Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] The invention relates to a composite vertical flow artificial wetland, belonging to the technical field of water treatment. Background Art
[0002] At present, the secondary effluent or tail water of urban sewage treatment plants in my country still contains a large amount of nitrogen, phosphorus and other substances. Constructed wetlands are widely used in the treatment of secondary effluent or tail water of sewage treatment plants as a deep treatment technology for denitrification and phosphorus removal. Since the secondary effluent or tail water of sewage treatment plants has less organic matter content and a low carbon-nitrogen ratio, it affects the nitrification and denitrification of microorganisms, resulting in low denitrification and phosphorus removal effects. At the same time, the operation effect of artificial wetlands is not good in winter due to low temperatures. Therefore, it is of great significance to develop a stable and efficient constructed wetland to solve the problem of urban sewage. Summary of the invention
[0003] In view of the shortcomings of the prior art, the present invention aims to provide a composite vertical flow artificial wetland. The artificial wetland can efficiently remove nitrogen and phosphorus, can still operate stably in a low temperature environment, occupies a small area, is low in cost, and can effectively solve the problem of urban sewage.
[0004] In order to achieve the above technical objectives, the present invention provides a composite vertical flow artificial wetland, which comprises a glass porous cross-linked modified slow-release carbon source matrix filler layer, wherein the glass porous cross-linked modified slow-release carbon source matrix is prepared by a cross-linking reaction between a glass porous matrix loaded with nano zero-valent iron and an alkali-treated modified biocarbon material.
[0005] The glass porous cross-linked modified slow-release carbon source matrix in the present invention can effectively control the release of the carbon source and has an excellent heat preservation effect. Among them, the micro-electrolysis of nano zero-valent iron can promote the release of aromatic protein substances and fulvic acid substances in the carbon source, promote the carbon release process of the solid carbon source, and also act as an inorganic electron donor and reducing agent to provide electrons for denitrifying bacteria to perform anaerobic respiration, reducing nitrate nitrogen to N2 or NO2 - , and also acts as a deoxidizer, which can ensure the anaerobic environment of biological denitrification in the packing layer and promote the enrichment of denitrifying microorganisms in the packing layer; the carbon release performance of the modified biocarbon material treated with alkali is enhanced, the carbon release rate is increased, and the nitrogen and phosphorus release amount is low. The modified slow-release carbon source acts as an organic electron donor to provide a carbon source for denitrifying bacteria. The glass porous cross-linked modified slow-release carbon source matrix of the present invention greatly improves the denitrification efficiency and stability of the artificial wetland system through the synergistic denitrification of the modified slow-release carbon source, nano zero-valent iron and glass porous materials. As a preferred scheme, the preparation process of the glass porous cross-linked modified slow-release carbon source matrix is: the alkali-treated modified biocarbon material and water are mixed and heated to gelatinize to obtain a gelatinized liquid; the gelatinized liquid is cross-linked with polyvinyl alcohol, a foaming agent and a glass porous matrix loaded with nano zero-valent iron, and then freeze-formed to obtain the product.
[0006] Among them, polyvinyl alcohol (PVA) has abundant hydroxyl (-OH) functional groups, which can form hydrogen bonds with biocarbon materials to form stable slow-release complexes.

[0034] As a preferred solution, the downstream flow pool and the upstream flow pool are separated by an intermediate wall, and the bottoms of the downstream flow pool and the upstream flow pool are connected, sewage flows from the surface of the downstream flow pool to the bottom of the downstream flow pool and flows into the bottom of the upstream flow pool through the bottom connection, and then flows out through the surface of the upstream flow pool, wherein the surface of the upstream flow pool has an aerated aerobic zone, and the surface of the downstream flow pool has a reflow aerobic zone, part of the sewage in the aerobic zone of the upstream flow pool is reflowed to the reflow aerobic zone on the surface of the downstream flow pool through a reflow pump, and the bottoms of the upstream flow pool and the downstream flow pool are both anaerobic zones.
[0035] The present invention utilizes the water flow characteristics of the composite vertical flow artificial wetland (downflow pool, upstream pool), adds a glass porous cross-linked modified slow-release carbon source matrix to the bottom filler layer, and forms an anoxic denitrification environment at the bottom of the pool body; utilizes the surface aeration system of the upstream pool to form an aerobic environment on the surface of the upstream pool, and produces a large number of electron donors in the aerobic environment; at the same time, returns part of the sewage from the upstream pool to the downstream pool, and returns the electron donors to the aerobic zone through the surface of the downstream pool and then flows to the anaerobic area at the bottom of the pool to promote denitrification. Based on artificial wetlands, this method combines the A / O process principle to form anoxic zones and aerobic zones in artificial wetlands, and returns part of the sewage in the aerobic zone to the front end, further improving the nitrogen and phosphorus removal effects of the system. The relevant design layout of the composite vertical flow artificial wetland is shown in the present invention. Figure 1 and Figure 2 .
[0036] Because the composite vertical flow artificial wetland is divided into a downstream pool and an upstream pool, the sewage passes through the packing layer twice under the same floor space conditions, which greatly improves the removal efficiency of pollutants. At the same time, adding nano zero-valent iron to the artificial wetland packing layer, nano zero-valent iron as a deoxidizer, can make the lower layer of the artificial wetland in an anaerobic / anoxic environment, and the composite vertical flow artificial wetland can increase the residence time of sewage in the lower layer, ensure the denitrification reaction of denitrifying bacteria, and the polyphosphate bacteria release phosphorus anaerobically and consume part of the ammonia nitrogen, thereby improving the denitrification efficiency. A solar surface aeration device is set on the surface of the upstream pool to make the surface of the upstream pool in an aerobic environment, so that the polyphosphate bacteria excessively absorb phosphorus, organic matter is degraded by microorganisms, and the nitrification reaction of nitrifying bacteria is beneficial to the denitrification and phosphorus removal efficiency of the system. At the same time, part of the mixed liquid in the upstream pool is pumped back to the downstream pool to further degrade the nitrification reaction products.

[0048] The simulated artificial wetland test device is made of plexiglass and consists of two cubic containers, simulating the downstream flow pool and the upstream flow pool respectively. The dimensions of both containers are 1m×1m×1m. The water level is controlled at 0.9m high and the surface hydraulic load is 0.9 m 3 / (m 2 ·d), the hydraulic retention time of sewage in the device is 24 h. This combined equipment and the downstream flow tank adopt a downward water distribution method. The sewage flows from top to bottom, connected by a pipe with a diameter of φ50 mm at the bottom, flows to the bottom of the upstream flow tank, and flows from bottom to top, and is discharged at the outlet of the upstream flow tank. At the same time, a pipe with a diameter of φ50 mm and a return pump are set to return part of the sewage from the upstream flow tank to the downstream flow tank.
[0049] A water inlet perforated pipe with a diameter of φ50 mm and an opening of φ7.5 mm is arranged on the upper layer of the downstream pool of the simulated composite vertical flow artificial wetland test device. The surrounding area is covered with gravel (particle size 10-30 mm) with a thickness of 100-150 mm. The bottoms of the two containers are connected by a φ50 mm pipe.

[0052] The temperature was maintained at 30℃, and the sewage entered the device through the water distribution pipes. The experiment was started after the treatment effect of the reactor was stable. After the hydraulic retention time was 24h, the water outlet of the outlet pipe was monitored. After measurement, the removal rates of various pollutants in the outlet water of the device were shown in Table 1.
