Abstract
Description
technical field
[0001] The invention belongs to the technical field of sludge treatment and resource utilization, and relates to a method for simultaneously adding zero-valent iron and activated carbon to strengthen anaerobic digestion of excess sludge to produce methane. Background technique
[0002] Due to the increase in the number of urban sewage plants and the increase in the amount of sewage treatment, the amount of surplus sludge produced by the activated sludge process is also increasing. The total amount of dry sludge in EU countries has reached more than 10 million tons per year. In China, more than 11.2 million tons of dewatered sludge are produced every year, and nearly 80% of them have not been stably treated, and the annual growth rate is greater than 10%. The excess sludge produced contains a large amount of organic matter such as protein, polysaccharide, etc. Direct discharge will not only cause secondary pollution of the environment, but also cause a large a...
