Description

Technical Field

[0001] This invention relates to the field of wastewater treatment technology, and in particular to a method for deep denitrification of sulfur and iron synergistic co-culture in secondary biological effluent. Background Technology

[0002] The anoxic-aerobic (AO) combined process is a commonly used method for biological nitrogen removal from wastewater. However, the aerobic nitrification effluent contains a certain amount of nitrate, resulting in a certain concentration of NO3 in the secondary biological treatment effluent. - Although the Class A standard of the "Discharge Standard of Pollutants for Urban Wastewater Treatment Plants" sets the TN concentration limit at 15 mg / L, the "Environmental Quality Standard for Surface Water" (Class V) sets the TN limit at only 2 mg / L. Therefore, the discharge of secondary biological effluent from wastewater treatment plants into surface water bodies still poses a risk of eutrophication. To improve surface water quality and eliminate the risk of eutrophication, deep denitrification of the secondary biological effluent is necessary to further reduce nitrogen entering the aquatic environment.

[0003] After biological treatment at the wastewater treatment plant, the secondary biological effluent has a low concentration of bioavailable carbon sources, classifying it as oligotrophic water. Traditional heterotrophic denitrification methods relying on the addition of organic carbon sources are costly to operate; excessive carbon source addition can increase the organic matter content in the final effluent, and heterotrophic denitrification produces a large amount of sludge. Compared to heterotrophic denitrification, autotrophic denitrification mediated by sulfur- and iron-autotrophic bacteria can utilize low-valence sulfur (S₂O₃). 0 S 2- S2O3 2- (etc.) and low-valence iron (Fe) 0 Fe 2+ Inorganic substances such as NO3- can act as electron donors to convert NO3- into electrons. - -N is reduced to N2, which eliminates the need for an external organic carbon source when used for denitrification of low C / N wastewater. It also has the advantages of low operating cost, high denitrification efficiency and low sludge production, and has become the mainstream research direction for efficient denitrification of low C / N wastewater.

[0004] Single-sulfur autotrophic denitrification has high nitrogen removal efficiency, based on S2O3. 2- Autotrophic denitrification not only enables the liquid addition of sulfur electron donors, but also avoids the inconvenience of using solid SO (hazardous materials) and S 2- The drawback is the easy generation of H2S, but the acid production during the reaction process easily leads to an acidic pH in the effluent. Based on Fe 0 / Fe 2+ Iron-autotrophic denitrification can also achieve high nitrogen removal efficiency, but it produces alkali during the treatment process and easily forms ferric iron compounds that adhere to and coat the sludge and Fe. 0 The surface reduces reaction efficiency.

[0005] Therefore, the skilled in the art comprehensively combines the characteristics of sulfur and iron autotrophic denitrification in research and development, so that the sulfur and iron combined autotrophic denitrification can avoid the shortcomings of single use, and realize the acid-base neutralization and mutual promotion in the reaction process. SUMMARY

[0006] The task of the present application is to provide a secondary biochemical effluent sulfur-iron synergistic mixed culture denitrification deep denitrification method, based on the principle of sulfur-iron synergistic autotrophic and mixed culture denitrification, a combined S2O3 2- , Fe 0 and pyrite (FeS2) secondary biochemical effluent mixed culture deep denitrification method for sewage treatment plant is proposed, a proper amount of organic carbon source and sulfur source is continuously added to the secondary biochemical effluent, mixed culture denitrification is carried out to maintain the acid-base balance in water, and the abundance of denitrifying bacteria is improved, so that the carbon source consumption and sludge yield in the denitrification process can be effectively reduced. 2- The single sulfur autotrophic denitrification based on S2O3 0 produces acid in the reaction process, which easily leads to acidic effluent pH, and the iron autotrophic denitrification based on Fe 2+ / Fe 0 produces base in the treatment process, which easily forms trivalent iron compounds and is attached and wrapped on the sludge and Fe
