Abstract

Chromium ions and other heavy metals discarded from major industries, if left unchecked, will make their way into waterways and may contaminate food crops, which can cause various chronic and acute health problems. As such, the Department of Science and Technology - Philippine Nuclear Research Institute (DOST-PNRI) developed radiation-grafted wastewater filters that selectively collect trivalent chromium ions from wastewater. To house these filters with the appropriate flow characteristics, column enclosures suitable for rapid prototyping via additive manufacturing, were designed and simulated. The column has two main components: the main chamber, which houses the filter; and an inner core, where the filter fabric is wound, and which evenly distributes the water flow along its length. Different core slit configurations were presented, giving emphasis on the flow uniformity, with the aim of maximizing the filter life.

不同流量配置的3d打印废水过滤柱原型设计与仿真

从主要工业中丢弃的铬离子和其他重金属，如果不加以控制，将进入水道，并可能污染粮食作物，这可能导致各种慢性和急性健康问题。因此，科技部-菲律宾核研究所(DOST-PNRI)开发了辐射接枝废水过滤器，可以选择性地从废水中收集三价铬离子。为了使这些过滤器具有适当的流动特性，设计并模拟了适用于通过增材制造快速成型的柱罩。该柱有两个主要组成部分:主室，其中容纳过滤器;和一个内芯，其中过滤织物缠绕，并均匀分布沿其长度的水流。提出了不同的滤芯狭缝结构，强调流动均匀性，以最大限度地提高滤芯寿命。
