Description

Technical Field

[0001] The invention belongs to the technical field of resources and environment, and specifically relates to a method for preparing a thermoplastic composite material based on the blending of municipal sludge and carbon conversion products. Background Art

[0002] Municipal sludge is solid waste discharged from municipal sewage treatment facilities. Its form is affected by the moisture content and is solid or semi-solid. It contains a large number of microbial cells, pathogens and pollutants. The output of municipal sludge is huge, accounting for about 0.05-1% of sewage COD. If it is disposed of arbitrarily without treatment, it will cause serious soil, water and air pollution and pose a risk to human health. In order to solve the problem of municipal sludge treatment and disposal, a number of corresponding technologies have been developed, such as incineration, composting and sanitary landfill, to achieve the goals of sludge reduction, stabilization and harmlessness. However, in the current mainstream sludge treatment and disposal technologies, it is difficult to achieve synergy between energy consumption, secondary pollution and treatment effect. Generally speaking, sludge treatment accounts for more than 50% of the total cost of sewage treatment. If the cost of municipal sludge treatment and disposal can be reduced, the total cost of sewage treatment will be effectively reduced while achieving efficient sewage treatment, achieving energy saving and consumption reduction.

[0003] The resource utilization of municipal sludge mainly includes reuse in building materials, agriculture, energy and other fields, which has high requirements for the level of equipment and facilities, the level of economic development of the location and the technical level of operators. At present, the harmless disposal rate of sludge in my country has reached 73.5%, while the resource utilization rate is less than 30%. Expanding the types of resource conversion technologies and application fields of municipal surplus sludge is the main way to improve the resource utilization rate of sludge.

[0004] The organic matter content in municipal sludge is usually 40% to 80%, mainly in the form of microbial cells. The reasonable recovery or utilization of organic matter components is the core issue in sludge resource technology. Microplastics refer to plastic particles with a diameter of less than 5 mm. Their sources include the aging and decomposition of large plastics, microbeads for daily and industrial use, etc., and are widely present in sewage. Among them, in the sewage treatment process, most of the microplastics are collected in municipal sludge and enter the subsequent process with the treatment and disposal of sludge. The sewage treatment process has a high removal effect on microplastics in sewage, reaching more than 90%. Microplastics in sewage treatment plants are intercepted in large quantities in sludge through various processes. These microplastics enriched in sludge will change their occurrence form and transfer in time and space with the treatment and disposal of sludge, and enter a variety of environments and media. In particular, pathogens and pollutants contained in the sludge itself will be loaded on microplastics when they coexist with microplastics, superimposing ecological risks. How to take into account the treatment of microplastics in the resource utilization of sludge has not received effective attention in the field of sludge resource utilization.

[0005] Rice husk refers to the outer shell of rice grains, which is agricultural waste removed during the rice milling process. Usually, straw-type agricultural waste can be converted into biogas, feed, and fuel. However, due to the morphological characteristics of rice husks, such as fine particles, sharp edges, and loose stacking, their feasibility as a resource is limited. Expanding the scope of resource utilization of rice husks is a technical difficulty in related fields.

[0006] In summary, sludge resource utilization can take into account both energy consumption and conversion to useful products, and is a more promising technical solution for municipal residual sludge. However, existing sludge resource utilization technologies have high requirements for equipment, technology, economy and personnel quality. How to explore new sludge resource utilization technologies with lower equipment requirements, simpler operation procedures and richer application scenarios is the focus of research and application in this field. Resource utilization technology that takes into account both municipal sludge and agricultural rice husk waste is of great significance for solving the current treatment and disposal problems of municipal and agricultural solid waste and reasonably improving their economic benefits. It is also an exploration of new quality productivity to promote comprehensive resource utilization. Summary of the invention
