Description

  The present invention relates to a treatment apparatus and treatment method for organic matter-containing water containing organic matter.

  As a method of generating tap water from river water, lake water, groundwater, etc., treatment by a combination of agglomeration, precipitation, and filtration treatment is common, but these are mainly aimed at removing turbidity and sterilization, and organic matter When high raw water is mixed, the quality of the treated water is likely to deteriorate, and a treatment that combines ozone treatment and activated carbon treatment is usually performed in addition to aggregation, precipitation, and filtration treatment.

  An example of the water treatment apparatus for performing such a process is shown in FIG. The water treatment apparatus shown in FIG. 2 includes a raw water tank 50, a coagulation tank 52 for performing coagulation treatment, a precipitation tank 54 for performing precipitation treatment, an ozone reaction tank 56 for performing ozone treatment, and an activated carbon treatment. Is provided with an activated carbon tank 58, a sand filtration tank 60 for performing filtration, and a treated water tank 62.

  However, the treatment method combining ozone treatment and activated carbon treatment with agglomeration, precipitation, and filtration treatment has limitations on the oxidizing power of ozone, and may not necessarily be decomposed into carbon dioxide. In addition, intermediate products produced by ozone Cannot necessarily be efficiently adsorbed by activated carbon, and there is a problem that the amount of activated carbon used increases.

  For example, in Patent Document 1, an iron-based flocculant is added to water to be treated such as river water, lake water, and groundwater to aggregate water-suspended substances and soluble organic substances, and then aggregate using a ceramic membrane separator. A method of removing objects is described.

  However, such a method has a problem that the pH must be lowered to 4 to 6 in order to agglomerate the soluble organic matter. Moreover, even if it reduces pH to 4-6, a soluble organic substance may not be efficiently aggregated.

  In recent years, a treatment process combining activated carbon treatment and membrane filtration treatment has also been proposed as a countermeasure against organic substances.

  An example of the water treatment apparatus for performing such treatment is shown in FIG. The water treatment apparatus shown in FIG. 3 includes a raw water tank 70, an activated carbon tower 72 for performing activated carbon treatment, a membrane filtration apparatus 74 for performing membrane filtration treatment, and a treated water tank 76.

  However, even the method combining activated carbon treatment and membrane filtration treatment has a problem that the amount of activated carbon used increases, and when raw organic water contains high-molecular organic substances such as polysaccharides and proteins, There is also a problem that irreversible membrane clogging is likely to occur when activated carbon cannot be sufficiently adsorbed and a membrane filtration device is introduced for subsequent filtration (see Non-Patent Document 1, for example).

  Embodiments of the present invention will be described below. This embodiment is an example for carrying out the present invention, and the present invention is not limited to this embodiment.

  An outline of an example of an organic substance-containing water treatment apparatus according to an embodiment of the present invention is shown in FIG. The organic matter-containing water treatment device 1 includes an oxidation treatment tank 12 filled with an oxidation catalyst and a membrane filtration device 14. The organic matter-containing water treatment apparatus 1 may include a raw water tank 10 and a treated water tank 16.

  In the organic matter-containing water treatment apparatus 1 of FIG. 1, a raw water pipe 26 is connected to the inlet of the raw water tank 10, and the outlet of the raw water tank 10 and the oxidizing agent added water inlet of the oxidation treatment tank 12 are supplied with raw water via a pump 20. Connected by a pipe 28, the outlet of the oxidation treatment tank 12 and the inlet of the membrane filtration device 14 are connected by an oxidation treatment water pipe 30, and the membrane filtrate outlet of the membrane filtration device 14 and the inlet of the treatment water tank 16 are membrane filtration water. A treated water pipe 34 is connected to the treated water outlet of the treated water tank 16. Further, the outlet of the oxidant tank 18 is connected to the downstream side of the pump 20 of the raw water supply pipe 28 through the pump 22 by the oxidant pipe 36. A TOC measuring device 24 is installed in the raw water tank 10, and the TOC measuring device 24 and the pump 22 are connected by an electrical connection means or the like.

  The operation of the organic substance-containing water treatment method and the organic substance-containing water treatment apparatus 1 according to the present embodiment will be described.

  Organic substance-containing water including organic substances, which is raw water, is stored in the raw water tank 10 through the raw water pipe 26 as necessary. The organic substance-containing water is sent to the oxidation treatment tank 12 through the raw water supply pipe 28 by the pump 20, and the oxidant from the oxidant tank 18 passes through the oxidant pipe 36 by the pump 22 in the middle of the raw water supply pipe 28. (Oxidant addition step) and sent to the oxidation treatment tank 12 as oxidant-added water. In the present embodiment, the oxidant tank 18, the pump 22, and the oxidant pipe 36 function as oxidant addition means.

  In the oxidation treatment tank 12, the oxidant-added water is passed in an upward flow and is oxidized by the filled oxidation catalyst (oxidation treatment step). While the oxidant is added to the organic substance-containing water, the dissolved organic substance is oxidatively decomposed by passing water through the oxidation treatment tank 12 filled with the oxidation catalyst.

  The oxidized treated water subjected to the oxidation treatment is sent from the outlet of the oxidation treatment tank 12 to the membrane filtration device 14 through the oxidized treatment water pipe 30 (membrane filtration step). Among dissolved organic substances, high molecular organic substances, humic substances and the like are oxidized to be reduced in molecular weight, so that they can pass through the membrane of the membrane filtration device 14, so that it is possible to suppress clogging of the membrane of the membrane filtration device 14. Become. Therefore, in the membrane filtration device 14, organic substances, turbid components, and the like that have not been reduced in molecular weight are removed from the dissolved organic substances processed in the oxidation treatment step.

  The membrane filtrate of the membrane filtration device 14 is sent to the treated water tank 16 through the membrane filtrate pipe 32 and stored. A predetermined amount of treated water stored in the treated water tank 16 is discharged through the treated water pipe 34.

  After adding an oxidant to water containing organic matter, it is oxidized with an oxidation catalyst, and the oxidized water is filtered through a membrane. By doing so, the facility cost and running cost are lower than the conventional system, and the membrane can be operated stably. It becomes.

  In the organic matter-containing water treatment method and the organic matter-containing water treatment apparatus 1 according to this embodiment, raw water to which an oxidizing agent is added is passed through the oxidation treatment tank 12 at an upward flow of a high flow rate of, for example, 1,200 m / day or more. The device can be very compact. Furthermore, since the oxidation catalyst can be maintained in a fluid state, there is an advantage that the oxidation treatment tank 12 is hardly clogged even when the raw water becomes highly turbid. Furthermore, by combining an oxidizing agent and an oxidation catalyst, organic substances such as polysaccharides and proteins in raw water such as macromolecular organic substances can be efficiently decomposed. Compared with the system, it is much less likely to occur, and the membrane filtration device 14 can be operated stably for a long time. In addition, the initial cost and running cost can be greatly reduced compared to a conventional system combining ozone treatment and activated carbon treatment.

  In this embodiment, it is preferable to measure the TOC of the organic substance-containing water in the raw water tank 10 by the TOC measuring device 24 and to control the addition amount of the oxidizing agent based on the measured TOC. For example, the TOC measuring device 24 measures the TOC of organic substance-containing water in the raw water tank 10, and the pump 22 is controlled by a control device (not shown) based on the measured TOC to adjust the amount of oxidant added. do it.

  Investigate the rate of addition of oxidizers necessary for the degradation of organic substances such as polysaccharides and proteins in jar tests in advance, and automatically control the amount of oxidizer added according to the TOC concentration of raw water By adopting the system, it is possible to properly control the amount of chemicals added, so that waste of chemical injection can be eliminated, and even when sodium hypochlorite is used as the oxidizing agent, excessive trihalomethane is produced. There is also an advantage that can be prevented.

  The organic substance-containing water to be treated contains at least one organic substance. Examples of the organic substance include hydrophilic organic substances such as polysaccharides, proteins and polypeptides, high molecular organic substances such as biological treatment metabolites and dispersants, and humic substances such as humic acid and fulvic acid. In addition to high-molecular organic substances and humic substances, organic substances include decomposition products of humic acids, aliphatic low-molecular organic acids (with 2 or less carbon atoms), low-molecular organic acids such as low-molecular humins, alcohols, Low molecular weight organic substances such as low molecular weight weakly charged hydrophilic substances such as aldehydes, ketones and amino acids, and hydrophobic compounds such as hydrophobic aliphatic compounds may also be included. Here, the molecular weight of the high molecular organic substance is, for example, in the range of 100,000 or more and 2,000,000 or less, and the molecular weight of the humic substances is, for example, in the range of 500 or more and 100,000 or less, the decomposition product of humic acid, The molecular weight of the low molecular organic acid, low molecular organic substance, etc. is, for example, less than 500.

  The content of organic matter in the organic matter-containing water is such that the content of macromolecular organic matter such as polysaccharides and proteins is in the range of, for example, 0.02 to 2.0 mg / L, and the content of humic substances is, for example, 0.8. It is in the range of 02 to 4.0 mg / L.

  Examples of the organic substance-containing water to be treated include river water, ground water, lake water, and the like.

  Examples of the oxidizing agent include sodium hypochlorite, bleached powder, potassium permanganate, chlorine dioxide, hydrogen peroxide, potassium permanganate, sodium persulfate and the like. From the viewpoint of running cost, versatility, etc. Sodium chlorate and hydrogen peroxide are preferable, and hydrogen peroxide is more preferable.

  Examples of the oxidation catalyst include an oxidation catalyst in which manganese dioxide is granular and solid, manganese sand, and the like. Further, the manganese dioxide is not particularly limited, and examples thereof include manganese dioxide having α-type, β-type, ε-type, γ-type, λ-type, δ-type, and R-type crystal structures. From this point, manganese dioxide having a β-type crystal structure is preferable.

  The combination of the oxidizing agent and the oxidation catalyst is not particularly limited as long as it can efficiently decompose high-molecular organic substances such as polysaccharides and proteins in raw water and organic substances such as humic substances. For example, sodium hypochlorite can be used as an oxidizing agent, and a manganese dioxide catalyst having a β-type crystal structure can be used as an oxidation catalyst. When these combinations are used, when at least one of iron and manganese is contained in the organic substance-containing water that is the raw water, both iron and manganese oxidize and precipitate, and can be removed by the membrane filtration device 14 at the subsequent stage. Therefore, it becomes a more efficient system.

  When hydrogen peroxide is used as the oxidizing agent and a manganese dioxide catalyst having a β-type crystal structure is used as the oxidizing catalyst, it is possible to more efficiently decompose polysaccharides, high molecular organic substances such as proteins, and trihalomethanes. As a result, almost no generation occurs, so the system becomes more efficient.

The density of the oxidation catalyst is preferably 2.8 g / cm ³ or more. When the density of the oxidation catalyst is less than 2.8 g / cm ³ , the catalyst develops when water is passed at high speed, and the tank height of the oxidation treatment tank 12 may increase.

  The particle size of the oxidation catalyst is preferably in the range of 0.4 mm to 2.0 mm. When the particle size of the oxidation catalyst is less than 0.4 mm, the rate of expansion of the catalyst may increase, and a small particle size may flow out. When the particle size exceeds 2.0 mm, the catalyst surface area decreases and the reaction efficiency decreases. There is a case.

  The water flow velocity by the upward flow in the oxidation treatment tank 12 is, for example, a high linear velocity in the range of 1,000 m / day to 3,600 m / day, and in the range of 1,200 m / day to 2,400 m / day. Preferably there is. If the water flow rate due to the upward flow in the oxidation treatment tank 12 is less than 1,000 m / day, the catalyst may not flow substantially uniformly, and a single flow may occur. If it exceeds 3,600 m / day, There are cases where the expansion rate is increased and the tank height of the oxidation treatment tank 12 is increased.

  The reaction temperature in the oxidation treatment tank 12 is, for example, in the range of 1 ° C to 50 ° C.

  The filtration membrane used in the membrane filtration device 14 is not particularly limited as long as it can filter organic matter and turbid components that have not been reduced in molecular weight among the dissolved organic matter treated in the oxidation treatment step. UF membranes, MF membranes, etc., and UF membranes are preferred because fine catalyst particles (for example, less than 0.1 μm) and the like separated from the oxidation catalyst can be removed.

  When it is necessary to clean the membrane of the membrane filtration device 14, the membrane of the membrane filtration device 14 may be backwashed using at least a part of the treated water stored in the treatment water tank 16 (backwashing). Process).

  Moreover, you may wash | clean the oxidation treatment tank 12 by making water flow upwards in the oxidation treatment tank 12 as washing water using at least one part of the backwash waste_water | drain of the membrane filtration apparatus 14 (washing | cleaning process).

  In the organic matter-containing water treatment method and treatment apparatus according to the present embodiment, as described above, the oxidation treatment tank 12 is made to flow organic matter-containing water at an upward flow of a high linear velocity of 1,000 m / day or more, for example. Of course, the present invention can be applied to a method in which water containing organic matter flows through the oxidation treatment tank in a downward flow.

  The water flow velocity by the downward flow in the oxidation treatment tank 12 is, for example, in the range of 120 m / day to 720 m / day, and preferably in the range of 140 m / day to 360 m / day. If the water flow velocity due to the downward flow in the oxidation treatment tank 12 is less than 120 m / day, the device may become large, and if it exceeds 720 m / day, the turbidity becomes clogged and the water cannot pass through immediately. There is.

  The organic substance-containing water treatment apparatus and treatment method according to the present embodiment can be suitably applied in, for example, a water purification plant, groundwater use water treatment, and the like.

As the injection method, the TOC of raw water was measured online using a TOC measuring device (manufactured by Shimadzu Corporation, TOC-4200 type), and the injection amount was automatically adjusted according to the concentration. In the oxidation treatment tank, water was passed in an upward flow of 1,560 m / day. As the oxidation catalyst, manganese dioxide catalyst particles having an effective diameter of 0.5 mm and a density of 4.0 g / cm ³ and having a β-type crystal structure were used.

Moreover, it was confirmed that the water quality equal to or higher than that of Comparative Example 1 was obtained with respect to the treated water quality. Furthermore, the installation space for membrane filtration pretreatment can be reduced by 80% or more.
