[0002] Although traditional sewage treatment processes can effectively remove pollutants from sewage, there are several significant problems.

[0003] First, traditional processes usually fail to effectively recover the chemical energy of organic matter in sewage, resulting in a waste of resources. In particular, when the sewage quality changes greatly, the treatment efficiency is often affected, and the treatment of high-concentration organic wastewater is particularly difficult. This not only limits the efficiency of the sewage treatment process, but also increases the treatment cost.

[0005] In order to overcome these problems, microbial fuel cell technology has gradually attracted attention in recent years. Microbial fuel cells are a technology that combines the metabolic activities of microorganisms with electrochemical reactions, and can directly convert chemical energy in organic matter into electrical energy. This technology can use organic waste such as sewage and wastewater as fuel to generate electricity, achieve energy recovery and reduce energy consumption, and has strong sustainability. However, the energy conversion efficiency and treatment effect of a single microbial fuel cell technology are still limited when treating complex sewage.

[0032] Embodiment 2 A method for using a pulsating anaerobic microbial multiphase fluidized bed hydrogen-electricity cogeneration system comprises the following steps: Step S1, preparing a microbial membrane.

[0033] Step S11, inoculate and culture Escherichia coli ( Escherichia coli )、Clostridium( Clostridium butyricum )、Desulfovibrio sulphuri Desulfovibrio desulfuricans ) and cultured at 37°C. Clostridium ( Clostridium butyricum )、Desulfovibrio sulphuri Desulfovibrio desulfuricans ) need to grow in an anaerobic environment, so operations and cultivation should be carried out in an anaerobic growth chamber.

[0034] The carrier used was modified polypropylene particles, and the modification method was as follows: first, the polypropylene particles were polished with sandpaper to increase the roughness of the surface, and then the particles were immersed in a 10mol / L hydrochloric acid solution for half an hour, and the particles were rinsed in deionized water for 5 times, and dried in a drying oven at 60°C for 3 hours. After the bacterial growth was stable, the prepared modified polypropylene particles were added to the three bacterial solutions to start the formation of biofilms, so that the microorganisms attached to the surface of the modified polypropylene particles and grew, and hydrogen-producing microbial films were obtained after 48 hours of cultivation.

[0035] Step S12, inoculate and culture Shewanella ( Shewanella oneidensis ), Geobacillus sulfur-reducing Geobacter sulfurreducens), cultured at 37°C, and after the bacterial growth stabilized, coconut shell activated carbon particles with a diameter of 1 mm were added to initiate the formation of biofilm to obtain an electrogenic biofilm.

[0036] Step S13: After grinding and screening the magnetite, use ultrasonic precipitation method to prepare nano Fe3O4, then mix the sludge obtained from the sewage plant with the nano Fe3O4, use wastewater and garbage leachate as nutrients for gradient domestication, and obtain a microbial film containing nano Fe3O4 at 25-35°C.

[0037] The mixing ratio of wastewater and garbage leachate is 10:1.

[0038] Step S2, start the first peristaltic pump 4, open the first electric valve 5 and the second electric valve 13, inject the sewage in the constant temperature liquid storage tank 1 into the anode chamber 2 and the hydrogen production reaction chamber 3, until the sewage occupies 95% of the volume of the anode chamber 2 and 100% of the volume of the hydrogen production reaction chamber 3, and close the first electric valve 5.

[0039] The electricity-producing biofilm particles and the microbial membrane particles containing nano-Fe3O4 are added into the anode chamber 2; the hydrogen-producing microbial membrane particles are added into the particle confinement network 20 in the hydrogen-producing reaction chamber 3.

[0040] The second peristaltic pump 25 and the third peristaltic pump 26 are started, and the third electric valve 23, the pulsating return water solenoid valve 24, and the signal generator 50 are opened, so that the sewage in the hydrogen production reaction chamber 3 and the by-products in the fermentation process such as acetic acid, butyric acid and the like enter the anode chamber 2 through the steady liquid flow mother pipe 28 and the pulsating liquid flow mother pipe 27, wherein the signal generator 50 is based on the following example: Figure 5 The three pulsation curves shown in the figure respectively output electrical signals to control the opening of the pulsating return water electromagnetic valve 24, thereby generating three forms of pulsating liquid flows. The steady liquid flow enters through the lower distributor 29-2 of the pulsating liquid flow nozzle 29, and the pulsating liquid flow is ejected through the pulsating liquid flow outlet 29-1. After the pulsating liquid flow is ejected, it disturbs the flow field in the anode chamber 2.

[0041] Step S3, after the reaction starts, the first gas valve 15 is opened to allow the hydrogen and carbon dioxide produced in the hydrogen production reaction chamber 3 to be introduced into the anode chamber 2 through the gas connecting pipe 35, and bubbles are generated by the bubble generator 32 at the bottom of the anode chamber 2 to further disturb the flow field.

[0042] The second gas valve 38 is opened to allow the mixed gas produced by the reaction to enter the gas bag 39 for collection, and is first tested by a gas chromatograph 40. After the test, 50% of the gas is classified and purified in a pressure swing adsorption hydrogen purifier 48, and the other 50% is synthesized into methanol in a methanol synthesis catalytic reactor 10.

[0043] Step S4, during the sewage treatment process, 50% of the electrical energy generated in the anode chamber 2 is introduced into the hydrogen production reaction chamber 3, and the bacterial metabolism process is promoted by applying voltage to accelerate the decomposition of organic matter and the production of hydrogen, and the other 50% is stored in the supercapacitor 46.

[0044] The voltage data is recorded every 30 minutes using the monitoring computer 47, and the water quality is tested every 24 hours using the water quality tester 45.

[0045] When the voltage drops to 100 mV and the COD content in the sewage is less than 100 mg / L, the ammonia nitrogen content is less than 25 mg / L and the phosphorus content is less than 3 mg / L, the fourth electric valve 41 is opened to discharge the treated sewage into the liquid storage tank 42. After the sewage in the anode chamber 2 and the hydrogen production reaction chamber 3 is drained, the fourth electric valve 41 is closed.

[0046] New sewage is continuously added from the constant temperature liquid storage tank 1 to the hydrogen production reaction chamber 3 and the anode chamber 2 to complete a cycle of sewage replacement.

[0047] It is worth noting that the contents not elaborated in detail in the present invention are all prior art and are well known to those skilled in the art.

[0048] Therefore, the present invention adopts the above-mentioned pulsating anaerobic microbial multiphase fluidized bed hydrogen-electricity cogeneration system and use method, organically combines microbial anaerobic fermentation hydrogen production with microbial fuel cell technology, realizes complementary advantages, and makes full use of chemical energy in sewage in a step-by-step manner, so that the low-grade energy conversion efficiency of the system is further improved compared with a single technical form. A large amount of by-products such as acetic acid and butyric acid are produced during the fermentation hydrogen production process, and these by-products can be used in microbial fuel cells. At the same time, a special structure biofilm fluidized bed with process integrated enhancement is used to replace the traditional suspended microbial reactor to further improve the mass transfer and reaction efficiency of the system.

[0049] Finally, it should be noted that the above embodiments are only used to illustrate the technical solution of the present invention rather than to limit it.
