Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] The present invention relates to the technical field of resource recovery, and specifically relates to a method for resource recovery and utilization of expired oat milk carbon source. Background Art
[0002] In recent years, oat milk featuring "0 sucrose / 0 lactose / 0 cholesterol / 0 preservatives" has gradually become a standard for fitness enthusiasts. Recently, domestic research institutions found that oat milk is not the same as oats plus milk, and the fat content of nearly half of the oat milk is similar to that of milk. Oat milk is actually a grain beverage made from oats and water. The consumption of oat milk is increasing, and the generation of expired oat milk is also increasing. Moreover, as China pays more and more attention to environmental protection. The most abundant nutrient component in oat milk is carbohydrates, followed by fat and protein. Therefore, oat milk is a good carbon source. With the increasingly strict environmental standards, the treatment process of expired oat milk will become more and more complex and the cost will become higher and higher. Therefore, the recovery and utilization of expired oat milk has practical significance.
[0003] Most dairy wastewater in daily life is usually treated by physical and chemical treatment methods such as oil separation, coagulation flotation, and electrochemically assisted flocculation, as well as biochemical treatment methods such as biological filter, contact oxidation, aeration tank, and oxidation ditch. However, because the biochemical method has higher efficiency, lower cost and is more favored in removing soluble chemical oxygen demand. The treatment methods of general dairy wastewater tend to reduce the COD content in the wastewater to meet the wastewater discharge standard and prevent the pollution of soil and water resources by proteins, fats, etc. However, the rich nutritional functional components such as starch, protein, dietary fiber and lipids in expired oat milk are not effectively utilized, resulting in waste of resources and environmental pollution. Summary of the Invention
