Description

Technical Field

[0001] The invention relates to the technical field of biogas production, and more specifically to a biogas liquid internal circulation straw dry-type high-temperature anaerobic fermentation device and method. Background Art

[0002] In recent years, with the intensive development of the breeding industry and the popularization of fossil energy, straw, which was originally used as livestock feed and rural life energy, has gradually become agricultural production waste, resulting in resource waste and causing a series of environmental problems. Anaerobic biogas production from straw can bring significant energy and environmental benefits and is considered to be one of the most promising ways to solve the problem. Anaerobic fermentation is mainly divided into two process technologies: wet anaerobic fermentation and dry anaerobic fermentation according to concentration.

[0003] The straw wet anaerobic technology is mature, but it has the following disadvantages: 1. The straw density is small, and it is easy to float and form a crust and block the discharge pipe, which poses a safety hazard; 2. The straw and the inoculum are separated, which reduces the gas production efficiency of the reaction system; 3. The mechanical stirring consumes a lot of energy; 4. The anaerobic concentration is low, and a large amount of biogas liquid is produced, causing environmental pollution. The result is low anaerobic efficiency and restricts the development of the straw biogas industry.

[0004] Straw dry anaerobic fermentation technology has the advantages of water conservation, large processing capacity, large gas production, strong volumetric capacity, and low processing cost. There are many studies on dry anaerobic abroad and it is relatively mature, and industrial applications have been reported; due to strict confidentiality, the technology is difficult to obtain; and due to the differences in material properties at home and abroad, the direct use of foreign dry anaerobic equipment causes many engineering problems that cannot be solved, limiting the promotion and application of dry anaerobic fermentation technology. Although there are studies on dry anaerobic fermentation technology and equipment in China, the mass transfer, heat transfer, acidification problems caused by high solid content materials in dry anaerobic fermentation and the contradiction between large-scale material input and output and anaerobic sealing state have not been effectively solved. And there are still the following problems:

[0005] (1) The dry fermentation reaction substrate concentration is high, and mass and energy transfer and diffusion are difficult, which easily leads to excessive accumulation of intermediate metabolites during anaerobic startup and operation, thus forming feedback inhibition;

[0006] (2) The dry fermentation substrate is difficult to distribute evenly and has poor fluidity, resulting in poor temperature uniformity in the equipment, especially the high-temperature anaerobic system is difficult to control and the continuous operation is unstable;

[0007] (3) Dry fermentation has high stirring resistance and the substrate is difficult to stir and mix;

[0008] (4) The dry fermentation of old materials and sludge recirculation relies on external equipment such as pumps, which consumes a lot of energy.

[0009] Therefore, it is necessary to research and develop a high-temperature anaerobic fermentation equipment and method for straw with internal circulation of biogas slurry to solve the above problems. Summary of the invention
