Description

Apparatus for generating micro bubble

The present invention relates to a microbubble generating device, and more particularly to a microbubble generating device for supplying a mixture of fine bubbles and liquid.

Micro bubbles, fine air bubble particles, have been used in various fields. For example, a washing machine uses bubbles in a washing tank to improve washing power.

As a method of mixing gas into a liquid so far, a method using a blower, aeration to the surface, a method of pressurizing using a pressure to insert a gas, and a method of producing micronized bubble particles using electrolysis And the like have been used. These methods have been diversified into devices for the purpose of substituting dissolved oxygen by mixing nitrogen gas with liquids such as solid-liquid separation, oxygen supply, fluid transport, and reduction reaction using hydrogen gas.

The present invention relates to the deviceization of Henry's law (1803), in which "solubility of gas is proportional to pressure". In view of the above, the present invention relates to an important apparatus for micronizing a gas to stabilize a secondary action object.

Regardless of which method is used, conventional gas mixing methods have problems with pump power, reaction residence time, bubble miniaturization efficiency, and the like. Therefore, in the conventional method, the efficiency of energy when mixing gas and liquid is not high, there is a limit in saturation, the threshold of the gas component to be introduced is not determined, and the mole fraction of gas, the temperature limit of the liquid, and the mixing time management have not been understood. In addition, such a conventional mixing method is difficult to produce air or gas into micronized bubbles of 50 microns or less, and it is not possible to significantly improve the properties of bubbles.

In the conventional method, it is common to add the metallic cation and the flocculant to the contaminants in the wastewater by using the flotation separation method during the wastewater treatment, and to separate the flotation into fine bubbles. It is extremely difficult to maintain dissolved oxygen in a deep water system because it is affected by water temperature when increasing dissolved oxygen in a pond where pollution proceeds, and it takes a long time to reach a saturated oxygen concentration. On the contrary, in a dam or lake with a depth of about 20 meters, the dissolution efficiency was improved by the acid method. In such a conventional method, it was difficult to stably supply micronized bubbles of 50 microns or less.

The technical problem to be solved by the present invention is to provide a microbubble generating device for generating microbubble particles having a size of 1 to 10 ㎛ by mixing a gas such as ozone, air, high concentration oxygen gas, air and the like.

Microbubble generating device according to the present invention, the pressure pump for discharging the liquid at a predetermined pressure; A liquid inlet for installing a liquid supplied from the pressure pump is installed at a side surface, and a gas inlet for sucking gas is installed at a rear surface of the liquid pump, and the liquid flowing from the side forms a vortex to discharge the fluid mixed with the liquid. Injector; And a pressurized tank having a cylindrical space therein to maintain a reaction residence time of the fluid discharged from the injector.

The injector has an inclined portion which is formed to have a small inner diameter in a direction in which the fluid is discharged, and a plurality of protrusions formed in the shape of a truss head screw (bolt having a semi-circular screw head) is installed on the inner surface of the inclined portion, A vortex flow is created at

Four protrusions are disposed on the inner surface of the inclined portion at intervals of 90 °, and the other four protrusions are disposed to be offset by 45 ° on the four protrusions.

The pressure pump preferably discharges the liquid at a pressure of 0.4 Mpa to 0.8 Mpa.

The pressure tank is preferably to maintain a reaction residence time of 2 minutes to 5 minutes.

By using the microbubble generating device according to the present invention, the flocculation precipitation treatment can be performed without adding a large amount of drugs, and there is no need for expert knowledge on the setting of the appropriate amount of the drug input. Therefore, it has various excellent conveniences, such as a reduction of facility cost, a reduction of operating cost, and a reduction of manpower.

In addition, the microbubble generating device according to the present invention can be widely used to purify the water environment, including wastewater treatment, it is also possible to easily decompose difficult-decomposable material.

The liquid inlet 210 through which the liquid supplied from the pressure pump 110 flows is installed at the side of the injector 120. A gas inlet 220 for sucking gas is installed at the rear surface of the injector 120. The injector 120 forms a vortex 230 of the liquid flowing from the side to discharge the fluid mixed with the liquid through the outlet 240.

The injector 120 has an inclined portion 250 which is formed to have a smaller inner diameter in a direction in which the fluid is discharged. The inner surface of the inclined portion 250 is provided with a plurality of projections 260 formed in the shape of a truss head screw (bolt having a semi-circular screw head). The plurality of protrusions 260 creates a vortex flow in the liquid.

The gas drawn from the gas inlet 220 flows to the inner center of the injector 120, and the liquid introduced from the liquid inlet 210 rotates along the inner surface by the centrifugal force inside the injector 120. The rotation of the liquid in the injector 120 is about 1,200 rpm. As the liquid is directed toward the outlet 240, the vortex flow is generated by the protrusion 260 of the inclined surface 250, so that the liquid is smoothly mixed with the gas.

3 is a cross-sectional view taken from the line AA ′ of FIG. 2.

Four protrusions 260 are disposed on the inner surface of the inclined part 250 at intervals of 90 °, and four other protrusions 262 are alternately disposed on the four protrusions 260 by 45 °. In this way, the liquid flowing from the liquid inlet 210 is vortex flow by the four projections 260, and another swirl flow is generated by the other four projections 262 staggered, liquid and gas The mixing is done well.

The pressurizing tank 130 has a cylindrical space therein to maintain the reaction residence time of the fluid discharged from the injector 120.

Pressurized tank 130 is preferably to maintain a reaction residence time of 2 minutes to 5 minutes. The pressurizing tank 130 hydrodynamically squeezes the mixed liquid of gas and liquid to generate micro bubbles in which the component concentration in the gas and the component concentration in the liquid are uniform.

The design method of the pressurized tank 130 when ozone is used as a gas for generating micro bubbles is as follows.

The main design, operating factors and interrelationships are called ozone absorption efficiencies.

Contact (stay) time HRT (min) = H? So / Q _L or H? So (1-Φ) / Q _L

Ozone Injection Rate (mg / l) = Pin? Q _G / Q _L

Gas-liquid ratio (m ³ / m ³ ) = Q _G / Q _L

Absorption Efficiency (%) = {(Pin-Pout) / Pin} ㅧ 100

Dissolved ozone concentration (mg / l)

Where H is the height of the pressurized tank (m), So is the cross-sectional area of the pressurized tank (m ² ), Q _L is the throughput (m ³ / min), Q _G is the gas suction (m ³ / min) Is the gas-liquid occupancy (m ³ / m ³ ), Pin is the ozone concentration at inhalation (g / m ³ ), and Pout is the ozone concentration in the exhaust.

Water dissolution rate of ozone gas dx / dt = K _L a? A (X ^* -X)-KX. . Where X is the saturation and dissolved concentration (mg / l-liquid), K _L is the overall mass transfer coefficient (m / S), a is the gas-liquid contact area (m ³ / m ³ ) related to the pressurized tank volume, K is a magnetic decomposition rate coefficient (min-1).

Ozone dissolved state in pressurized tank Q _L (dC / dZ) = S? (K _L a (X ^* -X) -KX + E _L (d ² X / dZ ² )}, Q _G (dP / dZ) = S K _L a (X ^* -X) In addition, Z is the height (m) of the pressure tank, S is the effective cross-sectional area (m ² ), and is represented by So (1-Φ). In addition, E _L (m ² / sec) is the mixed diffusion coefficient of the liquid.

To cause the oxidation reaction with the organic substance to occur in water, dx / dt = βK _L a (X ^* -X). X is the dissolved ozone concentration (mg / l) in the liquid, X ^* is the dissolved ozone concentration (mg / l) in the liquid equilibrating to the ozone partial pressure on the gas side, and K _L a is the overall mass transfer capacity factor (min ^{Is the} integral of the global mass transfer coefficient K _L (m / min) and the gas-liquid contact area a (m ³ / m ³ ) associated with the pressure tank volume. β (≧ 1) is a correction coefficient, and β> 1 when the reaction rate is sufficiently small. If the ozone reaction in a liquid appears as a primary response to ozone concentration, the effect of the reaction rate on the ozone absorption is the diffusion coefficient D (m ² / min) in the liquid dura of the ozone, the overall mass transfer coefficient K _L and the reaction rate K ₁ (min ^-1 ) can be demonstrated using the following formula.

M = D? K ₁ / K _L ²

When using ozone gas, the oxidation potential (ORP) required for sterilization can be adjusted to meet the purpose. The apparatus according to the present invention is essential for supplying an emergency disaster drink. Moreover, it is useful for the pretreatment apparatus of high concentration wastewater, and pollution load reduction can be performed. It is also used for COD removal and discoloration in large-scale sewage reuse. Sterilization is possible even by adding ozone to seawater. Through ozone oxidation, polluted soil can be recycled to reduce the amount produced. Norovirus sterilization of cultured oysters or sterilized water used for shipping fish can be provided. It can also be used as a supplement to prolong clam shell survival.

When using a high concentration of oxygen gas, dissolved oxygen (DO) in the water is increased by about 2.9 times compared to the same conditions. It is also applicable to high BODs and high treatment volume loads in wastewater treatment. It is used as a hydroponic cultivator, oxygen adding device, or sprayer for agricultural irrigation water.

When oxygen in the air is used, the normal oxygen addition limit can be quickly realized. It is used for the purification of golf course ponds, ponds around castles and canal water, and for improving the bottom mud in closed water systems. It is possible to purify the bottom of the sea to realize high density farming such as shrimp. In the linen industry, the amount of detergent used can be reduced.

In the case where the liquid is mixed with the gas, the use of the microbubble method is excellent in the gas mixing reaction, so it is an optimal method for the purpose of oxidation or reduction reaction. Examples include high concentration ozone sterilization water supply in food processing, high concentration ozone water supply in semiconductor manufacturing facilities, special ozone sterilization device for artificial dialysis waste in hospital, scrubber deodorization device, reduction reaction device for maintenance unsaturated conversion by hydrogen gas bonding, Used to improve dissolved oxygen in high density aquaculture ponds.

When the atmosphere is confused with the microbubble device according to the present invention, a trace reduction reaction is obtained. However, when ozone gas is made smaller than 50 microns in size and injected, bubbles collapse and have strong oxidizing power, which reacts with chemicals in the wastewater to form hydropaoxy radicals (HO ₂ ?). It is electrically neutralized and negatively adsorbed to pollutants with negative electricity, so that flocculation occurs easily and fructose growth is rapid. The fine bubbles after the reaction are attached to the egg white and the like, so that the solid-liquid separation becomes easy.

The size of the micro bubbles generated from the micro bubble generator is about 30 microns.

The air saturated dissolved oxygen amount and the pure oxygen saturated dissolved oxygen amount of the second half of the micro bubble generator are as follows.

0 ℃ 5 ℃ 10 ℃ 15 ℃ 20 ℃ 25 ℃ 30 ℃ 35 ℃ 40 ℃ Saturated dissolved oxygen amount

The behavior of ozone dissolution and oxidation potential of ORP is as follows. Here, oxygen is 4 liter / min and O ₃ generation amount is 18.2 g / hour.

As shown in [Table 1], the saturated dissolved oxygen content is high as 11.37 mg / l at 1 atm of distilled water using a gas-liquid admixture, which exceeds 8.84 mg / l of physicochemical saturated dissolved oxygen. Even in ozone dissolution and oxidation potential, ORP rises to 914 mv in a short time, leading to 100% dissolution.

When waste liquid pretreatment is performed using an ozone gas gas-liquid mixing device, nucleophiles such as olefins or acetylene compounds having unsaturated bonds, aromatic monocyclic condensation compounds, compounds having carbon-nitrogen double bonds, amines, sulfides, nucleophiles, alcohols, It is highly reactive to ethers, aldehydes, compounds having carbon-carbon double bonds and the like.

The specification of the micro bubble generating device 100 according to the amount of processing is as follows. At this time, the power of the pressure pump 110 is 200v-3φ60Hz.

Processing quantity Pressurized pump specification Gas suction amount Pressurized Tank Volume 4 m ³ / hr 0.6Mpa ㅧ 2.2kw 3.3 ~ 5.3 L / min 0.14 m ³ (fresh water) to 0.3 m ³ (waste water) 6 m ³ / hr 0.5Mpa ㅧ 2.2kw 5.0 ~ 8.0 L / min 0.20 m ³ (fresh water) to 0.5 m ³ (waste water) 12 m ³ / hr 0.5Mpa ㅧ 3.7kw 10-16 L / min 0.40 m ³ (fresh water) to 1.0 m ³ (waste water) 18 m ³ / hr 0.5Mpa ㅧ 5.5kw 15-24 L / min 0.60 m ³ (fresh water) to 1.5 m ³ (waste water) 30 m ³ / hr 0.5Mpa ㅧ 7.5kw 25-40 L / min 1.00 m ³ (fresh water) to 2.5 m ³ (waste water)

The volume of the pressurizing tank 130 should be the volume to which the water supply of the pressurizing pump 110 should stay for 2 to 5 minutes (HRT / hydraulic residence time). This is because at the time of ozone gas suction, the ozone gas own oxidation potential is 2.07mV, and it reacts with hydropaoxy radical (HO ₂ ), which has a more oxidizing power of 2.80mV, to produce hydrooxy radical (OH-), thereby producing at least 2 Make contact for at least minutes. Naturally, even in the intake of ozone-free air, the air contains about 21% oxygen and about 79% nitrogen, which takes about 2 minutes of HRT / hydraulic time for OH radical generation. In this case, the oxidation potential is reduced to about 30 mV. The gas to be mixed includes air, oxygen, ozone, carbon dioxide, nitrogen, hydrogen, etc. according to the purpose, and is completely dissolved by adjusting the pressure of the pressure tank 130 to 0.2 Mpa.

The microbubble generating device according to the present invention is also effective for wastewater treatment containing trace amounts of pesticide components, materials that are difficult to decompose, mesoporous or mutated microorganisms. Ozone is used as a flocculant because it acts as a cation electrically. For example, wastewater decomposed and oxidized by oxidizing power by ozone is negatively charged and electrically neutralized to contaminants dispersed by mutual repulsion, so as to be adsorbed to each other, so that the floc grows easily due to aggregation or condensation.

It is well known that the treatment is very difficult if the oil component is emulsified in the wastewater. The oil particle diameter is 10 ^-7 ~ 10 ^-4 cm, and if it is negatively treated, it does not neutralize and cannot be removed. When using a micro bubble generator using ozone gas, the oil components can be easily separated because they mutually adsorb and grow while neutralizing negatively charged oil particles. After gas and liquid are mixed by the ozone oxidation reaction, they are discharged after treatment to adsorb and remove the filter or the remaining contaminants with activated carbon, depending on the purpose. It may remove by addition of a coagulant.

For example, chemicals from pesticide wastewater can be mineralized in a short time, eliminating 70-99% of pollutants. In particular, it is effective in the processing of substances containing trace metals which contain trace amounts of chemical components but are difficult to decompose or which contain mutant microorganisms.

As described above, when the microbubble generating device according to the present invention is used, the flotation flotation and separation treatment can be performed without adding a large amount of drugs, and there is no need for expert knowledge on the setting of the appropriate amount of the medicine input. Therefore, it has various excellent conveniences, such as a reduction of facility cost, a reduction of operating cost, and a reduction of manpower. In addition, the treated water can be mineralized or purified to a sufficient safety level, so that it can be discharged or reused in a river or the sea as it is.

Therefore, the microbubble generating device according to the present invention has a wide variety of uses and is widely used for water quality purification including wastewater treatment. Very useful for
