Abstract
Description
TECHNICAL FIELD
[0001] The application belongs to the technical field of organic solid waste resource processing, and particularly relates to an oxygen supply control method for aerobic fermentation of organic biomass. BACKGROUND
[0002] The aerobic fermentation compost is a mainstream technology for realizing the resource and harmless treatment of organic solid waste, and its essence relies on the metabolic activity of aerobic microorganisms under sufficient oxygen. The accuracy of oxygen supply directly determines the fermentation efficiency, energy consumption level and quality of the final product.
[0003] The current oxygen supply control of aerobic fermentation mainly relies on two types of technologies. One is to directly monitor the oxygen concentration of the pile body by using electrochemical or optical oxygen sensors. However, the working conditions of aerobic fermentation are extremely harsh, and it is long-term in a high-temperature (60-80℃) and high-humidity (>95% RH) environment, and is accompanied by high-concentration corrosive gases such as hydrogen sulfide and ammonia. In this environment, the oxygen probe generally has problems such as serious drift of the measurement signal, poisoning of the probe, and rapid reduction of the service life. Frequent calibration and replacement not only significantly increase the maintenance cost, but also lead to unreliable monitoring data, and it is impossible to use for real-time monitoring. The other is indirect calculation by gas analysis, which generally uses infrared analyzers or mass spectrometers to monitor the oxygen concentration difference between the inlet and outlet, and combines the conventional oxygen consumption rate (OUR), carbon dioxide generation rate (CER) and respiratory entropy (RQ) to calculate the oxygen consumption by mass balance. However, the equipment cost is high, the gas pretreatment (dust removal and moisture removal) requirement is extremely high, and it is difficult to carry out gas analysis in the initial stage of aerobic fermentation in order to ensure the temperature rise of the material.
[0004] Therefore, there is a lack of technical path to realize low-cost and high-robustness precise oxygen supply control. SUMMARY
[0005] To solve the above technical problems, the application discards the traditional idea of directly measuring the oxygen component, and creatively proposes a method of indirect oxygen measurement and control of ventilation volume based on multi-parameter fusion and dynamic heat balance model. The core idea of the application is to realize the accurate oxygen supply control without oxygen probe by accurately measuring the heat release of fermentation in real time and dynamically backstepping the instantaneous oxygen consumption of microorganisms, and to realize the accurate oxygen supply control without oxygen probe. At the same time, since there are many material parameters, the model error caused by time-varying drift may affect the ventilation volume, so the Kalman filter is introduced to construct the state observer, and the residual error between the real-time measurement value and the model prediction value is used to dynamically correct the key state quantity.
