Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This invention relates to the fields of wastewater treatment technology and ethanol biorefining technology, and particularly to a method for simultaneously treating acidic mine wastewater at both the source and end of the process, coupled with ethanol biorefining. Background Technology
[0002] Biofuels have become an attractive alternative to fossil fuels due to their renewable nature, with bioethanol being the most common biofuel product. First-generation bioethanol primarily utilizes glucose extracted from edible starch as a raw material, posing a threat to food supplies. To address this conflict, the focus has shifted to utilizing inedible and renewable lignocellulosic biomass. However, due to the recalcitrant nature of lignocellulosic biomass, its conversion into fermentable sugars typically requires pretreatment. Dilute acid pretreatment is highly efficient and relatively inexpensive, thus gaining widespread industrial application. However, dilute acid pretreatment often results in wastewater streams rich in H₂SO₄ and hemicellulose-derived sugars, leading to significant wastewater treatment costs.
[0003] Acid mine wastewater (AMD) is highly acidic wastewater generated during the oxidation of sulfide minerals. It is characterized by high levels of heavy metals and sulfates, and improper management can cause severe soil and water pollution, posing a serious threat to human health. AMD management is mainly divided into two categories: end-of-pipe treatment and source control. In end-of-pipe treatment technologies, bioremediation has become an effective approach to AMD control due to its excellent remediation capabilities. This method mainly relies on sulfate-reducing bacteria (SRB) to reduce sulfates in AMD to hydrogen sulfide, but often requires expensive carbon sources. In source control technologies, surface passivation offers long-lasting preventative effects against AMD and has become a robust technology for preventing AMD formation. However, the high cost of passivating agents and the passivation process is a major obstacle to the application of surface passivation.
[0004] The combined treatment of lignocellulose and acidic mine wastewater provides a novel approach to waste management and value-added processing. Summary of the Invention

The hemicellulose released during the pretreatment process can serve as a carbon source for the bioremediation of AMD. The remaining lignin serves as a passivating agent, thereby achieving source treatment of AMD and realizing the full utilization of lignocellulose biomass components.

[0023] Figure 1 This is a schematic diagram of the process for simultaneously treating the source and end of acidic mine wastewater in a specific embodiment of the present invention, involving the coupling of ethanol biorefining. Detailed Implementation
[0024] This invention provides a method for simultaneously treating the source and end of acid mine wastewater in ethanol biorefining, comprising the following steps:
[0025] 1) Mix lignocellulose biomass and acid mine wastewater (AMD), and then perform solid-liquid separation on the treated slurry to obtain a solid residue rich in cellulose and lignin and a filtrate rich in hemicellulose.
[0026] 2) After washing the solid residue rich in cellulose and lignin described in step 1) to neutral, add buffer solution and cellulase, perform enzymatic hydrolysis, and then separate the solid and liquid to obtain filter residue and filtrate rich in fermentable sugars; inoculate the filtrate rich in fermentable sugars with brewer's yeast for ethanol fermentation.
[0027] 3) Mix the filter residue from step 2) with sodium hydroxide solution, treat and then separate the solid and liquid to obtain a lignin solution; passivate the lignin solution with pyrite, react and then separate the solid and liquid, freeze-dry to obtain passivated pyrite.
[0028] This invention utilizes acidic mine wastewater and renewable lignocellulosic biomass (such as corn cobs) as raw materials to produce bioethanol, achieving green recycling of resources and low-cost management of AMD (Alternative Dioxide). The invention uses cellulose from lignocellulosic biomass (such as corn cobs) for ethanol production, and uses hemicellulose remaining in the AMD after AMD pretreatment as a carbon source for SRB (sulfate-reducing sulfide minerals), achieving sulfate reduction and heavy metal removal in AMD. Simultaneously, waste lignin is used to passivate sulfide minerals, achieving source control of AMD. This invention achieves full utilization of lignocellulosic biomass (such as corn cobs), improves the utilization rate of lignocellulosic biomass (such as corn cobs), reduces waste generation, provides a new approach to AMD management, and lowers the cost of ethanol refineries.
[0029] This invention mixes lignocellulose biomass with acidic mine wastewater, and then performs solid-liquid separation on the treated slurry to obtain a solid residue rich in cellulose and lignin and a filtrate rich in hemicellulose.
[0030] The lignocellulose biomass used in this invention is selected from one or more of corn cobs, corn stalks, wheat stalks, rice stalks, rapeseed stalks, and sugarcane bagasse; the lignocellulose biomass accounts for 10-20% of the mass of acidic mine wastewater. This invention uses acidic mine wastewater (AMD) instead of traditional dilute acid to pretreat the lignocellulose biomass, reducing the cost of pretreatment and subsequent treatment of H2SO4-rich wastewater.
[0031] In this invention, the temperature for treating the mixture of lignocellulose biomass and acidic mine wastewater is 90–120°C, and the time is 1–4 hours. The treated slurry is then subjected to solid-liquid separation to obtain a solid residue rich in cellulose and lignin and a filtrate rich in hemicellulose.
[0032] The filtrate rich in hemicellulose was inoculated with sulfate-reducing bacteria for anaerobic culture to reduce and remove sulfates and heavy metals from AMD. The inoculum size of sulfate-reducing bacteria was 20–40% (v / v).
[0033] In this invention, the solid residue rich in cellulose and lignin obtained in step 1) is washed with water until neutral, then buffer solution and cellulase are added, followed by enzymatic hydrolysis and solid-liquid separation to obtain filter residue and filtrate rich in fermentable sugars.
[0034] In this invention, the solid content of the mixture after adding buffer and cellulase is 10-15%; the buffer is an acetate or citrate buffer; the pH of the buffer is 5.0-5.5. The amount of cellulase used in this invention is 5-20 mg / g of solid residue; the cellulase is preferably Novozymes CTec 3. The enzymatic hydrolysis time in this invention is 46-50 h; the enzymatic hydrolysis temperature is 45-55 °C. After enzymatic hydrolysis, solid-liquid separation is performed to obtain a lignin-rich filter residue and a filtrate rich in fermentable sugars.
[0035] In this invention, the filtrate rich in fermentable sugars is inoculated with Saccharomyces cerevisiae for ethanol fermentation. The Saccharomyces cerevisiae is Saccharomyces cerevisiae ATCC 26603.
[0036] In this invention, the lignin-rich filter residue is mixed with a sodium hydroxide solution, and after treatment, solid-liquid separation is performed to obtain a lignin solution. The lignin solution is then passivated with pyrite, and after the reaction, solid-liquid separation is performed, followed by freeze-drying to obtain passivated pyrite.
[0037] The concentration of the sodium hydroxide solution in this invention is 0.05–0.5 mol / L; the solid content of the filter residue after mixing with the sodium hydroxide solution is 5–15%. The temperature for treating the filter residue and sodium hydroxide solution after mixing is 115–125°C, and the time is 55–65 min.
[0038] In this invention, pyrite accounts for 1-2% of the lignin solution mass. This invention utilizes lignin extracted from lignocellulosic biomass waste to passivate pyrite, controlling AMD formation at its source. Lignin acts as a passivating agent, forming a passivation film on the pyrite surface, thereby reducing or preventing the erosion of metal minerals by oxygen or other oxidants, and decreasing AMD formation. The passivation treatment temperature is 25-30℃, and the passivation time is 230-250 min. After the passivation reaction, solid and liquid are separated, and the resulting solid residue is freeze-dried to obtain passivated pyrite.
[0039] In this invention, passivated pyrite is preferably added to a hydrochloric acid solution with pH=1 to conduct an acid leaching experiment to verify the passivation efficiency of pyrite. The amount of passivated pyrite added is 0.6g / 100ml hydrochloric acid solution.
[0040] Figure 1 This is a schematic diagram illustrating the treatment process of coupled waste biological straw and acidic mine wastewater in certain embodiments of the present invention. Figure 1It is known that: lignocellulose biomass and AMD are mixed and pretreated at 90-120℃ for 1-4 hours, followed by solid-liquid separation to obtain filtrate and filter residue. The filtrate is then used for SRB bioremediation. The filter residue is enzymatically hydrolyzed with cellulase at 55℃ for 48 hours, and the product is then separated into solid and liquid components to obtain filtrate and filter residue again. The filtrate is then used for ethanol fermentation. The obtained filter residue is mixed with 0.2 mol / L NaOH solution and treated at 120℃ for 1 hour, followed by solid-liquid separation to obtain lignin extract. The lignin extract is then passivated with pyrite to obtain passivated pyrite.
