Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] The invention relates to the field of granular sludge, and in particular to salt-resistant granular sludge and application thereof. Background Art
[0002] The formation of granular sludge is actually a form of microbial immobilization, and its appearance is relatively regular spherical or elliptical black particles. The particle size of granular sludge is generally 0.1-3mm, and some large ones are 5mm, with a density of 1.04-1.08g / cm 3 , slightly heavier than water, with good sedimentation performance and methanogenic activity for degrading organic matter in water. Observed under an optical microscope, granular sludge has a porous structure with a layer of transparent colloid on the surface, on which bacteria are attached. The cell density of the granular sludge close to the outer surface is relatively high, the internal structure is loose and the cell density is relatively low. Granular sludge with larger particle size often has a cavity, which is caused by the autolysis of cells due to insufficient nutrition inside the granular sludge. Large and empty granular sludge is easy to break, and its broken fragments become the core of new granular sludge. Some large granular sludge will also float easily because the gas generated inside is not easy to release. In addition, the existing granular sludge has poor salt tolerance and is less effective in treating high-salinity sewage. Therefore, it is necessary to further develop a salt-tolerant granular sludge. Summary of the invention
[0003] The purpose of the present invention is to solve at least one of the technical problems existing in the prior art and to provide a salt-tolerant granular sludge and its application.
[0004] The technical solution of the present invention is as follows:
[0005] A salt-tolerant granular sludge is prepared by modifying Aspergillus tubingensis hyphae with modified Fe3O4 nanoparticles to obtain modified Aspergillus tubingensis hyphae, and then inoculating flocculent activated sludge, powdered activated carbon and the modified Aspergillus tubingensis hyphae into a first synthetic wastewater, culturing for 3-5 days, separating and transferring the sludge into a second synthetic wastewater and culturing for 6-8 days to obtain granular sludge with a particle size of 2-3.5 mm.
[0006] As a preferred embodiment of the present invention, the preparation method of the modified Fe3O4 nanoparticles is as follows:
[0007] The sodium silicate solution is added dropwise to the Fe3O4 suspension, and the pH is adjusted to 5-6 to obtain Fe3O4 nanoparticles coated with silica. The Fe3O4 nanoparticles coated with silica are further dissolved in toluene, and aminopropyltriethylsilane is added to obtain secondary coated Fe3O4 nanoparticles. The secondary coated Fe3O4 nanoparticles are then added to a glutaraldehyde aqueous solution and immersed for 4-6 hours, and then dispersed in a quaternary ammonium chitosan aqueous solution to obtain modified Fe3O4 nanoparticles.
[0008] As a preferred embodiment of the present invention, the preparation method of the modified Aspergillus tubingensis mycelium pellet is as follows:
[0009] Aspergillus tubingensis spores were transferred to potato dextrose agar plates and cultured at 25-30°C for 6-8 days for strain activation. The spores were collected and added to sterile distilled water to prepare a concentration of 8-10×10 5 spore / ml spore suspension was inoculated into a culture medium containing modified Fe3O4 nanoparticles and cultured at 145-155 rpm and 25-30°C for 1-3 days to obtain modified Aspergillus tubingensis mycelium pellets.
[0010] As a preferred embodiment of the present invention, the salt concentration of the first synthetic wastewater is 2000-3500 mg / L, and the salt concentration of the second synthetic wastewater is 3500-4000 mg / L.
[0011] As a preferred embodiment of the present invention, the dry weight ratio of the flocculent activated sludge, powdered activated carbon and modified Aspergillus tubingensis mycelium pellets is 3-5:1-2:1.
[0012] As a preferred embodiment of the present invention, the culture conditions are: 20-35°C, 4-6 minutes of sedimentation, 4-6 minutes of decantation and drainage, 90-110 minutes of standing, 4-6 minutes of filling with water, and 350-400 minutes of aeration.
[0013] As a preferred embodiment of the present invention, the oxygen concentration during aeration is controlled to be 3-5 mg / L.
[0014] The present invention also discloses an application of the salt-tolerant granular sludge as described above in high-salt wastewater, wherein the sodium chloride content of the high-salt wastewater is 40-60 g / L.
[0015] The beneficial effects of the present invention are:
[0016] The present invention modifies the surface of Aspergillus tubingensis hyphae so that the surface has cations, which helps it to attract sludge microorganisms with negative charges on the cell surface, is more conducive to nucleation and agglomeration to form granular sludge, and further improves the biological activity of the granular sludge; the activity of β-galactosidase of Aspergillus tubingensis is significantly activated in a high-salt environment, and it can continuously accumulate salt and stimulate the secretion of a large amount of extracellular polysaccharides, thereby having significant salt resistance and excellent pollution removal properties.
