[0026] Example 1

[0027] A method for synchronous nitrogen removal and carbon reduction by coupling biogas slurry biological fermentation with biological flocculation

[0028] Biogas slurry biological fermentation: after solid-liquid separation, a composite fermentation agent (accounting for 6% of the weight of the biogas slurry) was added to the biogas slurry for intermittent aerobic aeration fermentation for 10 days; the composite fermentation agent included bacillus group, yeast group, lactic acid bacteria group and Bacillus thuringiensis, among which the bacillus group accounted for 18%, the yeast group accounted for 38%, the lactic acid bacteria accounted for 29%, and the Bacillus thuringiensis accounted for 15%; the effective viable bacteria count of microorganisms in the biogas slurry was 8×10 8 cfu / L; the fermentation temperature was 20±5℃, and the redox potential of the fermentation process was controlled to be -100mV-100mV through intermittent aeration.

[0029] Biogas slurry graded flocculation: The biogas slurry after biological fermentation is introduced into the flocculation sedimentation tank, and a 10% PAC solution is slowly added, accounting for 0.8wt% of the biogas slurry, and slowly stirred for 5-10min for primary flocculation; 24h later, a 0.1% bioflocculant solution is gradually added, accounting for 0.012wt% of the biogas slurry, and slowly stirred for 5-10min for secondary flocculation. After biological fermentation and secondary flocculation, the COD and ammonia nitrogen removal rates in the biogas slurry are 72.6% and 89.6% respectively, and the turbidity is reduced from 700NTU to 80NTU.

[0030] Example 2

[0031] The intermittent aeration biological fermentation method of the biogas slurry in this embodiment is the same as that in Example 1, with the only difference that: the addition amount of the PAC solution with a mass fraction of 10% in the primary flocculation process of the biogas slurry after biological fermentation accounts for 1.2wt% of the biogas slurry, and the addition amount of the secondary flocculation biological flocculant solution is consistent with that in Example 1. After biological fermentation and secondary flocculation, the COD and ammonia nitrogen removal rates in the biogas slurry are 78.6% and 72.7% respectively, and the turbidity decreases from 700NTU to 5.9NTU.

[0032] Example 3

[0033] The intermittent aeration biological fermentation method of the biogas slurry in this embodiment is the same as that in Example 1. The addition amount of the PAC solution with a mass fraction of 10% in the primary flocculation process of the biogas slurry after biological fermentation is the same as that in Example 2. The only difference is that the addition amount of the biological flocculant solution with a mass fraction of 0.1% in the secondary flocculation process accounts for 0.010wt% of the biogas slurry. After biological fermentation and secondary flocculation, the COD and ammonia nitrogen removal rates in the biogas slurry are 74.1% and 65.6% respectively, and the turbidity decreases from 700NTU to 64.5NTU.

[0034] Example 4

[0035] The intermittent aeration biological fermentation method of the biogas slurry in this embodiment is the same as that in Example 1, the only difference is that: the addition amount of 10% PAC in the primary flocculation process of the biogas slurry after biological fermentation accounts for 1.6wt% of the biogas slurry, and the addition amount of 0.1% bioflocculant solution in the secondary flocculation process accounts for 0.008wt% of the biogas slurry. After biological fermentation and secondary flocculation, the COD and ammonia nitrogen removal rates in the biogas slurry are 77.3% and 79.9% respectively, and the turbidity decreases from 700NTU to 2.4NTU.

[0036] Example 5

[0037] The intermittent aeration biological fermentation method of the biogas slurry in this embodiment is the same as that in Example 1, the only difference is that: the addition amount of the PAC solution with a mass fraction of 10% in the first flocculation process of the biogas slurry after biological fermentation is 1.6wt% of the biogas slurry, and the addition amount of the bioflocculant solution with a mass fraction of 0.1% in the secondary flocculation process is 0.012wt% of the biogas slurry. After biological fermentation and secondary flocculation, the COD and ammonia nitrogen removal rates in the biogas slurry are 78.9% and 80.5% respectively, and the turbidity is reduced from 700NTU to 2.2NTU.

[0038] Comparative Example 1

[0039] In this comparative example, the biogas slurry was not subjected to biological fermentation but directly subjected to flocculation treatment, and the flocculation method was the same as that in Example 1. The results showed that the turbidity decreased slowly during the direct flocculation process without biological fermentation, only from 700NTU to 400NTU, and the COD and ammonia nitrogen removal rates were 35.8% and 27.1%, respectively.

[0040] Comparative Example 2

[0041] The difference between this comparative example and Example 1 is that the order of biological flocculation and PAC flocculation is adjusted during the flocculation process, that is, after the biological fermentation of the biogas slurry, biological flocculation is first carried out and then PAC is added for secondary flocculation. The results show that the turbidity is reduced from 700NTU to 210NTU, and the COD and ammonia nitrogen removal rates are 56.4% and 67.1% respectively; the denitrification and carbon reduction effects are significantly lower than those in Example 1, indicating that the order of primary and secondary flocculation directly affects the effect of the technology.

[0042] Comparative Example 3

[0043] The difference between this comparative example and Example 1 is that only PAC flocculation is used in the flocculation process, and no biological flocculation treatment is performed, and the amount of PAC added is consistent with that in Example 1. The results show that the turbidity of the biogas slurry is reduced from 700NTU to 150NTU, the COD removal rate is 70.4%, and the ammonia nitrogen removal rate is only about 10%, indicating that it is difficult to achieve the effect of denitrification and carbon reduction by using PAC flocculation alone.

[0044] Comparative Example 4

[0045] In order to compare the effects of biological flocculation and conventional chemical flocculation, the difference between this comparative example and Example 1 is that the biological flocculant solution in the secondary flocculation is replaced by polyacrylamide (PAM) solution, and the addition amount of PAM solution with a mass fraction of 0.1% accounts for 0.016wt% of the biogas slurry. The results show that the turbidity of the biogas slurry decreases from 700NTU to 49.2NTU, and the COD and ammonia nitrogen removal rates are 77.8% and 83.5% respectively; the denitrification and carbon reduction effects are not significantly different from those of Example 1, but the treatment cost is about 1 times higher than that of Example 1, and the sediment after flocculation with PAM is not suitable for reuse considering the difficulty of subsequent degradation, the comprehensive operating cost of the project and the secondary treatment of the sediment.

[0046] The present invention has found, based on a large number of experiments, that the biogas slurry after solid-liquid separation is first subjected to biological fermentation during storage, and then subjected to biological flocculation, so that the turbidity, COD, ammonia nitrogen, etc. of the biogas slurry can be rapidly reduced. In view of the fact that the process adopts the biological flocculation process, the flocculated sludge is pollution-free and can be reused with the biogas sludge, thus avoiding the problem that the flocculated sludge cannot be recycled due to the addition of traditional chemical flocculants. This technology can solve the current situation of large-scale biogas projects with large amounts of biogas slurry and difficult centralized treatment, and provides a new strategy for the disposal and treatment of biogas slurry in large-scale biogas projects and for maintaining the sustainable operation of biogas projects.

[0047] Finally, it should be noted that the above embodiments are only used to illustrate the technical solutions of the present invention, rather than to limit it. Although the present invention has been described in detail with reference to the aforementioned embodiments, those skilled in the art should understand that they can still modify the technical solutions described in the aforementioned embodiments, or replace some or all of the technical features therein with equivalents. However, these modifications or replacements do not cause the essence of the corresponding technical solutions to deviate from the scope of the technical solutions of the embodiments of the present invention.
