Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] The utility model belongs to the technical field of synthesizing single-cell protein, and more specifically relates to a reactor for efficiently converting pyrolysis gas of domestic waste into single-cell protein, and a system device including the reactor. Background Art
[0002] Pyrolysis gas from municipal solid waste is generated under oxygen-free or anoxic conditions, when the macromolecules of organic components in municipal solid waste break down, producing small gases such as H2, CO2, CO, and CH4. H2 and CO2 account for a relatively high proportion of these gases. These gases have low calorific value and are significantly affected by waste composition and pyrolysis conditions, resulting in limited practical application and low utilization efficiency. Using specialized bacterial strains to convert H2 and CO2 from municipal solid waste pyrolysis gas into single-cell proteins not only allows for direct use of the gas, reducing energy conversion and production costs, but also allows for the comprehensive utilization of the gas through microbial microbial utilization, thereby enhancing its efficiency.
[0003] Single-cell protein (SCP), also known as microbial protein or bacterial protein, is produced by culturing single-cell organisms using industrial wastewater, exhaust gas, natural gas, petroleum alkanes, agricultural and sideline products, and organic waste as culture media. After purification and drying, SCP is an important protein source for the food and feed industries. Compared to other protein sources, SCP offers advantages such as high production rates, rich nutrition, and minimal or no land use.

[0050] As another aspect of the present invention, the present invention provides a system device including the above-mentioned reactor for synthesizing single-cell protein, comprising at least two reactors 100 for synthesizing single-cell protein connected in series or in parallel.
[0051] See also Figure 2 As shown, when two or more reactors 100 for synthesizing single-cell protein are connected in series, the connection port of the first-stage reactor is connected to the feed port of the second-stage reactor through a pipeline; the connection port of the last-stage reactor is connected to the reflux port of the first stage through a pipeline.
[0052] See also Figure 3 As shown, when two or more reactors 100 for synthesizing single-cell protein are connected in parallel, the bacterial liquid enters the two-stage reactors at the same time, the bacterial liquid refluxes in each reactor, and the pyrolysis gas reacts simultaneously in the two reactors. After the reaction is completed, it is discharged from the respective liquid discharge ports and exhaust ports. This is suitable for situations where the gas volume is large.
[0053] The working principle of the utility model is as follows :
[0054] The function of the gas-liquid mixing zone in the reactor is to introduce the pyrolysis gas of domestic waste into the gas-liquid mixing zone to achieve gas-liquid mixing and to connect to the next reactor through the connecting port; wherein the gas flow rate introduced into the gas-liquid mixing zone is controlled at 0.9-1.2m 3 / h, so that the gas can be fully captured and utilized by microorganisms; the gas is decomposed into tiny bubbles through the aeration disk 50 and rises to the incremental reaction zone for reaction;
[0055] The cross section of the aeration holes in the aeration plate in the gas-liquid mixing zone is circular, equilateral triangle or parallelogram; the ratio of the aeration plate diameter to the reactor inner diameter is 0.91-0.92; the aeration hole diameter is 200-300mm, and the gas volume of a single aeration hole is 0-0.3m 3 / h, the total aeration area of the aeration holes on the aeration plate accounts for 50%-80%;
[0056] The function of the incremental reaction zone in the reactor is to add microbial liquid to the upper part of the zone to react with the rising gas to improve the conversion efficiency of H2 and CO2, and discharge the residual gas at the top of the reactor. MBBR filler fluidized bed is used in the incremental reaction zone to use the microorganisms in the reactor to carry out biological conversion of H2, CO2, NH3 and O2. The reaction is 21.36H2+6.21O2+4.09CO2+0.76NH3→C 4.09 H 7.13 O 1.89 N 0.76 +18.70H2O, generates C 4.09 H 7.13 O 1.89 N 0.76 Single cell protein as the main component;
[0057] Compared with existing single-cell protein synthesis reactors, the reactor described in the present invention has two incremental reaction zones set up in the shell. MBBR fillers are used in the incremental reaction zones to provide an environment suitable for the growth of microorganisms. The incremental reaction zones use a fluidized bed to increase the contact area between gas and microorganisms. The movement of fluid and particles makes the bed have good heat transfer performance, and the temperature inside the bed is uniform and easy to control. A diaphragm pump is connected to the bottom of the reactor to achieve self-reflux of the bacterial liquid in the reactor, eliminate the concentration gradient in the reactor, enhance the mixing uniformity of the bacterial liquid and gas, and improve the reaction efficiency.
[0058] Furthermore, a single synthesis reactor of the present invention can be connected to the gas-liquid mixing zone of other synthesis reactors through the connection port at the upper part of the gas-liquid mixing zone to form a series reactor system device, and reflux to the upper part of the first reactor at the lower side interface of the last-stage reactor to continue the reaction, thereby improving the conversion rate of H2 and CO2 in the thermal decomposition gas of domestic waste.
[0059] Furthermore, a single synthesis reactor of the present invention can also be combined with other synthesis reactors to form a parallel reactor, and reactions can be carried out separately to increase protein production.
[0060] The advantages of the utility model are that the reactors can be connected in series or in parallel, and can be flexibly changed; not only can the reactors be connected in series to form a reactor system to improve the conversion rate of H2 and CO2 in the pyrolysis gas of domestic waste, but they can also be connected in parallel to form a reactor system to increase protein production; using the system device of the utility model, the pyrolysis gas of domestic waste can be directly introduced into the reactor, and the H2 and CO2 therein can be converted into single-cell protein under the action of microorganisms.
[0061] Obviously, the above embodiments of the present invention are merely examples for the purpose of clearly illustrating the present invention and are not intended to limit the embodiments of the present invention. Those skilled in the art will readily appreciate that other variations or modifications based on the above description are possible. This list of all possible embodiments is not exhaustive. Any obvious variations or modifications arising from the technical solution of the present invention remain within the scope of protection of the present invention.
