Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This invention relates to the field of high-salt organic wastewater treatment, specifically to a photoelectric integrated assisted biodegradation system for high-salt organic wastewater. Background Technology
[0002] With the rapid development of my country's industrial and agricultural economy, freshwater resources are becoming increasingly scarce, fossil fuels are being depleted, and environmental pollution is becoming more and more prominent. Consequently, the sustainable treatment and resource utilization of wastewater have received close attention. Large quantities of high-salinity wastewater are generated in industrial processes such as marine food processing, dyeing and printing, oil and gas, and drinking water treatment. High-salinity organic wastewater has the following characteristics: complex and difficult-to-degrade organic pollutants, high chemical oxygen demand (CODcr) concentration, large fluctuations in water quality, high toxicity, high salt content, and poor biodegradability. Direct discharge or diluted discharge of untreated saline organic wastewater not only threatens the aquatic ecological environment but also wastes resources and hinders sustainable social development.
[0003] Currently, the main methods for treating high-salinity organic wastewater include coagulation sedimentation, adsorption, biological methods, and advanced oxidation processes. Coagulation sedimentation only transfers the toxic pollutants in the wastewater, without degrading them. Adsorption methods generate waste adsorbent materials that are difficult to treat, and also only transfer the pollutants without degradation. Biological methods are easily affected by the salinity and toxicity of the wastewater, resulting in low treatment efficiency. Advanced oxidation processes suffer from low TOC removal rates and the susceptibility of reactive free radicals to quenching. Therefore, developing a novel integrated technology for treating high-salinity organic wastewater that combines the advantages of various technologies while mitigating their disadvantages is of great practical significance. Summary of the Invention
[0004] This invention addresses the problems of high energy consumption, low TOC removal rate, high toxicity of recalcitrant organic pollutants, easy quenching of reactive free radicals, and easy generation of secondary halogenated toxic organic pollutants in the treatment of high-salinity wastewater. It provides a photoelectric integrated assisted biodegradation method for high-salinity organic wastewater and its application. The technical solution of this invention is as follows:
[0005] A photoelectric integrated assisted biodegradation system for high-salt organic wastewater, the system comprising a light enhancement system, an electrochemical system, and a bioelectrochemical system;
[0006] The bioelectrochemical system includes a bioanode and a composite cathode, with a resistor connected between the bioanode and the composite cathode.
[0007] The light enhancement system includes a light source disposed on one side of the composite cathode;
[0008] The electrochemical system includes an electrochemical anode and an electrochemical cathode, forming an electrochemical chamber between them. An overflow port is provided at the top of the electrochemical chamber. The electrochemical anode and electrochemical cathode are connected to a bioanode and a composite cathode respectively via wires. An inlet is provided at the bottom of the electrochemical chamber, and an outlet is provided near the bioanode.
[0009] A bioelectrochemical region is formed between the bioanode and the electrochemical chamber, and a photo-enhanced bioelectrochemical region is formed between the composite cathode and the electrochemical chamber.
[0010] The bioanode consists of a carbon substrate with a biofilm and biochar attached to the biofilm. The carbon substrate can be carbon cloth or carbon felt. The biofilm is cultivated by attaching it to anaerobic sludge. After the biofilm matures, the biochar layer is attached to the surface of the biofilm to form the bioanode. The amount of biochar attached is controlled by the biochar concentration and attachment time. The biochar concentration is 0.5-1 g / L and the attachment time is 5-10 days.
[0011] The composite cathode is prepared by selecting one of carbon cloth, carbon brush, carbon felt, or graphite rod as the carbon substrate and bonding (coating method) graphene or molybdenum disulfide catalyst to the surface of the carbon substrate.
[0012] The electrode substrates for the electrochemical anode and electrochemical cathode are carbon materials, which are graphite rods, carbon felts, or carbon brushes.
[0013] The resistance is 500 to 2000 Ω.
[0014] The light source is sunlight, a 150W-300W xenon lamp as artificial visible light, or an 18W-36W ultraviolet light source.
[0015] In the application of the system to biodegrade high-salt organic wastewater, the high-salt organic wastewater enters the electrochemical chamber through the inlet, enters the photo-enhanced bioelectrochemical zone through the overflow outlet, and then flows horizontally to the bioelectrochemical zone. The treated effluent is discharged through the outlet.
[0016] When the optoelectronic integrated assisted biodegradation system for high-salt organic wastewater is in operation, the wastewater to be treated enters the electrochemical chamber through the inlet at the bottom of the electrochemical chamber, then enters the photo-enhanced bioelectrochemical zone through the overflow port, and then flows horizontally to the bioelectrochemical zone. After being treated in the three zones, the wastewater is discharged through the outlet. The residence time of the wastewater in the system is 24 to 48 hours.
[0017] The organic pollutants involved in this invention are typical pollutants in wastewater such as pharmaceutical wastewater and high-salt wastewater from coal chemical industry; the salinity of the high-salt organic wastewater is 1%-4%, the COD is 1000-5000 mg / L, and it contains at least one of antibiotics or polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons; specifically, the toxic pollutants involved in the examples are sulfamethoxazole and / or polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbon phenanthrene.
[0018] Beneficial effects
[0019] This invention addresses the practical problem of effectively treating high-salinity organic wastewater. It combines the advantages of photocatalysis, bioelectrochemical technology, and electrochemical oxidation to achieve a powerful synergy, promoting the effective treatment of high-salinity organic wastewater. In this invention, the bioanode innovatively attaches biochar to the surface of the biofilm, mitigating the decrease in activity caused by direct contact between microorganisms and salt. Furthermore, the treatment via a photo-enhanced bioelectrochemical zone alleviates the low removal rate caused by chlorine quenching of free radicals, thereby improving the TOC removal rate of organic pollutants.
