Description

Activated Carbon Storage Device in Purification Plant

The present invention relates to an activated carbon storage device of a water purification plant. More particularly, the present invention relates to activated carbon storage in a quantitative manner so that activated carbon can be effectively injected in consideration of the characteristics of a water purification plant.

In general, activated carbon is an aggregate of amorphous carbon, which is made of raw materials of coconut shell and coal, and has fine micropores, and is an adsorbent having a large internal surface area by forming fine pores of a molecular size in the activation process.

Therefore, the activated carbon has a property that the functional group of carbon atoms present on the inner surface physically adsorbs the surrounding liquid or gas to the fine pores by the attraction force, so that the activated carbon is effectively used for the purification of wastewater. Activated charcoal is added to remove odors contained in purified water and to purify water quality.

In addition, the activated carbon is generally introduced into the activated carbon bin (Bin) manually and is introduced into the water purification plant through the Heesung facility.

However, as described above, the conventional activated carbon input equipment is manually put into activated carbon bins and then introduced into a water purification plant through a dilution facility, resulting in a lot of scattering dust, contaminating the surrounding environment and damaging the health of the worker.

In addition, a large number of working manpower is required to introduce activated carbon into the water purification plant, which lowers the efficiency of the water purification facility and increases the purification cost due to labor costs.

An object of the present invention is to configure the storage and input facilities for storing and injecting activated carbon into a fully automated system to simplify operation, reduce manpower and increase the efficiency and efficiency of water purification facilities, due to scattering merge It is to provide a storage device for activated carbon that can prevent the pollution of the surrounding environment.

It is achieved by consisting of drying means 40 mounted on the silo 10 to dry the stored activated carbon by introducing dry air into the storage chamber of the silo 10.

That is, the activated carbon is transported by air from the tank lorry or the transport container 1 of the activated carbon company to the storage compartment in the silo 10 by air transfer means 20, thereby reducing the labor and management costs incurred when manually transported. It can be.

In addition, as described above, the dust generated when the activated carbon is transferred to the storage compartment in the silo 10 by the air transfer means 20 is collected by the dust collecting means 30 and is automatically introduced into the silo 10 again. Dust or flying dust can be prevented from leaking outside and polluting the surrounding environment.

In addition, when the dried carbon is stored in the activated carbon stored in the silo 10 and stored for a long time, condensed water may be prevented from being generated by the moisture contained in the activated carbon.

When described in detail with reference to the accompanying drawings a preferred embodiment of the present invention.

Figure 1 is a schematic diagram showing the configuration of the present invention, schematically showing that activated carbon is supplied to the water purification plant 2 in the storage device of the activated carbon of the present invention.

Hereinafter, as shown in FIG. 1, the silo 10 according to the present invention includes a storage compartment capable of storing activated carbon therein, and has a hopper shape so as to easily discharge the activated carbon stored below, and a tank lorry 1a. B is connected to an air transport means 20 for injecting activated carbon transported by a transport container 1 such as a transport container of an activated carbon company into a storage compartment using air.

The air transfer means 20 is constituted by a pneumatic system 21 which can suck and convey air.

In addition, a bag filter 31 is mounted to the upper part of the silo 10 as a dust collecting means 30, and the bag filter 31 is generated when the activated carbon is transported in association with the storage chamber of the silo 10. It is designed to prevent dust from being diffused into the atmosphere by removing the dust, and is operated by a self-cleaning system to collect dust and clean it automatically, and to activate activated carbon again into the silo 10.

In addition, a load cell is attached to the lower part of the silo 10 to check the storage amount of activated carbon and the usual storage amount injected into the internal storage chamber of the silo 10 in the operation situation room, and the load cell is tensioned or compressed by the load of the activated carbon. In addition, the deformation amount is detected as an electrical signal, and the weight is changed by converting it into a digital signal using a computer device.

In addition, the silo 10 is equipped with a drying means 40, and the drying means 40 uses a compressor 41 to introduce dry air into the storage compartment to dry the stored activated carbon and to maintain the humidity by long-term storage. Prevents deterioration of properties.

That is, the activated carbon is automatically transferred to the air by the pneumatic system into the storage compartment of the silo 10, and the carbon can be stored for a long time while maintaining the characteristics of the activated carbon.

Meanwhile, a bin activator 50 is mounted at the bottom of the silo 10, and a weight feeder 60 is provided at the bottom of the bin activator 50 to supply activated carbon quantitatively. It is installed, the weight feeder 60 is connected to the mixing means 70 to mix the fixed amount of activated carbon with a predetermined amount of water to be supplied to the water purification plant (2).
