Anaerobic digestion technology, which generates methane through the decomposition of organic matter by microorganisms, has become an important energy production pathway. In China, approximately 60 to 70 million tons of traditional Chinese medicine residue are produced annually. Currently, most of this residue is disposed of through stacking, burning, or landfill, resulting in resource waste and environmental pollution. As a by-product of pharmaceutical processing, drug residue is rich in organic components and has a high potential for methane production during anaerobic digestion. Using drug residue for anaerobic digestion not only contributes to waste resource utilization but also provides a viable solution to alleviate global energy shortages. However, the complex structure of drug residue makes it difficult for microorganisms to directly degrade it, resulting in low anaerobic digestion efficiency and low methane production.

[0033] The following will clearly and completely describe the technical solutions in the embodiments of the present invention in conjunction with the accompanying drawings. Obviously, the described embodiments are only part of the embodiments of the present invention, not all of the embodiments. Based on the embodiments of the present invention, all other embodiments obtained by ordinary technicians in this field without making creative efforts are within the scope of protection of the present invention.
[0034] Example:
[0035] See also Figure 1- Figure 4 As shown, the method for improving biogas production by anaerobic digestion of medicinal residues through multi-stage coordinated treatment is characterized by comprising the following steps:
[0036] After the solid medicinal residue is crushed, it is sieved and classified to obtain medicinal residue crushed material;
[0037] Adding crushed medicinal residues to water to form a mixture to be pretreated, and pretreating the mixture to be pretreated using ultrasound and electricity to obtain a pretreated mixture;
[0038] adding Tween-80 modified iron foam to the pretreated mixture to form a fermentation mixture, and placing the fermentation mixture in a fermentation tank with a spatial magnetic field to perform anaerobic digestion;
[0039] Collect biogas from the fermentation tank;
[0040] The residue in the fermentation tank is collected, and the Tween-80 modified iron foam in the residue is recovered.
[0041] As shown above, solid medicinal residue is pulverized and then subjected to ultrasonic and electrical pretreatment. Tween-80-modified iron foam is then added to the pretreated mixture and placed in a fermenter with a magnetic field for anaerobic digestion, thereby generating biogas. Ultrasonic cavitation, mechanical vibration, and thermal effects disrupt the cell walls and fiber structure of the medicinal residue, releasing more soluble organic matter and improving its biodegradability. The electric field alters the charge distribution on the surface of the medicinal residue particles, disrupting the cell membrane structure and promoting the release of intracellular organic matter. Furthermore, the electric field induces electrophoresis and electroosmosis, further disrupting the structure of the medicinal residue. Tween-80 is a nonionic surfactant that can improve the surface properties of the iron foam, enhancing its adsorption capacity and biocompatibility. The porous structure of the iron foam provides a large specific surface area, which is conducive to the attachment and growth of microorganisms. Furthermore, the iron foam releases Fe2+ and Fe3+ ions during anaerobic digestion. Magnetic fields can influence microbial metabolic activity and enzyme activity, promoting microbial growth and reproduction. Appropriate magnetic field strength can enhance microbial metabolic activity and improve the efficiency of anaerobic digestion. Under the action of the spatial magnetic field, Fe2+ and Fe3+ may form a dynamic balance, which not only provides the electron donor Fe2+, but also generates the more oxidizing Fe3+, optimizing the overall environment of the anaerobic digestion system. Anaerobic microorganisms with enhanced metabolic activity can efficiently convert the organic matter in the medicinal residue into biogas.
[0042] In the pretreatment of the mixture to be pretreated using ultrasound and electricity, the frequency of the ultrasound used for pretreatment is 40kHz, the power is 100W, and the treatment time is 30 minutes; the voltage intensity of the electricity used for pretreatment is 100V / m, and the treatment time is 30 minutes. The cavitation effect of the ultrasound can destroy the cell wall structure of the medicinal residue, release more degradable organic matter, and further destroy the complex structure of the medicinal residue through electrochemical action, thereby improving its degradability.
[0043] See also Figure 3 As shown, the foam iron with a porosity of 60PPI is placed in deionized water and is put into an ultrasonic oscillator for vibration, to remove surface impurities. After the concussion ends, the foam iron is taken out and placed in a drying oven for drying, ensuring that the surface is free of moisture. Appropriate deionized water is added in a beaker, and Tween-80 solution is slowly added. The solution is stirred at room temperature using a magnetic stirrer until Tween-80 is completely dissolved, forming a uniform solution, then the foam iron is placed in a concentration of 8.3g / L, a temperature of 60 DEG C of Tween-80 solution modification for 4 hours to obtain a modified product, the modified product is placed in 60 DEG C of drying ovens and dried to obtain the Tween-80 modified foam iron, dried to constant weight, to ensure the stability of the modified material, because foam iron can not produce consumption during fermentation, magnet can be used to quickly and easily recycle foam iron, the contact angle of foam iron before modification is 92.7 °, and the foam iron contact angle after modification is significantly reduced to 44.1 °, showing that Tween-80 modification enhances the hydrophilicity of foam iron.
[0044] The fermentation mixture is placed in a fermentation tank with a spatial magnetic field, the spatial magnetic field is generated by a permanent magnet, the magnetic field strength is 14.4 mT, and the spatial magnetic field strength is adjusted based on the center of the fermentation tank. During anaerobic digestion, the fermentation temperature in the fermentation tank is 35±1°C, stirring is performed once every 8 hours during the fermentation process, and the amount of Tween-80 modified foam iron added to the fermentation tank is 2.9 g / L.
