Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This invention relates to the field of biogas slurry treatment and resource regeneration technology, and in particular to a Fe3O4@NH2-Zn-MOFs adsorption method and apparatus for recovering phosphorus from biogas slurry pretreated with persulfate. Background Technology
[0002] In recent years, the number and scale of wastewater treatment plants have been continuously expanding. During the wastewater treatment process, a large amount of sludge is generated. Sludge contains a large amount of organic matter, nitrogen, phosphorus, and other nutrients. Improper treatment not only wastes resources but also causes serious environmental pollution. Phosphorus resources are particularly precious and have become a significant issue facing China and the world.
[0003] Phosphorus is an essential element for the growth of living organisms and is widely used in agriculture, chemical industry, food, and other fields. However, the Earth's phosphorus resources are limited and unevenly distributed. China has large reserves of phosphate rock, but the grade is low, and the environmental pollution caused by mining and utilization is serious. In addition, the large-scale mining and use of phosphorus resources has led to a continuous decline in the grade of phosphate rock and an accelerated rate of resource depletion. Therefore, finding an efficient and environmentally friendly method for the recovery and utilization of phosphorus resources has become an urgent task.
[0004] Sludge is rich in phosphorus; statistics show that over 90% of phosphorus is transferred to sludge during wastewater treatment. Anaerobic digestion, as a mature sludge treatment technology, has advantages such as low energy consumption and high treatment efficiency, and has become one of the main methods for sludge treatment. However, during anaerobic digestion, phosphorus in sludge is mainly released into the biogas slurry in dissolved form. Therefore, how to efficiently separate and recover phosphorus from biogas slurry has become a research hotspot in the field of sludge treatment. In addition, in recent years, persulfate-based anaerobic digestion technology has attracted much attention in the field of environmental engineering. This technology utilizes the strong oxidizing properties of persulfate to effectively improve sludge treatment and increase anaerobic digestion efficiency, showing great potential in promoting sludge reduction and resource utilization.
[0005] Currently, researchers have conducted extensive studies on phosphorus recovery from biogas slurry, primarily employing methods such as chemical precipitation, adsorption-desorption, membrane separation, and ion exchange. Among these, chemical precipitation is simple to operate but consumes large amounts of reagents, produces significant amounts of sludge, and has a low phosphorus recovery rate. Membrane separation offers good recovery, but membrane materials are expensive, prone to fouling, and have high operation and maintenance costs. Ion exchange has a high phosphorus recovery rate, but ion exchange resin regeneration is difficult, resulting in high operating costs. Adsorption-desorption, as a novel phosphorus recovery technology, offers advantages such as ease of operation, large adsorption capacity, and low operating costs, and is gradually attracting researchers' attention. The adsorbent is crucial in adsorption-desorption methods, with activated carbon, biomass materials, and mineral materials being among the most studied adsorbents. These adsorbents exhibit high adsorption capacity for phosphorus in biogas slurry and demonstrate good stability and reusability. However, achieving more efficient adsorption remains a critical technical challenge. Summary of the Invention

[0020] The second objective of this invention is to provide a Fe3O4@NH2-Zn-MOFs adsorption device for realizing the Fe3O4@NH2-Zn-MOFs adsorption method for recovering phosphorus from biogas slurry pretreated with persulfate. The Fe3O4@NH2-Zn-MOFs adsorption device includes a first aerogel adsorption column, a second aerogel adsorption column, and a crystallizer. The first and second aerogel adsorption columns are respectively connected to the crystallizer via pipes.

[0030] Furthermore, a ninth valve is provided on the pipe between the outlet of the second aerogel adsorption column and the inlet of the crystallizer.
[0031] Furthermore, during the initial feeding, the first valve is closed, the second and third valves are open, and the remaining valves (the fourth, fifth, sixth, seventh, eighth, and ninth valves) are closed. The biogas slurry pretreated with persulfate enters the anaerobic digester through the first aerogel adsorption column.

The purity of the high-purity battery-grade FePO4 can reach 90-98%.
[0035] The method of the present invention specifically includes the following steps: 1. An amino-modified MOF material was introduced, and an NH₂-Zn-MOF composite material was prepared using a solvothermal method. Zinc nitrate hexahydrate (Zn(NO₃)₂·6H₂O) was accurately weighed and dissolved in deionized water. Separately, 5-aminoisophthalic acid was weighed and dissolved in a 7:3 volume ratio of ethanol and N,N-dimethylformamide (DMF). The mixture was stirred for 30–60 minutes until the solution changed from colorless to pale yellow, yielding mixed solution A. Then, o-phenylenediamine was weighed and dissolved in a 7:3 volume ratio of ethanol and DMF. This was added to mixed solution A, and the mixture was stirred for 20 minutes until a pale yellow suspension formed. This suspension was sealed in a 100 mL reactor and heated to 80–120 °C for 30–42 hours. After cooling to room temperature, the mixture was washed three times with DMF and ethanol, and then dried overnight in a vacuum drying oven at 50–70 °C to obtain a pale yellow powder, NH₂-Zn-MOFs. Amino functional groups can provide additional adsorption sites, which can interact with phosphorus compounds through electrostatic interactions, coordination interactions, or the formation of hydrogen bonds, thus helping to improve the material's ability to adsorb phosphorus.
[0036] 2. Magnetic adsorbent Fe3O4@NH2-Zn-MOFs was prepared using an intercalation method. Deionized water was pretreated with nitrogen for 20-40 minutes to remove dissolved oxygen. Then, NH2-Zn-MOFs powder was weighed and added to the pretreated water, followed by ultrasonic treatment for 10-30 minutes to ensure thorough dispersion. Next, 25-35% ammonia solution was slowly added, and FeCl3·6H2O and FeCl2·4H2O were added sequentially under continuous mechanical stirring and nitrogen protection. The mixed solution was stirred in a water bath at 55-75℃ for 1-3 hours to promote the formation of Fe3O4 nanoparticles on the surface of NH2-Zn-MOFs. After the reaction was complete, the Fe3O4@NH2-Zn-MOFs composite material was purified by separation using an external magnetic field and washed multiple times with deionized water until the pH of the washing solution reached neutral. Finally, the product was dried overnight in a vacuum drying oven at 60 °C to obtain black powder Fe3O4@NH2-Zn-MOFs.
[0037] 3. Preparation of Fe3O4@NH2-Zn-MOFs aerogel adsorption column. Chitosan CS was dissolved in (1% v / v) formic acid aqueous solution to obtain a 1% (w / v) CS solution. Fe3O4@NH2-Zn-MOFs powder was added to the 1% (w / v) CS solution (Fe3O4@NH2-Zn-MOFs:CS = 1:1 (w / w)) and dispersed into an emulsion to obtain a mixed emulsion. Then, 2% (w / w) glutaraldehyde (mixed emulsion:glutaraldehyde = 1:4 (v / v)) was added to participate in the crosslinking reaction (the crosslinking reaction was carried out at 25-30℃ for 2-4 h, with thorough stirring to ensure complete condensation reaction between chitosan and glutaraldehyde). The Fe3O4@NH2-Zn-MOFs hydrogel prepared by the above process was immersed in (1% v / v) formic acid aqueous solution for 1-5 h and then freeze-dried under vacuum for 36-72 h. Then, the column was washed with deionized water to obtain Fe3O4@NH2-Zn-MOFs aerogel adsorption column.
[0038] 4. Construct a Fe3O4@NH2-Zn-MOFs adsorption device (Fe3O4@NH2-Zn-MOFs adsorption unit) for phosphorus recovery from persulfate pretreated biogas slurry. The adsorption process device consists of three parts: a first aerogel adsorption column, a second aerogel adsorption column, and a crystallizer. During initial feeding, the first valve is closed, the second and third valves are open, and the remaining valves are closed. The biogas slurry after solid-liquid separation passes through the first aerogel adsorption column. The Fe3O4@NH2-Zn-MOFs in the first aerogel adsorption column, through the interaction between Fe(II)-O-Zn(II), makes it easier for Fe(II) in the Fe3O4@NH2-Zn-MOFs to lose electrons, thereby activating the persulfate, increasing the ability to generate ROS, and enhancing phosphorus release. After feeding, the first valve is opened, allowing the material to circulate through the first aerogel adsorption column while undergoing anaerobic digestion, activating the persulfate and adsorbing PO4. 3- When adsorption approaches saturation, the second and third valves close, while the fourth and fifth valves open, allowing the biogas slurry to enter the second aerogel adsorption column for adsorption. Simultaneously, the sixth and seventh valves open, adding sulfuric acid to the first aerogel adsorption column for elution. The resulting high-concentration phosphate leachate crystallizes in the crystallization section. This crystallization is controlled by adjusting the pH and supplementing Fe. 3+ FePO4 crystals are recovered from high-concentration phosphate leachate. When the second aerogel adsorption column is near saturation, the fourth, fifth, sixth, and seventh valves are closed, while the second, third, eighth, and ninth valves are opened. The first aerogel adsorption column is used for adsorption, and the second aerogel adsorption column is used for elution. This alternating use allows for simultaneous adsorption and crystallization, improving the overall recovery efficiency.
[0039] Furthermore, the pH value can be precisely adjusted by adding NaOH solution or dilute hydrochloric acid to maintain the system at pH 6.0-7.5.
[0040] Furthermore, when Fe in the system 3+ When the concentration decreases, it is restored by adding ferric sulfate (Fe2(SO4)3) solution to ensure the supply of metal ions required for the subsequent FePO4 crystallization reaction.
[0041] Compared with the prior art, the present invention has the following beneficial effects: 1. The Fe3O4@NH2-Zn-MOFs adsorption method for recovering phosphorus from persulfate-pretreated biogas slurry provided by this invention is a Fe3O4@NH2-Zn-MOFs adsorption process for recovering phosphorus from persulfate-pretreated biogas slurry. The MOFs material Fe3O4@NH2-Zn-MOFs introduced with amino functional groups provides additional adsorption sites for the adsorbent, significantly improving the material's adsorption capacity for phosphorus. The biogas slurry is discharged after anaerobic digestion of sludge pretreated with persulfate. The interaction between persulfate and Fe3O4 makes it easier for Fe(II) in Fe3O4@NH2-Zn-MOFs to lose electrons, activating the persulfate and generating more reactive oxygen species (ROS), further enhancing phosphorus release and thus improving the adsorption and recovery rate of phosphorus by the adsorbent. This can be achieved by adjusting the pH value and supplementing Fe. 3+ High-purity FePO4 crystals can be recovered from high-concentration phosphate leachate, enabling the effective utilization of phosphorus resources.
[0042] 2. The Fe3O4@NH2-Zn-MOFs adsorption method and apparatus for recovering phosphorus from biogas slurry pretreated with persulfate provided by the present invention can simultaneously perform phosphorus adsorption and desorption crystallization by valve regulation, thereby improving the overall recovery efficiency, reducing equipment investment and operating costs, and facilitating the large-scale and industrialized recovery of phosphorus resources.

[0054] Example 1 This embodiment provides a Fe3O4@NH2-Zn-MOFs adsorption method for recovering phosphorus from persulfate pretreated biogas slurry, comprising the following steps: Accurately weigh 0.375 g of zinc nitrate hexahydrate (Zn(NO3)2·6H2O) and dissolve it in 15 mL of deionized water.

[0069] The biogas slurry after persulfate pretreatment is subjected to solid-liquid separation to obtain solid biogas residue and solid-liquid separated biogas slurry. The solid biogas residue is sent to anaerobic digester 4, while the solid-liquid separated biogas slurry enters the first aerogel adsorption column 1 for adsorption.
[0070] Initial feed: Valve 5-1 is closed, valves 5-2 and 5-3 are open, and the remaining valves are closed. The persulfate-pretreated biogas slurry passes through the first aerogel adsorption column 1. The Fe3O4@NH2-Zn-MOFs in the first aerogel adsorption column 1 activate the persulfate PS through the interaction between Fe(II)-O-Zn(II), increasing the ability to generate ROS and enhancing phosphorus release. Circulating adsorption: After feeding, valve 5-1 is opened. The biogas slurry after solid-liquid separation circulates through the first aerogel adsorption column 1 while undergoing anaerobic digestion, activating the persulfate PS and adsorbing PO4. 3- Adsorption saturation treatment: When the first aerogel adsorption column 1 is close to saturation, the second valve 5-2 and the third valve 5-3 are closed, and the fourth valve 5-4 and the fifth valve 5-5 are opened. The biogas slurry after solid-liquid separation enters the second aerogel adsorption column 2 for adsorption. Elution and crystallization: The sixth valve 5-6 and the seventh valve 5-7 are opened, and sulfuric acid is added to the first aerogel adsorption column 1 for elution. The high-concentration phosphate leachate eluted from the column crystallizes in the crystallization section. The pH value is adjusted and Fe is added. 3+ FePO4 crystals are recovered from high-concentration phosphate leachate. Alternating use: When the second aerogel adsorption column 2 is near saturation, the fourth valve 5-4, fifth valve 5-5, sixth valve 5-6, and seventh valve 5-7 are closed, while the second valve 5-2, third valve 5-3, eighth valve 5-8, and ninth valve 5-9 are opened. The first aerogel adsorption column 1 is used for adsorption, and the second aerogel adsorption column 2 is used for elution. This alternating use allows for simultaneous adsorption and crystallization, improving overall recovery efficiency. The recovered high-purity FePO4 can reach 90% purity.
[0071] The pH value can be precisely adjusted by adding NaOH solution or dilute hydrochloric acid (HCl) to maintain the system at pH 6.0-7.5.
[0072] When Fe in the system 3+ When the concentration decreases, it is restored by adding ferric sulfate (Fe2(SO4)3) solution to ensure the supply of metal ions required for the subsequent FePO4 crystallization reaction.
[0073] The Fe3O4@NH2-Zn-MOFs used in this process introduce amino functional groups, providing additional adsorption sites and significantly improving the material's phosphorus adsorption capacity. Fe3O4 interacts with persulfate, activating it and generating more reactive oxygen species (ROS), further enhancing phosphorus release. Valve control allows for simultaneous adsorption and desorption crystallization, improving overall recovery efficiency and reducing equipment investment and operating costs. Adjusting the pH and supplementing Fe... 3+ High-purity FePO4 crystals can be recovered from high-concentration phosphate leachate, thus achieving effective utilization of phosphorus resources.
