Embodiment 1

[0016] From the food waste collected from a certain university canteen in Beijing, first utilize the high-speed centrifuge 9 to dehydrate the food waste 1 collected, so that the water content of the food waste 1 is reduced to 45% (w / w). Then use a 500L steam explosion tank 10 to perform steam explosion treatment on the dehydrated kitchen waste 3, the steam explosion conditions are: steam pressure 1.20MPa, steam explosion pressure maintenance time is 180 seconds. After the steam explosion treatment, the liquefaction phenomenon of the food waste is obvious, and the starch and cellulose raw materials in the food waste are obviously degraded, which is very beneficial to the subsequent anaerobic fermentation. The food waste 4 after the steam explosion treatment is mixed with the sludge of the urban sewage treatment plant according to the ratio (weight ratio) of 1:0.2 and then sent into the continuous solid-state fermentation reaction tower 13 for anaerobic fermentation. The material...

Embodiment 2

[0018] From the food waste collected from a certain university canteen in Beijing, the food waste 1 collected by high-speed centrifuge 9 is firstly dehydrated to reduce the water content of the food waste 1 to 40% (w / w). Then use a 1000L steam explosion tank 10 to perform steam explosion treatment on the dehydrated kitchen waste 3, the steam explosion conditions are: steam pressure 2MPa, steam explosion pressure maintenance time is 60 seconds. After the steam explosion treatment, the liquefaction phenomenon of the food waste is obvious, and the starch and cellulose raw materials in the food waste are obviously degraded, which is very beneficial to the subsequent anaerobic fermentation. The food waste 4 after the steam explosion treatment is mixed with the sludge of the urban sewage treatment plant according to the ratio (weight ratio) of 1:0.1 and then sent to the continuous solid-state fermentation reaction tower 13 for anaerobic fermentation. The material is fed from the scre...

Abstract

The invention discloses a method for producing hydrogen and methane through continuous solid state fermentation of kitchen garbage, which comprises the following steps of: (1) dewatering kitchen garbage; (2) performing steam explosion; (3) mixing sludge and initiating continuous solid state fermentation; (4) separately feeding the kitchen garbage after fermentation is initiated, and simultaneously inoculating newly fed kitchen garbage subjected to steam explosion with bottom fermentation residue on the top; (5) agitating the materials by using circulating wind in the fermentation process; (6) automatically extracting and separating the materials when the gas pressure is higher than 0.1 MPa; and (7) further drying the fermented residue to be used as an organic fertilizer. The invention has the advantages of treating the kitchen garbage through steam explosion, increasing the degradation rate of the raw materials, producing hydrogen and methane through solid state fermentation, avoiding subsequent waste water treatment and improving efficiency by using the continuous fermentation process.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention belongs to waste resource utilization technology, in particular to a method for producing hydrogen and methane by continuous solid-state fermentation of kitchen waste. Background technique [0002] Food waste refers to the food waste generated in the daily life of residents and food processing. The sources are mainly concentrated in hotels, food factories, schools, governments, scientific research institutions, etc., and are an important part of urban domestic waste. The main components of food waste include rice and flour food residues, vegetables, animal and vegetable oils, meat and bones, etc. From the chemical composition, there are starch, cellulose, protein, lipids and inorganic salts. [0003] In recent years, with the improvement of the living standards of urban people in our country, the amount of food waste generated has increased rapidly. Statistics from the Institute of Solid Waste Pollution Control and Recycling of the Envir...
