Definitions

  • the invention relates to a membrane filter for water treatment, comprising
  • a head piece consisting of a permeate collecting chamber with a permeate outlet
  • a gasification device with a mouth piece that has at least one outlet for air and extends essentially parallel to the capillary membranes, within the fiber bundle,
  • capillary membranes of the fiber bundle that are surrounded by the untreated water to be treated are attached, in a dense packing, to a connecting surface of the head piece, and clarified liquid can be withdrawn in the capillary membranes, to the permeate collecting chamber.
  • the capillary membranes possess a diameter of less than 5 mm and preferably have the permeability of microfiltration membranes or ultrafiltration membranes.
  • Capillary membranes in a diameter range between 0.5 and 3 mm are preferred.
  • the driving force for the membrane filtration is a pressure difference that can be implemented on the untreated water side by means of an excess pressure and/or on the permeate side by means of a pressure reduction.
  • a pressure reduction on the permeate side is a particular possibility if the membrane filter is supposed to be used in immersion operation and is suspended in a basin that contains the untreated water, e.g. the activated sludge basin of a sewage treatment plant.
  • a membrane filter having the characteristics described initially is known from WO 98/28066.
  • the capillary membranes of the membrane filter that can be used in immersion operation are clamped between two head pieces at their ends.
  • a gasification device is connected at the one head piece, which is the lower one in operation.
  • the other, upper end contains the permeate collecting chamber. It forms a displacement body, which has the effect of displacing the rising air bubbles towards the outside of the membrane fiber bundle. Effective gasification is no longer guaranteed in the upper region of the fiber bundle.
  • no membrane movements are possible either, or only slight membrane movements are possible.
  • the formation of membrane cover layers and of gross dirt deposits occurs in the upper region of the fiber bundle.
  • the fiber bundle of capillary membranes is set into a pressure-resistant mantle pipe, through which the flow passes in the lengthwise direction of the capillary membranes.
  • the capillary membranes are poured into an in-flow base at their ends, which base has a plurality of bores uniformly distributed over its cross-section, to allow the untreated water to flow through.
  • a uniform flow through the membrane filter chamber, at a defined flow velocity is required.
  • the untreated water can be gasified with air before it enters into the membrane filter chamber. Sufficient air distribution within the fiber bundle is not guaranteed. The air is essentially guided along the outside of the membrane bundle, with the untreated water flow, and does not make any effective contribution to the membrane purification effect.
  • the invention is based on the task of indicating a membrane filter for water treatment in which effective gasification over the entire length of the fiber bundle is guaranteed, and an effective transport to remove membrane deposits that come loose from the membrane surfaces is assured.
  • the head piece contains an air duct to which the mouth piece that protrudes into the fiber bundle is connected, and that the fiber bundle terminates, at its other end, without being clamped in place, in freely movable manner in the untreated water.
  • the air that exits from the mouth piece flows through the fiber bundle from the inside to the outside, and partially flows away in the lengthwise direction of the capillary membranes.
  • the air feed is preferably supplied intermittently, with the goal of cleaning off cover layers that have formed on the membrane surface during membrane filtration.
  • the air introduction into the fiber bundle allows surprisingly effective cleaning, independent of the flow velocity of the untreated water.
  • the membrane filter according to the invention can also be used in immersion operation.
  • the mouth piece possesses a pipe-shaped section, for example, with bores on the circumference, or is structured as a ring gap nozzle, from which the air exits radially or at least with a radial movement component.
  • the air can be introduced into the fiber bundle in targeted manner by means of sizing the length of the mouth piece and by the arrangement of the exit bores or exit nozzles. It also proves to be advantageous if the mouth piece has a kick-back valve that closes if the pressure of the air feed drops.
  • the fiber bundle is attached to a connecting surface of the head piece, in a dense packing; in case of immersion operation of the membrane filter, this connecting surface is not penetrated by flow channels for the untreated water.
  • the capillary membranes which are sealed at their free ends, move in the untreated water to be filtered, since they are only clamped in place at one end.
  • a basket can be set onto the head piece.
  • the basket can be made of rods or, for example, can consist of a pipe that has been provided with openings on its circumference.
  • the head piece can furthermore have connecting devices for attachment to a frame, which can be lowered into a basin that contains the untreated water.
  • the head piece in block shape, whereby the permeate run-off takes place at a narrow side surface or at the bottom.
  • Several of these units can be arranged next to one another, in the form of a filter package, whereby it is practical if the permeate outlets are connected with one another by means of a collecting line.
  • the membrane filter is used in immersion operation, no devices are required for making the untreated water flow against the capillary membranes. It also lies within the scope of the invention to structure the membrane filter with a filter chamber through which liquid flows. It is practical if the flow through the filter chamber takes place in the lengthwise direction of the capillary membranes, whereby the untreated water enters into the filter chamber through bores in the head piece that are arranged concentrically around the gasification device, according to the invention.
  • the capillary membranes are poured into the head piece on a ring-shaped connecting surface between the gasification device and the bores that carry the liquid.
  • the connecting surface of the head piece, into which the capillary membranes that form the fiber bundle are poured at their one end is star-shaped, whereby the connecting surface fills up the ring-shaped area between the gasification device and the concentrically arranged bores, and extends into the regions between the channels for liquid.
  • a fiber bundle is provided that contains the capillary membranes in a very dense packing, whereby the untreated water is guided past the fiber bundle on the outside, and air is introduced within the fiber bundle.
  • the fiber bundle is arranged vertically in the untreated water in all the embodiments, whereby the capillary membranes are fixed in place on the head piece at their lower ends, and their upper end can move in the stream of liquid.
  • the air bubbles rise to the top essentially within the fiber bundle, and they are not entrained, or only entrained to a slight extent, by the liquid that flows past the fiber bundle on the outside.
  • the head piece is releasably connected with a pipe-shaped mantle, which forms the filter chamber.
  • the head piece can be connected with the pipe-shaped mantle of another, identically structured membrane filter, at the face that faces away from the fiber bundle, and that the permeate outlet is arranged on the circumference of the head piece.
  • several membrane filters can be switched in series, one behind the other, as modular units. In this way, the filter area can be variably adapted to an application case.
  • the permeate outlets on the circumference of the head pieces can be connected with one another by means of a collecting pipe.
  • the head piece has separate distributor chambers for water and air, into which bores for water or air ducts, respectively, empty. Chambers that each contain a fiber bundle of capillary membranes and through which the untreated water flows in the lengthwise direction of the capillary membranes are connected with the head piece.

  • the capillary membranes 5 of the fiber bundle 4 are attached, in a dense packing, to a connecting surface 7 of the head piece, which surface is not penetrated by flow channels for the untreated water.

  • the mouth piece 10 has a pipe-shaped section with bores 11 on the circumference, but can also be structured as a ring gap nozzle, for example, from which the air exits with a radial alignment.
  • the capillary membranes 5 poured into the head piece 1 at one end are freely movable at their other, sealed end, and perform more or less marked lateral movements under the effect of the turbulence that prevails in the untreated water and/or the flows that occur in the untreated water.
