Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This application relates to the field of wastewater treatment technology, and in particular to a method for dynamically regulating photocatalytic efficiency and effective biofilm growth. Background Technology
[0002] Currently, photocatalytic materials and biofilms often overlap or lack substantial contact, leading to a series of problems: reduced photocatalytic material absorption and utilization efficiency; inability to utilize oxygen transferred by MABR-modified membrane fibers to induce reactive oxygen species (ROS) generation, resulting in decreased photocatalytic efficiency; and unstable biofilm formation and activity. The inability to effectively control the ratio of biofilm-covered to photocatalytically exposed areas on the MABR-modified membrane fiber surface hinders mass transfer and causes biofilm inhibition. These problems prevent photocatalytic products from adequately nourishing the biofilm, and the biofilm itself struggles to effectively absorb photocatalytic degradation products, severely restricting photocatalytic reaction efficiency, efficient growth of microbial films on the MABR-modified membrane fiber surface, and the achievement of the goal of simultaneous and efficient removal of recalcitrant organic matter and nitrogen. Therefore, when photocatalytic oxidation is coupled in situ with MABR, there is no effective method for deep synergistic control, and there is a lack of effective regulation of the reaction interface and process.
