Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] The present invention relates to the technical field of sewage treatment, and in particular to a sewage treatment device and method suitable for low carbon-nitrogen ratio sewage. Background Art
[0002] In recent years, with the rapid development of my country's urban economy, the amount of urban sewage has increased rapidly, and urban sewage treatment capacity has also increased rapidly. As of 2018, my country's sewage treatment capacity had reached 228 million cubic meters per day. The activated sludge process, due to its energy efficiency and economic advantages, has been widely used in urban sewage treatment plants.
[0003] The activated sludge method used in existing urban sewage treatment plants mainly relies on the carbon source in the influent to remove nitrogen and phosphorus. However, some sewage treatment plants lack the carbon source in the influent, resulting in insufficient denitrification capacity of the system and a high nitrate concentration in the effluent. The high concentration of nitrate flows back to the anaerobic zone, inhibiting the anaerobic phosphorus release of polyphosphate bacteria, resulting in poor phosphorus removal efficiency of the system, making it difficult for the effluent quality of the sewage treatment plant to meet the increasingly stringent sewage treatment discharge standards.
[0004] In order to solve the problem of insufficient carbon source in the influent of sewage treatment plants, resulting in poor phosphorus removal efficiency of the system, the present invention proposes a sewage treatment device and method suitable for low carbon-nitrogen ratio. Summary of the Invention
[0005] In order to solve the problem that insufficient carbon source in the influent of a sewage treatment plant leads to insufficient denitrification capacity of the system and high nitrate concentration in the effluent, the high concentration of nitrate flows back to the anaerobic zone, inhibits the anaerobic phosphorus release of polyphosphate bacteria, and leads to poor phosphorus removal efficiency of the system, the present invention provides a sewage treatment device and method suitable for low carbon-nitrogen ratio.
[0006] In order to solve the above technical problems, the present invention is implemented through the following technical solutions:
[0007] A sewage treatment device suitable for a low carbon-nitrogen ratio comprises an anaerobic zone, an anoxic zone, an aerobic zone I, an aerobic zone II, an aerobic zone III and a sedimentation zone which are connected in sequence. Part of the sewage in the aerobic zone III flows back into the anoxic zone, part of the sludge in the sedimentation zone flows back into the anaerobic zone, and the other part of the sludge is discharged.
[0008] Preferably, an ammonia nitrogen online monitoring device is provided in the aerobic II zone.
[0009] Preferably, the anaerobic zone, the anoxic zone and the aerobic zone II are all provided with a stirrer; and the aerobic zone I, the aerobic zone II and the aerobic zone III are all provided with an aeration device.
[0010] Preferably, the connection hole between the anaerobic zone and the anoxic zone is located at 1 / 2 to 2 / 3 of the height of the tank body.
[0011] Preferably, the sludge return ratio in the anaerobic zone is 100% to 200%.
[0012] Preferably, part of the sewage in the aerobic zone III is refluxed into the anoxic zone through a nitrification liquid reflux pump.
[0013] Preferably, part of the sludge in the sedimentation zone is returned to the anaerobic zone through a sludge return pump.
[0014] A method for treating sewage with a low carbon-nitrogen ratio, comprising the following steps:
[0015] Step 1: The sewage enters the anaerobic zone, anoxic zone, aerobic zone I, aerobic zone II, aerobic zone III, and sedimentation zone in sequence;
[0016] Step 2: Part of the sewage from the aerobic III zone flows back to the anoxic zone, and the other part flows into the sedimentation zone;
[0017] Step 3: Part of the sludge in the sedimentation zone is discharged, and the other part is returned to the anaerobic zone through the sludge pump. The agitator in the anaerobic zone does not work;
[0018] Step 4: The agitator in the anoxic zone starts working to complete the mixing of activated sludge and water;
[0019] Step 5: Use a conventional blower to introduce air into the aerobic zone I, aerobic zone II, and aerobic zone III. The aeration device starts working, and the agitator in the aerobic zone II does not work.
[0020] Step 6: Steps 1-5 are run continuously for 2-3 hours. When the ammonia nitrogen concentration in the aerobic zone II is lower than 2 mg / L, the sludge return pump stops working, the agitators in the anaerobic zone and the aerobic zone II start working, the air supply to the aerobic zone I, the aerobic zone II and the aerobic zone III stops, and the aeration device stops working. Among them, the effluent water quality of the sewage treatment plant generally implements the Class A standard, which stipulates that the effluent ammonia nitrogen concentration is 5 mg / L. Studies have found that the aeration process consumes a lot of carbon sources. Considering that the influent carbon source is large, it is necessary to minimize the system's consumption of carbon sources. When the ammonia nitrogen concentration in the aerobic zone II is lower than 2 mg / L, it is then aerobic. During the nitrification in Zone II, the ammonia nitrogen concentration in the system effluent is lower than 1 mg / L, indicating that the system has been fully nitrified and the system aeration is sufficient. In order to minimize the system's consumption of carbon sources, it is considered to stop aerating Zone I, Zone II, and Zone III at this time. On the one hand, it saves energy consumption, and on the other hand, it saves the consumption of carbon sources for aeration, so that the system has more carbon sources for denitrification and denitrification. At the same time, the sludge return pump stops working, and no nitrate nitrogen enters the anaerobic zone, avoiding the competition between polyphosphate bacteria and denitrifying bacteria for carbon sources, so that polyphosphate bacteria have a good living environment, thereby effectively improving the system's phosphorus removal capacity.
[0021] Step 7: During the continuous process of step 6, if the ammonia nitrogen concentration in the aerobic zone II is found to be higher than 4 mg / L, air is introduced into the aerobic zone I, aerobic zone II, and aerobic zone III, and the other processes remain unchanged. After 1 to 2 hours of continuous operation, the process is switched to steps 1 to 5. The effluent quality of the sewage treatment plant generally complies with the Class A standard, which stipulates that the effluent ammonia nitrogen concentration is 5 mg / L. When the ammonia nitrogen concentration in the aerobic zone II is higher than 4 mg / L, the effluent quality is at risk of exceeding the standard. This condition is set to ensure that the effluent quality meets the standard stably. If the ammonia nitrogen concentration in the aerobic zone II is not found to be higher than 4 mg / L, step 6 is run continuously for 1 to 2 hours, and then the process is switched to steps 1 to 5.
[0022] Step 8: Repeat steps 1-7 to complete the efficient removal of pollutants in urban sewage.
[0023] Preferably, the sewage residence time in the anaerobic zone is 0.5-1.5h, the sewage residence time in the anoxic zone is 1.5-3.0h, the sewage residence time in the aerobic zone I is 1.5-5.0h, the sewage residence time in the aerobic zone II is 0.5-1.0h, and the sewage residence time in the aerobic zone III is 1.0-3.0h.
[0024] Preferably, the sampling and monitoring time interval of the ammonia nitrogen online monitoring device in the aerobic II zone is 15 minutes to 30 minutes.
[0025] Compared with the prior art, the present invention has the following advantages and effects:
[0026] The system of the present invention has a strong phosphorus removal and nitrogen removal capability: the present invention adopts an intermittent operation mode for the anaerobic zone sludge return. When the sludge return is turned on, the anaerobic zone agitator stops working, allowing more sludge to be stored in the anaerobic zone. When the sludge return stops working, the anaerobic zone agitator starts working, so that the sludge and the influent are fully mixed. Since there is no large amount of nitrate brought by the sludge return at this time, the polyphosphate bacteria can complete the anaerobic phosphorus release process at this time. Subsequently, the polyphosphate bacteria will pass through the subsequent aerobic stage and finally achieve efficient phosphorus removal in the system. At the same time, an ammonia nitrogen online monitoring device is provided in the aerobic zone. The aeration of the aerobic zone of the system is controlled by the ammonia nitrogen concentration, which reduces the consumption of carbon source by excessive aeration of the system and effectively enhances the phosphorus removal and nitrogen removal capability of the system.
