Description

Technical Field

[0001] This invention belongs to the field of water treatment, and in particular relates to a method for simultaneously achieving phosphorus enrichment and denitrification using carbon sources from urban sewage. Background Technology

[0002] The contradiction between resource scarcity and environmental pollution is driving the rapid development of phosphorus recovery concepts and technologies. As the primary substrate for phosphorus recovery, urban wastewater contains enough phosphorus to meet 15-20% of human phosphorus needs. Biofilm phosphorus recovery technology utilizes the phosphorus absorption and release properties of polyphosphate biofilms under alternating aerobic and anaerobic conditions to remove and enrich phosphates, resulting in a concentrated phosphorus solution. Biofilm phosphorus recovery technology avoids phosphorus loss during the recovery process, simplifies the recovery steps, and has significant advantages and development potential in urban wastewater phosphorus recovery.

[0003] However, although existing biofilm phosphorus recovery technologies can effectively remove and recover (or enrich) phosphorus in wastewater, they usually require a separate denitrification system to avoid the impact of nitrogen in wastewater on the phosphorus recovery unit, and additional carbon sources need to be added to enhance the biological phosphorus release performance to obtain a high-concentration phosphorus-rich solution.

[0077] The method for simultaneously achieving phosphorus enrichment and denitrification using urban sewage carbon sources differs from Example 2 in that: the urban sewage has a COD of 160 mg / L, NH3-N of 30 mg / L, TP of 5 mg / L, and a temperature of 28.9℃; the volume ratio of the recovered liquid returned to the biofilm reactor in the previous operation cycle step f) to the sewage entering the biofilm reactor in the next operation cycle step a) is 1:1; the anaerobic stirring time in step b) is 2 h; and the aerobic aeration treatment time in step d) is 2 h.

[0078] In this embodiment, after completing 90 operation cycles of steps a) to f), water quality testing was performed, and the results are shown in Table 3:

[0079] Table 3 Water quality testing data from Example 4

[0080] project COD mg / L <![CDATA[NH3-Nmg / L]]> TP mg / L TN mg / L Influent to biofilm reactor 160 30 5 30 Effluent from aerobic aeration treatment <20 - <0.5 <5 Recovery tank solution (phosphorus recovery solution) - - >70 -

[0081] As can be seen from the data in Table 3, after the wastewater passes through the biofilm reactor, the aerobic effluent meets the Class I standard requirements of GB18918-2002 "Discharge Standard of Pollutants for Urban Wastewater Treatment Plants", and the phosphorus concentration in the recovery tank is >70mg / L, which can meet the requirements of current phosphorus product processing technology.

[0082] The above description is only a preferred embodiment of the present invention. It should be noted that for those skilled in the art, several improvements and modifications can be made without departing from the principle of the present invention, and these improvements and modifications should also be considered within the scope of protection of the present invention.
