Description

1. Technical Field

[0001] The invention provides a method for preparing artificial peat and fulvic acid by using livestock and poultry excrement in aquaculture using a high-pressure hydrothermal method, and relates to the field of chemical industry. 2. Background technology

[0002] With the rapid development of my country's animal husbandry, the scale and density of livestock and poultry farming have greatly increased, and the resulting livestock and poultry manure pollution has continued to intensify. Livestock manure contains antibiotics, parasite eggs, pathogenic bacteria, viruses and weed seeds. It also contains a large amount of nitrogen, phosphorus, potassium, and heavy metal elements (copper, zinc, arsenic, etc.) and salt. If it is not treated in time, on the one hand, it will cause serious crop diseases, insect pests and weeds after use in farmland, causing a lot of pollution to land and water resources. On the other hand, it will bring food safety problems and air pollution caused by odor, which has not only become an important factor restricting the sustainable development of animal husbandry and agriculture, but also poses a great challenge to rural environmental governance.

[0003] Returning livestock and poultry manure to the fields is the fundamental way out and a fundamental solution to the problem of livestock and poultry breeding pollution. The existing high-temperature composting or fermentation of livestock and poultry manure to produce organic fertilizer is difficult to kill antibiotics, parasite eggs, pathogenic bacteria, viruses and weed seeds because the temperature does not exceed 80°C, making it difficult to achieve safe, clean and efficient green return to the fields. Livestock and poultry manure contains rich organic matter and nutrients. As a cultivation matrix, it can provide plants with the necessary nutrients, promote plant growth and development, and increase yield and quality. There are a large number of beneficial microorganisms in livestock and poultry manure. By using it as a cultivation matrix, it can provide nutrition and suitable environmental conditions for the cultivation of microorganisms, and be used for the research and development and production of biological preparations or biofertilizers. Therefore, it is urgent to develop production processes and equipment technologies that can transform it into matrix materials suitable for plant or microbial growth, so as to achieve the effective utilization of organic matter and nutrients in livestock and poultry manure. 3. Summary of the invention

[0004] The purpose of the present invention is to overcome the shortcomings of the existing livestock and poultry manure production organic fertilizer and cultivation substrate technology and to invent a method for preparing artificial peat and fulvic acid from livestock and poultry manure in the aquaculture industry by a high-pressure hydrothermal method. The method utilizes high-temperature and high-pressure hydrothermal decomposition and killing of antibiotics, parasite eggs, pathogenic bacteria, viruses and weed seeds in the aquaculture manure, utilizes the property of supercritical water that salt is difficult to dissolve to remove heavy metal elements and salt in the hydrolyzed fulvic acid, eradicates the two major problems of antibiotics and pests and diseases, heavy metals and salt damage that are difficult to solve in the existing livestock and poultry manure production organic fertilizer process, and ensures the safe, clean and efficient disposal and green return of livestock and poultry manure to the field.
