Embodiment 1

[0019] The test device used in the present invention is shown in Figure 1. The biological hydrogen production reaction device mainly includes a constant temperature water bath 1, a reactor 2, a gas measuring tube 4 and a balance bottle 6. Place the reactor 2 in the constant temperature water bath 1, the outlet of the reactor is connected to one end of the air guide tube 3, the other end of the air guide tube 3 is connected to the measuring air tube 4, and the measuring air tube 4 passes through the air guiding tube and the balance placed on the iron stand 5 Bottle 6 is connected.

[0020] When preparing hydrogen, the test sludge was taken from the sludge dehydration workshop of a sewage treatment plant in Guangdong. According to the percentage of types, its main physical and chemical properties are as follows: moisture content 74.74%, volatile solid content 64.88% (the moisture content of the sludge is The sludge was dried at 105°C, obtained by calculating the ratio of the amo...

Embodiment 2

[0022] The test sludge was taken from the sludge dehydration workshop of a sewage treatment plant in Guangdong. According to the percentage of species, its main physical and chemical properties are as follows: moisture content 73.56%, volatile solid content 63.61%, organic waste was taken from a campus vegetable market in Guangdong, Its main features are as follows: moisture content 89.20%, volatile solid content 75.22%. Mix the sludge and organic waste uniformly in a mass ratio of 0.5:1, then add distilled water to dissolve the mixture of sludge and organic waste and adjust its concentration to 40g / L. As shown in Figure 3, the biohydrogen system began to produce hydrogen from the culture time of 6 hours, and the cumulative hydrogen production reached the maximum at 24 hours, which was 41.8 mL.

Embodiment 3

[0024] The test sludge was taken from the sludge dehydration workshop of a paper mill in Guangdong. According to the percentage of species, its main physical and chemical properties are as follows: moisture content 72.42%, volatile solid content 62.57%, organic waste was taken from a campus restaurant in Guangdong, its main characteristics As follows: moisture content 88.31%, volatile solid content 74.58%. Mix the sludge and organic waste uniformly in a mass ratio of 1.5:1, then add distilled water to dissolve the mixture of sludge and organic waste and adjust its concentration to 30g / L. As shown in Figure 3, the biohydrogen system began to produce hydrogen from the incubation time of 12 hours. And the cumulative hydrogen production reached the maximum in 48 hours, which was 19.1 mL. It shows that in an anaerobic environment, the anaerobic biological hydrogen production reactor can successfully realize the mixed fermentation of sludge and organic waste to produce hydrogen, an...

Abstract

The invention discloses a biological process for producing hydrogen by the mixed sludge and organic refuse. With the process, the sludge which contains nutrient elements of nitrogen, phosphorus, potassium and the like and the organic refuse are evenly mixed according the proportion of 0.5-1.5: 1 (w / w), and nutrient solution which contains trace elements, including Ca, Mg, Zn and Fe, which are the essential elements for the growth of anaerobe at the volumetric ratio of 30-40: 1 of the mixed sludge and organic refuse to substrate, and then the mixed material is introduced to an enclosure mixing hydrogen production device, the carbohydrate in the mixing material is decomposed to be H2, low molecular organic acids and alcohol materials by the anaerobe existed in the mixed material, and the temperature for the fermentation of the anaerobe is controlled to be 37+- 1 DEG C. The invention can successfully realize the bio-hydrogen production under the strictly anaerobic environment and has important engineering value.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention belongs to the technical field of environmental protection and relates to a method for biological hydrogen production, in particular to a method for biological hydrogen production by mixing sludge and organic waste. Background technique [0002] The research on modern biohydrogen production technology began when the energy crisis occurred in the 1970s. In the 1990s, because of the further understanding of the greenhouse effect, biohydrogen production as a sustainable industrial technology was put on the research and application agenda again. According to the different microorganisms that play a role in the hydrogen production process, biological hydrogen production can be divided into photobiological hydrogen production and anaerobic fermentation biological hydrogen production. The research on biological hydrogen production by anaerobic fermentation began in the mid-1990s, but due to the small number of institutions participating in the r...
