本発明の一態様に係る膜分離活性汚泥処理システム及び別の態様に係る膜分離活性汚泥処理システムは、調整槽を使用することなく排水の流量変動に対応できる。
本発明の一態様に係る膜分離活性汚泥処理方法は、排水を生物処理する工程と、この生物処理工程後に膜分離する工程とを備える膜分離活性汚泥処理方法であって、上記膜分離工程で、一方向に引き揃えられる複数本の中空糸膜及びこれらの複数本の中空糸膜の両端を固定する一対の保持部材を有する複数の濾過モジュールを用い、上記生物処理工程への排水の流入量の変動に応じて上記濾過モジュールの運転数を変動させる。
以下、本発明に係る膜分離活性汚泥処理システムの実施形態について図面を参照しつつ詳説する。
図1の膜分離活性汚泥処理システムは、排水を生物処理する生物処理槽1と、この生物処理槽1での処理水を膜分離する膜分離装置2とを備える。
生物処理槽1は、流入する新たな排水と処理中の排水とが混合された被処理水を貯留する水槽である。この生物処理槽1には、発生源から排水が直接流入する。従って、当該膜分離活性汚泥処理システムは、生物処理槽1に流入する排水の流量を調整する槽を有しないため、設備コストを低減できる。
担体4の構造としては、複数の活性汚泥を付着維持できる構造であれば特に限定されず、例えば複数の孔を有する多孔質膜等とすることができる。また、この担体4の材質としては特に限定されないが、強度、耐薬品性、空孔形成容易性等の観点からポリテトラフルオロエチレン(PTFE)を用いることが好ましい。なお、凝集剤を用いて担体4に活性汚泥を付着させてもよい。
散気装置5は、生物処理槽1内の被処理水中の活性汚泥、特に担体4に担持されている活性汚泥に酸素を含む空気を供給する。つまり、散気装置5は、酸素の供給によって活性汚泥による有機物の低減を促進する。
膜分離装置2は、被処理水を濾過できる複数の濾過モジュール8と、この複数の濾過モジュール8に接続され、濾過モジュール8が濾過した処理済水を吸引して排出(濾過モジュール8を運転)する複数の排出機構9と、濾過モジュール8の下方から気泡を供給する1又は複数の洗浄モジュール10と、生物処理槽1への排水の流入量の変動に応じて濾過モジュール8の運転数(つまり排出機構9の運転数)を変動させる制御装置11とを備える。
濾過モジュール8は、図2に示すように、上下に引き揃えられる複数本の中空糸膜12と、これらの複数本の中空糸膜12の上端を固定する上側保持部材13と、この上側保持部材13と対をなし、上記複数本の中空糸膜12の下端を固定する下側保持部材14とをそれぞれ有する。
中空糸膜12は、水を透過させる一方、被処理水に含まれる不純物の透過を阻止する多孔性の膜を管状に成形したものである。
上側保持部材13は、保持する複数本の中空糸膜12の内腔と連通する内部空間を形成し、この内部空間から中空糸膜12によって濾過された処理済水を排出する排水ノズル13aを有する。
下側保持部材14は、中空糸膜12の下端を保持する。下側保持部材14は、上記上側保持部材13と同様に内部空間を形成してもよく、中空糸膜12の開口を閉塞するような方法で中空糸膜12の下端を保持してもよい。
排出機構9は、1又は複数の濾過モジュール8から処理済水を吸引する吸引系を構成する。換言すると、膜分離装置2の複数の濾過モジュール8は、図2に示すような複数の濾過ブロックに区分され、各濾過ブロック毎に処理済水を吸引する排出機構9が設けられる。従って、膜分離装置2では、排出機構9毎、つまり吸引系が共通する複数の濾過モジュール8から構成される濾過ブロック毎に運転又は停止することができる。
洗浄モジュール10は、図1及び図2に示すように、複数の濾過モジュール8の下方に配設される。この洗浄モジュール10は、濾過ブロック毎に配設されることが好ましい。
空気供給器17としては、例えばブロワー、コンプレッサー等を用いることができる。
空気ヘッダー18は、例えばパイプ等で構成することができる。より具体的には、空気ヘッダー18は、図2に示すように、濾過モジュール8に一対一に対応し、平面視で中空糸膜12の存在領域Aに沿って延在する1又は複数のパイプ18aを有することが好ましい。気泡吐出口19は、各パイプ18aに一列に並んで形成するとよい。
気泡吐出口19は、中空糸膜12の存在領域Aの長手方向に列をなして形成されることが好ましい。気泡吐出口19が存在領域Aの長手方向に列設されることによって、気泡吐出口19から放出される気泡が、カーテン状の中空糸膜12の束に沿って上昇し、中空糸膜12を擦過することによって、中空糸膜12の外周面に付着している濁質等を効率よく除去することができる。
制御装置11は、生物処理槽1への排水の流入量を検出するセンサー20からの入力信号に基づいて、濾過モジュール8及び洗浄モジュール10の運転数、つまり吸引ポンプ16及び空気供給器17の運転台数を調節する。
続いて、当該膜分離活性汚泥処理システムを用いて行われる本発明の一実施形態に係る膜分離活性汚泥処理方法について説明する。
生物処理工程では、上記生物処理槽1の主に生物処理部6において排水に由来する被処理水中の有機物を活性汚泥に酸化分解又は吸収分離させる。
膜分離工程では、膜分離装置2の濾過モジュール8及び排出機構9を用いて、被処理水を濾過することによって処理済水を得る。
当該膜分離活性汚泥処理システムは、生物処理槽1(生物処理工程)への排水の流入量の変動に応じて濾過モジュール8の運転数を変動させることによって、中空糸膜12を通過する処理済水の流束を適当な範囲内に維持しながら、排水の流入量とバランスするように処理水の排出量を調整することができる。このため、当該膜分離活性汚泥処理システム及び当該膜分離活性汚泥処理システムを用いる当該膜分離活性汚泥処理方法は、調整槽を使用することなく排水の流量変動に対応できる。
今回開示された実施の形態は全ての点で例示であって制限的なものではないと考えられるべきである。本発明の範囲は、上記実施形態の構成に限定されるものではなく、特許請求の範囲によって示され、特許請求の範囲と均等の意味及び範囲内での全ての変更が含まれることが意図される。
