Description

本発明は、廃水処理システム、廃水処理装置の空気供給量制御装置、廃水処理装置の空気供給量制御方法に関する。   The present invention relates to a wastewater treatment system, an air supply amount control device for a wastewater treatment device, and an air supply amount control method for a wastewater treatment device.

生活排水または工場排水等の廃水を処理する廃水処理システムとして、標準活性汚泥法をはじめ、様々な処理法が実用化されている。廃水処理システムにおいては、反応槽内に処理対象の廃水を流入させつつ、この反応槽内に存在する好気性微生物に対して空気を供給する曝気処理を行う。これによって、反応槽内の廃水中に含まれる有機物は、好気性微生物の生物処理によって分解され、安定した処理水質が得られる。   As a wastewater treatment system for treating wastewater such as domestic wastewater or factory wastewater, various treatment methods including a standard activated sludge method have been put into practical use. In the wastewater treatment system, an aeration process is performed in which air is supplied to aerobic microorganisms existing in the reaction tank while the wastewater to be treated flows into the reaction tank. As a result, the organic matter contained in the waste water in the reaction tank is decomposed by the biological treatment of the aerobic microorganism, and a stable treated water quality is obtained.

反応槽内での曝気処理用の空気は、送風管を介して送風機から供給される。例えば特許文献1に示されるように、送風機は、反応槽内での生物処理に必要な空気量となるように、供給する空気量を制御する。また、送風機は、送風管内での圧力が一定になるように空気を供給する場合がある。送風管内の圧力を一定にする場合、送風管内の圧力は、反応槽内での生物処理を確実に行うために、必要な量の空気を供給しきれるような値に設定される。そのため、送風管内の圧力は、反応槽に流入した廃水の負荷(例えば生物処理対象であるアンモニア性窒素の濃度及びBOD等)が最も大きい場合を想定し、その想定した最大負荷においても生物処理が十分できるような値に設定される。   Air for aeration treatment in the reaction tank is supplied from a blower through a blower pipe. For example, as shown in Patent Document 1, the blower controls the amount of air to be supplied so that the amount of air necessary for biological treatment in the reaction tank is obtained. The blower may supply air so that the pressure in the blower pipe is constant. When the pressure in the blow pipe is made constant, the pressure in the blow pipe is set to such a value that a necessary amount of air can be supplied in order to reliably perform biological treatment in the reaction tank. Therefore, the pressure in the blast pipe is assumed to have the largest load of wastewater that has flowed into the reaction tank (for example, the concentration of ammoniacal nitrogen and BOD that are biological treatment targets), and biological treatment is possible even at the assumed maximum load. It is set to a value that is sufficient.

特開平9−47780号公報Japanese Patent Laid-Open No. 9-47780

しかし、最大負荷を想定して送風管内の圧力を設定した場合、反応槽内の負荷が最大負荷よりも低い場合、必要以上の空気を供給してしまうことになる。この場合、送風管内に設けた弁で反応槽内への空気量を制限するが、送風機自体は最大負荷を想定した圧力となるよう空気供給しているため、その送風に要するエネルギーの一部が無駄になる。すなわち、送風管内の圧力を一定にするよう制御した場合、送風に要するエネルギー消費が、実際に必要な送風に要するエネルギーより高くなる。   However, when the pressure in the blast pipe is set assuming the maximum load, if the load in the reaction tank is lower than the maximum load, more air than necessary is supplied. In this case, although the amount of air into the reaction vessel is limited by a valve provided in the blower pipe, the blower itself supplies air so as to have a pressure assuming a maximum load. It becomes useless. That is, when the pressure in the blower pipe is controlled to be constant, the energy consumption required for blowing air is higher than the energy required for actually blowing.

本発明は、上記に鑑みてなされたものであって、送風に要するエネルギー消費を抑制する廃水処理システム、空気供給量制御装置及び空気供給量制御方法を提供することを目的とする。   This invention is made | formed in view of the above, Comprising: It aims at providing the wastewater treatment system, the air supply amount control apparatus, and the air supply amount control method which suppress the energy consumption required for ventilation.

(廃水処理システムの構成)
図1は、本実施形態に係る廃水処理システムの模式図である。図1に示すように、本実施形態に係る廃水処理システム1は、反応槽10A、10B、10C、送風ユニット20、送風管30、及び空気供給量制御部40を有する。廃水処理システム1は、空気供給量制御部40で反応槽10内に供給する空気量を制御しつつ、送風ユニット20からの空気を送風管30で反応槽10内に供給し、反応槽10内の活性汚泥により、内部の廃水Wの生物処理を行う。
(Configuration of wastewater treatment system)
FIG. 1 is a schematic diagram of a wastewater treatment system according to this embodiment. As shown in FIG. 1, the wastewater treatment system 1 according to this embodiment includes reaction tanks 10A, 10B, and 10C, a blower unit 20, a blower pipe 30, and an air supply amount control unit 40. The wastewater treatment system 1 supplies the air from the blower unit 20 into the reaction tank 10 through the blower pipe 30 while controlling the amount of air supplied into the reaction tank 10 with the air supply amount control unit 40. The internal wastewater W is biologically treated with the activated sludge.

反応槽10A、10B、10Cは、内部に散気部12を有し、活性汚泥が貯留される槽である。反応槽10A、10B、10Cは、図示しない沈殿池から廃水Wが流入する。廃水Wは、図示しない沈殿池によって原水から一部の固形物が分離された後の水である。ここでいう原水とは、家庭や工場などから排出された排水及び下水である。散気部12は、送風ユニット20から供給された空気で、貯留した活性汚泥を曝気する。反応槽10A、10B、10Cは、曝気された活性汚泥によって廃水Wに生物処理を行い、生物処理を行った後の廃水Wである処理水を、図示しない固液分離槽に排出する。この図示しない固液分離槽では、処理水についてさらに固液分離処理を行い、その固液分離処理後の水を、例えば消毒処理後に外部環境に排出する。   Reaction tank 10A, 10B, 10C is a tank which has the aeration part 12 inside, and stores activated sludge. In the reaction tanks 10A, 10B, and 10C, waste water W flows from a sedimentation basin (not shown). The waste water W is water after a part of solid matter is separated from raw water by a sedimentation basin (not shown). Raw water here refers to waste water and sewage discharged from homes and factories. The air diffuser 12 aerates the stored activated sludge with the air supplied from the blower unit 20. The reaction tanks 10A, 10B, and 10C perform biological treatment on the waste water W using the aerated activated sludge, and discharge the treated water, which is the waste water W after the biological treatment, to a solid-liquid separation tank (not shown). In this solid-liquid separation tank (not shown), the treated water is further subjected to solid-liquid separation processing, and the water after the solid-liquid separation processing is discharged to the external environment, for example, after disinfection processing.

反応槽10A、10B、10Cは、それぞれ並列に設けられている。すなわち、反応槽10A、10B、10Cには、沈殿池からそれぞれ並列に廃水Wが供給される。ただし、反応槽10A、10B、10Cは、互いに直列に配置されていてもよい。すなわち、反応槽10Aに反応槽10Bが接続され、反応槽10Aで生物処理した後の廃水Wを反応槽10Bに導入し、反応槽10B内で再度生物処理を行ってもよい。また、反応槽10A、10B、10Cは、合計3つの好気槽であるが、その数も任意である。また、反応槽10A、10B、10Cには、嫌気槽や無酸素槽が直列に接続されていてもよい。以下、反応槽10A、10B、10Cを互いに区別しない場合は、反応槽10と記載する。   The reaction vessels 10A, 10B, and 10C are provided in parallel. That is, the waste water W is supplied to the reaction tanks 10A, 10B, and 10C in parallel from the settling basin. However, the reaction vessels 10A, 10B, and 10C may be arranged in series with each other. That is, the reaction tank 10A may be connected to the reaction tank 10A, the waste water W after biological treatment in the reaction tank 10A may be introduced into the reaction tank 10B, and the biological treatment may be performed again in the reaction tank 10B. Moreover, although reaction tank 10A, 10B, 10C is a total of three aerobic tanks, the number is also arbitrary. Moreover, an anaerobic tank and an oxygen-free tank may be connected in series with the reaction tanks 10A, 10B, and 10C. Hereinafter, when the reaction vessels 10A, 10B, and 10C are not distinguished from each other, they are referred to as the reaction vessel 10.

The blowers 22A, 22B, 22C, and 22D are blowers having functions similar to each other. The blowers 22A, 22B, 22C, and 22D introduce air from the outside through the inlet vane, and exhaust the air introduced by the rotating blade portion. In the blowers 22A, 22B, 22C, and 22D, the opening degree of the inlet vane can be adjusted, and the rotation speed of the blade portion can also be adjusted. The blowers 22 </ b> A, 22 </ b> B, 22 </ b> C, and 22 </ b> D are connected to the blower pipe 30 in parallel with each other, and discharge air to the blower pipe 30. Hereinafter, the blowers 22 </ b> A, 22 </ b> B, 22 </ b> C, and 22 </ b> D are referred to as the blower 22 when not distinguished from each other. In addition, the number of the air blowers 22 which the air blow unit 20 has is arbitrary.

送風管30は、内部に空気を導通する管である。送風管30は、導入管31と、母管32と、支管34A、34B、34Cと、導入弁36とを有する。導入管31は、一方の端部が分岐してそれぞれ送風機22に接続されており、送風機22から空気が供給される。導入管31は、他方の端部が母管32に接続されており、各送風機22からの空気を合流させて、合流させた空気Aを母管32に導通する。母管32は、一本の管である。母管32は、空気Aの流れの上流側、すなわち送風機22側から、支管34C、34B、34Aがこの順で接続されている。   The blower pipe 30 is a pipe that conducts air inside. The blower pipe 30 includes an introduction pipe 31, a mother pipe 32, branch pipes 34 </ b> A, 34 </ b> B, 34 </ b> C, and an introduction valve 36. One end of the introduction pipe 31 is branched and connected to the blower 22, and air is supplied from the blower 22.

It is a control device. Details of the control unit 42 will be described later. Note that the air supply amount control unit 40 controls the air supply amount to the plurality of reaction tanks 10, but one air supply amount control unit 40 is provided for each reaction tank 10. The air supply amount may be controlled.

硝酸計43は、各反応槽10内に設けられており、反応槽10内の廃水Wの硝酸濃度を測定するセンサである。廃水Wの硝酸とは、本実施形態においては、硝酸(HNO3)、亜硝酸(HNO2)、硝酸性窒素(NO3−N)、亜硝酸性窒素(NO2−N)、硝酸性窒素と亜硝酸性窒素との集合、および硝酸と亜硝酸とをともに示すNOを含む概念である。すなわち、本実施形態における硝酸濃度は、硝酸、亜硝酸、硝酸性窒素、亜硝酸性窒素、硝酸性窒素と亜硝酸性窒素との集合、および硝酸と亜硝酸とをともに示すNOの、いずれの濃度であってもよい。 The nitric acid meter 43 is a sensor that is provided in each reaction tank 10 and measures the nitric acid concentration of the waste water W in the reaction tank 10.

アンモニア計44は、各反応槽10内に設けられており、反応槽10内の廃水Wのアンモニア濃度を測定するセンサである。廃水Wのアンモニア濃度とは、本実施形態においては、アンモニアおよびアンモニア性窒素を含む概念である。すなわち、本実施形態におけるアンモニア濃度は、アンモニア(NH3)およびアンモニア性窒素(NH4−N)のいずれの濃度であってもよい。すなわち、硝酸計43及びアンモニア計44は、反応槽10内の廃水Wの状態を計測するといえる。なお、水質測定部、すなわち硝酸計43及びアンモニア計44は、反応槽10毎に1つずつ設けられているが、複数の反応槽10に1つの水質測定部が設けられている構成であってもよい。 The ammonia meter 44 is a sensor that is provided in each reaction tank 10 and measures the ammonia concentration of the waste water W in the reaction tank 10. The ammonia concentration of the waste water W is a concept including ammonia and ammoniacal nitrogen in the present embodiment. That is, the ammonia concentration in this embodiment may be any concentration of ammonia (NH 3 ) and ammoniacal nitrogen (NH 4 —N). That is, it can be said that the nitric acid meter 43 and the ammonia meter 44 measure the state of the waste water W in the reaction tank 10. In addition, although the water quality measurement part, ie, the nitric acid meter 43 and the ammonia meter 44, are provided for each reaction tank 10, one water quality measurement part is provided in the plurality of reaction tanks 10.

(反応槽内での水処理)
次に、反応槽10内での廃水Wの生物処理について説明する。反応槽10内では、好気性条件下で活性汚泥中の好気性微生物である硝化菌により、硝化反応、すなわち、被処理水中のアンモニア性窒素(NH4−N)が、下記の反応式(1)〜(3)のように、亜硝酸性窒素(NO−N)や硝酸性窒素(NO−N)に硝化される。
(Water treatment in reaction tank)
Next, biological treatment of the waste water W in the reaction tank 10 will be described. In the reaction tank 10, nitrification reaction, that is, ammonia nitrogen (NH 4 -N) in the water to be treated is expressed by the following reaction formula (1) by nitrifying bacteria that are aerobic microorganisms in activated sludge under aerobic conditions. As in (3) to (3), it is nitrified to nitrite nitrogen (NO 2 —N) or nitrate nitrogen (NO 3 —N).

NH+O+2e-+2H→NHOH+HO …(1)
NHOH+HO→NO -+5H+4e …(2)
NO -+0.5O→NO - …(3)
NH 3 + O 2 + 2e + 2H + → NH 2 OH + H 2 O (1)
NH 2 OH + H 2 O → NO 2 + 5H + + 4e (2)
NO 2 + 0.5O 2 → NO 3 (3)

一方、反応槽10における被処理水中の酸素量が少ない領域においては、酸素量が少ないことから脱窒菌による脱窒反応(嫌気反応)が発生する。この脱窒反応を生じる領域(脱窒反応領域)に充分な炭素源を供給すれば、脱窒反応も充分に進行させることができる。その結果、反応槽10において部分的に、脱窒反応が行われる領域が発生する。これにより、下記の反応式(4)〜(10)のように、硝化が不充分であることによって発生した亜酸化窒素(N2O)ガスを分解したり、亜酸化窒素を発生させることなく亜硝酸を還元したりして、窒素と二酸化炭素とに分解させて、窒素除去を行うことができる。 On the other hand, in a region where the amount of oxygen in the water to be treated in the reaction tank 10 is small, a denitrification reaction (anaerobic reaction) due to denitrifying bacteria occurs because the amount of oxygen is small. If a sufficient carbon source is supplied to a region where the denitrification reaction occurs (denitrification reaction region), the denitrification reaction can sufficiently proceed. As a result, a region where the denitrification reaction is performed partially occurs in the reaction tank 10. As a result, as shown in the following reaction formulas (4) to (10), nitrous oxide (N 2 O) gas generated due to insufficient nitrification is not decomposed or nitrous oxide is not generated. Nitrous acid can be reduced or decomposed into nitrogen and carbon dioxide to remove nitrogen.

NO +3H+2e → 0.5NO+1.5HO …(4)
NO +H+2(H) → 0.5NO+1.5HO …(5)
NO +H+5(H) → 0.5N+3HO …(6)
NO +2H → NO +HO …(7)
NO +H+(H) → NO+HO …(8)
NO+(H) → 0.5NO+0.5HO …(9)
O+2(H) → N+HO …(10)
NO 2 + 3H + + 2e → 0.5N 2 O + 1.5H 2 O (4)
NO 2 + H + +2 (H) → 0.5N 2 O + 1.5H 2 O (5)
NO 3 + H + +5 (H) → 0.5N 2 + 3H 2 O (6)
NO 3 + 2H → NO 2 + H 2 O (7)
NO 2 + H + + (H) → NO + H 2 O (8)
NO + (H) → 0.5N 2 O + 0.5H 2 O (9)
N 2 O + 2 (H) → N 2 + H 2 O (10)

硝酸計43は、反応槽10内の廃水Wの硝酸濃度を測定することで、脱窒反応の進行度、すなわち硝酸の分解度合いを検出する。アンモニア計44は、反応槽10内の廃水Wのアンモニア濃度を測定することで、硝化反応の進行度、すなわちアンモニアの分解度合いを検出する。空気供給量制御部40は、この硝酸計43とアンモニア計44との測定結果に基づき、反応槽10に供給する空気量を制御する。例えば、空気供給量制御部40は、硝酸濃度が所定の数値範囲内より高い場合、脱窒反応が不足しているとして、反応槽10に供給する空気量を低下させ、硝酸濃度が所定の数値範囲内より低い場合、脱窒反応が進み過ぎて硝化反応が不足しているとして、反応槽10に供給する空気量を増加させる。同様に、空気供給量制御部40は、アンモニア濃度が所定の数値範囲内より高い場合、硝化反応が不足しているとして、反応槽10に供給する空気量を増加させ、アンモニア濃度が所定の数値範囲内より低い場合、硝化反応が進み過ぎて脱窒反応が不足しているとして、反応槽10に供給する空気量を低下させる。   The nitric acid meter 43 detects the degree of progress of the denitrification reaction, that is, the degree of decomposition of nitric acid, by measuring the nitric acid concentration of the wastewater W in the reaction tank 10. The ammonia meter 44 detects the degree of progress of the nitrification reaction, that is, the degree of decomposition of ammonia, by measuring the ammonia concentration of the waste water W in the reaction tank 10. The air supply amount control unit 40 controls the amount of air supplied to the reaction tank 10 based on the measurement results of the nitric acid meter 43 and the ammonia meter 44. For example, when the nitric acid concentration is higher than a predetermined numerical range, the air supply amount control unit 40 determines that the denitrification reaction is insufficient and reduces the amount of air supplied to the reaction tank 10 so that the nitric acid concentration is a predetermined numerical value. When the temperature is lower than the range, the amount of air supplied to the reaction tank 10 is increased on the assumption that the denitrification reaction proceeds so much that the nitrification reaction is insufficient. Similarly, when the ammonia concentration is higher than the predetermined numerical range, the air supply amount control unit 40 determines that the nitrification reaction is insufficient and increases the amount of air supplied to the reaction tank 10 so that the ammonia concentration is a predetermined numerical value. When the temperature is lower than the range, the amount of air supplied to the reaction tank 10 is decreased because the nitrification reaction proceeds too much and the denitrification reaction is insufficient.

硝酸計43は、アンモニア計44よりも、反応槽10内における廃水Wの上流側、すなわち廃水が供給される側(図示しない沈殿池側)に配置される。反応槽10内は、廃水Wの上流側から下流側に向かって、すなわち廃水Wが供給される側(図示しない沈殿池側)から生物処理後の処理水が排出される側(図示しない固形分離槽側)に向かって、上流側処理領域と下流側処理領域とに区分される。上流側領域と下流側領域は、硝化処理及び脱窒処理との進行度合いが互いに異なる領域である。上流側領域は、廃水Wの上流側の領域であり、硝化処理と脱窒処理とが、例えばほぼ同一の所定比率で進行する領域である。下流側領域は、上流側領域よりも廃水Wの下流側の領域であり、上流側領域と同様に硝化処理と脱窒処理とが行われている。ただし、下流側領域の硝化処理の進行速度は、上流側領域の硝化処理の進行速度、及び下流側領域の脱窒処理の進行速度より高い。硝酸計43は、この上流側領域と下流側領域との間(例えば廃水Wの上流側から下流側に沿った場合の中央位置)に設けられ、アンモニア計44は、硝酸計43より下流側の下流側領域に配置される。   The nitric acid meter 43 is arranged on the upstream side of the waste water W in the reaction tank 10, that is, on the side where the waste water is supplied (the sedimentation basin side not shown) than the ammonia meter 44. The inside of the reaction tank 10 is from the upstream side to the downstream side of the waste water W, that is, the side from which the treated water is discharged from the side where the waste water W is supplied (the sedimentation pond side not shown) (the solid separation not shown). The tank is divided into an upstream processing area and a downstream processing area. The upstream region and the downstream region are regions in which progress degrees of the nitrification treatment and the denitrification treatment are different from each other. The upstream region is a region on the upstream side of the waste water W, and is a region where the nitrification process and the denitrification process proceed at substantially the same predetermined ratio, for example. The downstream region is a region on the downstream side of the waste water W from the upstream region, and nitrification treatment and denitrification treatment are performed as in the upstream region. However, the progress speed of the nitrification process in the downstream area is higher than the progress speed of the nitrification process in the upstream area and the progress speed of the denitrification process in the downstream area. The nitric acid meter 43 is provided between the upstream region and the downstream region (for example, the central position when the waste water W extends from the upstream side to the downstream side), and the ammonia meter 44 is located downstream of the nitric acid meter 43. Arranged in the downstream region.

以上のように、空気供給量制御部40は、硝酸計43とアンモニア計44との検出結果に基づき、反応槽10内での空気量を制御して、反応槽10内で硝化処理と脱窒処理との両方の生物処理を含む同時硝化脱窒制御を実行する。ただし、空気供給量制御部40は、反応槽10内で同時硝化脱窒処理を行わなくてもよい。例えば、空気供給量制御部40は、硝酸計43及びアンモニア計44のいずれか一方を有していてもよく、その測定結果に基づき反応槽10内での空気量を制御してもよい。また、例えば、空気供給量制御部40は、硝酸計43及びアンモニア計44の代わりに、水質測定部として、反応槽10内の廃水Wの溶存酸素量を測定する溶存酸素濃度計を有していてもよい。この場合、空気供給量制御部40は、溶存酸素計が測定した廃水W中の溶存酸素量に基づき、溶存酸素量が一定の値となるように反応槽10に供給する空気量を制御する(溶存酸素量制御)。この溶存酸素量制御の場合、反応槽10に対し直列に嫌気槽や無酸素槽を接続し、反応槽10で硝化処理した後の廃水Wを脱窒処理してもよい。   As described above, the air supply amount control unit 40 controls the amount of air in the reaction tank 10 based on the detection results of the nitric acid meter 43 and the ammonia meter 44, and performs nitrification treatment and denitrification in the reaction tank 10. Perform simultaneous nitrification and denitrification control including both biological treatment and treatment. However, the air supply amount control unit 40 may not perform the simultaneous nitrification denitrification process in the reaction tank 10. For example, the air supply amount control unit 40 may have one of the nitric acid meter 43 and the ammonia meter 44, and may control the air amount in the reaction tank 10 based on the measurement result. In addition, for example, the air supply amount control unit 40 has a dissolved oxygen concentration meter that measures the amount of dissolved oxygen in the waste water W in the reaction tank 10 as a water quality measurement unit instead of the nitric acid meter 43 and the ammonia meter 44. May be. In this case, the air supply amount control unit 40 controls the amount of air supplied to the reaction tank 10 based on the amount of dissolved oxygen in the waste water W measured by the dissolved oxygen meter so that the amount of dissolved oxygen becomes a constant value ( Control of dissolved oxygen amount). In the case of this dissolved oxygen amount control, an anaerobic tank or an oxygen-free tank may be connected in series with the reaction tank 10, and the waste water W after nitrification in the reaction tank 10 may be denitrified.

また、空気供給量制御部40は、硝酸計43及びアンモニア計44の代わりに、水質測定部として、反応槽10内の廃水Wの流入量を計測する流量計を有していてもよい。この場合、空気供給量制御部40は、流量計が測定した反応槽10内への廃水W中の流入量に基づき、その量の廃水Wを目標濃度とするために反応槽10に供給する空気量を制御する(流入水量制御)。この流入量制御の場合、反応槽10に対し直列に嫌気槽や無酸素槽を接続し、反応槽10で硝化処理した後の廃水Wを脱窒処理してもよい。このように、廃水処理システム1は、水質測定部の測定結果に基づき反応槽10に供給する空気量を制御するものであれば、以上説明した同時硝化脱窒制御、溶存酸素量制御、流入水量制御以外の任意の空気量制御を行ってもよい。また、廃水処理システム1は、異なる処理を行う系列(例えば、同時硝化脱窒制御を行う系列と溶存酸素量制御を行う系列)を区分して、反応槽10毎に各処理のいずれか(例えば、同時硝化脱窒制御をと溶存酸素量制御を行う系列とのいずれか)を行わせてもよい。   The air supply amount control unit 40 may have a flow meter that measures the inflow amount of the waste water W in the reaction tank 10 as a water quality measurement unit instead of the nitric acid meter 43 and the ammonia meter 44. In this case, the air supply amount control unit 40 is based on the inflow amount of the waste water W into the reaction tank 10 measured by the flow meter, and supplies air to the reaction tank 10 to set the amount of waste water W to the target concentration. The amount is controlled (inflow water amount control). In the case of this inflow control, an anaerobic tank or an oxygen-free tank may be connected in series to the reaction tank 10, and the waste water W after nitrification in the reaction tank 10 may be denitrified. Thus, if the wastewater treatment system 1 controls the amount of air supplied to the reaction tank 10 based on the measurement result of the water quality measurement unit, the simultaneous nitrification denitrification control, dissolved oxygen amount control, inflow water amount described above Arbitrary air amount control other than control may be performed. In addition, the wastewater treatment system 1 divides a series for performing different treatments (for example, a series for performing simultaneous nitrification denitrification control and a series for performing dissolved oxygen amount control), and performs any one of the respective treatments (for example, Any one of the simultaneous nitrification denitrification control and the dissolved oxygen amount control system) may be performed.

(制御部の構成)
次に、空気供給量制御部40が有する制御部42について説明する。図2は、本実施形態に係る制御部の構成を示すブロック図である。制御部42は、例えばコンピュータなどの演算装置である。図2に示すように、制御部42は、水質測定結果取得部70と、必要空気量取得部72と、目標管内圧算出部74と、送風制御部76と、導入空気制御部78とを有する。
(Configuration of control unit)
Next, the control unit 42 included in the air supply amount control unit 40 will be described. FIG. 2 is a block diagram illustrating a configuration of the control unit according to the present embodiment. The control unit 42 is an arithmetic device such as a computer. As shown in FIG. 2, the control unit 42 includes a water quality measurement result acquisition unit 70, a necessary air amount acquisition unit 72, a target pipe pressure calculation unit 74, a ventilation control unit 76, and an introduction air control unit 78. .

水質測定結果取得部70は、硝酸計43及びアンモニア計44から、反応槽10内の廃水Wの状態、すなわち廃水Wの硝酸濃度及びアンモニア濃度の測定結果を取得する。なお、水質計測部が溶存酸素計である場合、水質測定結果取得部70は、廃水Wの状態として、反応槽10内の溶存酸素量を取得する。また、水質計測部が流量計である場合、水質測定結果取得部70は、廃水Wの状態として、反応槽10内に流入した廃水Wの量を取得する。すなわち、反応槽10内の廃水Wの状態とは、水質計測部が計測した計測対象である。言い換えれば、水質計測部は、廃水Wの状態として、反応槽10内の廃水Wの硝酸濃度、アンモニア濃度、溶存酸素量、及び流入量の少なくともいずれか一つを計測するということができる。   The water quality measurement result acquisition unit 70 acquires the state of the waste water W in the reaction tank 10 from the nitric acid meter 43 and the ammonia meter 44, that is, the measurement results of the nitric acid concentration and ammonia concentration of the waste water W. When the water quality measurement unit is a dissolved oxygen meter, the water quality measurement result acquisition unit 70 acquires the amount of dissolved oxygen in the reaction tank 10 as the state of the waste water W. When the water quality measurement unit is a flow meter, the water quality measurement result acquisition unit 70 acquires the amount of waste water W that has flowed into the reaction tank 10 as the state of the waste water W. That is, the state of the waste water W in the reaction tank 10 is a measurement target measured by the water quality measurement unit. In other words, the water quality measurement unit can measure at least one of the nitric acid concentration, the ammonia concentration, the dissolved oxygen amount, and the inflow amount of the waste water W in the reaction tank 10 as the state of the waste water W.

必要空気量取得部72は、水質測定結果取得部70が取得した廃水Wの状態の測定結果に基づき、反応槽10内の廃水Wの水質を所定の目標水質にするための必要空気量の、全反応槽10における総量である総必要空気量を取得する。具体的には、必要空気量取得部72は、関係記憶部82と、必要空気量算出部84とを有する。なお、ここでいう水質とは、廃水Wに含まれる所定の成分の濃度、又は量のことをいい、本実施形態の例では廃水Wの硝酸濃度及びアンモニア濃度である。また、水質は、例えば廃水Wの溶存酸素量であってもよい。   Based on the measurement result of the state of the waste water W acquired by the water quality measurement result acquisition unit 70, the necessary air amount acquisition unit 72 is configured to have a required air amount for making the water quality of the waste water W in the reaction tank 10 a predetermined target water quality. The total required air amount that is the total amount in all the reaction vessels 10 is acquired. Specifically, the required air amount acquisition unit 72 includes a relationship storage unit 82 and a required air amount calculation unit 84. In addition, the water quality here means the concentration or amount of a predetermined component contained in the wastewater W, and in the example of this embodiment, the concentration of nitric acid and the ammonia concentration of the wastewater W. Further, the water quality may be, for example, the amount of dissolved oxygen in the wastewater W.

関係記憶部82は、水質空気量関係を記憶する。水質空気量関係とは、反応槽10に供給される空気量と、その量の空気が供給された場合の反応槽10内の水質の変化量との関係である。関係記憶部82は、反応槽10内の水質の変化が、反応槽10に供給される空気量の変化に対して遅れる一次遅れ系として、水質空気量関係を記憶している。以下、具体的に説明する。   The relationship storage unit 82 stores the water quality air amount relationship. The water quality air amount relationship is a relationship between the amount of air supplied to the reaction vessel 10 and the amount of change in water quality in the reaction vessel 10 when that amount of air is supplied. The relationship storage unit 82 stores the water / air relationship as a primary delay system in which a change in the water quality in the reaction tank 10 is delayed with respect to a change in the amount of air supplied to the reaction tank 10. This will be specifically described below.

図3は、水質空気量関係を説明するためのグラフである。図3は、反応槽10に空気を供給した場合における、アンモニア濃度の変化量の一例を示すグラフである。図3の横軸は時間を示し、縦軸の左側は反応槽10に供給する供給空気量を示し、縦軸の右側は反応槽10内の廃水Wのアンモニア濃度を示す。図3の線分L1は、時間毎の供給空気量を示す。線分L2は、線分L1のように供給空気量が変化した場合に、水質空気量関係に従ってアンモニア濃度が変化した場合の時間毎のアンモニア濃度を示している。   FIG. 3 is a graph for explaining the water quality air quantity relationship. FIG. 3 is a graph showing an example of the amount of change in the ammonia concentration when air is supplied to the reaction vessel 10. The horizontal axis of FIG. 3 indicates time, the left side of the vertical axis indicates the amount of supply air supplied to the reaction tank 10, and the right side of the vertical axis indicates the ammonia concentration of the waste water W in the reaction tank 10. A line segment L1 in FIG. 3 indicates the amount of supplied air for each hour. A line segment L2 indicates the ammonia concentration for each time when the ammonia concentration changes according to the water quality air amount relationship when the supply air amount changes as in the line segment L1.

線分L1に示すように、図3の例では、時刻tにおいて、供給空気量をMからMに増加させている。線分L2に示すように、水質空気量関係に従った場合、アンモニア濃度は、時刻tから遅れた時刻tまでは濃度Pのままであり、時刻tからアンモニア濃度が低下し始め、時刻tまで一定の速度でアンモニア濃度が低下し、時刻tからアンモニア濃度の低下速度が低下し、時刻tにおいて濃度Pに達して、濃度Pのまま収束する。ここで、供給空気量をMからMに変化させた場合の供給空気量の変化値を、単位あたりの供給空気の変化量(例えば空気の変化量が1m)とする。そして、この場合におけるアンモニア濃度PからPへの濃度の変化量、すなわち供給空気量を単位量だけ変化させた場合の収束後の水質の変化量を、Kとする。そして、時刻tからtまでの間の時間、すなわちむだ時間をLsとする。そして、時刻tからtまでの間の時間、すなわち一次遅れ時間をTsとする。そして、アンモニア濃度の、供給空気量と時間とに関する伝達関数をyとすると、水質空気量関係は、次の式(11)に示すものとなる。 As shown in the line segment L1, in the example of FIG. 3, the supply air amount is increased from M 1 to M 2 at time t 1 . As shown in line L2, when in accordance with the water quality air volume relationship, ammonia concentration is from time t 1 to time t 2 delayed remain concentration P 1, it starts to decrease the ammonia concentration from time t 2 , the ammonia concentration lowered at a constant speed until time t 3, the rate of decrease in ammonia concentration decreases from time t 3, reaches the concentration P 2 at time t 4, converges remain concentration P 2. Here, the change value of the supply air amount when the supply air amount is changed from M 1 to M 2 is defined as the change amount of the supply air per unit (for example, the change amount of air is 1 m 3 ). Then, the variation in the concentration of the ammonia concentration P 1 in this case to P 2, ie the variation in water quality after the convergence in the case of varying only the unit amount supplied air quantity, and K. The time between the time t 1 to t 2, i.e. the dead time and Ls. The time from time t 2 to t 3, i.e. the first-order lag time is Ts. When the transfer function of the ammonia concentration related to the supply air amount and time is y, the water quality air amount relationship is as shown in the following equation (11).

y=(K・e−Ls)/(1+Ts) ・・・(11) y = (K · e −Ls ) / (1 + Ts) (11)

関係記憶部82は、予め計測されたK、Ls、Tsの値を上記式(11)に当てはめた水質空気量関係を記憶している。関係記憶部82は、例えば、時刻tからtまでの間の時間の検出結果に基づき、その検出した時間の所定の割合(ここでは63%)を、時刻tからtまでの間の時間であるTsとして記憶する。この例ではアンモニア濃度と供給空気量との関係について説明したが、それぞれK、Ls、Tsの値を予め計測していれば、水質空気量関係は、硝酸濃度と供給空気量との関係、溶存酸素量と供給空気量との関係など、各水質と供給空気量との関係に対しても適用できる。本実施形態における関係記憶部82は、アンモニア濃度と供給空気量との関係、及び硝酸濃度と供給空気量との関係のそれぞれについて、異なる水質空気量関係を記憶している。 The relationship storage unit 82 stores a water quality air amount relationship in which the values of K, Ls, and Ts measured in advance are applied to the above equation (11). For example, based on the detection result of the time from time t 2 to t 4 , the relationship storage unit 82 calculates a predetermined ratio (here 63%) of the detected time from time t 2 to t 3. Is stored as Ts which is the time of. In this example, the relationship between the ammonia concentration and the supply air amount has been described. However, if the values of K, Ls, and Ts are measured in advance, the water quality air amount relationship is the relationship between the nitric acid concentration and the supply air amount. The present invention can also be applied to the relationship between each water quality and the supply air amount such as the relationship between the oxygen amount and the supply air amount. The relationship storage unit 82 in the present embodiment stores different water quality air amount relationships for the relationship between the ammonia concentration and the supply air amount and the relationship between the nitric acid concentration and the supply air amount.

図2に示す必要空気量算出部84は、関係記憶部82から、水質空気量関係を読み出す。そして、必要空気量算出部84は、予め定められた反応槽10内の廃水Wの目標水質、ここでは目標のアンモニア濃度と目標の硝酸濃度との値である目標濃度を取得する。この目標濃度は、予め設定された一定の数値範囲である。例えば、硝酸濃度における目標濃度は、5.0mg以下の予め定められた数値範囲である。また、例えば、アンモニア濃度における目標濃度は、1.0mg/L以上5.0mg/L以下、より好適には1.0mg/L以上2.0mg/L以下である。必要空気量算出部84は、水質空気量関係と、目標濃度と、水質測定結果取得部70が取得した現在の廃水Wの硝酸濃度及びアンモニア濃度とに基づき、反応槽10の必要空気量を算出する。必要空気量算出部84は、廃水Wの硝酸濃度がその目標濃度となり、かつ、廃水Wのアンモニア濃度がその目標濃度となるように、反応槽10の必要空気量を算出する。必要空気量とは、反応槽の水質を所定の目標水質にするために、すなわち反応槽内の廃水Wのアンモニア濃度と硝酸濃度との双方を、目標濃度とするために必要な空気量であり、絶対値として算出されるものである。   The required air amount calculation unit 84 illustrated in FIG. 2 reads the water quality air amount relationship from the relationship storage unit 82. The required air amount calculation unit 84 acquires a predetermined target water quality of the waste water W in the reaction tank 10, here a target concentration that is a value of the target ammonia concentration and the target nitric acid concentration. This target density is a predetermined numerical range set in advance. For example, the target concentration in the nitric acid concentration is a predetermined numerical range of 5.0 mg or less. For example, the target concentration in the ammonia concentration is 1.0 mg / L or more and 5.0 mg / L or less, and more preferably 1.0 mg / L or more and 2.0 mg / L or less. The required air amount calculation unit 84 calculates the required air amount of the reaction tank 10 based on the water quality air amount relationship, the target concentration, and the current nitric acid concentration and ammonia concentration of the waste water W acquired by the water quality measurement result acquisition unit 70. To do. The required air amount calculation unit 84 calculates the required air amount in the reaction tank 10 so that the nitric acid concentration of the waste water W becomes the target concentration and the ammonia concentration of the waste water W becomes the target concentration. The required amount of air is the amount of air necessary for setting the water quality of the reaction tank to a predetermined target water quality, that is, for setting both the ammonia concentration and the nitric acid concentration of the waste water W in the reaction tank to the target concentration. Are calculated as absolute values.

具体的には、必要空気量算出部84は、目標濃度と水質測定結果取得部70が算出した濃度との差分である差分濃度を算出し、廃水Wのアンモニア濃度がその目標濃度側に差分濃度だけ変化し、かつ、廃水Wの硝酸濃度がその目標濃度側に差分濃度だけ変化するように、必要空気量を算出する。従って、必要空気量は、差分濃度の値に従って変化するということができる。例えば、アンモニア濃度を考慮した場合、必要空気量算出部84は、算出したアンモニア濃度が目標濃度より低い場合、差分濃度が大きくなるほど、すなわち現在のアンモニア濃度が小さくなるほど、硝化処理が進みすぎているとして、必要空気量を低くする。必要空気量算出部84は、算出したアンモニア濃度が目標濃度より高い場合、差分濃度が大きくなるほど、すなわち現在のアンモニア濃度が高くなるほど、硝化処理が十分でないとして、必要空気量を高くする。また、硝酸濃度を考慮した場合、必要空気量算出部84は、算出した硝酸濃度が目標濃度より低い場合、差分濃度が大きくなるほど、すなわち現在の硝酸濃度が小さくなるほど、硝化処理が十分でないとして、必要空気量を高くする。必要空気量算出部84は、算出した硝酸濃度が目標濃度より高い場合、差分濃度が大きくなるほど、すなわち現在の硝酸濃度が高くなるほど、脱窒処理が十分でないとして、必要空気量を低くする。   Specifically, the required air amount calculation unit 84 calculates a difference concentration that is a difference between the target concentration and the concentration calculated by the water quality measurement result acquisition unit 70, and the ammonia concentration of the wastewater W is set to the difference concentration on the target concentration side. The required air amount is calculated so that the nitric acid concentration of the wastewater W changes by the difference concentration toward the target concentration side. Therefore, it can be said that the required air amount changes according to the value of the differential concentration. For example, when the ammonia concentration is taken into account, the required air amount calculation unit 84, when the calculated ammonia concentration is lower than the target concentration, the nitrification process proceeds too much as the differential concentration increases, that is, as the current ammonia concentration decreases. As a result, the required air amount is lowered. When the calculated ammonia concentration is higher than the target concentration, the required air amount calculation unit 84 increases the required air amount, assuming that the nitrification is not sufficient as the differential concentration increases, that is, the current ammonia concentration increases. Further, when considering the nitric acid concentration, the required air amount calculation unit 84 assumes that the nitrification treatment is not sufficient as the difference concentration increases, that is, the current nitric acid concentration decreases when the calculated nitric acid concentration is lower than the target concentration. Increase the required air volume. When the calculated concentration of nitric acid is higher than the target concentration, the required air amount calculation unit 84 decreases the required air amount because the denitrification process is not sufficient as the differential concentration increases, that is, the current nitric acid concentration increases.

必要空気量算出部84は、反応槽10の全てについて、必要空気量を算出し、その合計値を総必要空気量として算出する。必要空気量は、現在の反応槽10内の廃水Wの状態、すなわち硝酸濃度及びアンモニア濃度に基づき変化するため、総必要空気量も、同様に現在の反応槽10内の廃水Wの状態に基づき変化する。   The required air amount calculation unit 84 calculates the required air amount for all the reaction tanks 10 and calculates the total value as the total required air amount. Since the required air amount changes based on the current state of the waste water W in the reaction tank 10, that is, the nitric acid concentration and the ammonia concentration, the total required air amount is similarly based on the current state of the waste water W in the reaction tank 10. Change.

なお、上述の溶存酸素量制御を行う場合、必要空気量算出部84は、溶存酸素量と供給空気量との関係を示す水質空気量関係を読み出し、水質測定結果取得部70が取得した現在の廃水Wの溶存酸素量に基づき、廃水Wが所定の目標水質(目標溶存酸素量)となるように、反応槽10の必要空気量を算出する。また、上述の流入水量制御を行う場合、必要空気量算出部84は、目標水質とするための必要空気量を、反応槽10への廃水Wの流入量に応じて算出する。必要空気量算出部84は、目標水質とするための必要空気量が、反応槽10への廃水Wの流入量に応じた関係を有するとして、その関係を記憶しておき、水質測定結果取得部70が取得した廃水Wの流入量に基づき、必要空気量を算出する。   In addition, when performing the above-mentioned dissolved oxygen amount control, the required air amount calculation unit 84 reads the water quality air amount relationship indicating the relationship between the dissolved oxygen amount and the supply air amount, and the current quality acquired by the water quality measurement result acquisition unit 70 Based on the amount of dissolved oxygen in the wastewater W, the required amount of air in the reaction tank 10 is calculated so that the wastewater W has a predetermined target water quality (target dissolved oxygen amount). Moreover, when performing the above-mentioned inflow water amount control, the required air amount calculation part 84 calculates the required air amount for setting it as target water quality according to the inflow amount of the waste water W to the reaction tank 10. FIG. The required air amount calculation unit 84 stores the relationship, assuming that the required air amount for achieving the target water quality has a relationship according to the inflow amount of the waste water W into the reaction tank 10, and obtains a water quality measurement result acquisition unit. Based on the inflow amount of the wastewater W acquired by 70, the required air amount is calculated.

図2に示す目標管内圧算出部74は、総必要空気量の値に基づき、目標管内圧を算出する。目標管内圧は、総必要空気量を供給するために必要な送風管内における空気の圧力である。圧力Pと流量Qとは、以下の式(12)のような関係式が成り立つ。   The target pipe pressure calculation unit 74 shown in FIG. 2 calculates the target pipe pressure based on the value of the total required air amount. The target pipe internal pressure is the pressure of air in the blow pipe necessary for supplying the total necessary air amount. A relational expression such as the following expression (12) is established between the pressure P and the flow rate Q.

Q=C・A・(2・P/ρ)0.5 ・・・(12) Q = C · A · (2 · P / ρ) 0.5 (12)

式(12)中のCは係数であり、Aは流路面積であり、ρは流体密度である。   In Expression (12), C is a coefficient, A is a flow path area, and ρ is a fluid density.

目標管内圧算出部74は、式(12)に基づき、流量Qを総必要空気量とした場合の目標管内圧(圧力P)を算出する。   The target pipe pressure calculation unit 74 calculates the target pipe pressure (pressure P) when the flow rate Q is the total required air amount based on the equation (12).

図4は、総必要空気量と目標管内圧との関係の一例を示すグラフである。図4の横軸は総必要空気量で、縦軸は目標管内圧である。図4に示すように、目標管内圧は、総必要空気量が減少するほど低くなり、総必要空気量が増加するほど大きくなる。このように、目標管内圧は、総必要空気量の変化、すなわち現在の反応槽10内の廃水Wの状態に応じて変化する。すなわち、目標管内圧は、例えば負荷が小さかったり、硝化処理が進み過ぎていたりするなど総必要空気量が少ない場合に、低くなる。さらに言えば、図4に示すように、目標管内圧の減少率は、総必要空気量が高い場合ほど大きくなる。   FIG. 4 is a graph showing an example of the relationship between the total required air amount and the target pipe pressure. The horizontal axis in FIG. 4 is the total required air amount, and the vertical axis is the target pipe pressure. As shown in FIG. 4, the target pipe pressure decreases as the total required air amount decreases, and increases as the total required air amount increases. Thus, the target pipe pressure changes in accordance with the change in the total required air amount, that is, the current state of the waste water W in the reaction tank 10. That is, the target pipe pressure becomes low when the total required air amount is small, for example, when the load is small or the nitrification process is too advanced. Furthermore, as shown in FIG. 4, the reduction rate of the target pipe pressure increases as the total required air amount increases.

図2に示す送風制御部76は、送風管内における圧力が目標管内圧となるように、送風ユニット20からの空気供給を制御する。具体的には、送風制御部76は、母管内圧測定部47が測定した母管32内の空気圧の値を取得しつつ、母管32内の空気圧が目標管内圧となるように、送風ユニット20からの空気供給量を制御する。   The air blow control unit 76 shown in FIG. 2 controls the air supply from the air blow unit 20 so that the pressure in the air blow pipe becomes the target pipe internal pressure. Specifically, the air blowing control unit 76 obtains the value of the air pressure in the mother pipe 32 measured by the mother pipe internal pressure measuring unit 47, and the air blowing unit so that the air pressure in the mother pipe 32 becomes the target pipe internal pressure. The air supply amount from 20 is controlled.

送風制御部76は、送風機22の運転する台数、送風機22のインレットベーンの開度、及び羽根部の回転数を制御することで送風機22から吐き出す空気量を調整して、母管32内の空気圧を目標管内圧とする。送風制御部76は、目標管内圧が現在の管内圧よりも高い場合は、インレットベーンの開度を高くするか、羽根部の回転数を高くするか、運転台数を増加させて、吐出空気量を増加させる。送風制御部76は、目標管内圧が現在の管内圧よりも低い場合は、インレットベーンの開度を低くするか、羽根部の回転数を低くするか、運転台数を減少させて、吐出空気量を減少させる。なお、送風制御部76は、送風機22の運転する台数、送風機22のインレットベーンの開度、及び羽根部の回転数の少なくともいずれか一つを制御すればよい。   The air blow control unit 76 adjusts the amount of air discharged from the air blower 22 by controlling the number of the air blowers 22 to be operated, the opening degree of the inlet vanes of the air blower 22, and the number of rotations of the blades, and the air pressure in the mother pipe 32. Is the target pipe pressure. When the target pipe internal pressure is higher than the current pipe internal pressure, the blower control unit 76 increases the opening degree of the inlet vane, increases the rotational speed of the blades, or increases the number of operating units to increase the discharge air amount. Increase. When the target pipe internal pressure is lower than the current pipe internal pressure, the air blow control unit 76 reduces the inlet vane opening, lowers the rotational speed of the blades, or reduces the number of operating units to reduce the discharge air amount. Decrease. The blower control unit 76 may control at least one of the number of the blower 22 that is operated, the opening degree of the inlet vane of the blower 22, and the rotational speed of the blade part.

導入空気制御部78は、各支管空気量測定部48が測定した各支管34に供給される空気量の値を取得する。導入空気制御部78は、必要空気量と取得した支管34での空気量とに基づき、支管34から反応槽10への空気供給量が必要空気量となるように、導入弁36の開度を調整する。導入空気制御部78は、支管34での空気量が必要空気量より大きい場合、導入弁36の開度を低くし(開口面積を小さくし)、反応槽10へ流入する空気量が大きくなり過ぎないようにする。また、導入空気制御部78は、必要空気量が変動して必要空気量が増加した場合、導入弁36の開度を高くし(開口面積を大きくし)、必要空気量が減少した場合、導入弁の開度を低くする。なお、本実施形態においては、送風制御部76が送風管30内の管内圧を必要空気量に応じて変化させ、必要空気量に追従した空気量となるように空気を供給している。従って、導入空気制御部78は、目標管内圧を一定にした場合よりも、導入弁36の開度の調整量が低くなる。言い換えれば、送風管30には、常に必要最低限に近い分だけの空気量が供給されているため、導入空気制御部78は、導入弁36の開度が低くなりすぎない範囲内で、導入弁36の開度を制御することができる。   The introduction air control unit 78 acquires the value of the amount of air supplied to each branch pipe 34 measured by each branch pipe air amount measurement unit 48. The introduction air control unit 78 controls the opening degree of the introduction valve 36 based on the necessary air amount and the acquired air amount in the branch pipe 34 so that the air supply amount from the branch pipe 34 to the reaction tank 10 becomes the necessary air amount. adjust. When the amount of air in the branch pipe 34 is larger than the required amount of air, the introduction air control unit 78 reduces the opening of the introduction valve 36 (decreases the opening area), and the amount of air flowing into the reaction tank 10 becomes too large. Do not. The introduction air control unit 78 increases the opening degree of the introduction valve 36 (increases the opening area) when the necessary air amount fluctuates and increases, and when the necessary air amount decreases, the introduction air control unit 78 introduces the air. Reduce the valve opening. In the present embodiment, the air blowing control unit 76 changes the pipe internal pressure in the air blowing pipe 30 according to the required air amount, and supplies air so that the air amount follows the required air amount. Therefore, the amount of adjustment of the opening degree of the introduction valve 36 is lower in the introduction air control unit 78 than in the case where the target pipe pressure is kept constant. In other words, since the amount of air is always supplied to the blower pipe 30 as much as necessary, the introduction air control unit 78 introduces the air within a range in which the opening degree of the introduction valve 36 does not become too low. The opening degree of the valve 36 can be controlled.

(空気供給量制御部の制御処理)
次に、空気供給量制御部40の制御処理についてフローチャートを用いて説明する。図5は、空気供給量制御部による反応槽への空気供給量の制御を説明するフローチャートである。図5に示すように、空気供給量制御部40は、最初に、硝酸計43及びアンモニア計44により、各反応槽10内の廃水Wの硝酸濃度及びアンモニア濃度を計測する(ステップS10)。
(Control processing of air supply control unit)
Next, control processing of the air supply amount control unit 40 will be described using a flowchart. FIG. 5 is a flowchart for explaining the control of the air supply amount to the reaction tank by the air supply amount control unit. As shown in FIG. 5, the air supply amount control unit 40 first measures the nitric acid concentration and the ammonia concentration of the waste water W in each reaction tank 10 using the nitric acid meter 43 and the ammonia meter 44 (step S10).

硝酸濃度及びアンモニア濃度を計測した後、空気供給量制御部40は、必要空気量算出部84により、水質空気量関係と計測した濃度と目標濃度とに基づき、各反応槽10の必要空気量を算出し(ステップS12)、各反応槽10の必要空気量を合計して、総必要空気量を算出する(ステップS14)。具体的には、必要空気量算出部84は、関係記憶部82からアンモニア濃度と供給空気量との関係、及び硝酸濃度と供給空気量との関係のそれぞれについて、水質空気量関係を読み出す。必要空気量算出部84は、アンモニア濃度と硝酸濃度とのそれぞれについての目標濃度の値を取得する。廃水Wの硝酸濃度がその目標濃度となり、かつ、廃水Wのアンモニア濃度がその目標濃度となるように、反応槽10の必要空気量を算出する。必要空気量算出部84は、全ての反応槽10について、必要空気量を算出し、その必要空気量を合計して総必要空気量を算出する。   After measuring the nitric acid concentration and the ammonia concentration, the air supply amount control unit 40 uses the required air amount calculation unit 84 to calculate the required air amount of each reaction tank 10 based on the water quality air amount relationship and the measured concentration and target concentration. The total required air amount is calculated by calculating (step S12) and summing the required air amount of each reaction tank 10 (step S14). Specifically, the required air amount calculation unit 84 reads the water quality air amount relationship for each of the relationship between the ammonia concentration and the supply air amount and the relationship between the nitric acid concentration and the supply air amount from the relationship storage unit 82. The required air amount calculation unit 84 acquires a target concentration value for each of the ammonia concentration and the nitric acid concentration. The required amount of air in the reaction tank 10 is calculated so that the nitric acid concentration of the waste water W becomes the target concentration and the ammonia concentration of the waste water W becomes the target concentration. The required air amount calculation unit 84 calculates the required air amount for all the reaction tanks 10 and calculates the total required air amount by adding the required air amounts.

必要空気量を算出した後、空気供給量制御部40は、目標管内圧算出部74により、総必要空気量から目標管内圧を算出し(ステップS16)、送風制御部76により、その目標管内圧となるように、送風機22の空気供給を制御する(ステップS18)。目標管内圧は、総必要空気量を供給するために必要な送風管内における空気の圧力である。送風制御部76は、送風機22の運転する台数、送風機22のインレットベーンの開度、及び羽根部の回転数を制御して、送風機22から吐き出す空気量を調整して、母管32内の空気圧を目標管内圧とする。具体的な送風制御部76の制御フローは後述する。   After calculating the required air amount, the air supply amount control unit 40 calculates the target pipe internal pressure from the total required air amount by the target pipe internal pressure calculation unit 74 (step S16), and the air supply control unit 76 calculates the target pipe internal pressure. The air supply of the blower 22 is controlled so as to become (step S18). The target pipe internal pressure is the pressure of air in the blow pipe necessary for supplying the total necessary air amount. The air blow control unit 76 controls the number of air blowers 22 to be operated, the opening degree of the inlet vane of the air blower 22, and the number of rotations of the blades, and adjusts the amount of air discharged from the air blower 22 to adjust the air pressure in the mother pipe 32. Is the target pipe pressure. A specific control flow of the air blowing control unit 76 will be described later.

また、必要空気量を算出した後、空気供給量制御部40は、導入空気制御部78により、各反応槽10に必要空気量分の空気が供給されるように、導入弁36の開度を調整する(ステップS20)。ステップS18及びステップS20の後、ステップS22に移り、処理を終了しない場合(ステップS22:No)、ステップS10に戻り、同様の処理を繰り返す。すなわち、空気供給量制御部40は、所定の時間毎に各反応槽10内の廃水Wの硝酸濃度及びアンモニア濃度を計測し、その計測結果に基づき必要空気量及び目標管内圧を更新して、その更新した目標管内圧になるように、送風機22から吐出される空気量を逐次制御する。また、空気供給量制御部40は、更新された必要空気量分の空気が反応槽10に供給されるように、導入弁36の開度を逐次制御する。また、ステップS22で処理を終了する場合(ステップS22;Yes)、この処理を終了する。   In addition, after calculating the required air amount, the air supply amount control unit 40 sets the opening degree of the introduction valve 36 so that the introduction air control unit 78 supplies the necessary amount of air to each reaction tank 10. Adjust (step S20). After step S18 and step S20, the process proceeds to step S22, and when the process is not terminated (step S22: No), the process returns to step S10 and the same process is repeated. That is, the air supply amount control unit 40 measures the nitric acid concentration and the ammonia concentration of the wastewater W in each reaction tank 10 every predetermined time, updates the necessary air amount and the target pipe pressure based on the measurement results, The amount of air discharged from the blower 22 is sequentially controlled so as to achieve the updated target pipe pressure. Further, the air supply amount control unit 40 sequentially controls the opening degree of the introduction valve 36 so that the renewed required amount of air is supplied to the reaction tank 10. In addition, when the process ends in step S22 (step S22; Yes), this process ends.

なお、上述の溶存酸素量制御の場合、ステップS10で反応槽10内の溶存酸素量を算出し、ステップS12で溶存酸素量が目標量(目標水質)となるように必要空気量を算出する。その他の処理は、上記説明と同様である。   In the case of the above-described dissolved oxygen amount control, the dissolved oxygen amount in the reaction vessel 10 is calculated in step S10, and the necessary air amount is calculated in step S12 so that the dissolved oxygen amount becomes the target amount (target water quality). Other processes are the same as described above.

次に、送風制御部76による送風機22の制御について説明する。図6は、送風機制御部による送風機の制御を説明するフローチャートである。図7は、送風機による送風機の制御を説明するグラフである。図6に示すように、送風制御部76は、最初に、目標管内圧算出部74から目標管内圧の値を取得する(ステップS30)。   Next, the control of the blower 22 by the blow control unit 76 will be described. FIG. 6 is a flowchart for explaining control of the blower by the blower control unit. FIG. 7 is a graph for explaining the control of the blower by the blower. As shown in FIG. 6, the blower control unit 76 first acquires the value of the target pipe pressure from the target pipe pressure calculation unit 74 (step S30).

送風制御部76は、送風機22の最大出力における管内圧が、目標管内圧以上であるかを判断する(ステップS32)。送風機22の最大出力とは、現在の送風機22の運転台数において、全ての送風機22の出力を最大とした場合の出力である。さらに言えば、送風機22のインレットベーンの開度を最大にし、かつ、羽根部の回転数を最大にした場合の出力が、最大出力となる。図7の横軸は、送風機22の出力値であり、縦軸は送風管30の管内圧である。図7に示すように、送風機22が一台稼働している場合の管内圧は、最大出力において管内圧Prになる。送風機22が二台稼働している場合の管内圧は、例えば定格出力において管内圧Prまで上昇し、さらに最大出力に上げるに従って、管内圧Prまで上昇する。送風機22が三台稼働している場合の管内圧は、例えば定格出力において管内圧Prまで上昇し、さらに最大出力に上げるに従って、管内圧Prまで上昇する。送風機22が四台稼働している場合の管内圧は、例えば定格出力において管内圧Prまで上昇し、最大出力に上げるに従ってさらに上昇する。図7の例では、目標管内圧が、管内圧Prと管内圧Prとの間の値であった場合を説明している。また、余裕管内圧は、目標管内圧より大きい値であり、図7の例では、管内圧Prと管内圧Prとの間の値であった場合を説明している。 The air blow control unit 76 determines whether the pipe internal pressure at the maximum output of the blower 22 is equal to or higher than the target pipe internal pressure (step S32). The maximum output of the blower 22 is an output when the outputs of all the blowers 22 are maximized in the current number of operating fans 22. Furthermore, the output when the opening degree of the inlet vane of the blower 22 is maximized and the rotation speed of the blade portion is maximized becomes the maximum output. The horizontal axis in FIG. 7 is the output value of the blower 22, and the vertical axis is the pipe internal pressure of the blower pipe 30. As shown in FIG. 7, the pipe pressure when one blower 22 is operating is the pipe pressure Pr 1 at the maximum output. The pipe internal pressure when two blowers 22 are operating, for example, increases to the pipe internal pressure Pr 2 at the rated output, and further increases to the pipe internal pressure Pr 3 as the maximum output is increased. The pipe internal pressure when three blowers 22 are operating increases, for example, to the pipe internal pressure Pr 4 at the rated output, and further increases to the pipe internal pressure Pr 5 as the maximum output is increased. When the four blowers 22 are operating, the pipe internal pressure increases, for example, to the pipe internal pressure Pr 6 at the rated output, and further increases as the maximum output is increased. In the example of FIG. 7, a case where the target pipe pressure is a value between the pipe pressure Pr 3 and the pipe pressure Pr 4 is described. Further, the marginal pipe internal pressure is a value larger than the target pipe internal pressure, and in the example of FIG. 7, a case where the margin pipe internal pressure is a value between the pipe internal pressure Pr 5 and the pipe internal pressure Pr 6 is described.

最大出力における管内圧が、目標管内圧以上でない(ステップS32;No)、すなわち目標管内圧より低い場合、送風制御部76は、送風機22の稼働台数を増加させる(ステップS34)。図7の例では、送風機22を二台稼働している場合の最大出力における管内圧は、目標管内圧より低くなり、この場合、送風制御部76は、稼働台数を三台にする。稼働台数を増加させたら、ステップS32に戻り、増加した稼働台数における送風機22の最大出力が、目標管内圧以上であるかを判断する。   When the pipe internal pressure at the maximum output is not equal to or higher than the target pipe internal pressure (step S32; No), that is, lower than the target pipe internal pressure, the blower control unit 76 increases the number of operating blowers 22 (step S34). In the example of FIG. 7, the pipe pressure at the maximum output when two blowers 22 are operating is lower than the target pipe pressure, and in this case, the blow control unit 76 sets the number of operating units to three. When the operating number is increased, the process returns to step S32, and it is determined whether the maximum output of the blower 22 in the increased operating number is equal to or higher than the target pipe pressure.

最大出力における管内圧が、目標管内圧以上である場合(ステップS32;Yes)、送風制御部76は、送風機22の最大出力における管内圧が、余裕管内圧以下であるかを判断する(ステップS36)。最大出力における管内圧が余裕管内圧以下である場合(ステップS36;Yes)、送風制御部76は、稼働台数をそのままにして、目標管内圧となるように、稼働している送風機22の出力を制御する(ステップS38)。図7の例では、送風機22を三台稼働している場合の最大出力における管内圧は、目標管内圧以上であり、余裕管内圧以下である。図7の例では、送風機22を三台稼働している場合、インレットベーンの開度と羽根部の回転数を制御することで出力を定格出力より小さくして、管内圧が目標管内圧となるようにする。   When the pipe internal pressure at the maximum output is equal to or higher than the target pipe internal pressure (step S32; Yes), the blower control unit 76 determines whether the pipe internal pressure at the maximum output of the blower 22 is equal to or less than the margin pipe internal pressure (step S36). ). When the pipe internal pressure at the maximum output is equal to or less than the margin pipe internal pressure (step S36; Yes), the air blowing control unit 76 outputs the output of the operating blower 22 so as to reach the target pipe internal pressure without changing the number of operating units. Control is performed (step S38). In the example of FIG. 7, the pipe internal pressure at the maximum output when three blowers 22 are operating is equal to or higher than the target pipe internal pressure and equal to or less than the marginal pipe internal pressure. In the example of FIG. 7, when three blowers 22 are operating, the output is made smaller than the rated output by controlling the opening degree of the inlet vane and the rotational speed of the blade portion, and the pipe internal pressure becomes the target pipe internal pressure. Like that.

最大出力における管内圧が余裕管内圧以下でない(ステップS36;No)、すなわち管内圧が余裕管内圧より高い場合、送風機22の稼働台数を減少させる(ステップS40)。図7の例では、送風機22を四台稼働している場合の最大出力における管内圧は、余裕管内圧より低くなり、この場合、送風制御部76は、稼働台数を三台にする。稼働台数を減少させたら、ステップS38に移り、目標管内圧となるように、稼働している送風機22の出力を制御する。ステップS38の後はステップS42に進み、処理を終了しない場合(ステップS42;No)、ステップS30に戻り、更新された目標管内圧の情報を取得し、その目標管内圧になるように、同様の処理を繰り返す。また、処理を終了する場合(ステップS42;Yes)、この処理を終了する。   If the pipe internal pressure at the maximum output is not less than or equal to the extra pipe internal pressure (step S36; No), that is, if the pipe internal pressure is higher than the extra pipe internal pressure, the number of operating fans 22 is decreased (step S40). In the example of FIG. 7, the pipe internal pressure at the maximum output when four blowers 22 are operating is lower than the surplus pipe internal pressure, and in this case, the air blow control unit 76 sets the number of operating units to three. When the number of operating units is decreased, the process proceeds to step S38, and the output of the operating blower 22 is controlled so that the target pipe pressure is reached. After step S38, the process proceeds to step S42, and when the process is not terminated (step S42; No), the process returns to step S30, and the updated target pipe pressure information is acquired and the same target pipe pressure is obtained. Repeat the process. When the process is to be ended (step S42; Yes), this process is ended.

以上説明した廃水処理システム1は、廃水Wに生物処理を行う複数の反応槽10と、複数の反応槽10に接続される管である送風管30と、送風管30を介して、複数の反応槽10に生物処理を行うための空気を供給する送風ユニット20と、反応槽10への空気供給量を制御する空気供給量制御部40と、を有する。空気供給量制御部40は、水質測定部(本実施形態では硝酸計43及びアンモニア計44)、必要空気量取得部72、目標管内圧算出部74、及び送風制御部76を有する。硝酸計43及びアンモニア計44は、反応槽10に設けられて、反応槽10内の廃水Wの状態(本実施形態では廃水Wの硝酸濃度及びアンモニア濃度)を測定する。必要空気量取得部72は、硝酸計43及びアンモニア計44の測定結果に基づき、反応槽10内の廃水Wを所定の目標水質(本実施形態では目標濃度)にするための必要空気量の、全反応槽10における総量である総必要空気量を取得する。目標管内圧算出部74は、総必要空気量を供給するために必要な送風管30内における空気の圧力である目標管内圧を算出する。送風制御部76は、送風管30内における圧力が目標管内圧となるように、送風ユニット20からの空気供給を制御する。この目標管内圧は、反応槽10内の廃水Wの状態に応じて変化する。   The wastewater treatment system 1 described above includes a plurality of reaction tanks 10 that perform biological treatment on the wastewater W, a blower pipe 30 that is a pipe connected to the plurality of reaction tanks 10, and a plurality of reactions via the blower pipes 30. It has the ventilation unit 20 which supplies the air for performing biological treatment to the tank 10, and the air supply amount control part 40 which controls the air supply amount to the reaction tank 10. FIG. The air supply amount control unit 40 includes a water quality measurement unit (in this embodiment, a nitric acid meter 43 and an ammonia meter 44), a necessary air amount acquisition unit 72, a target pipe pressure calculation unit 74, and a ventilation control unit 76. The nitric acid meter 43 and the ammonia meter 44 are provided in the reaction tank 10 and measure the state of the waste water W in the reaction tank 10 (in this embodiment, the nitric acid concentration and the ammonia concentration of the waste water W). The required air amount acquisition unit 72 is based on the measurement results of the nitric acid meter 43 and the ammonia meter 44, and the required air amount for making the waste water W in the reaction tank 10 have a predetermined target water quality (target concentration in the present embodiment) The total required air amount that is the total amount in all the reaction vessels 10 is acquired. The target pipe pressure calculation unit 74 calculates a target pipe pressure, which is the pressure of air in the blower pipe 30 necessary for supplying the total necessary air amount. The air blowing control unit 76 controls the air supply from the air blowing unit 20 so that the pressure in the air blowing pipe 30 becomes the target pipe internal pressure. This target pipe internal pressure changes according to the state of the waste water W in the reaction tank 10.

この廃水処理システム1は、現在の廃水Wの状態を測定し、廃水Wを目標水質にするために必要な総必要空気量を算出し、その必要空気量を供給するために必要な目標管内圧となるように、送風ユニット20を制御している。すなわち、廃水処理システム1は、現在の水質に基づき、送風ユニット20に対し、生物処理のために必要最小限の空気を供給するように制御している。従って、廃水処理システム1は、生物処理に不要な空気を供給することを抑制して、送風に要するエネルギー消費を抑制することができる。廃水処理システム1においては、送風ユニット20によって送風を行うことが消費電力の多くを占めているため、この送風量を抑制することで、消費電力の削減を効果的に行うことができる。   The wastewater treatment system 1 measures the current state of the wastewater W, calculates the total necessary air amount necessary for making the wastewater W the target water quality, and the target pipe pressure necessary for supplying the necessary air amount. The blower unit 20 is controlled so that That is, the wastewater treatment system 1 controls the air supply unit 20 to supply a minimum amount of air necessary for biological treatment based on the current water quality. Therefore, the wastewater treatment system 1 can suppress supply of air unnecessary for biological treatment and suppress energy consumption required for blowing. In the wastewater treatment system 1, air blowing by the blower unit 20 occupies most of the power consumption. Therefore, by reducing the amount of air blown, the power consumption can be effectively reduced.

また、目標管内圧算出部74は、総必要空気量が増加した場合に目標管内圧を高くし、総必要空気量が減少した場合に目標管内圧を低くする。この廃水処理システム1は、総必要空気量が増加した場合、例えば負荷が上昇した場合に目標管内圧を高くして確実に必要な量の空気を供給しつつ、総必要空気量が減少した場合、例えば負荷が低下した場合に目標管内圧を低くすることで、確実にエネルギー消費を抑制することが可能となる。   Further, the target pipe pressure calculation unit 74 increases the target pipe pressure when the total required air amount increases, and decreases the target pipe pressure when the total required air amount decreases. When the total required air amount increases, for example, when the load increases, the wastewater treatment system 1 increases the target pipe pressure and reliably supplies the required amount of air, while the total required air amount decreases. For example, when the load decreases, the target pipe pressure is lowered, so that energy consumption can be reliably suppressed.

また、送風管30は、送風ユニット20に接続される母管32と、母管32から分岐して複数の反応槽10にそれぞれ接続される複数の支管34と、支管34に設けられた導入弁36と、を有する。そして、空気供給量制御部40は、必要空気量と支管34への空気供給量とに基づき、反応槽10への空気供給量が必要空気量となるように、導入弁36の開度を調整する導入空気制御部78を有する。この廃水処理システム1は、送風制御部76によって生物処理に不要な空気を供給することを抑制しつつ、導入空気制御部78によって必要な量の空気を反応槽10に適切に供給することができる。   The blower pipe 30 includes a mother pipe 32 connected to the blower unit 20, a plurality of branch pipes 34 branched from the mother pipe 32 and connected to the plurality of reaction vessels 10, and an introduction valve provided in the branch pipe 34. 36. Then, the air supply amount control unit 40 adjusts the opening degree of the introduction valve 36 based on the required air amount and the air supply amount to the branch pipe 34 so that the air supply amount to the reaction tank 10 becomes the required air amount. The introduction air control unit 78 is provided. The wastewater treatment system 1 can appropriately supply a necessary amount of air to the reaction tank 10 by the introduction air control unit 78 while suppressing supply of air unnecessary for biological treatment by the air blowing control unit 76. .

送風制御部76は、送風機22の稼働台数、インレットベーンの開度、及び羽根部の回転数の少なくともいずれか一つを制御する。従って、この廃水処理システム1は、送風管30の管内圧を適切に目標管内圧とすることができる。   The air blow control unit 76 controls at least one of the number of operating blowers 22, the opening degree of the inlet vane, and the rotational speed of the blade part. Therefore, the wastewater treatment system 1 can appropriately set the pipe internal pressure of the blower pipe 30 to the target pipe internal pressure.

また、水質測定部は、反応槽10内の廃水Wの状態として、反応槽10内の廃水Wの硝酸性窒素濃度、アンモニア性窒素濃度、溶存酸素量、及び前記反応槽内への廃水の流入量の少なくともいずれか一つを測定する。従って、この廃水処理システム1は、適切に必要空気量を算出することができる。   In addition, the water quality measurement unit, as the state of the waste water W in the reaction tank 10, the nitrate nitrogen concentration, the ammonia nitrogen concentration, the dissolved oxygen amount of the waste water W in the reaction tank 10, and the inflow of waste water into the reaction tank Measure at least one of the quantities. Therefore, the wastewater treatment system 1 can appropriately calculate the required air amount.

また、水質測定部は、反応槽10内の廃水Wの水質として、廃水Wの硝酸性窒素濃度、アンモニア性窒素濃度及び溶存酸素量の少なくともいずれか一つを測定し、必要空気量取得部72は、廃水Wの水質が目標水質となるように、必要空気量を算出する。この廃水処理システム1は、水質を測定し、その水質が目標の値となるように必要空気量を算出するため、必要空気量をより正確に算出することができる。なお、廃水処理システム1は、同時硝化脱窒処理を行ってもよい。同時硝化脱窒処理は、好気処理である硝化処理及び嫌気処理である脱窒処理を同じ槽内で行うため、消費酸素量の変動が大きく、必要空気量の変動も大きくなる。必要空気量の変動が大きくなるということは、必要空気量が低くなることが多くなるため、エネルギー消費の抑制をより大きく行うことができる。   The water quality measurement unit measures at least one of the nitrate nitrogen concentration, the ammonia nitrogen concentration, and the dissolved oxygen amount of the waste water W as the water quality of the waste water W in the reaction tank 10, and the necessary air amount acquisition unit 72. Calculates the required air amount so that the water quality of the waste water W becomes the target water quality. Since the wastewater treatment system 1 measures the water quality and calculates the required air amount so that the water quality becomes a target value, the required air amount can be calculated more accurately. In addition, the waste water treatment system 1 may perform simultaneous nitrification denitrification treatment. In the simultaneous nitrification / denitrification treatment, the nitrification treatment, which is an aerobic treatment, and the denitrification treatment, which is an anaerobic treatment, are performed in the same tank. The fact that the fluctuation of the required air amount becomes large means that the required air amount often decreases, so that the energy consumption can be further suppressed.

また、必要空気量取得部72は、関係記憶部82と必要空気量算出部84とを有する。関係記憶部82は、反応槽10に供給される空気量とその量の空気が供給された場合の廃水Wの水質(ここでは硝酸濃度及びアンモニア濃度)の変化量との関係である水質空気量関係を記憶する。必要空気量算出部84は、水質空気量関係と、水質測定部による水質測定結果と目標水質(ここでは目標濃度)とに基づき、廃水Wの水質を目標水質に変化させるために必要な空気量を、必要空気量として算出する。必要空気量算出部84は、水質空気量関係に基づき必要空気量を算出するため、より正確に必要空気量を算出することができる。   The required air amount acquisition unit 72 includes a relationship storage unit 82 and a required air amount calculation unit 84. The relationship storage unit 82 is a relationship between the amount of air supplied to the reaction tank 10 and the amount of change in the quality of the waste water W (here, nitric acid concentration and ammonia concentration) when that amount of air is supplied. Remember the relationship. The required air amount calculation unit 84 is an air amount necessary for changing the water quality of the wastewater W to the target water quality based on the water quality air quantity relationship, the water quality measurement result by the water quality measurement unit, and the target water quality (here, the target concentration). Is calculated as the required air amount. Since the required air amount calculation unit 84 calculates the required air amount based on the water quality air amount relationship, the required air amount can be calculated more accurately.

また、関係記憶部82は、廃水Wの水質の変化が反応槽10内に供給される空気量の変化に対して遅れる一次遅れ系として、水質空気量関係を記憶する。必要空気量算出部84は、所定の時間の経過毎の水質測定結果に基づき、必要空気量を更新する。この廃水処理システム1は、一次遅れ系として必要空気量を算出しているため、時間毎の水質変化量を予測することができる。さらに、廃水処理システム1は、必要空気量の算出を繰り返して、算出結果を更新するため、最新の測定結果に基づき、空気供給量の制御をより正確に行うことができる。すなわち、廃水処理システム1は、フィードフォワード制御を行うことで、空気供給量の制御をより正確に行うことができる。   Further, the relationship storage unit 82 stores the water quality air quantity relationship as a first-order lag system in which the change in the quality of the waste water W is delayed with respect to the change in the amount of air supplied into the reaction tank 10. The required air amount calculation unit 84 updates the required air amount based on the water quality measurement results for each elapse of a predetermined time. Since this wastewater treatment system 1 calculates the required air amount as a first-order lag system, it can predict the amount of water quality change for each hour. Furthermore, since the wastewater treatment system 1 repeats the calculation of the required air amount and updates the calculation result, the air supply amount can be more accurately controlled based on the latest measurement result. That is, the wastewater treatment system 1 can more accurately control the air supply amount by performing feedforward control.
