Description

TECHNICAL FIELD

[0001] The application belongs to the technical field of sewage treatment and relates to a short-cut nitrification and denitrification rapid start-up process. BACKGROUND

[0002] In the field of water pollution control, the main reason for the unsatisfactory total nitrogen removal effect is that the traditional denitrification method (full nitrification and denitrification) has problems such as low denitrification efficiency and high operation cost. The research focus in the field of wastewater biological denitrification has shifted to efficient and low-cost technologies. Compared with traditional denitrification technologies, the short-cut nitrification and denitrification process has attracted widespread attention due to its advantages such as reducing carbon source by 40% and saving 25% of aeration energy.

[0003] However, the conventional short-cut nitrification and denitrification start-up method is based on the control of operating parameters (DO, pH) to achieve AOB enrichment, NOB inhibition and gradual elimination. This method has problems such as long start-up time and unstable nitrite accumulation rate, especially in the process of treating low ammonia nitrogen wastewater, it is difficult to continuously maintain the short-cut effect. For example, in the literature "Short-cut nitrification and denitrification rapid start-up and stable operation research", the short-cut nitrification start-up is achieved under low DO conditions through real-time control of DO and pH. It takes about 25 days to achieve a nitrite accumulation rate of 50% and realize start-up. Patent CN200410017477.7 proposes a short-cut nitrification rapid start-up method for ammonia-containing wastewater. The characteristics of this method are as follows: using aerobic activated sludge as inoculum, adopting continuous operation mode, controlling temperature at 25-28℃, pH at 7.2-7.5, and dissolved oxygen concentration at 2.5-3.0 mg / L to enrich sufficient nitrifying bacteria; when the ammonia nitrogen removal rate reaches 98% and the operation is stable, the pH value is adjusted to 8.0-8.2, the temperature is controlled between 32-35℃, and the dissolved oxygen concentration is controlled between 1.0-1.5 mg / L to select nitrite bacteria and eliminate nitrate bacteria. The initial concentration of ammonia-containing wastewater in the start-up process is 5-6 mmol / L, and the final concentration is 30 mmol / L. The short-cut nitrification rapid start-up can be achieved after 39-46 days of operation. In addition, although adding chemicals (such as hydroxylamine) to achieve short-cut start-up is an effective method, there is a risk of secondary pollution. Therefore, it is necessary to develop a high-efficiency, rapid and green economic short-cut nitrification and denitrification rapid start-up technology.

[0004] Free ammonia (FA) is a kind of protonated ammonia substance. Studies have shown that, compared with AOB, NOB is more sensitive to FA inhibition. Therefore, it is a feasible method to achieve in-situ rapid start-up of short-cut nitrification and denitrification under FA stress conditions. Currently, the conventional short-cut nitrification and denitrification start-up method is to use relatively mild conditions to enrich AOB and inhibit and gradually eliminate NOB. This method has problems such as slow short-cut nitrification start-up and unstable nitrite accumulation rate after start-up. SUMMARY

[0005] The present application aims to provide a short-cut nitrification and denitrification rapid start-up process, which uses high-concentration FA to strongly inhibit the activity of AOB and NOB, and after reducing the concentration of FA, AOB can quickly restore ammonia oxidation activity, but due to the generation of nitrite nitrogen, free nitrous acid (FNA) will also inhibit NOB, under the double inhibition of FA and FNA, the continuous control of low DO and high pH, and the discharge of activated sludge, NOB loses activity and is gradually eliminated, thereby realizing the rapid start-up of short-cut nitrification and denitrification, stable operation of the short-cut process, stable accumulation of nitrite nitrogen after start-up, and efficient denitrification.

[0085] Depend on Figure 1 As can be seen in Example 1, the nitrite accumulation rate increased with the extension of FA stress. Rapid startup of short-range nitrification (nitrite accumulation rate greater than 50%) was achieved on the third day (T5) of FA stress, demonstrating the feasibility of this startup method. However, when the influent FA concentration was reduced, the nitrite accumulation rate showed a decreasing trend, indicating that the short-range process startup method was not stable, possibly because the low FA concentration did not completely eliminate NOB in the system.

[0086] Depend on Figure 2 It can be seen that the nitrite nitrogen accumulation rate increases with the increase of FA stress time. Similarly, the rapid start-up of short-range nitrification is achieved on the third day (T5) of FA stress, indicating that this startup method is feasible. When the influent FA concentration is reduced, the system still maintains a high nitrite nitrogen accumulation rate, but after reducing the influent FA concentration, the nitrite nitrogen accumulation rate has a downward trend.

[0087] Depend on Figure 3 As can be seen, the nitrite accumulation rate increases with increasing FA stress time. Similarly, rapid startup of short-range nitrification was achieved on the third day (T5) of FA stress, demonstrating the feasibility of this startup method. When the influent FA concentration was reduced, the system still maintained a high nitrite accumulation rate, indicating that the startup method of Example 3 can both quickly start and have high process stability. However, the ammonia oxidation process was also significantly inhibited under this concentration stress, with an ammonia nitrogen removal rate of only 19.3%. Therefore, the ammonia nitrogen concentration should not be higher than 500 mg / L to avoid irreversible damage to AOB.

[0088] In summary, the present invention realizes the rapid start of in situ short-range nitrification and denitrification based on the differential sensitivity of AOB and NOB to high-concentration FA stress, and the nitrite nitrogen accumulation rate can be greater than 50% within 3 days of stress.

[0089] Comparative Example 1

[0090] The pollutant removal performance of the short-cut process and the full-cut process of Example 3 were compared by running the full-cut nitrification and denitrification process simultaneously. After the short-cut process was started according to the method described in Example 3, it was run continuously for 18 days. At the same time, the full-cut nitrification and denitrification process was started and run simultaneously for 18 days.

[0091] The full nitrification and denitrification process: the carbon-nitrogen ratio is set in the range of 6-7, the MLSS control range is 3500-4500 mg / L, the ammonia nitrogen concentration is 30-35 mg / L, the pH range is 7.3-7.8, and the DO range is controlled by the aeration pump in the range of 2.0-4.0 mg / L. After stable operation, the running cycle of the full nitrification and denitrification process is set as 280 min: 30 min of influent, 120 min of aeration, 60 min of anoxic, 30 min of aeration, 30 min of sedimentation, and 10 min of effluent. The short and full nitrification and denitrification processes are synchronously operated for 18 days.

[0092] The results, as shown in Figure 4 The average concentration of FA in the short process is 5.34 mg / L, while the average concentration of FA in the full process is 1.20 mg / L, indicating that the higher FA concentration in the short process continuously inhibits the activity of NOB.

[0093] Further analysis and comparison of the decontamination performance of the short and full nitrification and denitrification processes operated for 18 days show that Figures 5-6 After stable operation, the total nitrogen removal rates of the short and full processes are 82.99% and 62.21%, respectively; the nitrite nitrogen accumulation rates are 90.19% and 2.27%, respectively; the ammonia nitrogen removal rates are 94.69% and 87.71%, respectively; and the COD removal rates are 92.42% and 90.21%, respectively, proving that the decontamination performance of the short process is significantly better than that of the full process. In addition, the effluent of the short process can meet the first level A standard in the "Discharge Standard of Pollutants for Municipal Wastewater Treatment Plant" (GB 18918-2002).
