Description

Technical Field

[0001] The invention belongs to the field of biological treatment devices for nitrogen- and sulfur-containing organic wastewater, and particularly relates to a self-aeration-stirring baffle-type high-efficiency anaerobic bioreactor and a method. Background Art

[0002] Coal is an important component of China's primary energy, accounting for about 65-70% of total primary energy consumption. However, coal is also one of the typical high-water-consuming industries. Coal chemical wastewater is a typical difficult-to-degrade industrial wastewater produced by various coal processing processes, with the characteristics of high organic matter, high ammonia nitrogen, high sulfate, etc. Among them, organic matter often contains a variety of toxic substances, including phenols, nitrogen-containing heterocycles (NHCs), polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons (PAHs), etc., of which phenols often account for as much as 50-60%. Anaerobic biological treatment is widely used in coal chemical wastewater treatment due to its economy and high efficiency, but it also faces difficulties such as complex bacterial structure in the anaerobic degradation process caused by complex pollutants in wastewater, easy accumulation of toxic intermediates, and limited biological metabolic activity.

[0003] For complex pollutants such as carbon, nitrogen, and sulfur in organic wastewater, biological treatment processes often include anaerobic digestion, denitrification, and sulfate reduction. Specifically, anaerobic digestion includes hydrolysis and acidification, hydrogen and acetic acid production, and methanogenesis; denitrification is the process by which nitrates are reduced to nitrogen gas from organic matter by denitrifying microorganisms; and sulfate reduction is the process by which sulfate is reduced to H2S from organic or inorganic matter by sulfate-reducing microorganisms. It is important to note that sulfide is not only corrosive to metals but also toxic and inhibitory to bacterial flora, making it a difficult problem that urgently needs to be addressed in anaerobic biological treatment.

[0004] Faced with the reality of the coexistence of complex pollutants such as carbon, nitrogen and sulfur in wastewater from coal chemical industries, as well as the different process characteristics of biological treatment reactions of various pollutants, there is an urgent need to develop a new type of high-efficiency anaerobic biological device.

DETAILED DESCRIPTION

[0037] The present invention will be further described and illustrated below with reference to the accompanying drawings and specific embodiments. The technical features of each embodiment of the present invention may be combined accordingly, provided that there is no conflict between them.

[0038] like Figure 1As shown, as a preferred embodiment of the present invention, this embodiment provides a self-air-agitated baffle-type high-efficiency anaerobic bioreactor. The anaerobic bioreactor is composed of a first reaction zone I, a second reaction zone II, a third reaction zone III and a three-phase separation zone IV, which are interconnected from bottom to top. In actual application, in order to better achieve the coordinated treatment effect of carbon, nitrogen and sulfur in complex organic wastewater, the volume ratio of the first reaction zone I, the second reaction zone II, the third reaction zone III and the three-phase separation zone IV is (1-2): 1: 1: (2-4). The various structures and connection methods of the device will be described in detail below.

[0039] In the device provided herein, the first reaction zone I of the anaerobic bioreactor has an arc-shaped bottom structure. A sludge outlet 1 is located at the lowest point of the arc structure for regular sludge discharge. A return water inlet 2 and an inlet pipe 4 are also provided on the sidewall of the first reaction zone I. The return water inlet 2 and the inlet pipe 4 are located at equal heights. A water distributor 3 is installed at one end of the inlet pipe 4 within the first reaction zone I, evenly distributing the treated wastewater within the first reaction zone I. A first air inlet pipe 6 is also provided on the sidewall of the first reaction zone I. This first air inlet pipe 6 is located above the return water inlet 2 and an air distributor 5 is installed at one end of the inlet pipe 6 within the first reaction zone I, evenly distributing the mixed gas within the first reaction zone I. It should be noted that in this embodiment, a first sampling pipe 7 is also provided on the sidewall of the first reaction zone I to facilitate sampling and analysis. The first sampling pipe 7 and the first air inlet pipe 6 are located at equal heights, each located between one-third and one-half the height of the first reaction chamber 8.

[0040] Anaerobic granular sludge is inoculated inside the first reaction zone I to serve as the first reaction chamber 8. The hydrolytic acidifying bacteria in the anaerobic granular sludge can hydrolyze the refractory organic matter in the wastewater to be treated into easily degradable small molecular organic matter, which then produces volatile fatty acids through fermentation and acidification under the action of intracellular enzymes.

[0041] In the device provided by the present invention, an ecological partition A 9 for separating anaerobic granular sludge is provided between the first reaction zone I and the second reaction zone II. Figure 3 The cross-sectional view of the first reaction zone I and the second reaction zone II provided in this embodiment. The structure of the A ecological partition 9 is as follows Figure 4 As shown. Ecological baffle A 9 is provided with several upwardly projecting cylinders, the bottoms of which are connected to ecological baffle A 9. Within these cylinders is a filler area 10, and the sidewalls of these cylinders are provided with several water-permeable A baffle water outlets 11. In this embodiment, pebbles can be used as filler in filler area 10. Therefore, the treated wastewater in the first reaction zone I can flow upward through ecological baffle A 9 into the second reaction zone II for subsequent reaction, while the anaerobic granular sludge in the first reaction zone I is retained by ecological baffle A 9.

[0042] A second air inlet pipe 12 is provided on the side wall of the second reaction zone II, and is positioned higher than the A ecological partition 9. A second sampling pipe 14 is also provided on the side wall of the second reaction zone II to facilitate sampling and analysis. The second sampling pipe 14 and the second air inlet pipe 12 are positioned at the same height, at 1 / 3 to 1 / 2 of the height of the second reaction chamber 13.

[0043] Anaerobic activated sludge with denitrification and sulfate-reduction capabilities is inoculated inside the second reaction zone II, serving as the second reaction chamber 13. Unlike the first reaction chamber 8, the bacterial flora in the second reaction chamber 13 is specialized due to the partitioning of the A ecological partition 9. Denitrifying and sulfate-reducing bacteria are abundant, relying on the small molecular organic matter produced in the first reaction zone I as a carbon source. Nitrates and sulfates in the wastewater are converted into ammonium salts and H2S, respectively.

[0044] In the device provided by the present invention, a B ecological partition 15 is provided between the second reaction zone II and the third reaction zone III to separate the anaerobic granular sludge. Several upwardly protruding cylinders are provided on the B ecological partition 15, the bottoms of which are connected to the B ecological partition 15. Within the cylinders is a B filling area 16, and the side walls of the cylinders are provided with several B partition water distribution ports 17 for water permeability. In this embodiment, pebbles can be used as filler in the B filling area 16. Therefore, the treated sewage in the second reaction zone II can flow upward through the B ecological partition 15 into the third reaction zone III for subsequent reaction, while the anaerobic granular sludge is intercepted by the B ecological partition 15.

[0045] Here, the functions of the A ecological partition 9 and the B ecological partition 15 are mainly divided into two aspects: on the one hand, the A ecological partition 9 and the B ecological partition 15 can form ecological zones, provide specific habitats for the bacterial communities in each reaction zone, and maintain the enrichment and cultivation of functional bacteria in each reaction zone and functional specialization; on the other hand, the A ecological partition 9 and the B ecological partition 15 are provided with the A partition water outlet 11 and the B partition water outlet 17, which are permeable to water and air but not to mud. While maintaining the return air disturbance to improve the mass transfer efficiency, the sludge circulation can be limited to a specific area, reducing most of the interference except for the new and decomposed sludge.

[0046] It should be noted that the material of the A ecological partition 9 and the B ecological partition 15 can be a hydrophilic material, the size of the A partition water outlet 11 and the B partition water outlet 17 can be set according to the sludge characteristics, and the filler can be set according to the characteristics of the wastewater and sludge to be treated. In this embodiment, the aperture of the A partition water outlet 11 and the B partition water outlet 17 is set to 2mm, which has a good effect of intercepting anaerobic granular sludge. If those skilled in the art use other granular sludge, they can determine the aperture size according to the particle size. In this embodiment, the setting height of the A ecological partition 9 is 1 / 3 of the height of the anaerobic bioreactor, and the setting height of the B ecological partition 15 is 2 / 3 of the height of the anaerobic bioreactor.

[0047] A third air inlet pipe 18 is provided on the sidewall of the third reaction zone III, at a height higher than the B ecological partition 15. A third sampling pipe 19 is also provided on the sidewall of the third reaction zone III to facilitate sampling and analysis. The third sampling pipe 19 and the third air inlet pipe 18 are positioned at the same height, at 1 / 3 to 1 / 2 of the height of the third reaction chamber 20.

[0048] The third reaction zone III is inoculated with anaerobic activated sludge capable of producing methanogens, serving as the third reaction chamber 20. Unlike the first and second reaction chambers 8 and 13, the third reaction chamber 20 is rich in methanogens. After the degradation of recalcitrant organic matter in the first reaction zone I and carbon source utilization in the second reaction zone II, the remaining residue, mostly small volatile fatty acids, is converted into acetic acid and H2 by hydrogen-producing and acetogenic bacteria, which are then used by the methanogens to generate CH4.

[0049] The third reaction zone III is located at the top of the anaerobic bioreactor and has two main functions: on the one hand, methanogens are greatly affected by pH and are not easily able to withstand the impact of complex toxic organic wastewater, and functional bacteria find it difficult to directly utilize difficult-to-degrade organic matter; on the other hand, due to the setting of the B ecological partition 15, the anaerobic granular sludge is confined to the circulation within the partition, which is conducive to the formation of a specific habitat for methanogens and the increase of bacterial abundance.

[0050] Figure 2 A cross-sectional view of the three-phase separation zone IV provided in this embodiment. A gas collection channel 22 is provided within the three-phase separation zone IV. An inclined guide plate 21 is provided at the bottom of the gas collection channel 22. The inclination angle α of the guide plate 21 can be set to 50-60°. The connection between the bottom of the gas collection channel 22 and the guide plate 21 forms a solid-phase precipitation zone 23. The solid-phase precipitation zone 23 has a downwardly tapering structure. Sludge in the solid-phase precipitation zone 23 settles downward through the guide plate 21 and is recovered into the third reaction chamber 20.

[0051] An exhaust pipe 29, connected to the outside world, is located at the top of the gas collection channel 22. The exhaust pipe 29 is also equipped with a return pipe 28 and a pressure control valve 30. The return pipe 28, together with the first, second, and third inlet pipes 6, 12, and 18, forms a circulating air intake circuit. The pressure control valve 30 regulates the amount of mixed gas that flows back through the first, second, and third inlet pipes 6, 12, and 18 into the first, second, and third reaction chambers 8, 13, and 20, respectively, as well as the amount of mixed gas that exits the anaerobic bioreactor through the exhaust pipe 29.

[0052] A reflux outlet pipe 24 is installed on the sidewall of three-phase separation zone IV. This pipe is located higher than the guide plate 21 and is connected to the reflux inlet 2 in the first reaction zone I, forming an external loop. Reflux water enters the first reaction chamber 8, alleviating the impact of the incoming water load. The solid phase precipitation zone 23 in three-phase separation zone IV is connected to an outlet weir 26 via a fender 25. An outlet 27 is located on the sidewall of the weir 26. The inclination angle β at the bottom of the weir 26 can be set to 50-60°.

[0053] In this embodiment, the centers of the water distributor 3 , the gas distributor 5 , the first reaction chamber 8 , the second reaction chamber 13 , the third reaction chamber 20 , the gas collecting channel 22 and the exhaust pipe 29 are located on the same vertical axis.

[0054] The specific method for treating sewage using the self-aerated baffle-type high-efficiency anaerobic bioreactor provided in this embodiment is as follows:

[0055] S1: Anaerobic granular sludge is inoculated in the first reaction zone I of the anaerobic bioreactor, anaerobic activated sludge with denitrification and sulfate reduction functions is inoculated in the second reaction zone II, and anaerobic activated sludge with methanogenesis function is inoculated in the third reaction zone III, which is beneficial to sewage treatment.

[0056] S2: The wastewater to be treated enters the first reaction chamber 8 through the water inlet pipe 4 and the water distributor 3. The mixed gas from the gas collecting channel 22 is regulated by the pressure control valve 30 and passes through the exhaust pipe 29, the return gas pipe 28, the first air inlet pipe 6, and the air distributor 5, and is evenly distributed into the first reaction chamber 8, thereby disturbing the sludge and improving the mass transfer efficiency. In the first reaction chamber 8, the organic matter in the wastewater to be treated is decomposed into easily degradable small molecular organic matter under the hydrolysis action of the anaerobic granular sludge.

[0057] S3: After treatment in first reaction chamber 8, wastewater enters second reaction chamber 13 through ecological baffle A 9, while anaerobic granular sludge is retained in first reaction chamber 8. In second reaction chamber 13, anaerobic activated sludge, capable of denitrification and sulfate reduction, uses the aforementioned small organic matter as a carbon source to reduce nitrates and sulfates in the wastewater into nitrogen and sulfur-containing gases. Return gas enters through second air inlet pipe 12, agitating the sludge and improving mass transfer efficiency.

[0058] S4: After treatment in the second reaction chamber 13, the wastewater, nitrogen, and sulfur-containing gases enter the third reaction chamber 20 through ecological baffle B 15, while the anaerobic granular sludge is trapped in the second reaction chamber 13 by ecological baffle B 15. In the third reaction chamber 20, the refractory organic matter is decomposed in the first reaction zone I and utilized as a carbon source in the second reaction zone II. The remaining fraction is mostly small volatile fatty acids. These small volatile fatty acids in the wastewater are converted into acetic acid and H2 by hydrogen-producing and acetogenic bacteria, which are then used by methanogens to produce CH4. Return gas enters through the third inlet pipe 18 to agitate the sludge and improve mass transfer efficiency.

[0059] S5: After treatment in the first, second, and third reaction chambers 8, 13, and 20, a mixed gas containing nitrogen, sulfur-containing gases, and methane is generated, which is collected by the guide plate 21 and the gas collection channel 22. The mixed gas is regulated by the pressure control valve 30, and a portion of it passes through the return gas pipe 28 and is returned to the first, second, and third reaction chambers 8, 13, and 20, respectively, through the first, second, and third inlet pipes 6, 12, and 18. The return gas ratio can be adjusted according to the reaction efficiency of each zone to save energy and increase efficiency. The remaining portion is discharged from the anaerobic bioreactor through the exhaust pipe 29. A portion of the treated wastewater is circulated to the return water inlet 2 through the return water outlet pipe 24, and the remaining portion is discharged from the anaerobic bioreactor through the outlet weir 26 and the outlet 27.

[0060] After the above treatment, the organic loading rate (OLR) of the anaerobic bioreactor with baffles is greater than 100 kg / m 3 ·d, much higher than the 45kg / m3 of conventional reactors 3 ·d, anaerobic granular sludge forms an ecological distribution in the reactor.

[0061] The anaerobic bioreactor provided by the present invention integrates the carbon, nitrogen and sulfur removal processes of difficult-to-degrade organic wastewater, and couples the three processes of denitrification, sulfur reduction and methanogenesis. In this process, the difficult-to-degrade organic matter is decomposed and used as a carbon source, and provides electron donors for the denitrification and sulfate reduction in the second reaction zone. Denitrifying bacteria reduce nitrates in sewage to produce N2 and ammonium salts through denitrification, and sulfate-reducing bacteria use organic matter as a carbon source to reduce sulfate to produce H2S gas. The mixed gas is collected through the gas collection channel and filtered, and then transported to the three reaction zones through the reflux gas pipe for aeration. The mud-water mixture is precipitated in the solid phase precipitation zone, so that the sludge returns to the third reaction chamber through the guide plate, and part of the sewage re-enters the first reaction chamber through the reflux outlet pipe for circulation, thereby achieving efficient removal of pollutants.

[0062] Ecological partitions are set up in the anaerobic biological reaction zone to form ecological zones. By controlling the balance of organic matter consumption, the three reaction zones can reasonably utilize the substrate for step-by-step degradation, saving energy and reducing consumption to improve sewage treatment efficiency. At the same time, it is conducive to the formation of exclusive habitats for microorganisms and the improvement of the detoxification efficiency of specific pollutants in difficult-to-degrade wastewater. It is suitable for coal chemical wastewater treatment.

[0063] The embodiment described above is merely a preferred embodiment of the present invention and is not intended to limit the present invention. Persons skilled in the art may make various changes and modifications without departing from the spirit and scope of the present invention. Therefore, any technical solution obtained by equivalent substitution or equivalent transformation falls within the scope of protection of the present invention.
