Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This invention belongs to the technical field of comprehensive utilization of urban and rural domestic waste, and relates to a process for accelerating the degradation and stabilization of landfill waste. Background Technology
[0002] Landfills, due to the large accumulation of municipal solid waste, create anaerobic environments that lead to the accumulation of large amounts of foul-smelling gases (or flammable and explosive gases) such as methane and hydrogen sulfide. Before reaching a stable state after 10 years of landfilling, direct excavation can easily result in poisoning or explosions. Furthermore, some waste, due to its unique composition, cannot decompose naturally and accumulates in the atmosphere, soil, and water sources, causing pollution problems.
[0003] Therefore, it is necessary to accelerate the decomposition and treatment of household waste. Biodegradation, which utilizes biological metabolic mechanisms such as microorganisms to break down waste into harmless organic matter, is a highly effective method. For example, using biomass materials such as peat and reeds to construct biological filtration layers for treating domestic sewage can effectively degrade organic pollutants, enabling sewage purification to meet standards.
[0004] Photodegradation refers to the use of light and photochemical reactions to break down pollutants into non-toxic and harmless substances. For example, using ultraviolet light to treat pollutants in water and air can greatly improve the efficiency of pollutant degradation.
[0005] In addition, chemical degradation technology can also accelerate the waste treatment process. Currently, methods such as chemical reduction and oxidation can convert harmful substances in waste into harmless substances. Using this method to treat harmful substances in waste can improve the decomposition efficiency of pollutants and reduce environmental harm.
[0006] Therefore, improving waste management methods can achieve rapid stabilization of waste by enhancing the rates of the three degradation mechanisms: biodegradation, photodegradation, and chemical degradation. Summary of the Invention
[0007] The purpose of this invention is to provide a process for accelerating the degradation and stabilization of landfill waste.

[0035] 1. Accelerating degradation agents include titanium dioxide, sodium chloride, phosphates, carboxylates, calcium carbonate, bentonite, enzymes, polycarboxylates, and organic peroxides. These agents can fully bind with various substances. Carboxylates and polycarboxylates can disperse substances, increase the surface area of contact between substances, and facilitate chemical reactions. Phosphates, calcium carbonate, and bentonite can effectively regulate the acid-base balance of the reaction, ensuring the smooth progress of the reaction. In addition, the above components can also serve as good nutrients for microorganisms, promoting microbial degradation reactions.
[0036] 2. Under sunlight, titanium dioxide added to landfill waste absorbs light energy and converts it into electrons and holes, triggering photolysis and generating a large number of free radicals. This promotes the oxidative decomposition of organic matter in the waste. Sodium chloride increases the ion concentration in landfill waste, thereby promoting the photolysis reaction. Under sunlight, sodium ions in sodium chloride absorb light energy and generate electrons and holes. These active ions, along with a large number of free radicals, can mutually promote contact with organic matter in the waste and trigger photochemical reactions, thus promoting the oxidative decomposition of organic matter. Furthermore, sodium chloride can reduce hydrolysis reactions in waste, thereby slowing down the decomposition process in landfills, extending its storage time, and protecting the environment.

[0077] Test: 10 kg of landfill waste was mixed with 2 L of tap water and treated with the processes of Examples 1-4 and Comparative Examples 1-6 respectively.

[0080] The "+" indicates a settlement of 0.5 to 1 cm.

Simultaneously, chloride ions can also adsorb onto the surface of titanium dioxide, increasing its light absorption capacity and further enhancing photocatalytic efficiency. Therefore, the synergistic effect of titanium dioxide and sodium chloride improves the oxidative decomposition efficiency of organic matter in waste. Furthermore, sodium chloride can reduce hydrolysis reactions in waste, thereby slowing down the decomposition process in landfills, extending its storage time, and protecting the environment.

At the same time, phosphates reduce the loss of nutrients such as nitrogen and phosphorus in the waste, ensuring the smooth progress of the reaction; calcium carbonate can neutralize acidic substances in the waste and improve the physical properties of the waste, making it easier to landfill and compact; bentonite can increase the aeration and water retention of the waste, promote the growth of microorganisms, and accelerate the decomposition of the waste.
