[0052] Wastewater treatment effect of Experimental Example 1

[0053] Experiments were conducted using the wastewater treatment systems in Example 1 and Comparative Examples 1 - 4 as follows:

[0054] The experiments were carried out in a blower aeration tank to test the purification efficiency of each system. A total of 500 L of the wastewater treatment system and 1500 L of urban sewage were put into the aeration tank for each group of experiments. The aeration time was set to 4 h, and samples were taken after discharging.

[0055] The discharge standards refer to the Class B standards of the "Pollutant Discharge Standards for Municipal Wastewater Treatment Plants: GB 18918-2002", and the three indicators are Chemical Oxygen Demand (COD): 60 mg / L, Biochemical Oxygen Demand (BOD): 20 mg / L, and Suspended Solids (SS): 20 mg / L.

[0056] Chemical Oxygen Demand (COD) is determined by the dichromate method, and the determination method refers to GB11914-89; Biochemical Oxygen Demand (BOD) is determined by the dilution and inoculation method, and the determination method refers to GB7488-87; Suspended Solids (SS) is determined by the gravimetric method, and the determination method refers to GB11901-89.

[0057] Before discharging urban sewage, water quality samples are taken at the discharge outlet at the end of the aeration tank after aeration treatment to measure the three groups of indicators and calculate the average value, as shown in Tables 1 to 3 below:

[0058] Table 1 Changes in Chemical Oxygen Demand (COD) before and after treatment

[0059]

[0060] Table 2 Changes in Biochemical Oxygen Demand (BOD) before and after treatment

[0061]

[0062] Table 3 Changes in Suspended Solids (SS) before and after treatment

[0063]

[0064] From the treatment results, it can be seen that the wastewater treatment process provided by the present invention can significantly reduce the Chemical Oxygen Demand (COD), Biochemical Oxygen Demand (BOD), and Suspended Solids (SS) in the wastewater to be treated. In Example 1, the removal rate of Chemical Oxygen Demand (COD) can reach 94.87% within 4 hours, the removal rate of Biochemical Oxygen Demand (BOD) can reach 96.60%, and the removal rate of Suspended Solids (SS) can reach 96.58%. Compared with other implementation schemes, Example 1 provided by the present invention achieves the best removal efficiency in a shorter treatment time, which is beneficial to accelerating the wastewater treatment process.

[0065] System state after treatment in Experimental Example 2

[0066] Five sewage treatment operation management personnel with experience in patrolling the aeration tank are selected to record and score the system state after treatment respectively. The scoring criteria are shown in Table 4 below:

[0067] Table 4 Scoring criteria for system state after treatment

[0068]

[0069] The average value of the scoring results for each group is taken, and the final results are shown in Table 5 below:

[0070] Table 5 System status after treatment

[0071] Grouping System odor Supernatant color Sludge floating condition Total score Example 1 27.87 28.27 37.17 93.31 Comparative example 1 25.70 23.77 19.56 69.03 Comparative example 2 11.07 15.26 7.24 33.57 Comparative example 3 14.27 15.68 10.03 39.98 Comparative example 4 26.88 19.89 24.90 71.67

[0072] The earthy smell of the sludge often indicates a certain microbial activity in the system. When the smell is strong, it means that the sludge in the system has basically lost its activity and no longer has the ability to treat wastewater. The color of the supernatant and the condition of the floating sludge can correspond to the treatment degree. When the supernatant is clear and transparent and the sludge does not expand or float, it means that the wastewater treatment system can continue to operate normally. When the supernatant is turbid, it represents a poor treatment effect of the sludge, and the organic matter in the wastewater has not been fully decomposed. The sludge expansion or floating is caused by the deterioration of the sludge sedimentation performance, which in turn destroys the normal process operation and directly affects the effluent quality. In the present invention, the activated sludge combined with quartz sand and the algal-bacterial symbiont can effectively prevent the situation of sludge expansion caused by excessive soluble low-molecular components and miscellaneous strains in the sludge, and ensure the continuous progress of the wastewater treatment process.

[0073] The above are only the preferred embodiments of the present invention. It should be noted that for those of ordinary skill in the art of this technology, without departing from the principle of the present invention, several improvements and refinements can be made, and these improvements and refinements should also be regarded as the protection scope of the present invention.
