Description

Technical Field

[0001] This invention relates to the field of mining wastewater treatment technology, and in particular to a cyanide-reducing biosorbent, its preparation method, and its application. Background Technology

[0002] Cyanide-containing wastewater is a byproduct of metal beneficiation and refining processes. Its greatest hazard lies in the residual cyanide and heavy metal complex ions, which can generate highly toxic cyanide ions (CN). - Cyanide residues mainly consist of three categories: firstly, free cyanide, i.e., CN2, hydrogen cyanide ... - The first category is HCN; the second is simple cyanides, which are cyanides that can be dissociated by weak acids; the third category is complex and stable cyanides, namely complex alkali metal-metal cyanides.

[0003] Currently, the main technologies for treating cyanide-containing wastewater both domestically and internationally include: chemical oxidation, physical adsorption, electrochemical methods, natural degradation, and microbial methods. Natural degradation converts cyanide into less toxic cyanate through natural volatilization, hydrolysis, and photodegradation and dissociation by sunlight. This method is low-cost and does not produce toxic byproducts, but its treatment efficiency is low and requires sufficient retention time. Chemical oxidation methods mainly include hydrogen peroxide, basic chlorination, and acidification recovery. This technology is relatively mature, with fast reaction speeds and short process cycles, but the large consumption of reagents increases costs, and residual chlorine in the treated wastewater can pose a threat to aquatic organisms. Physical adsorption methods mainly include ion exchange, activated carbon adsorption, and air flotation. These methods are technologically mature, simple to operate, and allow for the reuse of recovered cyanide and heavy metals. However, a drawback is that the integrated equipment cannot be reused, easily causing secondary pollution. Electrochemical methods can treat toxic, harmful, and recalcitrant mining wastewater through electrocatalytic oxidation, electrocoagulation, electroadsorption, and electroosmosis. They offer advantages such as simple operation and small equipment size. However, they can easily increase the heavy metal load in the wastewater, have low reactor efficiency, suffer from severe electrode wear, and have high energy consumption. Microbial methods involve adding microbial agents to the water treatment equipment. The combined use of microbial agents has lower requirements for the aquatic environment, a wider range of applications, better economic benefits, and advantages such as simple process for recovering elemental substances from the water, high removal efficiency, environmental friendliness, and no secondary pollution.

[0004] This invention aims to develop a novel composite biosorbent to improve the treatment efficiency of complex cyanide-containing wastewater. Summary of the Invention

[0036] Example 1

[0037] 1. Strains Isolation

[0038] This invention uses a cyanide screening medium to isolate a bacterium with cyanide tolerance and degradation activity from activated sludge in a municipal wastewater treatment plant, named SH-5.

[0039] Screening medium formulation (g / L): Agar 20.0 g / L, Ammonium sulfate 0.4 g / L, Sodium chloride 0.1 g / L, Potassium dihydrogen phosphate 0.4 g / L, Glucose 0.04 g / L, Yeast extract 1.0 g / L, with the addition of mining wastewater (CN... - (Concentration 10~50 mg / L).

[0040] 2. Strain identification

[0041] (1) Morphological identification

[0042] Single colonies of strain SH-5 were picked and inoculated onto nutrient agar medium, placed in a constant temperature incubator at 30 ℃, and incubated for 24 h. The colony morphology of the strain was then observed. Figure 1 As shown, the colonies are pale yellow, translucent, flat, and moist.

[0043] (2) Physiological and biochemical identification

[0044] Strain SH-5 stains purple with Gram stain, indicating it is a Gram-negative bacterium with a short rod-like morphology. Figure 2 ).

[0045] (3) Molecular biological identification

[0046] The genome of strain SH-5 was extracted and its 16S rDNA was prepared for PCR amplification. Universal primers were used: forward primer fd1 (27F): 5'-AGAGTTTGATCCTGGCTCAC-3' (SEQ ID NO.1); reverse primer rp2 (1492R): 5'-ACGGCTCCTTGTTACGCTT-3' (SEQ ID NO.2).

[0047] The PCR reaction system consisted of (25 μL): 2 μL genomic DNA (80-100 ng), 1 μL forward primer fd1 (10 pmol), 1 μL reverse primer rp2 (10 pmol), 2.5 μL 10× buffer, 1.5 μL 1.5 mmol / L MgCl2, 2.0 μL 2.5 mmol / L Taq DNAase, and ddH2O to a final volume of 25 μL.

[0048] PCR reaction conditions were as follows: 95℃ pre-denaturation for 4 min; 94℃ denaturation for 1 min, 48℃ annealing for 1 min, 72℃ extension for 1 min, 35 cycles; 72℃ for 10 min, and storage at 4℃. Detection was performed by 2% agarose gel electrophoresis.

[0049] The results are as follows Figure 3 This indicates that the 16S rDNA band of strain SH-5 is between 1000 bp and 2000 bp.

[0050] The PCR products were purified and recovered using the UNIQ-10 column DNA gel extraction kit (Shanghai Sangon Biotech) and sent to Suzhou Genewiz Biotechnology Co., Ltd. for sequencing. The sequencing results are shown in SEQ ID NO.3.

[0051]

[0052] The sequences obtained after sequencing strain SH-5 were compared with those obtained in NCBI using BLAST software for similarity search. Multiple sequence alignment analysis was performed using Clustal X software. A phylogenetic tree was constructed using the NJ method with MEGA 7.0 software to determine the taxonomic position of the bacteria.

[0053] like Figure 4 As shown, strain SH-5 (marked with black dots in the figure) and Paenibacillus sp. strain 83O (accession number PP259472.1) form a highly supported clade (100% support), indicating a very high evolutionary correlation between the two. Further analysis revealed that the phylogenetic cluster to which this clade belongs also includes several other species such as Paenibacillus lautus (NR_112724.1), Paenibacillus solani (NR_152686.1), and Paenibacillus purispatii (NR_116496.1), with high support rates (91% and 84%, respectively), indicating that SH-5 stably belongs to the genus Paenibacillus. As an outgroup, Priestia aryabhattai (NR_115953.1) is placed separately at the bottom of the tree, supporting the overall root orientation of the phylogenetic tree and validating the rationality of the phylogenetic relationships within the genus Paenibacillus.

[0054] In summary, the identification results show that strain SH-5 belongs to Paenibacillus sp.

[0055] 3. Preservation of microbial strains

[0056] Paenibacillus sp. SH-5 was deposited on May 14, 2025, at the China General Microbiological Culture Collection Center (CGMCC), located at No. 3, Courtyard 1, Beichen West Road, Chaoyang District, Beijing, with accession number CGMCC No. 34545.

[0057] Example 2

[0058] 1. Preparation of fermentation broth

[0059] Single colonies of strain SH-5 were picked from the solid culture medium and inoculated into the fermentation medium. Fermentation was carried out in a constant temperature shaking incubator to obtain the fermentation broth. Fermentation conditions: temperature 30 ℃, shaking speed 160 rpm, overnight incubation, OD obtained. 600 The fermentation broth is 0.5.

[0060] Fermentation medium formulation: 10 g / L tryptone, 5 g / L yeast extract, 10 g / L sodium chloride, pH 7.0.

[0061] 2. Preparation of cyanide-containing wastewater:

[0062] The high-cyanide wastewater was allowed to stand, and the supernatant was taken and diluted with tap water to obtain cyanide-containing wastewater with a total cyanide content of 100 mg / L.

[0063] 3. Add the fermentation broth obtained in step 1 to 100 mL of cyanide-containing wastewater with a total cyanide content of 100 mg / L at a dosage of 10 mL / L. Place the mixture in a constant temperature shaker and react for 120 h at 25 ℃ and 150 rpm. Take samples every 24 h, and perform 3 parallel tests for each time gradient. Take the average value of the results.

[0064] The method for determining cyanide is as follows:

[0065] The Hach reagent kit was used for total cyanide analysis in water quality. The sensitivity was 0.002 mg / L, the limit of detection was 0.002 mg / L, and the upper limit of detection was 0.240 mg / L. Distilled water was used to dilute the samples to the detection range before testing.

[0066] The experimental results are shown in Table 1 and Figure 5 As shown, when the fermentation broth of cyanide-reducing strain SH-5 is added at a concentration of 10 mL / L, the CN content in the cyanide-containing wastewater decreases. - At a concentration of 100 mg / L, the cyanide-reducing biosorbent has a certain effect on CN. - The removal rate increased with the increase of treatment time, reaching 19.74% at 24 h, 34.01% at 72 h, and the degradation rate tended to reach equilibrium after 96 h.

[0069] Example 3

[0070] 1. Preparation of fermentation broth

[0071] Single colonies of strain SH-5 were picked from the solid culture medium and inoculated into the fermentation medium. Fermentation was carried out in a constant temperature shaking incubator to obtain the fermentation broth. Fermentation conditions: temperature 30 ℃, shaking speed 160 rpm, overnight incubation, OD obtained. 600 The fermentation broth is 0.5.

[0072] Fermentation medium formulation: 10 g / L tryptone, 5 g / L yeast extract, 10 g / L sodium chloride, pH 7.0.

[0073] 2. Preparation of bacterial suspension

[0074] The fermentation broth was centrifuged at high speed (8000 rpm to 10000 rpm for 6 to 10 minutes), and the supernatant was discarded to obtain bacterial cells. The bacterial cells were resuspended in sterile physiological saline, centrifuged, and the process of washing away residual culture medium from the bacterial cells was repeated three times. The bacterial cells were then resuspended in sterile distilled water to obtain a bacterial suspension. OD 600 It is 1.5.

[0075] 3. Strain fixation

[0076] Immobilization carrier: Commercially available sodium-based bentonite with a purity of 99% and particle sizes of D90 29.9 μm and D50 10.72 μm.

[0077] Sodium-based bentonite was added to the bacterial suspension at a mass ratio of 21:1. The mixture was placed in a constant-temperature shaker at 150 rpm and 25°C for 30 min. After mixing, the mixture was placed in a 4°C refrigerator for 24 h to immobilize the bacterial strain SH-5 onto the sodium-based bentonite carrier, thus obtaining an immobilized biosorbent mixture.

[0078] The immobilized biosorbent mixture was mixed with a freeze-drying protectant (trehalose, skim milk, and glycerol) in a mass ratio of 1:0.12:0.12:0.03. The mixture was then freeze-dried, ground, and sieved (using a 200-mesh sieve) to obtain the final cyanide-reducing biosorbent.

[0079] Comparative Example 1

[0080] Sodium-based bentonite was added to sterile water at a mass ratio of 21:1. The mixture was placed in a constant-temperature vibrator at 150 rpm and 25°C for 30 min. After mixing, the mixture was placed in a 4°C refrigerator for 24 h to obtain a sodium-based bentonite-water mixture.

[0081] Sodium-based bentonite-water mixture: trehalose: skim milk: glycerin = 1:0.12:0.12:0.03 was mixed evenly with freeze-drying protectant (trehalose, skim milk and glycerin), and then freeze-dried, ground and sieved (200 mesh sieve) to obtain sodium-based bentonite adsorbent.

[0082] The high-cyanide wastewater involved in the following examples is mining wastewater from a gold ore beneficiation plant in Guangxi Zhuang Autonomous Region. This wastewater contains cyanide or cyanide-like ions and heavy metals. The total cyanide concentration in the wastewater was tested to be 5100 mg / L.

[0083] The method for determining cyanide is as follows:

[0084] The Hach reagent kit was used for total cyanide analysis in water quality. The sensitivity was 0.002 mg / L, the limit of detection was 0.002 mg / L, and the upper limit of detection was 0.240 mg / L. Distilled water was used to dilute the samples to the detection range before testing.

[0088] 2. The cyanide-reducing biosorbent was added to 100 mL of cyanide-containing wastewater at a dosage of 1.5 g / L. The mixture was placed in a constant-temperature shaker and reacted at 25 ℃ and 150 rpm for 120 h. Samples were taken every 24 h, and three replicates were performed for each time gradient. The average value of the results was taken. A control group was also set up, in which the cyanide-reducing biosorbent in Example 3 was replaced with the sodium-based bentonite adsorbent prepared in Comparative Example 1.

[0089] 3. Centrifuge the obtained sample at 80,000 rpm for 10 min, collect the supernatant, and determine the cyanide content.

[0090] The experimental results are shown in Table 2 and Figure 6 As shown, when the dosage of the cyanide-reducing biosorbent is 1.5 g / L, the CN content in the cyanide-containing wastewater... - At a concentration of 100 mg / L, the cyanide-reducing biosorbent has a certain effect on CN. - The removal rate increased with increasing treatment time, reaching 30.28% after 24 hours and 69.47% after 72 hours, after which the degradation rate tended to reach equilibrium. In the comparative experiment, when the dosage of sodium-based bentonite adsorbent was 1.5 g / L, the CN content in the cyanide-containing wastewater decreased. - When the concentration was 100 mg / L, the removal rate was 21.35% after 24 hours and 22.03% after 120 hours. The removal rate was relatively stable, indicating that the removal effect of sodium-based bentonite adsorbent had reached saturation within 24 hours.

[0093] Example 5

[0094] Tests on the removal efficiency of the cyanide-reducing biosorbent (prepared in Example 3) for different cyanide concentrations:

[0095] 1. Preparation of diluents for different concentrations of mineral water: The high-cyanide wastewater was allowed to stand. The supernatant was then taken and diluted with tap water according to the required concentration. After dilution, the total cyanide content was measured at 10 mg / L, 20 mg / L, 40 mg / L, 60 mg / L, 80 mg / L, 100 mg / L, 120 mg / L, and 150 mg / L, with 100 mL of each solution.

[0100]

[0101] Example 6

[0102] The cyanide removal efficiency of the cyanide-reducing biosorbent (prepared in Example 3) was tested using a laboratory simulation apparatus. The experimental setup consisted of an open container measuring 32 cm long, 28.5 cm wide, and 30 cm high, into which cyanide-containing wastewater was added. A vent pipe was placed in the cyanide-containing wastewater at a depth of 0.2 m. 3 Ventilation is performed at a ventilation rate of / h.

[0106] Table 4. Results of cyanide removal efficiency tests using a laboratory simulation apparatus on the cyanide-reducing biosorbent.

[0107]

[0108] From Table 4 and Figure 8 The results show that in CN - The concentration was 100 mg / L, the dosage of the cyanide-reducing biosorbent was 1.2 g / L, and the ventilation rate was 0.2 m³ / L. 3 Under conditions of [temperature range missing] / h, the cyanide degradation rate increased with increasing treatment time. The cyanide-reducing biosorbent achieved a removal rate of 37.52% after 24 h and reached 71.28% after 72 h. The simulated device removed CN [missing information]. - The results were better than those of the shake-flask experiment, which may be due to the device being placed at 0.2 m. 3 Under a ventilation rate of / h, dissolved oxygen in cyanide-containing wastewater can be better increased, which helps the cyanide-reducing biosorbent to exert its adsorption effect.
