Abstract

The invention discloses a biological cathode method of degrading organic matters and recycling energy contained in the organic matters. The biological cathode method comprises the following steps: sufficiently mixing organic matters to be treated and inoculation mixed liquor in a proportion of 1:5-1:1 in a single-room film-free reactor; and starting a biological anode and a biological cathode in the single-room film-free reactor under an electrolytic cell state to degrade and recycle the materials. The biological cathode method is operated under liquor electric conductivity of 1.25 mS / cm; current density of an H2-generating biological anode can reach over 2.5 A / m<2-> of the cathode projection area by calculating based on the cathode projection area at a cathode potential of (-)0.9 V (vs SHE); the current density of the optimized biological cathode electrolytic cell can reach over 4.5 A / m<2-> of the cathode projection area; the biological cathode method disclosed by the invention is obviously better than the method in the prior art, so that a technical problem that the biological cathode of an existing microorganism electrolytic cell is difficult to start quickly is solved.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to the field of microbial electrochemistry, in particular to a biocathode method for degrading organic matter and recovering the energy contained therein. Background technique [0002] Biocathode has the characteristics of low investment cost, low operating cost, natural regeneration, and domestication and adaptation. The cathode of the microbial electrolysis cell adopts a biocathode, which can greatly reduce the construction cost and operation cost of the microbial electrolysis cell. At present, there is no mediator-producing H in the world 2 Biocathode research is in its infancy proof-of-concept stage, and the treatment of microbial electrolyzer biocathode has not yet been retrieved. [0003] In 2008, Rozendal et al. first conceptually proved the production of H with a half-cell bioelectrode. 2 Feasibility of biocathodes. First use graphite felt as an electrode to domesticate the mixed bioanode with sodium acetate, and then ...
