Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This invention relates to the field of wastewater treatment technology, specifically to a slow-release carbon source based on wet waste and its preparation method. Background Technology
[0002] With the acceleration of urbanization and the improvement of living standards in my country, the pressure on urban wastewater treatment plants to remove nitrogen and phosphorus pollutants is becoming increasingly prominent. Biological nitrogen and phosphorus removal is a core process in wastewater treatment, and its efficiency directly depends on the sufficiency of carbon sources and functional microorganisms such as denitrifying bacteria and polyphosphate-accumulating bacteria within the system. These microorganisms require carbon sources as energy carriers to complete metabolic processes such as nitrate reduction. However, most urban wastewater in my country suffers from a "low carbon-to-nitrogen ratio," and insufficient natural carbon sources lead to incomplete denitrification, resulting in excessive total nitrogen (TN) concentrations in the effluent, which has become a key bottleneck restricting wastewater treatment plants from achieving emission standards.
[0003] To address these issues, the industry widely adopts the technical approach of adding external carbon sources. Existing external carbon sources are mainly divided into two categories: First, traditional liquid carbon sources, including methanol, sodium acetate, and glucose. While these sources can be rapidly utilized by microorganisms, they have significant drawbacks, such as easy loss with water flow after addition, requiring continuous adjustment of the dosage to maintain carbon source concentration. Excessive addition can easily cause secondary pollution and increase the chemical oxygen demand (COD) load of the effluent. Second, solid slow-release carbon sources, such as natural cellulose materials and synthetic polymers. While natural materials are inexpensive, the carbon source release rate is difficult to control, easily resulting in excessively rapid release in the early stages and insufficient release in the later stages. Their poor mechanical strength also makes them prone to disintegration and loss in water. Although synthetic polymers have stable slow-release performance, they often rely on fossil raw materials, resulting in high costs and poor biodegradability, potentially leading to secondary pollution with long-term use.
[0004] In recent years, although some studies have attempted to use wet waste hydrolysate directly as a carbon source for wastewater treatment, the core problem of uncontrolled carbon source release rate has not been solved. For example, the small molecule carbon source produced by wet waste hydrolysis is prone to rapid dissolution, resulting in low carbon source utilization. At the same time, impurities such as large particulate organic matter and metal ions contained in the hydrolysate can affect the metabolic activity of microorganisms and even clog wastewater treatment equipment. Problems such as low purity of effective carbon source, poor slow-release performance, and insufficient mechanical strength make it difficult to meet the needs of long-term stable operation of wastewater treatment plants.
[0005] Therefore, developing a highly efficient slow-release carbon source based on wet waste has become an urgent need in the field of wastewater treatment. Summary of the Invention

The added ions further activate the hydrolytic enzymes, promoting VFA production. The concentration of the added ions is designed to be within an appropriate range, achieving high VFA production while avoiding impact on microbial activity. A multi-stage purification process is then performed, including lime + polyacrylamide flocculation for impurity removal, sodium citrate chelation, and citric acid adjustment of the liquid carbon source pH to ensure that subsequent liquid carbon sources avoid the aforementioned added ion Ca. 2+ Fe 3+ The residue caused by sodium alginate pre-crosslinking improves the encapsulation rate;
[0026] 2. Embedded particles loaded with liquid carbon source are inserted into polyvinyl alcohol / sodium alginate gel and subjected to bidirectional freezing to form oriented channels inside the gel. Compared with random pores generated without orientation, this effectively achieves controllable slow release of carbon source. In addition, water-soluble polymers, including konjac glucomannan and waterborne polyurethane, are introduced into the polyvinyl alcohol / sodium alginate hydrogel at a mass ratio of (0.5~2):1. Konjac glucomannan, as a natural polysaccharide, can provide additional sustained-release effect and has good biocompatibility, but it is highly hydrophilic and easily swells. Waterborne polyurethane, through the hydrophobic segments of polyester and the hydrophilic segments of L-arginine, effectively improves the swelling disadvantage of PVA / sodium alginate gel, achieving a moderately hydrophilic effect, thereby improving the durability of the material in wastewater treatment.

After culturing for 24 h, separate the hydrolysis and acidification liquid to obtain a liquid carbon source; the mass ratio of wet waste, deionized water and compound enzyme agent is 1:3:0.2.
[0063] Step 2: Polyvinyl alcohol and sodium alginate were placed in deionized water, heated to 95°C and stirred for 2 hours, then cooled to obtain a polyvinyl alcohol-sodium alginate solution, wherein the mass fraction of polyvinyl alcohol was 12% and the mass fraction of sodium alginate was 2.0%. A liquid carbon source was added and stirred for 5 minutes, then added dropwise to a 2% calcium chloride-saturated boric acid solution. After stirring for 3 hours, the mixture was centrifuged and washed to obtain the encapsulated particles; the volume ratio of the liquid carbon source to the polyvinyl alcohol-sodium alginate solution was 1:22.
[0064] Step 3: By weight, take 1.5 parts of polyester diol and 0.3 parts of isophorone diisocyanate, add 0.02 parts of stannous octoate and heat to 85°C. After reacting for 2 hours under a nitrogen atmosphere, add 0.2 parts of dimethylolpropionic acid and 1.0 parts of acetone and stir for 2 hours. Then, cool to 45°C, add 0.01 parts of trimethylolpropane and continue stirring for 1 hour. Add 0.10 parts of triethylamine and react for 40 minutes. Dissolve 0.02 parts of L-arginine in 5 parts of deionized water and place it in the above polyurethane solution. Stir at 1000 r / min for 30 minutes.

The water-based polymer is composed of konjac glucomannan and water-based polyurethane in a mass ratio of 1:1.
[0066] Testing and Experiment
[0067] 1. Slow-release performance: Add 5g of the slow-release carbon source prepared in Examples 1-3 and Comparative Examples 1-4 to 100mL of pure water, place it in a shaker at 100rpm, and take 1mL samples at 1h, 3h, 6h, 12h and 24h respectively. Using the permanganate index as the test index, the time to release half of the carbon source is calculated by fitting the data, and the data are recorded in Table 1.
[0068] 2. Static denitrification test: 50 mL of acclimated sludge (acclimated using simulated water with C:N=3) was placed in 250 mL of simulated wastewater, and 5 g of the slow-release carbon source prepared in Examples 1-3 and Comparative Examples 1-4 was added. After shaking on a shaker for 36 h, samples were taken at a speed of 100 r / min to test NO3. - -N removal rate; wherein the simulated wastewater uses potassium nitrate as the nitrogen source, and the mass concentration of potassium nitrate in the influent is controlled at 35 mg / L.

[0070]
[0071] Conclusions: The above experiments show that Example 1 achieved better sustained-release and denitrification performance than Examples 2 and 3. Comparative Example 1, as a control experiment of Example 1, did not add compound enzyme agent. Although the sustained-release time was longer due to the large number of macromolecules in its liquid carbon source, the low effective carbon source led to a decrease in the denitrification rate, resulting in a significant decrease in the removal rate. Comparative Example 2, as a control experiment of Example 1, replaced the waterborne polyurethane with commercial waterborne polyurethane and did not add konjac glucomannan. The sustained-release performance decreased, and the accelerated release led to a lower overall carbon source utilization rate and a decrease in the removal rate. Comparative Example 3, as a control experiment of Example 1, replaced the two-way freeze-thaw cycle with ordinary freeze-thaw, resulting in disordered pores, decreased sustained-release performance, and decreased denitrification performance. Comparative Example 4, as a control experiment of Example 1, did not add external ions during hydrolysis acidification, nor did it include subsequent lime and flocculation purification. This resulted in more impurities in the liquid carbon source, which greatly affected subsequent gelation and significantly reduced denitrification performance.
