Description

TECHNICAL FIELD

[0001] The application belongs to the technical field of sewage treatment, and particularly relates to a polydopamine modified biochar loaded Fe-Cu sodium alginate microsphere and a preparation method thereof. BACKGROUND

[0002] When an anaerobic ammonia oxidation process is used to treat nitrogen-containing wastewater, a large amount of N2 produced by anaerobic ammonia oxidation bacteria cannot be released, and gas pockets are formed in the interior of granular sludge or attached to the surface of the granular sludge, resulting in a decrease in the density of the granular sludge, floating, and then loss with the effluent, which not only increases the mass concentration of suspended solids in the effluent, affects the treatment effect, and even causes the collapse of the system. In addition, the anaerobic ammonia oxidation process produces about 11% of nitrate byproducts, which affects the discharge standard of the process. These seriously restrict the large-scale promotion and application of the anaerobic ammonia oxidation process.

[0003] There are many studies on the characteristics of anaerobic ammonia oxidation granular sludge and the removal of nitrate byproducts in the prior art, for example, the existing patent CN201510640931.2 discloses a culture method of anaerobic ammonia oxidation granular sludge with a hydroxyapatite core, and by adding calcium ions and high-concentration phosphate ions in the influent, granular sludge with a hydroxyapatite core, good settling performance, high mechanical strength, large particle size, and dense bacteria load can be cultured, and high-efficiency retention of anaerobic ammonia oxidation bacteria under high flow rate can be realized. However, calcium chloride and high-concentration phosphate are needed to be added during the culture process, and high phosphate concentration is easy to cause inhibition of anaerobic ammonia oxidation bacteria, and the process does not involve deep removal of nitrate byproducts.

[0004] Although the existing public documents disclose the treatment method of adding zero-valent iron powder to realize the removal of nitrate byproducts in the anaerobic ammonia oxidation process, there are still some shortcomings and challenges: (1) Too much iron ion release may have a toxic effect on the microbial community, inhibit the activity of some microorganisms, and affect the biodegradation efficiency of the system. Especially, some sensitive bacteria (such as nitrifying bacteria and denitrifying bacteria) have low tolerance to high-concentration iron ions, which may lead to failure of important biological processes in the system. (2) The chemical properties of Fe powder in wastewater may not be stable and may easily undergo oxidation to form iron hydroxide or other insoluble substances, affecting the long-term stability and effect of the particles in the granules. The dissolution and migration process of iron may cause the destruction of the granule structure, leading to the disintegration or loosening of the sludge granules. (3) Although the introduction of iron powder can improve the settling performance to some extent, it may induce sludge bulking under certain conditions, especially when the iron ion concentration is high, which may cause the sludge flocs to become loose and the granule structure to be unstable. Too much iron salt may cause the sludge to settle faster, but at the same time, it reduces the flexibility of the granules, making them fragile. In summary, although Fe powder can bring certain performance improvement in the activated granular sludge process, its introduction needs to be reasonably designed and controlled to avoid adverse effects on the biodegradation function, settling performance, and subsequent sludge disposal of the system. SUMMARY

[0005] To solve at least one of the above problems, the present application provides a kind of polydopamine modified biochar loaded Fe-Cu sodium alginate microspheres and its preparation method.

[0006] To achieve the above purpose, the following technical means are adopted:

[0007] The first aspect of the present application provides a preparation method of polydopamine modified biochar loaded Fe-Cu sodium alginate microspheres, comprising the following steps:

[0008] (1) Preparation of biochar: biomass material is used, carbonized under nitrogen or inert gas environment at a temperature of 450-600 DEG C, naturally cooled, crushed, and screened by screen mesh to obtain biochar powder with a particle size of 0.5-1 mm, dried and ready for use;

[0009] (2) Polydopamine coating: disperse the biochar powder in Tris buffer solution, uniformly disperse by ultrasonic, and obtain biochar particle suspension; add dopamine in deionized water according to the ratio of 100 mL:1-2 g, stir until completely dissolved; adjust the pH to 8.5-9.0 with sodium hydroxide to obtain dopamine solution; gradually add the dopamine solution to the biochar, monitor with pH meter to ensure the suitability of the reaction environment; stir at room temperature for 12-24 hours, expose to air for oxidation; when the color gradually changes from light yellow to dark brown, it indicates that the polymerization is complete, and the polydopamine coating is gradually deposited on the surface of the biochar particles;

[0010] (3) Fe-Cu ion loading: the polydopamine modified biochar is soaked in a mixed solution of FeCl3 and CuCl2 with a ratio of 1-2 g: 20 mL, and stirred for 4-6 hours; after washing with deionized water and drying, the polydopamine modified biochar loaded with Fe-Cu is obtained;

[0011] (4) Preparation of sodium alginate microspheres: sodium alginate is dissolved in deionized water at a ratio of 1-2 g: 50 mL, and the polydopamine modified biochar loaded with Fe-Cu is mixed with the sodium alginate solution at a ratio of 1-2 g: 100 mL; the mixed solution is dropped into a hardening liquid at a speed of 1.5-2.5 mL / min to form microspheres; the microspheres are placed in the hardening liquid for 30 min, and then taken out after hardening, and washed with water to obtain polydopamine modified biochar loaded with Fe-Cu sodium alginate microspheres.

[0012] In some embodiments of the present application, in step (1), the biomass material is waste sludge or agricultural and forestry waste biomass.

[0013] In some embodiments of the present application, in step (3), the mixed solution of FeCl3 and CuCl2 is prepared by mixing a 0.1-0.2 M FeCl3 solution with a 0.1-0.2 M FeCl3 solution.

[0014] In some embodiments of the present application, in step (4), the hardening liquid is a calcium chloride solution with a concentration of 25-30 g / L.

[0015] In some embodiments of the present application, in step (4), the distance between the mixed solution and the hardening liquid is kept at 3-5 cm when the mixed solution is dropped into the hardening liquid to form microspheres.

[0016] In some embodiments of the present application, in steps (1) and (3), the drying condition is 50-80°C, and the drying time is 10-15 hours.

[0017] The second aspect of the present application provides polydopamine modified biochar loaded with Fe-Cu sodium alginate microspheres prepared by the method according to the first aspect.

[0018] The third aspect of the present application provides the use of polydopamine modified biochar loaded with Fe-Cu sodium alginate microspheres prepared by the method according to the second aspect in preparing anaerobic ammonia oxidation granular sludge. The sodium alginate microspheres prepared by using polydopamine modified activated carbon loaded with iron-copper (Fe-Cu) powder as the core of active granular sludge (AGS) can significantly improve the structural stability, adsorption performance and biocompatibility of the sludge, and provide a slow-release iron ion effect to avoid microbial toxicity.

[0019] The obtained anaerobic ammonia oxidation granular sludge is applied in sewage treatment, and ammonia nitrogen, nitrate nitrogen, COD, phosphorus and heavy metal ions can be effectively removed.

[0020] Advantages of the present application

[0021] Compared with the prior art, the present application has the following advantages: the present application uses polydopamine (PDA) modified activated carbon to load iron-copper (Fe-Cu) powder to make sodium alginate (SA) microspheres, the microspheres formed by sodium alginate can firmly wrap the activated carbon and iron powder, the support structure is stable, and the loss of the core material is reduced. The polydopamine coating enhances the adhesion between materials, so that the internal components of the microspheres are not easy to fall off.

[0022] The use of polydopamine modification and the wrapping of sodium alginate allows the slow release of iron ions from the iron-copper particles, avoiding the inhibition of microbial activity due to excessive iron concentration; and the sustained release of iron ions helps to maintain good phosphorus removal performance, improving the operational stability of the system and preventing the secondary release of phosphorus in application.

[0023] The biocompatibility of polydopamine promotes the rapid attachment and growth of microbial communities on the surface of the microspheres, accelerating the maturation of granular sludge in application; the porous structure on the surface of the microspheres provides more attachment sites for microorganisms, promoting the formation of biofilms and improving the organic matter degradation efficiency of the system.

[0024] The porous structure of activated carbon in the sodium alginate microspheres enhances the adsorption capacity of organic matter, ammonia nitrogen and heavy metals, improving the effect of sewage treatment. The iron-copper particles wrapped by polydopamine promote the catalytic oxidation-reduction reaction, improving the COD degradation and phosphorus precipitation effect.

[0025] Sodium alginate and polydopamine are both biodegradable materials, and will not remain in the environment for a long time in use, and have high recycling and regeneration potential, meeting the requirements of sustainable development.

[0026] When it is used as the core to prepare sludge particles, the sodium alginate microspheres provide a larger density and good morphological support for the sludge particles, avoid the problem of sludge swelling, and improve the settling performance; this helps to form compact and stable sludge particles, improve the settling speed of sludge and the separation efficiency. The core structure of the polydopamine-activated carbon-iron-copper microspheres enables the granular sludge to have stronger resistance, which can cope with sudden organic load or pollutant concentration fluctuations in wastewater treatment; this enhanced particle stability helps to extend the operation cycle of the sludge system and reduce the frequency of shutdown maintenance. The catalytic effect of the iron-copper particles can effectively promote the electron transfer in the denitrification process, improve the denitrification efficiency. The synergistic effect of polydopamine and activated carbon enhances the removal of phosphorus, ensures the simultaneous removal of nitrogen and phosphorus, and improves the effluent water quality. It does not cause secondary pollution during sludge aging or disposal, which is conducive to environmental protection; the core material is easy to recover and regenerate, and the structure of the microspheres is convenient for recovery after wastewater treatment through sedimentation or screening, reducing the loss of core materials. The recovered microspheres can restore the adsorption capacity through simple regeneration treatment (such as acid washing, alkali washing, high-temperature sintering, etc.), further reducing the operation cost.

[0052] (2) Under an anaerobic environment, inoculate the activated ANAMMOX strain Bacillus DMF-4 (CGTCC No. M2022413) into the culture medium at a volume fraction of 5%, and the culture medium comprises NH4Cl: 1000 mg / L, NaNO3: 500 mg / L, KH2PO4: 50 mg / L, KCl: 50 mg / L, NaHCO3: 100 mg / L, and a trace element solution. Add 10% (mass volume fraction) of the polydopamine-modified biochar loaded with Fe-Cu sodium alginate microspheres prepared in Example 1; Bacillus sp.

[0053] (3) Use an anaerobic continuous stirring reactor to cultivate and monitor the sodium alginate microspheres, sludge, and water obtained after step (2), and maintain the reactor at a constant temperature of 30°C during the cultivation process. Use a nitrogen gas sealing system to avoid air entering, so that the reactor is in an anoxic state. Regularly check the airtightness of the reactor, and supplement nitrogen gas as necessary to maintain the anaerobic environment. Detect the NH4 + and NO3 - concentrations in the culture medium every week to ensure that they are within the ranges of 100-1000 mg / L and 50-300 mg / L, respectively. Ensure that the reactor temperature is stable and avoid fluctuations.

[0054] After 3 weeks of continuous cultivation, collect the ANAMMOX granular sludge with the sodium alginate microsphere core using gravity sedimentation or centrifugation.
