TECHNICAL FIELD
[0001] The present application relates to the technical field of groundwater pollution remediation, in particular to a device and method for simultaneous removal of multiple target pollutants in groundwater. BACKGROUND
[0002] With the rapid development of economy and industry, the discharge of domestic sewage, industrial wastewater, and leachate from solid waste has significantly increased the harmful substances in groundwater, such as heavy metals, bacteria, inorganic salts, and organic matter. Soil and groundwater pollution is becoming increasingly serious, threatening human health and ecological safety, and hindering sustainable economic development. Therefore, soil and groundwater pollution remediation is imminent.
[0003] Currently, groundwater pollution remediation technologies mainly include physical, chemical, and biological technologies. Physical technologies include air stripping, air stripping, multi-phase extraction, in-situ thermal treatment, adsorption, and electrokinetics. Chemical technologies include oxidation-reduction, leaching, and extraction treatment. Biological technologies include plant and microbial methods. Phytoremediation is a process that uses plants to absorb, stabilize, and decompose and remove pollutants in contaminated soil or groundwater. Microbial remediation is a process that uses microbial enrichment and microbial transformation to degrade pollutants in soil. Plant remediation with adsorption of filled substrate, assimilation of plants, and microbial degradation can remove nitrogen, phosphorus, heavy metals, and organic matter in water. Due to differences in composition, type, and properties of underground water media, especially in the case of multiple pollutants, single remediation technology has obvious shortcomings and cannot achieve the remediation goal. Coupling multiple technologies is one of the effective measures to solve the problem of soil and groundwater pollution.
[0004] Permeable reactive barrier (PRB), electrokinetic remediation (EKR), and phytoremediation are emerging in-situ remediation technologies for soil and groundwater. Permeable reactive barrier is a technology that uses adsorption, precipitation, surface complexation, oxidation-reduction, and biodegradation to intercept or remove pollutants in groundwater by filling specific active fillers in the wall. It can effectively remove inorganic salts, highly toxic heavy metals such as cadmium, chromium, and lead, and various pollutants such as chloroethylene organic pollutants. PRB can treat multiple pollutants for a long time with little disturbance to groundwater, and has the advantages of no need for external power, simple construction, etc. However, factors such as pollutant characteristics, hydrogeological conditions, economic benefits, and environmental impact of on-site construction need to be considered. Electrokinetics is a technology that uses electrodes to apply a direct current voltage to the contaminated site to migrate pollutants to the two sides of the electrodes and thus remediate the pollution. The solubility of pollutants has a significant impact on the treatment effect. When there are a large number of metal ions and negatively charged acid ions in soil and groundwater, significant electro-migration will occur. Electrokinetic remediation is not effective for pollutants with poor solubility, weak desorption ability, and non-polar organic matter.
[0005] The combination of electrokinetic remediation and other remediation technologies is increasingly valued, and the combination of permeable reactive barrier-electrokinetic-phytoremediation (PRB-EKR-Phytoremediation) is becoming a research hotspot in the field of soil and groundwater environmental remediation at home and abroad. The combination of permeable reactive barrier-electrokinetic-phytoremediation combines the advantages of each technology, and comprehensively utilizes physical, chemical, electrochemical, biological and ecological effects, which can effectively improve the removal efficiency of pollutants and reduce the remediation cost. The basic principle is to remove heavy metals, inorganic salts and organic pollutants and other complex pollutants by PBR for primary pollution remediation; and to remove heavy metals, inorganic salts and organic pollutants by electrokinetic-phytoremediation coupling technology for secondary pollution remediation, under the action of electrokinetic force, the pollutants are removed by adsorption of filler matrix, microbial degradation and plant absorption.
[0006] The existing technology generally couples electrokinetic remediation with permeable reactive barrier, phytoremediation and other single technologies, mainly aiming at the removal of single pollutants, or achieving the removal of pollutants through traditional adsorption and plant absorption. How to simultaneously and efficiently remove COD, nitrogen, phosphorus, heavy metals, inorganic salts and organic matter in a contaminated site still faces great challenges. So far, the existing soil and groundwater remediation technology cannot effectively treat complex pollutants. SUMMARY

[0069] The electrodynamic-plant coupled repair technology can accelerate the flow speed of groundwater and pollutants. Heavy metals, cations and polar organic pollutants in the soil migrate to the cathode under the action of a direct current electric field, and the pollutants are adsorbed by the matrix, absorbed by the plant and degraded by the microorganism. The addition of plant growth-promoting bacteria and matrix slow-release carbon source can stimulate microbial growth, significantly improve the efficiency of plant repair, and do not produce secondary pollution.
