Description

Technical Field

[0001] The present invention relates to the technical field of sewage treatment, and particularly relates to a pulsating anaerobic microbial multiphase fluidized bed hydrogen-electricity combined supply system and a using method thereof. Background Art

[0002] In traditional sewage treatment processes, although pollutants in sewage can be effectively removed, several significant problems exist.

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

[0004] Secondly, most existing sewage treatment processes rely on physical and chemical methods, which have high energy consumption, and chemical agents are often required during the treatment process, further increasing the treatment cost and potentially bringing the risk of secondary pollution.

[0005] To overcome these problems, in recent years, microbial fuel cell technology has gradually attracted attention. A microbial fuel cell is a technology that combines the metabolic activities of microorganisms with electrochemical reactions and can directly convert the chemical energy in organic matter into electrical energy. This technology can use organic waste such as sewage and wastewater as fuel to generate electricity, achieving energy recovery and reducing 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.

[0006] Meanwhile, microbial hydrogen production by fermentation technology has also received much attention. This technology can decompose organic matter (such as glucose and starch) in sewage through anaerobic fermentation of microorganisms to produce hydrogen, and has the potential to become a clean energy production method. However, traditional microbial hydrogen production by fermentation processes still face many challenges in terms of treatment efficiency, energy conversion efficiency, and product separation. Summary of the Invention

[0018] The present invention also provides a method for using the pulsating anaerobic microbial multiphase fluidized bed hydrogen-electricity combined supply system as described above, including the following steps:

[0019] Step S1, prepare a microbial film;

[0020] Step S11, inoculate and culture Escherichia coli, Clostridium, and Desulfovibrio respectively, and culture at 37°C. After the bacteria grow stably, add the prepared modified polypropylene particles to the three bacterial solutions, start the formation of the biofilm, and make the microorganisms attach to the surface of the modified polypropylene particles and grow. After 48 hours of culture, a hydrogen-producing microbial film is obtained;

[0021] Step S12, inoculate and culture Shewanella and Geobacter sulfurreducens respectively, and culture at 37°C. After the bacteria grow stably, add coconut shell activated carbon particles with a diameter of 1 mm, start the formation of the biofilm, and obtain an electricity-producing biofilm;

[0023] Step S2, start the first peristaltic pump, open the first electric valve and the second electric valve, and inject the sewage in the constant temperature liquid storage tank into the anode chamber and the hydrogen production reaction chamber until the sewage accounts for 95% of the volume of the anode chamber and 100% of the volume of the hydrogen production reaction chamber, and then close the first electric valve;

[0024] Add the electricity-producing biofilm particles and the microbial film particles containing nano-Fe3O4 to the anode chamber, and add the hydrogen-producing microbial film particles to the particle limit network in the hydrogen production reaction chamber;

[0025] Start the second peristaltic pump and the third peristaltic pump, open the third electric valve, the pulsating return water solenoid valve, and the signal generator, so that the sewage in the hydrogen production reaction chamber and the by-products during the fermentation process enter the anode chamber through the steady liquid flow main pipe and the pulsating liquid flow main pipe. Among them, the steady liquid flow enters through the lower distributor of the pulsating liquid flow nozzle, and the pulsating liquid flow is ejected from the pulsating liquid flow outlet. After the pulsating liquid flow is ejected, it disturbs the flow field in the anode chamber;

[0026] Step S3, after the reaction starts, open the first gas valve so that the hydrogen and carbon dioxide generated in the hydrogen production reaction chamber are introduced into the anode chamber through the gas communication pipe, and bubbles are generated through the bubble generator at the bottom of the anode chamber to further disturb the flow field;

[0027] Open the second gas valve to collect the mixed gas generated by the reaction into the gas bag. First, detect it with a gas chromatograph analyzer. After the detection is completed, classify and purify 50% of the gas in the pressure swing adsorption hydrogen purifier, and synthesize methanol with the other 50% in the methanol synthesis catalytic reactor;

[0028] Step S4, during the sewage treatment process, 50% of the electric energy generated in the anode chamber is introduced into the hydrogen production reaction chamber to promote the bacterial metabolism process by applying voltage, accelerating the decomposition of organic matter and the generation of hydrogen, and the other 50% is stored in the supercapacitor;

[0029] Use the monitoring computer to record the voltage data every 30 minutes, and use the water quality detector to detect the water quality every 24 hours;

[0030] 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 element content is less than 3 mg / L, open the fourth electric valve to discharge the treated sewage into the liquid storage tank. After the sewage in the anode chamber and the hydrogen production reaction chamber is drained, close the fourth electric valve;

[0031] Continue to supplement new sewage from the constant temperature liquid storage pool into the hydrogen production reaction chamber and the anode chamber to complete the replacement of sewage in one cycle.

[0032] Preferably, the preparation method of the modified polypropylene particles is as follows: First, polish the polypropylene particles with sandpaper to increase the surface roughness. Immerse the polished particles in a 10 mol / L hydrochloric acid solution for half an hour. Rinse the taken-out particles 5 times in deionized water and dry them in a drying oven at 60 °C for 3 h to obtain the modified polypropylene particles.

[0033] Therefore, the present invention adopts the above-mentioned pulsating anaerobic microbial multiphase fluidized bed hydrogen-electricity co-supply system and its use method, and the beneficial technical effects are as follows: It organically combines microbial anaerobic fermentation for hydrogen production and microbial fuel cell technology, realizes complementary advantages, and makes full use of the chemical energy in sewage in a cascaded manner, further improving the conversion efficiency of low-grade energy in the system compared with a single technical form. Since the theoretical energy conversion rate of microbial anaerobic fermentation for hydrogen production is higher than the Coulomb efficiency of microbial fuel cells that can be mass-produced at present, this system screens strains and supplies all the sugars with a relatively high content in the original sewage and that can be consumed by both the hydrogen production and power generation links to the microbial anaerobic fermentation for hydrogen production link, and uses substances such as amino acids and organic acids that cannot be metabolized by hydrogen-producing bacteria as substrates for microbial fuel cells, realizing a cascaded and efficient conversion of low-grade chemical energy into high-grade energy.

[0055] Embodiment 2

[0056] A method for using a pulsating anaerobic microorganism multiphase fluidized bed hydrogen-electricity combined supply system includes the following steps:

[0057] Step S1, prepare a microbial film.

[0058] Step S11, respectively inoculate and culture Escherichia coli ( Escherichia coli ), Clostridium ( Clostridium butyricum ), Desulfovibrio ( Desulfovibrio desulfuricans ), and culture at 37°C. Among them, Clostridium ( Clostridium butyricum ), Desulfovibrio ( Desulfovibrio desulfuricans ) need to grow in an anaerobic environment. Therefore, the operation and culture should be carried out in an anaerobic growth chamber.

[0059] The carrier used is modified polypropylene particles. The modification method is as follows: First, polish the polypropylene particles with sandpaper to increase their surface roughness. Then, immerse the particles in a 10 mol / L hydrochloric acid solution for half an hour. Rinse the taken-out particles 5 times in deionized water and dry them in a drying oven at 60°C for 3 h. After the bacteria grow stably, add the prepared modified polypropylene particles to the three kinds of bacterial solutions to initiate the formation of the biofilm, so that the microorganisms attach to the surface of the modified polypropylene particles and grow. After 48 h of culture, a hydrogen-producing microbial film is obtained.

[0060] Step S12, respectively inoculate and culture Shewanella ( Shewanella oneidensis ), Geobacter sulfurreducens ( Geobacter sulfurreducens ), and culture at 37°C. After the bacteria grow stably, add coconut shell activated carbon particles with a diameter of 1 mm to initiate the formation of the biofilm to obtain an electricity-producing biofilm.

[0061] Step S13: After grinding and screening magnetite, prepare nano-Fe3O4 using the ultrasonic precipitation method. Then, mix the sludge obtained from the sewage treatment plant with nano-Fe3O4, and use wastewater and garbage leachate as nutrients for gradient acclimation. Within a temperature range of 25 - 35°C, obtain a microbial film containing nano-Fe3O4.

[0062] Among them, the mixing ratio of wastewater and garbage leachate is 10:1.

[0063] Step S2: Start the first peristaltic pump 4, open the first electric valve 5 and the second electric valve 13, and 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 accounts for 95% of the volume of the anode chamber 2 and 100% of the volume of the hydrogen production reaction chamber 3, then close the first electric valve 5.

[0064] Add the electrogenic biofilm particles and the microbial film particles containing nano-Fe3O4 into the anode chamber 2; add the hydrogen-producing microbial film particles into the particle confinement network 20 in the hydrogen production reaction chamber 3.

[0065] Start the second peristaltic pump 25 and the third peristaltic pump 26, open the third electric valve 23, the pulsating return water solenoid valve 24, and the signal generator 50, so that the sewage in the hydrogen production reaction chamber 3 and by-products such as acetic acid and butyric acid during the fermentation process enter the anode chamber 2 through the stable liquid flow main pipe 28 and the pulsating liquid flow main pipe 27. Among them, the signal generator 50 controls the opening degree of the pulsating return water solenoid valve 24 according to 3 Figure 5 types of pulsating curves as shown, and outputs electrical signals to generate 3 forms of pulsating liquid flows. The stable liquid flow enters through the lower distributor 29-2 of the pulsating liquid flow nozzle 29, and the pulsating liquid flow sprays out through the pulsating liquid flow outlet 29-1.

[0066] Step S3: After the reaction starts, open the first gas valve 15, so that the hydrogen and carbon dioxide generated in the hydrogen production reaction chamber 3 are introduced into the anode chamber 2 through the gas communication pipe 35, and bubbles are generated through the bubble generator 32 at the bottom of the anode chamber 2 to further disturb the flow field.

[0067] Open the second gas valve 38 to collect the mixed gas generated by the reaction into the gas bag 39. First, detect it with a gas chromatograph analyzer 40. After the detection is completed, classify and purify 50% of the gas in the pressure swing adsorption hydrogen purifier 48, and synthesize methanol with 50% in the methanol synthesis catalytic reactor 10.

[0068] Step S4: During the sewage treatment process, 50% of the electric energy generated in the anode chamber 2 is introduced into the hydrogen production reaction chamber 3 to promote the bacterial metabolism process by applying voltage, accelerating the decomposition of organic matter and the production of hydrogen. The other 50% is stored in the supercapacitor 46.

[0069] The monitoring computer 47 records the voltage data every 30 minutes, and the water quality detector 45 detects the water quality every 24 hours.

[0070] 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 element 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.

[0071] New sewage is continuously replenished from the constant temperature liquid storage pool 1 into the hydrogen production reaction chamber 3 and the anode chamber 2 to complete the replacement of sewage in one cycle.

[0072] It should be noted that the content not elaborated in detail in the present invention is the prior art and is well known to those skilled in the art.

[0073] Therefore, the present invention adopts the above-mentioned pulsating anaerobic microbial multiphase fluidized bed hydrogen-electricity combined supply system and its usage method, which organically combines the microbial anaerobic fermentation for hydrogen production and the microbial fuel cell technology, realizes complementary advantages, and makes full use of the chemical energy in the sewage in a cascaded manner, so that the conversion efficiency of the low-grade energy of the system is further improved compared with the single technical form. A large number of by-products such as acetic acid and butyric acid are generated during the hydrogen production by fermentation, and these by-products can be utilized in the microbial fuel cell. At the same time, the integrated and enhanced special structure biofilm method fluidized bed is used in the process to replace the traditional suspended microbial reactor, further improving the mass transfer and reaction efficiency of the system.
