However, perishable wastes such as restaurant waste, kitchen waste and feces have a fast hydrolysis and acidification rate, while the organic matter in residual sludge is mainly microbial intracellular substances, which has a slow hydrolysis and acidification rate, which seriously affects the co-fermentation rate of organic waste and multiple materials, resulting in problems such as long anaerobic digestion cycle, large fermentation tank area, and high investment.

[0003] The utility model utilizes the acidified liquid and biogas slurry in the anaerobic digestion system to treat the residual sludge in situ, accelerates the hydrolysis process, and simultaneously pre-treats the residual sludge and perishable waste (food waste, kitchen waste and feces, etc.) separately for anaerobic co-digestion, thereby improving the stability of the anaerobic digestion system. The utility model has the advantages of green economy, environmental friendliness, and convenience for continuous operation, and has a good application prospect. Utility Model Content

[0025] The above-mentioned combined device for anaerobic digestion pretreatment of urban organic waste has the following specific working steps:

[0026] (1) After the transport vehicle arrives, open the baffle 1-2 of the pretreatment tank 1, and dump the remaining sludge directly onto the slope 1-8. Most of the remaining sludge slides directly to the bottom of the tank. Open the drain pipe 1-2 and the drain pipe 1-3 to wash the remaining remaining sludge on the slope. Turn on the agitator 1-5, adjust the speed to 60-100 rpm, stir the materials thoroughly, and mix the remaining sludge, acidified liquid and nitrite liquid thoroughly. Control the amount of acidified liquid added to the drain pipe 1-2 to maintain the pH value at 5.0-5.5. The heating coil 1-7 installed inside the tank is preferably a steam heat source to heat the materials in the tank. The thermometer 1-6 monitors the temperature in real time and maintains the temperature at 25°C-35°C. The material residence time in the pretreatment tank 1 is 12-18h.

[0027] (2) Pretreatment tank 2 mainly receives food waste, kitchen waste, leachate and feces. After the materials arrive, the baffle 2-1 is opened, and the materials flow to the bottom of the tank along the slope 1-8. The liquid discharge pipe 3 2-2 is opened, and the slope 2-4 is flushed with biogas slurry. After all the materials reach the bottom of the tank, the baffle is closed and the agitator 2-3 is turned on to fully stir the materials. The speed of the agitator is 60 to 80 rpm.

[0028] (3) Acidification tank three mixes the pretreated material in step (1) and the pretreated material in step (2) for hydrolysis and acidification. The agitator 3-2 stirs at a speed of 60 to 80 rpm to fully mix the materials. The steam heating coil 3-3 on the inner wall of the tank heats the materials in the tank, and the thermometer 3-1 monitors in real time to maintain the material temperature at 30 to 35°C. The residence time of the materials in the acidification tank is 12 to 24 hours. Part of the materials in the acidification tank three are returned to the pretreatment tank one as acidification liquid, and most of the materials are transported to the anaerobic fermentation tank.

[0029] (4) The material after anaerobic digestion in the anaerobic fermentation tank is transported to the dehydrator 5, and the dehydrated biogas residue is used for fertilizer production. The biogas liquid flows by gravity to the biogas liquid pool 6 for temporary storage. Most of the biogas liquid is transported to the nitrite pool 7, and a small part of the biogas liquid is transported to the pretreatment pool 2.

[0030] (5) The thermometer in the nitrification tank 7 monitors the temperature of the material in the tank in real time. The steam heating coil 7-4 is installed on the inner wall of the tank to heat the material in the tank and maintain the temperature of the material in the tank in the range of 25-30°C. The nitrite nitrogen monitor 7-2 monitors the nitrite nitrogen concentration in real time.
