Although the earth is a blue planet, but most of the area is still seawater, seawater is not directly drinkable water equipment in the electronic industry, so stainless steel mechanical filters are still a large part of the people out of the water shortage situation, freshwater resources are also scarce resources, in the promotion of water saving, researchers also In the continuous development of seawater, desalination of seawater into fresh water, this paper first describes the five useful methods of seawater desalination.
Seawater desalination method 1: distillation method
Distillation is primarily used in large-scale desalination and heat-rich local areas. Reverse osmosis membrane method is widely used because of its wide application and high desalination rate. Reverse osmosis membrane method firstly extracts seawater and begins to treat it, reduces the turbidity of seawater desalination equipment, avoids the growth of microorganisms such as bacteria and algae, and then uses special high pressure pump to pressurize seawater into reverse osmosis membrane. Because of the high salinity of seawater, it is necessary for seawater reverse osmosis membrane to have a high desalination rate. With the characteristics of corrosion resistance, high pressure resistance and pollution resistance, the salt content of seawater treated by reverse osmosis membrane decreased greatly, and the TDS content decreased from 36,000 mg/l to about 200 mg/l. The water quality after desalination is even better than that of tap water, which can be used by industry, commerce, residents, ships and ships.
Seawater desalination method 2: chemical conditioning treatment
Adding H2SO4 to regulate the pH value of seawater to differentiate HCO-3 in seawater to avoid CaCO3 deposition is the most common and economical method in seawater desalination. The addition of (NaPO3) 6 (SHMP) is a useful method to avoid CaSO4 deposition, but the by-product phosphate produced by (NaPO3) 6 together with scale inhibition can promote the growth of microorganisms, bacteria and algae, and its application has certain limitations. The higher price of the special polymer scale inhibitor imported from western countries will directly affect the cost of desalination project. In this project, H2SO4 is chosen as scale inhibitor to control the pH value of feed water in reverse osmosis system between 6.8 and 7.0, and to control the water recovery rate of seawater desalination system together to avoid CaSO4 deposition and separation.
Seawater desalination method 3: security filtration
Safety filter uses 316L filter and 5m filter element to filter seawater before high-pressure pump. It can prevent impurities with diameter greater than 5m in seawater, ensure safe operation of high-pressure pump, energy recovery equipment and reverse osmosis membrane components for a long time.
High-pressure pump and energy recovery equipment are important equipment for energy conversion and energy saving in reverse osmosis desalination. According to the flow rate and pressure required for reverse osmosis desalination, we choose a single-stage centrifugal pump with 60 m3/h flow rate and 640 Psi lift. The energy recovery equipment is HTC-300 type, which has hydraulic turbine structure and can be used. The pressure of reverse osmosis discharging concentrated seawater increases the water pressure of reverse osmosis by 30% and reduces energy consumption effectively.
Seawater desalination method IV: coagulation filtration
Coagulation filtration aims at removing colloidal and suspended impurities in seawater and reducing turbidity. In RO membrane separation engineering, pollution index (FI) is commonly used to measure, and fi value of feed water entering RO equipment is required to be less than 4. Because of the large proportion of sea water, high pH value and seasonal variation of water temperature, FeCl3 is chosen as coagulant in the system, which has the advantages of not being affected by temperature, large and strong alum, and fast settling speed.
Seawater desalination method 5: reverse osmosis seawater desalination
Seawater has high salinity, high hardness, corrosiveness to equipment, and seasonal variation of water temperature makes the reverse osmosis desalination system much more disorderly than the conventional brackish water desalination system, and the project investment and energy consumption are much higher. Therefore, after careful process planning, reasonable equipment and equipment to reduce project investment and energy consumption, and then reduce the unit water cost, and ensure the stable operation of the system is particularly important.
