AI Technical Summary

Technical Problem

Existing biofloc technology has low nitrogen removal efficiency, high carbon source consumption, high operating costs, and risks of secondary pollution under low-carbon conditions, and lacks precise control methods.

Method used

By utilizing the exogenous signaling molecule N-octanoyl-L-homoserine lactone (C8-HSL), the quorum sensing system of microorganisms in bioflocs was regulated under low-carbon conditions. The denitrification efficiency was enhanced by adding C8-HSL signaling molecules without relying on a high carbon-nitrogen ratio, thus constructing a low-carbon biofloc reaction system.

Abstract

The application discloses a method for strengthening the denitrification efficiency of biological floc in low-carbon aquaculture tail water by using C8-HSL, which comprises the following steps: constructing a low-carbon biological floc reaction system, inoculating the biological floc and injecting the aquaculture tail water to be treated into the system, and controlling the carbon-nitrogen ratio of the system to be lower than a high-carbon operation threshold; adding N-acyl homoserine lactone signal molecules into the system; and operating the system under the condition of aeration, so as to strengthen the removal efficiency of total nitrogen in the tail water by using the regulation effect of the signal molecules on the microorganisms in the biological floc. By adding trace signal molecules, the denitrification efficiency of the biological floc system is significantly improved under the condition of low carbon, the amount of added external carbon source is greatly reduced, the operation cost is saved, the risk of secondary pollution is avoided, the method has the advantages of simple operation and easy popularization, and is suitable for upgrading and reconstruction of existing aquaculture tail water treatment facilities.
