Description

Technical Field

[0001] This invention belongs to the field of wastewater treatment, specifically relating to a method for treating electroplating wastewater using a combination of biogas slurry microbial reduction and iron biological oxidation. Background Technology

[0002] Chemical reduction, adsorption, and ion exchange methods are frequently used to remove heavy metals from water bodies; however, these methods are expensive, consume large amounts of chemicals, and are prone to causing secondary pollution. In contrast, biological reduction methods offer milder reaction conditions, lower chromium sludge production, and are more efficient and environmentally friendly. Chromium-reducing bacteria can convert Cr(VI) into low-toxicity and low-migration Cr(III), and then achieve chromium pollution control in water bodies through solid-liquid separation. However, chromium-containing wastewater from industries such as electroplating and metal processing is generally lacking in nutrients and has poor biodegradability, which seriously affects the application effect of Cr(VI) biological reduction in treating actual chromium-containing wastewater. External nutrient sources are needed as carbon and electron donors for chromium-reducing bacteria. Typically, adding organic substances such as ethanol, lactic acid, and glucose is generally costly and impractical for treating high-concentration chromium-containing wastewater. Furthermore, actual wastewater often contains multiple heavy metal ions such as copper, cadmium, and nickel, which need to be removed simultaneously. Currently, developing low-energy-consumption, high-efficiency green biological processes for treating electroplating wastewater has become an inevitable choice.

[0003] In recent years, there has been a strong push to develop an ecological circular agriculture model centered on biogas projects. While biogas projects can generate clean energy (CH4) while treating organic waste, the resulting biogas slurry and residue are difficult to dispose of, especially the slurry. Biogas slurry is generally weakly alkaline and contains a large amount of organic matter, as well as nitrogen and phosphorus. Typically, biogas slurry can be absorbed by plants as organic fertilizer, but in practice, its application in farmland is significantly affected by seasonality, and there is insufficient land for timely utilization. Other studies have shown that, with proper formulation, biogas slurry can be used to cultivate microalgae to obtain biofuels and for recovering nitrogen fertilizer. Summary of the Invention

[0004] To address the aforementioned technical problems, this invention provides a method for treating electroplating wastewater using a combination of biogas slurry microbial reduction and iron bio-oxidation. The method utilizes pretreatment to obtain a weakly alkaline biogas slurry containing abundant organic matter, serving as a nutrient source and electron donor for chromium bioreduction. Simultaneously, natural pyrite is added to cultured, specially formulated anaerobic sludge to accelerate the bioreduction of Cr(VI) in the wastewater. Then, under the action of functional bacteria, biogenic iron oxides are produced, which adsorb and chemically bond with heavy metals, thereby removing Cd, Cu, and Ni from the wastewater. This invention improves the efficiency of biological treatment of chromium-containing industrial wastewater and, more importantly, expands the reuse methods of biogas slurry.

[0005] The specific steps are as follows:

[0006] (1) Pretreatment of biogas slurry: Collect fermented biogas slurry, let it stand for 4-6 hours, and discard the bottom sediment;

[0007] (2) Anaerobic sludge culture: Collect sludge from the anaerobic tank, wash it, and remove it with nitrogen gas. Add it to a sealed container, add tryptone medium, and add potassium dichromate solution for culture.

[0008] (3) Sludge acclimatization: Add the biogas slurry obtained after pretreatment to the anaerobic sludge cultivated in step (2). As the Cr(VI) content in the solution decreases, potassium dichromate solution is added on time for repeated acclimatization. When the Cr(VI) concentration can be reduced to below 3.0 mg / L within 1 to 3 days, the acclimatization is completed.

[0009] (4) Prepare a mixed solution of biogas slurry and comprehensive wastewater: Collect comprehensive electroplating wastewater, mix it with biogas slurry obtained from biogas slurry pretreatment to form a mixed solution, stir and adjust the pH to 5.0-6.5;

[0010] (5) Primary reaction process: Pyrite is added to the reactor of the primary reaction process, and then acclimated anaerobic sludge is added to the reactor; then, the mixed solution is added, and the hydraulic retention time is 10-16 hours.

[0011] (6) Secondary reaction process: Carbon particles are filled into the reactor of the secondary reaction process with a porosity of 80-90%; then, functional bacteria suspension is inoculated to fix the functional bacteria on the surface of the carbon particles to form a biofilm. The effluent from the primary reaction process is then introduced into the reactor of the secondary reaction process, with a hydraulic retention time of 18-24 hours.

[0012] Furthermore, the biogas slurry pretreatment also includes aeration to reduce ammonia nitrogen content;

[0013] Furthermore, the biogas slurry after aeration is sterilized by ultraviolet irradiation.

[0014] Furthermore, in the anaerobic sludge cultivation, fresh liquid culture medium and potassium dichromate solution are added every one cycle, and the cultivation is carried out for 4 cycles, with each cycle lasting 3-10 days;

[0015] Furthermore, the reactor used in the primary reaction process is an upflow reactor, which is equipped with a screen at the bottom and an exhaust port and a gas absorption device at the top of the reactor.

[0016] Furthermore, the reactor used in the secondary reaction process is an upflow reactor;

[0017] Furthermore, the charcoal particles are straw biochar;

[0018] Furthermore, the fermented biogas slurry is the filtrate produced after the pig farm's manure, urine, and flushing wastewater have been fully fermented in a biogas digester and the biogas residue has been removed;

[0019] Furthermore, after the aforementioned pretreatment of the biogas slurry, the ammonia nitrogen concentration of the fermented biogas slurry is 100–145 mg / L, and the COD concentration is 3600–4500 mg / L.

[0020] Furthermore, after adding potassium dichromate solution in step (2), the initial Cr(VI) concentration of the sludge system is 40-60 mg / L;

[0021] Furthermore, in step (3), the volume ratio of anaerobic sludge to added biogas slurry is 8-10:1;

[0022] Furthermore, in step (4), the volume ratio of the combined electroplating wastewater to the biogas slurry is 15-20:1;

[0023] Furthermore, the dosage of pyrite added is 0.8–1.2 g / L;

[0024] Furthermore, the carbon particles have a particle size of 1.5–2.5 cm;

[0025] Furthermore, the functional bacterium is Klebsiella sp. Strain M3, with accession number CCTCC M2021261; it was deposited at the China Center for Type Culture Collection on March 24, 2021.

[0026] The beneficial effects of this invention are as follows:

[0027] (1) The treated biogas slurry can be used as a carbon source and electron donor for the biological reduction of Cr(VI), so that a large amount of biogas slurry can be effectively utilized and environmental pollution can be reduced. At the same time, the application of biogas slurry reduces the amount of nutrients used in the biological reduction of Cr(VI) and reduces the cost of wastewater treatment.

[0028] (2) The use of a small amount of pyrite in the primary bioreactor can promote the bioreduction process of Cr(VI) and accelerate the reaction progress, while the generated Fe 2+ Ions can serve as an iron source for functional bacteria during the secondary reaction process, which is beneficial for producing iron oxides with high adsorption capacity.

[0029] (3) Functional bacteria oxidize Fe in the secondary reaction 2+ The iron oxides generated by the ions can continue to adsorb heavy metals such as Cr(VI), Cd, Cu, and Ni in the primary effluent, greatly reducing the concentration of heavy metals in the final effluent and improving wastewater treatment efficiency.

[0030] (4) The organic matter in the biogas slurry can serve as a nutrient source for the primary biological reduction of Cr(VI) and as a nutrient source for the functional bacteria in the secondary reaction. Moreover, the excess organic matter can be adsorbed and retained by the straw biochar filling the secondary reaction, thereby ensuring that the COD and ammonia nitrogen in the effluent meet the discharge standards.
