Diffuser apparatus, and diffuser apparatus running method
A diffuser apparatus which has fine pores is capable of achieving a high oxygen transfer efficiency and rarely becoming clogged so that the apparatus can be operated stably over a prolonged period. The diffuser apparatus includes: an aeration plate that is disposed in an aeration tank in order to release pressurized air, fed from a diffusing air feed pipe, as air bubbles from fine pores formed in an aeration plate surface; blow water feeder for feeding blow water into the diffusing air feed pipe; and an inserted pipe for discharging the blow water, fed into the diffusing air feed pipe, from the aeration plate.
1. A diffuser apparatus, comprising:
an aeration plate that is disposed in an aeration tank in order to release pressurized air, fed from a diffusing air feed pipe, as air bubbles from fine pores formed in an aeration plate surface;
blow water feeding means for feeding blow water into said diffusing air feed pipe against an air pressure of said diffusing air feed pipe; and
discharging means for discharging said blow water, fed into said diffusing air feed pipe, from said aeration plate
wherein said discharging means is constituted by an inserted pipe, an upper end of which communicates with said aeration plate and a lower end of which is inserted into said diffusing air feed pipe, and
wherein said diffusing air and said blow water are fed to said aeration plate through said inserted pipe by feeding said blow water to said diffusing air feed pipe by said blow water feeding means.
2. The diffuser apparatus according to claim 1 , wherein a lower end surface of said inserted pipe has an inclined suction surface through which said blow water is suctioned.
3. The diffuser apparatus according to claim 1 , wherein an air hole is provided in a pipe wall of said inserted pipe.
4. The diffuser apparatus according to claim 2 , wherein an air hole is provided in a pipe wall of said inserted pipe.
5. The diffuser apparatus according to claim 1 , further comprising a check valve between said inserted pipe and said aeration plate surface of said aeration plate.
6. The diffuser apparatus according to claim 2 , further comprising a check valve between said inserted pipe and said aeration plate surface of said aeration plate.
7. The diffuser apparatus according to claim 1 , further comprising a blow-off pipe, one end of which is connected to said diffusing air feed pipe and another end of which is submerged in said aeration tank, thereby regulating internal pressure of said diffusing air feed pipe.
8. The diffuser apparatus according to claim 2 , further comprising a blow-off pipe, one end of which is connected to said diffusing air feed pipe and another end of which is submerged in said aeration tank, thereby regulating internal pressure of said diffusing air feed pipe.
9. The diffuser apparatus according to claim 5 , further comprising a blow-off pipe, one end of which is connected to said diffusing air feed pipe and another end of which is submerged in said aeration tank, thereby regulating internal pressure of said diffusing air feed pipe.
10. The diffuser apparatus according to claim 6 , further comprising a blow-off pipe, one end of which is connected to said diffusing air feed pipe and another end of which is submerged in said aeration tank, thereby regulating internal pressure of said diffusing air feed pipe.
