Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] The present invention relates to the technical field of water purification, and in particular to a method for removing nitrate from water using a membrane biofilm reactor based on sulphur-hydrogen synergistic denitrification. Background Art
[0002] Nitrate removal technologies for water bodies can be mainly divided into physical and chemical methods and biochemical methods. Among them, microbial denitrification technology has many advantages such as low operating costs, relatively simple operation and management, and environmental friendliness, and has been widely favored. In recent years, a hydrogen-based membrane biofilm reactor (H2-MBfR) has been developed. It uses hollow fiber membranes to diffuse H2 without bubbles, combined with biofilm autotrophic denitrification technology. It has the characteristics of being clean and non-toxic, requiring no external organic carbon source, generating no secondary pollutants, and leaving no excess sludge. It is considered to be a NO3 removal technology with great development prospects. - Degradation technology.
[0003] However, this technology currently faces a key technical problem in the process of experimental research and engineering practice, namely, water vapor and N2 outside the hollow fiber membrane will diffuse into the hollow fiber membrane cavity due to osmotic pressure (this phenomenon is called reverse diffusion). Some scholars have shown that (Martin KJ et al., Bioresource Technol. , 2012, 122: 83-94; Jiang et al. Water , 2020, 12: 3196), due to the reverse diffusion effect, the H2 partial pressure or concentration in the hollow fiber membrane cavity will gradually decrease with the increase of the distance from the gas supply end, resulting in the non-denitrification active area outside the biofilm gradually expanding with the increase of the gas supply distance. There may be a large number of outer biofilms at the farthest distance from the gas supply end that have no denitrification activity due to the inability to obtain H2, thereby reducing the reactor's ability to remove pollutants. Summary of the Invention
[0004] The purpose of the present invention is to provide a method for removing nitrate from water by using a membrane biofilm reactor based on sulphur-hydrogen synergistic denitrification. When the membrane biofilm based on sulphur-hydrogen synergistic denitrification is used to purify nitrate-containing water bodies, the denitrification activity of the outer biofilm of H2-MBfR can be enhanced, and the denitrification efficiency of the membrane biofilm reactor for NO3 in water bodies can be effectively improved. - removal performance.

[0043] This example uses a membrane biofilm reactor to degrade nitrate, the most typical oxidizing pollutant in water. The specific steps are as follows:
[0044] (1) According to Figure 1 A membrane biofilm reactor was constructed, wherein the main reaction tank 4 was processed from a circular glass tube with an inner diameter of 22 mm and a tube length of 50 cm. The first hollow fiber membrane assembly in the main reaction tank 4 contained 32 hollow fiber membrane filaments, and the hollow fiber membrane filaments were made of commercially available hydrophobic polypropylene material with a membrane pore size of 0.02~0.2 μm, an inner diameter of 400~500 μm, and an outer diameter of 500~600 μm; the two ends of the first hollow fiber membrane assembly were respectively bonded to the sleeve with epoxy resin glue, and then the sleeve was bonded to the opening on the wall of the main reaction tank 4 with epoxy resin glue to fix the first hollow fiber membrane assembly; the auxiliary reaction tank 5 was processed from a circular glass tube with an inner diameter of 20 mm and a tube length of 50 cm.

[0045] (2) Start-up and acclimation of membrane biofilm reactor: 40 mL of anoxic tank sludge from Qilidian Wastewater Treatment Plant in Guilin, Guangxi was inoculated into the membrane biofilm reactor (the inoculation volume was 10% of the total effective volume of the reactor); the first simulated wastewater was prepared, and the components of the first simulated wastewater included: 20 mgN / L NaNO3, 80 mg / L NaHCO3 (as an inorganic carbon source for microbial growth), 128 mg / L KH2PO4 and 434 mg / L Na2HPO4 (as a buffer solution to control the pH value of the system), 1 mg / L MgCl2·6H2O, 1 mg / L FeSO4·7H2O, 1 mg / L CaCl2·6H2O, 0.013 mg / L ZnSO4·7H2O, 0.038 mg / L H3BO3, 0.001 mg / L CuCl2·2H2O, 0.004 0.004 mg / L of Na2MoO4·2H2O, 0.004 mg / L of MnCl2·4H2O, 0.025 mg / L of CoCl2·6H2O, 0.001 mg / L of NiCl2·6H2O, and 0.004 mg / L of Na2SeO3 (to provide trace elements required for microbial growth); start the water inlet pump 2, and let the first simulated wastewater prepared artificially in the raw water tank 1 enter the bottom of the main reaction tank 4 through the water inlet pipe, and set the flow rate of the water inlet pump 2 to 0.63 mL / min; at the same time, start the reflux pump 3, and set the flow rate of the reflux pump 3 to 100 mL / min; and set the supply pressure of the H2 bottle 6 to 0.02 MPa to provide H2 to the hollow fiber membrane components in the main reaction tank 4 and the auxiliary reaction tank 5;

When NO3 - When the concentration remains basically unchanged for 5 consecutive days, the start-up and acclimation of the membrane biofilm reactor are considered to be completed; at this time, the NO3 - The concentration was 8.1±0.2 mgN / L, NO3 - The removal rate is 59~61%.
[0047] (3) Add Na2S2O3 to the influent to increase NO3 - Removal rate: prepare a second simulated wastewater, the difference between the second simulated wastewater and the first simulated wastewater is that it contains Na2S2O3 with a concentration of 22 mgS / L; after the membrane biofilm reactor is started and acclimated, the second simulated wastewater is introduced, and the other operating conditions of the membrane biofilm reactor are kept consistent with those in the start-up and acclimation steps, so that sulfur autotrophic denitrifying bacteria are generated in the biofilm, and the membrane biofilm reactor is operated until NO3 - The concentration reached stability. Example 2

[0050] The method of Example 1 was followed, except that no Na2S2O3 was added to the influent water in step (3), i.e., the concentration was 0.
[0051] Figure 2 The effects of different concentrations of Na2S2O3 on the removal of NO3 by the medium-film biofilm reactor of the present invention - The results show that adding different concentrations of Na2S2O3 to the contaminated raw water has a significant effect on the removal of NO3 by the membrane biofilm reactor compared to the case where the membrane biofilm reactor only provides H2 as an electron donor. - The performance of the reactor was improved to varying degrees, indicating that the additional addition of Na2S2O3 resulted in the synergistic denitrification of sulfur and hydrogen in the membrane biofilm reactor. When the concentration of Na2S2O3 increased from 0 mgS / L to 46 mgS / L, the NO3 - The concentration decreased significantly from 8.10 mgN / L to 4.10 mgN / L, and NO3- Removal flux from 1.21gN / m 2 d increases to 1.62 gN / m 2 ·d, corresponding NO3 - The removal rate increased from 60% to 80%; when Na2S2O3 increased from 46 mgS / L to 68 mgS / L, NO3 - The concentration dropped to 3.1 mgN / L, NO3 - The removal rate was further increased by about 4.5%. The above results show that adding a certain concentration of Na2S2O3 as a soluble electron donor to H2-MBfR can significantly improve the reactor's ability to remove NO3 - performance.
[0052] The above is only a preferred embodiment of the present invention. It should be pointed out that for ordinary technicians in this technical field, several improvements and modifications can be made without departing from the principles of the present invention. These improvements and modifications should also be regarded as within the scope of protection of the present invention.
