Description

Technical Field

[0001] The invention relates to the technical field of comprehensive utilization of sludge treatment, and in particular to a method and a device for producing nutrient soil by utilizing sludge from a municipal sewage treatment plant. Background Art

[0002] Domestic sewage is wastewater discharged from residents' daily lives, mainly from residential buildings and public buildings, such as residences, offices, schools, hospitals, shops, public places and toilets of industrial enterprises. The pollutants contained in domestic sewage are mainly organic matter and a large number of pathogenic microorganisms. The organic matter in domestic sewage is extremely unstable and easily decomposes to produce a foul odor. Bacteria and pathogens multiply in large numbers with organic matter in domestic sewage as nutrition, which can lead to the spread of infectious diseases. Therefore, domestic sewage must be treated before discharge. With the rapid improvement of urban sewage treatment capacity, the amount of sludge has also increased significantly. The continuous output of sludge every day cannot be digested in time. A large amount of untreated sludge is randomly piled up, which is easy to cause new secondary pollution to the environment.

[0003] At present, the main methods for treating and disposing urban sludge include incineration, landfill, land utilization and composting. The incineration method has complex technology and equipment, high energy consumption, high investment, and is accompanied by air pollution problems. The landfill method is limited by land use and constantly threatens and pollutes the surrounding environment and groundwater. Land utilization and composting have the problem that the sludge discharged from the sewage treatment plant has a high water content, and it is difficult to reduce the water content by dehydration. A large amount of auxiliary materials need to be added, and the treatment cost is high.

Due to the small displacement of the diaphragm, the service life of the membrane plate is short, and the replacement is frequent and the cost is high. The sludge moisture content after filtration by the elastic filter press device is less than 20% lower than that of the sludge after filtration by the membrane filter press. The secondary filtration is completely compressed by the hydraulic cylinder, and the elastic filter plate contracts to compress the sludge in the filter chamber.

Through the design and application of elastic filter press plates, the filter press cavity can be further compressed, and the moisture in the sludge in the cavity can be further squeezed out, which better improves the sludge dehydration effect and better solves the shortcomings of traditional filter presses such as low pressure and poor dehydration effect.

[0040] Example 2

[0041] The difference from Example 1 is that YM bacteria is also added to the adjustment tank 31, and the amount of YM bacteria added is 1 kg for one ton of solid material.

[0044] The working principle of the elastic filter press device is as follows: the mud delivery pipe 5 is connected to the bottom of the regulating tank 31, the hydraulic control system works, the piston shafts of the hydraulic cylinders 3 on both sides are retracted, and the push plate 12 is pulled to move forward with the roller 9 as the support point, and the multiple elastic filter press plates 8 are pushed together. The frontmost elastic filter press plate 8 is fitted with the feed plate 7, and the pressure is about 10Mpa. A filter press chamber is formed between the boss 23 of the frontmost elastic filter press plate 8 and the feed plate 7, and a filter press chamber is also formed between the boss 23 of the rear elastic filter press plate 8 and the back of the filter press plate body 20 of the front elastic filter press plate 8. The mud pump 4 The sludge is pumped from the feed channel 28 of the feed plate 7 into the filter press chamber, and the first-level filtration is performed by the pumping pressure. The filtrate passes through the gap between the sealing frame 15 and the boss 23 through the filter cloth 14 and drips downward. When the pumping pressure reaches the set value, the mud pump 4 is stopped, and the hydraulic control system works again to control the piston shaft of the hydraulic cylinder 5 to continue to retract, so that the push plate 12 continues to push the elastic filter press plate 8 forward, the compression spring 16 is squeezed, and the boss 23 moves forward and moves relative to the sealing frame 15, thereby pressing the sludge in the filter press chamber and realizing secondary filtration to squeeze out more water. The maximum pressure is up to 20Mpa. After the secondary filtration is completed, the hydraulic control system works to control the hydraulic cylinder 5 to work, push the push plate 12 to separate from the elastic filter press plate 12, and the compression spring 16 drives the sealing frame 15 to reset. Due to the action of the linkage cable 11, multiple elastic filter press plates 12 are also separated at once, and the frontmost elastic filter press plate 12 is separated from the feed plate 7. The sludge filter cake falls down and is collected, that is, a batch of sludge filtration is completed. The moisture content of the sludge after filtration and dehydration is less than 60%, and it is transported to the sludge fertilizer treatment. Repeat the above steps to filter the next batch of sludge.

[0045] A Guangxi Environmental Protection Technology Co., Ltd. used a plate and frame filter press, a diaphragm filter press and the elastic filter press device used in this application to conduct trial filtration operations. The filtration lasted for 15 minutes, the pumping pressure was 1.3Mpa, and the moisture content of the filter mud was recorded in the following table.

One field was planted after laying nutrient soil, and the other field was not laid with nutrient soil. The amount of fertilizer, sowing amount and management method were the same. The results obtained are recorded in the following table.
