Description

この発明は、原水中に含まれる非溶解物などの不純物を濾材によって除去する濾過システムに関する。   The present invention relates to a filtration system that removes impurities such as non-dissolved substances contained in raw water with a filter medium.

原水ラインと処理水ラインとの間に接続され、原水中に含まれる不純物を濾材によって除去する複数台の濾過手段と、前記各濾過手段への通水を切り換えて濾過処理を行う制御手段とを備える濾過システムは、特許文献1にて知られている。特許文献1の濾過システムは、各濾過手段が目詰まりを生ずると、他の濾過手段に通水を切り換えるように構成している。   A plurality of filtration means connected between the raw water line and the treated water line to remove impurities contained in the raw water by a filter medium; and a control means for switching the water flow to each of the filtration means to perform the filtration treatment. The filtration system provided is known from Patent Document 1. The filtration system of Patent Document 1 is configured to switch water flow to another filtration means when each filtration means is clogged.

しかしながら、この濾過システムにおいては、目詰まり,すなわち濾材で不純物を捕捉できる量を超えたことによる性能低下(再生をすることである程度回復する)により、通水を切り換えるものであって、通水や再生の繰り返しによる、濾材の劣化に起因する性能低下(再生しても回復しない性能低下)により、通水の切り換えを行っていない。その結果、濾材の劣化度を考慮して濾過性能を最大化した濾過処理ができていなかった。   However, in this filtration system, the water flow is switched due to clogging, that is, the performance drop due to exceeding the amount capable of trapping impurities by the filter medium (recovered to some extent by regeneration). The water flow is not switched due to the performance degradation due to the deterioration of the filter media due to repeated regeneration (performance degradation that does not recover even after regeneration). As a result, the filtration treatment that maximizes the filtration performance in consideration of the degree of deterioration of the filter medium has not been achieved.

この発明が解決しようとする課題は、濾材の劣化度を考慮して濾過システムの濾過性能を最大化することである。   The problem to be solved by the present invention is to maximize the filtration performance of the filtration system in consideration of the degree of deterioration of the filter medium.

この発明は、前記課題を解決するためになされたもので、請求項1に記載の発明は、原水中に含まれる不純物を濾材によって除去して処理水を得る複数台の濾過手段と、前記各濾過手段への通水を選択して濾過処理を行う制御手段とを備える濾過システムであって、前記各濾過手段の再生を行う再生手段と、前記各濾過手段について、再生しても回復しない性能低下の原因となる濾材の劣化度を判定するためのデータを検出する検出手段を備え、前記制御手段は、ある濾過手段の再生工程を行うとともに、他の濾過手段にて通水工程を行うように通水を切り換え、ある濾過手段の再生工程終了後の通水工程初期における所定通水時間に対する前記検出データに基づき判定された当該濾過手段の濾材の劣化度と他の濾過手段の濾材の劣化度とを比較し、ある濾過手段の濾材の劣化度が他の濾過手段の濾材の劣化度より大きいとき、他の濾過手段のうち最も濾材の劣化度の小さい濾過手段へ通水を切り換えるとともに、ある濾過手段の濾材の劣化度が他の濾過手段の濾材の劣化度より小さいとき、当該濾過手段の通水を継続することを特徴としている。 This invention was made in order to solve the said subject, The invention of Claim 1 remove | eliminates the impurity contained in raw | natural water with a filter medium, The several filtration means which obtains treated water , Each said each A filtration system comprising a control means for selecting a water flow to the filtration means and performing a filtration process, the regeneration means for regenerating each filtration means , and the performance of each of the filtration means that does not recover even if regenerated A detecting means for detecting data for determining the degree of deterioration of the filter medium that causes a decrease is provided, and the control means performs a regeneration process of a certain filtering means and performs a water passing process by another filtering means. The degree of deterioration of the filter medium of the filtering means and the deterioration of the filter medium of other filtering means determined based on the detection data for the predetermined passing time at the beginning of the water passing process after the completion of the regeneration process of a certain filtering means Degree In comparison, when the degree of deterioration of the filter medium of a certain filtering means is greater than the degree of deterioration of the filter medium of another filtering means, the water flow is switched to the filtering means having the smallest degree of deterioration of the filtering medium among other filtering means, and certain filtering means When the degree of deterioration of the filter medium is smaller than the degree of deterioration of the filter medium of the other filter means, water passing through the filter means is continued .

請求項1に記載の発明によれば、濾材の劣化度が小さい濾過手段を優先的に使用して濾過処理を行うので、濾材の劣化度を考慮して濾過システム全体としての濾過性能を最大化できるという効果を奏する。また、前記濾過手段の再生工程後の通水工程時に、濾材の劣化度を比較して、濾材の劣化度の小さい濾過手段を優先して使用するようにしているので、単に再生工程終了の濾過手段を優先して使用するものと比較して、濾過システム全体の濾過性能をより高いものとすることができるという効果を奏する。更に、前記濾過手段の再生工程終了後の通水工程初期における所定通水時間に対する検出データに基づき濾材の劣化度を判定するようにしているので、濾材での捕捉量を超えたことによる性能低下と、濾材の劣化による性能低下とを容易に区別でき、比較的正確に濾材の劣化度を判定でき、濾材の劣化度の小さい濾過手段への切り換えを確実に行うことができるという効果を奏する。 According to the first aspect of the present invention, the filtration means is preferentially used with the filtering means having a small degree of deterioration of the filter medium, so that the filtration performance of the entire filtration system is maximized in consideration of the degree of deterioration of the filter medium. There is an effect that can be done.

Further, since the degree of deterioration of the filter medium is determined based on the detection data for the predetermined water passage time in the initial stage of the water flow process after the regeneration process of the filtering means, the performance deterioration due to exceeding the trapped amount in the filter medium And the performance degradation due to the deterioration of the filter medium can be easily distinguished, the degree of deterioration of the filter medium can be determined relatively accurately, and switching to a filtering means with a small degree of deterioration of the filter medium can be performed reliably.

つぎに、この発明の濾過システムの実施の形態について説明する。この発明の実施の形態は、原水中に含まれる不純物を濾材によって除去する複数台の濾過手段を備える濾過システムに好適に実施される。   Next, an embodiment of the filtration system of the present invention will be described. The embodiment of the present invention is suitably implemented in a filtration system including a plurality of filtration means for removing impurities contained in raw water with a filter medium.

この実施の形態を具体的に説明する。この実施の形態は、原水ラインと処理水ラインとの間に接続され、原水中に含まれる不純物を濾材によって除去する複数の濾過手段を備えている。そして、前記各濾過手段へ通水を選択して濾過処理を行う制御手段と、前記各濾過手段の濾材の劣化度を判定するためのデータを検出する検出手段とを備えている。前記制御手段は、前記各濾過手段の濾材の劣化度を判定する劣化度判定機能と、前記劣化度判定機能による前記各濾過手段の濾材の劣化度を比較する比較機能と、濾材の劣化度が小さい方の濾過手段への通水を選択する選択機能とを有する。ここで、「判定する」は、「検出する」と言い換えることができる。   This embodiment will be specifically described. This embodiment is provided between the raw water line and the treated water line, and includes a plurality of filtering means for removing impurities contained in the raw water with a filter medium. And it has the control means which selects water flow to each said filtration means, and performs the filtration process, The detection means which detects the data for determining the deterioration degree of the filter medium of each said filtration means. The control means includes a deterioration degree determination function for determining the deterioration degree of the filter medium of each filtration means, a comparison function for comparing the deterioration degree of the filter medium of each filtration means by the deterioration degree determination function, and the deterioration degree of the filter medium. And a selection function for selecting water flow to the smaller filtering means. Here, “determining” can be restated as “detecting”.

この発明の実施の形態においては、前記制御手段は、前記検出手段により所定時期に得られたデータに基づき、前記各濾過手段の濾材の劣化度を判定し、前記濾過手段の間で判定した濾材の劣化度を比較して、濾材の劣化度が小さい方の濾過手段への通水を選択する。こうして、濾材の劣化度が小さい方の前記濾過手段を優先的に使用するので、濾材の劣化度を比較することなく、通水を選択するシステムと比較して、濾過システム全体の濾過性能が最大化される。   In an embodiment of the present invention, the control means determines the degree of deterioration of the filter medium of each filter means based on the data obtained at a predetermined time by the detection means, and the filter medium determined between the filter means The degree of deterioration of the filter medium is compared, and water passing through the filtering means having the smaller degree of deterioration of the filter medium is selected. In this way, since the filtering means with the smaller degree of deterioration of the filter medium is preferentially used, the filtration performance of the entire filtration system is maximized as compared with the system that selects water flow without comparing the degree of deterioration of the filter medium. It becomes.

前記所定時期とは、濾材の劣化度を判定するに適した時期であって、通水工程と再生工程とを選択して行う濾過手段においては、好ましくは、前記各濾過手段の再生工程終了後の通水工程初期であり、さらに好ましくは、前記通水工程開始後処理水水質が安定した時点から所定時間である。通水工程が進行し、再生工程が近くなればなるほど、濾材での捕捉量を超えたことによる性能低下が濾材の劣化による性能低下に対して大きくなり、濾材の劣化による性能低下の判別が困難となる。前記のように好ましい時期に得られたデータに基づき劣化度を判定すれば、濾材での捕捉量を超えたことによる性能低下と、濾材の劣化による性能低下を容易に区別して判定することができる。   The predetermined time is a time suitable for determining the degree of deterioration of the filter medium. In the filtering means that selectively performs the water flow process and the regeneration process, preferably, after the regeneration process of each filtering means is completed. This is an early stage of the water flow process, and more preferably, a predetermined time from the time when the quality of the treated water is stabilized after the start of the water flow process. As the water flow process progresses and the regeneration process becomes closer, the performance degradation due to exceeding the trapped amount in the filter media becomes larger than the performance degradation due to filter media degradation, and it is difficult to discern the performance degradation due to filter media degradation. It becomes. If the degree of deterioration is determined based on the data obtained at a preferable time as described above, it is possible to easily distinguish and determine the performance deterioration due to exceeding the trapped amount in the filter medium and the performance deterioration due to filter medium deterioration. .

ここで、この発明の実施の形態の濾過システムを構成する構成要素を説明する。前記各濾過手段は、原水ラインと処理水ラインとの間に接続され、原水中に含まれる不純物を濾材によって除去する機能を有する。この濾過手段は、好ましくは、非溶解物などの不純物として原水中に含まれる鉄分を主として除去する除鉄手段であり、前記濾過システムは、除鉄システムとして構成される。この濾過手段は、好ましくは、アンスラサイト,濾過砂などの濾材(図示省略)によって濾過を行う塔式の濾過部とこの濾過部に対して通水と再生とで流れを切り換えるコントロールバルブとを含んで構成される。そして、この濾過手段は、前記濾材にマンガンゼオライトなどを使用することで、除マンガン能力を備えていてもよい。   Here, the component which comprises the filtration system of embodiment of this invention is demonstrated. Each said filtration means is connected between a raw | natural water line and a treated water line, and has a function which removes the impurity contained in raw | natural water with a filter medium. This filtration means is preferably iron removal means for mainly removing iron contained in raw water as impurities such as non-dissolved substances, and the filtration system is configured as an iron removal system. The filtration means preferably includes a tower-type filtration section that performs filtration using a filter medium (not shown) such as anthracite and filtration sand, and a control valve that switches the flow of the filtration section between water flow and regeneration. Consists of. And this filtration means may be equipped with the manganese removal capability by using manganese zeolite etc. for the said filter medium.

前記濾過手段は、前記濾材を逆浸透膜(RO膜)等の濾過膜を用いたものとすることができる。この場合、前記制御手段は、濾過膜の劣化度を判定する。   The filtration means may use a filtration membrane such as a reverse osmosis membrane (RO membrane) as the filter medium. In this case, the control means determines the degree of deterioration of the filtration membrane.

前記2以上の複数台の濾過手段は、好ましくは、互いに並列に接続されるが、直列に接続してもよい。直列に接続する場合は、複数の濾過手段の通水が任意に選択できるように流路を形成するとともに、流れを制御する弁を設ける。また、前記濾過手段は、互いに単位時間当たりの処理容量を同じものとするが、互いに異ならせてもよい。   The two or more plural filtering means are preferably connected in parallel to each other, but may be connected in series. When connecting in series, a flow path is formed so that water flow of a plurality of filtering means can be arbitrarily selected, and a valve for controlling the flow is provided. In addition, the filtering means have the same processing capacity per unit time, but may be different from each other.

この濾過システムにおいては、好ましくは、前記各濾過手段を再生する再生手段を備え、前記制御手段により、前記各濾過手段に原水を通水して濾過処理する通水工程と、前記各濾過手段の再生を行う再生工程とを行うように構成する。この構成においては、前記各濾過手段において、通水工程と再生工程とを同時に行うのではなく、切り換えて行うように構成される。この再生工程は、前記各濾過手段の性能が再生を必要とする値に低下したとき、または低下したと考えられるときに実行される。前記各濾過手段の性能が再生を必要とする状態を一般的には破過と称する。   In this filtration system, preferably, a regenerating unit that regenerates each of the filtering units is provided, and a water passing step of filtering raw water through each of the filtering units by the control unit; And a reproduction step of performing reproduction. In this configuration, each of the filtering means is configured to switch between the water flow process and the regeneration process instead of simultaneously. This regeneration step is executed when the performance of each of the filtering means has decreased to a value that requires regeneration or when it is considered to have decreased. A state where the performance of each filtering means requires regeneration is generally referred to as breakthrough.

前記各濾過手段の性能が再生を必要とする値への低下は、水質検出手段によって濁度を検出し、前記制御手段により判定することができる。前記濾過手段が、除鉄を行うものである場合は、前記水質検出手段により、鉄濃度を検出するように構成することができる。また、前記「低下したと考えられるとき」は、前記各濾過手段の入口圧力と出口側圧力との差(差圧)により判定できる。また、前記「低下したと考えられるとき」は、予め実験により求めた設定通水時間を前記制御手段に内臓タイマ、または別のタイマにより計時することによっても判定することができる。   The decrease in the performance of each filtering means to a value that requires regeneration can be determined by the control means by detecting the turbidity by the water quality detecting means. When the filtering means is for removing iron, the water concentration detecting means can be configured to detect the iron concentration. Further, the “when it is considered that the pressure has decreased” can be determined by the difference (differential pressure) between the inlet pressure and the outlet pressure of each filtering means. In addition, the “when it is considered to have decreased” can also be determined by measuring a preset water passage time obtained in advance by an experiment using the built-in timer or another timer.

前記再生手段としては、前記各濾過手段の濾材を逆洗することによる周知の逆洗手段とすることができる。この逆洗は、処理水により行うが、原水を用いて行うことができる。   The regeneration means may be a well-known backwashing means by backwashing the filter medium of each filtering means. This backwashing is performed using treated water, but can be performed using raw water.

前記制御手段は、前記検出手段により得られたデータに基づき前記各濾過手段の濾材の劣化度を判定する劣化度判定機能(劣化度判定手段と称することができる。)と、前記劣化度判定手段により判定された前記濾過手段の濾材の劣化度同士を比較する比較機能(比較手段と称することができる。)と、濾材の劣化度が小さい方の濾過手段への通水を選択する選択機能(選択手段と称することができる。)とを有するものであれば、特定の構成のものに限定されない。これらの各機能(手段)は、前記制御手段に記憶した制御手順(プログラム)の一部により構成できる。   The control means includes a deterioration degree determination function (which can be referred to as a deterioration degree determination means) for determining the deterioration degree of the filter medium of each filtering means based on the data obtained by the detection means, and the deterioration degree determination means. A comparison function (which can be referred to as a comparison means) for comparing the degree of deterioration of the filtering medium of the filtering means determined by the above and a selection function for selecting water flow to the filtering means having a smaller degree of deterioration of the filtering medium ( As long as it can be referred to as selection means). Each of these functions (means) can be constituted by a part of a control procedure (program) stored in the control means.

前記劣化度判定手段は、好ましくは、前記各濾過手段の濾材の劣化度を判定する(評価する)ためのデータを検出する検出手段により検出されるデータに基づき前記各濾過手段の濾材の劣化度を判定するように構成する。   Preferably, the deterioration degree determination means is based on the data detected by the detection means for detecting data for determining (evaluating) the deterioration degree of the filter medium of each of the filtration means. Is configured to determine.

前記検出手段は、好ましくは、つぎの第一〜第四検出手段のいずれかとする。前記第一検出手段は、前記各濾過手段により濾過された処理水の水質を前記データとして検出する。この第一検出手段としては、濁度センサとすることができる。そして、前記制御手段は、処理水水質を濁度とすると、所定通水時間に対する濁度により濾材の劣化度を判定する。この場合、濁度が大きいほど濾材の劣化度が大きいと判定する。   The detection means is preferably one of the following first to fourth detection means. The first detecting means detects the quality of the treated water filtered by the filtering means as the data. This first detection means can be a turbidity sensor. When the treated water quality is turbidity, the control means determines the degree of deterioration of the filter medium based on turbidity with respect to a predetermined water passage time. In this case, it is determined that the degree of deterioration of the filter medium is larger as the turbidity is larger.

前記第二検出手段は、被処理水の水質および処理水の水質を前記データとして検出する。この第二検出手段としては、濁度センサとすることができる。そして、前記制御手段は、被処理水質および処理水水質を濁度とすると、所定通水時間に対する被処理水の濁度と処理水濁度との差、またはこれに基づく除去率(前記濁度の差を被処理水の濁度で除した値)を演算して、濾材の劣化度を判定する。この場合、前記濁度の差または除去率が小さいほど濾材の劣化度が大きいと判定する。 The second detection means detects the quality of treated water and the quality of treated water as the data. The second detection means can be a turbidity sensor. When the treated water quality and the treated water quality are turbidity, the control means determines the difference between the turbidity of the treated water and the treated water turbidity with respect to a predetermined water passage time, or the removal rate based on the turbidity (the turbidity). A value obtained by dividing the degree of difference by the turbidity of the water to be treated is calculated to determine the degree of deterioration of the filter medium. In this case, it is determined that the degree of deterioration of the filter medium is larger as the difference in turbidity or the removal rate is smaller.

前記第一検出手段および前記第二検出手段は、前記濾過手段が、除鉄を行うものである場合、鉄濃度センサとすることができる。   The first detection unit and the second detection unit may be an iron concentration sensor when the filtering unit performs iron removal.

前記第三検出手段は、前記各濾過手段の入口側(流入側)圧力と出口側(流出側)圧力との差圧を前記データとして検出する。この第三検出手段としては、差圧センサとすることができる。そして、前記制御手段は、所定通水時間に対する前記差圧により濾材の劣化度を判定する。この場合、前記差圧が大きいほど濾材の劣化度が大きいと判定する。   The third detection means detects the differential pressure between the inlet side (inflow side) pressure and the outlet side (outflow side) pressure of each filtering means as the data. The third detection means can be a differential pressure sensor. And the said control means determines the deterioration degree of a filter medium with the said differential pressure | voltage with respect to predetermined water flow time. In this case, it is determined that the degree of deterioration of the filter medium increases as the differential pressure increases.

前記第四検出手段は、前記各濾過手段の再生工程とつぎの再生工程との間の濾過継続時間(通水継続時間)を前記データとして検出する。そして、前記制御手段は、前記濾過継続時間により濾材の劣化度を判定する。この場合、前記濾過継続時間が短いほど濾材の劣化度が大きいと判定する。   The fourth detection means detects the filtration continuation time (water passage continuation time) between the regeneration process of each filtration means and the next regeneration process as the data. And the said control means determines the deterioration degree of a filter medium with the said filtration continuation time. In this case, it is determined that the degree of deterioration of the filter medium is larger as the filtration duration time is shorter.

前記制御手段が濾材の劣化度判定のために用いるデータは、各濾過手段の最新(直近)のデータとするが、最新のデータを含む過去適数回のデータ平均とすることができる。   The data used by the control means for determining the degree of deterioration of the filter medium is the latest (most recent) data of each filtration means, but can be an average of the past appropriate number of data including the latest data.

この発明は、前記実施の形態に限定されるものではなく、互いに並列に接続される濾過手段の通水台数を増減する濾過システムにも適用される。この濾過システムにおいても、濾材の劣化度が小さい方の濾過手段への通水を優先して行うように構成する。   The present invention is not limited to the above-described embodiment, and is also applied to a filtration system that increases or decreases the number of water passing units of filtration means connected in parallel to each other. This filtration system is also configured to preferentially pass water to the filtration means having a smaller degree of deterioration of the filter medium.

前記各検出手段は、好ましくは、システム構成を簡素化すべく、前記各濾過手段に共通の検出手段として設けるが、前記各濾過手段毎に前記各検出手段を設けることができる。   The detection means are preferably provided as detection means common to the filtration means in order to simplify the system configuration, but the detection means can be provided for each of the filtration means.

そして、前記制御手段7が濾材の劣化度判定のために用いるデータは、再生工程終了後の通水工程初期に(例えば、通水開始から30分経過してから)前記所定通水時間に前記第一水質検出手段21により検出されたデータとしている。   The data used by the control means 7 for determining the degree of deterioration of the filter medium is the initial value of the water flow process after the end of the regeneration process (for example, after 30 minutes have passed since the start of water flow). The data is detected by the first water quality detection means 21.

前記第一水質検出手段21は、第一試料水導入ライン22を介して前記第二処理水ライン11と接続されて、処理水の濁度を検出するものであり、たとえば特開2007−155372号に記載された光学計測装置を用いる。   The first water quality detection means 21 is connected to the second treated water line 11 via a first sample water introduction line 22 and detects the turbidity of treated water. For example, Japanese Patent Application Laid-Open No. 2007-155372 The optical measuring device described in 1 is used.

(Operation of water flow process)
When the preset time is reached or when it is detected by the water level detection means 17 that the water level in the treated water tank 6 is below a predetermined water supply start water level, the control means 7 Start the water process. The water flow process is performed by switching to the filtration means of the system in which the regeneration process has been completed.

前記第一系統濾過手段1Aにて通水を行うには、前記制御手段7により、前記コントロールバルブ13Aを通水位置へ切り換え、前記通水切換バルブ15Aを開き、前記通水切換バルブ15Bを閉じ、前記第二ポンプ5を停止して、前記第一ポンプ4を駆動する。すると、前記濾過手段1Aへ原水を供給し通水が開始される。そして、前記酸化剤添加手段により生じた水酸化第二鉄および前記凝集剤添加手段により生じた凝集物を含む原水が、前記濾過部手段1Aへ流入すると、前記濾過部12Aの濾材(図示省略)によって水酸化第二鉄および凝集物が捕捉されて除去され、この水が第一前記処理水ライン10Aへ流出する。前記第一処理水ライン10Aへ流出した処理水は、前記処理水タンク6に貯留される。   In order to allow water to flow through the first system filtering means 1A, the control means 7 switches the control valve 13A to the water passing position, opens the water flow switching valve 15A, and closes the water flow switching valve 15B. Then, the second pump 5 is stopped and the first pump 4 is driven. Then, raw water is supplied to the filtering means 1A and water passage is started. Then, when raw water containing ferric hydroxide produced by the oxidant addition means and aggregates produced by the flocculant addition means flows into the filtration part means 1A, the filter medium of the filtration part 12A (not shown) Thus, ferric hydroxide and aggregates are captured and removed, and this water flows out to the first treated water line 10A. The treated water that has flowed out to the first treated water line 10 </ b> A is stored in the treated water tank 6.

前記第二系統濾過手段1Bの通水工程は、前記コントロールバルブ13Bを通水位置へ切り換え、前記通水切換バルブ15Bを開き、前記通水切換バルブ15Aを閉じ、前記第二ポンプ5を停止して、前記第一ポンプ4を駆動することにより、前記第一系統濾過手段1Aと同様に行われる。   In the water flow process of the second system filtration means 1B, the control valve 13B is switched to the water flow position, the water flow switching valve 15B is opened, the water flow switching valve 15A is closed, and the second pump 5 is stopped. Then, by driving the first pump 4, the same operation as the first system filtering means 1A is performed.

(再生工程の動作)
この通水工程時、前記水質検出手段21によって所定の検出サイクル(たとえば、数時間ごと)で処理水の濁度の検出を行う。前記制御手段7は、前記水質検出手段21の検出値に基づいて、前記水質検出手段21の検出値が所定値以上となると、前記再生動作が必要であると判断する。そして、前記制御手段7は、通水工程を行っていない方の前記各濾過手段1A,1Bに通水を切り換えて前記通水動作を行わせ、通水工程を行っている方の前記各濾過手段1A,1Bにおいて再生工程を開始する。
(Operation of regeneration process)
During this water flow process, the water quality detection means 21 detects the turbidity of the treated water in a predetermined detection cycle (for example, every several hours). Based on the detection value of the water quality detection means 21, the control means 7 determines that the regeneration operation is necessary when the detection value of the water quality detection means 21 exceeds a predetermined value. Then, the control means 7 switches each of the filtration means 1A and 1B not performing the water flow process to perform the water flow operation by switching the water flow, and each of the filtration means performing the water flow process. The regeneration process is started in the means 1A and 1B.

前記第一系統濾過手段1Aの再生は、つぎのようにして行われる。前記制御手段7により、前記コントロールバルブ13Aを再生位置へ切り換え、前記通水切換バルブ15A,15Bを閉じ、前記第一ポンプ4を停止して、前記第二ポンプ5を駆動する。これにより、前記第二ポンプ5によって前記処理水タンク6内の処理水が前記濾過手段1Aの上流側へ供給され、公知の逆洗による前記濾過手段1A再生が行われ、排水は前記排水ライン14Aを通して排出される。   The regeneration of the first system filtration means 1A is performed as follows. The control means 7 switches the control valve 13A to the regeneration position, closes the water flow switching valves 15A and 15B, stops the first pump 4, and drives the second pump 5. Thereby, the treated water in the treated water tank 6 is supplied to the upstream side of the filtration means 1A by the second pump 5, the filtration means 1A is regenerated by a known backwash, and the waste water is discharged from the drain line 14A. Discharged through.

前記第二系統濾過手段1Bの再生は、つぎのようにして行われる。前記制御手段7により、前記コントロールバルブ13Bを再生位置へ切り換え、前記通水切換バルブ15A,15Bを閉じ、前記第一ポンプ4を停止して、前記第二ポンプ5を駆動することにより、前記第一系統濾過手段1Aの再生動作と同様に行われる。   The regeneration of the second system filtration means 1B is performed as follows. The control means 7 switches the control valve 13B to the regeneration position, closes the water flow switching valves 15A and 15B, stops the first pump 4, and drives the second pump 5, thereby This is performed in the same manner as the regeneration operation of the one-line filtering means 1A.

(濾材の劣化度の小さい濾過手段を優先して通水する制御)
つぎに、この発明の特徴とする濾材の劣化度の小さい濾過手段を優先して通水工程を切り換える制御について、図2、図3に基づき説明する。
(Control that gives priority to filtering means with low degree of deterioration of filter media)
Next, control for switching the water flow process with priority given to the filtering means having a low degree of deterioration of the filter medium, which is a feature of the present invention, will be described with reference to FIGS.

図2を参照して、通水工程指示によりS1にて第一系統濾過手段1Aの通水工程が行われているとする。S2へ移行して、前述の再生工程が必要かどうかの判定を行い、再生工程が必要と判定されると、S3へ移行して、前記第一系統濾過手段1Aの再生工程を開始すると同時に、前記第二系統濾過手段1Bへ通水工程の指示を出す。   With reference to FIG. 2, it is assumed that the water flow process of 1 A of 1st system filtration means is performed in S1 by the water flow process instruction | indication. The process proceeds to S2 to determine whether or not the above-described regeneration process is necessary. When it is determined that the regeneration process is necessary, the process proceeds to S3 and simultaneously with the start of the regeneration process of the first system filtering means 1A, An instruction of a water flow process is issued to the second system filtration means 1B.

この第一系統濾過手段1Aの再生工程が終了すると、S4へ移行して、運転待機(通水待機と称することができる。)に入る。そして、S5にて、通水工程開始の指示があるかどうかを判定する。前記第二系統濾過手段1Bの再生工程要の判定により、前記第一系統濾過手段1Aへ通水工程の指示が出されると、S5にてYESが判定され、S6にて通水工程を開始する。   When the regeneration process of the first system filtering means 1A is completed, the process proceeds to S4 and enters operation standby (which can be referred to as water standby). And in S5, it is determined whether there exists an instruction | indication of a water flow process start. If the instruction of the water flow process is issued to the first system filtration means 1A by determining the necessity of the regeneration process of the second system filtration means 1B, YES is determined in S5, and the water flow process is started in S6. .

この通水工程開始直後にS7の処理が行われる。S7では、前記第一系統濾過手段1Aの濾材の劣化度判定と、この濾材の劣化度判定により得られた第一系統濾過手段1Aの第一劣化度QAと前記予め記憶している前記第二系統濾過手段1Bの第二劣化度QBとの比較処理が行われる。   The process of S7 is performed immediately after the start of this water flow process. In S7, the deterioration degree determination of the filter medium of the first system filtration means 1A, the first deterioration degree QA of the first system filtration means 1A obtained by the deterioration degree determination of the filter medium, and the second stored in advance. Comparison processing with the second deterioration degree QB of the system filtering means 1B is performed.

第一系統濾過手段1Aの第一劣化度QAは、つぎのようにして求められる。まず、所定時期となる,すなわち再生工程終了後の開始から通水工程所定時間(30分)が経過すると、所定通水時間(1時間半)において前記第一水質検出手段21により検出された濁度値を平均する。そして、その平均値を前記所定通水時間の通水量で除した値を第一濾過手段性能値QAとし、図示省略の記憶手段に記憶する。   The first deterioration degree QA of the first system filtering means 1A is obtained as follows. First, when the predetermined time is reached, that is, when a predetermined time (30 minutes) has passed since the start of the regeneration process, the turbidity detected by the first water quality detection means 21 during the predetermined water flow time (1 hour and a half). Average the degree values. And the value which remove | divided the average value by the water flow quantity of the said predetermined water flow time is made into the 1st filtration means performance value QA, and is memorize | stored in the memory | storage means abbreviate | omitted illustration.

前記第二系統濾過手段1Bにおける前記濾材の劣化度判定および比較処理は、前記第二系統濾過手段1Bにおいても前記第一系統濾過手段1Aと同様に行われるので、その説明を省略する。   The determination of the degree of deterioration of the filter medium and the comparison process in the second system filtering unit 1B are performed in the second system filtering unit 1B in the same manner as in the first system filtering unit 1A, and thus description thereof is omitted.

S7において、QA≦QBのYESが判定されると、前記第一系統濾過手段1Aの通水工程を継続する。NOが判定されると、S9へ移行して濾材の劣化度が小さい側の前記第二系統濾過手段1Bへ通水工程指示を出すとともに、濾材の劣化度が大きい側の前記第一系統濾過手段1Aに対しては、S4の待機工程への移行を指示する。   In S7, if YES in QA ≦ QB is determined, the water flow process of the first system filtration means 1A is continued. If NO is determined, the process proceeds to S9 to issue a water flow process instruction to the second system filtration means 1B on the side where the degree of deterioration of the filter medium is small, and the first system filtration means on the side where the degree of deterioration of the filter medium is large 1A is instructed to shift to the standby step of S4.

前記第二系統濾過手段1Bにおいても図3に示す制御手順により、前記第一系統濾過手段1Aと同様に通水工程,再生工程の制御が行われる。図3のS11〜S19は、それぞれ図2のS1〜S9に対応して、同じ処理であるので、その説明を省略する。   In the second system filtration means 1B, the water flow process and the regeneration process are controlled in the same manner as the first system filtration means 1A by the control procedure shown in FIG. Since S11 to S19 in FIG. 3 correspond to S1 to S9 in FIG. 2 and are the same processing, description thereof is omitted.

この実施例1においては、前記制御手段7は、前記各濾過手段1A,1Bの濾材の劣化度を判定し、判定した前記濾過手段1A,1Bの間で濾材の劣化度を比較して、濾材の劣化度が小さい方の濾過手段1A,1Bへ通水を切り換える。その結果、濾材の劣化度が小さく濾過性能が高い前記濾過手段1A,1Bを優先的に使用することになるので、濾材の劣化度を比較することなく、通水を切り換える従来システムと比較して、濾過システム全体の濾過性能を最大化することができる。   In the first embodiment, the control means 7 determines the degree of deterioration of the filtering medium of the filtering means 1A, 1B, compares the degree of deterioration of the filtering medium between the determined filtering means 1A, 1B, and filters the filtering medium. The water flow is switched to the filtering means 1A, 1B having the smaller degree of deterioration. As a result, the filter means 1A and 1B having a low degree of deterioration of the filter medium and high filtration performance are preferentially used. Therefore, compared with a conventional system that switches water flow without comparing the degree of deterioration of the filter medium. The filtration performance of the entire filtration system can be maximized.

また、再生工程後の通水工程時に、濾材の劣化度を比較して、濾材の劣化度が小さい濾過手段を優先して使用するようにしているので、単に再生工程終了の濾過手段を優先して使用するものと比較して、濾過システム全体の濾過性能より高いものとすることができる。   In addition, during the water flow process after the regeneration process, the filter medium is compared with the degree of deterioration, and the filter means with a low degree of filter medium deterioration is given priority, so the filter means at the end of the regeneration process is given priority. The filtration performance of the entire filtration system can be higher than that of the filtration system used.

さらに、再生工程終了後の通水工程初期に、前記第一水質検出手段21の再生工程終了後の通水工程初期に得た検出値に基づき濾材の劣化度を判定し、濾材の劣化度を比較するようにしているので、比較的正確に濾材の劣化度を判定でき、濾材の劣化度が小さい濾過性能の高い濾過手段への切り換えを確実に行うことができる。   Furthermore, at the initial stage of the water flow process after the completion of the regeneration process, the deterioration degree of the filter medium is determined based on the detection value obtained at the initial stage of the water flow process after the completion of the regeneration process of the first water quality detection means 21, and the degree of deterioration of the filter medium is determined. Since the comparison is made, the degree of deterioration of the filter medium can be determined relatively accurately, and switching to a filtering means having a low degree of deterioration of the filter medium and high filtration performance can be performed reliably.

この発明は、前記実施例1に限定されるものではなく、つぎの実施例2を含むものである。この実施例2は、前記実施例1の第一水質検出手段21を第二水質検出手段23に代えたもので、その他の構成は、前記実施例1と同様であり、前記実施例1の図2,3示す制御手順で制御される。以下に、同実施例2を図4に基づき説明する。以下の説明では、前記実施例1と異なる構成を中心に説明し、前記実施例1と同じ構成についてはその説明を省略する。 The present invention is not limited to the first embodiment, but includes the following second embodiment. In the second embodiment, the first water quality detection means 21 of the first embodiment is replaced with the second water quality detection means 23, and other configurations are the same as those of the first embodiment. It is controlled by the control procedure shown in 2 and 3. Hereinafter, Example 2 will be described with reference to FIG. In the following description, the configuration different from the first embodiment will be mainly described, and the description of the same configuration as the first embodiment will be omitted.

前記第二水質検出手段23は、前記第一試料水導入ライン22を介して前記第二処理水ライン11と接続され、第三試料水導入ライン24を介して前記第一原水ライン8と接続されて、被処理水の水質および処理水の水質を濾材の劣化度を判定のための前記データとして検出する。この第二水質検出手段23としては、濁度センサとしている。その他の構成は、前記実施例1と同様であるので、その説明を省略する。   The second water quality detection means 23 is connected to the second treated water line 11 via the first sample water introduction line 22 and is connected to the first raw water line 8 via a third sample water introduction line 24. Thus, the quality of the water to be treated and the quality of the treated water are detected as the data for determining the degree of deterioration of the filter medium. The second water quality detection means 23 is a turbidity sensor. Since other configurations are the same as those of the first embodiment, the description thereof is omitted.
