The invention discloses a water inlet device and a water inlet method for an
anaerobic reactor. Most of
anaerobic bacteria are strictly
anaerobic bacteria which are extremely sensitive to
oxygen; and however, in practice, inlet water is required to be changed every day or
every other day, so that controlling dissolved
oxygen in the inlet water of the reactor to a relatively low level becomes very important. The water inlet device consists of three parts, namely a water inlet
barrel, a water inlet
barrel cover and a gas producing main body, wherein a feed port is formed in the water inlet
barrel cover; the water inlet barrel cover is connected with the gas producing main body through a connecting component; the gas producing main body is fixed through the connecting component and a
siphon; a
solid material is fed from the feed port, a liquid material is fed through the
siphon, and after gas-liquid mixing, a gas producing reaction can be performed; and the
solid material is
carbonate or
bicarbonate, the liquid material is acid, and produced gas is CO2 which forms a CO2
atmosphere. Through the water inlet device and the water inlet method, continuous
dissolution of
oxygen in air into the inlet water can be simply and effectively prevented, so that the low-oxygen state of the inlet water is kept; besides, the produced CO2 can supplement an inorganic
carbon source required by autotrophic
bacteria, so that the growth of anaerobic autotrophic
bacteria and stable operation of the
anaerobic reactor are facilitated.
