahmestellen entfallen.In contrast, the known water treatment facilities in the relatively short time available are not able to process the mechanically practically inseparable mixture of mud and water. The process according to the invention is surprisingly simple for a person skilled in the art to realize without problems and cost-effective. That for the operation The service water required by the sewer cleaning device can be accommodated in the immediate vicinity of the channel section to be cleaned so that long journeys to reservoirs, wells or other tapping points interrupting the cleaning process are eliminated.

Vorteilhafte Weiterbildungen ergeben sich aus den Unteransprüchen.Advantageous developments emerge from the subclaims.

Das erfindungsgemäße Verfahren wird zweckmäßigerweise mit einem gängigen Kanalreinigungsfahrzeug, das mit einem Brauchwassertank ausgerüstet ist, realisiert.The inventive method is advantageously realized with a common sewer cleaning vehicle, which is equipped with a hot water tank.

Es kann von Vorteil sein, zwischen zwei Kanalabschnitten eine Sperre einzurichten. Mit Hilfe einer solchen Sperre kann das im gesperrten Kanalabschnitt fließende Wasser aufgestaut werden, um die Entnahme von Brauchwasser zu erleichtern. Die Sperre kann bspw. als Überlaufsperre ("Bypass") ausgebildet sein, um die Menge des aufgestauten Wassers kontrollieren zu können.It may be advantageous to set up a lock between two channel sections. With the help of such a barrier, the water flowing in the blocked channel section can be dammed up to facilitate the removal of service water. The barrier may, for example, be designed as an overflow barrier ("bypass") in order to be able to control the amount of dammed up water.

Das in den Brauchwassertank überführte, aus einem geeigneten Kanalabschnitt entnommene Wasser wird als Brauchwasser zum Betreiben der Kanalreinigungseinrichtung verwendet. Dabei ist es zweckmäßig, dieses Wasser durch einen Sand- und/oder Schlammabscheider und/oder durch ein Sieb zur Hochdruckpumpe und von dort zum Kanalreinigungsgerät zu leiten. Damit werden verbliebene Schmutz- bzw. Schlammpartikel, die den Betrieb der Hochdruckpumpe stören könnten, auf einfache Weise entfernt.The transferred into the hot water tank, taken from a suitable channel section water is used as process water for operating the sewer cleaning device. It is expedient to pass this water through a sand and / or sludge and / or through a sieve to the high-pressure pump and from there to the sewer cleaning device. This will easily remove any dirt or sludge particles that could disturb the operation of the high-pressure pump.

Figur 1 zeigt schematisch ein Kanalreinigungsfahrzeug 10. Das Kanalreinigungsfahrzeug 10 steht im Ausführungsbeispiel neben einem Kanalschacht 22, der in einen zu reinigenden Kanalabschnitt 21 eines Kanals 20, im Ausführungsbeispiel eines unterirdischen Abwasserkanals, führt. Das Kanalreinigungsfahrzeug 10 ist in an sich bekannter Weise mit einem Frischwassertank 11 und einem Schmutzwassertank 12 ausgerüstet, die im Ausführungsbeispiel in einem gemeinsamen Behälter aufgenommen sind. Der Frischwassertank 11 ist mit einer Brauchwasserleitung 16 zur Aufnahme von Brauchwasser bzw. Frischwasser ausgerüstet. Aus dem Frischwassertank 11 wird das Brauchwasser mittels einer Hochdruckpumpe (nicht dargestellt) durch einen Druckwasserschlauch 13 zu einem daran angeschlossenen Kanalreinigungsgerät 14 geleitet (in Figur 1 als Sohlenreiniger dargestellt). Das Kanalreinigungsgerät 14 wird durch Beaufschlagung mit dem Druckwasser und die resultierende Rückstoßkraft des am hinteren Ende des Kanalreinigungsgeräts 14 austretenden Wasserstrahls in Richtung des Pfeils A im zu reinigenden Kanalabschnitt 21 vorwärts bewegt. Dadurch werden im Kanalabschnitt 21 vorhandene Verunreinigungen 30 gelockert. Im Anschluss wird das Kanalreinigungsgerät 14 in Richtung des Kanalschachts 22 zurückgezogen. Dabei werden die abgesetzten Verunreinigungen 30 durch den aus dem Kanalreinigungsgerät 14 austretenden Wasserstrahl ebenfalls in Richtung des Kanalschachts 22 zurück gespült, dabei aufgewirbelt und mit dem Wasser des Wasserstrahls vermischt. Die Mischung wird in Form von Schmutzwasser, d.h. mit Schmutz und Schlamm vermischtem Wasser, ggf. mit gröberen Verunreinigungen 30' über eine Saugleitung 15 in den Schmutzwassertank 12 gesaugt. FIG. 1 schematically shows a sewer cleaning vehicle 10. The sewer cleaning vehicle 10 is in the exemplary embodiment next to a manhole 22, which leads to a cleanable channel portion 21 of a channel 20, in the embodiment of an underground sewer. The sewer cleaning vehicle 10 is equipped in a conventional manner with a fresh water tank 11 and a dirty water tank 12, which are received in the embodiment in a common container. The fresh water tank 11 is equipped with a service water pipe 16 for receiving service water or fresh water. From the fresh water tank 11, the hot water by means of a high-pressure pump (not shown) through a pressurized water hose 13 to a connected thereto sewer cleaning device 14 (in FIG. 1 shown as sole cleaner). The sewer cleaning device 14 is moved forward by being exposed to the pressurized water and the resulting repulsive force of the water jet emerging at the rear end of the sewer cleaning device 14 in the direction of the arrow A in the channel section 21 to be cleaned. As a result, impurities 30 present in the channel section 21 are loosened. Subsequently, the sewer cleaning device 14 is retracted in the direction of the manhole 22. The settled impurities 30 are also flushed back through the emerging from the sewer cleaning device 14 water jet in the direction of the manhole 22, thereby fluidized and mixed with the water of the water jet. The mixture is drawn in the form of dirty water, ie mixed with dirt and sludge water, possibly with coarser impurities 30 'via a suction line 15 into the dirty water tank 12.

Das erfindungsgemäße Verfahren ist schematisch in Figur 2 dargestellt. Die Fließrichtung des Wassers im Kanal 20 in Richtung zu einer Kläranlage ist mit einem Pfeil B bezeichnet. Mittels des auf der linken Zeichnungsseite dargestellten Kanalreinigungsfahrzeugs10 wird, wie soeben beschrieben, ein Kanalabschnitt 21 von Verunreinigungen 30 befreit, wobei als Kanalreinigungsgerät 14 nun eine Kanalreinigungsdüse dargestellt ist. Wenn der Brauchwasservorrat, der zum Betrieb des Kanalreinigungsgeräts 14 dient, im Frischwassertank 11 aufgebraucht ist, werden das Kanalreinigungsgerät 14 und die Saugleitung 15 aus dem zu reinigenden Kanalabschnitt 21 herausgezogen. Das Kanalreinigungsfahrzeug 10 wird zu einem anderen Kanalschacht 22' bewegt. Der Kanalschacht 22' führt im Ausführungsbeispiel zu einem bereits gereinigten Kanalabschnitt 23 desjenigen Kanals 20, zu dem auch der zu reinigende Kanalabschnitt 21 gehört. Selbstverständlich kann auch ein Kanalschacht gewählt werden, der zu einem Kanalabschnitt eines anderen Kanals führt. Es ist jedoch praktikabler, lange Fahrtwege zu vermeiden und das Brauchwasser aus einem Kanalschacht in der Nachbarschaft des zu reinigenden Kanalabschnitts zu entnehmen. Ferner kann das Brauchwasser erfindungsgemäß auch einem noch zu reinigenden Kanalabschnitt entnommen werden, da das über den Verunreinigungen stehende bzw. fließende, aber noch nicht mit Schmutz und Schlamm verwirbelte Wasser zur Verwendung als Brauchwasser geeignet ist.The inventive method is schematically in FIG. 2 shown. The direction of flow of the water in the channel 20 in the direction of a sewage treatment plant is indicated by an arrow B. By means of the sewer cleaning vehicle 10 shown on the left side of the drawing, as just described, a channel section 21 is freed from contaminants 30, using as a channel cleaning device 14 now a sewer cleaning nozzle is shown. When the service water supply, which serves to operate the sewer cleaning device 14, is used up in the fresh water tank 11, the sewer cleaning device 14 and the suction line 15 are pulled out of the channel section 21 to be cleaned. The sewer cleaning vehicle 10 is moved to another manhole 22 '. In the exemplary embodiment, the manhole 22 'leads to an already cleaned channel section 23 of that channel 20, to which the channel section 21 to be cleaned also belongs. Of course, a manhole can be selected, which leads to a channel section of another channel. However, it is practicable to avoid long journeys and to take the service water from a manhole in the vicinity of the channel section to be cleaned. Furthermore, according to the invention, the service water can also be taken from a channel section still to be cleaned, since the water standing above the impurities or flowing but not yet entangled with dirt and sludge is suitable for use as process water.

Das im bereits gereinigten Kanalabschnitt 23 fließende Wasser ist nach der erfolgten Reinigung vergleichsweise sauber. Darüber hinaus ist in der Regel seit der Reinigung dieses Kanalabschnitts 23 genug Zeit vergangen, dass verbleibende Schmutzpartikel am Boden des Kanalabschnitts 23 sedimentieren konnten. Nun wird mittels der Brauchwasserleitung 16 das überstehende, vergleichsweise saubere Wasser aufgenommen und in den Frischwassertank 11 geleitet. Dies kann bspw. in an sich bekannter Weise mit Hilfe der Hochdruckpumpe oder einer Vakuumpumpe oder eines Injektorsystems (bspw. eine einen Überdruck erzeugende Strahlpumpe) erfolgen. Ggf. kann ein geeignetes, ausreichend großflächiges Sieb vorgeschaltet sein, um grobe Schmutzteile zurückzuhalten.The already flowing in the channel section 23 flowing water is relatively clean after cleaning. In addition, enough time has elapsed since the cleaning of this channel section 23 that residual dirt particles could sediment at the bottom of the channel section 23. Now, the supernatant, relatively clean water is received by means of the hot water line 16 and passed into the fresh water tank 11. This can be done, for example, in a manner known per se with the aid of the high-pressure pump or a vacuum pump or an injector system (for example a jet pump generating an overpressure). Possibly. can be preceded by a suitable sufficiently large sieve to retain coarse dirt.

Die Kanalabschnitte 21 und 23 werden zweckmäßigerweise mittels einer Sperre 17, im Ausführungsbeispiel einer Überlaufsperre, getrennt, so dass sich das im Kanalabschnitt 23 in Richtung des Pfeils B fließende Wasser staut und die Aufnahme von Brauchwasser erleichtert wird.The channel sections 21 and 23 are expediently separated by means of a barrier 17, in the exemplary embodiment of an overflow barrier, so that the water flowing in the channel section 23 in the direction of the arrow B accumulates water and the reception of hot water is facilitated.

Dieser Vorgang kann mit der fortschreitenden Reinigung des Kanals 20 an beliebigen Kanalschächten, die mit bereits gereinigten oder noch zu reinigenden Kanalabschnitten verbunden sind, beliebig oft wiederholt werden, in der Regel, bis die Aufnahmekapazität des Kanalreinigungsfahrzeugs 10 für Schmutzwasser erschöpft ist.This process can be associated with the progressive cleaning of the channel 20 at any manholes connected to already cleaned or still to be cleaned channel sections are, as often repeated, usually until the capacity of the sewer cleaning vehicle 10 is exhausted for dirty water.

Figur 3 zeigt ein Ausführungsbeispiel, bei dem der Frischwassertank 11 und der Schmutzwassertank 12 in einem gemeinsamen Behälter aufgenommen und von einer verschiebbaren Trennwand 18 getrennt sind. Den Trennwand 18 dient dazu, die Volumina der Tanks variabel zu halten und den Bedürfnissen des Einzelfalls anzupassen. Das mit dem erfindungsgemäßen Verfahren gewonnene Brauchwasser kann zum Betrieb eines Kanalreinigungsgeräts 14 aus dem Frischwassertank 11 durch einen Auslauftrichter 19 abfließen. Da das Brauchwasser im Frischwassertank 11 Reste 30" von Schmutz- und Schwebteilchen enthalten kann, wird das Brauchwasser zweckmäßigerweise in einen an sich bekannten Sand- und/oder Schlammabscheider 24 geleitet, in dem sich diese Reste von Schmutz- und Schwebteilchen als Sedimente 30"' absetzen. Anschließend kann das Brauchwasser noch durch ein ausreichend dimensioniertes Sieb 25 geführt werden, um letzte störende Partikel zu entfernen. Das so behandelte Brauchwasser wird über eine Hochdruckpumpe 26 dem Kanalreinigungsgerät 14 zugeführt. Diese abschließende, mechanisch einfache und nicht aufwändige Behandlung des aus dem Schmutzwasser gewonnenen Brauchwassers stellt den ungestörten Betrieb der Hochdruckpumpe sicher. FIG. 3 shows an embodiment in which the fresh water tank 11 and the waste water tank 12 are received in a common container and separated by a sliding partition 18. The partition wall 18 serves to keep the volumes of the tanks variable and to adapt to the needs of the individual case. The process water obtained by the method according to the invention can flow out of the fresh water tank 11 through a discharge funnel 19 for operating a sewer cleaning device 14. Since the process water in the fresh water tank 11 residues 30 "may contain dirt and suspended particles, the process water is conveniently passed into a known sand and / or sludge 24 in which these residues of dirt and suspended particles as sediments 30"' drop. Subsequently, the process water can still be passed through a sufficiently sized screen 25 to remove the last interfering particles. The process water thus treated is supplied via a high pressure pump 26 to the sewer cleaning device 14. This final, mechanically simple and inexpensive treatment of the process water obtained from the waste water ensures the undisturbed operation of the high-pressure pump.

Claims (5)

  1. Method for the cleaning of sewers with a hydrodynamic apparatus (14) for cleaning sewers, wherein within a sewer section (21) to be cleaned, the apparatus (14) is pressurized with service water and driven forward due to the reaction force of the resulting water jet, thereby relieving soilings (30), and wherein subsequently the apparatus (14) is retracted, thereby backwashing the soilings (30') with the water jet and removing them from the sewer section (21) in the form of wastewater, characterized in that the service water is taken from a sewer section (23) which is already cleaned or from another sewer section still to be cleaned, and that said service water taken from a sewer section (23) which is already cleaned or from another sewer section still to be cleaned is delivered to a freshwater tank (11), from which it is transferred to the apparatus (14).
  2. Method according to claim 1, characterized in that between the sewer section (21) to be cleaned and the sewer section the service water is taken from a locking device (17) is positioned.
  3. Method according to claim 2, characterized in that an overflow lock is positioned.
  4. Method according to claim 2 or 3, characterized in that the locking device (17) is used as a damming to dam the water that flows in the sewer section the service water is taken from.
  5. Method according to claim 1, characterized in that the service water is conducted from the freshwater tank (11) to the apparatus (14) through a separator (24) for sand and/or dirt and/or through a strainer (25).
