Description

Technical Field

[0001] The invention belongs to the field of anaerobic digestion of excess sludge from organic wastewater, and in particular relates to a system and method for increasing methane production from anaerobic digestion of excess sludge by adding rhamnolipid. Background Art

[0002] A large amount of sludge is generated during the water treatment process, and the treatment and disposal of sludge has become an important issue that cannot be avoided. Under the background of sludge reduction, harmlessness and resource utilization, anaerobic digestion technology has become a research hotspot. On the one hand, anaerobic digestion of sludge can reduce the organic content in sludge and promote sludge stability. On the other hand, the biogas produced by digestion can realize energy recovery in sludge through cogeneration of heat and power. The residual sludge is rich in a large amount of organic matter (protein: 40-60%; polysaccharides: 10-20%; fat: 10%). The residual sludge is considered to be a huge renewable resource library and should be reused to recycle resources and energy and reduce the operating costs of sewage treatment plants. On the one hand, anaerobic digestion can convert various organic matter in the residual sludge into renewable bioenergy methane, and at the same time recycle it to replace fossil fuels and reduce carbon emissions. Compared with drying and incineration, anaerobic digestion can reduce 82.69kg CO2 carbon emissions for processing 1 ton of organic solid residue, realizing the resource utilization of residual sludge. On the other hand, anaerobic digestion can reduce the volume and weight of residual sludge and achieve residual sludge reduction.

[0003] However, due to the poor hydrolysis of activated sludge, the methane production of anaerobic digestion of activated sludge is usually unsatisfactory. Surfactants have solubilizing properties, which can change the tension and properties of the mud-water interface, promote the dissociation of excess sludge flocs and the hydrolysis of organic matter. Rhamnolipids are an eco-friendly biosurfactant. Compared with chemical surfactants, they have the advantages of lower toxicity and better biodegradability. Rhamnolipids have a significant solubilizing effect on particulate organic matter in excess sludge flocs. For the release of extracellular polymers induced by rhamnolipids, bacteria can use these dissolved substances to efficiently produce volatile fatty acids.

[0004] Chinese patent application No. 202410518668.9 discloses a method for pretreating excess sludge with pyrosulfite and promoting anaerobic digestion and hydrolysis of excess sludge. The method requires the excess sludge to settle naturally for 4-36 hours, requires a pH range of 8.8-9.2, and a temperature requirement of 20°C-25°C, which is more suitable for excess sludge with a volatile solid concentration of 4.0g / L-12g / L. However, the increase in the sludge pretreatment process will increase the operational complexity of the entire sludge treatment process and increase the operating cost of the sludge treatment process. Chinese patent No. 202410448609.9 discloses a method for promoting methanogenesis by anaerobic digestion of sludge using β-cyclodextrin, which uses β-cyclodextrin to enhance the production of biomethane during anaerobic digestion of excess sludge. The method first requires the anaerobic sludge to be rinsed and resuspended with a PBS buffer solution, and the excess sludge treated with PBS solution and the excess sludge to which β-cyclodextrin is added are configured in a ratio of 1:10. The method has relatively complex processing steps, large engineering workload, and is time-consuming. Frequent use of chemical agents in the process may cause secondary pollution. Therefore, it is of great significance to provide a low-energy, high-load, environmentally friendly, and easy-to-operate sludge anaerobic digestion method. Summary of the invention

[0012] A method for improving the resource utilization of solid waste by adding rhamnolipid in a low-carbon and intelligent manner. The raw material rhamnolipid is pretreated and then sent to a reaction system (2) by a dosing system (1). It is mixed with the pretreated residual sludge for fermentation to produce gas. The gas is collected by a gas collection device (5). The process is reacted by a monitoring system (3). The intelligent control system analyzes and outputs correct program instructions, and the dosing and reaction stages are completed efficiently and safely. The specific steps are as follows:

[0013] Step 1: solid waste is taken, and after pretreatment, it is mixed according to the best ratio to obtain anaerobic fermentation raw materials; rhamnolipid raw materials from a pharmaceutical company are taken and introduced into the automatic dosing device (1). In the dosing device, the raw materials are reflected by the data collection of the temperature sensor and the sampling port A (1-2) and input into the module (4-1). The system judges whether the requirements for entering the reaction system are met according to the temperature and fluidity of the raw materials. If the temperature is lower than 25°C and the fluidity of the raw materials is poor, the signal is input into the output module (4-2), and the driving device A (1-1) is turned on for stirring to increase the fluidity of the rhamnolipid raw materials for easy addition; in order to control the strict anaerobic environment and protect the reactants from oxidation, the intelligent control system (4) introduces nitrogen into the vent (2-4) to remove the air in the reactor, prevent moisture and impurities in the air from entering the reactor, thereby ensuring the purity and stability of the reaction, and opens the sampling port C (5-2) to perform nitrogen purge pretreatment of the reaction system for 3-5 minutes.

[0014] Step 2: Reaction stage: the pre-treated anaerobic fermentation raw materials are fed into the reaction system (2) from the feed filter port (2-3), rhamnolipid is fed from the feed port (2-1), and a pH regulator is fed from the feed port (2-1), and an anaerobic reaction occurs in the reaction system to generate methane gas, which is then transported to a gas collection tank; the pH concentration of the reactor is maintained at 6.5-7.2, the temperature of the reactor is maintained at 32-36°C, and the reactor is stirred at a rotation speed of 150-200 rpm every 4-6 hours, and each stirring lasts for 60-90 minutes.

[0015] Step 3: During the control phase, based on the sensor information and sampling analysis information, the control system performs data analysis and inputs the electrical signal to the input module (4-1), and then inputs the signal to the output module (4-2) remote control device to re-optimize the dosage.

[0020] t1 is the opening time of the pneumatic valve (1-3), in seconds;

[0021] Solid waste includes residual sludge from urban sewage treatment plants, kitchen waste, and livestock and poultry manure from livestock and poultry farms. The pretreatment methods and requirements are as follows:

[0022] Residual sludge: Before use, filter the sludge with a 2.0mm stainless steel mesh to remove large particles, then naturally settle at 4°C for 24 hours, remove the supernatant for concentration, and use a pH regulator to adjust the pH value. The residual sludge after pretreatment should meet the following requirements: total suspended solids (TSS) ≤ 30.00g / L, volatile suspended solids (VSS) ≤ 15.00g / L; pH concentration 6.5-7.2;

[0023] Food waste: Use a filter press to crush it into slurry, and use a pH adjuster to adjust the pH value. The pretreated food waste should meet the following requirements: total suspended solids (TSS) concentration is 15.00-20.00g / L, volatile suspended solids (VSS) concentration is 10.00-15.00g / L; pH concentration is 6.0-6.5;

[0024] Livestock and poultry manure: Use a stainless steel screen to filter the sludge to remove large particles, and use a pH regulator to adjust the pH value. The pretreated kitchen waste should meet the following requirements: the volatile suspended solids (VSS) concentration is 25-35g / L, and the pH concentration is 7.0-8.0.

[0025] Before the formal operation, the optimal addition ratio of the three solid wastes is first determined through pre-operation. The specific steps are as follows:

[0026] The addition ratio of excess sludge is m1, the addition ratio of food waste is m2, and the addition ratio of livestock and poultry manure is m3. The three satisfy m1+m2+m3=1. The central composite design (CCD) is used to determine the optimal ratio of m1, m2 and m3. The five levels of m1, m2 and m3 addition are set to 0, 0.2, 0.4, 0.6 and 0.8 respectively. The addition ratio matrix used in the pre-run is shown in the following table:

[0027]

[0028] Among them, batches 1-3 are vertex experiments, batches 4-6 are edge midpoint experiments, batch 7 is center point experiments, and batches 8-12 are other experimental points.

[0030] In step 1, during the rhamnolipid pretreatment process, when the temperature monitored by the temperature sensor A (3-1) is lower than 25°C, the intelligent control system (4) turns on the driving device A (1-1) for stirring, thereby increasing the fluidity of the rhamnolipid raw material for easy addition; the method for maintaining the anaerobic environment of the fermentation reactor is to introduce nitrogen into the fermentation reactor for 10 to 20 minutes.

[0031] In step 2, the dosage of rhamnolipid in the reaction stage is adjusted in real time according to the methane production, and the specific adjustment method is:

[0032] 1) From the beginning of the reaction, the monitoring system (3) monitors the gas production and methane concentration in the gas collection barrel (5) in real time every day. On the tth day, the hourly gas production is obtained by monitoring Among them, t is the number of days of reaction; at the same time, the concentration of methane in the gas is monitored every hour. Calculate the gas production G on day t t :

[0033]

[0034] The actual cumulative gas production on the tth day is obtained by statistics.

[0035]

[0036] 2) Simultaneously monitor the system (3) for the cumulative gas production from the start of the reaction to day t-1 The modified Gompertz equation was used to simulate the methane production.

[0037]

[0038] The maximum methanogenesis rate on day t-1 is obtained by fitting and maximum methane production potential And calculate the estimated cumulative gas production on day t based on the fitting results Calculate the ratio of actual cumulative gas production to expected cumulative gas production In addition, the cumulative gas production from the start of the reaction to the tth day The modified Gompertz equation was also used to simulate the maximum methanogenesis rate on day t. and maximum methane production potential

[0039] 3) The dosing system corrects the dosage of rhamnolipid on day t-1 to obtain the dosage on day t

[0040]

[0041] Where, X t , X t-1 are the dosages of rhamnolipid on day t and day t-1, respectively;

[0042] k1 is the gas production fitting correction coefficient, k2 is the methane rate correction coefficient, and k3 is the methane production potential correction coefficient; where the value of k1 satisfies:

[0043]

[0044] The reaction system (2) modifies the amount of rhamnolipid added from the feed port (2-1) according to the calculation results. Intelligent control system simulates methane production Y X Relationship between different rhamnolipid dosages and days:

[0045] Y X =∫0 T A X T 2 +B X T+C X

[0046] Wherein, X is the dosage of rhamnolipid.

[0047] Preferably, the fermentation days T should satisfy 32d≤T≤36d;

[0048] The intelligent control system simulates the relationship between hydrogen production Y2 and rhamnolipid dosage X:

[0049] Y2=∫0 T B2X+C2

[0050] The fermentation days T should satisfy 2d≤T≤14d; the coefficient is 1.5≤B2≤2.0.

[0051] The gas content is detected by using an Agilent 7820A gas chromatograph, and the intelligent control system selects the optimal yield and controls the optimal dosage of rhamnolipid through data simulation.

[0052] In particular, to maintain system safety, the detection control procedures are as follows:

[0053]

[0054] When P ≥ 0.85P m When P≥0.95Pm, the intelligent control system early warning module (4-3) remotely closes the pneumatic valve (1-3), the flow pump (1-4) and the blower (2-7) to ensure the safety of the reaction.

[0055] Among them, P m It is the maximum internal pressure that the gas collecting tank can withstand;

[0056] σ is the allowable stress of the material, which can be determined based on the yield strength and safety factor of the material;

[0057] ν is the Poisson’s ratio of the material;

[0058] r is the inner radius of the gas collecting tank or reaction system.

[0059] After each anaerobic digestion, the intelligent control system records the fitting parameter A of methane production and days. X , B X , C X , and compared with the previous record, the initial dosage X0 of the next rhamnolipid is corrected. The specific process is as follows:

[0060] After the nth reaction, the intelligent control system obtains the methane production dynamic parameters of this reaction based on the fitting results. and And compared with the results of the previous n-1 times, we get:

[0061]

[0064]

[0065] Beneficial effects: The present invention promotes the methanogenesis process of the excess sludge by adding rhamnolipids to the excess sludge. The research results provide a new way to optimize the use of rhamnolipids in anaerobic digestion of excess sludge composed of sewage plants, kitchen waste and livestock and poultry manure.
