Description

【0001】
【発明の属する技術分野】
本発明は、都市下水や産業排水を処理するプラントの水質計測装置に関わり、特に懸濁物を含む混合液の水質を安定して計測する計測装置に関する。
【0002】
【従来の技術】
下水処理場では、下水中の有機物に加えて窒素、リンも除去できる高度処理を導入し、環境保全している。高度処理は、嫌気槽と好気槽を適切に配列させた微生物反応槽とすれば、流入する下水の水質に合った処理が行える。しかし、活性汚泥の代謝機能は流入下水の流量や水質、水温などの外乱に敏感に影響され、絶えず変化している。高度処理プラントで所定の処理水質を維持するには、現状の代謝機能に対応した適正な運転管理が必要である。
【0003】
一方、活性汚泥の反応状態を考慮した運転管理には、生物学的酸素要求量(BOD)、化学的酸素要求量(COD)、全有機炭素(TOC)や紫外線式化学的酸素要求量(UV−COD)などを指標とする有機物濃度が必要となる。また、全窒素(TN)、アンモニア態窒素(NH4−N)、硝酸態窒素(NO3−N)や亜硝酸態窒素(NO2−N)などの窒素濃度、全リン(TP)やオルトリン酸態リン(PO4−P)のリン濃度、アルカリ度などが必要となる。さらに、放流水域の環境保全の観点から、環境ホルモンやトリハロメタン前駆物質、色度なども重要な監視項目となる。
【0004】
上述した物質濃度を正確に計測し、適正な運転管理を実現するには活性汚泥や懸濁物質を分離除去した清澄な試料を計測器に供給する必要がある。活性汚泥等の懸濁物を膜を利用して固液分離し、その分離液を水質計測器の試料とする方式や、その計測情報を制御に用いる方式が提案されている。
【0005】
例えば、特許文献1は流入水や処理水を限外ろ過膜装置に直接導入し、分離液の窒素濃度やpHを測定している。特許文献2は生物反応槽に圧縮空気で洗浄できるスクリーンーを配設したストレーナで夾雑物を予め除いた懸濁液を、逆浸透膜、限外及び精密膜を膜モジュール構成した膜ろ過ユニットで固液分離し、分離液の窒素濃度を測定している。特許文献3は中空糸膜モジュールを収納した水槽に流入水を直接導入し、外圧状態の中空糸膜内側から吸引ろ過する水質計測器用除濁装置を提案している。この提案では、吸引圧力が設定値以上となった場合に、中空糸膜内部にエアーを注入し、ろ液を逆流させて膜面に付着した濁質を除去している。

【発明が解決しようとする課題】
下水処理場等の計測制御には、分離された計測用試料水が膜分離操作時に水質変化をせず、被処理液槽に対して時間遅れの少ない計測値を提供できるクロスフロー方式が有効である。
【0008】
特許文献1及び特許文献2では、下水処理場を対象として、クロスフロー方式の膜ろ過分離装置を採用した提案であるが、膜面の目詰りや破損対策が全く講じられていない。しかし、下水処理場の活性汚泥は粘着性があり、生物反応槽では濃度が1000〜3500mg/Lと高い。このような活性汚泥混合液をろ過分離すると、膜面への汚泥付着が著しく、被処理液の流れでも容易に剥離せず、ろ過能力が短期間で低下し、分離清澄水を計測器に安定して供給できない。
【0009】
また特許文献2では、生物反応槽にスクリーンー付きストレーナを設置する対策を提案しているが、ストレーナを圧縮空気で洗浄している。従って、空気を供給できない嫌気槽や汚泥を静置沈降させる沈殿池には適用が困難である。また、生物反応槽の活性汚泥混合液は非常に濁っており、液面下に設置したストレーナを見ることが不可能で、目詰りや洗浄状態を直接把握できない。このため、異常時や保守点検時には懸濁液採取管も含めてストレーナ全体を引き上げて対応する等の多大な労力を必要とする。
【0010】
また特許文献3では、ろ過液をろ過(透過)液側から被処理(供給)液側に逆流させて膜面洗浄するが、被処理液側の膜面に付着している懸濁液を万遍に洗浄することは困難である。特に、逆流媒体は懸濁物の付着密度、即ち、目詰りの少ない部分を通り、洗浄効率を低下させる。また、これらの方式は懸濁液を直接分離装置に供給しており、夾雑物による目詰りも重なり、逆洗を高頻度で実施する必要がある。当然のことであるが、この逆洗操作時はろ過液を確保できないと同時に、逆洗に用いた媒体の影響がなくなり、新鮮なろ過液が得られるまでの間、ろ過液を計測用試料として利用できない。
【0011】
これに対して、特許文献4では被処理液側の膜面を間欠的に機械洗浄している。この方式は、膜面全体が洗浄される効果があるものの、洗浄対象の膜を周期的に洗浄する間欠型であるため、洗浄対象外の膜では膜面に汚泥が層状に付着し、目詰りが進行する。間欠的機械洗浄方式は汚泥付着とその剥離、換言すれば目詰りと再生を繰り返すものである。ところで、活性汚泥は粘着性が有り、膜全面に層状化させた汚泥を剥離することは容易でない。特に、被処理液を入れたろ過槽内で平膜を回転させ、洗浄具を間欠的に固定するこの方式では、膜全面の層状化汚泥が洗浄具周辺に掻き寄せられるだけで、剥離するに至らず、洗浄効果が損なわれる問題がある。
【0012】
本発明の目的は、上記した従来技術の課題に対処してなされたもので、活性汚泥等の懸濁物を含む混合液でも清澄な試料を計測器に供給して計測する水質計測装置を提供することにある。これにより、適正なプラント管理情報を提供することが可能になる。
【0013】
【課題を解決するための手段】
本発明の水質計測装置は、上記課題を解決するため、網目状材で2室を形成し、第1室に懸濁液を導入して排出する粗分離設備と、前記粗分離設備の第2室内の粗分離懸濁液を吸引し固液分離する膜分離設備と、その吸引手段(実施例では吸引ポンプ62)と、前記膜分離設備からの分離液を一時貯留する分離液貯留設備と、貯留された分離液の水質を計測する水質計測設備を備えることを特徴とする。
【0014】
網目状材で仕切った粗分離設備の第1室に懸濁液を導入することにより、第2室は懸濁液に混在する夾雑物が網目状材で除かれた粗分離懸濁液で満たされる。この粗分離懸濁液を膜分離設備に導水することで、膜分離設備では流路閉塞や膜面の損傷が低減され、長期的に安定した固液分離操作が行え、水質計測設備に清澄な試料を継続的に供給できる。
【0015】
粗分離設備は陸上に設置し、第1室を越流排出方式とすることにより、第1室と第2室の水位比較によって網目状材の目詰り状態を即座に把握できる。第2室の水位が第1室より低ければ目詰り発生と判断し、網目状材を洗浄あるいは交換操作を実施できる。第2室方向に小幅となる網目状材を複数個設置することもでき、夾雑物の除去能向上と網目状材の洗浄、交換時に第2室への夾雑物流入を防止できる。
【0016】
攪拌設備で、第1室と第2室の液を流動させることにより、網目状材に補足された夾雑物の一部を第1室に剥離でき、網目状材の目詰りを抑制できる。また、粗分離設備での懸濁物質の沈降やスカム状物質(水面上に浮上した懸濁物質)の発生を防止でき、粗分離設備での水質変化や網目状材の目詰り等に対する抑制効果がある。
【0017】
本発明による膜分離設備は、平膜を用いたクロスフロー方式とし、粗分離懸濁液側の膜面を機械的に連続洗浄する手段(実施例では洗浄具68)を有し、分離操作後の粗分離懸濁液を粗分離設備の第2室内に還流する。連続機械洗浄は、固液分離の対象となった粗分離懸濁液中の懸濁物質が膜面に付着すると同時に剥離させ、懸濁物質がケ−キ層(層状化)を形成するのを防止する。
【0018】
クロスフロー方式に伴なう流れは、膜面付着物質の剥離に加えて、機械洗浄で剥離した懸濁物質の排除と膜面に振動を与えて機械洗浄による剥離能を助長させる相乗的効果を有し、膜の目詰りを防止する。分離操作後の粗分離懸濁液を粗分離設備の第2室に還流することは、粗分離設備の第1室から第2室への流通量を低減して夾雑物による網目状材の目詰り抑制と、網目状材に補足された夾雑物を第1室に排除して網目状材を洗浄する機能を持つ。これらはクロスフロー方式に寄因する効果となる。
【0019】
また、膜分離設備は、平膜を介してろ過容器と懸濁容器を交互に1組または複数組配設し、これらの容器外に設けた駆動手段(実施例ではモータ66)に連動して回転する洗浄具を懸濁容器内に遊挿させる。そして、各膜面を直接洗浄しながら各懸濁容器に粗分離懸濁液を分配通水させ、全ろ過容器に接続した吸引手段で固液分離する。このような構成により、積層化した全ての膜面を常時均等に洗浄でき、また、粗分離懸濁液の分配通水で懸濁容器内の流速が増加してさらに膜面の洗浄効果を高める。
【0020】
膜分離設備のうち、ろ過容器と懸濁容器及び平膜と洗浄具を一体化させてモジュール化し、カートリッジとして取り扱える。膜分離設備に導水された粗分離懸濁液はモジュールの外部に流出することはなく、モジュールの装着・脱着を簡単に実施できる。
【0021】
膜分離設備には以下の調節機構と制御装置が設けられる。前記駆動手段に回転数を調節できる回転数調節機構、前記吸引手段に吸引量(又は稼動/停止時間)を調節できる吸引量調節機構を設ける。また、前記懸濁容器への粗分離懸濁液の通水量(又は稼動/停止時間)を調節できる通水量調節機構、前記分離液貯留設備の分離液水位を計測する水位計測手段、この水位値と予め設定した所定値に基づいて膜分離設備の分離状況を判定する制御装置を設ける。この制御装置がろ過流束異常と判断した場合に、所定のろ過流束を維持するように前記回転数調節機構、前記吸引量調節機構、前記通水量調節機構を所定の順序で制御する。
【0022】
例えばろ過流束が減少した場合は、先ず洗浄治具の回転数を増加させることで膜面目詰り物質の排除を行い、ろ過流束を増加させる。回転数を最大まで増加させても所定のろ過流束が得られない場合は、次に懸濁容器への粗分離懸濁液の通水量を増加させることでろ過圧力を上昇させ、ろ過流束を増加させる。また、通水量の増加によって膜面及び洗浄治具に付着している懸濁物質を剥離する効果も有する。通水量を最大まで増加させても所定のろ過流束が得られない場合は、次にポンプ吸引量を増加させることでろ過圧力を上昇させ、ろ過流束を増加させる。吸引量を最大まで増加させても所定のろ過流束が得られない場合は警報を発生させる。これらの操作は固液分離操作を損なうことなくできる為、継続的にろ過流束を維持できる。また、必要以上にろ過流束が得られた場合には、前記操作と逆の操作を行なうことによって、所定ろ過流束を維持する。
【0023】
【発明の実施の形態】
本発明の実施の形態を説明する。図1は一実施例による水質計億装置の構成を示すブロック図である。水質計測装置100は粗分離設備50、膜分離設備60、分離液貯留設備80、水質計測設備90、及び懸濁液供給ポンプ51、粗分離懸濁液供給ポンプ54、吸引ポンプ62で構成される。粗分離設備50は網目状材53で第1室50aと第2室50bに仕切られ、両室内の液を流動させる撹拌器52を有し、第1室50a側を越流構造とする。プラント施設1は、例えば活性汚泥反応槽である。
【0024】
網目状材53には金属、プラスチック、布製などを使用できる。網目は膜分離設備の流路径を考慮して設定するが、下水処理場の懸濁液を対象とした本発明者らの実験によれば、2mm幅以上が好適であった。
【0025】
懸濁液供給ポンプ51は反応槽1の懸濁液1aの一部を供給液55として粗分離設備50の第1室50aに導水し、その越流液56を反応槽1に返流する。第2室50bには供給液55中の食品屑、種子、毛髪、木片、プラスチックやゴム等の夾雑物を網目状材53で除いた粗分離懸濁液57が流入する。第2室50bの粗分離懸濁液57は粗分離懸濁液供給ポンプ54で膜分離設備60に通水される。
【0026】
膜分離設備60はクロスフロー方式(詳細後述)で、粗分離懸濁液57は内蔵する膜面を通過させてその一部を吸引ポンプ62で吸引し、清澄な分離液63として分離液貯留設備80に送水する。膜面通過後の大半の粗分離懸濁液は排出懸濁液61として粗分離設備50の第2室50bに還流する。排出懸濁液61は反応槽1に直接返してもよいが、第2室50bに還流することにより網目状材53の第1室50a側に捕捉された夾雑物を剥離除去する自己洗浄効果がある。
【0027】
撹拌器52は第1室50aと第2室50bで活性汚泥が沈降するのを防止し、さらに、両室の液を相互交換して粗分離設備50内の水質を均一化するとともに、網目状材53で捕捉された夾雑物を第1室50a側に剥離させる洗浄機能を持つ。
【0028】
このように、粗分離懸濁液57を膜分離設備60に導水することで、膜分離設備では流路閉塞や膜面の損傷が低減され、長期的に安定した固液分離操作が行え、水質計測設備100に清澄な試料を継続的に供給できる。
【0029】
分離液貯留設備80に一時貯留された分離液82は、水質計測設備90に内蔵された試料採取ポンプで定期的に分取され、水質計測設備90で所定の測定方式に基づいて水中濃度を計測する。分離液貯留設備80は、少なくとも水質計測設備90が1回に分取する量を確保する貯留容積とし、余剰液84を越流排出させる。
【0030】
水質計測設備90は活性汚泥を所定濃度以上含むと計測誤差となるBOD、COD、TOCやUV−CODなどの有機物濃度、TN、NH4−N、NO3−NやNO2−Nなどの窒素濃度、TPやPO4−Pのリン濃度、アルカリ度を対象とする。さらに、環境ホルモンやトリハロメタン前駆物質、色度等も対象とする。
【0031】
なお、粗分離設備50及び膜分離設備60は設備内で計測対象物質の水中濃度を変化させないために、30分以内の滞留時間とすることが望ましい。懸濁液供給ポンプ51は陸上に設置しているが、プラント施設1に直接浸漬する水中設置方式でもよい。
【0032】
図2に膜分離設備の構成例を示す。膜分離設備60は平膜69を挟んでろ過容器64と懸濁容器65を横方向に設置し、Oリングやパッキンなどの密封材71を介してこれらを密閉、固定する。減速機付きモータ66の回転軸67に遊挿されて連動する洗浄具68は、懸濁容器65側の平膜69面に接触するように配置する。モータ66は連続稼動させ、平膜69面を洗浄具68で連続洗浄する。懸濁容器65の下部から粗分離懸濁液57を流入させ、上部から排出懸濁液61を粗分離設備50の第2室50bに導水する。これによって、粗分離懸濁液57の持込み気泡が容器内に溜まることなく排出できる。
【0033】
ろ過容器64には平膜69の補強とろ過液の捕集を目的に内蔵させた多孔板70と、多孔板70に連通した集水口72を設ける。集水口72に接続した吸引ポンプ62を運転し、粗分離懸濁液57をクロスフロー方式で膜ろ過して分離液63を分離液貯留設備80に送水する。このろ過の過程で懸濁容器65側の膜面に捕捉された懸濁物質は、捕捉と同時に洗浄具68と粗分離懸濁液57の流れで連続洗浄され、懸濁容器65から排出される。なお、ろ過容器64と懸濁容器65及び平膜69と洗浄具69を一体化させてモジュール化し、カートリッジとして取り扱える。
【0034】
図3は膜分離設備の他の実施例で、平膜を積層化した構成図である。膜分離設備60は3個のろ過容器64a、64b、64cと2個の懸濁容器65a、65bを交互に配設し、その間に4枚の平膜69a−69dを設けている。両端のろ過容器64a、64cは片面からろ過し、中間のろ過容器64bは両面からろ過できる構造とする。それぞれのろ過容器上部に設けた集水口72は互いに連通し、吸引ポンプ62に接続される。79はろ過容器のドレン管である。
【0035】
懸濁容器65a、65bは中空構造とし、回転軸67と連動して両面に配置された平膜69を直接洗浄できる洗浄具68をそれぞれの容器に遊挿させる。粗分離懸濁液57は分岐し、各懸濁容器65a、65bの下部から流入させて上部から排出する。それぞれの排出液は合流させて排出懸濁液61とする。
【0036】
図4は洗浄具の構成例を示す。図3の例における洗浄具68は、回転軸67が挿入される開口部68cを中央に設けたフレーム68aの両側に微細毛68bを層状に配列させる。微細毛68bは積層化固定したときに少なくとも両膜面に接触する長さとする。開口部68cは回転軸67より若干大きめにして遊びを持たせる。これにより、洗浄具68の全体が回転軸67に連動して連続回転し、どの回転位置においても、微細毛68bは両側の平膜69に均等に接触させることができる。これを遊挿と称し、両膜面の均等洗浄と損傷防止に有効である。回転軸67と開口部68cの断面形状を矩形とすれば、洗浄具68は固定せずに回転軸67と連動する。
【0037】
図3の例では、3個のろ過容器64と2個の懸濁容器65としたが、本発明はこれに限定するものでなく、n個のろ過容器とn−1個の懸濁容器の組で構成し、また、これらの容器を縦方向に積層することもできる。
【0038】
このような構成により、積層化した全ての膜面を常時均等に洗浄でき、また、粗分離懸濁液の分配通水で懸濁容器内の流速が増加してさらに膜面の洗浄効果を高める。
【0039】
図5は水質計測装置の制御のための構成図を示す。本例は平膜69面のろ過流束を維持する方式である。調節器54aは粗分離懸濁液供給ポンプ54の回転数あるいは稼動と停止の時間を、調節器62aは吸引ポンプ62の回転数あるいは稼動と停止の時間を、調節器66aはモータ66の回転数調節を指示できる装置である。
【0040】
分離液貯留設備80に水位計85を設置し、計測値Lを制御装置88に入力する。制御装置88では、貯留設備80の水位計測値Lが設定値Lmin以下であれば試料量不足と判定し、ろ過流束を増加させる方向へ調節器62a等を操作する。水位計測値Lが設定値Lmax以上であれば試料量過多と判定し、ろ過流束を減少させる方向へ調節器62a等を操作する。水位設定値Lminは、少なくとも水質計測設備90が1回の計測に使用する量以上の容積となるように設定する。
【0041】
図6は制御装置の制御フローを示す。制御装置88は、先ずステップS1で水位計85の水位計測値Lが設定値Lmin以下か判定する。Lmin以下の場合はろ過流束を増加させるためステップS2へ、そうでない場合にはステップS9へ移行する。
【0042】
ステップS2では、膜分離設備60のモータ66のモータ操作量Aが最大値Amaxか判定する。Amaxの場合はステップS3へ、そうでない場合にはS4へ移行し、モータ操作量Aを一定量(ΔA)増加させ終了する。ステップS3では粗分離懸濁液供給ポンプ54の粗分離懸濁液供給ポンプ操作量Bが最大値Bmaxか判定する。Bmaxの場合はステップS5へ、そうでない場合にはS6へ移行し、粗分離懸濁液供給ポンプ操作量Bを一定量(ΔB)増加させ終了する。ステップS5では吸引ポンプ62の吸引ポンプ操作量Cが最大値Cmaxか判定する。Cmaxの場合はステップS7へ、そうでない場合にはS8へ移行し、吸引ポンプ操作量Cを一定量(ΔC)増加させ終了する。ステップS7では警報を発生させて終了する。
【0043】
一方、ステップS9では水位計85の水位計測値が上限値Lmax以上か判定する。以上の場合はろ過流束を減少させるためステップS10へ、そうでない場合は終了する。ステップS10では吸引ポンプ62の吸引ポンプ操作量Cが最小値Cminか判定する。Cminの場合はステップS11へ、そうでない場合にはS12へ移行し、吸引ポンプ操作量Cを一定量(ΔC)減少させ終了する。ステップS11ではポンプ54の粗分離懸濁液供給ポンプ操作量Bが最小値Bminか判定する。Bminの場合はステップS13へ、そうでない場合にはS14へ移行し、粗分離懸濁液供給ポンプ操作量Bを一定量(ΔB)減少させ終了する。ステップS13ではモータ66のモータ操作量Aが最小値Aminか判定する。Aminの場合は終了、そうでない場合にはS15へ移行し、モータ操作量Aを一定量(ΔA)減少させ終了する。本制御フローは一定周期ごとに実施するものとする。
【0044】
なお、粗分離懸濁液供給ポンプ操作量Bとして懸濁容器への粗分離懸濁液の通水量及び/又は稼動/停止時間を調節する。また、吸引ポンプ操作量Cとして吸引量及び/又は稼動/停止時間を調節する。
【0045】
これによれば、ろ過流束が減少した場合は、先ず洗浄具68の回転数を増加させることで膜面目詰り物質の排除を行い、ろ過流束を増加させる。回転数を最大まで増加させても所定のろ過流束が得られない場合は、次に懸濁容器65への粗分離懸濁液の通水量を増加させることでろ過圧力を上昇させ、ろ過流束を増加させる。通水量を最大まで増加させても所定のろ過流束が得られない場合は、次にポンプ吸引量を増加させることでろ過圧力を上昇させ、ろ過流束を増加させる。吸引量を最大まで増加させても所定のろ過流束が得られない場合は警報を発生させる。
【0046】
これらの操作は固液分離操作を損なうことなくできる為、継続的にろ過流束を維持できる。また、必要以上にろ過流束が得られた場合には、上記したように、前記操作と逆の操作を行なうことによって、所定ろ過流束を維持することができる。
【0047】
【発明の効果】
本発明による水質計測装置は活性汚泥等の懸濁物を含む混合液でも継続的に固液分離操作を行えるので、清澄な試料のみを安定して供給することができ、高精度で高信頼性の水質計測装置を提供できる。

TECHNICAL FIELD OF THE INVENTION
The present invention relates to a water quality measuring device for a plant that treats municipal sewage and industrial wastewater, and more particularly to a measuring device that stably measures the water quality of a mixed solution containing suspended matter.
[0002]
[Prior art]
In the sewage treatment plant, advanced treatment that can remove nitrogen and phosphorus in addition to organic matter in sewage is introduced to protect the environment. In the advanced treatment, if a microbial reaction tank in which an anaerobic tank and an aerobic tank are appropriately arranged can be treated according to the quality of the incoming sewage. However, the metabolic function of activated sludge is continually changing, being sensitive to disturbances such as the flow rate of incoming sewage, water quality, and water temperature. In order to maintain a predetermined quality of treated water in an advanced treatment plant, proper operation management corresponding to the current metabolic function is required.
[0003]
On the other hand, operation management in consideration of the reaction state of activated sludge includes biological oxygen demand (BOD), chemical oxygen demand (COD), total organic carbon (TOC), and ultraviolet chemical oxygen demand (UV). -COD) or the like is required as an index. Further, nitrogen concentrations such as total nitrogen (TN), ammonia nitrogen (NH4-N), nitrate nitrogen (NO3-N) and nitrite nitrogen (NO2-N), total phosphorus (TP) and orthophosphate phosphorus The phosphorus concentration and alkalinity of (PO4-P) are required. In addition, from the viewpoint of environmental protection of the effluent area, environmental hormones, trihalomethane precursors, chromaticity, etc. are also important monitoring items.
[0004]
In order to accurately measure the above-mentioned substance concentration and realize proper operation management, it is necessary to supply a clear sample from which activated sludge and suspended substances have been separated and removed to a measuring instrument. A method has been proposed in which a suspended matter such as activated sludge is separated into solid and liquid by using a membrane, and the separated liquid is used as a sample of a water quality measuring instrument, and a method of using the measurement information for control.
[0005]
For example, in Patent Document 1, inflow water or treated water is directly introduced into an ultrafiltration membrane device, and the nitrogen concentration and pH of the separated liquid are measured. Patent Document 2 discloses that a suspension from which impurities are removed in advance by a strainer provided with a screen capable of being washed with compressed air in a biological reaction tank is solidified by a membrane filtration unit comprising a reverse osmosis membrane, an ultrafiltration membrane and a precision membrane. The liquid is separated and the nitrogen concentration of the separated liquid is measured. Patent Literature 3 proposes a water quality measuring device clarifier for directly introducing inflow water into a water tank containing a hollow fiber membrane module and performing suction filtration from the inside of the hollow fiber membrane in an external pressure state. In this proposal, when the suction pressure becomes equal to or higher than a set value, air is injected into the hollow fiber membrane, and the filtrate is caused to flow backward to remove the turbid matter attached to the membrane surface.

[Problems to be solved by the invention]
For measurement control of sewage treatment plants, etc., a cross-flow method that can provide a measured value with little time delay to the liquid tank to be treated is effective because the separated sample water for measurement does not change the water quality during the membrane separation operation. is there.
[0008]
Patent Literature 1 and Patent Literature 2 propose a cross-flow type membrane filtration / separation apparatus for sewage treatment plants, but do not take any measures against clogging or breakage of the membrane surface. However, activated sludge in a sewage treatment plant is sticky, and its concentration is as high as 1000 to 3500 mg / L in a biological reaction tank. When such an activated sludge mixture is separated by filtration, the sludge adheres significantly to the membrane surface, does not easily separate even in the flow of the liquid to be treated, and the filtration capacity is reduced in a short period of time. Can not supply.
[0009]
Patent Literature 2 proposes a measure for installing a strainer with a screen in a biological reaction tank, but the strainer is washed with compressed air. Therefore, it is difficult to apply the method to an anaerobic tank to which air cannot be supplied or a sedimentation tank for allowing sludge to stand still. Further, the activated sludge mixture in the biological reaction tank is very turbid, and it is impossible to see the strainer installed below the liquid level, and it is not possible to directly grasp the clogging and the cleaning state. Therefore, at the time of abnormality or maintenance and inspection, a great deal of labor is required, such as taking up the entire strainer including the suspension sampling pipe and taking measures.
[0010]
In Patent Document 3, the membrane is cleaned by flowing the filtrate back from the filtrate (permeate) to the liquid to be treated (supplied), but the suspension adhering to the membrane on the liquid to be treated is removed. It is difficult to wash evenly. In particular, the backflow medium passes through the suspended mass, i.e. the less clogged portion, and reduces the washing efficiency. Further, in these systems, the suspension is directly supplied to the separation device, and clogging with foreign substances is also overlapped, so that it is necessary to carry out backwashing at high frequency. As a matter of course, at the time of this backwashing operation, the filtrate cannot be secured, and at the same time, the influence of the medium used for the backwash disappears, and the filtrate is used as a measurement sample until a fresh filtrate is obtained. Not available.
[0011]
On the other hand, in Patent Document 4, the film surface on the liquid to be treated side is intermittently mechanically cleaned. Although this method has the effect of cleaning the entire surface of the film, it is an intermittent type that periodically cleans the film to be cleaned. Progresses. The intermittent mechanical cleaning system repeats the adhesion and removal of sludge, in other words, clogging and regeneration. Incidentally, activated sludge has adhesiveness, and it is not easy to remove sludge layered on the entire surface of the membrane. In particular, in this method in which the flat membrane is rotated in the filtration tank containing the liquid to be treated, and the cleaning tool is intermittently fixed, the layered sludge on the entire surface of the membrane is only swept around the cleaning tool, and is separated. As a result, there is a problem that the cleaning effect is impaired.
[0012]
An object of the present invention has been made in view of the above-mentioned problems of the related art, and provides a water quality measuring device that supplies a clear sample to a measuring instrument and measures even a mixed solution containing a suspended matter such as activated sludge. Is to do. This makes it possible to provide appropriate plant management information.
[0013]
[Means for Solving the Problems]
In order to solve the above-mentioned problems, a water quality measuring device of the present invention comprises two chambers made of a mesh material, a coarse separation facility for introducing and discharging a suspension into a first chamber, and a second separation facility for the coarse separation facility. A membrane separation facility for sucking the roughly separated suspension in the room to perform solid-liquid separation, a suction means thereof (a suction pump 62 in the embodiment), and a separated liquid storage facility for temporarily storing the separated liquid from the membrane separation facility; It is characterized by having a water quality measuring device for measuring the water quality of the stored separated liquid.
[0014]
By introducing the suspension into the first chamber of the coarse separation facility partitioned by the mesh material, the second chamber is filled with the coarsely separated suspension in which impurities mixed in the suspension are removed by the mesh material. It is. By introducing the crude separation suspension to the membrane separation equipment, the clogging of the flow path and the damage to the membrane surface are reduced in the membrane separation equipment, and the solid-liquid separation operation can be performed in a long-term stable manner. The sample can be supplied continuously.
[0015]
The coarse separation equipment is installed on land, and the first chamber is set to the overflow discharge method, so that the clogging state of the mesh material can be immediately grasped by comparing the water levels of the first chamber and the second chamber. If the water level in the second chamber is lower than the first chamber, it is determined that clogging has occurred, and the mesh material can be washed or replaced. It is also possible to install a plurality of mesh members having a small width in the direction of the second chamber, thereby improving the ability to remove impurities and preventing the inflow of the impurities into the second chamber at the time of washing and replacing the mesh members.
[0016]
By flowing the liquids in the first and second chambers with the agitation equipment, some of the contaminants captured by the mesh material can be separated into the first chamber, and clogging of the mesh material can be suppressed. In addition, sedimentation of suspended solids and generation of scum-like substances (suspended substances floating on the water surface) can be prevented in the coarse separation facility, and the effect of suppressing water quality changes and clogging of the mesh-like material in the coarse separation facility can be prevented. There is.
[0017]
The membrane separation equipment according to the present invention employs a cross-flow method using a flat membrane, and has means for mechanically and continuously cleaning the membrane surface on the coarse separation suspension side (in the embodiment, a cleaning tool 68). Is returned to the second chamber of the coarse separation facility. The continuous mechanical washing is to remove suspended substances in the coarsely separated suspension subjected to solid-liquid separation at the same time as adhering to the membrane surface and peeling off the suspended substances to form a cake layer (stratification). To prevent.
[0018]
The flow accompanying the cross-flow method has the synergistic effect of removing suspended substances removed by mechanical cleaning and applying vibration to the membrane surface to enhance the peeling ability by mechanical cleaning, in addition to the removal of substances adhered to the membrane surface. To prevent film clogging. Refluxing the coarse separation suspension after the separation operation to the second chamber of the coarse separation equipment reduces the flow amount from the first chamber to the second chamber of the coarse separation equipment and reduces the amount of mesh material due to impurities. It has a function to suppress clogging and to wash the mesh material by removing impurities trapped in the mesh material into the first chamber. These have an effect attributed to the cross-flow method.
[0019]
In the membrane separation equipment, one set or a plurality of sets of filtration vessels and suspension vessels are alternately arranged via a flat membrane, and interlocked with driving means (motor 66 in the embodiment) provided outside these vessels. The rotating washing tool is loosely inserted into the suspension container. Then, while the respective membrane surfaces are directly washed, the roughly separated suspension is distributed and passed through each suspension container, and solid-liquid separation is performed by suction means connected to all the filtration containers. With such a configuration, all of the laminated membrane surfaces can always be uniformly washed, and the flow rate in the suspension vessel is increased by the distribution and flow of the coarsely separated suspension, thereby further enhancing the membrane surface cleaning effect. .
[0020]
Among the membrane separation equipment, the filtration vessel and the suspension vessel, and the flat membrane and the cleaning tool are integrated into a module to be handled as a cartridge. The coarse separation suspension introduced into the membrane separation equipment does not flow out of the module, and the module can be easily attached and detached.
[0021]
The following adjustment mechanism and control device are provided in the membrane separation equipment. The driving means is provided with a rotation speed adjusting mechanism capable of adjusting the rotation speed, and the suction means is provided with a suction amount adjusting mechanism capable of adjusting the suction amount (or operation / stop time). A water flow rate adjusting mechanism capable of adjusting a water flow rate (or an operation / stop time) of the coarsely separated suspension to the suspension container; a water level measuring means for measuring a separated liquid level of the separated liquid storage facility; And a controller that determines the separation state of the membrane separation equipment based on a predetermined value set in advance. When the control device determines that the filtration flux is abnormal, the controller controls the rotation speed adjustment mechanism, the suction amount adjustment mechanism, and the water flow rate adjustment mechanism in a predetermined order so as to maintain a predetermined filtration flux.
[0022]
For example, when the filtration flux decreases, the number of rotations of the cleaning jig is first increased to eliminate the material clogging the membrane surface, and the filtration flux is increased. If the specified filtration flux is not obtained even when the rotation speed is increased to the maximum, then increase the filtration pressure by increasing the water flow rate of the coarsely separated suspension to the suspension vessel, and increase the filtration flux. Increase. In addition, there is also an effect of removing suspended substances adhering to the membrane surface and the cleaning jig by increasing the flow rate of water. If the predetermined filtration flux cannot be obtained even when the flow rate is increased to the maximum, the filtration pressure is increased by increasing the pump suction amount, and the filtration flux is increased. If a predetermined filtration flux cannot be obtained even when the suction amount is increased to the maximum, an alarm is generated. Since these operations can be performed without impairing the solid-liquid separation operation, the filtration flux can be continuously maintained. Further, when the filtration flux is obtained more than necessary, a predetermined filtration flux is maintained by performing an operation reverse to the above operation.
[0023]
BEST MODE FOR CARRYING OUT THE INVENTION
An embodiment of the present invention will be described. FIG. 1 is a block diagram showing the configuration of a water quality meter according to one embodiment. The water quality measuring device 100 includes a coarse separation facility 50, a membrane separation facility 60, a separated liquid storage facility 80, a water quality measurement facility 90, a suspension supply pump 51, a coarse separation suspension supply pump 54, and a suction pump 62. . The coarse separation equipment 50 is divided into a first chamber 50a and a second chamber 50b by a mesh material 53, has a stirrer 52 for flowing the liquid in both chambers, and the first chamber 50a side has an overflow structure. The plant facility 1 is, for example, an activated sludge reaction tank.
[0024]
The mesh material 53 can be made of metal, plastic, cloth or the like. The mesh is set in consideration of the flow path diameter of the membrane separation equipment. According to an experiment performed by the present inventors on a suspension in a sewage treatment plant, a mesh width of 2 mm or more was preferable.
[0025]
The suspension supply pump 51 guides a part of the suspension 1 a in the reaction tank 1 as a supply liquid 55 to the first chamber 50 a of the coarse separation facility 50, and returns the overflow liquid 56 to the reaction tank 1. The coarse separation suspension 57 from which the food debris, seeds, hair, wood chips, and foreign substances such as plastic and rubber in the supply liquid 55 are removed by the mesh material 53 flows into the second chamber 50b. The coarse separation suspension 57 in the second chamber 50 b is passed through the membrane separation equipment 60 by the coarse separation suspension supply pump 54.
[0026]
The membrane separation equipment 60 is of a cross-flow type (details will be described later). Send water to 80. Most of the coarse separation suspension after passing through the membrane surface is returned to the second chamber 50b of the coarse separation equipment 50 as the discharge suspension 61. Although the discharged suspension 61 may be returned directly to the reaction tank 1, the self-cleaning effect of separating and removing impurities trapped on the first chamber 50 a side of the mesh material 53 by refluxing to the second chamber 50 b is achieved. is there.
[0027]
The stirrer 52 prevents the activated sludge from settling in the first chamber 50a and the second chamber 50b, and further exchanges the liquid in both chambers to make the water quality in the coarse separation equipment 50 uniform and to form a mesh. It has a cleaning function to peel off contaminants captured by the material 53 toward the first chamber 50a.
[0028]
In this way, by introducing the coarsely separated suspension 57 to the membrane separation facility 60, blockage of the flow path and damage to the membrane surface are reduced in the membrane separation facility, and a stable solid-liquid separation operation can be performed over a long period of time. A clear sample can be continuously supplied to the measuring equipment 100.
[0029]
The separated liquid 82 temporarily stored in the separated liquid storage equipment 80 is periodically sampled by a sampling pump incorporated in the water quality measurement equipment 90, and the water quality measurement equipment 90 measures the concentration in water based on a predetermined measurement method. I do. The separated liquid storage facility 80 has a storage volume that secures at least the amount that the water quality measurement facility 90 collects at one time, and causes the surplus liquid 84 to overflow and discharge.
[0030]
The water quality measurement equipment 90 is a measurement error when the activated sludge contains a predetermined concentration or more, an organic substance concentration such as BOD, COD, TOC and UV-COD, a nitrogen concentration such as TN, NH4-N, NO3-N and NO2-N, and a TP. And PO4-P phosphorus concentration and alkalinity. In addition, environmental hormones, trihalomethane precursors, chromaticity, etc. are also targeted.
[0031]
The residence time of the crude separation equipment 50 and the membrane separation equipment 60 is desirably 30 minutes or less so as not to change the concentration of the substance to be measured in water in the equipment. The suspension supply pump 51 is installed on land, but may be an underwater installation type in which it is directly immersed in the plant facility 1.
[0032]
FIG. 2 shows a configuration example of the membrane separation equipment. In the membrane separation equipment 60, a filtration vessel 64 and a suspension vessel 65 are installed laterally with a flat membrane 69 interposed therebetween, and these are sealed and fixed via a sealing material 71 such as an O-ring or packing. A cleaning tool 68 that is loosely inserted into and interlocked with a rotating shaft 67 of a motor 66 with a speed reducer is arranged so as to contact the flat membrane 69 on the suspension container 65 side. The motor 66 is continuously operated, and the flat film 69 is continuously cleaned by the cleaning tool 68. The coarse separation suspension 57 flows in from the lower part of the suspension vessel 65, and the discharge suspension 61 is guided to the second chamber 50b of the coarse separation equipment 50 from the upper part. As a result, the carry-in bubbles of the coarse separation suspension 57 can be discharged without collecting in the container.
[0033]
The filtration container 64 is provided with a perforated plate 70 built in for the purpose of reinforcing the flat membrane 69 and collecting the filtrate, and a water collecting port 72 communicating with the perforated plate 70. The suction pump 62 connected to the water collecting port 72 is operated, and the roughly separated suspension 57 is subjected to membrane filtration by a cross-flow method, and the separated liquid 63 is sent to the separated liquid storage facility 80. Suspended matter trapped on the membrane surface of the suspension vessel 65 in the course of this filtration is continuously washed with the flow of the cleaning tool 68 and the coarsely separated suspension 57 simultaneously with the capture, and is discharged from the suspension vessel 65. . In addition, the filtration container 64 and the suspension container 65 and the flat membrane 69 and the cleaning tool 69 can be integrated into a module to be handled as a cartridge.
[0034]
FIG. 3 shows another embodiment of the membrane separation equipment, in which a flat membrane is laminated. In the membrane separation equipment 60, three filtration vessels 64a, 64b, 64c and two suspension vessels 65a, 65b are alternately arranged, and four flat membranes 69a-69d are provided therebetween. The filtering containers 64a and 64c at both ends are configured to filter from one surface, and the intermediate filtering container 64b is configured to filter from both surfaces. The water collecting ports 72 provided on the upper portions of the respective filtration containers communicate with each other and are connected to the suction pump 62. 79 is a drain pipe of a filtration container.
[0035]
The suspension containers 65a and 65b have a hollow structure, and a cleaning tool 68 capable of directly cleaning the flat membranes 69 disposed on both surfaces in conjunction with the rotating shaft 67 is loosely inserted into each container. The roughly separated suspension 57 branches off, flows in from the lower part of each of the suspension vessels 65a and 65b, and discharges from the upper part. The discharged liquids are combined to form a discharged suspension 61.
[0036]
FIG. 4 shows a configuration example of the cleaning tool. In the cleaning tool 68 in the example of FIG. 3, the fine hairs 68b are arranged in layers on both sides of a frame 68a having an opening 68c in the center where the rotating shaft 67 is inserted. The fine bristles 68b have such a length that they contact at least both film surfaces when laminated and fixed. The opening 68c is slightly larger than the rotation shaft 67 to provide play. Thereby, the whole of the cleaning tool 68 rotates continuously in conjunction with the rotating shaft 67, and the fine hairs 68b can evenly contact the flat films 69 on both sides at any rotational position. This is called loose insertion, and is effective for uniform cleaning of both film surfaces and prevention of damage. If the cross-sectional shape of the rotating shaft 67 and the opening 68c is rectangular, the cleaning tool 68 is not fixed and interlocks with the rotating shaft 67.
[0037]
In the example of FIG. 3, three filtration vessels 64 and two suspension vessels 65 are used, but the present invention is not limited to this, and n filtration vessels and n−1 suspension vessels are used. It is also possible to form a set, and to stack these containers in the vertical direction.
[0038]
With such a configuration, all of the laminated membrane surfaces can always be uniformly washed, and the flow rate in the suspension vessel is increased by the distribution and flow of the coarsely separated suspension, thereby further enhancing the membrane surface cleaning effect. .
[0039]
FIG. 5 shows a configuration diagram for controlling the water quality measuring device. This example is a method of maintaining the filtration flux on the flat membrane 69 surface. The controller 54a indicates the number of rotations or the time of operation and stop of the coarse separation suspension supply pump 54, the controller 62a indicates the number of rotations or time of operation and stop of the suction pump 62, and the controller 66a indicates the number of rotations of the motor 66. It is a device that can instruct adjustment.
[0040]
A water level gauge 85 is installed in the separated liquid storage facility 80, and the measured value L is input to the control device 88. When the water level measurement value L of the storage facility 80 is equal to or less than the set value Lmin, the control device 88 determines that the sample amount is insufficient, and operates the controller 62a and the like in a direction to increase the filtration flux. If the measured water level L is equal to or greater than the set value Lmax, it is determined that the sample amount is excessive, and the controller 62a and the like are operated in a direction to reduce the filtration flux. The water level set value Lmin is set so as to have a volume equal to or larger than at least the amount used by the water quality measurement equipment 90 for one measurement.
[0041]
FIG. 6 shows a control flow of the control device. The control device 88 first determines whether the water level measurement value L of the water level gauge 85 is equal to or less than the set value Lmin in step S1. If it is equal to or less than Lmin, the flow proceeds to step S2 to increase the filtration flux, and if not, the flow proceeds to step S9.
[0042]
In step S2, it is determined whether the motor operation amount A of the motor 66 of the membrane separation equipment 60 is the maximum value Amax. If it is Amax, the process proceeds to step S3; otherwise, the process proceeds to S4, where the motor operation amount A is increased by a fixed amount (ΔA), and the processing ends. In step S3, it is determined whether the coarse separation suspension supply pump operation amount B of the coarse separation suspension supply pump 54 is the maximum value Bmax. In the case of Bmax, the process proceeds to step S5; otherwise, the process proceeds to S6, and the coarse separation suspension supply pump operation amount B is increased by a certain amount (ΔB), and the processing is ended. In step S5, it is determined whether the suction pump operation amount C of the suction pump 62 is the maximum value Cmax. If it is Cmax, the process proceeds to step S7; otherwise, the process proceeds to S8, where the suction pump operation amount C is increased by a certain amount (ΔC), and the processing ends. In step S7, an alarm is generated and the process ends.
[0043]
On the other hand, in step S9, it is determined whether or not the water level measurement value of the water level gauge 85 is equal to or more than the upper limit Lmax. In the above case, the process proceeds to step S10 to reduce the filtration flux, and otherwise, the process ends. In step S10, it is determined whether the suction pump operation amount C of the suction pump 62 is the minimum value Cmin. If it is Cmin, the process proceeds to step S11; otherwise, the process proceeds to S12, where the suction pump operation amount C is reduced by a certain amount (ΔC), and the processing ends. In step S11, it is determined whether the operation amount B of the roughly separated suspension supply pump of the pump 54 is the minimum value Bmin. In the case of Bmin, the process proceeds to step S13, otherwise to S14, the operation amount B of the coarse separation suspension supply pump is reduced by a fixed amount (ΔB), and the processing is ended. In step S13, it is determined whether the motor operation amount A of the motor 66 is the minimum value Amin. In the case of Amin, the process is terminated. Otherwise, the process proceeds to S15, in which the motor operation amount A is reduced by a fixed amount (ΔA), and the process is terminated. This control flow is performed at regular intervals.
[0044]
As the operation amount B of the coarse separation suspension supply pump, the flow rate of the coarse separation suspension into the suspension vessel and / or the operation / stop time is adjusted. Further, the suction amount and / or the operation / stop time are adjusted as the suction pump operation amount C.
[0045]
According to this, when the filtration flux decreases, the number of rotations of the cleaning tool 68 is first increased to eliminate the membrane surface clogging substance, and the filtration flux is increased. If the predetermined filtration flux cannot be obtained even when the rotation speed is increased to the maximum, then the filtration pressure is increased by increasing the flow rate of the roughly separated suspension into the suspension vessel 65, and the filtration flow is increased. Increase bunch. If the predetermined filtration flux cannot be obtained even when the flow rate is increased to the maximum, the filtration pressure is increased by increasing the pump suction amount, and the filtration flux is increased. If a predetermined filtration flux cannot be obtained even when the suction amount is increased to the maximum, an alarm is generated.
[0046]
Since these operations can be performed without impairing the solid-liquid separation operation, the filtration flux can be continuously maintained. In addition, when the filtration flux is obtained more than necessary, the predetermined filtration flux can be maintained by performing the operation reverse to the above operation as described above.
[0047]
【The invention's effect】
Since the water quality measuring device according to the present invention can continuously perform a solid-liquid separation operation even with a mixed solution containing suspended matter such as activated sludge, it can supply only a clear sample stably, and has high accuracy and high reliability. Can be provided.
