Description

Wastewater treatment system using carrier {WASTEWATER TREATMENT APPARATUS USING MICROBIAL MEDIA}

The present invention relates to a carrier using, for example, a modified wood chip, and a small-scale wastewater treatment apparatus in which the carrier is installed in the anaerobic tank, the first and the second aeration tank, respectively.

In population centers of large cities, large-scale sewage treatment plants or large-scale sewage treatment plants are installed, and residential sewage is collectively processed by linking the conduits in the districts. Unlike the general pollutants, the domestic sewage not only directly affects water pollution, Small sources are scattered throughout the country. In particular, in urban or rural areas where sewer supply is insufficient, most of the living sewage is discharged to the natural water system and the damage of the water ecosystem is accelerated as it flows beyond the midnight capacity of the lake or river. As nutrients such as nitrogen and phosphorus are continuously introduced into the water, eutrophication is frequently occurring, and the value of use as a source of living water is greatly impaired.

Chemical and biological methods are used to remove organic matter and nutrients in domestic sewage or waste water. However, the characteristics of untreated sewage, the type of sewage treatment method, and the degree of nutrient removal required should be considered. The removal of organic matter or nutrients through the chemical method ensures high efficiency, while biological methods with relatively low sludge generation are preferred due to economic burden due to drug purchase costs and large amounts of sludge.

The main process of the biological method is aerobic process by mixing sewage and microorganisms to induce the metabolism of microorganisms to remove organic matter and nutrients. Small-scale sewage treatment equipment uses activated sludge or long-term aeration techniques that use suspended growth microorganisms at first, which is difficult to cope with sludge swelling phenomenon and large load fluctuations and large surplus sludge occurs during operation. There is a problem such as.

For this reason, the carrier which can process microorganisms to a support body is used a lot of methods using the high concentration microorganism attached to a carrier by the method of adding a floating growth method. In the biofilm process using a carrier, microorganisms adhere to the carrier to form a biofilm, which is different from the microorganisms in a dispersed state, and the physiological mechanisms of the species are different, resulting in increased resistance, increased growth rate, increased metabolic activity, and resistance to toxic effects. do.

The microenvironment formed on the solid surface has a different pH, ionic strength and organic matter concentration than the whole environment. Therefore, when microbial community is different, microorganisms with slow growth rate are preserved in the system by attachment and maintain high concentration. The concentration of organic matter is increased due to the adhesion of solid surface and the hydrolyzate is not leaked to provide a good environment for microbial growth, thereby increasing microbial activity. In addition, resistance to toxic substances is increased by the age of microorganisms, food chains, and encapsulation of bacteria, and the amount of sludge generated to the outside is small and the degradability of hardly decomposable substances is also strong.

And, since the biofilm is formed, unlike the activated sludge method, there is no sludge floating phenomenon due to the sludge swelling phenomenon, so the operation management is easy and the microbial concentration per unit volume can be maintained high due to the operating characteristics. In order to increase the treatment efficiency of the biofilm process, it is important to apply the carrier to the actual process, while operating in the optimum operating conditions suitable for the carrier while maintaining the appropriate amount of adherent microorganisms. In addition, since it is necessary to keep the microorganisms used for wastewater treatment in an aeration tank at an appropriate level, an appropriate microorganism attachment carrier is necessary for the growth or adhesion growth of the microorganisms.

There are many kinds of carriers such as activated carbon fibers, powdered activated carbon, polyvinyl alcohol and porous plastics, waste yagurt bottles, polymer resin fiber yarns, porous ceramics or glass carriers, and diatomaceous earth. As the microbial carrier, it is necessary to use a carrier suitable for the characteristics of the influent wastewater, such as the concentration of organic matter in the wastewater, the concentration of nitrogen and phosphorus, the presence of toxic substances, and the acidity of the wastewater.

In order to increase the treatment efficiency of the biofilm process, the biofilm surface area per unit surface area of the carrier should be increased.Because the biofilm is formed / grown by attaching microorganisms to the carrier surface, it is possible to form biofilm quickly in engineering terms and maintain high concentration of microorganisms. It is important to find out the conditions of the carrier. In addition, the small-scale wastewater treatment device needs a new high performance carrier application in view of the fact that it is a wastewater treatment device using a carrier.

The present invention has been devised in view of the above circumstances, and can be recycled as a carrier by modifying various kinds of materials, and by using the characteristics of the carrier, the efficiency of wastewater treatment can be improved and the process is simple and operation is easy. The purpose of the present invention is to provide a wastewater treatment apparatus using a carrier that can evaluate the reliability through the characteristics and treatment efficiency of the reactor by removing the biological organic matter and nutrients by installing the bioreactor in the real sewage treatment plant. have.

Hereinafter, embodiments of the present invention will be described in detail with reference to the accompanying drawings.

1 is a plan view showing a wastewater treatment apparatus using a carrier according to an embodiment of the present invention, Figures 2 to 4 are the A-A, B-B, C-C shown in Figure 1 Each is a cross section.

First, the carrier 10 is a modified wood chip, which is installed in the anaerobic tank 3, the first and the second aeration tanks 4 and 5, which will be described later. The shape of the carrier 10 is amorphous, tetrahedral, elliptical and circular. -80%, 2-20 Cm in size, wood or modified wood chips, porous plastics, waste yogurt bottles, high-molecular resin fibers, foamed resins such as polyurethane, crushed stone such as basalt or granite, granular activated carbon or sawdust It is made by filling a powdery contact medium such as.

On the front of the anaerobic tank 3, a storage tank 1 and an anaerobic tank 2 are provided, and these tanks 1-3 are provided with siphons 11 on one side thereof, respectively. On the rear surface of the second aeration tank 5, a settling tank 6 and a discharge tank 7 are installed in parallel as shown in FIG. The air is sent by the blower 8 to the bottom of the said 1st and 2nd aeration tanks 4 and 5, the settling tank 6, and the discharge tank 7, respectively. In addition, the settling tank 6 is connected to the storage tank 1 through the sludge conveying member 9 while the second aeration tank 5 is connected through the pipe 12, the second aeration tank 5 and the first aeration tank. 4 is connected through the outlet 13 of the lower part.

Small-scale wastewater treatment apparatus of the present invention is the storage tank 1 and the anaerobic tank 2, the anaerobic tank 3 of the carrier 10, the first and second aeration tank 4, the external waste water sequentially through the inlet shown in FIG. 5) and discharged through the parallel settling tank 6 and the discharge tank 7 to the outlet. As shown in FIG. 2, sludge in the settling tank 6 is sent to the storage tank 1 through the sludge conveying member 9.

In the present invention configured as described above, the size of each tank (1-7) is based on the central anaerobic tank (3), and the storage tank (1): anaerobic tank (2): anaerobic tank (3): first aeration tank by volume ratio (4): second aeration tank (5): sedimentation tank (6) + discharge tank (7) are each made of a ratio of 0.3-0.7: 1.5-2: 1.0: 2-3: 1-2: 0.3-0.7, The height is 1.5-2.4 and is divided into 0.7-1.1 discharge tank and 0.8-1.3 settling tank. In addition, the shape and level of each tank 1-7, the intake water position of the inflow water, the outlet position of the outlet, the filling position of the carrier 10, the position of the blower 8, and the like are shown in Figs.

The storage tank 1 is for classifying solids and liquids by mixing and storing the introduced wastewater and the external conveying sludge returned from the settling tank 6. The wastewater flowing into the intermediate siphon 11 of the storage tank 1 is removed from organic matter, denitrified, and solid-liquid separation by aerobic anaerobic, anaerobic, and aerobic microorganisms during a certain period of time in the anaerobic tank 2. In this anoxic tank (2), nitrogen removal (denitrification) is carried out by effectively converting the nitrogenous nitrogen returned from the precipitation tank (6) into the nitrogen gas by the denitrifying microorganism as an electron acceptor. Organics can be used as an energy source for denitrification, leading to effective organic removal.

The inflow water flowing into the middle and lower siphons 11 of the anoxic tank 2 passes through the carrier 10 in the middle from above the anaerobic tank 3 and is purified. The filling rate of the carrier 10 is 0-50% (volume ratio), and the porosity is about 30-80% although it depends on the type and material of the carrier 10.

In the anaerobic tank 3, organic matter removal and denitrification are promoted by anaerobic microorganisms attached to or suspended from the carrier 10, which releases phosphorus out of the microorganisms in the process of ingesting organic matter by the phosphorus removing microorganism. More than half of the organic matter is removed by the microorganism in the course of passing through the anaerobic tank 2 and the anaerobic tank 3, and the organic matter is further promoted by the microorganisms coated on the carrier 10. In addition, by placing the anoxic tank (2) in front of the anaerobic tank (3) it can prevent the phosphate release of the phosphorus-removing microorganism due to the nitrate nitrogen coming from the sludge conveying process.

The inflow water introduced by the siphon 11 from the lower portion of the central carrier 10 of the anaerobic tank 3 passes through the carrier 10 from the top of the first aeration tank 4 to the bottom of the first aeration tank 4. Influent water entering the second aeration tank (5) through the outlet (13) passes under the carrier (10) up. In the first and second aeration tanks 4 and 5, the aeration holes 8 'provided at the lower portion of the carrier 10 are aerated to remove even fine organic and dissolved organic matter remaining in the waste water and accelerate nitrification. Accordingly, the carrier 10 is filled in the first and second aeration tanks 4 and 5 at a volume ratio of 50 to 80%.

In the first and second aeration tanks 4 and 5, the remaining dissolved organic matter is almost removed, and this process is further facilitated by the microbial layer coated on the carrier 10. In addition, the microorganisms are strongly adsorbed in the processing of the filled carrier 10 to form a membrane to prevent the desorption of the microorganisms and to maintain strong environmental conditions against rapid external environmental changes, such as inflow of acid, alkaline wastewater. In these aeration tanks, nitrification occurs in which ammonia nitrogen is converted to nitrate nitrogens such as nitrite nitrogen and nitrate nitrogen, and higher nitrification occurs through the second aeration tank 5.

Therefore, the phosphorus removal microorganisms that have passed through the anaerobic tank 3 to the aeration tanks 4 and 5 can effectively remove phosphorus by ingesting up to five times more phosphorus due to a sudden environmental change from the anaerobic state to the aerobic state.

The inflow water introduced from the upper portion of the second aeration tank 5 moves into the sedimentation tank 6 through the pipe 12, and the sludge settles down gradually, and only the clear treated water of the upper layer flows out into the discharge tank 7. This sludge tank 6 carries sludge accumulated in the lower part of the sedimentation tank 6 through the sludge conveying member 9 to the storage tank 1, thereby maintaining the sludge residence time long, and conveying the nitrified nitrogen to the anoxic tank 2 ) To ensure effective denitrification. At the same time, the phosphorus removal microorganisms in which phosphorus is excessively ingested in the aeration tanks 4 and 5 may be precipitated and removed in the precipitation tank 6 to effectively remove phosphorus.

The treated water introduced from the upper portion of the sedimentation tank 6 precipitates and removes the fine particles suspended during the residence in the discharge vessel 7, and then flows only the clear upper water.

FIG. 5 is a plan view showing a wastewater treatment apparatus using a carrier according to an embodiment of the present invention, and FIGS. 6 to 8 illustrate parts A-A, B-B, and C-C shown in FIG. Each is a cross section.
