Description
Technical Field
[0001] This invention designs a composite biofilm reactor that integrates the advantages of various packing materials, specifically targeting the deep treatment of characteristic pollutants in petrochemical wastewater, and belongs to the field of wastewater treatment technology. Background Technology
[0002] The presence of persistent organic matter and ammonia nitrogen in petrochemical wastewater poses a significant technological bottleneck in its treatment. Direct discharge of these pollutants would cause irreversible damage to the ecological environment. This underscores the urgent need to develop advanced treatment technologies that can effectively remove these pollutants. Biofilm processes have become a focal point in this field due to their excellent treatment capacity, high stability, low operating costs, and high space utilization. However, it is worth noting that the type of biofilm and the design of the packing material used significantly impact the wastewater treatment effect.
[0003] In the 1950s, biofilm processes initially relied primarily on the natural growth of a single type of biofilm and the degradation by microorganisms. Due to technological limitations, its effectiveness and application scope in practice were relatively limited. However, with technological advancements, researchers began to explore and introduce new materials and design strategies to optimize biofilm performance, and the technology gradually became applicable to the treatment of wastewater containing recalcitrant organic matter. In studies on single packing materials, lightweight packing materials such as polyethylene and polyvinyl chloride exhibit good flowability and oxygen transfer capabilities, but suffer from poor biofilm stability. Granular packing materials such as activated carbon and ceramsite provide a stable environment for biofilm growth, but traditional stacking methods can easily lead to problems such as limited oxygen transfer, obstructed water flow, and excessively thick biofilms. Some researchers have also fixed granular packing materials in the reactor, but the efficiency of oxygen and nutrient transfer remains an issue. In recent years, to compensate for the shortcomings of single packing materials, researchers have attempted to combine different types of packing materials to achieve a balance between treatment efficiency and biofilm stability. However, the rational configuration and optimization of different types of packing materials to achieve optimal treatment results remains a technical challenge.
[0004] This novel composite packing technology cleverly combines fixed and fluidized packing materials, maintaining the high treatment efficiency and mass transfer performance of fluidized packing while leveraging the advantages of fixed packing in biofilm stability. This idea opens up new avenues for the advanced treatment of recalcitrant organic matter and ammonia nitrogen in wastewater.
[0005] Under the current stringent environmental standards and new policies, petrochemical wastewater treatment faces higher requirements. This includes achieving the treatment of characteristic pollutants in petrochemical wastewater (COD and NH4). + The efficient removal of nitrogen (N-O) has become a top priority. With its technological and economic advantages, the composite biofilm reactor holds promise as an effective tool for solving the current problem of advanced petrochemical wastewater treatment. Summary of the Invention
[0006] This invention discloses a composite biofilm reactor for the advanced treatment of petrochemical wastewater, belonging to the field of wastewater treatment technology. The composite biofilm reactor uses two types of packing materials: packing material A and packing material B. Packing material A is granular and fixed in the reactor using a specialized structure, which not only prevents particulate loss but also provides a stable attachment environment for microorganisms, promoting biofilm formation. Packing material B is made of lightweight materials and is placed in the reactor; its good fluidity expands the effective contact area of the biofilm and enhances the transfer efficiency of oxygen and organic matter in the wastewater. Furthermore, this device employs bottom aeration to ensure efficient oxygen transfer and distribution, creating an environment conducive to microbial growth and metabolism, further enhancing the removal of recalcitrant organic matter and ammonia nitrogen. This method integrates the advantages of fixed-bed and fluidized-bed technologies, ensuring that the treated water quality meets stringent national discharge standards.

[0010] A method for using a novel composite biofilm reactor for deep treatment of petrochemical wastewater, characterized by comprising the following steps:
[0011] (1) Pre-film formation in the reactor: New, unformed packing material A is placed in the pre-film reactor (1), and activated sludge is added to the reactor. The activated sludge used for inoculation is return sludge from the secondary sedimentation tank of the wastewater treatment plant. After inoculation, the suspended sludge concentration in the reactor is 2000-2500 mg / L. The nutrient solution in the influent tank (1.1) is introduced into the pre-film reactor (1) through the inlet (1.3) via the peristaltic pump (1.2). The reactor operates in an intermittent mode, consisting of five stages: influent, reaction, sedimentation, effluent, and idle. Each cycle lasts 6 hours, with four cycles per day. The influent cycle is 15 minutes, the reaction cycle is 240 minutes, the sedimentation cycle is 30 minutes, the effluent cycle is 15 minutes, and the idle cycle is 60 minutes. During the reaction stage, an air pump (1.6), a gas flow meter (1.7), and an aeration disc (1.8) are used to aerate the bottom of the pre-film reactor (1) to maintain dissolved oxygen at 2-3 mg / L. When the biomass increases to more than 0.1 mg SS / g and the biofilm on the packing surface is more than 500 μm thick, the reactor enters a stable operating state. The reactor is considered to have successfully formed a biofilm after operating stably for more than 10 days.
[0012] (2) Inoculation of packing material and start-up of composite biofilm reactor: Take out packing material A from the pre-film reactor (1) and sieve it multiple times through a 30-mesh sieve to ensure complete separation of packing material A from activated sludge. Place the sieved packing material A into the first packing layer A and the second packing layer A respectively, and inoculate the new un-filmed packing material B into packing layer B; add NH4 in the influent tank (2.1) + Petrochemical wastewater with N=30-40 mg / L and COD=100-200 mg / L requiring deep treatment enters the composite biofilm reactor (2) from the bottom through the inlet (2.3) using a peristaltic pump (2.2). Continuous aeration is performed at the bottom of the composite biofilm reactor (2) using an air pump (2.6), a gas flow meter (2.7), and an aeration disc (2.8) to maintain dissolved oxygen at 2-3 mg / L. The composite biofilm reactor (2) operates at a hydraulic retention time of 18.5 h and a temperature of 25-30 °C. When the effluent NH4... + The composite biofilm reactor is considered to have been successfully started up if -N < 8 mg / L, COD removal rate ≥ 50%, biomass increases to 0.3 mg SS / g or more, and the biofilm thickness on the packing surface is ≥ 1000 μm.
[0013] (3) Stable operation of the system: The composite biofilm reactor (2) operates at a hydraulic retention time of 18.5h, an air-to-water ratio of 20:1, and a temperature of 25-30℃. The air pump (2.6), gas flow meter (2.7), and aeration disc (2.8) are used to continuously aerate the bottom of the composite biofilm reactor (2) to maintain dissolved oxygen at 2-3mg / L.

[0014] (4) Replacement of packing material: After long-term use, the composite biofilm reactor (2) will experience a decline in packing material performance, such as wear, deformation, aging, corrosion, etc., and the effluent indicators will show NH4 for more than 10 days. + When -N > 15 mg / L and COD removal rate ≤ 30%, both types of packing materials need to be replaced. If packing material A exhibits the above phenomenon, it can be removed from the first packing fixing device (2.11) and the second packing fixing device (2.13), and a portion of the old packing material A can be gradually replaced by regeneration or supplementing with new packing material. If packing material B exhibits the above phenomenon, it can be removed from packing layer B, and the old packing material B can be replaced by supplementing with new packing material.

Packing material A is granular and fixed to the upper and lower parts of the reactor using a dedicated structure; packing material B is made of lightweight material and is positioned in the middle of the reactor. The total filling rate is 50% of the reaction tank volume. Significant differences exist in the geometric characteristics and pore structure of the two carriers.
[0016] Packing material A is located in the first packing fixing device (2.11) and the second packing fixing device (2.13), preventing packing material loss. Packing material A can be composed of granular packing materials such as activated carbon and ceramsite, with a particle size of 1-2 mm. This granular packing material provides a stable environment for biofilm growth.
[0017] Packing material B is located within packing layer B. Packing material B is mainly made of lightweight fillers such as polyethylene and polystyrene, exhibiting high fluidity and a honeycomb structure. This lightweight packing material possesses excellent fluidity and oxygen transfer capabilities.
[0018] This invention has the following advantages:
[0019] 1) This invention integrates the features of fixed bed and fluidized bed technologies. By rationally configuring and optimizing different types of packing materials, the reactor can simultaneously achieve high treatment efficiency and a stable biofilm.
[0020] 2) This invention adopts bottom aeration to ensure efficient oxygen transfer and distribution, creating an environment conducive to microbial growth and metabolism, and further enhancing the removal efficiency of recalcitrant organic matter and ammonia nitrogen.
[0021] 3) This invention employs a novel composite biofilm reactor for the deep treatment of petrochemical wastewater, effectively eliminating the presence of characteristic pollutants (COD and NH4) in the wastewater. + The efficient removal of nitrogen (N) meets the requirements for upgrading emissions standards, making it an economical and environmentally friendly treatment device.

[0030] During the experiment, the pre-film reactor used wastewater with a certain amount of nutrient solution.

the nutrient solution in the water inlet tank (1.1) enters the pre-membrane reactor (1) from the water inlet (1.3) through the peristaltic pump (1.2); intermittent mode is adopted to operate according to the five stages of water inlet-reaction-settling- effluent-idling, 6 h as a cycle, 4 cycles a day, wherein the water inlet is 15 min, the reaction is 240 min, the settling is 30 min, the effluent is 15 min, and the idling is 60 min; in the reaction stage, the air pump (1.6), the gas flow meter (1.7) and the aeration disc (1.8) are used to aerate at the bottom of the pre-membrane reactor (1) to maintain the dissolved oxygen at 2-3 mg / L; when the biomass increases to 0.1 mg SS / g or more, and the bio-membrane attached to the surface of the filler is thicker than 500 μm, the reactor enters a stable operation state, and the reactor is considered to be successfully membrane-formed when the state is stably operated for more than 10 days; (2) Inoculation of the filler and start-up of the composite biofilm reactor: the filler A in the pre-film reactor (1) was removed, placed in a 30 mesh screen and sieved several times to ensure that the filler A was completely separated from the activated sludge; the sieved filler A was placed in the first filler layer A and the second filler layer A, respectively, and the new un-filmed filler B was placed in the filler layer B for inoculation; NH4 + The petrochemical wastewater with NH4 + -N < 8 mg / L, COD removal rate ≥ 50%, biomass increased to 0.3 mg SS / g or more and the thickness of the biofilm attached to the surface of the filler was 1000 μm or more, and the stable operation for 15 days or more was considered as the successful start-up of the composite biofilm reactor. (3) Stable operation of the system: the composite bio-membrane reactor (2) is operated under the conditions of a hydraulic retention time of 18.5 h, a gas-water ratio of 20:1 and a temperature of 25-30 ℃; the air pump (2.6), the gas flow meter (2.7) and the aeration disc (2.8) are used to continuously aerate at the bottom of the composite bio-membrane reactor (2) to maintain the dissolved oxygen at 2-3 mg / L, and the effluent overflows from the water outlet (2.9); (4) The update of the filler: the composite bio-membrane reactor (2) will appear the performance decline of the filler after long-term use, and the effluent indicators appear NH4 + -N>15 mg / L, and the COD removal rate is ≤30 %, the two fillers inside need to be updated; if the filler A appears the above phenomena, the filler A can be taken out from the first filler fixing device (2.11) and the second filler fixing device (2.13), and the method of regenerating or supplementing new fillers is used to gradually replace a part of the old filler A; if the filler B appears the above phenomena, the filler B can be taken out from the filler layer B, and the method of supplementing new fillers is used to replace the old filler B.
2. The method according to claim 1, filler A is located in the first filler fixing device (2.11) and the second filler fixing device (2.13), filler A is granular activated carbon or ceramic particles; the particle size is 1-2 mm; filler B is located in the filler layer B; filler B is polyethylene or polystyrene.
