Description
TECHNICAL FIELD

The present invention relates to an exhaust oxygen recycling apparatus, and, more particularly, to an exhaust oxygen recycling apparatus for ozone treatment equipment, which is used to refine the exhaust oxygen discharged to the air after the reaction in the ozone treatment equipment used to disinfect, remove tastes, smells and colors, reduce organic compounds and perform oxidation of metals such as iron, manganese and the like and to recycle the refined oxygen to generate ozone. Further, the present invention relates to an ozone-using system including the exhaust oxygen recycling apparatus for ozone treatment equipment.


BACKGROUND ART

Ozone treatment equipment is used in many fields, such as water treatment, digestion tanks, bleaching, sterilization, disinfection, semiconductor equipment systems and the like, for the purpose of removing smells and colors, improving coagulation efficiency, reducing the production of organic chlorine compounds and improving cleanliness and the like.


Meanwhile, organic sludge, such as sewage sludge, excretion sludge or the like, increases every year. However, sludge treatment facilities for incineration or burying sludge are not installed due to local NIMBY phenomena or the like. Further, since discarding sludge into the sea is internationally prohibited, there is no method of suitably disposing of sludge.


Currently, as a method for reducing sludge, anaerobic sludge treatment is generally used. That is, in large-scale sewage disposal plants, sludge is reduced using an anaerobic digestion tank.



FIG. 1 is a schematic view showing an apparatus for reducing sludge using a general anaerobic digestion tank. As shown in FIG. 1, when wastewater is introduced into a primary sedimentation reservoir 110, sludge included in the wastewater settles under gravity and concentrates to form a primary sludge. Meanwhile, a part of the wastewater introduced into the primary sedimentation reservoir 110 is introduced into a secondary sedimentation reservoir 120 via a bioreactor 115 and concentrated to form a secondary sludge.


The primary sludge is introduced into an anaerobic digestion tank 170 through a movement line 135 via a concentration tank 130, and the secondary sludge is introduced into the anaerobic digestion tank 170 through a movement line 145 via a centrifugal concentrator 140 and is then mixed with the primary sludge.


The anaerobic digestion tank 170 is provided with a circulation line 160, one end of which is connected to the lower side of the anaerobic digestion tank 170 and the other end of which is connected to the upper side of the anaerobic digestion tank 170, and the mixed sludge in the anaerobic digestion tank 170 is circulated through the circulation line 160. A steam line 155 is connected to the upper side of the anaerobic digestion tank 170 such that high-temperature steam generated from a boiler 150 is supplied into the anaerobic digestion tank 170 through the steam line 155.


However, the apparatus for reducing sludge is problematic in that it cannot sufficiently reduce sludge because the mixed sludge including the primary and secondary sludge is digested in the anaerobic digestion tank 170 only by an anaerobic digestion process.


Therefore, conventionally, in order to increase the efficiency of reduction of sludge, various methods for easily decomposing sludge in an anaerobic tank by solubilizing organic matter included in the anaerobic tank, such as ultrasonic treatment, ozone treatment, heat treatment and the like, have been used.



FIG. 2 is a process view showing a general digestion system having a solubilization unit (using ozone), and FIG. 3 is a schematic view showing ozone treatment equipment used in the digestion system.


As shown in FIG. 2, the digestion system is provided with a solubilization unit 220 for solubilizing the sludge discharged from an anaerobic digestion tank 210, in which a process of digesting sludge is conducted, using ozone (O3) or the like and then circulating the solubilized sludge into the anaerobic digestion tank 210, thus increasing the efficiency of reduction of sludge. Here, ozone (O3) is produced by oxidizing a predetermined amount of oxygen (O2) having a purity of about 99.9%, which is commercially available from oxygen manufacturing companies, using an ozone generator, and is then supplied to the solubilization unit 220. Further, as shown in FIG. 3, ozone (O3) is produced by an ozone generator 320 provided at one side of the digestion system, and is then supplied to the solubilization unit 220.


In a general ozone generator, when oxygen having a high purity of 90˜95% or more is supplied, ozone is produced in several steps. In this case, the amount of ozone that is produced is about 10% with respect to the amount of the supplied oxygen. Therefore, ozone discharged from the ozone generator includes oxygen having a purity of 80˜85% or more, so that ozone and oxygen are supplied together to the solubilization unit 220. Meanwhile, ozone supplied to the solubilization unit 220 solubilizes the sludge discharged from the anaerobic digestion tank 210, and is then discharged to the air via an ozone discharge unit. In this case, the exhaust gas discharged to the air includes oxygen (O2) having a purity of 80˜85% or more as well as CO2, CH4, H2S and the like. That is, conventionally, oxygen (O2) having a purity of 80˜85% or more is directly discharged to the air.


Meanwhile, even in the fields of water treatment, bleaching, sterilization, disinfection, semiconductor equipment systems and the like, after the sterilization by ozone, oxygen (O2) having a purity of 80˜85% or more is refined and then discharged to the air together with impurities (impurity gases).


However, the price of the oxygen (O2) having a purity of about 99.9%, which is commercially available from oxygen manufacturing companies, is about KRW170˜KRW200 (about US$0.17˜US$0.20) per 1 Kg, and, as shown in FIG. 3, even when oxygen is produced by 90˜95% using an oxygen generator 310 of ozone treatment equipment, production costs including a mechanical maintenance cost increase. Meanwhile, in the case where oxygen is produced using the oxygen generator 310 of FIG. 3, air is compressed to 8 bar, the compressed air is processed in several steps to obtain oxygen having a purity of 90˜95%, and then the obtained oxygen is supplied to the ozone generator 320 while being compressed to 2.5˜3 bar.


As described above, conventionally, oxygen purchased or produced at high cost has been mostly discharged to the air, that is, resources have not been sufficiently recycled.

BEST MODE

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



FIG. 4 is a block diagram showing an exhaust oxygen recycling apparatus for ozone treatment equipment according to an embodiment of the present invention. Ozone treatment equipment is used in many fields, such as water treatment, digestion tanks, bleaching, sterilization, disinfection, semiconductor equipment systems and the like, for the purpose of removal of smells and colors, improvement of coagulation efficiency, reduction of the production of organic chlorine compounds, improvement of cleanliness and the like. As shown in FIG. 4, the exhaust oxygen recycling apparatus 400 for ozone treatment equipment according to this embodiment, which is used to refine an exhaust oxygenic gas, the exhaust oxygenic gas being discharged to the air after reaction in the ozone treatment equipment, and to recycle a refined oxygenic gas to generate ozone, includes: a compressor 420 for compressing exhaust gas to a pressure at which the exhaust gas can be supplied to an ozone generator; and an impurity removing unit for removing water and impurities (including impurity gases) from the exhaust gas.


Here, the components included in the exhaust gas change depending on the application field (for example, a water treatment system, a digestion system or the like) in which the ozone treatment equipment is used. For example, when ozone treatment equipment is applied to a digestion system, the exhaust gas includes O2, O2, N2, CO2, CH4, H2S and the like.


The impurity removing unit serves to remove water, N2, CO2, CH4, H2S and the like excluding O3 and O2 which are not apt to be recognized as impurities in an ozone generator. In the impurity removing unit, H2S is removed by injecting water, water is removed by adsorbing it using active alumina, zeolite or the like, N2 is removed by adsorbing it using zeolite or the like, and CO2 and CH4 are removed by adsorbing them using active carbon or the like.


Therefore, the impurity removing unit includes: a H2S removing unit 410 for removing H2S from exhaust gas by injecting water; a water removing unit 430 for removing water from exhaust gas by adsorbing water using active alumina and zeolite; a CO2 and CH4 removing unit 440 for removing CO2 and CH4 from exhaust gas by adsorbing CO2 and CH4 using active carbon; and an N2 removing unit 450 for removing N2 from exhaust gas by adsorbing N2 using zeolite.


The exhaust oxygen recycling apparatus 400 for ozone treatment equipment according to this embodiment, the constituents of which carry out the above-mentioned functions, respectively, is configured such that an H2S removing unit 410, the compressor 420, the water removing unit 430, the CO2 and CH4 removing unit 440 and the N2 removing unit 450 are sequentially provided from upstream to downstream. Meanwhile, the water removing unit 430, the CO2 and CH4 removing unit 440 and the N2 removing unit 450 may be provided in one column to conduct their respective functions. Here, the reason why the compressor 420 is provided upstream of the CO2 and CH4 removing unit 440 and the N2 removing unit 450 is because CO2, CH4 and N2 can be removed more efficiently when they are compressed.


Meanwhile, when ozone treatment equipment is applied to a water treatment system, exhaust gas may include N2, CO2, CH4, chloride components and the like which are apt to be recognized as impurities in an ozone generator as well as O3 and O2 which are not apt to be recognized as impurities. Therefore, the impurity removing unit may be configured such that N2, CO2, CH4, chloride components and the like can be removed. That is, the impurity removing unit according to this embodiment may be configured such that all of the impurities included in the exhaust gas can be removed in accordance with the application field of ozone treatment equipment.


The water removing unit 430 serves to remove the water injected to remove H2S or the water self-included in the exhaust gas in accordance with the application field of ozone treatment equipment, and the compressor 420 is used to compress the exhaust gas to a pressure at which the exhaust gas can be supplied to an ozone generator. A general ozone generator generates ozone using oxygen compressed to a pressure of 2.5˜3 bar. The compressor 420 of this embodiment may compress the exhaust gas to a pressure of 3.5˜4 bar in consideration of the pressure loss in the removing units 430, 440 and 450 upstream of the ozone generator such that the refined exhaust gas is supplied to the ozone generator while being compressed to a pressure of 2.5˜3 bar. However, the compressor 420 may also compress the exhaust gas to a pressure of less than 2.5 bar or more than 3 bar in accordance with the specifications of the ozone generator.



FIG. 5 is a detail view showing an exhaust oxygen recycling apparatus for ozone treatment equipment according to an embodiment of the present invention, and FIG. 6 is a block diagram showing a process of removing impurities in the exhaust oxygen recycling apparatus for ozone treatment equipment shown in FIG. 5. As shown in FIG. 5, the exhaust oxygen recycling apparatus 500 for ozone treatment equipment according to this embodiment includes: an exhaust gas supply tank 510 for compressing exhaust gas (including O3, O2, N2, CO2, CH4 and water), which is discharged after the reaction in ozone treatment equipment to a pressure at which the exhaust gas can be supplied to an ozone generator, and then storing the compressed exhaust gas; a plurality of impurity removing units 520 for removing water and impurities (including impurity gases) from the compressed exhaust gas supplied from the exhaust gas supply tank 510; a refined exhaust gas storage tank 530 for storing O3 and O2 remaining in the exhaust gas from which water and impurities were removed by the plurality of impurity removing units 520; and a control unit (not shown) for controlling the constituents.


Each of the impurity removing units 520 according to this embodiment includes a column-shaped adsorption tower 521 and a plurality of control valves. The adsorption tower 521 is filled with adsorbents for adsorbing and removing CO2, CH4 N2 and the like. For example, alumina and zeolite 4A for adsorbing and removing water, active carbon for adsorbing and removing CO2 and CH4, and zeolite 13X for adsorbing and removing N2 may be sequentially charged in the adsorption tower 521 from the bottom thereof to the top thereof. Here, the amount of each of the adsorbents charged in the adsorption tower 521 may be determined depending on the components of the exhaust gas discharged after the reaction that takes place in the ozone treatment equipment. Further, the kinds of the adsorbents charged in the adsorption tower 521 may also be determined depending on the components of the exhaust gas discharged after the reaction in the ozone treatment equipment. That is, the kinds and amounts of the adsorbents charged in the adsorption tower 521 may be varied depending on the ozone-using system provided with the ozone treatment equipment.


When impurities are adsorbed and removed using the exhaust oxygen recycling apparatus 500, as shown in FIG. 6, the exhaust oxygen recycling apparatus 500 may be configured such that twelve processes are carried out in each adsorption tower 521. That is, the method of removing impurities in each adsorption tower 521 largely includes three steps. Specifically, in the first step, four adsorbing processes are performed, in the second step, a pressure equalizing process, a pressure reducing process and two low-pressure washing processes are performed, and in the third step, a pressure equalizing process and three compressing processes are performed. In addition, each of the adsorption towers may be configured such that impurities are adsorbed and removed by simultaneously performing different steps.
