Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] The invention relates to a method for preparing an adjustable organic fertilizer. Background Art
[0002] As the circular economy becomes mainstream, how to convert waste into resources and reduce carbon emissions has gradually attracted the attention of the industry and the government. Organic waste includes livestock manure, waste diatomaceous earth, food processing sludge, brewing sludge, agricultural sludge, animal residues and plant residues. Common organic waste includes livestock waste, agricultural waste and food waste. Under the environmental protection demand for a sustainable environment, how to effectively treat and utilize organic waste has become an important issue in the current industry.
[0003] Take livestock manure as an example. Depending on the type of poultry and livestock raised, the nitrogen, phosphorus anhydride and potassium oxide contained in the feed will be excreted from the body with the manure. Therefore, livestock manure contains nitrogen, phosphorus, potassium, other nutrients and organic matter required for the growth of general crops, and can be used as raw materials for organic fertilizers. Specifically, nitrogen fertilizer is the main component for making chlorophyll and can be used as leaf fertilizer. Seedlings and foliage plants have a high demand for nitrogen fertilizer; phosphorus fertilizer can promote flower bud differentiation and flowering, and can be used as flower fertilizer or fruit fertilizer. Flower and fruit plants have a high demand for phosphorus fertilizer; potassium fertilizer can strengthen rhizomes and can be used as stem fertilizer or fruit fertilizer. Flower seedlings or mature plants have a high demand for potassium fertilizer.
[0004] Organic waste has the potential to be used as raw materials for organic fertilizer. If it can be effectively recycled, it can not only reduce the impact on the environment, but also increase soil productivity. However, general organic waste only forms a single low-concentration biogas residue fertilizer after anaerobic fermentation, which cannot be adjusted to meet the fertilizer needs of different crops. It needs to be adjusted through aerobic composting and adding animal and plant residues before it can be applied to the soil.
[0005] As mentioned above, the existing methods for preparing organic fertilizers from organic wastes have not yet fully met the needs in all aspects. Developing methods for preparing organic fertilizers that can further improve the recycling rate and applicability of organic wastes is still a topic of concern in related fields. Summary of the invention
[0006] According to some embodiments of the present invention, a method for preparing an adjustable organic fertilizer is provided, comprising the following steps: providing the ratio of nitrogen, phosphorus and potassium required by the target crop, collecting a plurality of wastes; grouping the fertilizer concentrations of the same type of source materials in the plurality of wastes respectively, and adjusting the composition of the grouped plurality of wastes according to the ratio of nitrogen, phosphorus and potassium required by the target crop to form a composite source material; and performing an anaerobic fermentation process on the composite source material. The anaerobic fermentation process comprises: introducing the composite source material into an acidification tank to obtain a first mixture; and introducing the first mixture into a methanogenic tank to obtain a second mixture. The acidification tank contains acidifying bacteria, and the pH value of the acidification tank is between 3 and 7.5, and the temperature is between 30°C and 60°C. The methanogenic tank contains methanogenic bacteria, and the pH value of the methanogenic tank is between 6 and 8, and the temperature is between 30°C and 60°C. Furthermore, the method further comprises separating the second mixture to obtain biogas slurry and biogas residue, and the biogas residue is organic fertilizer.

[0030] M1: Preparation method of adjustable organic fertilizer
[0031] S10, S12, S14, S14-1, S14-2, S16: Steps DETAILED DESCRIPTION
[0032] The preparation method of the adjustable organic fertilizer of the embodiment of the present invention is described in detail below.It should be understood that the following narration provides many different embodiments or examples, in order to implement the different states of some embodiments of the present invention.The specific assembly and arrangement described below are only simple and clear descriptions of some embodiments of the present invention.Certainly, these are only used for example and not limitation of the present invention.
[0033] Unless otherwise defined, all terms (including technical and scientific terms) used herein have the same meanings as commonly understood by those skilled in the art to which the present invention belongs. It is understood that these terms, such as those defined in commonly used dictionaries, should be interpreted as having a meaning consistent with the background or context of the relevant technology and the present invention, and should not be interpreted in an idealized or overly formal manner unless specifically defined in the embodiments of the present invention.
[0034] In view of the demand for organic waste reduction faced by the current industry and the market demand for related technical products and services, the embodiment of the present invention provides a method for preparing adjustable organic fertilizer using organic waste, which can adjust the feed composition of organic waste to form a composite material source with suitable fertilizer according to the growth requirements of target crops (for example, the required ratio of nitrogen, phosphorus and potassium), thereby optimizing anaerobic fermentation reaction, reducing the metabolic pathway of high concentration of ammonia nitrogen to inhibit anaerobic organisms, and then accelerating the stabilization of organic matter and converting it into an organic fertilizer with a fertilizer composition suitable for target crops. In particular, the fertilizer composition of the organic fertilizer obtained is adjustable through the adjustment of the composite material source, that is, the fertilizer composition of the organic fertilizer can be optimized according to different target crops. Therefore, the organic fertilizer formed by the method provided by the embodiment of the present invention can be directly applied to the soil without the need for aerobic composting and adding procedures such as animal and plant meal to adjust the fertilizer.
[0035] Figure 1 1 shows a flow chart of steps of a method M1 for preparing an adjustable organic fertilizer according to some embodiments of the present invention. It should be understood that, according to some embodiments, additional steps may be added before, during and / or after the method M1 for preparing an adjustable organic fertilizer described below, or some steps may be replaced or omitted.
[0036] The method M1 for preparing adjustable organic fertilizer includes step S10: providing the ratio of nitrogen, phosphorus and potassium required by the target crop and collecting a variety of wastes. Specifically, organic wastes containing the nutrient elements (e.g., nitrogen, phosphorus and potassium) required by the target crop can be collected, and the appropriate type of organic waste can be selected according to the fertilizer requirements of the target crop.
[0037] The target crop may be any edible plant and / or ornamental plant. According to some embodiments, the target crop may include vegetables, fruit trees / fruits, grains, beans, root crops, plant materials, melons, grassland plants, lawns, spice plants, flowers, other suitable crops or a combination of the foregoing, but not limited thereto. According to some embodiments, vegetables may include, for example, lettuce, shallots, Chinese cabbage, Chinese cabbage, large tomatoes, spinach, broccoli, onions, green peppers, etc., but not limited thereto. According to some embodiments, fruit trees / fruits may include small fruit tomatoes, apples, citrus, pears, grapes, peaches, cherries, walnuts, almonds, bananas, strawberries, etc., but not limited thereto. According to some embodiments, cereals may include, for example, rice, barley, wheat, rye, oats, corn, sorghum, etc., but not limited thereto. According to some embodiments, beans may include, for example, soybeans, red beans, beans, broad beans, peas, peanuts, etc., but not limited thereto. According to some embodiments, root crops may include, for example, carrots, potatoes, sweet potatoes, radishes, lotus roots, kohlrabi, etc., but not limited thereto. According to some embodiments, plant raw materials may include cotton, hemp, rapeseed, beet, hops, sugar cane, beet, olive, rubber, coffee, tobacco, tea, etc., but are not limited thereto. According to some embodiments, melons may include pumpkin, cucumber, watermelon, cantaloupe, etc., but are not limited thereto. According to some embodiments, grassland plants may include orchard grass, sorghum, cattail grass, clover, alfalfa, etc., but are not limited thereto.

According to some embodiments, spice plants may include lavender, rosemary, thyme, parsley, pepper, ginger, etc., but are not limited thereto. According to some embodiments, flowers may include chrysanthemum, rose, orchid, etc., but are not limited thereto.
[0038] The waste may be waste containing organic matter. According to some embodiments, the waste may include livestock waste, agricultural waste, food waste, other waste containing organic matter, or a combination thereof, but is not limited thereto. According to some embodiments, livestock waste may include livestock manure and urine, such as pig manure, chicken manure, pig urine, chicken urine, or a combination thereof, but is not limited thereto. According to some embodiments, agricultural waste may include biological agricultural waste, agricultural material waste, or a combination thereof, but is not limited thereto. According to some embodiments, food waste may include raw kitchen waste, cooked kitchen waste, food waste from a food factory, or a combination thereof, but is not limited thereto.
[0039] Furthermore, the preparation method M1 of the adjustable organic fertilizer includes step S12: grouping the fertilizer concentrations of the same type of source materials in the multiple wastes, and adjusting the composition of the grouped multiple wastes according to the ratio of nitrogen, phosphorus and potassium required by the target crop to form a composite source material. According to some embodiments, the step of grouping the fertilizer concentrations of the same type of source materials in the multiple wastes may include analyzing the total nitrogen (N), total phosphorus anhydride (P2O5) and total potassium oxide (K2O) component concentrations of the same source materials (source materials of the same type, for example, the same source materials of raw kitchen waste, cooked kitchen waste, breeder manure, laying hen manure, broiler manure, black pig manure or white pig manure) in the multiple wastes, but is not limited thereto. In other words, according to some embodiments, the total nitrogen, total phosphorus anhydride and total potassium oxide in the wastes can be used as fertilizers. According to some embodiments, other nutrients of various wastes may also be analyzed, for example, copper (Cu), zinc (Zn), sulfur (S), iron (Fe), manganese (Mn), boron (B), molybdenum (Mo), cobalt (Co) or other elements required by target crops, but not limited thereto. Furthermore, according to some embodiments, inductively coupled plasma optical emission spectroscopy (ICP-OES) may be used to analyze the total nitrogen, total phosphorus anhydride, and total potassium oxide components of various wastes.
[0040] In addition, according to some embodiments, the step of adjusting the composition of the various wastes to form a composite source according to the ratio of nitrogen, phosphorus, and potassium required by the target crop may include adjusting the feed amount of the various wastes through mass balance calculation, so that the concentrations of nitrogen, phosphorus, and potassium in the composite source are higher than the required concentrations of the target crop. In detail, considering that in the subsequent anaerobic fermentation biological metabolism reaction, microorganisms will also use nitrogen, phosphorus, and potassium as nutrients required for cell growth, and that microorganisms fight against the loss of potassium ions caused by acidification and proton imbalance caused by high concentrations of ammonia nitrogen in the environment, the fertilizer concentration in the composite source is adjusted to be higher than the fertilizer concentration set for the target crop.
[0041] According to some embodiments, the nitrogen, phosphorus, and potassium concentrations of the composite feed source are 1 to 4 times, or 2 to 3 times, higher than the required concentrations of the target crop. Furthermore, according to some embodiments, the concentration ratio of nitrogen:phosphorus:potassium of the composite feed source is 1 to 6:1 to 6:1 to 6, but is not limited thereto. The concentrations of nitrogen:phosphorus:potassium of the composite feed source can be adjusted to correspond to different target crops.
[0042] For example, according to some embodiments, the target crop is shallots, and the fertilizer concentration ratio of nitrogen:phosphorus:potassium (vol%) required by shallots is about 2:1:1. The feed amounts of various wastes can be adjusted through mass balance calculation so that the nitrogen:phosphorus:potassium (vol%) in the composite material source is about 3-5:1-3:1-3, for example, 3:1:1, 3:1:2, 3:2:2, 4:2:2, 4:2:3, 4:3:3, 5:2:3 or 5:3:3, but not limited to this. According to other embodiments, the target crop is lettuce, and the fertilizer concentration ratio of nitrogen: phosphorus: potassium (vol%) required for lettuce is about 2:2:1. The feed amount of various wastes can be adjusted by mass balance calculation, so that the nitrogen: phosphorus: potassium (vol%) in the composite source is about 2-5:2-5:2-4, for example, 2:2:2, 2:3:3, 3:3:2, 3:3:3, 3:4:2, 4:3:2, 4:3:3, 4:4:3, 4:5:3, 5:4:3 or 5:5:3, but not limited thereto. According to other embodiments, the target crop is Chinese cabbage, and the fertilizer concentration ratio of nitrogen: phosphorus: potassium (vol%) required for Chinese cabbage is about 4:3:3. The feed amount of various wastes can be adjusted by mass balance calculation, so that the nitrogen: phosphorus: potassium (vol%) in the composite source is about 2-6:2-6:2-6, for example, 5:4:4, but not limited thereto. According to other embodiments, the target crop is tomatoes, and the fertilizer concentration ratio of nitrogen:phosphorus:potassium (vol%) required for tomatoes is approximately 3:2:2. The feed amounts of various wastes can be adjusted through mass balance calculations so that the nitrogen:phosphorus:potassium (vol%) in the composite material source is approximately 2-5:2-5:2-5, for example, 4:3:3, but not limited to this.
[0043] Furthermore, the preparation method M1 of the adjustable organic fertilizer includes step S14: performing an anaerobic fermentation process on the composite material source. Further, the anaerobic fermentation process may include step S14-1: introducing the composite material source into an acidification tank to obtain a first mixture, and step S14-2: introducing the first mixture into a methanation tank to obtain a second mixture. The anaerobic fermentation process can be used to treat the composite material source to generate biogas residue, biogas slurry and biogas, and the biogas may contain methane. In detail, the anaerobic fermentation process can decompose and transform small molecular organic matter through the biochemical metabolism of microorganisms to produce biogas residue, biogas slurry and biogas. The anaerobic fermentation process can be performed by a high-temperature anaerobic co-digestion system including an acidification tank and a methanation tank.
[0044] The acidification tank contains acidifying bacteria, and the pH value of the acidification tank may be between 3 and 7.5, and the temperature may be between 30° C. and 60° C. According to some embodiments, the reaction pH value of the acidification tank may be pH 3.5, pH 4, pH 4.5, pH 5, pH 5.5, pH 6, pH 6.5, or pH 7, but is not limited thereto. According to some embodiments, the acidifying bacteria may include Defluviitoga, Thermoanaerobacterales, Syntrophomonadaceae, Synergistaceae, Limnochordales, Tepidimicrobium, Symbiobacterium, Syntrophaceticus, other suitable acidifying bacteria, or combinations thereof, but are not limited thereto.
[0045] According to some embodiments, the reaction temperature of the acidification tank may be between 35°C and 55°C, for example, 40°C, 45°C or 50°C, but not limited thereto. Furthermore, according to some embodiments, the capacity of the acidification tank may be between 5 liters and 10 liters, for example, 6 liters, 7 liters, 8 liters or 9 liters, but not limited thereto. According to some embodiments, the hydraulic retention time (HRT) of the acidification tank may be between 3 days and 10 days, for example, 4 days, 5 days, 6 days, 7 days, 8 days or 9 days, but not limited thereto.
[0046] The methanogen tank contains methanogens, and the pH value of the methanogen tank may be between 6 and 8, and the temperature may be between 30° C. and 60° C. According to some embodiments, the reaction pH value of the methanogen tank may be pH 6.5, pH 7, or pH 7.5, but is not limited thereto. According to some embodiments, the reaction temperature of the methanogen tank may be between 35° C. and 55° C., for example, 40° C., 45° C., or 50° C., but is not limited thereto. According to some embodiments, the methanogens may include Methanoculleus, Methanospirillum, Methanothermobacter, Methanosarcina, other suitable methanogens, or combinations thereof, but are not limited thereto. Furthermore, according to some embodiments, the capacity of the methanation tank may be between 10 liters and 20 liters, for example, 11 liters, 12 liters, 13 liters, 14 liters, 15 liters, 16 liters, 17 liters, 18 liters, or 19 liters, but not limited thereto. According to some embodiments, the hydraulic retention time of the methanation tank may be between 15 days and 25 days, for example, 16 days, 17 days, 18 days, 19 days, 20 days, 21 days, 22 days, 23 days, or 24 days, but not limited thereto.
[0047] According to some embodiments, the dominant acidifying bacteria in the anaerobic co-digestion system may include Defluviitoga, Thermoanaerobacterales, Syntrophomonadaceae, Synergistaceae, Limnochordales, Tepidimicrobium, Symbiobacterium, Syntrophaceticus, other suitable acidifying bacteria or a combination of the foregoing, but not limited thereto. According to some embodiments, the dominant acidifying bacteria account for about 35% to 55% of the microbial community, for example, 40%, 45% or 50%, but not limited thereto.
[0048] According to some embodiments, the dominant methanogens in the anaerobic co-digestion system include Methanoculleus, Methanospirillum, Methanothermobacter, and Methanosarcina. According to some embodiments, the dominant methanogens account for about 5% to 10% of the microbial community, for example, 6%, 7%, 8% or 9%, but are not limited thereto.
[0049] It is worth noting that as the rate of microbial hydrolysis, acidification and methane production increases, high concentrations of ammonia nitrogen will be released, inhibiting the metabolic pathways of anaerobic organisms. However, the acidifying bacteria and methanogens used in the embodiments of the present invention have the characteristics of being resistant to high ammonia nitrogen concentrations, which can improve the reaction rate of anaerobic fermentation, thereby accelerating the composting and stabilization of organic matter and converting it into an organic fertilizer with a fertilizer composition suitable for the target crops.
[0050] According to some embodiments, the total solid content (TS) of the feed (composite material source) can be increased by configuring the aforementioned anaerobic fermentation process. Specifically, according to some embodiments, the total solid content of the composite material source can be between 5% and 15%, for example, 6%, 7%, 8%, 9%, 10%, 11%, 12%, 13%, 14% or 15%, but is not limited thereto. Furthermore, according to some embodiments, the ammonia nitrogen concentration of the composite source may be between 800 mg / L and 4000 mg / L, or between 900 mg / L and 3000 mg / L, or between 1000 mg / L and 2500 mg / L, for example, 1100 mg / L, 1200 mg / L, 1300 mg / L, 1400 mg / L, 1500 mg / L, 1600 mg / L, 1700 mg / L, 1800 mg / L, 1900 mg / L, 2000 mg / L, 2100 mg / L, 2200 mg / L, 2300 mg / L or 2400 mg / L, but is not limited thereto.
[0051] According to some embodiments, the volatile suspended solids (VSS) removal rate of the aforementioned high temperature anaerobic co-digestion system can reach more than 60%, for example, more than 65%, more than 70%, or more than 75%. According to some embodiments, the chemical oxygen demand (COD) removal rate of the aforementioned high temperature anaerobic co-digestion system can reach more than 60%, for example, more than 65%, more than 70%, or more than 75%.
[0052] Next, the method M1 for preparing an adjustable organic fertilizer comprises step S16: separating the second mixture to obtain biogas slurry and biogas residue, wherein the biogas residue is an organic fertilizer. Specifically, the products of the anaerobic fermentation process can be separated into solid, liquid and gas to obtain biogas residue, biogas slurry and biogas. According to some embodiments, the biogas residue can be further concentrated and dehydrated. According to some embodiments, the biogas can be subjected to a biological desulfurization step to obtain methane, which can be used as natural gas for power generation.
[0053] It is noteworthy that the biogas residue obtained by separating the second mixture does not need to be adjusted for fertilizer and can be used as organic fertilizer. The biogas residue does not need to be subjected to aerobic composting and adding animal and plant meal to adjust the fertilizer, and can be directly applied to the soil. In other words, the preparation method M1 of the adjustable organic fertilizer may not include an aerobic fermentation step. Furthermore, according to some embodiments, the carbon / nitrogen (C / N) ratio of the obtained organic fertilizer may be between 10 and 20, for example, 11, 12, 13, 14, 15, 16, 17, 18 or 19, but is not limited thereto. The carbon / nitrogen (C / N) ratio of the obtained organic fertilizer meets the requirements of the Fertilizer Management Act (C / N<20). According to some embodiments, the fertilizer content of the organic fertilizer is substantially less than the fertilizer content in a variety of wastes. For example, the fertilizer content of a variety of wastes and organic fertilizers all contain total nitrogen, total phosphatic anhydride and total potassium oxide, and the ratio of total nitrogen: total phosphatic anhydride: total potassium oxide in the organic fertilizer is less than the ratio of total nitrogen: total phosphatic anhydride: total potassium oxide in the various wastes.
[0054] In order to make the above and other purposes, features, and advantages of the present invention more obvious and understandable, several embodiments and comparative examples are given below for detailed description, which are not intended to limit the contents of the present invention.
[0055] Example 1 - Material Source Characteristics Analysis
[0056] First, agricultural waste (crushed raw kitchen waste, cooked kitchen waste, etc.) and livestock manure (pig manure, chicken manure, pig urine, chicken urine, etc.) were collected as raw materials for composite material sources, and then the components of the aforementioned waste were analyzed using an inductively coupled plasma optical emission spectrometer (ICP-OES). The analysis results are shown in Table 1 below. The unit percentage (%) used in Table 1 is volume percentage (vol%).
[0057] Table 1
[0058]
[0059]
[0060] Furthermore, the soil nitrogen, phosphorus and potassium rapid screening reagent is used to confirm the fertilizer concentration. Agricultural waste is placed in a centrifuge tube, and after adding an appropriate polymer flocculant for solid water extraction, the clarified liquid in the upper layer of the centrifuge tube is taken and poured into the colorimetric container. The supernatant liquid is taken, and after adding the reagent powder and covering the cup lid, it is shaken vigorously to dissolve the powder in the supernatant liquid. The color of the middle window of the color box is observed, and the corresponding color scale is compared. The concentration of nitrogen fertilizer, phosphorus fertilizer and potassium fertilizer in the source can be quickly analyzed on-site at the test site. It should be noted that the rapid screening reagent is a laboratory-made color formula, the purpose of which is to confirm the range of nitrogen, phosphorus and potassium fertilizers in the actual field, and to determine the amount of waste feed in the field for subsequent allocation. After the laboratory-made formula is colored, the nitrogen, phosphorus and potassium concentration is accurately determined by ICP-OES.
[0061] Example 2 - Setting of conditions for anaerobic fermentation process and anaerobic fermentation process for composite material source
[0062] The present invention evaluates the treatment efficiency of the anaerobic fermentation system under two different test conditions, and the condition settings are shown in Table 2. As shown below, the present invention establishes two test processes, the volume of the acidification tank is 6 liters, the hydraulic retention time (HRT) is 5 days, and the volume of the methanation tank is 12 liters, and the hydraulic retention time is 20 days. The temperature of the acidification tank and the methanation tank is maintained at a high temperature of 55°C for continuous reaction. The system is fed every day, and the pH value, temperature and biogas production are recorded every day. At the same time, water quality analysis, solid / liquid digestate nutrient analysis and microbial flora analysis are performed weekly.
[0063] Table 2
[0064]
[0065] Fertilizers are grouped according to the analysis results of the components of the waste, and the amounts of various material sources used in the test process 1 and the test process 2 of the anaerobic fermentation system are calculated to form a composite material source.
[0066] Test 1 (total solid content 7.5%): 4.8% pig manure, 2.1% agricultural waste, 0.6% chicken manure, the total feed volume is 600mL, of which the feed volumes are 90mL (15%) of pig manure, 5mL (0.8%) of chicken manure, 85mL (14%) of agricultural waste, and 420mL (70%) of pig manure urine.
[0067] Test 2 (total solid content 7.6%): 5.1% pig manure, 1.8% agricultural waste, 0.7% chicken manure, the total feed volume is 600mL, of which the feed volumes are 140mL (23%) pig manure, 5mL (0.8%) chicken manure, 70mL (11.2%) agricultural waste, and 385mL (64.2%) pig manure urine.
[0068] In addition, the composition of the composite source was analyzed using an inductively coupled plasma optical emission spectrometer (ICP-OES), and the analysis results are shown in Table 3. The unit percentage (%) used in Table 3 is volume percentage (vol%).
[0069] Table 3
[0070]

[0072] As mentioned above, in Run 1, the feed source consisted of white pig manure (from pigs fed with feed), breeder chicken manure, agricultural waste, and white pig urine (from pigs fed with feed), with a total solid content (TS) concentration of 7.5%, a ratio (vol%) of 4.8:0.6:2.1 (pig manure: chicken manure: agricultural waste), and an ammonia nitrogen concentration of 1000 mg / L. In Run 2, the feed source consisted of black pig manure (from pigs fed with kitchen waste), chicken manure, agricultural waste, and black pig urine (from pigs fed with kitchen waste), with a total solid content concentration of 7.6%, a ratio (vol%) of 5.1:0.7:1.8 (pig manure: chicken manure: agricultural waste), and an ammonia nitrogen concentration of 2500 mg / L.

Figure 2CAs shown, the VSS removal efficiency of the anaerobic fermentation system in Test 1 and Test 2 can reach 62% and 78% respectively, indicating that high concentration of ammonia nitrogen does not inhibit the utilization of dissolved organic matter by microorganisms. In addition, the results of the microbial flora analysis of the anaerobic fermentation system using Next Generation Sequencing (NGS) showed that the dominant acidifying bacteria included Defluviitoga, Thermoanaerobacterales, Syntrophomonadaceae, Synergistaceae, Limnochordales, Tepidimicrobium, Symbiobacterium and Syntrophaceticus, accounting for about 46% of the microbial community; the dominant methanogens included Methanoculleus, Methanospirillum and Methanothermobacter, accounting for about 4% of the microbial community.
[0074] Example 3 - Formation of composite feed source based on target crop (lettuce) and anaerobic fermentation process
[0075] Taking lettuce as the target crop, the composition of the composite feed source was adjusted according to the required fertilizer concentration ratio of nitrogen: phosphorus: potassium (vol%) of about 2:2:1, and the fertilizer concentration in the composite feed source was adjusted to be higher than the fertilizer concentration set for the target crop. Through mass balance calculation, the nitrogen: phosphorus: potassium (vol%) of the composite feed source was 3.23:3.13:3.17, and the concentration ratio was about 3:3:3. Then, the composite feed source was subjected to the anaerobic fermentation process of trial 2 (ammonia nitrogen concentration was 3000 mg / L), and the product biogas slurry and biogas residue were separated to obtain biogas residue as organic fertilizer. Table 4 shows the results of the inductively coupled plasma optical emission spectrometer (ICP-OES) component analysis of the composite feed source, biogas slurry and biogas residue, biogas residue and biogas slurry. The unit percentage (%) used in Table 4 is all volume percentage (vol%).
[0076] Table 4
[0077]
[0078] As shown above, the analysis results show that the nitrogen:phosphorus:potassium (vol%) of the obtained biogas residue is 2.05:1.94:1.04, and the concentration ratio is about 2:2:1, which corresponds to the fertilizer required for lettuce growth, and can therefore be used as a suitable organic fertilizer.
[0079] Example 4 - Formation of composite feed source based on target crop (shallots) and anaerobic fermentation process
[0080] Green onions were used as the target crop. The composition of the composite feed source was adjusted according to the required fertilizer concentration ratio of nitrogen: phosphorus: potassium (vol%) of about 2:1:1. Based on the microbial species and metabolic energy required in the anaerobic fermentation process, the fertilizer concentration in the composite feed source was further adjusted to a higher fertilizer concentration than the target crop required, so as to retain some nitrogen, phosphorus and potassium fertilizers for the energy consumption required for microbial growth and metabolism. Through mass balance calculation, the nitrogen: phosphorus: potassium (vol%) of the composite feed source was 3.34:1.35:1.95, and the concentration ratio was about 3:1:2. Then, the composite feed source was subjected to the anaerobic fermentation process of trial 1 (ammonia nitrogen concentration was 1000 mg / L), and the product biogas slurry and biogas residue were separated to obtain biogas residue as organic fertilizer. Table 5 shows the composition analysis results of the composite feed source, biogas slurry and biogas residue, biogas residue and biogas slurry by inductively coupled plasma optical emission spectrometer (ICP-OES). The unit percentage (%) used in Table 5 is volume percentage (vol%).
[0081] Table 5
[0082]
[0083] As shown above, the analysis results show that the nitrogen:phosphorus:potassium (vol%) of the obtained biogas residue is 2.85:1.05:0.75, and the concentration ratio is about 3:1:1, which can correspond to the fertilizer required for the growth of green onions, and therefore can be used as a suitable organic fertilizer.
[0084] Example 5 - Potted Plant Trial of Target Crop (Lettuce)
[0085] The biogas residue (organic fertilizer) obtained in Example 4 was measured with a pH meter and conductivity, which showed that the pH value of the biogas residue was pH 7.4 and the electrical conductivity (EC) was 3.6 mS / cm. Next, 5 g of the biogas residue sample was placed in a conical flask, 100 ml of distilled water at 75-80°C was added, and the mixture was stirred evenly and allowed to stand for 3 hours to filter the infusion. 10 ml of the filtrate was placed in a culture dish with two layers of filter paper and 100 lettuce seeds. Next, the culture dish was placed in a constant temperature box at 25°C and cultured for about 4-5 days. The seeds that grew two complete cotyledons, roots and root hairs were judged to have germinated. In addition, a control group experiment was carried out using distilled water instead of the filtrate. In addition, the experiment was repeated 5 times for each sample.
[0086] Figure 3A as well as Figure 3B The growth status of seeds in the control group and the sludge sample group on the 0th day and the 3rd day are shown respectively. Figure 3CThe germination patterns of the seeds in the control group and the digestate sample group are shown. In addition, the germination rate and germination index (GI) of the seeds in the control group and the digestate sample group on the third day are calculated by the following formula:
[0087]
[0088] The germination index is used to determine whether the digestate has been fully fermented. Specifically, when the germination index is greater than 80%, it indicates that the digestate has been fully decomposed. Figure 3D As shown in FIG. 1 , the germination index of the biogas residue sample group (denoted as the embodiment group in the figure) is greater than 80%, indicating that the biogas residue has been fully decomposed. Figure 3C As shown, the root length can be effectively increased probably because of the trace nutrients contained in the biogas residue.
[0089] In addition, the composition elements of the biogas residue obtained in Example 4 were analyzed using an inductively coupled plasma optical emission spectrometer (ICP-OES), and the results are shown in Table 6 below. Among them, miscellaneous composts 5 to 11 are within the specification range of miscellaneous composts for fertilizers (item numbers 5 to 11) announced by the agency. As shown in Table 6, the residues of organic matter, total nitrogen, total phosphorus anhydride, total potassium oxide, heavy metal arsenic, cadmium, chromium, copper, mercury, nickel, lead, zinc, etc. in the biogas residue were also tested and analyzed, and all items met the specifications.

Figure 4A as well as Figure 4B As shown, compared with the control group and the comparative example group, the growth conditions of the aboveground and underground parts of the lettuce potted plants in the embodiment group were better.
[0094] Furthermore, the fresh weight, plant height and chlorophyll content of the potted plants were measured, wherein the chlorophyll content of the potted plants was measured using a SPAD-502 chlorophyll meter (the SPAD-502 chlorophyll meter can determine the relative amount of chlorophyll in the leaves by measuring the light transmittance of the leaves in two wavelength ranges), and the results are shown in the following Table 7. Compared with the comparative group of commercially available organic fertilizers, the above-ground fresh weight of the lettuce in the embodiment group increased by about 25%, the underground fresh weight increased by about 33%, the plant height increased by about 23%, and the chlorophyll content increased by about 24%.
