Description

Technical Field

[0001] This invention relates to the field of water treatment technology, and in particular to a system and method for achieving stable operation of short-cut nitrification processes for urban wastewater through light-controlled regulation. Background Technology

[0002] Urban wastewater in my country is typically characterized by a low carbon-to-nitrogen ratio, and achieving total nitrogen discharge standards often relies on external carbon source addition, resulting in high operating costs and large carbon emissions. Novel short-process nitrogen removal technologies, such as anaerobic ammonium oxidation (ANAO), can significantly reduce aeration energy consumption and carbon source consumption, as well as sludge production, providing an important pathway for synergistic efficiency improvement in urban wastewater treatment by reducing pollution and carbon emissions. However, stable operation of short-cut nitrification remains a technical bottleneck for the application of mainstream urban wastewater ANAO projects.

[0003] Short-cut nitrification refers to the process of reducing ammonia nitrogen (NH4) to nitrogen. + The oxidation of nitrite (NO2) is controlled within the nitrite nitrogen (NO2) range. - To prevent further conversion into nitrate nitrogen (NO3) - This provides a key substrate for anaerobic ammonia oxidizing bacteria. Ammonia oxidizing bacteria (AOB) and nitrite oxidizing bacteria (NOB) are two core competing microorganisms involved in controlling short-cut nitrification. The stable operation of short-cut nitrification hinges on achieving AOB enrichment and NOB elimination. Currently, methods to inhibit NOB metabolism and growth can be categorized into three types: 1) optimizing operating strategies, including controlling temperature, dissolved oxygen, and sludge age; 2) adding inhibitory substances, including free ammonia, free nitrite, sulfides, hydroxylamine, and ultrasound; 3) bioaugmentation and selective washing, including inoculation with ammonia oxidizing bacteria or anaerobic ammonia oxidizing bacteria. Notably, hydroxylamine is a key intermediate product in the oxidation of ammonia to nitrite. Adding a small amount of hydroxylamine can promote the activity of ammonia monooxygenase and hydroxylamine oxidase, and has been used to maintain the stability of low-substrate municipal wastewater short-cut nitrification processes. However, hydroxylamine's inhibition of NOB is reversible. To maintain long-term NOB inhibition, continuous addition of hydroxylamine is required, which not only increases the operating costs of wastewater treatment plants but also introduces significant irreversibility into the nitrification and ascites processes, potentially leading to toxin accumulation and secondary pollution. In summary, although various selective NOB inhibition strategies have been proven feasible for achieving short-cut nitrification, NOB adaptability issues result in poor long-term NOB inhibition, especially in urban wastewater systems with low ammonia nitrogen concentrations, where the process performance stability of short-cut nitrification is poor. Therefore, there is an urgent need to develop new and effective strategies to achieve AOB enrichment and NOB inhibition to stably maintain short-cut nitrification in urban wastewater.

[0004] Light energy is a form of electromagnetic radiation composed of photons emitted by hot objects. Most of the energy needed by humans comes directly or indirectly from the sun, and solar energy, as the most widely available renewable energy source, has been widely used as an auxiliary process in water treatment. Numerous studies have shown that both AOB (Aging By-products) and NOB (Natural Oxygen Absorbers) are photosensitized, with NOB being more sensitive to light than AOB; light irradiation can selectively inhibit NOB activity. Furthermore, light-controlled short-cut nitrification strategies do not involve the addition of chemical inhibitors, reducing process complexity and exhibiting high efficiency, green practices, energy conservation, and low carbon emissions. Therefore, light irradiation provides a new approach to achieving short-cut nitrification, helping to improve the stability of short-cut nitrification in urban wastewater and holding significant importance for the development and application of short-cut nitrification processes.

[0005] Compared to patent CN202210727287.2, which provides a process for purifying high-ammonia nitrogen wastewater using microalgae coupled with short-cut nitrification activated sludge, this patent involves controlling the duration and intensity of light exposure to create an alternating aerobic-anoxic environment in the reactor. Under optimal operating conditions, the system can remove nitrogen and phosphorus without aeration. Comparing patent CN201910264789.4, which provides a method and apparatus for rapidly achieving stable short-cut nitrification of urban domestic sewage using bioaugmentation technology combined with real-time control, this patent describes a reactor for treating high-ammonia nitrogen wastewater. In the first sequencing batch reactor, short-cut nitrification is achieved through free ammonia (FA) and real-time control. Short-cut nitrified sludge is discharged and stored each cycle. In the second sequencing batch reactor, organic matter and nitrogen are removed. In the anoxic zone, short-cut digested sludge is added for bioaugmentation, and prolonged anoxic conditions combined with real-time control rapidly enrich AOB in the reactor, inhibiting NOB and achieving rapid, stable short-cut nitrification for deep denitrification. However, the existing patents have complex process setups, require additional aeration, and have high energy consumption. Summary of the Invention

[0006] The purpose of this invention is to address the challenge of maintaining long-term stability in short-cut nitrification of urban wastewater by providing a system and method for achieving stable operation of the short-cut nitrification process through light regulation. This system is applicable to urban wastewater treatment. The key feature of this invention is operating the short-cut nitrification reactor with low sludge concentration. A certain intensity of light is applied to the reactor using natural light or LEDs, and the light intensity is adjusted according to actual operating conditions. This selectively inhibits the proliferation of nitrite-oxidizing bacteria without affecting the enrichment and growth of ammonia-oxidizing bacteria, thereby achieving nitrite accumulation and obtaining a long-term, highly stable short-cut nitrification process for urban wastewater.

[0007] The objective of this invention can be achieved through the following technical solutions:

[0008] A system for achieving stable operation of a short-cut nitrification process in urban wastewater through light-controlled processes includes an influent tank, a sequencing batch reactor (SBR), a light source, and an effluent tank.

[0009] One end of the sequencing batch reactor is connected to the inlet tank via a pipe, and the other end of the sequencing batch reactor is connected to the outlet tank via a pipe. A light source is installed inside the sequencing batch reactor.

[0010] The inlet tank is used to feed urban sewage into the sequencing batch reactor (SBR), which is used for short-cut nitrification of urban sewage. The light source is used to provide illumination to the SBR, and the stability of the short-cut nitrification process of urban sewage is maintained by a certain intensity of light.

[0011] Furthermore, there are no special requirements regarding the relative positions of the light source and the sequencing batch reactor.

[0012] Furthermore, the system also includes an online monitoring device and a display, with one end of the online monitoring device connected to the sequencing batch reactor and the other end connected to the display.

[0013] Furthermore, the online monitoring device is equipped with a display interface, and the display is connected to the online monitoring device through the display interface.

[0014] Furthermore, the sequencing batch reactor is equipped with a pH meter and a dissolved oxygen (DO) meter. The bottom ends of the pH meter and the dissolved oxygen meter are inserted into the sequencing batch reactor, and the top ends of the pH meter and the dissolved oxygen meter are connected to an online monitoring device for monitoring the pH and DO of the sequencing batch reactor.

[0015] Furthermore, the pH and dissolved oxygen detectors are equipped with temperature sensors at their probes. These temperature sensors are connected to online monitoring equipment and are used to synchronously monitor the temperature within the sequencing batch reactor. Additionally, the sequencing batch reactor is equipped with a stirrer to enhance mass transfer.

[0016] Furthermore, an inlet pump is installed on the pipeline connecting the sequencing batch reactor to the inlet tank, and the inlet pump is used to pump urban sewage from the inlet tank into the sequencing batch reactor.

[0017] Furthermore, an outlet pump is installed on the pipeline connecting the sequencing batch reactor to the outlet tank, and the outlet pump is used to pump the outlet water of the sequencing batch reactor into the outlet tank.

[0018] Furthermore, this invention also provides a method for achieving stable operation of a short-cut nitrification process for urban wastewater using light-controlled processes, employing the aforementioned system, with the specific steps as follows:

[0019] S1. Inoculate sludge into the sequencing batch reactor;

[0020] S2. Low-concentration urban sewage is introduced into the sequencing batch reactor through the inlet tank, and the agitator is turned on to stir.

[0021] S3. Turn on the light source to irradiate the sequencing batch reactor and carry out the aerobic reaction;

[0022] S4. Real-time monitoring of pH and DO concentration in the sequencing batch reactor is achieved by linking online monitoring equipment with pH and dissolved oxygen detectors.

[0023] S5. Take samples at regular intervals and measure the concentrations of ammonia nitrogen, nitrite and nitrate in the sequencing batch reactor. After all the ammonia nitrogen in the urban sewage is converted into nitrite and precipitates, it enters the drainage stage.

[0024] S6. After the drainage is completed, pump municipal sewage into the sequencing batch reactor and repeat the above steps, running 1-2 cycles per day.

[0025] Furthermore, in step S1, the sludge concentration in the sequencing batch reactor during the reaction process is ≤800~1000mg MLSS / L, and the sludge contains ammonia-oxidizing bacteria and nitrite-oxidizing bacteria. Light irradiation makes the short-cut nitrification process more stable.

[0026] Furthermore, in step S2, the ammonia nitrogen concentration of the urban sewage is 20–70 mg / L.

[0027] Furthermore, in step S2, the stirring speed is 100-150 rpm; low-speed stirring makes the reaction more uniform. For industrial production, the speed can be determined based on the stirring radius and reactor size.

[0028] Furthermore, in step S3, the light intensity inside the sequencing batch reactor is 50–360 μW / cm². 2 The specific light intensity needs to be adjusted based on the sludge concentration and short-cut nitrification performance.

[0029] The temperature of the sequencing batch reactor is controlled at 25–30°C.

[0030] Furthermore, in step S3, the light source can directly utilize natural light or select a light-emitting diode to simulate natural light, wherein the form of the light-emitting diode is not limited.

[0031] Further, in step S5, the concentrations of ammonia nitrogen, nitrite and nitrate in the sequencing batch reactor are sampled and measured at regular intervals. After all the ammonia nitrogen in the urban sewage has been converted into nitrite, the stirrer and light source are turned off.

[0032] After the aerobic reaction is completed, stirring is stopped, and then the sedimentation stage begins. After the mud and water are separated, the effluent pump is turned on to discharge the wastewater treated by the sequencing batch reactor into the effluent tank.

[0033] Furthermore, the wastewater discharge ratio into the outlet tank is 70-90%.

[0034] Compared with the prior art, the beneficial effects of the present invention are as follows:

[0035] 1) This invention is based on a light-controlled short-cut nitrification process for urban wastewater, which can effectively enrich ammonia-oxidizing bacteria and selectively inhibit nitrite-oxidizing bacteria, thus solving the technical problem of stable operation of mainstream short-cut nitrification.

[0036] 2) This invention does not require aeration and operates the short-cut nitrification process for urban wastewater at low sludge concentrations, reducing sludge production and helping to further reduce operating energy consumption and greenhouse gas emissions.

[0037] 3) The light source materials used in this invention are widely available and inexpensive. In practical applications, natural light or light-emitting diodes can be used directly, and the illumination can be directly derived from solar energy, which has the characteristics of being green and environmentally friendly, reducing the complexity of process operation and energy consumption.

[0038] 4) The light source involved in this invention can be directly derived from solar energy, and the reaction process does not require additional aeration, which meets the requirements of green environmental protection, energy conservation and emission reduction in urban sewage treatment in my country, and has strong guiding significance for realizing stable short-cut nitrification process of urban sewage.

[0039] 5) This invention is simple to operate, requires no bio-enhancing or addition of inhibitory substances, and requires no additional aeration. It also operates a low-ammonia nitrogen short-cut nitrification process for urban wastewater at low sludge concentrations, reducing sludge production and further reducing operating energy consumption and greenhouse gas emissions.
