Applicants shall make modifications, ‘ovo, assuming Applicant modifies the subject matter name: "A soot wash wastewater treatment system", claims 1-3 do not meet the provisions under Article 22, Article 2 of the Patent lav, and claims 4-8 do not meet the provisions under Article 22, Article 3 of the Patent law 1, claim 1 claiming a soot wash wastewater treatment system, comparative document 1 (CN205151966U) discloses a soot wash wastewater reeycling treatment system: see figure 1 comprising a cooler 1. a conditioning tank 2, a reaction tank, a settling tank, a neutralization tank 5, a filtration device 6, a fresh tank 7, an ultrafiltration devi 8, a reverse osmosis device 9 connected in sequence: the settling pond may be connected back to the conditioning pond 2 via a sludge thickening pond 11, which is also connected to a sludge dewater 12, which is connected back to the conditioning pond 2. The filtration apparatus, ultrafiltration apparatus 8 and reverse osmosis apparatus 9 respectively loop back into the conditioning basin 2; the fresh tank 7 is further piped in connection with a filtration device, respectively an ultrafiltration device 8, forming a backwash line. The reverse osmosis device tail is also provided back to the use tank 10 (ie., the use back system) (see paragraph [0016] of the specification and FIG. 1). In connection with Figure 1, the cooler, the conditioning basin and the pump between the conditioning basin and the first reaction basin of Figure | constitute a cooling system, the reaction basin and the settling basin constitute a mixed settling reaction system, the neutralization basin, the filtration means, the fresh water tank, the ultrafiltration means and the reverse osmosis means constitute a charging system, the sludge pump, the sludge concentration basin, the sludge dewater constitute a sludge treatment system. It follows that comparative document 1 already discloses all the technical features of claim 1 and that the technical solution disclosed by comparative document 1 belongs to the same technical field as the technical solution claimed by claim 1, solves the same technical problems with the same technical means and produces the same technical effects. Accordingly, Claim 1 has no novelty as specified in clause 22, clause 2 of the patent lav 2, respectively, claims 2-3 as further defined in claim I, As can be seen from Figure 1 of Comparative Document 1, the water pump of the cooling system is connected to the conditioning basin and the first reaction basin. Paragraph [0017] of the specification of Comparative Document 1 also discloses that the reaction cell comprises a 210401 2010.2 “Pp The State Intellectual Property Office of People’s Republic of China first reaction cell and a second reaction cell and the settling cell comprises a first settling cell and a second settling cell, Thus, fo the extent that the claims to which they are cited do not have novelty, either claim 2 or 3 has novelty as set forth in clause 22 of the patent law, clause 2. 3. As for claim 4, itis well known in the art that mechani lly stirred reaction cells are typically provided with 3-4 agitators per cel in a mixing apparatus, separated by partitions between the agitators to prevent short circuits (see evidence of common general knowledge 1-Comp. 2: Eco Foundation, Liu et al.. Medium Mine University Press, page 75, 20130131). That is, common general knowledge evidence discloses that a reaction cell is provided with 4 sequentially connected spaces inside, and that a reaction cell provided with 2 connected spaces is also a routine choice made by a person skilled in the art according to processing needs, With respect to claims 5-6, as can be seen from Figure 1 of Comparative Document 1. the sludge thickening basin is in communication with a sludge pump between the first and second clarifier basins, and the sludge dewater is used to carry out the cake afer treatment. Two clarifier sets up 2 drain pumps, sludge basins and supply pumps, and sludge yards are all equipment in the configuration of sludge handling systems conventional in the art, and those skilled in the art will readily select settings based on sludge handling needs. It is also conventional in the art for 2 drain pumps to connect two settling tanks with sludge thickening tanks, respectively. For claim 7. the solution claimed in claim 7 is distinguished by the fact that the medication system of claim 7 further comprises a filtered raw water basin after the neutralization basin, ‘an ultrasonic filter before the reverse osmosis filter, a backwash pump between the quartz sand filter and the activated carbon filter, and a blower connected to the quartz sand filter: comparative document 1 does not disclose some of the above features and the reverse osmosis filter is preceded by an ultrafiltration device and is also provided ‘with a fresh tank and an ultrafiltration production tank. The technical effect that can be achieved on the basis of the above distinguishing features can be determined that the technical problem actually solved by Claim I with respect to Comparative Document 1 is to improve the process of deep treatment of soot washing waste water. As regards the distinguishing features described above, it is easy for a person skilled in the art to sclect the filtration raw basin and the absence of fresh and ultrafiltration production tanks depending on the amount of water treated by the different devices, with the resulting technical effects being expected. Figure | of Comparative Document | discloses that both the quartz sand filter and the activated carbon filter have backwash lines, the provision of a backwash pump in between is also a conventional arrangement of backwash equipment in a backwash process. One skilled in the art would readily envision providing a fan for improved accommodation of few filters. As regards ultrasonic filters Comparative Document 3 (CN101402006A) discloses an ultrasonic filter capable of enhancing water quality treatment and efficiently removing debris such as suspended matter, bacteria, water algae, scale rust and the like in 210401 2010.2 “Pp The State Intellectual Property Office of People’s Republic of China water, which can be used in rural feed water, domestic water, industrial process water, boiler system water and swimming pool water (see page 1, paragraphs 2-3 of the specification). And its role in Comparative Document 2 is the same as its role in the present application to solve its technical problem. all for improving the water quality treatment effect, that is to say that Comp Document 2 gives the implication of using the technical features described above for this Comp Document 1 to solve the technical problem thereof, replacing the ultrafiltration device in Comp Document 1 with an ultrasonic filer when necessary, depending on the treatment needs and the actual treatment effect, easily by a person skilled in the art. Thus, on the basis of Comparative Document |. it is obvious to a person skilled in the art to combine Comparative Document 3 with the above-mentioned conventional options in order to obtain the solution claimed in Claim 7. For claim 8, Figure 1 of Comparative Document 1 discloses that the neutralization basin of the charging system is connected to the second settling basin of the coagulated precipitation reaction system, and the reverse osmosis filter of the charging system is connected to the return water tank Accordingly, to the extent that a claim to which it is dependent is not novel or inventive, neither is claims 4-8 inventive as specified in clause 22, clause 3 of the patent lav This application does not have authorization prospects.
