  Using a screw press with an outer cylinder diameter of Φ300 mm, polymer flocculants with a chemical injection rate of 0.8% and 0.9% were added to the mixed raw sludge, and the agglomerated sludge was pressed into the screw press. Concentrated and dehydrated. The rotational speed of the screw shaft, cake moisture, and dry cake throughput were measured. The experimental results are shown in Tables 1 and 2.

  Table 1 is a comparison table of the rotational speed of the screw shaft and the cake moisture, in which the rotational speed (rpm) of the screw shaft is plotted on the horizontal axis and the cake moisture (%) is plotted on the vertical axis. The mixed raw sludge in which 0.8% of the polymer flocculant was poured had a cake water content of 78% when the rotation speed of the screw shaft was 0.2 rpm and a cake water content of 81.8% when the rotation speed was 0.5 rpm. . The mixed raw sludge to which 0.9% of the polymer flocculant was poured had a cake water content of 78% when the screw shaft rotation speed was 0.3 rpm, and a cake water content of 80.2% when the rotation speed was 0.5 rpm. . From this experimental result, it can be seen that the moisture content of the dewatered cake decreases as the rotational speed of the screw shaft is slower and the drug injection rate is higher.

  Table 2 is a comparison table of the rotational speed and the dry cake processing amount, where the horizontal axis represents the rotational speed (rpm) and the vertical axis represents the dry cake processing amount (kg / hr). Mixed sludge mixed with 0.8% polymer flocculant has a dry cake throughput of 22 kg / hr when the screw shaft rotation speed is 0.2 rpm and a screw shaft rotation speed of 0.5 rpm. The dry cake throughput was 49 kg / hr. The mixed raw sludge in which 0.9% of the polymer flocculant is poured is a dry cake throughput of 38 kg / hr when the screw shaft rotation speed is 0.3 rpm, and when the screw shaft rotation speed is 0.5 rpm. The dry cake throughput was 53 kg / hr. From this experimental result, it can be seen that the faster the number of rotations of the screw shaft and the higher the chemical injection rate, the higher the dry cake throughput.

  Table 3 is a comparison table of the dry cake treatment amount and the cake moisture. The horizontal axis represents cake moisture (%), and the vertical axis represents the dry cake treatment amount (kg / hr). Mixed sludge mixed with 0.8% polymer flocculant has a dry cake throughput of 22kg / hr when the cake moisture is 78.4% and a dry cake throughput of 49kg when the cake moisture is 81.8%. / Hr. Mixed sludge mixed with 0.9% polymer flocculant has a dry cake throughput of 37 kg / hr when the cake moisture is 78% and a dry cake throughput of 54 kg / hr when the cake moisture is 80.2%. Met. From this experimental result, it can be seen that the amount of dry cake processing increases as the cake moisture increases.

  As shown in Tables 1 and 2, the cake moisture increases as the number of rotations of the screw shaft increases, and the dry cake processing amount increases. Using a screw press having an outer cylinder diameter of Φ300 mm, the mixed raw sludge added by changing the waste paper is supplied to the screw press, and the rotation speed of the screw shaft is 0.20 rpm, 0.30 rpm, 0.50 rpm,. The cake was dehydrated by rotating at four stages of 75 rpm, and the cake moisture and dry cake throughput with respect to the waste paper addition rate were measured.

  Table 4 shows the relationship between the waste paper addition rate and the cake moisture, and the cake moisture when the waste paper is added to the mixed raw sludge by 5%, 10%, and 20% and dehydrated at four stages of rotation speed is shown. . The abscissa represents the waste paper addition rate (% vs. TS), and the ordinate represents the cake moisture (%). The cake moisture when the waste paper addition rate is 5% is approximately 74 to 79%, the cake moisture when the waste paper addition rate is 10% is approximately 72.5 to 77%, and the cake moisture when the waste paper addition rate is 20% is approximately 70. 5-75.5%. From this measurement result, it can be seen that the cake moisture decreases as the amount of used paper increases.

Table 5 shows the relationship between the waste paper addition rate and the amount of dry cake treated. 0.9% of the polymer flocculant was poured into the mixed raw sludge having a stock solution concentration of 5%, and the waste paper addition rate was 0%, 5%. %, 10%, 20%, and 30%, and the cake moisture when dehydrated at four stages of rotation speed is shown. The abscissa represents the waste paper addition rate (% vs. TS), and the ordinate represents the dry cake throughput (kg / h). The dry cake throughput when the waste paper addition rate is 5% is approximately 29 to 60 kg / h, the dry cake throughput when the waste paper addition rate is 10% is approximately 30 to 72 kg / h, and the dry cake throughput when the waste paper addition rate is 20%. The throughput was approximately 30 to 75 kg / h.
When the rotational speed of the screw shaft is 0.75 rpm when the waste paper addition rate is 30%, clogging occurs and dehydration is impossible, and when the rotational speed of the other screw shaft is 0.20 rpm, 0.30 rpm, 0.50 rpm The dry cake processing amount is also 25 to 60 kg / h, and it seems that the processing amount decreases due to clogging. From the test results, it can be seen that 20% is the optimal waste paper addition rate.

  The constant moisture content control method and the constant moisture content control device in the screw press according to the present invention adjust the purified water sludge, the polymer flocculant, and the waste paper to the screw press that concentrates and dehydrates while controlling the supply pressure and flow rate of the agglomerated slurry. Concentrated dewatering is performed while the purified water sludge injected into the sewage sludge reduces the relative cake moisture, and the polymer flocculant to be poured and the added waste paper fibers cooperate to adsorb sludge particles, It can be formed to reduce water content and improve dehydration. Corresponding to the concentration fluctuation of the sewage sludge, the purified water sludge, the flocculant, and the waste paper can be adjusted to reduce the relative cake moisture to obtain a target dehydrated cake having a low water content. Purified water and waste paper are cheaper than polymer flocculants, reducing running costs, obtaining a cake with a uniform low moisture content, and facilitating constant cake moisture control. Therefore, when used in a sewage treatment plant or a human waste treatment plant close to the water purification plant, the running cost is reduced and the cake moisture constant control is facilitated.

It is a flowchart of water | moisture-content constant control of the dewatering cake of the screw press which concerns on this invention. Similarly, it is a block diagram of moisture content constant control in a screw press.
