Description

Technical Field

[0001] The invention belongs to the field of aquaculture wastewater treatment technology and biotechnology, and in particular, relates to a protein-producing filamentous algae and application thereof in dairy farm wastewater treatment. Background Art

[0002] At present, the world economy is developing rapidly, and the scale of agriculture and breeding is expanding. Dairy farming accounts for a large part of livestock and poultry farming. The expansion of the number and scale of dairy farms has led to a large amount of wastewater generated and discharged from dairy farms. The main pollutants in dairy farm wastewater, such as COD, total nitrogen and SS, are very high; however, unlike other livestock and poultry wastewater, the salt content in dairy farm wastewater is high. This is because during the dairy farming process, dairy cows need to supplement salt or lick salt bricks every day. This is a need for the growth and development of ruminants. It can regulate the pH value of green feed and rumen, improve feed digestibility and utilization, and avoid chronic acidosis, anorexia, metabolic abnormalities, decreased milk production, and low-acid alcohol-positive milk production. Damage to dairy cows. According to statistics, the salt content in dairy farm wastewater is 0.6-2.2%. When the salt concentration of sewage reaches 0.5% or more, it is called "high-salt sewage."

[0003] At present, most dairy farms use anaerobic fermentation and oxidative storage treatment. Although this method has low economic cost, the effect of treating wastewater is average and is greatly affected by season and weather. Some researchers have also proposed adding chemical agents or combining them with electrochemistry. Although these methods will improve the treatment effect, they will also greatly increase the economic cost and have no resource regeneration value. In recent years, microalgae have been widely used in wastewater treatment due to their advantages such as fast growth rate, high photosynthesis efficiency, strong adaptability to the environment, high economic feasibility, and strong ability to produce biomass.

[0004] Studies have shown that compared with conventional microbial treatment methods (e.g., anaerobic-anoxic-aerobic, A 2 Compared with conventional wastewater treatment technology, microalgae wastewater treatment technology does not require additional carbon sources, thereby reducing the investment cost of wastewater treatment processes; it does not produce sludge bulking, excess sludge and secondary pollution problems; at the same time, microalgae can also reduce greenhouse gas emissions. Most importantly, the microalgae biomass produced by this technology can be used as raw materials for high-value products such as biofuels, feed, and fertilizers, realizing waste resource utilization. According to estimates, 158.2g of biomass products can be obtained by treating 1 liter of sewage, thereby saving about 0.14-1.19 yuan in microalgae breeding costs, while fixing about 208.4g of CO2, assimilating about 10.09g of nitrogen and absorbing about 1.376g of phosphorus, bringing environmental benefits.

[0005] However, there are still many problems in using microalgae to treat livestock and poultry wastewater. On the one hand, microalgae cultivated by traditional methods have poor tolerance and insufficient wastewater purification capabilities, making it difficult to adapt to the complex environment of dairy farm wastewater; therefore, we should continue to look for new microalgae varieties that can adapt to the characteristics of dairy farm wastewater. On the other hand, the subsequent utilization value of microalgae biomass is very important. Traditionally cultivated or commercially available microalgae have insufficient protein content, and methods of increasing the protein content of microalgae by adding nutrients usually have high economic costs. Therefore, screening out new microalgae varieties with higher protein content will be of practical significance to meet the market demand for protein and enhance the subsequent utilization value of microalgae. Summary of the invention

[0033] Example 1

[0034] Screening and identification of filamentous algae

[0035] (1) Isolation and cultivation of filamentous algae

[0036] Take the soil next to the wastewater storage tank of the dairy farm, put 10g of soil sample into 20mL of high salt solution, with a salt content of 0.5%, NaCl:Na2HCO3=1:1 (mass ratio), stir well and let it stand for 10min. Take an appropriate amount for coating plate operation, use BG11 solid culture medium (salt content of 0.2%, NaCl:Na2HCO3 mass ratio of 1:1), after a single algae grows on the plate, pick a single algae to the growth medium. Culture for 15 days at a temperature of 25℃, 3000Lux of light, and a light-dark ratio of 16:8 hours to obtain the algae solution of the knotted filamentous algae. After obtaining the algae solution of the single algae species knotted filamentous algae ZSL-NS2, expand the culture until there is enough algae solution (volume ratio during expansion: algae solution: culture medium = 1:5).

[0037] The formula of growth medium (BG11): sodium nitrate 1.5g, potassium dihydrogen phosphate 0.04g, magnesium sulfate heptahydrate 0.075g, calcium chloride dihydrate 0.036g, ammonium ferric citrate 0.006g, citric acid 0.006g, disodium ethylenediaminetetraacetic acid 0.001g, sodium carbonate 0.02g, trace element mother solution 1mL, add water to make up to 1000mL, adjust the pH to about 7.1, and sterilize at 121℃ for 20min.

[0038] The formula of trace element mother solution: boric acid 2.86g / L, manganese chloride tetrahydrate 1.86g / L, zinc sulfate heptahydrate 0.22g / L, copper sulfate pentahydrate 0.08g / L, sodium molybdate dihydrate 0.39g / L; cobalt nitrate hexahydrate 0.05g / L, add water to make up to 1000mL.

[0039] (2) Morphological identification of microalgae

[0040] A small amount of sample was observed under an Olympus BX53 microscope and the image was acquired using an Olympus DP80 ( Figure 1 ). The filaments are solitary, unbranched, blue-green, sometimes forming nodules, usually with a colorless thin sheath. The filaments are immobile, and the cell walls are slightly or obviously constricted. The cell length is usually greater than the width, sometimes the length is equal to the width, 2-4μm long, 1-2.5μm wide, with peritrichous thylakoids, and no air sacs.

[0041] (3) Phylogenetic analysis

[0042] Phylogenetic tree based on 16S rDNA sequences of cells ( Figure 2 ) showed that the microalgae sample Contig 1 was closely related to the genus Nodosilinea and was located on the same evolutionary branch.

[0043] Example 2

[0044] Growth performance of filamentous algae in dairy wastewater

[0045] (1) The separation and expansion of filamentous algae were the same as in Example 1.

[0046] (2) Wastewater (COD: 4633.3±50.2mg / L; ammonia nitrogen: 451.5±26.7mg / L; total nitrogen: 695.8±40.9mg / L, salinity: 2.1‰, pH=7.9) needs to be treated in four steps: coarse filtration, centrifugation, refiltration, and dilution.

[0047] Take the algae liquid of the logarithmic growth period of the filamentous algae. The volume ratio of the algae liquid to the wastewater is 1:5. Add 50mL of the algae liquid to 250mL of the wastewater, and the corresponding algae dry weight is 0.2g / L. The algae liquid is centrifuged at 7000-8000r / min for 10 minutes. After centrifugation, the upper culture medium is removed, and the filamentous algae balls are added to the wastewater, and shake or stir evenly to avoid the filamentous algae agglomeration or precipitation. The wastewater dilution is 25%, 50% and 75%. Set the light intensity to 4000-5000Lux, the light-dark ratio to 12:12 hours, and the temperature to 25℃. Treat for a total of 12 days. Use air circulation or shaking to prevent the microalgae from settling or sticking to the wall. Take samples to measure dry weight, chlorophyll, biomass yield and composition, etc.

[0048] On the 12th day, the dry weight of filamentous algae could reach a maximum of 2.167 g / L, and the protein, polysaccharide and oil yields were 155, 128.5 and 86.8 μg / mL, respectively; the dry weight and chlorophyll yields were 2.14 g / L and 5.28 mg / L, respectively.

[0049] Example 3

[0050] Effect of filamentous algae on treatment of dairy wastewater

[0051] (1) The separation and expansion of filamentous algae were the same as in Example 1.

[0052] (2) Treatment of dairy farm wastewater: The treatment steps were similar to those in Example 2. After 12 days of treatment, samples were taken to determine the chemical oxygen demand, total nitrogen, total phosphorus, and ammonia nitrogen content.

[0053] Its total phosphorus removal rate can reach 99.48%; the ammonia nitrogen removal rate is as high as 93.83%; the COD removal rate is as high as 82.3% and the TN removal rate is as high as 88.7% ( Figure 4 ).

[0054] Example 4

[0055] BG11 was used to expand the culture of filamentous algae, and then dried at low temperature of 60℃ and ground into algae powder. Algae powder was used to replace 0% (T0), 10% (T10), 20% (T20), 30% (T30) and 50% (T50) of the basic feed of grass carp. The experimental fish were purchased from an aquaculture farm. Feeding was stopped 24 hours before the formal experiment. 150 healthy grass carps of uniform size (initial body weight was about 100.±2.3g) were selected and randomly assigned to 15 fish tanks. There were 5 treatment groups in the experiment, 3 parallel fish tanks in each treatment group, and 10 fish in each fish tank.

[0056] The results showed that adding algae powder could increase the weight of grass carp by an average of 0%-10.5%, among which replacing 20% ​​of the original feed had the best effect, and replacing 0%-50% was beneficial to the growth and development of grass carp.

[0057] From the above examples, it can be seen that the provided filamentous algae with excellent growth can show excellent pollution resistance and pollutant purification ability in dairy wastewater of different dilutions. In addition, the filamentous algae can produce biomass while purifying pollutants. The present invention provides an excellent algae strain for the production of microalgae-related products and in the process of aquaculture wastewater treatment.
