Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] The invention belongs to the field of resource and environmental technology, and in particular to a method for reducing phosphorus loss in agricultural biomass waste by hydrotalcite-assisted hydrothermal carbonization. Background Art
[0002] A large amount of waste is generated during agricultural production, and agricultural biomass waste is a rich source of carbon, nitrogen and phosphorus. However, there is a lack of feasible and effective methods to recycle these waste resources, which has caused serious pollution. The second national pollution source census bulletin shows that the total phosphorus emissions from the national planting industry are 76,200 tons, and the total phosphorus emissions from the national livestock and poultry breeding industry are 119,700 tons, accounting for 37.95% of the total phosphorus emissions of national water pollutants, which is far more than the total phosphorus emissions of industrial sewage sludge. High concentrations of phosphorus emissions will lead to eutrophication of water bodies and cause environmental problems such as algal blooms. Hydrothermal carbonization has received increasing attention due to its potential in reduction, harmless treatment and nutrient recovery.
[0003] It is difficult to recover all phosphorus from agricultural biomass wastes due to the complex existence of phosphorus, mainly including phosphorus bound to extracellular polymeric substances (orthophosphate, DNA, polyphosphate) and metal phosphates as well as inorganic phosphorus. Although hydrothermal carbonization of agricultural biomass wastes has been widely adopted, a considerable proportion (about 49%) of residual phosphorus is still lost in the hydrothermal fluid. At present, most studies focus on converting organic phosphates and pyrophosphates in agricultural biomass wastes into easily recoverable orthophosphates through acid / alkali pretreatment, hydrothermal pretreatment or anaerobic digestion, but there is still a lack of methods for further recovery of phosphorus. In the treatment of agricultural biomass wastes by hydrothermal carbonization, phosphorus is usually recovered by producing hydrothermal charcoal, so it is urgent to develop methods for effectively enriching phosphorus into hydrothermal charcoal. Summary of the invention

In the figure, different lowercase letters between the treatment groups indicate significant differences ( P <0.05). DETAILED DESCRIPTION
[0032] The present invention aims to provide a method for treating agricultural biomass waste and recovering phosphorus therein for resource utilization. The method utilizes hydrothermal carbonization to improve the process, overcomes the problem of phosphorus release from refractory substances and conversion of organic phosphorus, and combines hydrotalcite catalytic adsorption technology to solve the problem of phosphorus loss in the liquid phase and low recovery efficiency.
[0033] The present invention adopts the following technical solution:
[0034] The present invention provides a method for reducing phosphorus loss from agricultural biomass waste by hydrotalcite-assisted hydrothermal carbonization, comprising the following steps:
[0035] (1) Thermal hydrolysis stage: agricultural biomass waste is introduced into a hydrothermal reactor, an acidic solution is added, and the reaction temperature of the reactor is adjusted to carry out thermal hydrolysis reaction at a short residence time;
[0036] (2) Carbonization polymerization stage: Add magnesium-iron-copper hydrotalcite to the reactor after the reaction in step (1) is completed, and the reaction temperature is set to a longer residence time to perform hydrothermal carbonization polymerization to generate hydrothermal carbon.
[0037] In the above method, in step (1), the moisture content of the agricultural biomass waste is adjusted to 70% to 95% after entering the reactor, specifically 80% to 90%, in order to ensure a certain amount of water solvent required for the hydrothermal carbonization reaction and to process as much organic matter in the agricultural biomass waste as possible.
[0038] The addition of the acidic solution is mainly used to adjust the initial pH of the solution in the reactor to 3-6. The acidic solution can be an acidic hydrothermal liquid after hydrothermal carbonization of agricultural biomass waste. During the hydrothermal carbonization process, high-concentration hydrothermal liquid wastewater rich in organic acids will be produced simultaneously as a by-product. Generally, the hydrothermal liquid prepared by hydrothermal pretreatment of manure has a higher concentration of organic acid content (4.3g / L ~15.6g / L); in particular, the hydrothermal liquid of rice husks, sawdust, straw, etc. after hydrothermal carbonization has lower acidity, and the lowest pH can reach 3.5, which can be used as a natural acidic solvent.
[0039] The agricultural biomass waste is mixed with the acidic solution at a solid-liquid ratio of 1-3 g:9 mL.
[0040] The method is to carry out a hydrothermal carbonization reaction in two steps. In step (1), the temperature of the reactor is first adjusted to 120°C to 260°C, and the residence time is 0.5h to 2h to fully hydrolyze the manure, so that phosphorus is released to achieve organic phosphorus conversion. The acid catalytic decomposition can be appropriately carried out at low energy consumption, and the reaction temperature can be specifically 150°C, 180°C, 200°C, 220°C, 240°C and 260°C, and the residence time can be specifically 0.5h, 1h and 2h.
[0041] In step (2), the magnesium-iron-copper hydrotalcite is a layered metal hydroxide having acid and base sites and is prepared by a coprecipitation method, that is, according to M 3+ :M 2+=1:2 molar ratio of metal cations, Fe(NO3)3·9H2O, Mg(NO3)2·6H2O and Cu(NO3)2·3H2O are combined in pairs or mixed into a solution, and then the mixed solution is dropped into a Na2CO3 solution with a concentration of 5.3 mg / mL, the volume ratio is (2-3):1, the dropping rate is 1-2s / d and accompanied by stirring at a speed of 300r / min; then, the pH value is stabilized at 10.5±0.2 by adding NaOH solution, stirred for 3 hours and then allowed to stand for 18 hours, and the bottom layer of the sediment is collected and dried in an oven at 65°C for 12 hours to obtain various types of hydrotalcite.
[0042] In the scanning electron microscope (SEM) images of various hydrotalcites, MgFe hydrotalcite has a flaky structure, the surface structure of CuFe hydrotalcite contains many small flocculent grains, and the surface structure of MgFeCu hydrotalcite shows both flaky and flocculent grains attached, all showing a good crystalline state. The signal intensity and mass ratio of the surface elements of each hydrotalcite are reflected by the energy dispersive spectrometer (EDS). The mass ratio of Cu element in MgFe hydrotalcite is 0wt%, and the mass of Mg element is relatively high; while the mass ratio of Mg element in CuFe hydrotalcite is 0wt%, and the mass of Cu element is relatively high, both of which are typical hydrotalcite target products.
[0043] The characterization diagrams of the three types of hydrotalcite are shown in Figure 1~Figure 3 ,in, Figure 1 The scanning electron microscope and energy spectrum characterization diagram of magnesium-iron hydrotalcite. Figure 2 The scanning electron microscope and energy spectrum characterization diagram of copper-iron hydrotalcite. Figure 3 These are the scanning electron microscope and energy spectrum characterization images of magnesium-iron-copper hydrotalcite.
[0044] The mass ratio of the added amount of the hydrotalcite to the dry matter of the agricultural biomass waste is (0.5-1):10, specifically 0.5:10 or 1:10.
[0045] In the method, the reaction temperature set in step (2) is 200°C to 280°C, and the residence time is 2h to 4h, mainly to further realize the polymerization of carbonized materials. Compared with step (1), the reaction temperature and residence time should be longer, but considering the maximization of solid phase yield, the temperature should not be too high to avoid excessive liquefaction or gasification. The specific reaction temperature can be 220°C, 240°C and 260°C, and the residence time can be 2h, 3h and 4h.
[0046] Furthermore, the hydrothermal fluid and hydrothermal charcoal are collected by vacuum filtration, the hydrotalcite can be reused through roasting and ion exchange, and the phosphorus-rich hydrothermal charcoal has great potential in agricultural and industrial applications.
[0047] The following examples are used to illustrate the present invention, but are not intended to limit the scope of the present invention. Unless otherwise specified, the technical means used in the examples are conventional means well known to those skilled in the art, and the raw materials used are all commercially available products.
[0048] In the following examples and comparative examples, the raw materials used are duck manure with high phosphorus content and sawdust and rice husk with high lignocellulose content. After removing obvious impurities, they are placed in an oven and dried at 105° C. until the moisture content no longer changes. After grinding, they are passed through a 40-mesh steel sieve for later use.
