(Prior art) A plurality of layers of furnace overlayers and supporting gravel layers are formed inside the filtration tank from the bottom toward the top, and the raw water supplied from the bottom is directed upwards into this filtration tank. Upflow filtration devices that capture suspended matter while passing water are widely used for tertiary treatment of sewage due to its high suspended matter trapping ability. However, as suspended matter accumulates at the boundary between the sand layer and the gravel layer, etc., the filter layer is blocked and pressure loss increases.Therefore, it is necessary to perform cleaning when the pressure loss reaches a certain value. There is.

Conventionally, the main method for cleaning the main filtration layer is to blow air from the bottom to separate the suspended matter from the filter medium, and then supply the cleaning water from the bottom to overflow the suspended matter. Since the force depends on the bubble diameter, it rapidly increases near the water surface, and there is a drawback that a sufficient cleaning effect cannot be obtained for the boundary surface between the sand layer and the upper gravel layer where the most suspended matter is captured. there were. There
As shown in Japanese Patent Laid-Open No. 52-37234, first, the water level is lowered and then air is blown while supplying water in an upward flow at a low water amount, and then washing is performed while gradually increasing the water level, and then at a high water amount. A method has been developed in which water is supplied countercurrently for rinsing. However, this method has the advantage that the stirring force of the bubbles can be sufficiently utilized throughout the filtration layer by moving the water level, but on the other hand, it requires a separate low-water-volume washing pump to raise the water level at a rate suitable for washing. Due to the difference in sedimentation speed of sand particles, the sand layer is repeatedly layered so that the upper part is finer and the lower part is coarsely stratified. There was a defect such as.

Next, the present invention will be described in more detail with reference to the drawings.
In FIG. 1, (1) is a filter tank of an upflow type filtering device, and a supporting gravel layer (2) and an upper gravel layer are provided inside thereof.
A filtration layer (5) consisting of (3) and a sand layer (4) is provided, and the raw water supplied from the pressure regulation layer (19) is normally filtered through the pipes (6) and (7) into the filtration tank (1). The structure is such that it is fed from the bottom of the tank, filtered while passing upward through the filter layer (5), and taken out from the treated water channel (8). However, the water resistance in the pressure regulating tank (19) gradually rises from the initial water level (9) because the water resistance increases as the suspended solids in the raw water are captured by the filtration layer (5) and accumulated inside. Will reach the maximum water level (10). In this way, when the maximum water level (10) is reached, cleaning is started, but in order to perform cleaning, first the drain gate (11) and the drain valve (12).
Open and open, lower the water level in the filtration tank (1) to a detected water level (14) 30 to 50 cm higher than the upper surface (13) of the sand layer (4), and then use compressed air from the air blow pipe (15) at the bottom of the tank. Start blowing. Since the drain valve (12) is still open during this time, the water level gradually decreases, and the bubbles generated in the water due to continuous air blowing gradually increase in diameter near the gradually decreasing water surface. It bursts and the filter material near the water surface is vigorously stirred to remove the suspended matter adhering to the surface. Such peeling action starts from the upper part of the filtration layer (5) and gradually moves downward, and the separated suspended matter is discharged from the drain valve (12) through the pipe (7). In the present invention, since air blowing is performed while continuously lowering the water level over the entire area from the top to the bottom of the filtration layer (5) in this way, the separated suspended matter has a coarser particle size and moves downward. However, unlike the conventional method, once suspended turbidity is not captured again in the upper layer portion having a small particle size. In addition, it is desirable to perform air blowing for a long time in the part of the reactor layer where the amount of suspended solids is large and the pollution is advanced, but the rate of water level decrease can be freely controlled by controlling the opening of the drain valve (12). In some cases, it is easy to temporarily stop the water level at a predetermined position using a timer or the like. Moreover, in the present invention, since the water can be drained by natural water pressure, the water level in the lower portion of the filtration layer (5), which has the largest amount of suspended solids and which requires stronger stirring, can be gradually lowered. In this way the water level is
When it reaches the bottom of (5), the air blow is stopped, but depending on the degree of adherence of suspended solids, the drain valve (12) is closed and washing water is supplied from the pipe (16), and the water level is raised again to the detected water level. After that, the same cleaning process can be repeated as many times as necessary, and the air blow can be continued even while the water level is rising. After the cleaning according to the method of the present invention is completed in this way, the normal upflow cleaning with cleaning water is performed. At this time, the cleaning drainage is discharged from the drainage channel (17). Note that (18) is a sand layer
A grid provided slightly below the upper surface (13) of (4) for preventing the filter material from flowing out. Next, a preferred embodiment of the present invention will be described.

(Example) 12.5 m 3 / m 2 · Hr was added to an upward flow type filtration tank with a filtration layer thickness of 175 cm.
The total loss head of the filtration device that performs filtration while supplying the raw water with SS concentration of 12 mg / at the filtration speed was measured by the pressure control tank, and when the total loss head reached 3.0 m, washing was started. First, fully open the drainage gate and drain valve, and when the water level reaches the detected water level of 50 cm on the sand surface, start continuous air blowing with 60 m 3 / m 2 · Hr compressed air, and then lower the water level for 3 minutes. While continuing the air blow, the drain valve was closed to 90%. After that, air blowing was performed while further slowly lowering the water level for another 5 minutes, and then the drain valve was fully closed to stop the air blowing. Next, when washing water was supplied from the bottom of the tank with a water amount of 48 m 3 / m 2 · Hr, drainage from the drainage channel started after 4 minutes had elapsed. Then, drainage was continued for 7 minutes, and the washing process was completed in a total of 20 minutes. The amount of washing water required for this washing process is 8 m 3

On the other hand, the water level is stopped at 10 cm above the sand surface of the same upflow type filtration tank, air blowing with compressed air of 60 m 3 / m 2 · Hr is performed for 10 minutes, and then 48 m 3 / m 2 · 15 over 15 minutes. In the case of the conventional method in which the Hr wash water is used for up-flow washing, the total washing time is 27 minutes and the required water amount is 12 m 3 / m 2.
Initial total loss head starts from 45 cm after repeated washing.
It has risen to 70 cm.

(Effects of the invention) As is apparent from the above description, the present invention continuously blows air while continuously lowering the water level caused by natural water pressure over the entire area of the filtration layer, and the suspended matter thus peeled off. Since the turbidity is discharged from below, once suspended turbidity is not re-captured by the filter material of the upper layer with a fine particle size, and the rate of decrease of the water level can be freely controlled by the drain valve. Unlike the above, it is not necessary to provide two large and small pumps for cleaning. Therefore, according to the present invention, complete cleaning can be performed in a short time and with a small amount of water, and as a method for cleaning a filtration layer that solves the conventional problems such as easy cleaning, it contributes to industrial development. It is extremely large.
