Description

[Detailed Description of the Invention] [Industrial Field of Application] The fluidized electrolytic water treatment device of the present invention is widely used in water treatment devices using ceramics, and is particularly applicable to various types of water treatment devices that occur due to fluidic friction of ceramics. It is used in water treatment equipment that takes advantage of its electrostatic properties.

Furthermore, the water treatment method of the present invention is in addition to the water treatment method using a water treatment device that applies the properties of fluidized electrolysis using ceramic particles, etc. of the first and second inventions. .

[Prior Art] The scale of water treatment problems has increased with the progress of civilization and industrialization, and has become a serious problem.

Therefore, various water treatment devices and water treatment methods have been invented and devised. However, all of these methods require complicated equipment or a large space, require the use of various chemical agents to remanufacture secondary pollution, or require large amounts of power and manpower.

Problems to be solved by invention C] Conventional water treatment equipment and water treatment methods are not only expensive, but also require frequent replacement of equipment, large amounts of power, equipment, chemicals, etc. It is large and takes up space, it generates secondary pollution, it requires considerable running cost and is uneconomical, it requires frequent regeneration work, it requires manpower, etc. Is that the problem? .

[Means for Solving the Problems] In view of the above problems, the fluidized electrolysis water treatment device using ceramic particles according to the present invention has the following configuration.

First, the surface temptation 1! There is an aggregate of granular ceramics having a diameter of 2 to 5 mm and consisting of two or more types having different ratios. Then, there is a container that stores this aggregate of granular ceramics. This container has an inlet and an inlet for water, and the granular ceramic aggregates therein mechanically collide and rub against each other.

On the other hand, it is made of a mixture of microcrystals of low-permittivity ceramic and high-permittivity ceramic with a diameter of 2 to 5 m.
There is an aggregate of granular ceramics of about m (mixing ratio is almost equal). This granular ceramic aggregate requires at least these two types.Next, there is a container that houses the granular ceramic aggregate and allows water to flow in and out, but from which the granular material does not flow out. The volume and shape of this container should have a sufficient volume and shape suitable for the most effective flow collision of the granules.

Next, in view of the above problems, the method for producing a fluidized electrolyzed water treatment device using ceramic according to the present invention is constructed as follows.

First, ■ a substance with a low dielectric constant and ■ a substance with a high dielectric constant,
The mixture is heated or separately formed into sintered granules with a diameter of about 2 to 5 aa+. This aggregate of granular ceramics is stored in a container through which water can easily enter and exit and from which granules do not scatter.

Finally, the water treatment method using fluidized electrolyzed water treatment using ceramic granules according to the present invention was constructed as follows in view of the above problems.

First, there is an aggregate of granular ceramic sintered bodies having a diameter of about 2 to 5 ml and 1 liter, consisting of (1) a substance with a low dielectric constant and (2) a substance with a high dielectric constant. This granular ceramic aggregate requires at least these two types. Next, a container for storing this aggregate of granular ceramics and having an inlet/outlet for water;
The particles of the aggregate in the fluidized electrolytic water treatment device using ceramics are fluidized by water or mechanical methods, and the particles themselves are in a state of intense collision and friction a'. Water is allowed to flow through this flow section. Therefore, water and electrolyte are electrolyzed when flowing there.

[Function] First, the principle by which the ceramic according to the present invention electrolyzes water will be explained. First, let's talk about the generation of electric charge.

The granules collide with each other due to fluid friction due to the flow of water. The phenomenon in which charges are generated on the surface due to this fluid frictional collision is based on the following three reasons.

First, let's talk about triboelectricity. When you rub ebonite and wool, the wool becomes positively charged and the ebonite becomes negatively charged. Something similar is a phenomenon that we often experience on a daily basis. Unlike atoms inside an object, atoms on the surface are unstable because one side is vacant, and it is said that electrons can move to other objects due to friction, etc., but the actual phenomenon is complex.

One tendency is that the amount of charge generated is approximately proportional to the difference in dielectric constant between the two, and the one with a higher dielectric constant is positively charged, and the one with a lower dielectric constant is negatively charged. The dielectric constant of ceramic also varies greatly depending on its type, ranging from single-digit dielectric constants of 6 to 10 to high dielectric constants of several thousand. Therefore, the triboelectricity generated by mixing particles with a large difference in dielectric constant increases. The granules do not need to be a single material, and may be a sintered aggregate of several ceramics or a natural material. Since the area of friction is local and extremely narrow, there is a high probability that different materials will rub against each other. Furthermore, even if two identical crystals rub against each other, they will be charged depending on the relationship between the direction of the friction and the respective crystal axes. This frictional electricity alone has a great effect on fluid electrolysis.

Next, the dielectric constant will be explained. When an insulator is inserted between two electrode plates, the ratio at which the amount of electrical energy accumulated increases compared to when there is a vacuum is called the dielectric constant. Shows the dielectric constant of some materials.

Substance name Dielectric constant feldspar 5.0 Alumina 8.5 Silica (Silh) 3, 8 Granite
8゜0 Steatite (MgO・5il)2) 6.0 Mica
7.0 Soda crow 7.5 Cordierite 5.0 Barium titanate 1.500 Potassium nioate 707 Titanium acid 100 And talk about piezoelectricity. When stress is applied to a crystal to cause distortion, positive and negative charges are generated at both ends of the crystal. It is a mutual conversion phenomenon of mechanical energy and electrical energy and is reversible. Ceramics with strong piezoelectric properties have been discovered and put into practical use. Barium titanate (BaTil)
is a typical example.

Tourmaline, which is naturally abundant in granite and occasionally occurs as pure and beautiful crystals, also exhibits this property. Exists in the asymmetric crystal family. Among these crystals, those belonging to ferroelectric crystals can change the direction of spontaneous polarization by applying an external electric field. Even crystal aggregates made by sintering can exhibit large piezoelectric properties on average by applying a high DC electric field.

Let's further explain pyroelectricity. A piezoelectric crystal that undergoes spontaneous polarization receives a very small amount of infrared rays, and this phenomenon that generates an electric charge on its surface is called the pyroelectric phenomenon. The generated voltage is generated in response to changes in the amount of radiation.

In the manner described above, mechanical energy is converted to electrical energy. The conditions for the above-mentioned charging phenomenon to occur are satisfied due to mutual friction and collision that occur during the flow of granular materials, slight heat generated by this, infrared radiation, cooling by water flow, etc. Further, in the case of ferroelectric materials such as barium titanate and tourmaline, this property is significantly strengthened by external high-voltage electric field treatment.

In this way, the electric charges generated at the grain ends of fine crystal grains become current through water and disappear.

That is, the mechanical energy of collision and friction causes the generation of physical energy of distortion, heat, and infrared radiation.

This becomes electrical energy, the charge flows as an electric current, changes to M gas chemical energy, and electrolyzes water.

On the anode electrode surface, metal deposition, organic matter adsorption, etc. on the surface may cause deactivation, but in the fluid electrolysis section, the surface is constantly deepened to a new state due to mutual friction between granules.

Therefore, describe the effect on water in the fluid electrolysis section.

The flow electrolysis section has the following effects on the raw water flowing in, giving the water good properties.

First, it has a neutralizing effect. A characteristic feature of this fluid electrolysis is its neutralizing effect. As a result, change both acidic and alkaline liquids to neutral or slightly alkaline water with a pH of 7.5 to 6.5. Neutralization of water is an important condition for effective reactions with metals such as pig iron and existing rust.

If it remains acidic, rust on iron and the like will continue to grow, and existing rust cannot be removed. This neutralization effect is an important function of fluidized electrolysis water treatment equipment.

Next, we will discuss the generation of scum and the generation of bubble sol. Electrolysis of water generates hydrogen at the negative electrode (anode) and oxygen at the positive electrode (cathode). This reaction leads to metal precipitation,
It should be carried out in parallel with reactions such as dissolution, ionization and decomposition of various substances. Under certain conditions H21)2 (hydrogen peroxide)
occurs. It is produced through electrolysis and reduction of oxygen.

The hydrogen that is generated is a highly reactive hydrogen atom, but it immediately turns into a hydrogen molecule, which is not soluble in water◇It is light and most of it quickly leaves the water. In the case of oxygen, highly active oxygen atoms become molecules and dissolve in water to become dissolved oxygen, but the solubility of oxygen in water is small (approximately 8 mg/120°C), and the remaining atoms form bubbles.

Most of these are fine bubbles (bubble sol). Similar to solid colloidal particles, this bubble sol forms an electric double layer on its surface, is negatively charged, and repels each other, creating a stable dispersion system without agglomeration or floating, and exists in an aqueous solution for a long time. Also,
This bubble sol adsorbs organic matter and various fine particles.

Furthermore, it penetrates into the crevices of scale solidified by rust, organic matter, bacteria, etc., and uses a type of peptizing action to peptize and disperse the coagulated material. The water, which contains countless bubble sol mainly composed of 02, acts as a replenishment source to continuously replenish dissolved oxygen that would otherwise be consumed during use, and helps prevent the water from becoming anaerobic.

In other words, the generation of this bubble (oxygen) sol is caused by the fact that each of the microcrystals on the surface of the ceramic granular sintered body becomes a countless number of water electrolyzers that electrolyze water. ing. The edge of this fine crystal (grain boundary)
constitutes an electrode, and the position of the electrode is determined by the direction of each crystal, which is complicated.

Oxygen and hydrogen are generated from a place corresponding to this electrode,
All of them have extremely strong oxidizing or reducing power in their atomic state before becoming molecules. Of these, hydrogen is difficult to dissolve in water and is light, so it becomes a gas and separates itself. On the other hand, oxygen dissolves only at around 8 mg/l (20"),
The generated oxygen must be saturated with water to form a fine encapsulant sol. Like solid colloidal particles, these particles form a stable dispersion system in water, and because they are negatively charged, they repel each other, preventing the bubble sol from sticking together. Therefore, it flows and moves with the water without floating or dissipating.

Therefore, the generation of highly reactive oxygen and hydrogen will be explained. When water is electrolyzed, oxygen and hydrogen are so-called "generator acid (hydrogen) atoms," and before they combine into molecules, they have extremely strong oxidizing and reducing powers. Inorganic and organic substances that come into contact with this will be immediately oxidized or reduced. It also shows strong sterilizing power against bacteria. Hydrogen peroxide, which is generated under certain conditions, is easily soluble in water and can retain its oxidizing and bactericidal powers for a long time.

Finally, we will discuss the generation of magnetic fields. When a minute local current flows in the fluid electrolysis section, not only electrolysis occurs, but also countless magnetic fields in a minute range are naturally generated at the interface with the water in contact with the surface of the granules.

The effect of magnetic fields on water has been known for a long time, and it has been widely put into practical use in the Soviet Union and Europe, and large-scale facilities such as power plants are also in operation.

The reported practical effects are widespread. It is especially effective when used in conjunction with other water treatment methods, and the effects are not immediate but appear over a long period of time.

The theoretical mechanism behind this is still unclear and remains a hypothesis, but it has been empirically confirmed.

Next, water treated by the fluidized electrolysis water treatment device will be described. As is clear from what has been said so far, fluid electrolysis
The treated water has the following properties:

First, neutral (or slightly alkaline) P) 16.5~
It has been adjusted to 7.5.

Second, it contains dispersed fine bubble sol mainly made of oxygen gas. This bubble sol creates a stable dispersion system in water that can be maintained for a long time.

This helps replenish the lack of dissolved oxygen in the water.

Thirdly, this bubble sol has adsorption power and absorbs fine particles in water, disperses them, and flows out. In addition, it easily penetrates into the interior and gaps of deposits and deposits such as scale, supplies oxygen, causes deflocculation, and disperses and flows away. Fourthly, electrolysis of water continuously generates highly active oxygen and hydrogen (atoms) on the surface of the granules, causing strong oxidation and reduction reactions.

Furthermore, it reacts with iron and the like to generate hydrogen peroxide, creating water that is easily soluble in water and has strong oxidizing or sterilizing power.

Finally, a microscopic magnetic field is continuously created in the water, giving it a magnetic field effect. This magnetic field effect is due to the memory effect of water, which remains for 2 to 3 days even after the magnetic field is removed.

[Example] Below, a fluidized electrolytic water treatment device using ceramic, a manufacturing method, and a water treatment method according to the present invention will be described.

First, the fluid electrolysis water treatment device using ceramic, which is the first invention, will be described in detail using one embodiment thereof with reference to the accompanying drawings.

FIG. 1 is a side cross-sectional view showing an embodiment of a fluidized electrolysis water treatment device using ceramic according to the present invention.

This water treatment equipment consists of the following steps: Gensuishin fluid electrolysis section → treated water. This fluid electrolysis section has an extremely simple structure in which special ceramic particles are housed in a ceramic case.

The fluid electrolysis section will now be explained in detail.

First, there is the granular material 1. The granular material 1 is made by pulverizing, granulating, and sintering mainly ceramic as a raw material, and has a standard shape of a spherical material. And it has the following properties.

(+) It has a specific gravity and size suitable for creating a fluid part in water. The specific gravity is in the range of 2.5 to 4.0, and the size is spherical with a diameter of about 2 to 5 mm.

(2> The crystal structure is hard and dense, and the crystals are finely divided. It is not easily cracked or abraded.

(3) It has water resistance, acid resistance, and alkali resistance.

(4) These granules are made to have the property of generating electric charges locally on the surface of the granules when they rub or collide with each other.

(5) High insulation.

That's all.

Since these particles, especially those having a large electrolytic resolution, are important, they will be described in more detail.

Since triboelectricity occurs in different amounts of substances, the following cases may occur. ■First, it is a mixture of two or more types of granules made of different substances. (2) The next case is a case where it is made of a mixed fired granular material of two or more kinds of substances. Finally, ■ above ■
This is the case when the silk is mixed with the silk combination of ■.

This must be a combination of materials with different dielectric constants. For example, other than ferroelectric materials, a combination of alumina and silica is preferable. Cordierite, feldspar, etc. also belong to the low dielectric constant category, and other than alumina, granite etc. belong to the high dielectric constant category. All have dielectric constants of 10 or less.

Among the enhanced electric constant materials, barium titanate treated with external high voltage has an abnormally high dielectric constant of 1.000 to 1.500, and when 5rTi03 and Ba5nOs are added to this, the dielectric constant increases to 3,000 to 1.500. You could make one for 15,000.

Titanium oxide is 20 to 100.

In addition to the dielectric constant, hardness, friction coefficient, etc. are also considered to be factors. Considering the generation of piezoelectricity and pyroelectricity in addition to frictional electricity, one type has to have a high performance. Lead compounds, such as lead titanate, are unsuitable for use in lead-containing drinking water. It is effective to use a material for the container wall that comes into frictional contact with the granules and has a dielectric constant different from that of the granules.

Since strong mechanical strength is also required, Coats-2 (Mgo, 1i~16$:41203.33~41$:
Composite porcelain made by adding feldspar, zirconia, alumina, mullite, zircon, aluminum titanate, etc. to 5i02.43~56x) has low water absorption, high mechanical strength and impact resistance, and a hardness of (Mohs) 7. , the dielectric constant is also 4
It can be said that it has good physical properties as low as ~5.

Other than this, there is steatite (mainly made from talcum). It has a dielectric constant of 6.2 to 6.4, is dense, homogeneous, chemically stable, and has excellent acid resistance. It is mechanically strong and can be manufactured with high dimensional accuracy.

It is necessary to consider the materials used for these depending on the purpose.

If you put this into a table, it will look like this:

(Example when using strong effects) Factors to consider are (1) Hardness, modulus of elasticity, coefficient of friction (2) Water resistance, acid resistance, alkali resistance (3) Denseness, no cracks, no clumping (4) Electrical insulation and low ionic conductivity (5) Small crystal grains (6) Grain boundary properties It is.

Therefore, the ion exchange effect will be described below.

When treating drinking water, it may be necessary to soften hard water. In this case, water softening treatment may be performed after fluidized electrolytic treatment, but ion exchange can be performed at the same time by mixing potassium titanate or the like into the granules. However, it is necessary to play it from time to time.

However, maintenance of granules and containers becomes a problem.

The deactivation and functional deterioration of particulate matter and containers are mainly due to the adsorption of metals (electrodeposition) and organic matter (dirt, etc.) during electrolysis. This is because the surface is renewed by sliding friction during flow, but in the case of water in which a large amount of dissolved salts is present, the surface is rapidly covered with a calcium carbonate film, which may reduce the electrolytic function. In this case, it is sufficient to remove only the fluid electrolytic section and clean it for a short time using a commercially available cleaning agent (acidic). For this reason, bypass piping and a switching cock will be installed to ensure that the water flow does not stop.

In addition, the upper and lower lids are also made of ceramic (the same material as the container may be used) to ensure a constant flow of granules and to prevent granules from escaping. Further, after long-term use, repolarization treatment by external electric field treatment may be performed depending on the case.

The above is about the particulate matter. Next, let's talk about the fluid electrolyzer.

First, there is the material. In the area surrounding the space where the particulate matter 1 undergoes repeated flow collisions, the wall portion is also a place where frictional collisions occur with the particulate matter 1 and where an electrolytic reaction takes place. The same consideration as for the granular material 1 is required for this material, etc. If it is unavoidable due to structural strength, metal may be used.

In addition to water flow alone, if mechanical stirring or the like is performed, similar consideration should be given to the materials of parts other than the walls that come into contact with the granules as much as possible.

Next is the shape. The shape of the container varies depending on the method of use. Here I will show what I think are the most representative ones. A metal container is often provided to protect this container. Also, install water pressure gauges, valve flow meters, etc. as necessary.

Below, several types of fluidized electrolysis water treatment equipment will be described.

Although the basics of a fluidized electrolysis water treatment device have already been described, various forms and methods are actually used depending on the use, purpose, location, etc. of each case. Here are some examples.

First is the vertically rising fluidized bed method. This is as shown in FIG. In Fig. 1, 1 is a granular material;
These create fluid friction with each other. Reference numeral 2 denotes a partition plate with flowability, through which water passes and the above-mentioned fluid does not leak to the outside. 3 is a partition plate. 4 is a ceramic cylinder, and the above-mentioned fluid 1 also flows and rubs against this cylinder. 5 is a water outlet. 6 is a water inlet, from which raw water 7 enters.

8 is treated water. Exit through the water outlet above.

Flow energy is only the water flow energy, and a portion of the pressure loss is related to this energy. This can also be done in series or in parallel.

The next method is to apply mechanical vibrations along with the container. This can be done by magnets, motors or other mechanical means.
Vibrates violently to the granules and water, causing friction and collisions between the granules and the container. You can also use wind, waves, and other natural forces.

For this, (i)! ! It can also be installed in the sea along with buoys to supply oxygen and sterilize the water in the breeding grounds.

Further, (0) it is convenient when installed in a rooftop water tank of a building or other various water storage tanks.

Specifically, as shown in FIG. 2, it is sufficient to vibrate the electrolytic section 9 using the vibrating section 9.

There is also a method using the gradient flow method underwater.

This is to vibrate in the direction of inclination as shown in FIG. That is, as shown in FIG. 3, the granules flow due to changes in the inclination of the container. The container has many voids, allowing water to freely flow in and out. In addition, FIG. 3 is a front view of an example using the inclined flow method, and FIG. 3 a shows a tonne whose central position is inclined and which is tilted half a rotation around the center position.
The center position of Figure 3 is horizontal, and Figure 3C
is suspended from buoy B and tilts upward symmetrically.

Furthermore, there is also a forced stirring method. This is to rotate the fluid electrolysis section 10 at a low speed as shown in FIG. In addition,
FIG. 4 is a side sectional view of an embodiment of the forced stirring method, in which water flows vertically in FIG. 4a and diagonally in FIG.

There is also a circulation method. This circulates water as shown in Figure 5, and can be used in pools, ponds, building aquariums (large), fish farms, etc., cleaning water storage tanks, car wash water, etc.
Good for boiler water, concrete mixing water, etc.

In addition, FIG. 5 is a piping diagram of one embodiment of the circulation system,
Figure 5 a shows the total circulation system, and Figure 5
Part of it is a circulation control type.

There is also a small shaker type. This is done by putting the ceramic case 4 containing the granules 1 and water 11 into the shaker 12 as shown in Fig. 6, and shaking it by hand for a little over a few seconds. do. There are slits around the shaker 12 that allow water to enter and exit. It can also be made into a spray.

Alternatively, it can also be connected to the suction port of a pump. This can be used to prevent rust on pump materials and to treat water flow.

As described above, firstly, this fluidized electrolysis water treatment device does not require daily maintenance or operation (unmanned operation).

Second, there is no need to add chemicals or special energy.

Thirdly, there is no need for large auxiliary equipment or complicated construction other than the fluid electrolysis section, the national body, piping, etc.

Fourth, it does not take up much space to install.

Fifth, the granules and equipment have a very long lifespan and require little replacement with regular water.

Sixthly, metals and salts adhering to particulate matter are removed by flow and friction, except in the case of water with a particularly high salt concentration, but they can be easily restored to their original state by simply cleaning the fluid electrolysis section with chemicals. Commercially available chemical cleaning agents (acidic) are sufficient. Since this takes only a very short time, there is no need to stop the water supply using bypass piping.

Finally, it is desirable to perform periodic water quality tests once or twice a year to permanently guarantee the fluidized electrolysis water treatment device. Inspection items include various items such as PH1 conductivity, residual chlorine, dissolved oxygen, BOD, Do, COD, and turbidity as necessary.

In addition, the fields of application of this fluidized electrolysis water treatment device are extremely wide.

The object of this fluidized electrolysis water treatment device is not limited to water. "By converting the kinetic energy of the fluid and the mechanical energy of the special ceramic particles into electrochemical energy, we can utilize this effect in a variety of ways." Thus, the fluid may be air or other gas, or many organic solvents. However, unlike in the case of water, various effects are expected, such as ionization of fluid substances or contained substances, discharge action in minute local areas, oxidation, and reduction action.

Fluid electrolytic treatment equipment is useful for deodorizing, ionizing, removing dust, and cleaning the air, and will also be used as production and reaction equipment, and water rich in oxygen bubble sol is used as "oxygen water" for medical and other purposes. It is likely that applications will be developed.

A theme of particular interest is the practical application of water electrolysis for the purpose of producing hydrogen. Hydrogen itself is attracting attention as a future clean energy medium, but the problems are the cost of electrolysis and the treatment of the electrolyte.

There is no cheaper and cleaner way to produce hydrogen than by producing hydrogen while treating water, sewage, and various waste liquids using the fluidized electrolysis water treatment method. The problem lies in the efficiency and development of rigorous hydrogen separation methods.

Future basic, industrial and applied research and development will further solidify these expectations.

Therefore, in the present invention, it is important to use treated water with an active oxygen concentration depending on the intended use. In other words, the various effects of water treated by a fluid electrolysis system are mainly due to the strength of the reaction of activated oxygen in the water, but the effects vary depending on the purpose of the water, such as drinking water, etc. In the case of industrial wastewater treatment, sterilization, mold removal, cleaning, etc., consideration should be given to the effectiveness and not to use equipment such as melt walls and piping. This point requires the same consideration as when using ozone or hydrogen peroxide solution.

When using water as a water supply source for buildings, condominiums, etc., pipe scale removal, cooling work, daily use water, and rust prevention must not be done in the same work.

One-time control of activated oxygen is easily possible by adjusting the following conditions.

(1) Selection of the composition and type of fluidized granulation to be used and the amount to be used.

(2) Time of fusion with water.

(3) Temperature, flow rate (4) It is also important to devise a system such as a one-bath method, a circulation method, or a method of mixing raw water and treated water.

[Effects of the Invention] As described above, the fluidized electrolysis water treatment device and water treatment method using granular ceramic according to the present invention can prevent the "progression of rust" that occurs when using so-called commercial water such as drinking water.
In addition to solving many problems such as "the generation of red water" and "scaling problems in boilers" and "water heaters", we also solve various problems such as cleaning water, baths, recycling towers, sand, diatom filters, etc. It is useful for reducing and regenerating clogging, and is also useful for suppressing bacterial growth when purifying pools, ponds, and large water tanks.

More broadly, the agricultural and fisheries industry, food industry water, concrete, cement water, dyeing, IT, TT industry, paper industry,
This will bring great benefits to fields that are greatly affected by the properties of water, including the woodworking industry. Water problems in energy industries such as nuclear power, thermal power, geothermal power, solar heat, etc. are serious problems such as corrosion of cooling water and heat exchange water equipment, and the present invention will help solve this problem. It is something.

Fluid electrolytic water treatment equipment is simple enough to handle applications ranging from the amount of water used in ordinary homes to these ultra-large scale equipment, and its outstanding economical superiority means that it can utilize nearly inexhaustible resources. This will bring major reforms to civilized society in various fields, including water use.
