Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] The invention relates to the technical field of wastewater treatment, and in particular to a method for cleaning and regenerating a failed MBR membrane component. Background Art
[0002] Membrane bioreactor (MBR) is a sewage treatment process that combines membrane separation technology with traditional activated sludge method. It has the characteristics of good effluent quality, strong resistance to water quality shock load, small footprint and low sludge production. In recent years, it has been widely used in sewage treatment fields such as urban sewage and industrial wastewater. However, the inevitable membrane pollution problem has restricted the development of MBR. With the continuous operation of MBR, sludge, colloidal particles and soluble macromolecular organic matter in the reactor will be retained by the membrane components. They are adsorbed and deposited on the membrane surface or in the membrane pores, causing the membrane pore size to become smaller or blocked, resulting in a decrease in membrane flux (J) and an increase in transmembrane pressure difference (TMP), affecting the stable operation of MBR.
[0003] The causes of membrane component contamination can be divided into concentration polarization, membrane pore blockage and membrane surface adsorption and deposition. Concentration polarization is the process in which the mixed liquid flows to the membrane surface, and macromolecular substances and solid particles are constantly adsorbed and deposited on the membrane surface, causing the solute concentration near the membrane surface to be higher than the concentration of the mixed liquid, and forming a stable concentration decreasing zone at a certain thickness on the membrane surface. Pollutants are adsorbed and deposited outside and inside the membrane pore channel, causing different degrees of membrane pore blockage. At the same time, various pollutants are adsorbed and deposited on the membrane surface to form filter cake layers, including mud cake layers, gel layers and inorganic pollution layers.
[0004] In addition to the measures to control membrane fouling used in MBR operation, membrane cleaning technology is a common means to alleviate membrane fouling problems and maintain good performance of membrane components. From the perspective of cleaning operations, membrane cleaning can be divided into online maintenance cleaning and offline recovery cleaning. Among them, online maintenance cleaning is simple to operate and can improve the use status of membrane components in a short time, but it is difficult to remove deep pollutants, and the surface of the membrane components is prone to fouling again. Offline recovery cleaning usually uses high-concentration cleaning agents, which has a good membrane flux recovery effect and can maintain good performance of membrane components for a long time. On the other hand, from the perspective of cleaning methods, membrane cleaning is mainly divided into physical cleaning and chemical cleaning. Physical cleaning is a method that uses fluid dynamics to make pollutants leave the membrane material. It usually includes hydraulic cleaning, air aeration cleaning, ultrasonic cleaning, etc., which is simple to operate and will not cause secondary pollution. The loose mud cake layer can be removed by physical cleaning and is generally considered to be reversible dirt; if the mud cake layer is compacted and becomes dense, physical cleaning cannot remove it, it is considered to be irreversible dirt and needs to be further removed by chemical cleaning. Chemical cleaning is the use of chemical reagents to increase the electrostatic repulsion between pollutants and membrane materials, or chemical reagents react with membrane pollutants, so that pollutants leave the membrane material and precipitate with the solution, thereby restoring membrane flux and effectively alleviating membrane pollution. Common reagents include acids, alkalis, oxidants, surfactants, and metal chelators. Chemical cleaning can remove irreversible dirt such as dense mud cake layers, gel layers, and inorganic pollution layers.
[0005] Enzyme preparations have the characteristics of high specificity, selectivity, biodegradability and environmental friendliness. They perform well in the biocatalytic conversion of various water-soluble compounds and can destroy the fouling layer on the membrane surface under mild reaction conditions. Commonly used enzymes include proteases, amylases, lipases and cellulases. Enzyme cleaning can effectively remove stubborn dirt such as proteins and polysaccharides. Studies have shown that when using too much concentration of enzyme cleaning solution or non-optimal cleaning time, the enzyme will be deposited on the membrane surface, resulting in reduced cleaning efficiency and the possibility of re-contamination of the membrane. Therefore, it is very important to control the enzyme cleaning conditions and the cleaning order.
[0006] The types of MBR membrane components mainly include hollow fiber membranes, flat membranes, tubular membranes and ceramic membranes. Among them, hollow fiber membranes have the advantages of high flux, high retention rate, wear resistance, corrosion resistance, etc., but they are easy to be blocked and broken, and have a relatively short service life. After the hollow fiber membrane is polluted, the membrane filaments are easily entangled to form mud, resulting in a sharp drop in membrane flux and relatively difficult cleaning. Flat membranes have better anti-pollution performance, strong mechanical stability, and are easy to clean and maintain. After being polluted, the flat membrane can be cleaned by online cleaning or by removing and flushing a single membrane sheet, and the cleaning difficulty is relatively low.
[0007] Existing conventional cleaning methods can partially restore the flux of failed membrane components. However, in most cases, conventional methods have limited cleaning capabilities for failed membrane components. In order to obtain better cleaning effects, a cleaning and regeneration method for failed MBR membrane components is sought to gradually and reasonably remove pollutants and further improve cleaning efficiency, which has positive significance for extending the service life of membrane components and reducing the operation and maintenance costs of MBR.
