Description

fluid handling system

technical field

In one aspect, the present invention relates to a fluid treatment system, and more particularly, to an ultraviolet radiation water treatment system. In another aspect, the invention relates to a method for treating fluid, and more particularly, to a method for treating irradiated water.

Background technique

Generally, fluid handling systems are known in the art. More specifically, ultraviolet (UV) radiation fluid treatment systems are generally known in the art. Early processing systems included the design of a fully enclosed chamber containing one or more radiation (preferably UV) lamps. Certain problems existed in such early designs. These problems are particularly pronounced when applied to large open fluid treatment plants, such as are typical of larger scale municipal sewage or drinking water treatment plants. Accordingly, such reactors have the following associated problems:

● Higher capital cost of the reactor;

Difficult access to submerged reactors and/or wet equipment (lamps, sleeve cleaners, etc.);

Difficulty removing fouled material from fluid handling equipment;

● Lower fluid disinfection efficiency, and/or

• Requires cumbersome equipment for maintenance on wetted components (sleeves, lamps, etc.). These disadvantages in conventional reactors have led to the development of so-called "open channel" reactors.

For example, U.S. Patents 4,482,809 and 5,006,244 (both in the name of Maarschalkerweerd and both assigned to the assignee of the present invention, and referred to herein as the Maarschalkerweerd #1 patent) both describe gravity feedback fluid treatment systems using ultraviolet (UV) radiation .

Such systems include an array (e.g., a frame) of UV lamp modules comprising a number of UV lamps, each mounted within a sleeve extending between and supported by a pair of arms that are connected to the section touch. The so supported sleeve (including UV lamps) is immersed in a fluid which is treated and then irradiated as required. The amount of exposure of the fluid to radiation is determined by the proximity of the fluid to the lamp, the wattage output of the lamp and the flow of fluid through the lamp. Typically, one or more UV sensors may be used to monitor the UV output of the lamps and typically control the level of fluid downstream of the treatment device to some extent, typically through a water level gate or the like.

The Maarschalkerweerd #1 patent presents a fluid handling system characterized by improved performance of taking equipment out of a wet or submerged state without requiring full equipment repetition. Such designs divide the lamp arrangement into rows and/or columns, and feature open tops with reactors to provide free surface flow of fluid in "open top" channels.

The fluid handling system given in the Maarschalkerweerd #1 patent is characterized by having a free surface flow of fluid (typically, no top fluid surface is intentionally controlled or defined). Therefore, the system will typically follow the kinetic behavior of open channel hydraulics. Since the design of the system inherently includes free surface flow of fluid, there is a limit to the maximum flow that each lamp can handle, lest certain hydraulically contiguous arrangements be adversely affected by changes in water level. At higher flow rates or significant changes in flow rate, unrestricted or free surface flow of the fluid will be used to alter the process capacity and cross-sectional shape of the fluid flow, thus making the reactor relatively less efficient. If the power supplied to each lamp in the array is lower, the fluid flow per lamp will be lower. The fluid handling system full open channel concept will be satisfied in these lower wattage lamp and lower hydraulic load handling systems. The problem here is that lower wattage lamps are used, so a relatively large number of lamps are required to treat the same volume of fluid flow. Therefore, the inherent cost of the system would be prohibitively high and/or not competitive with the added features of automatic lamp sleeve cleaning and large fluid volume handling systems.

Such circumstances have resulted in so-called "semi-closed" fluid handling systems.

U.S. Patents 5,418,370, 5,539,210, and Re36,896 (all in the name of Maarschalkerweerd and assigned to the assignee of the present invention, hereinafter referred to as the Maarschalkerweerd #2 patent) all describe an improved radiation source module for use in Gravity feedback fluid handling system for UV radiation. Typically, the improved radiation source module comprises a sealed radiation source assembly (typically comprising a radiation source and a protective (eg quartz) sleeve) cantilevered from a support member. The support member may further comprise suitable means for securing the radiation source module in a gravity feedback fluid treatment system.

Thus, to address having a large number of lamps and the increased high cost of cleaning each lamp, lamps with higher output are applied to UV fluid processing. The result is a significant reduction in the number of lamps and the length of each lamp. This results in a cost-effective automatic lamp tube cleaning device, a reduced space requirement for the treatment system, and other advantages. In order to use more high-power lamps (such as medium pressure UV lamps), the hydraulic load per lamp during system use will increase to a certain extent, if the reactor surface is not defined on all surfaces then the treatment capacity of the fluid in the reactor / The cross-sectional area would change significantly, and thus would render such a system relatively ineffective. Thus, the Maarschalkerweerd #2 patent is characterized by having enclosed surfaces that define the treated fluid within the treatment zone of the reactor. The closed processing system has an open end disposed within the open channel. Submerged or wet equipment (UV lamps, cleaners, etc.) can be taken out of the semi-closed reactor to a free surface using pivoting hinges, sliding means, and various other means to enable movement of the equipment.

The fluid treatment system described in the Maarschalkerweerd #2 patent is typically characterized by a lamp having a short length cantilevered to a generally vertical support arm (eg the lamp is only supported at one end). This allows the lamp to be pivoted or otherwise removed from the semi-closed reactor. These significantly shorter and more powerful lamps are characterized by a lower efficiency in converting electrical energy to UV energy. The cost of accessing and supporting these lights associated with this equipment is significant.

Historically, the fluid treatment modules and systems described in the Maarschalkerweerd #1 and #2 patents have found widespread application in the field of municipal wastewater treatment (eg, treatment of water discharged into rivers, ponds, lakes or other similar water streams).

In the field of municipal drinking water it is known to use so-called "closed" fluid treatment systems or "pressurized" fluid treatment systems.

For known closed fluid handling devices, see for example US Patent 5,504,335 (Maarschalkerweerd #3). Maarschalkerweerd #3 presents a closed fluid handling device comprising a housing for receiving a fluid flow. The housing includes a fluid inlet, a fluid outlet, a fluid treatment region disposed between the fluid inlet and the fluid outlet, and at least one radiation source module disposed in the fluid treatment region. The fluid inlet, fluid outlet and fluid treatment zone are in linear relationship to each other. The at least one radiation source module includes a radiation source sealingly connected to an arm that is sealingly mounted on the housing. The radiation source is arranged generally parallel to the fluid flow. The radiation source module is movable to the fluid inlet and fluid outlet through apertures provided in the intermediate housing, thus avoiding the need to physically move the device when servicing the radiation source.

Closed fluid treatment apparatus, particularly for the treatment of fluids such as water with ultraviolet radiation, is given in US Patent 6,500,346 [Taghipour et al. (Taghipour)]. The device includes a housing for receiving a fluid flow. The housing has a fluid inlet, a fluid outlet, a fluid treatment zone disposed between the fluid inlet and the fluid outlet, and at least one radiation source having a longitudinal axis disposed in the fluid treatment zone approximately in line with the The direction of fluid flow crosses transversely. The fluid inlet, fluid outlet and fluid treatment zone are arranged in generally linear relationship to each other. The fluid inlet has a first opening having (i) a cross-sectional area less than the cross-sectional area of the fluid treatment zone, and (ii) a largest diameter generally parallel to the longitudinal axis of the at least one radiation source assembly.

In practical implementations of known fluid treatment systems of the type described above, the longitudinal axis of the radiation source is: (i) parallel to the direction of fluid flow through the fluid treatment system, or (ii) orthogonal to the direction of fluid flow through the fluid treatment system. The direction of fluid flow. Also, in arrangement (ii) the lamps are typically arranged in an array such that the downstream radiation source is directly behind the upstream radiation source from the upstream end to the downstream end of the fluid treatment system.

The use of arrangement (ii) in UV radiation water treatment systems is based on the theory that radiation is effective within a prescribed distance from the radiation source, depending on the transmittance of the water being treated. Therefore, it becomes commonplace to leave the radiation sources spaced apart in arrangement (ii) such that adjacent radiation sources are spaced apart on their longitudinal axes by a distance approximately equal to twice the specified distance mentioned in the previous sentence.

Disadvantageously, for the treatment of large volumes of fluid, arrangement (ii) is disadvantageous for several reasons. In particular, implementation of arrangement (ii) requires a relatively large "footprint" or space to accommodate the radiation source. Also, the use of a large number of radiation sources in arrangement (ii) produces a larger drag coefficient, resulting in larger hydraulic losses/gradients over the length of the fluid treatment system. Furthermore, the use of a large number of radiation sources in arrangement (ii) creates eddy current effects (discussed in more detail below), resulting in forced vibrations of the radiation sources which increase the Possibility of damage to the pipe (if any).

Accordingly, there remains a need in the art for fluid treatment systems, particularly closed fluid treatment systems having one or more of the following characteristics:

●Can handle large volume of fluid (such as sewage or drinking water, etc.);

the ability to increase the limit on the maximum allowable velocity through the reactor;

●Requires a smaller "footprint area";

• Creates a lower drag coefficient, improving hydraulic losses/gradients over the length of the fluid handling system;

Create low (or no) forced vibrations of the radiation source, thus avoiding or mitigating damage to the radiation source and/or protective casing (if any);

Can be easily adapted to utilize more recently developed so-called "low pressure high output" (LPHO), amalgam and/or UV emitting lamps, while allowing easy removal of the lamp from the fluid handling system when used for maintenance etc.;

Ability to use standard length lamps for various widths of reactors;

Can be easily integrated with a cleaning system to remove fouling material from the outside of the radiation source;

●It can be easily installed in the existing fluid treatment plant in the way of updating and upgrading;

• Provides relatively improved disinfection performance compared to conventional fluid handling systems.

In addition to the arrangement of radiation source modules described above, it is also possible to use so-called border radiation source modules, ie radiation source modules located parallel to or close to opposing reactor walls. The axes of all boundary radiation source components are adjacent to each other, and the outer boundary radiation source components are in the same plane.

Accordingly, the fluid treatment system of the present invention has one or more of the following advantages:

●Can handle large volume of fluid (such as sewage or drinking water, etc.);

the ability to increase the limit on the maximum allowable velocity through the reactor;

●Requires a smaller "footprint area";

Provides relatively improved disinfection performance compared to conventional fluid treatment systems (i.e., the radiation source is positioned in the system with its longitudinal axis parallel or perpendicular to the direction of fluid flow through a fluid treatment zone contained within the system) .

In a general aspect, the present invention relates to a fluid treatment system comprising at least two radiation source assemblies arranged in a novel manner. Specifically, the radiation source assembly is arranged such that the respective longitudinal axes of the radiation sources therein are in a non-parallel relationship to each other and not parallel to the direction of fluid flow through the fluid treatment zone. This arrangement differs from conventional fluid treatment systems in which all lamps are arranged such that the longitudinal axes of the radiation sources within the radiation source assembly are in a parallel relationship and these axes are either perpendicular or parallel to the direction of fluid flow. direction.

In a particularly preferred embodiment of one aspect of the invention, the radiation source assemblies are arranged generally V-shaped in the arrangement. In this embodiment, there are preferably banks of radiation source assemblies arranged to form a V-shaped arrangement. As explained in more detail below, one advantage of orienting the radiation source assembly in this manner is that forced vibrations of the radiation source due to eddy current effects are significantly reduced.

In another aspect, the invention relates to a fluid treatment system wherein the radiation source assemblies are arranged in a series of rows transverse or parallel to the direction of fluid flow through the fluid treatment zone, each row comprising A plurality of radiation source assemblies arranged at intervals in the direction of the fluid treatment zone. In one embodiment of this aspect of the invention (also referred to as "staggered/transversely oriented"), the radiation source assemblies are positioned transverse to the direction of fluid flow through the fluid treatment zone and are oriented in such a way that From an upstream portion of the zone to a downstream portion, the radiation source assemblies are staggered in a direction perpendicular to the direction of fluid flow through the fluid treatment zone, thereby defining a partial overlap between these assemblies. Preferably, the collection of components is arranged such that there is no unimpeded path for fluid flow through the arrangement of the radiation source components within the fluid treatment zone. In practice, this can be seen by looking at the inlet to the fluid treatment zone and seeing that there is no clear, unobstructed pathway within the arrangement of radiation source assemblies through the fluid treatment zone from the inlet to the outlet. In another embodiment of this aspect of the invention (also referred to as "staggered/parallel orientation"), the radiation source assemblies are arranged parallel to the direction in which fluid flow through the radiation source assemblies within the fluid treatment zone is arranged, and in such a Oriented in a manner, that is, from the upstream portion to the downstream portion of the fluid treatment zone, the radiation source assemblies are arranged in the form of at least two series-arranged array groups, so that the radiation source assemblies in the upstream array group are arranged in a row perpendicular to the fluid flow passing through The orientation of the arrangement of radiation source assemblies in the fluid treatment zone is staggered with the rows of radiation source assemblies in the downstream array.

In another aspect, the invention relates to a fluid treatment system wherein an arrangement of radiation source assemblies is provided in a fluid treatment zone. The radiation source assembly is oriented transverse to the direction of fluid flow through the fluid treatment zone. The arrangement of radiation source assemblies includes a first row of radiation source assemblies arranged to define a predetermined spacing between pairs of radiation source assemblies within a row perpendicular to a direction of fluid flow through the fluid treatment zone. At least two further rows of radiation source assemblies are disposed downstream of the first row of radiation source assemblies. In a preferred embodiment, these downstream radiation source assembly rows (e.g., two or more rows) combine to fill or occupy the predetermined spacing between radiation source assembly pairs within a column of lamps in the first row, i.e., if Radiation source assembly arrangement viewed from inlet of fluid handling system. In another preferred embodiment, these downstream radiation source assembly rows (eg, two or more rows) combine to only partially fill or occupy the predetermined spacing between radiation source assembly pairs within a column of lamps in the first row, That is, if the radiation source assembly arrangement is viewed from the inlet of the fluid treatment system.

In the present fluid treatment system so-called transition zones can be incorporated upstream and/or downstream of the fluid treatment zone. Preferably, such a transition zone acts as a funnel or other fluid flow transition such that the cross-sectional area of fluid flow perpendicular to the direction of fluid flow: (i) increases (if the transition zone is located upstream of the fluid treatment zone) thereby The velocity of the fluid flow is reduced, or (ii) reduced (if the transition zone is located downstream of the fluid treatment zone) thereby increasing the velocity of the fluid flow.

Throughout the specification, reference is made to terms such as "enclosed area", "enclosed section" and "constrained". Basically, these terms are interchangeable and both are used to denote a structure that effectively encloses a fluid flow in a manner similar to that described in the Maarshalkerweerd #2 patent (with specific reference to the fluid treatment zone described therein).

Also, as used throughout this specification, the term "fluid" has a broad meaning and includes both liquids and gases. Preferred fluids for the treatment of the present invention are liquids, preferably water (eg waste water, industrial effluent, reused water, drinking water, ground water, etc.). Also, the terms "row" and "column" are used in this specification in relation to the arrangement of radiation sources, it being understood that the two terms can be used interchangeably.

Those skilled in the art will appreciate the use of seals and the like described in this specification to provide an actual fluid seal between adjacent components within a fluid treatment system. For example, it is known to those skilled in the art to use a combination of mating nuts, O-rings, bushings, etc. to provide approximate communication between the exterior of the radiation source assembly (e.g., water) and the interior of the radiation source assembly containing the radiation source (e.g., a UV lamp). Liquid-tight seal.

Detailed ways

Referring to Figure 1, a fluid treatment system 10 is shown. Fluid treatment system 10 includes inlet 12 and outlet 24 . Fluid treatment zone 20 is disposed between inlet 12 and outlet 24 .

Fluid treatment zone 20 is interconnected with inlet 12 by inlet transition zone 14 , which includes first transition zone 16 and intermediate transition zone 18 . Outlet 24 is interconnected with fluid treatment zone 20 through outlet transition zone 22 .

As shown, fluid passes in the direction of arrow A through fluid treatment system 10 (including fluid treatment zone 20).

As shown, inlet 12, inlet transition zone 14, fluid treatment zone 20, outlet transition zone 22, and outlet 24 all have closed cross-sections. The term "closed section" is used to mean a closed body that defines fluid flow on all sides and/or surfaces.

As shown, the inlet 12 and outlet 24 have a circular cross-section, much like a conventional duct arrangement. As also shown, the fluid treatment zone 20 has a square or rectangular cross-section. Of course, the fluid treatment zone 20 can also be configured with other cross-sectional shapes.

Disposed in the fluid treatment zone 20 is a first array 26 of radiation source assemblies and a second array 28 of radiation source assemblies. Each radiation source assembly within arrays 26 and 28 is elongated and has a longitudinal axis oblique to the direction of fluid flow through fluid treatment zone 20 (see arrow A or dashed line 30 projected from arrow A).

Radiation source assemblies within array 26 are mounted on one side of fluid treatment zone 20 and have distal ends supported by support elements 32 . Similarly, each radiation source assembly within array 28 has one end mounted on one side of fluid treatment zone 20 and a distal end supported by support member 32 .

As a result, the arrangement of the radiation source assemblies formed by arrays 26 and 28 relative to fluid flow is in the form of a V-shaped configuration with the apex of the "V" pointing towards the fluid flow. Of course, the apex of the "V" could also point in the opposite direction.

Also, while the distal ends of each radiation source assembly within arrays 26 and 28 are supported by a single support member 32, other support members will be apparent to those skilled in the art.

As shown, the intermediate transition region 18 is used to provide a nesting area for the apex of the lamp arrangement. In this way, the sides of the intermediate transition region 18 are preferably tapered to a smaller size while, in the embodiment shown, the top and bottom are kept at a consistent size (further described below).

The first transition zone 16 interconnects the intermediate transition zone 18 and the inlet 12 and serves the purpose of (i) reducing the size of the enclosure, and (ii) transitioning the cross-sectional shape from polygonal to circular. Similarly, the outlet transition zone 22 serves to reduce the size of the enclosure and transition the cross-sectional shape of the enclosure from circular to polygonal.

The inlet transition zone 14 and outlet transition zone 22 also serve to avoid or mitigate head loss problems that can arise if significant changes in enclosure size occur in the system.

A second embodiment of the fluid treatment system will now be described with reference to Figures 2-5. In the accompanying drawings 2-5, the last two digits of the component numbers are the same as those in Fig. 1 to represent similar components.

Referring to Figures 2-5, a fluid treatment system 100 is shown. Fluid treatment system 100 includes inlet 112 and outlet 124 . Fluid treatment system 100 also includes fluid treatment zone 120 .

Inlet 112 is interconnected with fluid treatment zone 120 by inlet transition zone 114 . Fluid outlet 124 is interconnected with fluid treatment zone 120 through outlet transition zone 122 . The entry transition region 114 includes a first transition region 116 and an intermediate transition region 118 .

Disposed in the fluid treatment zone 120 is a first array 126 of radiation source assemblies and a second array 128 of radiation source assemblies. The orientation of radiation source assemblies within arrays 126 and 128 relative to the fluid flow through fluid treatment zone 120 is similar to that described above for FIG. 1 .

As shown, the distal portion of each radiation source assembly within arrays 126 and 128 is supported by a support column that is aligned with (i) the direction of fluid flow through fluid treatment zone 120, and (ii) each The longitudinal axis of the radiation source assembly is disposed transversely.

As shown, particularly in relation to FIG. 4 , support columns 134 are used to line each row of radiation source assemblies in groups 126 and 128 . As further shown in FIG. 4 , the upstream end of the radiation source array includes a row of radiation source assemblies from array group 126 connected to support columns 134 , ie without a similar row of radiation source assemblies from array group 128 supported by the upstream central support. Such an arrangement is reversed at the downstream support post 134a. Alternatively, each central support column acts as a row from each array 126 and 128 to support the distal portion of the radiation source assembly. In some cases, the support column 134 also serves as a baffle, and approximately as a shield, after which cleaning means (described below) are arranged.

Referring specifically to FIGS. 2 and 5 , it can be seen that mounting sleeve 136 is cast or otherwise secured to the outer surface of fluid treatment zone 120 . The proximal region of each radiation source assembly is received within mounting sleeve 136 and is capable of achieving a fluid-type seal (not shown) in a conventional manner.

As further shown in FIGS. 2-5, the inlet 112 and outlet 124 may be adapted to have suitable standard flange elements 113 and 125, respectively. This facilitates the isolation of fluid treatment system 100 in conventional piping. For example, flange members 113 and 125 can be configured in conventional sizes, such as 12 inches to 72 inches.

Referring specifically to FIG. 3 , it will be seen that arrays 126 and 128 are arranged as radiation source assembly arrays that, when viewed through inlet 112 , appear as obstructions that completely fill fluid treatment zone 120 . In other words, no fluid can pass through fluid treatment zone 120 without being forced around a significant path through radiation source assemblies in arrays 126 and/or 128 . In this case, the observer can see the axis of each radiation source assembly along the direction of fluid flow through fluid treatment zone 120 .

Such an effect may be produced by partially staggering the orientation of the radiation source assemblies in groups 126 and 128 . For example, referring to FIG. 5 , it can be seen that extending longitudinally along the fluid treatment zone 120, the upstream radiation source assembly and the downstream radiation source assembly partially overlap in a continuous manner, see, for example, line 150 in FIG. Such gradual interleaving of the radiation source assemblies in each permutation group 126 and 128. In other words, a downstream radiation source assembly is partially exposed and partially obscured by an adjacent upstream radiation source assembly. In this way, it can be seen that the above-mentioned complete obstruction of the cross-sectional area portion of the fluid treatment zone 120 (for example, the portion where the array groups 126 and 128 are located) is not caused by the staggering of radiation source assemblies in two consecutive columns in the array groups 126 and 128 so that downstream The radiation source assembly is filled between a pair of upstream radiation source assemblies. Rather, in this embodiment, three or more columns of such radiation source assemblies are combined to be oriented to achieve complete obstruction.

Preferably, each radiation source assembly preferably includes a strip-shaped radiation source (such as a low-voltage high-output ultraviolet radiation lamp, an ultraviolet radiation lamp) disposed in a protective sleeve (such as a radiation-transmitting material such as quartz). In some cases, it may be (or preferable) to utilize a radiation source without a protective sleeve (eg, a photon spotlight without a protective sleeve).

As can be seen with particular reference to FIG. 5 , the intermediate region 118 of the inlet transition zone 114 has the same lateral direction as the fluid treatment zone 120 . The sides of the intermediate region 118 of the entry transition region 114 taper as shown in FIG. 4 . Such an arrangement on the one hand allows a tapered transition and on the other hand leaves enough space for the apex of the radiation source arrangement.

Radiation source assemblies in arrays 126 and 128 have longitudinal axes that are oblique to the direction of fluid flow (arrow A) through fluid treatment zone 120 . As a result, the orientation of the apex shapes of the radiation source assemblies in permutations 126 and 128 can be clearly seen, for example, in FIG. 4 . The angle α between the longitudinal axes of the radiation source assemblies in arrays 126 and 128 is preferably in the range of from about 15° to about 170°, more preferably in the range of from about 35° to 120°, more preferably In the range of from about 50° to about 120°, most preferably in the range of about 60° to about 90°. Those skilled in the art know that in the case of a radiation source with a fixed length, this angle will determine the cross-sectional area of the reactor. Also, although not specifically shown in the figures here, it is preferred and desirable to incorporate a cleaning device in the fluid treatment system of the present invention to remove fouling material from the exterior of the radiation source assemblies in arrays 126 and 128 .

An example of a cleaning device incorporated in the present fluid treatment system is shown schematically in FIG. 9 . As shown, the cleaning device can be incorporated as a sleeve formed in a reciprocating fashion on the exterior of the radiation source assembly. As shown, a cleaning device 28 is provided for each radiation source assembly in the form of a movable sleeve. In the illustrated embodiment, the cleaning device 28 is "arranged" so that it is located downstream of the support column 134 . The characteristics of the cleaning device 28 are not particularly limited. See, eg, US Patents 6,342,188 [Pearcey et al] and 6,646,269 [Traubenberg et al], both assigned to the assignee of the present invention.

Referring to Figure 6, there is shown schematically a side elevational view of a radiation source assembly arrangement. Generally, such an arrangement is the same as the V-shaped configuration described above. As shown, row B of 6 radiation source assemblies are arranged vertically in the fluid treatment zone. There is a predetermined spacing C between each pair of radiation source assemblies in row B.

As shown, the radiation source assemblies downstream of row B are arranged in such a manner that two or more subsequent downstream vertical rows of radiation source assemblies need to partially obstruct the predetermined spacing C. In other words, if the arrangement of radiation source assemblies is viewed along arrow D, fluid flow through the predetermined interval C will be impeded due to the arrangement of at least two rows of radiation source assemblies downstream of row B. Those skilled in the art know that, with a relatively large number of rows B, the staggered radiation source elements of each row can completely block the line of sight through the staggered arrangement, and if there are fewer radiation source elements, the line of sight will not be blocked. Totally obstructed.

As shown, the radiation source assembly arrangement includes a quarter of boundary lights arranged in the same plane at the outer edge of the staggered arrangement, in this embodiment, the boundary lights are arranged in the same plane at the outer edge of the fluid treatment zone. in plane. As further shown, the radiation source assemblies are arranged to define a repeating pattern consisting of parallelograms containing four radiation source assemblies.

FIG. 7 shows a schematic diagram similar to FIG. 6 except that the staggering of radiation source components is different than that shown in FIG. 6 . In particular, it can be seen that the repeating pattern of parallelograms described above with reference to FIG. 6 does not occur in the arrangement shown in FIG. 7 . Additionally, Figure 7 does not show the use of boundary lights for radiation source assemblies and the staggering of subsequent rows such that the gap between pairs of radiation source assemblies in the first row can be seen when the radiation source assembly arrangement is viewed from one end of the fluid treatment zone Efficiently filled by more than two subsequent rows.

Figure 8a is a schematic diagram similar to that shown in Figure 4, except that two sets of arrangements 120a and 120b are used in the fluid treatment zone. As shown, each of arrays 120a and 120b is a V-shaped configuration similar to that shown in FIGS. 1-4 above.

Figure 8b is a schematic diagram similar to that shown in Figure 4, except that four arrangements, 120b, 120c and 120d, are used in the fluid treatment zone. As shown, each of arrays 120a, 120b, 120c, and 120d is a V-shaped configuration similar to that shown in FIGS. 1-4 above. Preferably, each of 120a, 120b, 120c and 120d is arranged as described below with reference to FIG. 16 . In Fig. 8b, it is preferable that the spacing between adjacent ones 120a, 120b, 120c and 120d is equal to the spacing between each adjacent pair of lamps in a row of lamps in the arrangement (eg dimension X in Fig. 16).

Referring to Figure 10, there is schematically shown a radiation source assembly E arranged with its longitudinal axis normal to the direction of fluid flow indicated by arrow A, such orientations are known in the art. Such orientation of the radiation source assembly E forms a circular cross-section in the direction of fluid flow indicated by arrow A, as known to those skilled in the art. Downstream of the radiation source assembly E, random and wide-angle vortices are thus generated. The result is forced vibrations of the radiation source assembly E and/or other radiation source assemblies in the vicinity of the radiation source assembly E, which can lead to destruction of the assembly.

Referring to Fig. 11, there is schematically shown a radiation source assembly F oriented in the manner described above with reference to Figs. 1-4. In this orientation, the radiation source assembly F forms an oval or elliptical cross-section in the direction of fluid flow indicated by arrow A. As shown in FIG. The vortex downstream of the radiation source assembly F is thus more regular and less prone to defects of forced vibrations that could lead to destruction of the radiation source assembly.

Referring to Figures 12-15, there are shown end schematic views (eg, views through the fluid treatment zone) of various embodiments with reference to the staggered/parallel orientation described above. In Figs. 12-15, "first", "second", and "third" are used as references when describing the "arrangement group" composed of radiation source components. These terms are intended to denote a series of positions for a given "array" in a direction from an upstream portion to a downstream portion of a fluid treatment zone.

Therefore, referring to FIG. 12 , it will be seen that there are two kinds of interleaving of rows of radiation source assemblies in the "first permutation group": (i) the interleaving of the downstream (or upstream) "second permutation group" of the relevant radiation source assemblies, and (ii) ) the interleaving between adjacent rows of radiation sources in the "first permutation group". The arrangement of the radiation source assembly shown in Fig. 12 is particularly suitable for use in a fluid treatment system such as that described in the Maarshalkerweerd #2 patent.

Referring to FIG. 13 , there is shown another schematic arrangement of radiation source assemblies according to the staggered/parallel orientation described above with reference. The arrangement of the radiation source assembly shown in Figure 13 is particularly suitable for use in open channel fluid treatment systems such as those described in the Maarshalkerweerd #1 patent. As shown, the arrangement of radiation source assemblies includes a first array, a second array, and a third array. Three adjacent rows of radiation source assemblies in the first, second and third permutations can be seen from the end view, each of the first and third permutations being:( i) the associated second permutation groups are interleaved, and (ii) are not interleaved with each other. The final directional feature of the radiation may be: (i) forming an equilateral triangle through the axes of the radiation source assemblies in adjacent rows of the same permutation group, and (ii) passing through the first permutation group, the second permutation group and the third permutation group The axes of the radiation source assemblies within three adjacent rows in a group form an equilateral triangle.

Referring to Figures 14 and 15, there are shown schematic views of a radiation source assembly arrangement similar to that described above with reference to Figure 13 . In Figure 13, from the reactor wall on the left hand side, the row positions are: first the first permutation group, then the second permutation group, then the third permutation group. In Figure 14, from the reactor wall on the left-hand side, the row positions are: first the second permutation group, then the third permutation group, then the first permutation group. In Figure 15, from the reactor wall on the left hand side, the row positions are: first the second permutation group, then the first permutation group, then the third permutation group.

Referring to Figure 16, there is shown a highly preferred arrangement for a radiation source assembly for use in the present fluid treatment system. Therefore, in Fig. 16, the schematic arrangement of the radiation source assembly is shown in a side elevational view of the fluid treatment system (ie, for clarity, the specific details of the radiation source assembly support, electrical connection and sealing are omitted). Each oval in FIG. 16 represents an opening in the wall of the fluid treatment system through which the end of the radiation source assembly radiates. The radiation source assembly is preferably arranged in a manner such as described above with reference to any of Figures 1-4, 8a and 8b.

Continuing with reference to FIG. 16 , there is shown a preferred embodiment fluid treatment system 200 comprising an enclosed (or closed) fluid treatment zone having a reactor top 205 and a reactor bottom 240 . Disposed between the top plate 205 and the bottom plate 240 are four modules A, B, C and D of radiation source assemblies. Modules A, B, C and D are roughly the same. Those skilled in the art will recognize that although four modules are shown in FIG. in four modules.

Each of modules A, B, C and D includes rows 210 , 215 , 220 and 225 . As shown, rows 215 and 220 each include a series of radiation source assemblies, with each adjacent pair of radiation source assemblies in each row being spaced in a generally uniform manner. Specifically, the distance between all adjacent pairs of radiation source assemblies in row 215 is X, and the distance between all adjacent pairs of radiation source assemblies in row 210 is also X.

Referring to rows 210 and 225 , it will be seen that most adjacent pairs of radiation source assemblies have an equal spacing, which in a preferred embodiment is X as shown in the associated row 215 and 220 . However, rows 210 and 225 also contain a pair of radiation source assemblies that are spaced Y apart from the spacing X used elsewhere in rows 210 and 225 .

As seen with reference to block A, four radiation source assemblies comprising a single radiation source assembly from each row 210 , 215 , 220 , 225 are arranged to define a parallelogram repeating unit E . Parallelogram unit E includes all radiation source assemblies in module A except a pair of boundary radiation source assemblies 230 . Those skilled in the art will appreciate that module A (one or more of modules B, C, and D) can be scaled up or down using the parallelogram repeating pattern E, depending on factors such as the volume of fluid being processed.

Another feature of module A is the so-called staggered sequence of radiation source components shown in parallelogram repeating unit E. As shown, for a given parallelogram pattern E, proceeding from reactor top plate 205 to reactor floor 240 is the order of rows that arrive at radiation source assemblies 210 , 220 , 215 , and 225 . In other words, for a given parallelogram repeating unit E, the order of the rows proceeding from the upstream portion of the fluid treatment zone to the downstream portion of the fluid treatment zone (i.e. 210, 215, 220, 225) is different than the sequence of rows proceeding from the reactor ceiling 205 to the The sequence of the reactor floor 240 (ie 210, 220, 215, 225). This creates a parallelogram repeating unit E, which has the advantage of having the ability to efficiently process fluid passing through the fluid handling system 200 .

In particular, this so-called staggered sequence allows scalability and adjustability of the power used to operate the fluid treatment system. This means that using a staggered sequence such as a repeating pattern E of parallelograms, it is possible to achieve the desired results in a given module (e.g. module A, depending on factors such as fluid transmittance, type, and/or concentration of a particular contaminant, etc.) , one, more, or all of B, C, and D) to reduce power consumption or even cut power in certain rows of radiation source assemblies. For example, the radiation source assemblies in rows 210 and 215 can be operated at full power, while the power supplied to the radiation source assemblies in rows 220 and 225 is reduced or turned off. This advantageously accommodates the overall power consumption of the fluid treatment system (power consumption is typically the single largest operating expense associated with a fluid treatment system).

If the sequence of rows proceeding from the upstream portion of the fluid treatment zone to the downstream portion of the fluid treatment zone (i.e. 210, 220, 215, 225) is the same as the sequence of rows proceeding from the reactor top plate 205 to the reactor floor 240 (i.e. 210, 215, 220, 225), it will be difficult to achieve such fine-tuning. In this case, in order to vary the power consumption, it would be necessary to shut down the entire module in the fluid treatment area, resulting in relatively uneven fluid treatment.

Referring further to FIG. 16 , it can be seen that the spacing V between rows 210 and 215 is the same as the spacing between rows 220 and 225 . It can also be seen that the spacing Z between rows 215 and 220 is greater than the spacing V. FIG. In some cases, it may be desirable for spacing V and spacing Z to be approximately the same.

Also, there is an interval T between adjacent modules A, B, C and D. It can be seen that the interval T is greater than the interval V. In some cases, it may be desirable for interval V and interval T to be approximately the same.

Also, in some cases it may be desirable for spacing V, spacing Z, and spacing T to be approximately the same.

Accordingly, various modifications of the described embodiments, as well as other embodiments of the invention, will be apparent to persons skilled in the art upon reference to the description.

Furthermore, in some cases it can be advantageous to utilize a fluid treatment zone having a semi-closed cross-section such as that described in the aforementioned Maarschalkerweerd #2 patent to implement the fluid treatment system of the present invention. Also, in some cases it can be advantageous to utilize fluid treatment zones using so-called "hybrid" radiation source modules (e.g. U.S. Patent Application Publication No. 2002/113021 [Traubenberg et al.] or International Publication No. WO 04/000,735 [Traubenberg et al.]) to implement the fluid treatment system of the present invention.

Furthermore, the described embodiments can be modified to include mixing or mixing elements on the channel walls of the fluid handling system and/or radiation source modules, for example in US Pat. Whitby et al], 6,224,759 [Whitby et al] and 6,420,716 [Cormack et al], and one or more of International Publication No. WO 01/93995 [Brunet et al]. Such mixtures or mixing elements (sometimes also referred to in the art as "baffles") can be used in addition to or in place of the use of the so-called boundary light or boundary radiation source assemblies described above. Furthermore, the described embodiments can be modified to Multiple permutations of radiation source assemblies in a hydraulic series are provided. Moreover, the embodiments can be modified to utilize radiation source assemblies that include multiple radiation sources disposed within a protective sleeve (such as is sometimes found in the art referred to as a "bundle of light"). Moreover, the described embodiment in FIGS. 1 and 2 can be modified so that arrays 126 and 128 are arranged in series rather than in a side-by-side relationship (of course the dimensions of the other elements of the fluid handling system will vary accordingly required changes). Accordingly, it is intended that any such modifications or embodiments will be covered by the appended claims.
